Chapter 117: Analysis

"Do you know why they came here?"

As one of the high-ranking members of the Qingbei organization, Song Yu paid special attention to those outside the organization. Apart from the clearly visible enemy, One Central School, they couldn't ignore other forces within the school either.

Although at the moment, such forces were not numerous, there were always some people gathering together in hidden corners, especially after encountering Chen Mu and He Ying last time. Song Yu was almost certain that these two individuals were backed by a relatively significant organization.

Even within Qingbei, combat-capable individuals were scarce resources. Therefore, there weren't many members who could be sent out to search for survivors. However, casualties were not uncommon, and sometimes, after an entire day's search, they wouldn't find any new recruits and would have lost one or two members.

Currently, Qingbei did not hold hostility towards other forces outside One Central School. They didn't resort to forced recruitment because in the eyes of Song Yu and others, these smaller forces could only exist for a short time, unable to sustain themselves in the long run. Ultimately, they would either perish on their own or submit to Qingbei.

But regarding He Ying's group, Song Yu always had uncertainties, especially after meeting Chen Mu. He felt that He Ying was an unpredictable factor.

Zhao Tong pondered for a moment and replied, "According to his own words, he coincidentally passed by, but that possibility is very slim. I estimate that when they saw us transporting food, they came to investigate, not with the intention of targeting us, because throughout the encounter, these two individuals didn't show any particular malice."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, they probably hid inside for a while, and when they saw that we didn't leave, they conceived the idea of ambushing me and Yang Bu'an. You know, even though my 'evil thought perception' ability is not very practical, its accuracy has always been quite high."

Zhao Tong laughed at himself and continued, "As for Chen Mu, even when he was engaged in the fiercest battle with little Yang and even fell into a disadvantage at one point, he never showed a killing intent. On the contrary, He Ying was quite angry the moment little Yang ambushed him."

Song Yu remained silent for a while and then suddenly smiled, "I did have a few conversations with that guy, but thinking back, I can't figure out which part was true and which part was false. However, it seems now that his statement about holding goodwill towards Qingbei was true."

Zhao Tong asked, "So, where does this person stand then..."

"I don't understand, but since he's unwilling to be our enemy, we don't need to provoke him actively," the two of them chatted leisurely.

However, Yang Bu'an was feeling a bit uncomfortable and interrupted them, saying, "Senior brothers, there's still someone here who needs help. Can you wait a bit before continuing the conversation?"

Song Yu turned to look at him and chuckled, "The future strongest esper is looking so disheveled this time. What happened?"

"That guy doesn't fight fairly. He pried out my details with his words. Otherwise, the outcome would still be uncertain..." Yang Bu'an's voice became increasingly low as he tried to justify himself.

"Consider yourself lucky," Song Yu said, then turned to the person behind him and said, "Ma Fei, see if you can remove his shackles."

Ma Fei, the young man who had been following Song Yu silently since they came in, nodded and squatted down to examine Yang Bu'an's hands and feet.

"Oh, right, your name is Ma Fei," Yang Bu'an smiled mischievously, "Old Ma, consider this a favor owed to you. If you run into trouble in the future, just mention my name. You should know who I am; I'm destined to become the strongest..."

Seemingly aware of this guy's peculiarities, Ma Fei paid no attention to his chatter and tapped the shackles with his fingertips. Then he turned to Song Yu and said, "It's made of stainless steel."

She recounted the recent events in detail to the others.

Lu Shanshan and Xue Xu didn't have much to say about it, but Wei Dalei expressed regret repeatedly, saying he should have followed them and challenged Yang Bu'an to determine who the strongest esper was.

The strongest esper?

What nonsense! Ask me, Old Wei, about it!

"He Zhong, what do you think Zhao Tong's ability is?" He Ying had experienced several battles with One Central School, so she wasn't too afraid, but she was a bit anxious, especially about Zhao Tong, who seemed mysterious and unpredictable.

Chen Mu shook his head, "I have no idea. Either he's a formidable opponent, or he's just pretending to be one. In any case, we don't intend to be enemies with Qingbei. It's best not to get entangled with them."

"Fortunately, we're wearing helmets. Even if we meet them again, they won't recognize us," He Ying felt a rush from acting all cool and running away. It was quite exciting.

Chen Mu chuckled, "That's hard to say."

"Huh?"

"Whether they recognized me, I'm not sure, but I think Zhao Tong probably recognized you."

"Why?" He Ying was unconvinced.

"Miss He, you're at least a campus celebrity. You're all in the same grade. Would it be strange for him to recognize you?" Chen Mu shrugged and continued, "Zhao Tong was watching me from beginning to end. Even if his gaze briefly scanned over you, it quickly shifted away. This indicates that he's familiar with you and subconsciously feels no need to pay much attention to you. Instead, he's more cautious of me, a stranger."

"But why didn't he expose us?"

"It depends on the situation. If in the previous battle, I had been the one to lose, he might have exposed us on the spot. But in the end, Yang Bu'an lost, which was obviously beyond Zhao Tong's expectations..."

Chen Mu paused for a moment before continuing, "So, from this perspective, Zhao Tong might just be pretending. He probably isn't suited for combat."
