Chapter 35 Task Meeting
A temporary combat conference room in downtown Chicago, about ten kilometers away from Sacred Heart Maria Hospital.
After getting off the CC1000 express train, forty-nine selected sophomore students and three freshman students were delivered directly here by special car. Most of them looked a little nervous.
They were all more or less aware of the dangers of this war practice class.
"We don't have much time, let's keep the story short."
The man in black trench coat spoke in a deep voice and glanced at the students in the combat conference room who were still wearing Kassel school uniforms.
"Introduce yourself, Li Jianxing, Specialist of the Execution Department."
"He is your fellow countryman."
Caesar, who was sitting at the back of the conference room, whispered.
"The people who can sit here are all elites who prefer actual combat. I don't want to do anything to encourage or motivate generals."
"I sincerely hope that you can complete the course tasks while standing, and then return to the college safely, and never need the body disposal plan."
Li Jianxing said in a deep voice.
Someone in the conference room took the lead in applauding, expressing full trust and respect for the instructor.
"Very good. Now please turn off your cell phone, unplug the battery, and take note of everything I say next."
Li Jianxing said.
No one asked why, they are now all "temporary commissioners" of the Executive Department, and the first thing they have to do is obey orders rather than argue.
The lights in the conference room dimmed, Li Jianxing pulled down a projection screen and started the projector:
"Anyone who doesn't have any bleeding, right? If so, it's best to close your eyes."
There was silence in the conference room.
"Very good, let's get started."
Dark red light suddenly filled the entire conference room, and what appeared in front of the students was a bloody scene.
"The Executive Department's 'B' Specialist, Simons Les, was found dead in the women's restroom on the fifth floor of the inpatient department of Sacred Heart Maria Hospital at 3:46 yesterday morning."
"The primary witness was a night nurse who was patrolling the ward when she heard a noise in the women's toilet, so she rushed to check - and saw this."
"She is still receiving hypnotherapy from Professor Masashi Toyama."
The headless corpse that was nailed to the wall was bloody and covered in stab wounds, with almost no part intact.
"Head... where is his head..."
Some students raised their hands and asked in a trembling voice.
"Unfortunately, we only found an eyeball and some skull fragments in the toilet sewer."
Li Jianxing said.
As soon as he said these words, several female students immediately bent over and covered their mouths and retched.
The other students were also pale and frightened. The murderer's brutality exceeded their imagination.
"It's completely alien."
Caesar heard Lu Mingfei say softly beside him.
"Yes, purify directly."
He heard Chu Zihang say this again.
"This is a revenge against Kassel College, and it is also a declaration of war."
Li Jianxing switched the PPT screen, and everyone saw the half-decayed World Tree school emblem nailed to the wall and stained with blood.
Switching again, the screen reached the ceiling, and the two words "Avenge" and "Crady" written in blood were clearly visible.
"Creddy Brand, a B-class fallen hybrid."
"A few months ago, he tried to use nearly a hundred innocent citizens as experimental subjects for dark alchemy in Asia, but was stopped in time and killed on the spot."
"While cleaning up the scene, the academy discovered that he had mastered a vicious dark alchemy."
"Judging from the word 'revenge', those who targeted Commissioner Simmons may have come from the mixed-race forces behind Credy Bland."
"Everyone, congratulations on the first time you stepped into the dragon battlefield. The first thing you faced was a butcher knife from the same kind."
Li Jianxing said.
However, none of the students could laugh. They finally realized that this war practice class was not an outing, but a real battlefield where people would die.
"Who is his murderer? Is there any specific information?"
In the dull atmosphere, some students raised their hands and asked in a trembling voice.
"Very good question..."
Li Jianxing switched the PPT screen on the screen.
The students' eyes were immediately attracted by the strange picture.
Densely bloody handprints and footprints covered the walls and floor, about the size of a baby's hand.
"Unfortunately, this is the only clue left at the scene."
"What about the surveillance probe? Didn't they find anything?"
Caesar asked, then raised his hand belatedly.
"No, between two and four in the morning, no one else entered the crime scene except Commissioner Simmons who rushed in in a hurry."
Li Jianxing said.
The atmosphere in the conference room became dull and depressing again.
"Then let me start describing the mission of this war practice class now."
Li Jianxing ignored the dead atmosphere here and brought the meeting to the final stage. The PPT screen behind him jumped, and a small black vial made of metal appeared in front of everyone.
Lu Mingfei frowned, he had seen this vial before.
The heretic named Krell tried to use this thing to fight him, but he was smashed through his head.
"I am not in a position to reveal what this alchemy item is."
"But I can tell you that this is something that the hostile hybrid organization wants to recover - in other words, it is a bait."
"We need someone to take this bait and lure the python to show up."
Li Jianxing glanced around the crowd.
Many students took a breath of cold air, this was simply sending them to death!
The enemy who can torture and kill the B-level commissioner of the Executive Department into this state may be A-level or even S-level. Letting students like them take on this task is no different than sending them to death!
"You are right in your thinking. This is a highly dangerous mission. I don't want the person holding the bait to be swallowed by the python as well."
Li Jianxing said, "The person who ranks first in the cold weapon combat class and the precision shooting class please stand up."
There was silence in the conference room, and three people quickly stood up.
Except for one sophomore student, the remaining two are Chu Zihang and Caesar.
While everyone was waiting for Li Jianxing to choose who to assign such a dangerous task, Li Jianxing suddenly asked:
"Why don't you stand up, S-class student Lu Mingfei?"
"I'm not number one in the course you mentioned."
Lu Mingfei felt that this person's question was a little strange.
"Why aren't you number one?"
Li Jianxing asked rhetorically.
"Because I've never taken these classes."
Lu Mingfei spread his hands and answered truthfully.
The low laughter temporarily relieved the dullness and tension in the conference room. Even Li Jianxing shook his head helplessly and smiled:
"Minister Schneider never mentioned this to me..."
"Okay, you three, please sit down first. Unfortunately, I want to appear more fair and just."
His expression became solemn and he said in a deep voice:
"This is Minister Schneider's order. You are responsible for the decoy mission, S-class student Lu Mingfei."
"After all, you personally killed Claire Brand, so you are the most suitable candidate."
Chapter completed!
