The Most Random System-Chapter 796 - 391: The Best Age for Crime Is First Ten Years Ago, Then Now_3
When playing for the first time, you might be touched by the plot and the character settings, feeling a stirring in your heart during the heroine’s confession, an itch difficult to forget, yearning for the same kind of romance.
But after playing more, it’s easy to fall into the vortex of "boredom, fast-forward to the Cao Pi segment."
Upon hearing about Lin Li’s situation, Zhang Haoyang immediately suggested that Lin Li name the protagonist "Tai".
That weekend, when the heroine confessed in the game, seeing "Tai Jun, I like you" in the text box, he rediscovered that initial stir: this time not only in his heart, he felt ants crawling all over his body.
——The itch was even more intense than during the first play, unforgettable, and the effect was remarkable.
Of course, Lin Li’s purpose still isn’t entirely fulfilled at this moment.
"But Principal, I have another request," Lin Li climbed the ladder, articulating his remaining aim: "I hope that by then I can also participate."
"Oh?" Principal Wang was a bit surprised again, "Why?"
"First, it’s my personal hobby; I wish to observe closely and practice, I know a bit about related knowledge, so I can assist the electricians when the time comes. Second, naturally, I hope to contribute my share to the school’s management.
After all, the school is my home, building relies on all, I’m also a member of the home.
Since I’ve contributed to society, what reason do I have not to do my best in school?"
Lin Li kept speaking nonstop.
"This..." The request put Principal Wang in a dilemma.
Lin Li’s intentions are good, and his enthusiasm is felt by Principal Wang, honestly, Principal Wang is even somewhat moved.
But as the principal, he still doesn’t want such ’accidents’ to occur, as ultimately, if there’s an issue with student safety at such times, the school is greatly at fault.
"Principal, please feel assured to agree with me.
Whether maintenance is arranged at noon or on weekends, I can 100% cooperate and adjust my time.
As for safety, you can be absolutely assured, I will strictly follow safety regulations, only doing the simplest auxiliary work like passing tools, clearing the surroundings, the core operations are strictly watched but not done by hand, professional matters are left to professional people, and this principle I understand."
Before Principal Wang could say any words of polite refusal, Lin Li already deciphered the look in his eyes, and immediately assured with conviction.
As for assisting, Lin Li wasn’t lying; the task just requires participation, and literally speaking, just going to help the electricians pass something counts as participation.
Yan Aosong, who had already gotten up to leave with Sheng Zhanpeng, nodded at this moment:
"Putting aside my identity, just a personal assessment, Lin Li’s personal ability is indeed outstanding, and his heart is indeed... indeed... indeed clear."
His conscience accused him.
But there’s no choice, Yan Aosong can put aside identity and conscience, but definitely cannot put aside family.
Seeing both say so, Principal Wang pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, Lin Li, I truly feel your heart, and I don’t wish to dampen your enthusiasm, I will arrange for you to participate, but by then we still need to..."
Principal Wang began to discuss safety issues with Lin Li, making three rules.
Lin Li naturally responded repeatedly.
Today everything indeed went as he planned.
"Good, it’s settled then. Specific time and arrangement, once logistics are coordinated, I’ll have Teacher Xue notify you of the details."
Seeing Lin Li like this, Principal Wang nodded approvingly, leaving him in charge wasn’t a problem after all.
Next to him, Xue Jian’s mouth twitched slightly.
The doubts in his mind grew wildly like weeds:
Could it be actually... Lin Li wasn’t possessed by anything evil?
Everything earlier was just Lin Li’s deliberate act to achieve this moment?
But soon, Xue Jian felt this logic was hard to reconcile, because he couldn’t understand why Lin Li would go to such lengths for this.
Could Lin Li want a job in the department?
It’s commonly known that once you touch the wires, you can connect to the national power grid.
But the problem is Xue Jian felt this logic doesn’t stand, as this is illegal employment, and not long after, you’ll be requested down by 119 or 120.
Can’t figure it out.
"By the way, Lin Li, are you interested in giving a speech at next week’s flag-raising ceremony to students and teachers across the school?
If you don’t want to mention your heroic deeds, you can share your experiences on how you’ve made tremendous progress academically, be a role model.
A kid like you, the more we have at our school the better." The principal sighed deeply, patting Lin Li’s shoulder.
"This depends on you, I’m fine with anything." At this time, it isn’t suitable to go against the tide, and Lin Li really doesn’t mind anyway, so he just cooperatively smiled.
"Okay, then next week..."
Xue Jian: "(;☉_☉)?!!"
"Hold on—"
"Principal, this matter needs calmness!"
Xue Jian could no longer ignore the current situation, leaned forward and whispered.
"Lin Li is always Lin Li, you can’t give him the opportunity to speak in front of the whole school’s staff and students just because of his momentary... of... of... human-like behavior, this is too dangerous."
"Teacher Xue," Principal Wang shook his head with a smile, patting Xue Jian’s shoulder, speaking earnestly:
"Your bias against Lin Li is still too big, in my view, Lin Li is just a sensible and polite good kid, with good character, good grades, this kind of student having a ’hobby’ like cleaning up problems is actually acceptable."
"Moreover, it’s just a speech under the national flag, at most ten minutes, we’ll all be there watching, what mischief can occur.
Teacher Xue, you need to have faith in Lin Li, but also have confidence in our management!"
Xue Jian: "..."
Darn.
It’s precisely because I have too much confidence in Lin Li that I have this worry.
...
Principal Wang took Yan Aosong and Sheng Zhanpeng to the school gate, deciding to take some photos.
And Xue Jian and Lin Li also finally stepped onto the road back to the teaching building.
In the end, still couldn’t speak over the boss Principal Wang.
Just let him be.
"This week get the speech draft done, then pass it to me for review." Xue Jian glanced at Lin Li, the heavy burden could only fall onto his shoulders.
"Okay, teacher." Without the protective shield of the principal, Lin Li was honest.
But Xue Jian was still not assured.
Took out his phone, pulled up the weather forecast, then his mouth smiled slightly, nodding with some satisfaction.
Next Monday, there is a 79% chance of rain.
As long as it rains every Monday for the next fifty days, Lin Li’s speech can be postponed until the end of the semester.
Then Nansang Middle School still has hope.
But then, Xue Jian still sighed, "Lin Li, during electrical maintenance, be careful."
Lin Li nodded, "Got it, teacher, I will."
"I meant to watch for the safety of other electricians."
"Teacher, that’s exactly what I meant." This turn was already anticipated, so Lin Li instead smiled warmly, "Idiot~"
Jian Jian the big fool, starting to be arrogant again.
Fool, Idiot?
Xue Jian: "?"
