Chapter 495: Chapter 453: A Speech that Slaps the Face (2)

The audience was equally shocked.

Although Zhuo Jinman had indeed shown some mistakes in her last confrontation with Jiang Zhe, the Beicheng Continent had always been above criticism.

Zhuo Jinman held high prestige on the Beicheng Continent.

Upon hearing Jiang Zhe’s words, Zhuo Jinman actually smoothed out her emotions.

Her communications with the assistant director and others had never appeared in the live broadcast.

Outsiders couldn’t see it, and Jiang Zhe could only rely on guesswork.

By acting this way, Jiang Zhe would only appear petty.

A petty person has no future.

The assistant director said to the communication device, "Student Jiang need not criticise Doctor Zhuo. Our team, due to it being a live broadcast, and our first global live broadcast at that, indeed made some mistakes. This has nothing to do with Doctor Zhuo; it is our job that was inadequate. We hope Student Jiang and the other students can be understanding. We too are growing through learning and practice, and we hope to bring everyone a better experience in the future."

How could the assistant director not understand Zhuo Jinman’s thoughts? So he immediately stepped in to graciously make amends.

The director sweated for Jiang Zhe, thinking that the kid, used to confrontations, didn’t realize that behaving this way in front of a live broadcast was disadvantageous.

Especially since the assistant director was an old fox. If Jiang Zhe didn’t know to hold back now, public opinion would certainly turn against her.

But now, there was no chance for him to remind Jiang Zhe, and he could only worry.

Hearing the assistant director’s words, Jiang Zhe nodded, "Oh, so these are all your mistakes. Then about that lone wolf incident, the part where students should have been evacuated to safety, was that also something your team did on your own?"

The assistant director had no choice but to toughen up and admit, "Yes, we indeed did not prepare adequately, and the incident came so unexpectedly that we were caught off guard and failed to evacuate the students in time."

"Then why did Doctor Zhuo order the helicopter to evacuate the students from the Beicheng Continent first, to ensure the safety of the children from the four major families before others, and then prioritize the safety of students from the Beicheng Continent?" Jiang Zhe countered.

The student crowd was suddenly surprised. Was there such a thing?

The majority of students attending this military training were not from the four major families; most were ordinary students from the Beicheng Continent and from across the nation.

If Zhuo Jinman had really given such an order, that would be a violation of the principles of fairness, equality, and openness!

It was simply dividing the students into ranks and artificially creating a hierarchy among them.

The crowd was outraged.

The students couldn’t believe it and felt deeply hurt.

The audience was shocked by such irresponsible actions and statements, and criticism started pouring in.

How could they not criticize the Beicheng Continent, which was at the forefront of the world in terms of culture, medical care, and technology, for having such rigid, disgusting hierarchical ideologies?

In light of this, who would still want to send their talented children to study on the Beicheng Continent?

The ordinary citizens of the Beicheng Continent also felt hurt. They had put all their efforts into sending their children to the Alliance School, only to discover that in Zhuo Jinman’s eyes, whom they trusted and respected most, their children’s lives were worth no more than weeds?

Zhuo Jinman, who had been calm just moments ago, became restless.

This accusation was too grave; she couldn’t bear the crisis of collapsing trust.

The assistant director hurriedly tried to mend the situation, "Student Jiang, this is all your speculation and baseless accusation. We can admit our lack of ability, but we absolutely cannot accept such unfounded charges!"

After shutting off the communication device, Assistant Xu made a call, "You didn’t broadcast these segments before, did you? And your personal call records couldn’t possibly have been leaked, right?"

"Of course not, they have definitely not been broadcast, and it’s impossible for them to be leaked. I’m not a fool; don’t I know what can be aired and what cannot?" said the assistant director.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Jiang Zhe pulled out her phone, "Oh, it doesn’t matter if you don’t admit it. Let’s just listen to Doctor Zhuo’s recording."

Without warning, Zhuo Jinman’s voice emerged.

When someone reported to her about the lone wolf and hundreds of desperados in the forest, potentially posing a severe threat to the students, Zhuo Jinman said, "Military training, of course, inevitably encounters various emergencies. Our local students, which year had less intense training than this? Not to mention the unlikely chance of encountering them, even if there is an encounter, it would be a chance for Beifeng and Jiang Zhe to train. Haven’t the military and the international police entered the Secret Realm island as well? They will help."

When there was a possibility that desperados could harm the students, she said, "Focus on protecting the safety of a girl named Fang Jun."

When the situation was nearly out of control, she instructed, "Once the firepower has been exhausted, arrange for the helicopter to go down for rescue. Prioritize the children from the four major families! Then, prioritize the local students!"

And in between, there were several times she showed her disdain for ordinary students and gave orders that seemed designed to exploit emergencies to cause trouble for Jiang Zhe.

It all appeared crystal clear to everyone listening.

It was her voice, one with which every person on the Beicheng Continent was exceedingly familiar.

Jiang Zhe couldn’t have faked it.

The crowd was in uproar.

Most students on site came from ordinary backgrounds, having made it this far through their own efforts.

In Zhuo Jinman’s eyes, were they all insignificant and not worth protecting?

Members of the four major families hung their heads in shame, too embarrassed to speak. They would have preferred to deal with danger themselves rather than to be looked down upon in this manner.

The broadcast studio was in chaos.

Zhuo Jinman, on the other end, was furious, "Wasn’t it said that no device would record our conversations?"

"We really haven’t on this end..." The assistant director was truly innocent; he had checked.

Assistant Xu’s appointed professional engineer came over and after inspecting Zhuo Jinman’s computer, said in a low voice, "Doctor Zhuo, someone has installed a software on your computer that can eavesdrop on your conversations ..."

"Uninstall it immediately!" Zhuo Jinman was fuming with rage.

Whether in her office or at home, she had a very strong security system and anti-hacking system; how could anyone have implanted eavesdropping software?

What had gone wrong?

The engineer spoke softly, "Looking at the date, it should have been the day Jiang Zhe asked to check the grades that the Trojan was transferred over. You accidentally clicked on it, and the Trojan silently installed itself on your computer."

Zhuo Jinman slammed her fist onto the table with enough force that blood seeped from her knuckles.

She had never been so angry before!

This meant that Jiang Zhe had been listening in on all her affairs!
