Ace Of Terrans-Chapter 309 Teacher?
Shi Lang moved through the school building and attracted the attention of a lot of students as he walked through the corridors before he stood in front of the principal office. This was the second time he had visited this place and the atmosphere was a complete contrast from what it was in the past.
He mumbled, “Seems like General is more jolly than Stevenson.”
He knocked on the door and a voice sounded, “Come in.”
Shi Lang pushed the door open and found the former first general sitting behind a big mahogany desk, operating a holocomp. He raised his head and was surprised to look at the young man standing in front of him. He asked, “What brings you here?” 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮
Shi Lang did not go to sit down on the chair and said after closing the door behind him, “I want to be a teacher.”
The expression on the face of the first general changed from confused to stunned in a blink. He asked, “What did you just say? Repeat it for me again?”
Shi Lang said in a clear and slow tone, “I want to be a teacher. What will it take for me to be one?”
General Edwards sighed and said, “Do you think it will be so easy? Teaching is not Army where you pass the assessment and get to play. This is a long-term thing, and a teacher is someone responsible for the future of the students under him. Do you know there are no bad students but…”
Before the man could finish speaking, Shi Lang said, “Only bad teachers. Do you think I will be that bad of a teacher? Well, you have the right to be suspicious, I do not have much to show in this field. However, look at my face as the star of the federation and give me a temporary job.”
General Edwards shook his head and said, “You have the gall to call yourself the star of the federation, and that too after you canceled that award ceremony everyone was waiting for? You are the problem child. How dare you shove your butler bot in the front to manage the fleet and sit back in the shadows?”
Shi Lang chuckled sheepishly and said, “We can hold the award ceremony after the footage from the galactic showdown is edited and passed to the public. As for me being in shadows, old man it was a fair deal you made with me back when I was almost assassinated, do you understand? Do you want to go back on your promise? Fine, I will go see the old president for this.”
He directly shut down the old man and turned around to walk out of the room. General Edwards knew that the president will agree to what Shi Lang asked and he will be asked why could he not handle such an easy thing on his own. He said, “Stop!”
Shi Lang smirked and turned around he got this job in his pocket. The old man said, “I can give you a temporary job, but you will be in charge of the problem children we have in the place now. Do you agree?”
The young man heard it and then he nodded, he was not expecting to be given the alpha class from the get-go but he did not think that the old man was going to shove him in the mud directly. But beggars can’t be choosers, so he had to take on this task.
He was not worried about the children he had to teach, he was worried about the excuse he would come up with to stay here when asked by the Cabinet. After all, he was the highest-ranking officer and this sort of behavior was not followed by the rest of his cohort.
After receiving an appointment letter, Shi Lang left the principal office and was asked to report the day after as they arrange for all the children to be in his class. The young man made his way out of the school but not before greeting the security guard and telling him about his job. The latter was shocked as Shi Lang walked away.
When he reached home, he found his elders to be dancing around the small child. He smiled but did not ask them anything about what was going on. Amelia beckoned him over with a smile. Shi Lang walked closer and she asked, “Where have you been?”
Shi Lang candidly replied, “Job Hunt.”
Amelia was surprised and asked, “What do you mean?”
Shi Lang gazed at her and said, “I went to the academy and found myself a job as a temporary teacher.” ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦
Amelia was shocked, and the rest of the people were also shocked. They did not expect this guy to be so impulsive. Shi John asked, “What do you mean? Please tell me that you are not joking.”
Shi Lang nodded and showed him the digital appointment letter and said, “Old man Edward is sitting on the principal chair now. He did not let me have it easy. Gave me the error class.”
Amelia read the letter and was surprised about it. But the more she thought the more she understood, it was a test for Shi Lang, despite being the ace soldier, he did not have much to show up for his ability to teach anyone. While at the same time, Shi Lang was given a chance off from the battlefield.
Shi Lang did say anything, he took the time while the family was busy discussing his new profession, he checked Tao and collected her hair to track her origins. He wanted to check where were her parents. The Federation had made it mandatory for the people to get the data of the infants to be registered in the citizen data, as soon as they were born.
Shi Lang collected the hair sample and left home once again to visit his old classmate’s home. The motive was to ask his mother to help him track down this sample. He wanted to keep this thing away from the scrutiny of the populace because he will need to state his identity at the desk and that would be troublesome.
He did not wish to attract this much attention to himself.
