Ultra: Heroes Don't Ask Where They Come From

The leadership team arrived in a few minutes. The leader was an old man in a suit and tie. Although his hair was snow-white, his face showed signs of aging, and he wore glasses, he was not thin. He was about 1.7 meters tall, and his steps were big and fast. Behind him followed several men and women of different ages and wearing different clothes. Some of them were younger than the old man, but although they were not out of breath, it was obvious that they were led by the old man in front.

Is this the principal?

When Beidou was thinking this, the old man had already arrived in front of him and stretched out his hand to shake hands. The old man stretched out his hand to shake hands, and Beidou subconsciously stretched out his hand. The old man and Beidou shook hands vigorously and separated, looking at Beidou with bright eyes;

"This must be a member of Team Tucker, right? I'm the principal of this school, Hosomi Takeshi."

What a strong-willed person.

Beidou thought so and nodded and introduced himself.

"I'm Beidou from Team Tucker. I'm here to ask something."

"Of course, we will cooperate with you if anything happens. Mr. Security, please go back to your work first."

The security guard said "yeah" and left, and as soon as the security guard left, the principal took Beidou to the academy, saying as they walked;

"Suddenly, a member of the Tucker Team arrived. I was so anxious that I didn't know what to do. Our school is a music school after all. I really didn't expect that a member of the Tucker Team would come. If it was a student problem, the Tucker Team members shouldn't be needed, right...?"

Beidou and the principal walked side by side, and the young and old people followed behind. Beidou thought that there should be teachers or directors among them, but he didn't care about this at the moment. As they walked, Beidou nodded decisively and said;

"Actually, I have something to ask. There should be a lot of students in your school, but was there a female student wearing all white clothes who came to class yesterday?"

Beidou originally thought of a woman who was glowing white and wearing a white dress, and she always felt like the female ghost commonly seen in movies.

"A female student dressed in white?"

The principal had a visibly confused expression on his face. After a few seconds of hesitation, he slowly said;

"If possible, can you ask what happened to that female student? For example, is it a serious case or something like that?"

When talking about serious cases, the principal's brows were obviously furrowed and his voice was a little lower.

"No, it's not this kind of thing. It's related to our duties, so it's inconvenient to disclose, but I just want to ask a few simple questions."

"Yeah......"

Beidou couldn't tell from the principal's face whether he took this seriously or thought it was an excuse, but at least Beidou couldn't say more.

Perhaps to outsiders he is a member of the Tucker Team of a special agency, but even if there is no problem with his duties in this investigation, his motives are completely unclear.

But of course the principal couldn't investigate this, even if he was a former military officer (of course he wasn't before, he was just a musician), and now he is just the principal of a music school. No matter how high the tuition is or how famous the school is, facing the level of the Tucker team, it would be good enough if he could try to probe indirectly, there is nothing else he can do.

The principal then talked to Beidou about the identity and name of the female student, but after learning that he only knew her face and that she was wearing white clothes yesterday, he looked thoughtful.

The principal called an elderly man behind him and talked to him for a few words. Then he told Beidou that this was the head teacher of their school. They would go to the teaching office first. He would call the head teachers of several grades to ask if there were any female students wearing white clothes in class yesterday. If so, he would call them directly to the teaching office to discuss the problem.

Beidou agreed, but felt a little guilty about this powerful principal.

"It would be great if Team Member Nan was here. She's more careful, but it's a pity that she's not here. Although Team Member Zhen can also do it, I can't tell the other team members about this. Forget it, the investigation is the most important thing, and I hope everything goes well."

However, after Beidou, the principal, and the head teacher of the grade stayed in the teaching office for more than ten minutes, the investigation began to go wrong.

The principal made a phone call first and actually found out that there were seven female students who wore white clothes yesterday. Then the director retrieved their files from the computer one by one.

But Beidou denied all of them. Ever since he was resurrected by the giant, his eyesight has improved to the point where he can snipe people two kilometers away with a scope installed on an AK. He determined that none of the seven students were those people. Finally, the school leaders were helpless and asked if they wanted to use the exhaustive method. Beidou decisively agreed.

“Even if the conditions are limited to women, if there are no other screening conditions, it will take a long time. Is it really okay?”

"No problem, that's it."

The director, who had thought he would be relieved soon, was once again busy running around the screen. As time went by, some of the young teachers around him left, while others were still in the teaching department.

Beidou looked at the time. Patrolling is very time-consuming. It has not even been half an hour yet. He guessed that there was no problem with the real team members. However, Beidou still contacted them just in case.

The Tucker team's helmet has a communication function. Beidou pulled down the small microphone. "This is Beidou, calling the real team members, what's going on over there?"

Beidou waited for a few seconds before a voice came from the other side.

"This is a real team member. We have been on normal patrol and have not found any problems. By the way, Beidou, you don't have to keep adding the word 'team member'. You can just call me by my first and last name. This is more convenient."

"Really?" Beidou said in disbelief, then he took a few steps towards the door with a smile on his face, "Then I won't be polite, Zhen team member."

"Of course, but you still have a lot to learn as a member of Team Tucker, and I won't show mercy when the time comes."

Beidou always felt that Xia Long's side was particularly quiet. It seemed that there was only the sound of Xia Long talking, without any familiar noises such as car horns or human voices.

After hearing what Xia Long said, Beidou smacked his lips, but of course he didn't make any sound, otherwise even with his emotional intelligence he would know that he would suffer the consequences.

What a ruthless person he is. But it's quite enviable to be so ruthless.

Beidou instantly admired the attitude of Team Member Shin who was both capable and able to live as he pleased. In Japanese society, reading the atmosphere is an important skill. It can be said that maintaining superficial peace is an unspoken rule that is almost unspoken in most societies.

Even someone like Beidou, who has low emotional intelligence and is easily angered, knows this. However, Manatsu Ryu can speak in a nice tone one second and then say, "If you make a mistake, I'll say whatever I want to you" the next second. If he wants to win people's hearts, he won't be able to win them over even a hair.

Beidou and Zhen only exchanged a few words, and after making sure that everything was fine with each other, he moved closer to the director.

It took them about ten minutes more. At the beginning, it was the director who rowed. After a while, Beidou felt that he understood it. It was much simpler than operating a fighter plane, so he rowed himself. He rowed much faster than the director, and he really looked at them one by one.

But the result was dismal. When Beidou reached the end and looked through the headshots of all the female students in all grades, he still found nothing. But he certainly didn't think of continuing to check the boys' information, and he was sure that he had looked through the girls' information one by one.

For work like this that is similar to filling in the gaps, the most important thing is carefulness. It is better to look through them carefully one by one from the beginning. Instead of quickly skimming for the sake of convenience and having to waste time rereading them in the end, it is better to look through them carefully from the beginning.

But I can’t find it?

If that's the case, why did that woman come to this school after she flew out of the super beast? Was it not related to the students, but the female teacher, or someone who was planning to enter this school?

Beidou was confused. The invaders' super beast weapons were already a strange thing in themselves.

And the person who came out of the invading weapon and is invisible to ordinary people did not go to the industrial area, nor to the Tucker team base to do things more suitable for invasion such as stealing intelligence, but instead came to the music university. It is even more unreasonable. But since he came, there should at least be a reason. Although he doesn't know the reason, but now there is nothing?

Beidou asked again if there were any female teachers wearing white clothes yesterday. The director was silent for a moment and made a phone call - the principal had just answered a call and left very apologetically - two minutes later he put down the phone and told Beidou that no female teacher was wearing pure white clothes yesterday.

There was one teacher who had asked for leave and hadn't been here, but he was also a man.

After a thorough investigation, they found nothing. Although he was not physically exhausted, he felt a little tired mentally. When he walked out of the teaching office, Beidou was stunned for a moment and suddenly looked around.

"What's wrong with you?"

The Dean of Studies was keenly aware of this and asked;

"no no......"

After a moment's hesitation, Beidou shook his head and said;

"It's just an illusion. I seemed to feel like there was someone here just now."

"It could be a teacher who happened to be passing by, because people going up and down would walk by the stairs."

Beidou nodded, thinking it was just his illusion, and then he started walking.

The sound of footsteps echoed in the corridor, mixed with the conversation between the dean and Beidou. After the sound gradually faded away, the corridor became quiet.
