In name only: The land of Handong, I shall rule its fate.

In an instant.

Lin Zhiyuan was at a loss as to which of his guesses to worry about. How annoying!

"Comrade Chunlin, weren't you supposed to be in Shanghai connecting outstanding senior students with internship opportunities?"

Sha Ruijin was a little flustered.

If a member of the provincial standing committee disappears during their term of office, what difference is there between that and a death sentence?

Even a business trip won't do!

"Forehead!"

"Minister Wu still has some information."

Tong Lidu felt a headache coming on.

Why are these people from the provincial government so good at causing trouble?

First, Li Dakang caused three unfortunate people to suffer, then Wen Yiyan almost caused a major upheaval, and now Wu Chunlin hasn't directly harmed anyone else, but he's gotten himself into a state of complete disappearance.

"What's the difference between this and disappearing?"

Sha Ruijin first habitually raised his right hand, which he had just opened, then switched to his left hand and slammed it on the table, roaring, "How can this be allowed to happen!"

"Can't we contact Zuo Tao?"

"Let him come up."

Tong Li quickly calmed down the enraged rat poison user, saying, "That's a one-way communication system; Comrade Zuo Tao can't contact anyone either."

"Did Xiao Ye go out with Minister Chunlin?"

Lin Zhiyuan asked.

"Yes."

Tong Li gave an affirmative answer.

Lin Zhiyuan immediately dialed Secretary Ye's number, which rang for almost half a minute before being answered.

The first thing that came through the microphone was heavy, rapid breathing, and you could also faintly hear the sounds of pursuit that made people stop.

There were also shouts like "Don't jump!"

This immediately caused everyone in the conference room to hold their breath, afraid of missing a single crucial piece of information.

"Director Lin, we are at Peking University."

Xiao Ye clearly knew what Lin Zhiyuan wanted to ask most, and quickly reported the situation.

Beijing University?

This answer, on the contrary, confused a group of Standing Committee members who thought the two were in danger and were ready to contact Shanghai to send a rescue team at any time.

"Xiao Ye, let me speak!"

Wu Chunlin's hoarse roar came from the side.

"Old Lin, the righteous path is one foot high, but the evil path is ten feet high!"

Wu Chunlin's voice was filled with grief and indignation, yet it also revealed a suppressed excitement, leaving Lin Zhiyuan completely confused about what was going on with him.

"I got screwed over by that old bastard Chang Songbai."

Chang Qing, the former president of Peking University, was also known as Songbai Jushi.

Seven days ago.

"When I first arrived at Shanghai University, I wanted to do something big, but I didn't even get to see President Wang before I was asked to leave the campus."

"Then I went to Jiaotong University, Dandong University, and Beijing University of Technology, but without exception, I was rejected by all of them."

"I waited outside Principal Wang's residential compound for three days, and finally caught him the night before last."

"He explained everything very clearly."

"That old guy Chang Songbai called all the top 100 universities and issued a blacklist against me, saying that I cheated Peking University students."

"Damn it!"

"Do you think I can swallow this insult? If I do, am I still Wu Chunlin of Han Dong?"

"I rushed back to Peking University early yesterday morning."

Hehehe!

Wu Chunlin's wicked laughter echoed, "I've managed to sneak into the school for two days in a row. This old man is so meticulous, but he made a mistake. Other schools are heavily guarded, but Peking University is very lax."

"Xiao Ye and I hid in a corner and arrested lone senior students."

"Old Lin, what are you going to do about it!"

"I signed forty copies in one day! Forty of our juniors from Peking University, in black and white, with their signatures and fingerprints."

"It's more than the last time he was so stingy with what he released."

"quack!"

"There's also a great computer science student in there, Lao Lin. You can speed up the progress of your online government platform."

"When I get back, remember to kowtow to me."

"However, one should not be too complacent."

"I was reported by a student who said I looked like a fraudster. I even showed him my ID."

"Damn it!"

"Old Chang is mobilizing the entire school's security and students to hunt down me and Xiao Ye, but what's the use!"

"I scaled the wall and left a whole group of people behind."

Wu Chunlin kept bragging about his achievements, but then his secretary, Xiao Ye, screamed in terror, "Boss, boss, students are chasing us over there!"

"Where are the students? Are there many of them?"

"Only three!"

"Hehehehe, three people dare to come and arrest me! Xiao Ye, bring out the internship contract, I'm making sure they sign it before they leave."

"What? Your face looks young, not like a senior in college?"

"It's okay, let's sign it first. I can wait two or three years if necessary."

"Old Lin, I'm hanging up."

"Wait until I bring you three more big treasures."

Beep!

The phone was busy in the conference room, but the room remained silent.

No one spoke.

Sha Ruijin opened his mouth several times, but then swallowed back the words that were about to come out.

Good news: Wu Chunlin was not attacked by criminals.

The bad news is that Wu Chunlin is the real culprit, and he's still wreaking havoc on the poor students of Peking University.

"Governor Zhiyuan, is this how you recruit people?"

Sha Ruijin still felt he should say something, otherwise it would be too awkward.

Lin Zhiyuan silently put away his phone.

Although it was expected that people would hate him, the speed at which things deteriorated was too fast.

Moreover, Wu Chunlin's erratic actions completely disrupted the original plan, like a runaway train—who knows where it will end up?

And that computer science major that Wu Chunlin mentioned, could she be the chosen one or the one who was already destined for marriage?

Plans have changed!

It even changed into two at once.

"Secretary Sha, can I say I don't know?"

Lin Zhiyuan rubbed his face wearily, but the shock on his face was quickly replaced by a strange and twisted smile. "Minister Pan, quick, publish a report."

"They say that the arrival of a genius student from Kyoto University at Handong will bring about a groundbreaking breakthrough in the development of Handong's computer engineering, and so on."

"Fifty students from Peking University also arrived in Handong."

"Don't use official media."

"But the reach must be wide."

"At the end of the report, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Principal Chang Qing for his strong support of Handong."

"Remember to split it into two parts, and thank the authors at the end of both parts."

"Lock down all the variables."

"We must not let Minister Chunlin's outstanding achievements go to waste; Minister Chunlin's sacrifice was worthwhile."

That's what you're saying...

Even those from the provincial government couldn't stop their lips from twitching. Good heavens, does this mean they're tacitly acknowledging Wu Chunlin's heroic sacrifice?

and!

Do you remember this is the Standing Committee meeting? There are meeting minutes to be submitted.

"etc!"

Li Dakang suddenly spoke up.

Hey!

Seeing the gazes directed at him, Li Dakang's old face showed a hint of awkward embarrassment. "Governor Zhiyuan, before Minister Wu sacrifices himself, could you ask him to help Jingzhou recruit another batch of top science and engineering students?"

"Jingzhou needs them so much."

"The people of Jingzhou need them so much."

Got it!

I thought this guy had some brilliant idea, but it turns out he just added fuel to the fire.

Gerbilicide felt like a dark and hopeless situation.

He had assumed his opponents would be a group of cunning monsters, but they turned out to be a constellation of stars.

Gou Ride!
