Chapter 18 Midnight Song

Chapter 18 Midnight Song
After another round of competition, the two sides were evenly matched, and Ellie's smile disappeared. Only she knew that if she continued to fight, she would definitely lose. Lin Chen was full of energy and his fists were very powerful. With frequent jabs and killer hooks, Ellie, who was looking for a flaw, was beaten very badly. Due to Lin Chen's strong ability to resist blows and rich experience in Jiu-Jitsu fighting, even if Ellie could find a flaw, it would be difficult for her to cause substantial damage to Lin Chen.

"OK, you win." Ellie understood Lin Chen's character from this fight. She would never admit defeat. Ellie could only say: "You are very powerful."

"You're not bad either." Lin Chen and Ellie, their desire to win satisfied, bumped fists with each other.

At this time, a cry of surprise came from the crowd: "Where is my student card?"

There were exclamations one after another: "My student card is missing too."

"Whoever did this, stand up for me."

There was chaos outside the ring and everyone dispersed.

Yu Ming held his student card tightly in one hand and nudged Cui Jian beside him with his elbow: "What do you think?"

Cui Jian was stunned by this. He and Yu Ming had a very good chat today, but Yu Ming seemed to treat him as someone he knew very well, or even a friend. Cui Jian also socialized and made friends on a daily basis, but he always kept a certain distance and rarely had physical contact. Both sides were also quite polite when interacting, so he had never had any real friends, and he didn't need any.

"Ah?" Cui Jian came back to his senses and said, "It was a double act. Lin Chen spoke loudly during the meal, leaving a very arrogant and provocative tone, saying that she wanted to practice boxing and make herself the focus of the cafeteria. The purpose was to attract people to watch her practice boxing and see if she really has kung fu or is just an embroidered pillow. Unfortunately, the audience attracted too few people during the boxing practice, not enough for the black card instructor to take action, so Ai Li took the initiative to leave. The gimmick of two beauties fighting attracted great attention from everyone."

Cui Jian said: "Lin Chen is an instructor, not a student."

Yu Ming exclaimed: "I just thought they might be acting out a double act, but I didn't expect they were laying the groundwork during the meal."

Cui Jiandao: "I just think that her performance in the cafeteria was too strong and unnecessary."

Yu Ming bumped Cui Jian's shoulder with his fist and raised a thumb: "My master said that my biggest shortcoming is my shortsightedness and that I only know how to cram at the last minute."

Cui Jian said: "That's to praise your wit and ability to respond to situations. Did you notice the instructor with the mask? He was the one wearing a mask, standing straight, and watching the game from a high place outside the crowd without saying a word."

Yu Mingdao: "I think he didn't pay much attention to fighting, but was observing each student. But he has nothing to do with the black card instructor."

Cui Jian picked up the half of the blue rope that held the trainee badge from the ground and took a look at it: "It was cut by a knife."

Yu Ming took it and stared at it: "What a pair of skillful hands."

Cui Jian had an idea in his mind, but he thought it was inappropriate to ask. Yu Ming noticed Cui Jian's expression and asked with a smile, "What do you want to say?"

Cui Jian asked: "Do you have any suspects?"

Yu Ming replied: "There is no specific target. But this person has a pair of beautiful hands. Farmers have calloused palms, pianists have long fingers, writers have chicken claw-shaped hands, and tennis players have strong grip. The perfection of a thief's hands is proportional to his stealing skills. As long as I see those hands, I will know who is the black card instructor."

Cui Jianzan: "You are really amazing."

Yu Ming said with a little pride: "I am a detective, a private detective. There is no truth that I cannot investigate."

Cui Jian smiled. When he first met Yu Ming, Yu Ming would never say such a thing. Cui Jian felt that Yu Ming was very frank, never lied, and said whatever he thought. Either Yu Ming was a straightforward person without any scheming or vice versa, Yu Ming was a very scheming person. Or maybe it was both.

Why do we say Yu Ming might be very cunning? Because the purpose of telling the truth is to lie better. Cui Jian thinks that the possibility is not high. Judging from Yu Ming's personality, unless he is trained from childhood, he will not develop such a personality. Why do we say that both are true? Yu Ming eats according to the food. When he first met Cui Jiang, everyone was very polite. After getting familiar with each other, he spoke more casually.

A total of eight students lost their student badges. An hour later, the school administration notified them of their expulsion and asked them to leave the academy within an hour.

……

Whether it is the dormitory building, the teaching building or the canteen, they are all buildings on the original land and have been there for some years. These three buildings will be demolished and rebuilt after the first batch of students graduate, so the current hardware conditions of the college are relatively poor.

The dormitory had no air conditioning, only two ceiling fans, and it was quite stuffy inside. When Jin came back from the bathroom, he left the door open, and the convection between the door and the window lowered the temperature by several degrees. No one mentioned the possibility of a black card instructor sneaking into the dormitory. Everyone was doing their own thing, playing on the computer, looking at their phones, reading, or going to bed early.

No one mentioned the door being closed and the black card instructor attacking them in the middle of the night, but it was interesting to analyze this topic. Cui Jian was a person who liked to use his brain. After half a day of contact, he intuitively felt that Brother Jin looked down on him and Yu Ming, two blue cards, and that leaving the door open was a provocation to the two of them, or an opportunity for him or Yu Ming to speak out and express their fear of the black card instructor.

Cui Jian thought Yu Ming was very smart. He guessed that Yu Ming's idea was: there were so many dormitories, and there was only one dormitory on the first floor that didn't close the door, so the possibility of a trap was very high. If he were the black card instructor, he would not choose dormitory 102, which had a lot of variables.

The person Cui Jian couldn't understand was Brother Wang. Brother Wang didn't take the initiative to talk to anyone. When others talked to him, he would respond, but he never started a conversation or took the initiative to answer. He had a calm personality and a calm expression. He seemed to have no interest in thinking about problems, but he also seemed to be thinking about problems all the time.

The most interesting thing is that Brother Wang has a very good sleeping posture. After lying down on the bed, except for the initial movement of pulling the quilt and blanket, he does not move at all.

Could it be that Brother Wang is the boss hidden among the students?

It was already early morning, and there were still some people chatting in a few dormitories, but they kept their voices down and did not make too much noise.

At this time, a ray of heavenly sound came. It was singing, a very beautiful female cappella singing, singing an Italian lyric soprano song. The singing interrupted the conversation, accompanied by dolphin sounds that lasted for nearly a minute. Almost everyone opened the window and looked at the small earthen slope 400 meters away.

A bright moon rose from the horizon, and in the moon was a girl wearing a white robe, with her hair flying in the wind. Under the moonlight, she was as holy as an angel, and like a pearl that covered the moonlight. Everyone was quiet, watching her listen to the whole song in ecstasy.

After the song ended, the girl walked away with a very graceful step, leaving her side profile to everyone. Everyone watched her walk down the small dirt slope and disappear on the horizon, leaving only a bright moon behind.

"Fairy?" Yu Ming asked after a long time.

Cui Jian did not answer, as if he was still immersed in the song. Yu Ming looked at Brother Jin, who was also in a daze. Even Brother Wang, who had always remained calm, was quite moved.

Instantly, the quiet dormitory was boiling with people discussing the angelic girl. Some people said that this was a show given by the consortium, some said that this was the instructor's preparation for tomorrow's lesson, and some said that this was a way for the black-card instructor to attract prey. But everyone agreed on one point: the girl's voice was extremely clear and refreshing, even better than that of similar international stars. So the question is, who is this girl? Is she an internationally renowned star, or just an amateur?
Someone noticed that the instructor in the mask had arrived at the small earthen slope at some point. He looked around grimly, took out his phone and made a call: "Require the teaching area to be enclosed with an iron fence no less than two and a half meters high, leaving only one entrance and exit. Connect high voltage to the fence, and place motion sensors along the fence. Send at least two commandos to stand by nearby, and send one commando to enter the teaching area to be responsible for security. Install cameras, which must fully cover the entire teaching area, and arrange on-duty personnel to monitor it 24 hours a day."

"I'm sorry, are you crazy?"

Mask instructor: "The above work must be completed within 3 days, and the right to dispatch the commandos and security personnel must be handed over to me, otherwise someone will die within a week."

"I've made a note of it. I'll report it tomorrow." The other party replied lazily, not taking it seriously.

The masked instructor didn't say anything else. He hung up the phone directly, looked in the direction where the girl might have disappeared, thought for a long time, and then left.
