The puppets' stage play

8 April

Footsteps sounded in the dim auditorium. The visitor was not in a hurry and quietly looked at the few people hidden in the dark.

"Yan Sheng, you're early," an old and sharp voice sounded.

"Yes, the students are anxious, so come early, President Kang." Yan Sheng spoke calmly and looked straight ahead.

Snap, the lights came on, illuminating every corner of the room.

This is an extremely wide auditorium. There is a large square table in front of it, and a spirited silver-haired old man is sitting in the main seat, looking over here.

He is about seventy years old, with white hair and a boyish face, and his body appears to be extremely strong, not inferior to that of an adult male.

He is the only person in power in Qingjing College next to the dean, who controls everything. He is also the first generation student of the dean, the world-famous Dr. Kang, who has made countless fortunes.

There was one person sitting on each side, and the person on the right was looking at the ceiling casually. He had a young face, a simple appearance, and was wearing the blue and black uniform unique to the Qingjing Academy guard team.

There was an armband wrapped around his arm with the letters HW written on it, but his eyes occasionally drifted past Professor Kang, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes, proving that he was not as calm as he appeared.

The old man on the left looked here gently. He was wearing a white robe with long sleeves. Although there were obvious wrinkles on his face, his eyes were bright and clear.

Yan Sheng paused and leaned down slightly to show respect. This was Professor Gong, who was the same generation as Professor Kang. He had a respected position and was a master of culture.

In this assessment, his grandson will be present, so he, who has not been involved in college affairs for a long time, also appears here.

Gong Shoucheng, who has a long-standing reputation and is known as the mediator among the younger generation.

He had heard about it, but he didn't expect that this old guy would come forward to support him, and his relationship with his boy was not bad. It seemed that he had to reconsider the method of wooing him. Yan Sheng calmly sat down under Professor Gong's head. .

To the outside world, he is the omniscient and high-status mayor.

Here, based on his seniority, he can only be a junior. After all, the three major colleges are the real power holders behind the scenes in this world. All power comes from their permission before it takes effect.

Yan Sheng was wearing a straight black dress. Although he was middle-aged, he looked extremely young. He touched the mustache he had grown specially and looked at Tang Xian opposite.

The other party's father, Tang Chen, is considered a family friend of his, and he and the other party discussed the strategy back then.

Unfortunately, the other party was eventually ousted by his political opponents, and he was unable to help, so the relationship between the two families faded away.

Tang Xian looked at his uncle opposite, with neither sadness nor joy in his heart.

He knew that the other party was still in contact with his father in private, and the relationship between the two families had not been severed. He looked directly at the old man in charge. It was the other party who had caused his father, who had worked hard all his life, to be mercilessly ousted and reviled.

He sneered in his heart, Kang Tainian has been prosperous in recent years.

Ever since the dean became old and bedridden, he had taken power in his hands and vigorously suppressed those who disobeyed. Even his family's inherited position of captain of the guard was removed.

But how did the other party know about his own reputation? No one listened to the airborne captain's orders and he refused to leave his residence. Even today he came by himself, but the other party was beaten half to death by passers-by.

This position of guard captain should be his, it is his!

Tang Xian felt fierce in his heart and tried his best not to look at the other person and exude hostility.

Professor Kang was at the top, his eyes swept over here, with pity, pitiful for Tomson's clear life, and his own wealth was squandered by him, but that person was indeed useless and could not suppress the other party.

He had already decided in his heart that before this assessment, he would first hand over the captain's position to the other party, let the other party go as he wished, make him go crazy and his reputation would be greatly reduced, and then he would naturally take over the power. All kinds of methods were passed through his mind.

He smiled again, making the other party a little confused.

Professor Gong spoke to Yan Sheng in a gentle voice. When he glanced up from the corner of his eye, he knew that the old boy was up to something conspiracy again.

That guy had always had bad intentions since he was a child, and he would pretend to be innocent to the dean. Privately, he felt so disgusted that he left this vortex.

Now he has to seek benefits for his grandson. He sighs in his heart but has no regrets. It is rare for a descendant to have a genius. He will only be happy and support him with all his strength. Thinking of his grandson's talent, his heart is burning.

He shouted in his heart, old boy, you are going to die when you are old. The future belongs to the generation of my Gong family. Thinking of this, his face became more and more gentle.

Yan Sheng looked at Dr. Gong who was smiling heartily, and couldn't help but guess the other person's intentions.

On the one hand, I am here as the mayor to handle the registration of Haizhou City and provide help for the subsequent assessment. On the other hand, I am also standing up for someone who is not present. After all, the other party is kind to his son.

A cold light flashed in his eyes. Kang, who was sitting in the main seat, hated the other party and wished to expel him from the academy.

Yan Sheng and Professor Gong talked quietly and communicated with each other. Because their children had a good relationship, the atmosphere between the two gradually became warm.

Tang Xian didn't say anything, thinking about his next words and how to get the captain position.

Chief Master Kang was sitting in the main seat, looking at this scene with a kind face, squeezing his beard and smiling and nodding, but his eyes were extremely aloof, as if he was overlooking everyone from the horizon and regarded them as mortals.

While several people were thinking, time did not stop.

People keep coming to this auditorium, which symbolizes the highest glory of Qingjing College. When visitors enter, they often salute to the leader, Professor Kang, to express their respect, and then run around Professor Kang to greet him.

Most people gathered around each other, only a few frowned and sat alone.

No matter who he met, Professor Kang always responded kindly, making the guests feel flattered.

Tang, Yan, Gong and others were also looking at the people who came, and were frightened by the power behind the scenes of Chief Kang.

One of the top distribution channels, the king of media occupying the entire Haizhou City - Mo Shijia.

Li Xiao, the director of the leading company that integrates mechanical production parts and creates humanoids.

Mastering the high-end molecular studio, mass-producing military and civilian food, Yu Shengzhe is the setter of industry standards.

.

.........

People from all walks of life, tall or short, fat or thin, came to the scene one after another. At the same time, they were also powerful councilors under the mayor of Haizhou City. They each had their own private armed forces, and they often formed alliances with each other to suppress those below who did not know their own capabilities. challenger.

Yan Sheng counted the number of guests carefully, feeling annoyed that only one of the 24 members had not arrived yet.

Although these people usually would not disobey his orders, they would not try their best to do so.

But now! The scene before him made him feel that his methods were too gentle, so that these people did not care about his existence.

"President Kang! Why are you so thin? What makes you work so hard! The students are ashamed and wish they could share your worries!"

Mo Shijia burst into tears instantly and cried to Professor Kang.

"Professor Kang, you should pay attention to your health! If you have any worries, as long as you say a word, the students will go through fire and water for you, no matter what!"

"Aww, Professor Kang, you still need to command us more, you can't fall down!"

Fatty Mo's belly was trembling wildly, and he blamed himself for Professor Kang.

Li Xiao's usually stern face revealed a flattering smile, and he nodded like a puppy when he looked at Kang.

Yu Shengzhe's eyes were moist and red, and his body was shaking constantly.

Tang Xian's face was twitching a little. These people were licking each other without any regard for face. They were extremely stiff, but they were still complacent. It was really disgusting!

Professor Gong was speechless and did not look down upon others.

He understood in his heart how much power Kang had. Even the mayor of a city could be dismissed at will as long as he was given a certain reason within the college.

Of course, the most important thing is that the other party is a first-generation student of the dean.

It's a pity that if the dean had not been seriously ill and unwilling to accept cutting-edge treatment, the school's atmosphere would not have deteriorated to this extent.

In the past, all members of their generation worked together, but now most of their peers have relinquished power and ignored worldly affairs.

That's why the other party is so swollen that no one can control it.

Professor Kang waved his arm, and the whole place fell into silence. Everyone looked at each other and made no noise. Professor Kang seemed particularly high-spirited.

"So, today -"

"Oops, sorry, I'm late, the car got stuck on the road, haha, I'm sorry."

A man with a spherical body struggled to step over the door, his face dripping with sweat, his hands waving, and his expression particularly apologetic.

The corners of Yan Sheng's mouth curled up, and he looked leisurely at the person who came. He was the former lord of the city, the current leader of the Bai family, the second son of Mr. Bai, and the infamous dandy Bai Furen.

Chief Kang's eyes were cold and his face was gloomy. His followers all looked at him with disgust. His voice was harsh and extremely unhappy.

"...Now that you're here, take your seat quickly and don't waste time."

Professor Kang did not rebuke him in the end. The other party seemed lonely, but among those who pursued him, there might be true confidants of the Bai family.

Mr. Bai, Bai Chongshan is not an easy man. He also spent some money to convince the teacher to win over the other party.

Now the Bai family just seems lonely. After all, there is still the Kong family who is protecting a daughter of the Bai family.

Although Professor Kang is not afraid of the Kong family, the other party is qualified to communicate directly with the teacher.

Bai Furen thanked him with a surprised look on his face, and then tried his best to move his body. After several difficulties, he finally sat down on his seat. Everyone watched indifferently, and no one helped him.

"...You are as fat as a ball, you should lose weight too!" Professor Kang couldn't help but stabbed, and everyone agreed. Bai Furen was embarrassed and agreed repeatedly.

Dean Kang gently stroked his forehead, then put down his left hand, his face straightened, and he waved his right hand vigorously in the air.

"I announce that the first round of qualification review for the 45th Qingjing Academy Assessment will be held!"

The people below were refreshed and looked serious.
