His Word of Power is the Weasel, which cannot be used within the Academy due to the Night's Watch's rules, but Caesar's keen perception is also top-notch.
He noticed that the person behind him was Andrew.
They chatted a lot last night, and Caesar doesn't want to talk to him now.
He received an email from Professor Manstein in the middle of the night, asking him to come to the library to see him in the early morning.
Caesar thought it was something important, but it was just a trick by Andrew.
Andrew hacked into Professor Manstein's email account and sent this email to Caesar, hoping to have Caesar run into Nono in the early morning for a spectacular hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress scenario.
As expected, Caesar walked along the road through the ruins of the academy toward the library.
The assassin Andrew had prepared was right there, and he was already engaged in combat with Nono.
Andrew's plan was as expected; those assassins were the elite of the Gattuso family, and suppressing Nono was not a problem.
Once Caesar appears, he will inevitably intervene. At that moment, he will save the damsel in distress. Even if he cannot win the damsel's heart, he will at least develop a liking for her.
As Caesar approached the designated location step by step, Andrew couldn't help but feel nervous and expectant.
As they drew closer, the sounds of fighting could be heard.
Caesar paused, as if drawn by the sight.
A hint of joy appeared on Andrew's brow; it seemed his plan was about to succeed.
The academy has a dedicated fighting arena, and students are not allowed to fight freely except on free days. Therefore, this must be an event that is beyond the realm of common sense. Caesar rushed toward the direction from which the sounds of fighting came.
Andrew followed closely behind, eager to witness Caesar's heroic rescue of the damsel in distress!
Caesar circled around a ruin, where the fighting grew more intense. He leaped from a broken sculpture and landed in the center of the battlefield!
The only sound Caesar heard was the sound of his own footsteps hitting the ground.
Five or six bodies lay scattered across the battlefield, most of them assassins in black combat suits, and one of them was Lu Mingfei, who was unconscious.
Of the two standing, one was Nono, panting heavily, clearly having just experienced a major battle.
The other one is currently holding Nono's hand.
"Lin Chen?" Caesar was taken aback. "What... what's going on here?"
Lin Chen glanced at Caesar but ignored him.
The scene is there, and no further explanation is needed.
Lin Chen walked up to the assassin, squatted down, and pulled off the assassin's mask.
Beneath the mask was a distinctive Western European face, and Caesar's pupils contracted immediately upon seeing it.
Lin Chen stood up: "Does he look familiar?"
Caesar clenched his fists immediately: "How is this possible!"
Without exception, these assassins were all members of the Gattuso family's investigation team.
Nono then explained, "I was on my way to the library when I was ambushed by assassins. Luckily, Lin Chen arrived in time and saved me!"
Caesar turned around abruptly, staring at a corner behind him.
"Andrew!"
Andrew, who was hiding in the corner, panicked.
This was completely beyond his control. According to the plan, Caesar would appear, save Nono, and drive away the assassins.
With the academy in chaos, no one cares about this assassination!
But someone else beat him to it; Lin Chen defeated the assassins and revealed their identities.
The nature of the matter suddenly became serious!
He panicked and didn't know what to do, but then he heard Caesar's roar again!
"Andrew! Come out!"
214: The Disciplinary Committee intervenes! Caesar looks like Boiling Sheep!
Andrew could no longer hide, so he could only slink out from the corner and come to Caesar's side with his head bowed.
"What's going on?" Caesar demanded angrily. "Explain yourself! Why are your men here!"
Andrew dared not speak; he was in a panic and didn't know how to explain.
"Speak!" Caesar roared, his eyes wide, like a lion!
Andrew was deflated: "Young Master, this...this...this isn't what you think! We were just...joking."
"Are you kidding me? Is this how you joke? Assassinating someone inside Kassel College? Who gave you the mission?!" Caesar grabbed Andrew by the collar. "Was it Frost?"
"No, no, no!" Andrew hurriedly explained, "It has nothing to do with the matter of acting head of the family; it was all my own idea!"
Caesar frowned: "With your meager courage, you wouldn't even be capable of doing something like this. Besides Frost, I can't think of anyone else who could come up with such a heinous decision!"
Andrew lowered his head: "Young Master... look at this... can we go back and talk about it? I, I can explain everything!"
Caesar stared wide-eyed, his heart filled with not only anger but also tension.
The Gattuso family carried out assassinations within the academy, a fact that even the board members could not explain.
Just as the two of them were speechless, Lin Chen's voice came from behind them.
"Caesar! Are you really that clueless, or are you just pretending?"
Caesar turned around and looked coldly at Lin Chen: "Don't frame me!"
Lin Chen shrugged: "What? Brother Caesar, are you planning to continue?"
"You!" Caesar exclaimed angrily, but managed to restrain himself.
Putting aside the fact that he was no match for Lin Chen, the key issue was that with the assassination attempt already underway, this attack on Lin Chen would leave him in a truly indefensible position.
Lin Chen calmly looked at Caesar: "I advise you to be careful, there are surveillance cameras here!"
"How is that possible?" Andrew blurted out. "Aren't all the security cameras here broken?"
Lin Chen sighed helplessly, "Andrew, you still don't know much about Kassel College."
Lin Chen originally didn't know that Andrew would do such a thing. The reason he was here was because of EVA's prompting.
Although EVA is currently at the academy, he still maintains firm control over the entire Kassel College.
EVA became aware of EVA's movements after Andrew hacked into Professor Manstein's email account.
Without hesitation, EVA began monitoring Andrew, and by following the clues, she discovered the assassins' activities.
Although the surveillance cameras here had been destroyed beforehand, thanks to EVA's preparations, there were still hidden cameras pointed at this place, capturing the scene that had just happened.
The message reached Lin Chen immediately, who naturally came to check the situation and then rescued Nuonuo.
Andrew was speechless, utterly dumbfounded.
Lin Chen shook his head, took out the antidote for Frigga's bullet from his system space, walked to Lu Mingfei's side, and pushed the medicine into Lu Mingfei's neck.
Lu Mingfei opened her eyes groggily, and after realizing her surroundings, she jumped up.
"Oh my god, help me! Boss Lin Chen, please save me! Am I dead?"
Lin Chen said helplessly, "You're doing great! You were just hit by Frigga's bullet, but it's nothing serious, and you've recovered now!"
"That's good, that's good!" Lu Mingfei brushed the dust off her clothes. "Senior, it's a good thing you came, otherwise we would really be doomed here today! But speaking of which, what's going on here? Why is President Caesar here too!"
Caesar's face was ashen. He turned his head away from Lu Mingfei and glared at Andrew.
Andrew remained silent and could only lower his head.
Lu Mingfei looked at Lin Chen again, but Lin Chen didn't want to pay attention to her.
Finally, the school's janitors and disciplinary committee members arrived. When they saw the killer lying unconscious on the ground, they immediately sensed something was wrong.
The disciplinary committee has some experience in handling such matters, and there are occasionally troublemakers in the college.
But this is the first time that the troublemaker is a school board member.
To be precise, this wasn't a disturbance; it was a genuine assassination!
The matter is very serious, and the disciplinary committee is not qualified to handle it. It has been reported to the principal, but there has been no response yet.
Andrew, being the representative of the school board, was essentially an imperial envoy with special privileges. He directly took his own assassin back, while Caesar was left in the disciplinary committee.
Professor Manstein also appeared, scratching his head anxiously outside.
Despite being a member of the school board, this violation of school rules still occurred.
No, this is no longer just a violation of school rules; in some ways, it even violates the charter of the Secret Society family.
Caesar, who was confined, cursed at Andrew.
Nono, watching from the side, was speechless: "Seriously, what's the use of yelling so fiercely now! Why didn't you do this earlier!"
Lin Chen shrugged: "The deed is done, so it's only right to give them a scolding. If I had a bunch of useless trash under my command, I would have scolded them even worse than Caesar!"
Nono nodded: "You're right! You definitely can't stand this!"
Caesar's face immediately turned bruised and purple.
