Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Each Has Half

Debate about how to punish Lin Fu was endless, but ultimately, the principal hammered down the gavel and decided to convene a hearing, allowing Lin Fu to appear in person to face the questioning and defend herself.

Lin Fu returned Song Zheng’s gaze without fear, the brightness in the young girl’s clear eyes shining, yet leaving a seasoned veteran like Song Zheng momentarily unable to decipher her thoughts.

"Fine, I accept."

Lin Fu’s words quietly set Song Zheng’s hanging heart at ease.

"Well done."

"Thank you, Dean," Lin Fu said with a smile.

"Lin Fu, whether you believe it or not, what I said before was serious," Song Zheng said earnestly, "As long as you uphold justice and don’t stray, your future will be limitless."

"Will it surpass Major General Fu Xing?" A sly spark flickered in Lin Fu’s eyes.

Song Zheng was stunned for a moment and cursed irritably, "Get lost, get lost, get lost. You haven’t even learned to walk, and you want to run already. I want you to surpass him even more than you do, but is it possible? It’s too difficult."

"Alright! I also think it’s too difficult."

The two of them sighed simultaneously.

*****

The news of Lin Fu attending the hearing spread quickly within the school, surpassing the level of discussion that Mervin and Celia’s assassination attempt had previously generated. As for the premeditated dormitory bullying by Xia Youyou and Tang Xuefei, and He Shu being driven out of the dormitory in the middle of the night, these incidents had been uploaded to the campus network but were soon overshadowed before they could ferment.

No one paid attention.

Xia Youyou, who was undeterred, took to the field herself to cry and plead, but not only did it fail to garner sympathy, it backfired instead.

The upperclassmen who had initially spoken for her turned angrily against Xia Youyou after learning the truth from Lance.

It was even more dreadful than losing fans and getting backlash.

Xia Youyou had not enjoyed her good days for two months before her reputation was ruined once again.

Because Lance had broken the gag order by the Royal Family and the Military Court, all the covered-up incidents became impossible to conceal, spreading throughout the Star Network and becoming common knowledge.

Every day, the entrance of Elbert and the public relations department received numerous interview requests.

All of them wanted to interview Lin Fu.

If they couldn’t interview Lin Fu, interviewing other eyewitnesses on the scene was also good.

The grand and imposing gates of the school were blocked to the point of gridlock, as not every media outlet was allowed entry, many backed by the government or the military, making them impossible to drive away.

As a result, many students, who were relentlessly pursued, directly retorted.

"What were you doing earlier? When we were at Star Port, you didn’t cherish the opportunity to interview, treating us as if we didn’t exist. Now it’s too late."

Many journalists were filled with regret, becoming a laughingstock, to the point that someone ran to post on Star Network, making the media’s relationship with Elbert both loving and resentful.

As for Lin Fu, the person involved, her days were not easy.

Topics about her on Star Network emerged incessantly, with tens of billions of posts every day, filled with speculation, discussion, accusations, and admiration.

There were many who admired her; there were also many who accused her of being ruthless.

About half and half!

The freshman contest had not yet begun, and she had already become the most talked-about person.

She overshadowed all the heavy preparations by various military academies that had been publicized early on, serving as mere foils. Also, due to Lin Fu’s sudden emergence, many strategies made by other military academies and certain individuals to suppress and leverage Elbert’s reputation by revoking its name ceased to exist.

It was said that some were so infuriated that they desperately wanted to find out who had the audacity to disregard the gag order.

When they found out it was Lance, they immediately cowered.

But that did not stop them from venting their anger on Lin Fu. Since their plans were ruined and they couldn’t pursue Lance, then Lin Fu, the chief culprit, had to pay the price.
