Chapter 1840: Chapter 1835: Each Laboring in Their Own Way
Hmph, how could I, a person of my generation, be a mere commoner.
Planning for half a lifetime, this shortcut to success, achieving a career through academia, has finally been accomplished by none other than myself, Fu.
With just a casual remark, Su Gao managed to elevate this already intense gathering to a whole new level.
Feeling the piercing stares wishing to shatter upon his face, Professor Fu stood with his hands behind his back, yet remained silent, fully displaying his strategic demeanor.
It’s no wonder he has such momentum; reigning at the pinnacle of human education, stirring waves within the highest extraordinary academy, occupying the position of temporary leader, while simultaneously combining industry, academia, and research, providing consultancy for the foremost violent organization.
Such maneuvering, and the hardships within, are beyond what ordinary people can fathom.
"So that’s how it is..."
At least it seemed, after a brief admiration of the grandeur, Professor Chang Mo had given up on thinking, his murmur almost inaudible.
"Ah? That’s wonderful!"
And here the difference becomes apparent.
Equally unable to conceal his shock, but only briefly suppressed by Professor Fu’s domineering presence, Li Weixuan spoke again, and his tone was imbued with joy.
"I have been worrying about how the academy should coordinate, but with Professor Fu’s unparalleled strength and knowledge, this is the best arrangement... Please feel free to come to me if there are any issues later on."
Look, what is leadership?
In the face of successive emergencies and even this final unexpected reversal, in the blink of an eye, he sorted out his thoughts, knowing that Professor Fu was solely focused on public service, for the people, for the world.
Thus, even without prior notice, he had no displeasure and instead aimed to garner merit.
Not for himself, but for the entire academy.
Though still young, Director Li’s response this time filled Professor Fu with comfort, feeling less worried about what comes after.
Of course, he did not forget to glance at Professor Chang Mo, whose expression was further bewildered by the director’s words.
Little Mo, you’re still quite inexperienced.
...
"Professor Fu, it’ll be hard on you later on."
A secret midnight meeting ended with astonishing efficiency.
After confirming no need to arrange accommodations, Li Weixuan still diligently escorted Demigod Su and his party to the door, specifically entrusting Professor Fu to cooperate fully.
Clearly, the information forwarded earlier through Miss Liushuang made him aware that Professor Fu might have more suspicions about the individual lurking within the Benevolence Institute.
This is likely why, after the incident, he did not attend subsequent meetings, and promptly left the academy.
Li Weixuan certainly didn’t think Professor Fu had any notion of seeking credit.
Having specifically reminded himself and then hurriedly left, the issues entangled behind this were likely beyond the academy’s capacity to bear easily.
Furthermore, appearing simultaneously with the Night Watchman personnel, perhaps not long after he was rushing around, contacting old acquaintances to handle the matter.
Though the "ship" incident seemed bizarre, Li Weixuan still felt a bit of confidence rise within.
"No worries, it’s what I should do."
Fu Qian, the root cause of these series of events, clearly sensed Director Li’s expectations, slightly nodding, indicating assured responsibility.
"Luo Bu and Professor Ah Kai, it’ll be hard on you too later."
As he watched Fu Qian and others leave, Li Weixuan didn’t forget to turn and glance at the two awaiting handling, with a straight face.
"Ah?"
Luo Bu and the other were still a bit confused, unsure how to react for a moment.
The night had indeed been tumultuous, sneaking into the forbidden land in violation out of curiosity, only to be caught in the act.
The punishment hadn’t arrived, but they eavesdropped on incredible secrets, feeling the effort wasn’t wasted.
Now, are we really being earnestly entrusted with something?
"The remnants involving the High-tier Extraordinary, the guarding strength in the Benevolence Institute clearly needs reinforcing, so could you assist Professor Chang Mo?"
Fortunately, Li Weixuan didn’t need them to say anything, continuing in a gentle yet undeniable tone.
"...Of course, please let Professor Chang Mo arrange it as he sees fit."
Realizing they’re being given a chance to redeem themselves by working night shifts with Professor Chang Mo, Luo Bu and company immediately agreed without hesitation.
Though it meant being forced to guard, it seemed like the previous intrusion event was glossed over, and they could follow the investigation’s progress to satisfy their curiosity.
Such an arrangement, how could they have any objections?
...
"Professor Fu, is this handling okay?"
The night was silent, with a chill breeze blowing.
Su Gao, who had just captivated the entire room, didn’t mind these details and simply turned to confirm the situation.
"Absolutely fine."
Fu Qian didn’t hesitate to give high praise.
This was definitely not empty flattery among friends.
Although he spoke little, every word hit the mark; this person undoubtedly controlled the rhythm of the entire room earlier, incidentally helping him clarify his title as Night Watchman Special Operations Consultant, and offering opinions on handling Luo Bu and the other.
The careful measure taken clearly reflected his considerations.
Acting in his true capacity, and directly declaring himself a temporary consultant, it was enough to demonstrate his proactive approach in this investigation.
This was not a forced situation, but a straightforward placement of Fang Xun’s identity on Professor Fu at the academy.
In such circumstances, directly affirming Professor Chang’s concerns showed a very well-aligned understanding.
Beyond that, outright expressing hope for the cooperation of Ah Kai and the others, also displayed broad-mindedness and control from the Night Watchman over the situation.
"That’s good, is that tower your lab?"
Having received acknowledgment, Su Gao clearly had more confidence in upcoming actions, nodding slightly while pointing in a certain direction, curiously confirming.
Though it was still far from dawn, for a demigod, spotting such an imposing structure, even a bit of dim light was enough.
"Yes, after submitting the report, you’re welcome to rest there."
Following her gaze, Fu Qian confirmed while casually extending an invitation.
Though he had already mentioned earlier that she could stop by to rest after the work was done, knowing Miss Su Gao, it clearly wasn’t the time for her to rest yet.
The matter was important, just as she had directly pulled the academy leader for a midnight meeting; next, Brother Yuan Fang and the Night Watchman team were likely also in for some overtime.
As for himself, though he held the title of Special Operations Consultant, there was no need to go along with administrative matters.
As he once mentioned, less is more.
"Alright."
As expected, Su Gao obliged straight away, then, without a moment’s hesitation, bid farewell and walked in the other direction.
