Chapter 52 – Express Delivery! Open Up!

After putting down the chalk and giving his solution a look-through, the math teacher frowned as he said, “Although I feel that something is wrong, this should be the correct answer . ”

“To hell with your answer!” Chen Yu bellowed . “Just say so if you don’t want to teach me!”

“It’s unfortunate, but my abilities are limited . ”

“…”

Repressing his urge to smack his test papers into the teacher’s face, Chen Yu turned around and left .

He was going to go home .

He no longer wished to see any of Sixth High’s teachers .

Every one of them was a bastard .

Picking up his school bag, Chen Yu promptly left the classroom . However, as soon as he left the teaching block, he noticed that a sun had appeared before him .

It was Li Liang’s bald head .

“Brother Chen, where are you going?” Li Liang asked as he approached Chen Yu, his left hand holding a bag of spicy bars and his right hand holding a can of Cola .

Using his hand to block the light reflecting off Li Liang’s bald head, Chen Yu said, “Stop blinding me . ”

“Want a spicy bar?” Li Liang asked .

“Thanks . ” Grabbing himself a spicy bar and stuffing it into his mouth, Chen Yu said, “I’m heading home first . Take your time eating . ”

“Skipping school? Aren’t you afraid that the form teacher will find trouble with you?”

“I’m the one that wants to find trouble with him . ”

“Alright, then . You’re the boss . However, if you skip school like this, you might be the next one to get a home visit . ”

After saying so, Li Liang turned to the teaching block .

“Stop!” Chen Yu suddenly extended his hand and grabbed Li Liang’s bald head . “Don’t leave yet . ”

“What’s up?”

Chen Yu retrieved his hand and frowned at the oil stains on his palm, asking, “Your head lets out oil even though you’re bald?”

“It’s because I’m bald that my head lets out so much oil, alright?”

“Fine, let’s not talk about this for now . What did you say just now, about a home visit?”

“I think they’re administrators from the education ministry? Those guys came to take a look at my family’s situation and asked some questions,” Li Liang explained while chewing on a spicy bar . With bulging cheeks, he continued, “They definitely won’t be visiting just my family . They should be visiting other students too . ”

These words made Chen Yu nervous . He then asked, “How many people are there? What questions did they ask?”

“Excluding the faculty head, there are four people: three men and one woman . They asked about my family conditions, learning results, whether I’m taking extra classes, and whether I’m feeling stressed,” Li Liang answered . He then continued gleefully, “Before they left, they told me not to tell other students about the visit . How can I not talk about it after that? Now, half the school probably knows about the visit . ”

Chen Yu: “…”

“But it seems like they don’t really mind . Just now, the faculty head even came looking for me to ask if I was the one that spread the news . However, he didn’t even give me any punishment . ”

“Aside from asking you these questions, did they do anything strange?”

“Strange…” Licking the oil stains off his fingers, Li Liang pondered for a moment before answering, “The only strange part about them is that their eyes aren’t honest . ”

“Their eyes aren’t honest?” A light flickered in Chen Yu’s eyes when he heard these words .

“That’s right . They looked through the rooms of my house . They didn’t even let the toilet off the hook . ”

“Those four people…” Chen Yu then described the five people he met in the principal’s office yesterday .

“That’s right! Aside from that middle-aged man, everyone else was there . ”

“…I understand . I was just asking out of curiosity . Head back to class . The bell already rang . ”

“Okay, okay,” Li Liang answered as he disappeared into the teaching block, together with his bald head .

As for Chen Yu, he remained standing in place with a gloomy expression . After some time, he entered the small forest ahead, then jumped over the fence there and made his way home .

While walking, he pulled out his phone and quickly typed a message .

[Chen Yu: “You there?”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “No . ”]

[Chen Yu: “I seem to be in trouble . ”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “What trouble? Do you need my help?”]

[Chen Yu: “Yes! My country sent people to Jinzhou to capture me! How did they ascertain my location? I clearly didn’t expose anything!”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “There are plenty of professionals in a strong and prosperous country’s government . Even with very limited information, their analysis can yield many results . It is quite normal for them to discover your location . ”]

[Chen Yu: “Help me chase them away!”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “I’m sorry, Mr . Chen . That is something we are incapable of doing . ”]

[Chen Yu: “You have to help me hide my identity!”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “We have already fulfilled our part of the contract . If your identity still ended up getting exposed, then it must be due to a mistake in your filming . Moreover, we do not have the authority or ability to stop the actions of people in other space-times . If it is a problem in the virtual web, I might be able to help you out a little in a personal capacity . ”]

[Chen Yu: “…”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “I wish you good luck . ♡”]

[Chen Yu: “…”]

Storing away his phone, Chen Yu quietly hurried his way home .

Roughly 10 minutes later, he arrived back to an empty house .

At this time of day, both Father and Mother Chen were working, while his three younger sisters were in school .

Bang!

The security door slamming shut behind him, Chen Yu walked into the living room and sat on the sofa . He then closed his eyes and sank into deep thought .

Obviously, trouble was coming .

So long as those several administrators searched his home, they would definitely discover some traces inside his room .

What would happen if the country discovered his identity?

Firstly, it was impossible for him to die .

He would never get dissected, either . At most, they would draw some blood to run tests on .

After all, he was a native of the same country . No fellow native would think of harming him .

However, he definitely wouldn’t be able to avoid interrogation and observation .

This was also the main reason why he had resisted disclosing his identity to the public back then .

While disclosing his identity might look like it would bring him a lot of benefits, such as an improvement in social standing, he definitely would lose his freedom . Even his family’s movements might come under protection and restriction .

At the very least, that was what happened on TV .

VIPs had no freedom or privacy to speak of .

“This won’t do… I must not let them find me…”

Opening his eyes, Chen Yu gave his face a rub before he pulled out his phone and contacted the saleswoman again .

[Chen Yu: “You previously said that the application process for the fourth episode’s product is already underway, right?”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “That’s right . Is there a problem?”]

[Chen Yu: “I’m sure you know my current situation . I wish for you to reapply for a new product that I can use for this situation! It’s best if it is an advanced technology that can help conceal my identity!”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “Changing a review product impromptu is very troublesome . ”]

[Chen Yu: “My problem is bigger! Help me change it! Otherwise, we’re breaking up!”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “???”]

[Chen Yu: “Just tell me if you can help me or not . ”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “It is possible to change a review product impromptu, but you should know that even I am unsure what kind of product my superiors will assign to you . The assigned product might not fit your request . ”]

[Chen Yu: “I know, but I can’t just sit still and do nothing, right? Just help me apply for a replacement . If I can get through this difficult period, we’re brothers for life!”]

[Transdimensional Marketing: “…Very well, Mr . Chen . Our team will begin submitting the replacement application . ”]

[Chen Yu: “Thank you . ”]

Placing down his phone, Chen Yu breathed out a tired sigh . In the next moment, though, he noticed a drawing on the tea table and instinctively picked it up to take a look .

This was a crayon drawing Chen Erke drew .

There was a total of five people .

In the drawing, Father Chen stood on the leftmost side, Mother Chen on the rightmost side, and Chen Yike, Chen Erke, and Chen Sanke in the middle . Their expressions looked harmonious and content . Chen Yu could clearly feel the happiness flowing out of the drawing .

This . This was his family .

He definitely couldn’t let anyone disturb their lives .

After thinking up to this point, Chen Yu gradually regained his calm .

“The drawing is nice, but why does it feel like it’s missing something…?”

Brr! Brr, brr!

Just then, Chen Yu’s phone suddenly started vibrating . When he picked it up, he noticed that the caller was an unknown number, which shocked him .

Brr! Brr, brr!

His phone continued vibrating despite his shock .

Tightening his grip on his phone, Chen Yu gnashed his teeth and accepted the call .

“Hello? Who is it?”

“Express delivery! Open up!”
