Chapter 54 -054: Now It’s Over
The secretary’s face looked awful, resembling someone deceived by a scoundrel, “If only it were so simple, but unfortunately, it isn’t. Headmaster, it was Lin Fu who got assassinated in the Simulation Chamber.”
Song Zheng was startled, “Why her? This is terrible. Fu Yunzhe, that old man, has been relentlessly trying to recruit Lin Fu into their Command Department. If he finds out, he won’t let go easily.”
“These damned kids, never doing anything productive and only knowing how to fight and kill. I’m running a Military Academy here, not a den of thieves. This is infuriating!”
“Headmaster, you still have the mood to worry about that! But you’re not wrong; if Headmaster Fu Yunzhe finds out, he indeed won’t let you off.”
“What now? Was there no loss of life?”
Song Zheng, experienced in handling such situations, had learned to gauge the severity of incidents from his secretary’s expressions.
“How can you say there was no loss of life? The assassin is dead, and Lin Fu is wounded, she’s already been taken to the medical department.”
Elbert has a highly professional medical department, better equipped than external hospitals. Basically, unless someone dies on the spot or suffers from genetic collapse or issues with spiritual power, most problems can be treated.
Therefore, Song Zheng was shocked to hear that someone had died.
“Who was the assassin?”
“David.” The secretary said with a pitying look.
Song Zheng’s expression immediately fell; David was his student, who had previously reported Lin Fu and was rebuked by him for not listening, and now, he indeed had caused a disaster.
These past two days, he had been trying to sort out the incident for David, as long as Lin Fu didn’t pursue it, there wouldn’t be much of an issue.
Today, when Lin Fu came to report to him, he had probed her a bit.
Yet, he hadn’t expected such an incident to happen.
“It can’t be, David isn’t that kind of person, he has no grudges against Lin Fu, how could he possibly assassinate her?” Song Zheng simply couldn’t believe it.
While they were speaking, they had already reached the medical department, but before they could even enter, they were barred from entering.
“Horace? What are you doing here?”
Although Song Zheng was asking Horace, he turned to his secretary in surprise.
The secretary had been pondering how to start explaining as they approached, and seeing the door being blocked, he only managed to whisper in a low voice: “Lin Fu is actually Major General Fu Xing’s new wife from some remote planet, the genuine Duchess, we’re done for.”
An assassination attempt on a Duchess Guardian in such a strictly secured Military Academy could have major or minor consequences.
“Are you joking?”
“Do you think I am?” The secretary responded with a bitter smile, “Didn’t you ask for her name when the Major General brought his wife to enroll?”
“I didn’t dare to ask her name directly.” Song Zheng slapped his forehead, “We’re finished now.”
Horace, leaning against the door, mocked coldly, “It seems Elbert really is failing, no wonder the Military Department has suggested revoking your honored title. The lady came to the school on her first day and faced an assassination attempt, where is your pride-worthy campus security team? Where are the security robots?”
According to Song Zheng’s temper, anyone who dared mock him like this would immediately face his wrath, but feeling guilty and embarrassed, he had to endure.
“I’ll go in and check on her first,” Song Zheng said ingratiatingly.

“No need, our Commander is already there!” Horace immediately refused without a second thought.
When Song Zheng heard that Fu Xing had come in the middle of the night, his expression immediately soured; wanting to say something but seeing more and more alarmed people gathering, he couldn’t stay there being the head of the Land War Academy. Left with no choice, he begged Horace to help explain the situation and then went to handle the aftermath.
Now that David is dead, the case was unresolved, and investigating the responsibility was out of question, but someone must take the blame.
It seemed, the Headmaster himself had to bear the responsibility.
