Chapter 458: Be Honest and Honest
Fortunately, on the morning of the holiday, even the students who stayed in school were unlikely to get up so early, and there were few students like Jiang Chanji who couldn't miss every breakfast, so not many people saw their strange group.
Everyone unconsciously surrounded No. 15 in the center when they walked, not to protect her, but to prevent Zhao Man from suddenly robbing her.
Zhao Man's ability left a big shadow on everyone, and Qianyang and Xiaosui even walked sideways back to back half-playfully, like two cute crabs, in case Zhao Man gave them a hand knife.
Soon arrived at the familiar auditorium, and after being briefed, they were taken to a small conference room instead of the headmaster's office because of the large number of people.
In their expectations, they thought that they were about to face the big scene of the three triages, but unexpectedly, there was only the dean in the small conference room, who was drinking tea while flipping through the paper documents in the folder while waiting.
The head of the academy glanced up at them, closed the folder and said, "Ladies and gentlemen of the Ninja Academy, I know that you are in a hurry to meet the Sect Master, but the Sect Master has been undergoing a regular physical examination last night, and she is seriously lacking sleep, so it is not appropriate to disturb her last night, so I semi-forcibly let you stay in the student dormitory for one night, and I apologize here." ”
No. 15 is the body of the guilty, and No. 22 has the highest serial number, and automatically becomes the representative of the three, and said: "You are too polite, with the secret assistance of your school, we were able to safely find the sect master, and we also understand your school's concerns, so you don't have to explain so much." ”
The head of the academy nodded, "Okay, then I'll save the politeness." You are a guest, and now you are free to come and go, if you want, you can go to see the sect master now, the school hospital has just reported that the sect master has gotten up. ”
No. 33 couldn't wait for a long time, and when she heard the words, she turned around and wanted to leave, but as soon as her body moved, she found that No. 22 was not moving, so she stopped abruptly.
No. 22 glanced at Catherine, Luisa, and Layla, and asked, "Excuse me, will it be inconvenient for your school if we stay for the time being?"
No. 22 is a few years older and has a greater sense of the big picture, she is completely unaware of the "passage" as a middle ninja, and she will be promoted to upper ninja in the future, but her ability is not a combat type, and she may not be able to touch more things. Now the head of the academy may explain some things to Jiang Chanji and them, and it is a rare opportunity, it would be better if he could stay and observe.
In addition, if she and No. 33 escorted No. 15 to the school hospital, she was worried that she would be lonely and might be robbed by Zhao Man, so it was better to wait for the matter here to be over, and go to the school hospital with others by the way, anyway, Jiang Chanji and they would definitely go to visit Li Muqin.
If the Momiji Academy minds them to observe, if they don't mind, there's no reason why Catherine, Layla, and Luisa, who are also outsiders, can observe and ninjas can't.
"Not really, you are guests, and you are free to move around except in the forbidden areas of the school. The head of the house said, and looked at Catherine and them, "The same is true of the three. ”
Catherine, Layla, and Luisa looked at each other, no one moved, they made up their minds to accompany them to the end, because the next thing is nothing more than two situations, one is that the dean of the academy authoritatively forced Jiang Chanji to keep it secret, and not to reveal more things in addition, and the other is that even if Jiang Chanji and they have seen the "channel", there is no point in concealing it, instead of letting them guess, simply explain the situation openly and honestly, so that they understand the necessity of confidentiality, so as to spontaneously keep secrets.
In either case, there's nothing to lose by waiting a little longer.
The dean said, "Feel free to sit down, everybody. ”
Everyone sat down one after another, and even the 15th found a place to sit down.
No. 22 can finally relax a little, although she doesn't know what the dean's ability is, but she doesn't believe that Zhao Man has the ability to snatch No. 15 from the dean's eyes, and that shame is the Red Leaf Academy.
"What do you all know about the 'Passage'?" the Dean of the House began with a question.
Except for what they saw with their own eyes, everything Jiang Chanji knew about the "passage" was told by Aurora and Luisa, but they knew very little about the "passage" itself.
After they told the truth, the head of the academy nodded slightly, "Actually, we don't know much about the 'passage', just a little more than you. ”
Next, the head of the academy talked about the discovery process of the "passage", the gradual expansion and frequency of the "passage", and now the addition of the respiratory effect.
Everyone held their breath and listened very carefully, for fear that they would miss a word, after listening, they felt that even the three views had been subverted, and the daily life of ordinary people and the disputes between the country seemed to have become meaningless, because the "channel" was the most unpredictable major threat to the world, and no one knew what would happen after the "channel" continued to expand, and the claws of the giant beast they saw with their own eyes made them shudder.
It is unimaginable that when they enjoyed the same daily life as ordinary people but did not know how to cherish it, there were many people who risked their lives to confront unknown threats, and in order to avoid causing panic among the public, they had to carefully keep secrets.
The original intention of secrecy was not to hide the truth from the public, but because there is no way to solve the matter once and for all, so what is the use of telling the truth to the public?
Of course, it may be useful in some cases, when the "passage" appears in a densely populated area, and if the public is informed, the men will not stupidly take pictures and watch but just run away...... Of course, whether you can run away or not is another matter, because everyone will definitely want to run at that time, and often the more you want to run, the more you can't run, and it is conceivable that you will trample on each other and paralyze traffic.
However, there is no precedent for the "channel" to appear in densely populated areas, so there is also a debate among insiders about whether the truth should be made public, and if the world order collapses because of the truth, it will bring greater resistance to the confrontation with the "channel".
For example, those men in black, in fact, most of them don't know what they are doing, they just think they are participating in some kind of special live-fire exercise, and if they know the truth, they will understand that this is not a drill, but a war that can die at any time, and the psychological burden brought to them and the efficiency of executing orders are completely different, if the outside world order collapses, they are concerned about the safety of their families, and they have no intention of fighting.
Now where something happens, those in the know can arrive as soon as possible by various means of transportation, and what equipment is needed, such as monocular sights, can be ordered immediately, and once the world order really collapses, these have become extravagant hopes.
The dean of the academy said these things openly and honestly, so that the people present understood the bitterness of their choice to keep secrets, and in many cases, secrecy does not bring benefits or superiority to those who know, but is a burden and responsibility.
Layla now knows the truth, but she imagines that if she told the secret of the "passage", everything she has now, family, privileges, money, status...... Will all these things she was accustomed to disappear or shuffle in any way other than to enjoy the shock of the listener when she told the secret?
She peeked at her cousin, no wonder Aurora kept her mouth shut tightly when she knew some fur, and if it were her, she would be tight-lipped...... Not only that, if she knew who dared to talk about the "passage" everywhere, she wouldn't be the first to spare that person!
Her mentality is very representative, most of the people who know the secret at present are in high positions, even if they do not consider the interests of the public but consider their own interests, they will tacitly choose to keep secrets.
Layla, the most unruly of those present, was still like this, and the others had no intention of telling the secret.
Whether it is for justice or self-interest, secrecy is a safer option than the great uncertainty that comes with making the truth public.
In addition, when Layla hears that the source energy near the "passage" is more abundant, her mind is a little lively, and it is dangerous to get close to the "passage", but it is also a little sweet.
Even Luisa, who knew something about the "passage", listened attentively, and the head of the academy was full of science and reason, not comparable to the superstitious legends of the tribe.
Catherine's mood is very complicated, after returning yesterday, her mobile phone has not been confiscated, she can make calls, she can surf the Internet, and she also wants to get in touch with the monastery to ask about the "passage", but in the end she still forcibly pressed it, if there is a chance in the future, it is better to ask the head of the house in person.
She didn't contact Arabella either, because the latter was blind and had lived on Mount Aare for a long time, so it was inconvenient to use a mobile phone, and she didn't have the habit of using a mobile phone, so she also waited until she met her sister.
The students, including Jiang Chanji, were shocked but also wanted to know the teachers' experience of fighting against the "channel", especially after witnessing the tremendous destructive power caused by Li Muqin yesterday.
If it is replaced by the old man who shakes a fan on the side of the street, a little glorious deeds can be blown for three days and three nights, but the head of the academy has no intention of boasting about anything, and these are just passing by.
"Well, that's all we know about the 'Passage', and more of that is based on unfounded speculation, and there's no point in saying it, because it's probably wrong, and there's no need to mislead you. The dean ended the long story, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and asked, "Are there any other questions?"
Layla, Luisa, Catherine, and the ninjas knew that they were answering questions to their students, and that outsiders were not qualified to ask questions even if they had questions.
Jiang Chanji and the others had too many questions, but after careful consideration, most of these questions belonged to the category of "unfounded speculation" referred to by the head of the academy, and even if they were asked, it would be meaningless.
Seeing that the others didn't speak, Aurora raised her hand and asked, "Dean, I have a question. ”
"Just ask. The dean said.
Aurora politely stood up and said, bowing before speaking, "I'm really sorry, I was too curious before, and I secretly did some investigation, and I didn't mean to snoop on the school's secrets. ”
"What investigation?" the head of the house didn't mean to be angry.
Aurora plucked up her courage," I found that there are some of the top graduates, especially the previous TOP3 graduates, some of them disappeared after graduation, neither stayed in school as teachers, nor did they enter the broader society to make great achievements, and disappeared without a trace like the evaporation of the world, such as the class of Mr. Li Muqin, Mr. Li and Mr. Wang Yefei were included in the TOP3 outstanding graduates, and the two of them stayed in the school to teach, and the whereabouts of the chief graduates of that class are unknown...... What I want to ask is, is there some connection to the 'channel', and if so, please don't mind. ”
Jiang Chanji heard Aurora say it once in the depression, but at that time, Aurora was in a hurry, and Aurora just said a word or two like a dragonfly, and this time it was very detailed.
The first thought in their minds was that they really deserved to be Aurora, and they wouldn't care about the previous outstanding graduates, because they felt that they didn't have a chance with them anyway.
They are not mistaken, Aurora usually looks approachable, but she is still very proud in her heart, especially during the period when she first entered the school, as soon as she entered the school, she became the object of the stars, both in ability and academic ability, she has to be a little proud, right?
At that time, Aurora was full of ambition, and felt that Red Leaf Academy was nothing more than that, and it was not difficult for her to graduate as the chief outstanding graduate in three years, and the slightly challenging thing was whether she could be ranked as the chief of the previous chiefs?
Guan Gongzhan Qin Qiong was bored, he wanted to know how capable he was, just check how strong the previous chief graduates were, find out their identities and what they are currently doing, and then find a way to investigate their current strength, and reverse speculation can almost guess how strong they are when they graduate.
I don't know if I don't check the results, and I let her find out some small problems that others don't realize when I check them, and it's no problem for her to get the student roster of the year, but when she went to check the previous TOP3 students one by one according to their names, she found that some of them seemed to have evaporated from the world, and even if she used a private detective, she couldn't find any clues.
She has checked the academic performance of these TOP3 graduates, many of them are not worse than her, and their grades in terms of ability cannot be found, but they will certainly not be bad, it stands to reason that no matter where these people go, they will never be oblivious to everyone and will never be buried.
If it was just an example, it would be fine, but she counted that there were quite a few people who disappeared like this, and it was by no means an exception. At that time, she buried this question in her heart, and after learning about the "passage", and knowing that the dean and teachers often secretly went out to fight against the "passage", she naturally thought of those outstanding graduates who disappeared.
Taking the opportunity of the dean of the academy to be open and honest, she didn't want to hold it anymore.
