I Have a Dice Left by a God
Chapter 481 - 73: A Windfall from Heaven
"Meeting, Black Rose’s meeting, we are the core and pillar of the Mysterious Canon Law School, there are many things going on, the old man Bai values you a lot and insists you be there, since you didn’t come, we delayed the meeting to the afternoon. That’s why I’m here to find you—I guessed you’d be at Night Patrol," said Lu Shuai.
"Give me a moment, let me hand over the case." Li Xin nodded.
"Alright, I’ll wait for you. By the way, Tang Yinxiao doesn’t have a boyfriend, right?" Lu Shuai asked with some persistence.
"I’m not sure, I’m not very familiar with her." Li Xin shook his head.
"Come on~~ You guys are at least colleagues, help me ask around." Lu Shuai shook Li Xin’s arm back and forth.
"Damn, I still want to stay alive. You better think about it carefully, and I don’t think she’s into men," Li Xin said disgustedly as he quickly shook off Lu Shuai. Tang Yinxiao is a real tough person, this is not a joke, and he’s genuinely worried that Lu Shuai might get himself into trouble.
In Jiang Jinxiao’s absence, Li Xin took the finished report and went to Tang Yinxiao’s room and knocked on the door.
"Come in." Tang Chendan’s cold voice sounded.
Li Xin pushed the door open, placed the report on the table without saying much, "Tang Yinxiao, this is my investigation report, could you please pass it to Captain Jiang for me?"
Tang Chendan’s eyes, as clear as autumn water, skimmed over the investigation report and nodded.
"Thank you then." Li Xin didn’t say more, immediately left, but just as he reached the door, Tang Chendan’s voice echoed, "Li Yinxiao, Shadow Owl is not a place for fooling around, keep irrelevant people away in the future."
Li Xin shut the door, touched his nose, Lu Shuai, oh Lu Shuai, I’m still an outsider at Shadow Owl, always causing trouble.
Li Xin decisively dragged Lu Shuai, who was about to bid farewell, away. This guy truly doesn’t know the extent of danger. Tang Yinxiao is definitely someone who means what she says, and if she didn’t take action, it’s only because he’s a descendant of the Grand Governor, but once her patience runs out, she could easily poison him.
In the carriage, Lu Shuai still felt a bit regretful, because Miss Tang was the most feminine woman he’d ever seen, with a faint sadness about her, which made people feel sorry for her. The elegance and beauty of Beijing women were most thoroughly reflected in her, and that coldness and stubbornness made Lu Shuai fall in love at first sight, unable to stop himself.
"Stop thinking about it, love at first sight is just attraction to one’s appearance." Li Xin didn’t doubt Lu Shuai’s affection, but it completely conflicted with his personality and goals.
On the rational side, Lu Shuai was more sober than Li Xin, of course he knew, "Brother Li, what’s up with that kid, looks dazed and confused."
"Family of a Night Patrol member, parents died during a mission, and he got involved, soul lost." Li Xin’s heart sank as well.
Lu Shuai frowned, "That’s going to be difficult."
"Difficult or not, it has to be done," Li Xin replied.
"Night Patrol’s work is really dangerous, and the pay is too low, being a Law Enforcer is not a path for people," Lu Shuai sighed.
Li Xin smiled slightly, "Everyone has their destiny."
"Haha, maybe one day I’ll be the boss, and then I’ll definitely improve Night Patrol’s benefits, at least improve the treatment for their families, poor child. Honestly, the blessing that Governor Luthor left behind so long ago, the only ones sticking to their original intentions are the Canon Law School and Night Patrol."
In the office, Tang Chendan gazed at the report in her hands, originally casual, her eyes gradually turned serious, reading to the final conclusion, she thought for a moment, stood up, and put on Night Patrol’s coat.
"Meng Po, inform Captain Jiang to meet at the Metropolitan’s place."
"Yes, Tang Yinxiao." Meng Po didn’t dare delay, immediately released a Messenger, a pitch-black Shadow Owl shot through the air like an arrow.
Li Xin and Lu Shuai returned to the Canon Law School, in the Mysterious Black Rose Base, Bai Peng, Sutler, Zhuo Yan, Huerta, and other members were all in heated discussion, excited, probably never dreaming such a big opportunity would fall from the sky, directly onto their table.
"Chairman, we’re back," Lu Shuai asked, "what good thing happened?"
Bai Peng looked at Lu Shuai and nodded, gesturing for him to sit down, still unable to hide his excitement, "Brother Li, big event, Celestial Principle School wants to change the venue of Mordo Dean’s first Canon Law School lecture to our Mysterious Canon Law School, Moon God above, I thought I was hallucinating, even our Dean Chen is too thrilled to find direction, haha."
Lu Shuai couldn’t help but laugh, "Chairman, it’s not April Fools’ Day, don’t kid us."
Bai Peng shook his head, a face full of seriousness, "I’m not joking. Celestial Principle School’s scholars are still talking to the principal, they’ve been talking for some time, seemingly working out some details."
"Could it be the second lecture?" Lu Shuai wondered aloud.
"It’s not the second time, Old Chen’s secretary is my aunt, she secretly told me it’s the first time, that’s why Old Chen is overjoyed, like he’s 18 again, a pure stroke of luck." Bai Peng said.
"Are we competing with Divine Revelation?"
"What competition, if they had chosen Divine Revelation they wouldn’t have come to us, there’s no competition at all, Celestial Principle School came specifically for us, our Canon Law School must possess some traits!"
"Chairman, could it be destiny?" Surt laughed.
Bai Peng slapped his thigh, "Exactly, we’re chosen by destiny!"
"This is fantastic news," Lu Shuai said in shock, "wasn’t it already set for Divine Revelation Canon Law School? This could still change, did the Dean do something?"
"Not sure, probably not, if Old Chen had the ability to change Divine Revelation Canon Law School, he wouldn’t be a Dean here. I think those at Divine Revelation are more dumbfounded. I was even considering pulling strings to secure a seat there, and now they already set up everything, Celestial Principle School suddenly changed their mind, it’s simply incredible, I can even imagine Nalan and their expressions, haha." Bai Peng said, "I feel like since Brother Li came, our Mysterious Canon Law School’s luck improved a bit. Brother Li, you might not know, Celestial Principle School originated from Hedan’s sect, but it fits particularly well with us, also embracing part of Governor Luthor’s ideas. Now here in Dragon Capital, we have the Hundred Martial Hall for martial arts, and Celestial Principle Study for literature, having the greatest influence."
"Indeed, it’s worth celebrating," Li Xin nodded.
Bai Peng rubbed his hands vigorously, "Hope everything goes smoothly, they’re still talking, and we’ll know the accurate news later, Moon God above, shine your light upon our Mysterious Canon Law School just once, please."
At this moment, a particularly well-dressed carrier pigeon wearing a pink little vest flew in through the window and landed on Bai Peng’s shoulder. The pigeon nodded to Bai Peng, who couldn’t hide his delight, took out a shiny Gold Lira and slipped it to the pigeon, which gripped it with its beak, happily flapped its wings, performed a graceful midair bow, and flew away with the Gold Lira in its beak.
Everyone looked at Bai Peng eagerly, Li Xin watched the pigeon longingly, wishing for a moment to become one, he could hover too, and bow.
Bai Peng punched the air vigorously, "Brothers, it’s done!"
Instantly, Black Rose erupted in a round of cheers and shouts. The recent shadow from the martial arts test over Mysterious was suddenly turned into a blessing, especially since this was akin to defeating Divine Revelation Academy, it was a morale booster for every Canon Law School student.
"Chairman, by hosting this lecture, our academy’s rating this year is stable, and it can cement our spot as the number one in Celestial Principle Study!"
"Haha, let’s see who dares say that our Celestial Principle Study isn’t as good as Divine Revelation, I wonder if those from Divine Revelation will come to plead with me, hahahaha, now the problem is theirs!" Bai Peng laughed, having even thought about bowing positions for the next few days, suddenly found himself standing tall again.
