Chapter 1016: Chapter 1017: So It Was It
Chu You stood at the door to the academy’s office, knocking on what was an electronic door.
As the door opened, a wave of warm air hit him in the face, and the temperature inside was comfortable.
Chu You walked in while Bao’er stood in the hallway outside.
"Who are you?" A man in his forties or fifties with glasses was the first to ask, as the other two also turned their attention to Chu You.
"I am Dugu Bao’er’s guardian; my name is Chu You."
Upon hearing this man’s confident self-introduction, the middle-aged man inside stood up in disbelief and said, "Chu You? Ah! You are Chu You! Please have a seat," he said, walking over and promptly gesturing for Chu You to sit.
The other two, seeing the dean’s reaction, realized that this young man, who didn’t look the part, must have an extraordinary background.
They had heard that Dugu Bao’er came from a powerful background, and it seemed that this man was indeed the main figure.
But who was Chu You?!
The dean ushered Chu You to the visitor’s seats, where he himself sat down as well. The visitor’s seating consisted of two identical luxury sofas, which put them on equal footing for conversation—no one would feel superior to the other.
If Chu You had been invited to sit opposite the dean at his office desk while the dean still remained behind it, it would have been a sign of disrespect to Chu You!
What, did they truly regard Chu You as someone coming to ask for a favor?!
"What brings the boss to visit us today in person? A phone call would have sufficed," the dean said with a flattering tone.
After all, the Tianchu Group was one of the school’s major sponsors and shareholders; even the school’s behind-the-scenes board of directors would have to show the utmost respect to Chu You, let alone the dean in front of him.
Chu You smiled, "I’m here today to understand the situation better. Bao’er mentioned that an evolution incident occurred here yesterday, but she didn’t explain it clearly. What exactly happened? Could you tell me more?"
"Oh, that matter. Indeed, it did happen. The child has already been taken away. He was a boy in the fourth grade. Suddenly, during class yesterday, he released..." The dean paused, seemingly trying to mimic the scene with his hands.
"He released frost!"
"Frost?"
"Yes, it was terrifying. The frost covered the walls and the floor of the classroom and even frosted some students, causing six of them to have amputations, as well as causing minor injuries to others."
"Oh my! Things turned chaotic all of a sudden. Because of this incident, today I still have to..."
"I understand, thank you. The reason for my visit is this: as you can see, society is increasingly heading in an uncontrollable direction. Therefore, Bao’er will be transferred to another school today. You will handle the transfer procedures shortly, and please send the relevant documents directly to the Tianchu headquarters," Chu You stated.
"Oh? That’s all, sure, certainly. Boss, I must tell you, before you, there were already six parents who processed their children’s withdrawals today," the dean replied.
"Then, thank you for your help," Chu You said, standing up and extending his hand.
The dean hurriedly rose to his feet and shook hands with Chu You, "Not at all, not at all."
...
When the two returned to the parking spot, Bao’er was already sitting in the car, but Chu You wasn’t; he leaned against the car door, smoking a cigarette, phone in hand.
"Daqiao, I’m being watched by a superpower user. Do you have any information?" Chu You’s expression was enigmatic as he surveyed his surroundings.
"A superpower user? Has the master sensed it? I apologize, master, I need more detailed information," replied Daqiao.
"It seems to be a woman, capable of sensing my awareness, extremely sharp. But from her, I feel no malice," said Chu You.
"Analyzing and filtering options..."
The cigarette was once again placed between his lips, the end glowing brightly before he exhaled a plume of smoke.
"Master, the results are in. Based on the information provided, the subject has come from Dongying and is a bioengineered individual. Her real name is Nanami Mizuse; her bio-engineered code name is: Izanami."
"Nami?" Chu You’s eyes flashed with confusion, as this was the first time he had ever heard the name.
"Yes, Nami is Dongying’s latest military-grade Advanced Biohuman, and also an extremely mature combat biohuman. She evolved after... consuming your biological material and broke free from Xiao Qiao’s control. This happened in Dongying."
"It’s beyond expectation. She could actually locate her master and also evade the surveillance of Xiao Qiao and myself."
Upon hearing the previous sentence, Chu You was stunned, and he directly filtered out the rest.
"Consumed, consumed my biological material?" Chu You struggled to say, his face showing difficulty.
"Yes, master should still remember the affair with the Dongying woman Yuzuki Tsukino. You had a romantic encounter with her, and after you left, she was found by the people of Dongying. At that time, Yuzuki Tsukino was put into a deep sleep by your spell, and that’s when the mutation occurred..."
After listening to Daqiao recount the sequence of events, Chu You really didn’t know how to express his attitude towards the matter.
The first shock was the physique of the biohuman; just consuming such a small amount of his substance could lead to a mutation and thus evolvement. How robust was that constitution?!
Furthermore, she could establish some sort of connection with him, and this connection was apparently one-sided; he was completely left out. Nami knew where he was.
Taking another drag from his cigarette, with a trace of sharpness in his eyes, he said, "So, did Nami disclose my identity to anyone?"
"Master, I can only answer your question with ’maybes’ and other uncertainties. It’s very possible that Nami didn’t tell anyone; otherwise, I should have received relevant information."
"Xiao Qiao didn’t tell you about this initially because you couldn’t have solved it either and she worried it would distract you."
"Can she be tracked? She’s in You Capital City." This matter must be resolved, irrespective of the other party’s intentions, whether good or bad. Being watched by a stranger who was a Superpower User was simply unsettling!
Chu You wasn’t worried about himself if it were just him alone.
But then... Thinking of this, Chu You turned to look through the window at Bao’er sitting in the car, as well as the other people he cared about.
He couldn’t be careless!!
"Master, it’s difficult. If she could have been found, she would already have been in Dongying."
"Why can’t she be found?"
"She has strong anti-surveillance capabilities. Keep in mind that her previous identity was military-grade, and she is the bioengineering field’s newest biohuman. Her evolved abilities are beyond imagination!"
Just then the car window rolled down, and Bao’er leaned out, resting her head on the window and softly asked Chu You, "What’s wrong?"
Two fingers rhythmically tapped on the car door. Upon hearing Bao’er’s voice, Chu You smiled, "Nothing, let’s get going." He then threw his cigarette butt on the ground.
Since Nami was so focused on him, she would definitely come to his villa. When that time comes...
The car started and drove Chu You and Bao’er in the direction of the villa.
On the return journey, Chu You felt that sensation of being watched again inside his heart, yet this time he did not use telekinesis. Nami was very cautious indeed; he didn’t know why she had to be so careful. Anyway, right after Chu You felt it, the sense of being watched disappeared again.
An hour passed, and they finally got home; from now on Bao’er wouldn’t need to go to school.
Chu You had decided on Bao’er’s future arrangements: She would be taught by artificial intelligence at the Tianya estate and would also have a few private tutors and so on.
After that, Chu You entered his bedroom and then lay on the bed, eyes fixed on the ceiling.
"Daqiao, monitor any suspicious individuals around, and inform me immediately if anything happens."
"Alerts have been set. However, if the individual doesn’t carry any electronic devices and is inside a vehicle, I can’t detect them. Security cameras are not safety scanning devices, master."
Chu You knew that all the security cameras in the Hanhai Villa complex were on the lookout for suspicious individuals, and Daqiao would inform him immediately if anything was discovered.
But Daqiao was also right; this method was only superficial and fundamental. If the person truly intended to infiltrate, they could evade Daqiao’s surveillance.
In any case, Chu You decided it was time to think about some things now.
