Chapter 174: Facts
The interior of the Green Tablet has always been known for its fairness and equality, but those with combat abilities possess a higher degree of influence, and this has become an implicit fact.
For instance, the field team composed of Xin Ping and Liang Yan. Although they are considered equals in terms of status and need to discuss and resolve matters together, once they have differing opinions, Liang Yan naturally lacks the confidence to persist.
"Did you follow them afterward?" Shi Yuanjun asked.
"Yes," Liang Yan nodded.
"Where did they go?"
"To the third teaching building."
"Oh?" Shi Yuanjun was surprised.
"We didn't expect that either. Moreover, both of them are ability users and easily made their way up the stairs. We almost lost track of them," Liang Yan said.
Suddenly, Shi Yuanjun asked Song Yu, "How much progress has been made in exploring the third floor?"
"About two-thirds of it has been covered," Song Yu replied respectfully.
"The newly-made basket is still useful, right?" Shi Yuanjun smiled and asked Liang Yan.
Liang Yan nodded, "Without the basket, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to keep up. Besides, they only went to the fourth floor. If it were the fifth floor, we would have been helpless."
"Where did they go?"
"To Professor Wan's office."
"Wan Zhong?"
"Yes," Liang Yan answered.
Shi Yuanjun asked Song Yu again, "Hasn't that area been explored yet?"
"It should be the next step. We searched from east to west on the fourth floor, and there are only a few rooms left," Song Yu explained.
Shi Yuanjun nodded, indicating for Liang Yan to continue.
"At first, we didn't dare to follow too closely, so we couldn't see the appearance of the man and woman clearly. But after we entered the room... you know, Professor Wan's office is quite cluttered and there are many obstructions. Therefore, we could get closer and track them. As a result, we saw what those two looked like," Liang Yan said.
"Do you know them?" Tong Bin couldn't help but ask.
"Yes."
Liang Yan glanced at Song Yu, intentionally or unintentionally, then continued, "It's the same Chen Mu that Senior Song mentioned before."
However, Tong Bin and Song Yu belonged to two different factions, and unfortunately, Liang Yan was aligned with Tong Bin's group. If he told the truth, it would undoubtedly be a blow to their leader.
Liang Yan suddenly felt disheartened.
Initially, he was attracted by the principles of the Green Tablet, which is why he had been so active in his work. But now, the organization's direction was increasingly deviating from its original purpose, and a significant number of people no longer cared about the ideals it once held.
After hesitating for a moment, Liang Yan sighed and said, "Xin Ping indeed didn't control his actions well, which led to a misunderstanding on the other side."
This statement still protected Xin Ping to some extent, but it also revealed the truth. Especially since everyone knew that Liang Yan belonged to Tong Bin's group, his words implied that Xin Ping bore more responsibility.
Song Yu approvingly glanced at Liang Yan and smiled, "I've met this Chen Mu before. He shouldn't be the kind of person who actively seeks trouble. The last time he was forced to fight Yang Bu'an, he merely trapped him without causing any harm. So, it shows that he has a sense of measure in his actions. Xin Ping should reflect on himself..."
"According to the Green Tablet's regulations, if one attacks a survivor without reason, at least a punishment of reduced benefits should be imposed, and in severe cases, they might be confined to the Black Room..."
Before Tong Bin could speak, Song Yu continued, "Of course, I'm not trying to push the blame onto others. Xin Ping still needs full medical treatment. If he can recover his abilities, that's the best outcome. However, regardless of whether he can recover or not, his current situation is already a considerable punishment. I don't recommend further punitive measures against him."
"But, his field duties must be revoked, and he must conduct a profound review. I'm doing this for his own good; otherwise... this time, it was just an amputation, but next time, he might lose his life."
Tong Bin couldn't compete with Song Yu in their verbal exchange and could only fume, unable to find a proper rebuttal. With Shi Yuanjun present, he also couldn't use foul language.
As a straightforward person who wouldn't speak without swearing, reasoning was not an easy task for him.
Thankfully, Shi Yuanjun spoke up at this moment, "The main responsibility for this matter still lies with Xin Ping."
He then stopped Tong Bin, who was about to speak, and said, "Of course, after he wakes up, he will be given a chance to defend himself. There's no need to rush to a conclusion. Tong Bin, go and see how he's doing."
This statement was essentially dismissing Tong Bin.
Tong Bin glared at Song Yu and left in a huff with his people.
But he completely ignored Liang Yan.
After hesitating for a while, Liang Yan finally turned and walked toward another staircase.
