Chapter 87: Campus Hijacking?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As the messages from people of the four major guilds had been sent some time ago, Jiang Fei simply set them aside. After agreeing with everyone on when to come online tomorrow, Jiang Fei returned to the real world at 6 in the morning.

It was a Tuesday and the first class of the morning was the dreaded Mathematics class. The moment the Mathematics teacher started his lesson, Jiang Fei was instantly convinced that the bald, middle-aged man had to be a visitor from Cybertron[1]...

As Jiang Fei lost more and more brain cells, a vibration coming from the pocket of his pants stirred him.

He sneakily pulled out his phone from his pocket. Han Tianyu was calling.

“Oh, my brother... I’m in class now, and since Uncle Cybertron is droning away, should I even pick this up? What if he blares away at me?” Jiang Fei complained in his mind and declined the call. Han Tianyu could not possibly be seeking his help. That man just wanted to goof about!

“Bzz bzz bzz...” Jiang Fei’s phone started to vibrate again.

“F*ck... Damn you, brother... Are you really trying to kill me?” Jiang Fei declined the call again, afraid that the Mathematics teacher in front of him would notice.

“Bzz bzz bzz...”

This time, without even waiting for Jiang Fei to decline the call, the Mathematics teacher started picking on him.

“Jiang Fei, you seem very busy indeed! One call after another! Do you have more things to handle than the Prime Minister?” The Mathematics teacher had sardonically jibed.

“No...” Jiang Fei shook his head helplessly.

“Switch it off! Or it goes flying out the window...” The bald Mathematics teacher snarled.

“Okay! Okay!” Jiang Fei quickly removed the batteries from his phone.

“Remember! All of you here are students. All you have to do is study hard — don’t waste your time doing pointless things! Hmph! Let’s carry on!” Seeing that Jiang Fei had removed the batteries, the Mathematics teacher did not dwell on the matter too long and began to continue the lesson.

About fifteen minutes passed.

“Bzz bzz bzz bzz...”

“Who is it this time?” When the Mathematics teacher turned his head, the veins on his forehead were throbbing.

“Bzz bzz bzz bzz...”

The sound grew louder and louder!

“Teacher! That’s not a phone!”

“Helicopter!” A classmate seated by the window shouted while pointing outside.

“What?” The Mathematics teacher was shocked. Even if you had a helicopter, this was the school grounds?

“Hmm?” Jiang Fei lifted his head lazily. A group of men in black flew into the school campus, on board an armed helicopter. It began to descend on the school field.

Even before the helicopter landed, two meters from the ground, the door opened, and four brawny men in suits jumped down. They landed with military tumbles. When they got up, they hunkered down and quickly ran towards the school building. Only after they had entered the school building did the helicopter land!

“Thump!”

In barely quarter a minute, the door to Jiang Fei’s class was violently flung open and the four brawny men busted in.

“You! You guys! What do you want...”

Seeing this, the bald Mathematics teacher was so terrified that his knees almost gave out. Terrorists!

“Eh? Aaron?” Jiang Fei recognized all four men. They were the bodyguards of Han Tianyu!

“Young Master Ah Fei! Please come with us now!”

The moment Aaron saw Jiang Fei, he immediately rushed to Jiang Fei, then pulled him and ran!

“What’s up?” Jiang Fei frowned and asked.

“There’s no time to explain. Young Master is on the helicopter, he’ll let you in on the details!”

They were closing in on the doorway.

“No! You can’t take Jiang Fei away!”

Sun Mengmeng had thrown herself across the classroom door and raised her fists in a combat stance.

“Grandaunt, I’m fine, they won’t hurt me. Just move away!”

The Class Queen would be the death of him. Even though she knew a little bit of Krav Maga[2], she probably could get away bullying another classmate, but four trained bodyguards? These guys killed people for a living!

Although Jiang Fei was very touched that Sun Mengmeng had dared to put her life on the line to protect her classmate, she was completely being a mantis trying to stop a chariot[3]!

“You really know them?” Sun Mengmeng wondered.

“Miss, please get out of the way, we don’t have all day. If you don’t move away, I might have to use force!”

Aaron started moving towards Sun Mengmeng

“Get out of the way, silly!”

With the help of his Cat Spirit Boots, Jiang Fei instantly circled around Aaron and pushed Sun Mengmeng aside. He was genuinely afraid that Aaron would hurt the mighty Class Queen!

“You!”

Sun Mengmeng was so angry that there were tears in her eyes. I’m just trying to protect you, you know! You ingrate, is this how you treat your princess in shining armor...

Aaron and the other three bodyguards ignored her. They quickly left the classroom with Jiang Fei. Then, they left the school building and went straight towards the helicopter on the field!

“Ah Fei! You’re here”

The moment Jiang Fei stepped onto the helicopter, Han Tianyu had grabbed hold of his shoulders!

“What in the world is going on?” Jiang Fei wondered.

By then, Aaron and the others were already on the helicopter. The helicopter roared to the skies. In the blink of an eye, they left Jiang Fei’s school compound. The police did not appear in school, and the media did not report it. The school principal had received a call. Then, all the teachers in the school began to impose a gag order on the students!

“It’s complicated! First off, do you still have that potion you once gave me?” Han Tianyu used to always have a faint smile on his face at any given moment, even when he lay dying from his car accident. At the moment, however, he looked abnormally nervous!

“Yes!” Jiang Fei nodded. He knew better than to ask further questions. This was a genuine emergency.

“May I have another bottle? Of course, if it’s convenient, I might need more!” Han Tianyu looked at Jiang Fei hopefully.

“Sure!” Jiang Fei nodded, then put his hand into his pocket and pretended to struggle with something. At the same time, he telepathically entered the Ring Dimension and extracted two bottles.

“Thanks, brother!” Han Tianyu said very seriously.

“We’re brothers, there’s no need to thank me!” Jiang Fei shook his head.

As they were still talking, the helicopter landed on the roof of a large hospital.

“Aaron, bring Ah Fei to the lounge! I’ll join you guys in a bit!” Han Tianyu gripped the two bottles of Health Points Potions tightly, leaping off before breaking in a run. Jiang Fei quickly realized that this brother of his also was not some helpless pretty boy. Based on his speed and agility, Jiang Fei could tell that Han Tianyu might even be able to single-handedly beat his own entourage in a fight!

If Aaron and seven of his colleagues could beat Big Brother Bear and his thirty-odd underlings into a pulp, his brother had to be superhuman. A Kung Fu master!
