Chapter 637: The College’s Dilemma (2)
"You are a reckless old man. You have been a reckless man all your life." Flamel was very angry. "You decide for yourself. I should have supported Finkel's opinion and asked him to take his men to wipe out the Chen family directly."
Chu Tianjiao shook his head, leaned back in his chair, smiled comfortably, and a look of seeing through everything flashed in his eyes.
But Finkel didn't see through it. He stood up immediately after hearing what Flamel said and said excitedly, "Yes, I'll take Chu Zihang and others with me to launch a sneak attack from the dark. Can't we solve the Chen family?"
"Loki couldn't deal with the Chen family, how can you?" Beowulf said with disdain.
"Why not? We..." Just as Finkel was about to retort, Chu Tianjiao handed him a cigar.
This interrupted Finkel's story and made him realize in an instant that he almost said the wrong thing.
He wanted to say: We have Xia Mi, the king of earth and mountains.
"Thank you, uncle." Finkel took the cigar and continued what he had just said: "We are no worse than Loki."
What changed in an instant was not self-confidence, but a halt in the brink.
Chu Tianjiao's reminder made Finkel alert again. In the few days after returning to the academy from Iceland, Finkel was indeed gradually relaxing his vigilance.
Everything was just what he wanted, and it was also a familiar academy.
It's like a fish back in water.
It's definitely dangerous on shore, but the water, which is like home, is not necessarily safe either.
"Big talk. But I admire such confidence." Beowulf stared at Finkel, "Fingel, you have other tasks. The Chen family and Gattuso cannot be touched for the time being."
"You tell me, I'll do it." Finkel sat down in a half-lying position.
"Clean up the academy," Beowulf ordered. "Not just the stuff in the archives, but also the personnel, students, professors, and executive department specialists. None of them can be let go. Also, work with EVA to restructure Norma's authority. The previous authority rules will be invalidated, and the board of directors will no longer have Norma's authority."
"Wow..." Finkel thought that Beowulf and Flamel really didn't have the determination to do a great job. It seems that he was wrong. "Principal Beowulf, there is a reason why you became the captain of the action team. What you said can definitely be done. The difficulty depends on the time limit."
"I can't give you an exact time limit," Beowulf said, "because I don't know when the current balance of the Secret Party will be broken. I don't understand political wars, but I know very well that no matter what kind of war it is, internal problems must be resolved first. I can't control other families, nor do I want to control them. I just hope that the academy is clean. After all, I don't want to be assassinated like those old guys one day, but the murderer can't be found."
"Okay, I understand." Finkel nodded, "I'll take this task."
"Chu Tianjiao." It was Flamel's turn to persuade him, "Logically, we shouldn't let you carry out any dangerous missions, but the current situation is special, and no one in the academy is more suitable than you to do something dirty."
Chu Tianjiao raised his hand to signal Flamel that he didn't need to elaborate too much, "Teacher Flamel, just tell me what the mission is."
"Sneak into Gattuso to investigate." Flamel said word by word.
"The mission is quite difficult." Chu Tianjiao said bluntly: "As far as I know, the defenses of each family are not weak. If you want to investigate some core matters, it will be even more difficult, no less difficult than sneaking into the academy's ice cellar."
"It's because it's too difficult, so... we really can't find a more suitable candidate than you. Your bloodline, spiritual power, and identity all meet the requirements. You have the ability to deal with danger, and you also have a less obvious identity." Flamel was reluctant and powerless. "I'm sorry, the current situation of the Execution Department is not good. After all, there are people from various families in it. You are the only one we can trust unconditionally."
Chu Tianjiao interrupted again: "Teacher Flamel, there is no need to say the following paragraph and similar ones. I know it is difficult. Telling you that I think the task is difficult is not a rejection, but I hope someone can be sent to me."
"Who do you need?" Flamel asked.
"My son." Chu Tianjiao said seriously, "Chu Zihang."
"No." Flamel refused decisively: "Chu Zihang's identity is not suitable for such a mission. He is too easy to be exposed. Once Gattuso questions us about this matter, the remaining balance of the secret party will be broken. We need evidence, and we also need time."
"This is my only request." Chu Tianjiao refused to give in. "I think I have the right to refuse the mission. Teacher Flamel, there is only one person in this world who can give me a mission that I am not qualified to refuse, and that is Principal Angers. You do not meet this requirement."
Finkel smelled gunpowder. He was the vice-principal's man, and he should stand on the side of the vice-principal to help persuade Chu Tianjiao.
Or say something nonsense to ease the atmosphere.
But he did nothing, said nothing, and just watched it all quietly.
"Chu Tianjiao..." Beowulf was interrupted by Chu Tianjiao before he could even open his mouth.
"Principal Beowulf, if you also want to help Mentor Flamel persuade me, I suggest you give up. You are not qualified to order me unconditionally." Chu Tianjiao said gently.
The more Finkel looked at Chu Tianjiao, the more he felt that he was to his liking. Chu Zihang really was someone who saved the galaxy in his previous life. He had an extremely handsome father and an extremely beautiful girlfriend.
But I'm not bad either, having EVA is enough. One should not be greedy.
How about... becoming sworn brothers with the uncle? Finkel thought.
The solemn atmosphere did not affect Finkel's strange thinking at all.
Since we have sworn brotherhood with the uncle, doesn't Chu Zihang have to call me uncle?
This seems... pretty good.
"Are you sure you want to take Chu Zihang with you?" Flamel compromised, "Unless you can ensure his safety and ensure that his identity will not be exposed."
"I'm sure. Teacher Flamel, just like you are not confident about other people doing this, I am not confident about other people being my partner. As for his identity and safety, you don't have to worry. I will do the things that require exposure. I just need someone to help me." Chu Tianjiao replied.
"Okay, fine, then it's settled." Flamel didn't want to argue about it anymore.
"Then... can we adjourn the meeting?" Chu Tianjiao asked.
"Let's adjourn the meeting. I will prepare the relevant arrangements and task plans today." Flamel took off his cowboy hat and covered his face with it. "I should take a nap."
"I'm going back to accompany EVA." Finkel stretched lazily, "Uncle, do you want to have dinner together tonight? I have something to discuss with you."
"What's the matter?" Chu Tianjiao asked.
"Um...will you accept me as your brother?" Finkel asked shamelessly.
