Chapter 45: Isn't There Any Condition?
"You're a human chosen by the headmaster, and we'll have time to talk about something in the future. Bai Qing got up from the office chair, sat on the sofa next to him and said, "Mr. Lu, please take a seat." ”
Lu Yi had been standing at the desk for a long time, and he had not rested all the way from the Ding District, so his legs were indeed a little sore, and of course Bai Qing asked him to sit down at this time, so Lu Yi sat opposite Bai Qing unceremoniously.
Bai Qing picked up the teapot and said, "Tea?"
"I'm a little thirsty. Lu Yi smacked his lips and said: "The tea is hot and bitter, and it is difficult to quench my thirst, so I just drink water." ”
"Mr. Lui is really different. Bai Qing smiled, picked up the kettle and poured a glass of boiled water, put it in front of Lu Yi, and said, "I understand a little why the principal chose you." ”
"Why?" Lu Yi said as he uncovered the lid of the cup and set it aside, wanting the water temperature to cool down quickly and quench his thirst.
Bai Qing poured himself tea and said, "I let you stand in the office for so long, why don't you say a word about it?"
"It's been a long time. Lu Yi stretched his legs comfortably and said, "Now I should be regarded as your subordinate, right? ”
"That's what sets you apart from everyone else. Bai Qing picked up the teacup, rubbed his slender fingers and said, "Do you think it is possible for me to let that Donald, or Zhang Jianfei and Yuan Han stand like this?"
"I don't know about Zhang Jianfei and Donald. Lu Yi thought for a while and said, "But with Yuan Han's temper, it's unlikely." ”
Bai Qing looked at him with a smile and said, "This should be the reason why the principal chose you, I'm afraid there will never be a second person like you in the inner courtyard." ”
Lu Yi understood the meaning of Bai Qing's words, and said, "Is this considered me who was chosen because I had no temper?"
"Mr. Lu, this is not as simple as a temper, the difference between you and those people is that you can put down your body. Bai Qing covered his hands with a hot teacup and muttered, "This is very important, there are many things in the future that require you to act as an intermediary, to compromise with the monsters on behalf of the human race, or to persuade the human beings on behalf of the monster to let them compromise." ”
"Why is it always human beings who compromise?"
"The headmaster is a very soft-hearted man. Bai Qing took a sip of hot tea and said, "You should have seen the assistant next to the principal, right?"
"Zhou Tai?"
"Yes, the elves were originally a very powerful race, strictly speaking, they are not humans and they are not monsters, so even if they live in the demon world, there are almost no monsters who recognize them, and under this environment of strong enemies, the elves quickly declined, and because of their delicate skins, there was a trend of raising elves for ** thousands of years ago. Bai Qing raised his eyebrows and said, "They should have been wiped out or become the playthings of those big families, but it was the Lord Principal who took pity on them and brought them into the protection of the Silver Cross Academy. ”
Lu Yi didn't expect that behind that beautiful man, there was such a tragic story, what is Zhou Tai now?
"The headmaster of the Silver Cross Academy, the teacher of more than eighty percent of the family patriarchs in existence, has an assistant rating of only D. Bai Qing sarcastically said mercilessly: "In order to save those elves, Lord Principal forcibly replaced his assistant with that guy, and also named him Zhou Tai in Chinese. ”
"You don't have to be so side-tapping, it's hard to understand what you mean from your words, and I've never liked to use my brain. Lu Yi didn't want to play dumb riddles with Bai Qing anymore, and said, "Say whatever you want to say." ”
"Mr. Lu, I appreciate you more and more, I believe that in the future, whether it is a human or a monster, those old immortals will have a headache when they see you. Bai Qing lowered his hands and said in a Ling Ran tone: "What I want to say is that the headmaster is a very soft-hearted person, but I am not, I will not make any concessions to humans, the headmaster knows my temperament, so he chose you." ”
Lu Yi asked, "What do you want me to do?"
"The President has devoted his life to the Racial Integration Program, but he already feels that he is in the dark and will not have the opportunity to see the day of racial integration, and in the 100th year of the President, I will be the next President of the Silver Cross Academy, and you will become the representative of humanity in the Silver Cross Academy, and the integration will be completed in your hands and me. Bai Qing's voice became more and more slow and heavy, and at the end it was almost word for word: "So, I hope you can help me fight for more rights for youkai in the future." ”
Lu Yi quietly listened to Bai Qing's request and asked, "So...... Are you trying to betray humanity?"
"Yes. Bai Qing replied very simply.
Lu Yi looked at Bai Qing directly, and after a while, seeing that Bai Qing did not mean to continue, he finally understood that the word "yes" was already Bai Qing's answer.
"I lived in the human world for a while as a child. Bai Qing recalled that past and said with regret: "I have to admit that compared to human beings, we are too far behind, and the principal should have already told you his thoughts." ”
"What do you mean by your thoughts?"
"Take over the power and unify the loose yokai families under the management of the Silver Cross Academy. Bai Qing revealed his ambition: "This will be a painful process, and it is bound to suffer a great backlash, and today you went to District D and saw that the group of garbage that the principal had high hopes for cannot form a force to fight against these traditional families, so I need your help very much, and you will help me accomplish this great cause." ”
"Chairman Bai......" Lu Yi was slightly shocked by Bai Qing's future blueprint, and said, "You want me to sell the interests of mankind to help you...... But do you think about it? First of all, I'm a human being. ”
Lu Yi's implication is very obvious, why should I help you?
Bai Qing stared at Lu Yi's eyes and said, "You have to help me." ”
What kind of truth is this? Lu Yi felt that the conversation between the two was a bit wrong, and said with a strange expression: "Are you finished......?" Isn't there any conditions?"
"What conditions do you want?" Bai Qing asked as if he was waiting for Lu Yi to say this.
"Nonsense, no one ...... if there is no condition" Lu Yi subconsciously wanted to say that classic dialogue, and quickly stopped.
Bai Qing ignored Lu Yi's answer, and then said, "Of course, before that, you have to support me to become the next principal of the Silver Cross Academy. ”
"Chairman Bai, to be honest...... I'm leaning more towards Kinoshita now. Lu Yi didn't care about the sensitivity of this topic at all, and said directly.
"Do you think Kinoshita Nagafeng is more suitable to be the headmaster?"
"It's not a question of fit. Lu Yi picked up the water cup, took a sip of warm water, calmed down and said, "I'm just more inclined to him now." ”
"And?" Bai Qing felt that Lu Yi's words were only half of what he said.
"And, no, what's more?" Lu Yi thought to himself, wasn't what I just said a complete sentence?
No more follow-up?
Bai Qing was stunned, he thought that Lu Yi said that he was more supportive of Kinoshita Changfeng at this time, just to elevate himself, as a means of sitting on the ground and raising prices, Bai Qing had long expected that Lu Yi would have such a hand, so he waited for Lu Yi to make his own conditions, but he didn't expect that Lu Yi didn't follow his own ideas at all, or that the two were not on the same channel from the beginning, and he wanted Lu Yi to help him do so many things.
Bai Qing felt that things were starting to develop in a direction that he couldn't control, and reluctantly smiled: "Then what?"
"Didn't I say it clearly enough?" Lu Yi scratched the back of his head strangely, Bai Qing didn't have the ability to understand at all, and said again: "So I support Minister Kinoshita now." ”
"What if...... It's because of the interception that day......" Bai Qing pursed his lips slightly, showing his current anxiety: "I apologize." ”
If anyone in this academy hears this sentence, they will first wonder if they are dreaming, that Bai Qing, who has a transcendent position in the academy and acts in a stubborn manner, can actually hear the words of apology from his mouth, as long as it is someone who knows Bai Qing or knows or has heard of Bai Qing, when has he heard of him once said sorry to? Who will Bai Qing apologize to? In addition to the headmaster, the old wolf king and the earl may barely have this qualification.
But Lu Yi didn't know anything about all this, he was like a stunned young man, although he knew that it should not be easy for Bai Qing to say this sorry, but he was still unmoved and said: "Chairman Bai, I'm not such a cautious person, that time it was Minister Kinoshita who saved me, you also saved me once in the Heavenly Palace yesterday, I don't mean favoritism, I just think that I hope Minister Kinoshita can be this principal more than you." ”
"Why?" Bai Qingqiang said with a smile: "Kinoshita Changfeng has that temperament, do you think he can be qualified for the position of principal?"
Lu Yi remembered Kinoshita Changfeng's ruffian appearance, which really didn't look like a principal, but still said: "You also said that people always change, Donald can be racially prejudiced for my position, and Minister Kinoshita should be able to change his temper." ”
"What I want to know is the reason. Bai Qing said in a condensed voice.
Haven't I been saying the reason? Lu Yi wrinkled his brows in embarrassment, trying to say his words as concisely as possible.
"Let's put it this way...... Lu Yi spread his hands and said: "I think it's too much pressure to be with you, I don't really want to participate in what you said, or I don't really agree with your point of view, in comparison, Minister Kinoshita shouldn't have so many things for me to do." ”
......
......
Bai Qing silently put the teacup on the table, and said in silence for a long time: "Mr. Lu...... Isn't there any conditions?"
