Rebirth of the Heavenly Empress - Chapter 165
Chapter 165: Monster University
Su Huiqing left holding her cell phone.
Bai Yi didn’t continue questioning her.
Nevertheless, he started to understand some things more clearly.
Yu Shijin had evaded him for so many days, that he found it very suspicious when he first located Su Huiqing.
Su Huiqing’s age and status didn’t seem to add up.
Things really felt somewhat off.
At the beginning, he thought this was a deliberate ploy by Yu Shijin to distract him and cover up the truth.
But now…
Apart from her…
He really didn’t know of anyone who would dare speak to him in this manner, after learning his identity. Even Apollo wouldn’t dare.
“Captain Bai.” Someone was climbing up the steps and performed a standard military salute. “Upper management had requested you to thoroughly investigate this case.”
“Who requested it?” Bai Yi tugged at his cap as he glanced at the person.
“The Director of the International Association,” The person replied respectfully.
Bai Yi smirked and tucked his hands into his pocket. He turned and walked down the steps. His voice was soft and gentle. “Since he is so concerned about this matter, let him make the capture himself.”
He would not touch Green City. His lips curled up nonchalantly.
We will meet at the International Association then.
His men exchanged glances after he left.
They had no idea what was going on with their captain.
Yu Shijin and the major figures of the Chu family had all gone to the International Association.
Before leaving, Yu Shijin already instructed Superintendent Hong and the gang to adhere to Ms Su’s orders.
Su Huiqing had managed Green City very well.
After those International Association people heard that Yu Shijin had left Green City, they immediately tried to take advantage of the situation—but they all ended up being kicked back to the International Association by Su Huiqing.
The International Association folks had always been unreasonable and overbearing, relying on their immense powers.
Multiple powers have already slowly permeated all cities big and small. Green City was one of the most resource-rich cities, and many outsiders have been ogling at it with greedy eyes.
But in the end, no one dared to touch Green City.
Su Huiqing’s mission was to bring the escort guards, Yu Xiangyang and gang to seek out people from the International Association for training. Soon after, everyone from the International Association knew of this merciless independent team from Green City. From then on, no one dared to enter Green City.
Left with no other choice, this bunch of people ended up extending their claws into the surrounding cities instead.
Superintendent Hong and his team were always filled with trepidation every time they arrived to clean up the battle aftermath. They felt sorry for those International Association people.
In this way, nearly a year passed by in a blurred rush.
Su Huiqing and her gang were all accepted into Monster University.
The principal of Yi Zhong High School was shocked at this result. Even Su Huiqing was also surprised.
Anyway, all four of them were accepted.
School started on the third of November at Monster University.
The International Association was probably the ultimate dream destination for nearly everyone.
Lugging their suitcases, Yu Xiangyang and gang, as well as a whole bunch of other freshmen, all stood gaping outside the school’s grand gates.
The palm prints of three different people were imprinted right on the outside of the school gates.
Qu Yan had clearly done her homework at Monster University.
She excitedly dragged Su Huiqing forward to take a closer look. “Do you see it? These are the three most exceptional people in the history of the International Association’s University. Hurry up, let’s take a photo with their palm prints.”
With one hand in her pocket and a lazy smile on her lips, Su Huiqing allowed Qu Yan to do whatever she wanted.
But right before they left, her gaze lingered a second longer on the final palm print.
Using this body to take a photo with her own palm print.
This was a first for her.
The yearly student intake for Monster University was relatively low. Including those from the International Association itself, the number of freshmen was less than a thousand.
Su Huiqing dragged her luggage with one hand while putting on her earpiece with the other.
Apollo’s dismayed voice could be heard on the other end. “King, I have just arrived at Green City to find you already gone…”
Su Huiqing raised her brows and said in a low voice, “I remember clearly that I told you I am coming to the International Association today.”
Apollo kept silent for a few seconds before replying. “I actually forgot such an important matter!”
“I will rush over to the International Association right away.” Apollo stood up. “We will meet at the Night Bar. The one that belongs to Dugu. Do you remember it?”
Everyone knew that there was an extremely secretive intelligence agency at the International Association. Still, few knew that the primary base of that agency was the Night Bar.
The owner of the bar was Dugu.
“We’ll see.” Su Huiqing leisurely led Qu Yan toward the dormitory. She added, “Bai Yi has been monitoring me very closely and I may not be able to go.”
They arrived at the dormitory.
Su Huiqing hung up and pushed open the door. She entered, dragging her luggage.
It was a four-person bedroom.
One of their roommates was already inside when they entered. She was playing a video game with headphones on.
Qu Yan’s eyes brightened. “So there are also people from Monster University who play video games!”
There was still one more roommate who had not arrived yet.
Su Huiqing and Qu Yan chose two beds which were side by side and started laying out their belongings.
In the International Association’s University, there were people from different countries and of different ethnicities. The roommate who was playing video games was Qing Zi, a girl from Country R.
The dormitory was fully equipped, and they only had to arrange their clothes accordingly.
By this time, Qu Yan had already become fast friends with Qing Zi.
Su Huiqing leaned against the headrest of her bed with her laptop on her thighs. She read the message from Chi Yue: Captain, there is a large, ultra-secure prison on Unknown Island. I suspect Grandpa Su is there.
Su Huiqing lowered her eyes as she typed a reply: Send me the map.
Chi Yue sent her the map before messaging again: When are you coming back? It has been a year and they all miss you a lot.
Su Huiqing’s lips twitched on seeing his message.
A cool glint flashed across her eyes.
She visited the online forum of Unknown Island quite frequently.
She could feel those people had been waiting for her return.
But she couldn’t at this moment.
There were too many riddles.
Her powers were still lacking.
“Ai ai ai! Qing Zi, quickly kill him!” Qu Yan tapped viciously on her keyboard. “How dare he bully a newbie. I won’t let him off!”
The gentle-looking Qing Zi was just as aggressive at Qu Yan. “Damn, so shameless. Oh oh oh, dead again…”
“…”
Su Huiqing put on her earphones as she drew out an explosion plan.
Meanwhile, Qing Zi and Qu Yan’s video game characters had died again and again.
The two of them kept crying out in frustration.
Su Huiqing took off her earphones and walked over to Qu Yan. She placed her hands on Qu Yan’s keyboard.
After executing several outstanding moves, she quickly annihilated the enemy.
Su Huiqing took her hands off the keyboard and glanced mildly at the other two. “I say, can you two stop making a din now?”
Su Huiqing had always surpassed Qu Yan in video gaming, and she was already used to her grand moves.
Glancing sideways, she saw her enemy asking if there had been a change in players.
Qu Yan chuckled before typing: It was my father just now!
Meanwhile, Qing Zi stared at Su Huiqing with adoring eyes.
The three of them successfully became fast friends because of video games.
In the end, they stopped playing and just sat cross-legged on Su Huiqing’s bed. Su Huiqing looked at the two girls with a covert expression. “Do you know about the extremely scary military training at Monster University?”
Qu Yan’s eyes lit up. “I have searched online for a long time, but no one is saying anything. Do you know something?”
Su Huiqing indeed knew something.
But at this moment, she just gave a slight smile and tilted her head to listen to Qing Zi.
“We don’t have any basic training. The day after next will be our first group training, and we will already be using real guns and engaging in live firing during the group training.” Qing Zi’s expression was full of mystery. “Two days after that, the various instructors will lead us in different teams to a deserted island to carry out a wartime survival practice. It will last half a month.”
Qu Yan’s hand halted in mid-air as she turned toward Qing Zi. “We have a wartime survival practice?”
“Monster University pays close attention to a student’s overall development.” Qing Zi sighed. “Do you know what is Monster University most famous for?”
“What?” Qu Yan widened her eyes, full of curiosity.
Qing Zi’s expression turned serious. “Grooming a science student into a mercenary king.”
Su Huiqing, “…'”
Monster University’s orientation program was military training. It was also a survival course.
In the afternoon before the military training, their last roommate finally arrived.
Su Huiqing and the other two girls entered the dorm to see the back profile of a person clad in military gear, standing by her bed.
Meanwhile, a girl sat at the computer chair.
Monster University’s dormitory rooms were relatively spacious, but with so many people standing inside now, it felt rather crowded.
Noticing the arrival of the three girls, the person in military uniform turned and pointed at Su Huiqing’s bed. “Whose bed is this?”
“Why?” Su Huiqing raised her brows as she tucked her hands into her pocket. “Is there a problem?”
The person frowned at Su Huiqing’s question.
He had probably never met someone as bold as Su Huiqing before. “My Young Mistress doesn’t like beds situated by the door.
“Oh.” Su Huiqing smirked as she answered nonchalantly.
Qing Zi glanced worriedly at Su Huiqing before standing up and smiling. “Just as well, I happen to like being by the door. I will move over.”
“I want this very bed!” The girl sitting on the chair flung her nail scissors to the floor as she insisted on Su Huiqing’s bed.
Su Huiqing’s eyes hardened.
Flustered, Qing Zi dragged Su Huiqing aside and whispered. “They are from the International Association and are from a military family. Don’t go against them, or you will be doomed during the military training.”
