Chapter 532: 532

"The ’bad boy’ had never been to District 17, and he hadn’t expected that within the territory of the United Government there could be cities as chaotic and turbulent as District 17. Song Lan, a young man who didn’t seem to be more than a few years older than him, appeared to have grown accustomed to life and death partings, having experienced the highs and lows of life."

"Watching his friends die one by one, the only survivor from that tumultuous city also carried the burden of a fabricated charge and a hefty bounty, forcing him to flee to the ’outside world’ and embark on a journey of escape."

"It seems that no matter where you go, suffering is inescapable."

Before he knew it, the door to the emergency room opened, and the medical team pushed out the girl who had fallen asleep after being injected with a sedative.

But at least after the suffering, they received some good news.

Thanks to the ’bad boy’s’ ability slowing down the spread of the ’contamination’, and because he got them to the school hospital in time, the treatment went very smoothly. With just a week’s rest in the school hospital, the parts affected by the ’contamination’ would heal.

After learning this news, the boy put his hands back in his pockets and returned to his usual demeanor.

Using the words of the student forum, this unique and independent style had its own charm. In an anonymous poll on a ’Purple Wisteria Academy Fantasy Boyfriend’ entertainment post, the boy ranked in the top three; it seemed that many girls nowadays liked this style.

"Don’t go off campus."

The boy stayed true to his own way of doing things and left such a succinct reminder before he left.

Their conversation was dominated by Song Lan’s narration. While waiting for the operation, he described the challenges he, as a Law Enforcer in District 17, had faced. After some artistic elaboration, his friends, Chai Ke, Phine Arnhem, Dorago Safron, and ’Rat’, all became distinguished figures who had made sacrifices for the public order cause of District 17.

The young man seemed deeply moved.

This was undoubtedly another successful case of sincerity met with sincerity. Although the ’bad boy’ expressed it quite subtly in order to maintain his front in front of others, he revealed an attitude towards the academy that differed from the other students.

In his eyes, the academy was also full of suffering.

This was exactly what Lu Xiang had surmised after reading the posts on the student forum.

Even for Psychic Abilities or drugs, brainwashing every student would be extremely difficult. The greater the number of students, the more likely that there would be inconsistencies in the details. And after encountering Xinya and learning about the current state of Purple Wisteria Academy, they realized that in the eyes of the academy, only a very few Psychic whom they deemed had potential were worth ’cultivating’.

Therefore, they might have changed their strategy, only conducting provocative guidance on those students with potential, distinguishing their identities from the ordinary students.

Even if there were slips among those students being intensively nurtured, they could still rely on the testimony of many ordinary students. After all, the development of Psychic Abilities has to do with a person’s mental will, and the Purple Wisteria Group was an authority in this field. With just a bit of manipulation, they could create a diagnosis of mental instability for any student accusing them.

And the darkness of this academy might just be hidden in the darkness outside the campus; this might also be the reason the boy had warned him before leaving.

Song Lan and Lu Xiang’s separate actions were very successful.

Through the glorious deeds of his friends in District 17, Song Lan closed the distance between himself and the young man and became friends; Lu Xiang, in turn, through their investigation findings about Angle Saffire, generated a trusting attitude from Dr. Kulin.

Now the only question was, when did Angle arrive here and what was his purpose?

According to their intelligence, he should have escaped from District 17 by this time and headed to the ’outside world’.

In fact, after the Shadow’s escape, the Bug Swarm had been secretly observing their movements. Aside from the very few that caused a stir in the core areas, the vast majority of the Shadow had headed towards the Neutral Country and the Rebel Army.

It seemed they all shared the same goal—to overthrow the rule of the United Government.

Under the influence of the Shadow, wars continued in the ’outside world’, and cities within the Covenant Nation rose up in rebellion.

Not long after the two returned to their dorm, another startling news spread throughout the campus.

The ’bad boy’ had violated the rules and regulations of Purple Wisteria Academy, attacked the artificial intelligence guards near the school gate, and headed off campus alone into the night.

The student who brought back this news was Xinya.

After finishing a whole day of volunteer work, she happened to witness this thrilling scene.

It is known that Purple Wisteria is famous for its strict school rules, and the behavior of the "bad boy" violated even the urgent school regulations.

"What on earth did you say to him?"

The boy’s behavior was so sudden that Lu Xiang cast a doubtful glance at Song Lan—he had previously boasted to Dr. Kulin that Song Lan was the best psychological counselor he had ever seen. However, after a conversation with Song Lan, a top student from the Purple Wisteria Academy committed the startling act of attacking a guard and violating the curfew to leave the campus overnight.

"I just told him about some of the glorious deeds our good friends had done."

Song Lan said innocently; he swore to the heavens that he had never led the boy astray. As an Ability User of the same type, he had always treated the other with a caring attitude.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course."

"That makes it even more troublesome."

Lu Xiang frowned.

"Why?"

"If this has nothing to do with you, it means he had a reason for leaving the campus, one worth violating the school rules."

Moreover, it was an impulsive act without any planning.

Even if Xinya had not witnessed the scene, the school authorities could quickly find out what happened at the school gate through the surveillance of the attacked guard.

"He didn’t plan to hide it, nor did he call another teammate."

What does such reckless behavior signify for a teenager in the throes of puberty?

It means that he probably didn’t intend to return to school safely.

Lu Xiang also remembered the boy’s Six-Star Chart; she suddenly realized that the boy might not have told Dr. Kulin the truth either. "In his Six-Star Chart, the ’Coverage’ of his abilities is rated low, which means he must stay nearby to maintain the effect of his powers. He had to change his plans and return to school temporarily because his teammate was injured."

She tried to reconstruct the scene at the time.

The boy mentioned that they had discovered Angle’s traces, and a conflict occurred while they were tracking him, believing that some suspicious individuals had infiltrated the outskirts of the school.

But now, it seemed that this was not the case.

The real situation was that they might have been forced to confront Angle for some reason.

And if his target was still Angle this time, the boy might encounter the same, if not worse, fate as his teammate. Alone, no one would be able to return him to the school with serious injuries.

Although the boy was the most outstanding student of the class with impressive abilities and a Six-Star Chart, what resided in Angle was a Shadow named "Justice."

As can be seen from δ’s performance, even the six-star rescuers will get no good outcome when they encounter them alone.

"He might die out there."
