Chapter 26: People fear fame, pigs fear strength

  In school, the student dormitory and security department is a very special place, with not much power but many people to manage; three or four thousand students, from quarrels and fights to random posting and drawing, including romance and eating, drinking, and using the bathroom, all cannot avoid the intervention of the security department. Don't be surprised, nowadays university students may not necessarily excel in their studies, but there are plenty who are out of the ordinary, some even talk about love and move in together before graduation and have kids, or disappear for a month or two without a trace, with parents crying and searching for them at the door, if the security department doesn't intervene, it's not doing its job.

  These are minor issues, but what's worrying is that these small mistakes might lead to a big problem. At this moment, it belongs to such a troublesome situation. In the office of the head of the Security Department, Kou Guoping was scratching his sparse hair, and his shiny forehead was covered with oil, indicating that Director Kou had encountered a very annoying thing. Just now, he had just sent away Huang Jianqiang, the director of the Physical Education Department, who came to take back Ma San Yang, a mischievous student from his department. This student was the one who posted the big-character poster, and was caught by the Security Department through surveillance, reprimanded, and then taken back by his department to write a self-criticism, awaiting further action.

  This isn't the main issue, you have to admire the students' spontaneous organization is quite tight, Ma San Yang's planning talent is what makes Director Gou most headache, on the desk paper heavily scribbled with several "Dan Yong" names, with strokes and drawings, it's clear that handling this matter is very tricky. The school tends to cold-shoulder this matter, after all, it reflects logistical management problems, which can't be expanded. However, for Gou Guo Ping, they can't help but quickly handle this matter, the day of the strike lost tens of thousands, and for several days afterwards didn't recover to normal, couldn't guess how many people had meals, the cafeteria was in a dilemma, doing it or not doing it wasn't an option, losing money for several days made Big Brother unable to eat, kept running to his sister's place, inevitably asking his brother-in-law to help think of a solution.

  Everyone in the school knows that there are not a few people who wear the same pants as the security department and the cafeteria. This special place, no matter which class teacher, department head or even department, will give some face to each other, because everyone can't help but sometimes speak for students who have been caught by the security department for being mischievous. The cafeteria has been operating for many years without any major incidents, and even if there are some problems reflected, they are either suppressed by the department or the school. A large-scale strike like this is really unprecedented.

  With Guo Ping's idea, they now have a grasp on the situation. The two people summoned by the physical education department are determined to be single-handedly responsible for the riot. This matter can be resolved by making an example of the ringleader and intimidating others. However, it's slightly troublesome that... Guo Kezhang is being lenient again. This student isn't a good kid; he once even beat up a teacher. This matter can't be taken lightly; if they're going to nail him, they can't give him any chance to turn the tables. As long as they pin it on him, the school will have no choice but to handle it, and things will become relatively easier.

  Just then, a knock at the door was heard, and Chen Xiangming from the administrative department entered. This little mustache is the youngest son of the old director of the administrative department. He hadn't even finished his probation yet, but he worked very hard. As soon as he came in, he reported: "Director Gu, I've brought the person."

  "Oh, I see. So you haven't been in contact with anyone, right?" Guo Guoping asked, repeatedly warning him to keep it a secret and absolutely not let the local students have any chance of gathering together.

  "No." Chen Xiangming shook his head and continued in a flattering tone, "This kid is having an easy time, he was chatting with a girl in the library, we brought him back directly. Oh right, Director Gou, we also brought that girl back."

  "What's going on here? What are you doing with a girl?" Kou Kaito was displeased, lit a cigarette and scolded his subordinate.

  "Section Chief, aren't you going to warn us that this kid has many friends and we should be on our guard? I'm afraid the woman will leak the news! Now in the training room, Xiaoye is watching him closely, not even giving him a chance to make a phone call. With one swift move, he's been caught and his parents have been notified to come pick him up."

  This little nine-to-five is not bad, it's hard to reason with a student who doesn't regret his mistakes, but it's easier to talk to parents. Chen Xiangming's little nine-to-five is not bad, Kou Kechang thought for a moment, was stunned, and didn't expect this young man to be so clever and thoughtful. He stood up and waved his hand: "Alright, you're doing well, I'll talk to him, don't let anyone else in, if someone comes looking for me, just block them."

  "Alright, no problem." Chen Xiangming nodded and smiled. He opened the door for the section chief and left.

  However, this section chief was experienced and had a broad perspective. Even though he had figured out the student's situation, he still hadn't made up his mind on how to handle it. He paced back and forth in the narrow corridor of the security office, thinking about the best way to deal with it. Occasionally, he would glance at the training room where Dan Yong and a female student were sitting calmly behind the desk, unlike other students who would become flustered as soon as they entered the security office, either trembling with fear or speaking incoherently.

  The more this kind of student, Guo Ping knew the harder to deal with, after a while, Director Guo was still patrolling around, thinking...

  ……………………

  ……………………

  In the training room, Dan Yong and Zuo Xiying sat side by side, as if waiting for a romantic candlelight dinner to begin. Zuo Xiying, who had never experienced anything like this before, was extremely curious and not afraid of what this small non-specialized institution could do.

  Occasionally looking around, the white wall, iron-wood table, and simple chair seemed like an interrogation room in a third-rate movie that hadn't been decorated yet. The young man sat opposite them, staring at her and Danyong with a fierce gaze, as if he was afraid they would escape. All of this was so different from the strong academic atmosphere she had seen in the library, it made Zuo Xiying feel curious and want to ask questions several times, but she was suppressed by the solemn atmosphere.

  "May... may I talk to him?" Zuo Xiying finally couldn't hold it in, pointing at Shan Yong and asking the security personnel opposite her.

  "It's okay, but no phone calls for now." The security officer was mindful of his manner and also mindful of his demeanor in front of the beautiful woman. After all, this wasn't a dictatorship, so some freedom had to be given.

  Zuo Xiying smiled and nodded in approval, then turned around to look at Shan Yong with a surprised expression, and asked teasingly: "This place, do you come here often?"

  "Ah, just dropping by for a visit." Shuang Yu said. Zuo Xiying smiled, knowing what he meant, and asked in a low voice, "Then why did you come this time?"

  "It's been framed." said Dan Yong.

  Zuo Xiying didn't say a word, but the security guard couldn't hold back anymore. He glared at Shan Yong and scolded him: "Who wronged you? Ma San Yang from the Physical Education Department just confessed that it was your idea to post big-character posters, block the doors, and not let everyone go to the cafeteria for meals. Is that true? And what about posting nonsense online, saying things like 'Lingyuan Female University students' collective indecent photos', 'female students being surrounded on campus', and 'the principal's on-site handling was fruitless'? What about when the dorm mother saw the scene and was shocked? Was it you? Aren't you just smearing our school's reputation?"

  This led to several questions, and Shuang Yong rolled his eyes in frustration, looking like he was going to take the fall for Lei Da Peng's absurd idea. Zuo Xiying, on the other hand, found it amusing and chuckled, somehow sensing that this was typical of Shuang Yong's style - after all, their university wasn't lacking in students who caused trouble. With a hint of interest, Zuo Xiying asked the security guard, "Comrade, is it very serious? Do we need to write a self-criticism?"

  "Just write a check and it's settled, then it won't be serious anymore. From the time he stirred up trouble in the cafeteria, do you know how much money was lost? Tens of thousands." said the little fellow from the security department.

  As soon as the incitement to strike was mentioned, Zuo Xiying's eyes narrowed again, and she didn't expect it to be so serious. When her gaze inquired about Shan Yong again, Shan Yong smiled and said: "Sister, don't look at me like that, you have to believe in my character, do I look like someone who gathers crowds to make trouble and incites strikes?"

  Zuo Xiying stared in surprise for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Exactly!"

  As soon as he heard this, Shan Yong was so embarrassed that he pursed his lips and had nothing to say. It seemed that the impression he left on his master's mind wasn't very good, which made him even more regretful than being taken to the Security Department.

  The door opened and Principal Guo walked in. Zuo Xiying swallowed the question she was about to ask, and Principal Guo gestured for his assistant to leave. He sat down face-to-face with Shan Yong and Zuo Xiying, looking at the girl beside Shan Yong with a hint of surprise, but only for a moment. The more mischievous students in school were often the ones who managed to date beautiful girls.

  He withdrew his gaze, and Gou Ke looked straight at Shan Yong. For someone as understanding as him, it seemed unnecessary to waste words. With a loud clang of the gavel, he directly got to the point and asked: "Shan Yong, I won't beat around the bush, was it you who instigated the Lisao incident?"

  "Boycott the cafeteria? Is that so? I've hardly ever eaten in the cafeteria, does that count as boycotting?" Dan Yong came up with a bunch of nonsense, asking Section Chief Ke: "Section Chief Ke, how come I haven't heard about any boycotts happening at school? If there was one, it would be a serious group incident, don't pin a big hat on me."

  Uh, the department head was speechless for a moment and didn't dare underestimate the students opposite him. In this kind of group incident, the school would desperately cover it up, and he himself was also helping out due to his relationship with relatives. If they really got into it, it wouldn't be something that could be put on the table.

  However, no matter how clever Dan Yong was, in the eyes of the department head, he was still a naive student. The department head snorted and said with a hum: "Hehe... Without evidence, I won't call you out so easily. You've forgotten how advanced our current technology is. There are over 130 cameras on campus. Your friends who posted those big-character posters just left from here. How about it? Are you determined to see their inspection results before giving up?! I heard people in school call you Egg Brother, right? Do you think the school is your own territory?! Even if it were a territory, it's not your turn to be the champion!"

  It's all over, this time it's getting pregnant before marriage, and the poor little wife is settled. Dan Yong looked disheartened, brothers are brothers, but when something happens, don't expect there will be brotherly love to speak of, after entering the security department, they'll call your parents, then persuade you to drop out and expel you, not many can hold on, 80% of Ma Gong and Lao Bao were led by Song Siying to frame Dan Yong.

  Suddenly, Shanyong was speechless and hung his head in despair...
