Teacher Xia Lai is also teaching in Kivotos today

After hearing what Mura said, Mingli, who had just relaxed her guard, hurriedly looked at the rearview mirror again. At this time, what was reflected in it was the supply department's small truck that had caught up with her and was gradually closing the distance.

"This is not good..."

Looking at the small truck driving at high speed, Haruna, who was sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but frown slightly.

"If Teacher Lin En knew that we took Fengxiang away without permission, she would definitely be angry."

"No... I think he should already know..."

After complaining like this, Junko looked back at the truck behind her.

"But no matter what, Teacher Lin En is driving a truck, which is still far slower than our sedan! In this case, why don't we just speed up and leave them behind!"

"I understand!"

In response to Junko's suggestion, Mingli nodded without hesitation.

"Then... let's go at full speed!"

--------

"Tsk... the performance gap between the vehicles is still a bit too big. We need to find a way to slow them down."

Lynn frowned and thought for a moment, then spoke to Julie beside him.

"Julie, you drive! I'll find a way to stop them!"

"Switching seats in a car moving at high speed is too absurd—"

"It's okay, there will be more chaos next."

After quickly switching seats with Julie, Lin En pulled out a submachine gun from the storage box in front of the co-pilot. Then, he stood in the co-pilot's seat and opened the skylight above his head.

"Phew... Fortunately, I had the foresight to modify this truck a little bit..."

“Eh hey hey?! Teacher Lin En, when did you add this modification—”

"Ahem, don't worry about these details."

After ignoring the mistake, Lynn raised the submachine gun in his hand, pointed it at the car in front and suddenly pulled the trigger.

Suddenly, a dense hail of bullets swept towards the vehicle of the Food Research Department.

The moment she saw Lin En, who was half leaning out of the skylight, spitting flames from the submachine gun in his hand towards her, Junko accused out loud in a half-panic and half-incredulous manner.

"Teacher Lin En, this is too much! Shooting at vehicles on the road like this!"

"No... You said one thing wrong, Junko."

However, even in this current situation, Haruna, who was sitting in the passenger seat, still had a smile on her face and very elegantly tucked up her hair that was hanging from her ears.

"Teacher Lin En is not shooting at the vehicles now, but attacking us?"

"Is this the time to be fussing about this? Minister, please think of a solution! If we continue like this, we'll be doomed!"

Faced with Junko's merciless and incisive complaints, Haruna's cheeks couldn't help but turn slightly red.

"Ahem, indeed. If we continue like this, our car will not be able to bear the consequences. But don't forget, although we may incur the disgust of Teacher Lin En, all we are doing now is to seek the supreme delicacy!"

"……so what?"

"So, in line with the spirit of 'Eat or Die' of our Food Research Department, we must not let Teacher Lin En catch up!"

"In the end, this is nothing to say!!!"

Junko scratched her head in distress, looked at the weapon in her arms, and couldn't help but sigh.

"It would be great if Teacher Lin En wasn't in that car. Then we could at least fire back without any scruples."

"We can't help it. Teacher Lin En once said, 'Nine out of ten things in life are not as we wish.' And the current situation must be the test we must go through in our pursuit of the ultimate delicacy."

After sighing softly, Haruna reached out and patted Akari who was driving the car.

"So... Mingli, come on!"

"give it to me!"

However, to Junko's surprise, after hearing Haruna's nonsensical words, Akari inexplicably became irritated.

"After all, whether it's the tension I felt when I was with the teacher before, or the tension of competing with the teacher like now, I don't hate it!"

"So next time before you speed up, could you please tell me in advance, ahhhhh—"

After turning around to look at Junko who was screaming and Izumi who had a gloomy face and didn't say a word, Fengxiang, who was tied up and placed in the middle of the back seat, couldn't help but sigh tiredly.

“Let’s finish it soon…”

--------

At this time, Lin En, who had no idea what was happening in the vehicle in front, looked at the black sedan that was gradually distancing itself from him. Lin En frowned slightly, put down his submachine gun, and pushed up his glasses.

"They actually managed to hide behind other vehicles with their mobility... As expected of the Gourmet Research Department that even the Discipline Committee is worried about..."

As the number of vehicles on the road and the number of students and citizens on both sides of the road gradually increased, Lin En could no longer continue to fire indiscriminately as he had just done.

"Julie, can't you speed up anymore?"

"I've already stepped on the accelerator to the limit—"

Hearing Julie's slightly aggrieved voice, Lynn couldn't help but reveal a distressed look.

"This is really troublesome... It's really hard not to affect other students and citizens in such a complicated environment..."

But even after thinking for a while, Lin En couldn't come up with a suitable solution.

And just as he was lost in thought, without the obstruction of bullets, the vehicle of the Food Research Department seized the opportunity to speed up suddenly and quickly disappeared from the sight of Lynn and Julie.

Chapter 10: An extra trump card

"This is troublesome..."

As Lynn muttered to himself, Julie obeyed his orders and stepped on the brakes, bringing the truck to a steady stop on the side of the road.

"I'm sorry, Teacher Lin En. If I could try harder..."

"It's okay, Julie. The Gourmet Research Department isn't really going to do anything about the sweetgum anyway."

Hearing this, Lynn touched Julie, who looked depressed, in a comforting manner.

"Besides, asking you to drive a transport vehicle like this to chase after them is already forcing you."

Seeing that Julie's emotions had calmed down a little, Lin En couldn't help but frowned slightly.

"But where will the Food Research Department take Fengxiang? Oh, they should know."

Under Julie's slightly puzzled gaze, Lynn took out his cell phone and dialed the number.

--------

"Ya Zi, regarding the gunfight last night, are there any special movements by those bad groups?"

After reading the submitted report, Hinata, who was sitting in the Disciplinary Committee office, asked the blue-haired girl next to her.

"Not yet. And as if they knew something in advance, after the battle last night, most of these bad groups did not show up today."

"Is that so... That's good. This will give these bad guys a warning and maybe keep them quiet for a while. What about the damage caused by the battle last night?"

"The damage to the highway caused by shells and bullets has been repaired early this morning. Fortunately, the highway has not suffered any substantial damage. As for the damaged shops on the roadside and the injured citizens and students, they have also been counted. There are not too many casualties or property losses here."

After listening to the report from Ako who was holding a tablet computer, Hinata nodded slightly.

"I see...Any other reports?"

Hearing this, Yazi tapped the screen of the tablet in her hand, then replied while swiping gently.

"Other than that, these are all very ordinary little things. The Hot Spring Development Department was arrested for the eighth time this quarter, and the eighth hideout of Convenience House 68 was destroyed. However, the Food Research Department has been unexpectedly quiet recently..."

Having said that, Yazi couldn't help but mutter to herself as she remembered something.

"Could it be possible that... the rumor back then was actually true?"

"Hmm? What's wrong, Ako?"

After hearing Ako's mumbling, Hinata asked her with a little concern.

"nothing……"

Just when Yazi was about to make an excuse, a beep suddenly rang out from the tablet in her hand.

"Please wait a moment, Chairman Hinata. It seems that new information has been transmitted."

For some reason, after hearing Ako's answer, Hinata suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.

"…What kind of information is this?"

"This is……"

After quickly browsing the contents of the intelligence, Yazi was immediately shocked.

"Just now, a battle broke out on the highway in Area 36!"

"What's the situation at the scene? Do you have any information about the warring parties?"

"According to the information received from the scene, members of the Gourmet Research Department were shot and chased by a student and an adult on the road. As for the identity of the other party..."

Almost at the moment when Ako described the situation, Hina, who was about to reach out for a pen, paused.

"Could it be..."

"……Yes."

At the same time, Yazi understood her chairman's thoughts and sighed helplessly.

"It's the supply department member Niu Mu Julie and the instructor Lin En. They are driving the supply department's truck to chase the Food Research Department who kidnapped the head of the supply department, Ai Qing Feng Xiang."

After listening to Ayako's description, Hina's face suddenly turned dark.

"But...it seems that due to the performance of the vehicles and the dense traffic, the pursuit of the Supply Department ended in failure. The Gourmet Research Department is now fleeing to Area 41...Huh?"

Yazi, who looked surprised, confirmed what she saw before continuing.

"Based on the information we have now, apart from scaring some citizens and students, this battle did not cause any casualties or property damage."

After hearing what Ayako said, Hina's expression finally relaxed.

However, just as she was about to ask something, a rapid phone ring interrupted her words.

"Sorry, I'll take a call."

After Hinata picked up the receiver, a familiar voice came into her ears.

"Good morning, Hinata-chan. I'm sure you've seen my heroic battles through the Intelligence Department by now, right?"

The moment this voice rang in her ears, Hina seemed to feel that something was broken, and her face, which had just relaxed, turned dark again.

"Teacher Lin En, although you didn't cause any casualties or property damage, you can't engage in gunfights with people on the street."

"This isn't my fault. It's the Gourmet Research Club that kidnapped Fengxiang first. Besides, the reason I shot them on the street was just to stop them from doing that!"

“…Teacher Lin En, I think you should know whether they will give up on this because of this.”

Hinata sighed softly as she said this.

"So, the reason why Teacher Lin En called me was probably to ask me if I knew the whereabouts of the Gourmet Research Department, right?"

"As expected, Hina-chan understands me."

But before Hinata could say anything else, Lynn continued as if he could see through her thoughts.

"Don't worry, I won't cause any damage or harm innocent people like I did before. After all, I promised you that I would not cause you too much trouble before the [Eden Treaty] is officially signed."

"...The Intelligence Department will provide you with information, and I will have them contact you later. Also... Teacher Lin En, you owe me another favor this time."

"Wait a minute?! What the hell is favor—"

Before Lynn could finish her words, Hinata hung up the phone without hesitation.

"Ya Zi, notify the people in the Intelligence Department to cooperate with Teacher Lin En."

"Okay, Chairman."
