Chapter 278

Dong Ya looked at the man with foam all over his mouth and a playful, frivolous look in his eyes, her willow eyebrows furrowing tightly.

"What are you doing?"

"Brushing my teeth," Su Yang said as a matter of course.

"Do you know what time it is? It's bedtime now; your behavior is very likely to disturb students who want to rest," Dong Ya said.

"I know, so I closed the door," Su Yang nodded.

Dong Ya had long known about the other party's slippery nature; if she continued to question him, there would be no result.

After all, she never expected that Su Yang would appear in the dormitory at this time.

Originally, she wanted to catch the treasure hunters off guard.

But the plan hadn't worked, and Dong Ya felt a bit displeased, her gaze fixing on the empty bed beside her: "Where's the other one?"

Before Su Yang could open his mouth to answer, a simple, honest face with a hint of timidity appeared before her eyes.

"Director, I'm here..."

Also with foam all over his mouth, and a hint of innocence in his eyes.

Seeing this, Dong Ya scolded: "If you do other things during bedtime next time, you'll all get a warning!"

Liu Bo, who was to the side, felt his eyelids jump upon hearing this and hurriedly stood out to provide a step down: "Did you hear that? Hurry up and finish what you're doing, and go to bed obediently!"

Although this behavior was indeed undesirable, it didn't reach the level of such a degree.

He didn't know where Dong Ya's nameless fire came from, but seeing his student being scolded, he subconsciously stood out to be a peacemaker.

Dong Ya warned them a few more times, and before leaving, she looked at Su Yang: "You come out."

"Okay, Director."

Su Yang turned and ran to the washbasin, took a mouthful of water, and rinsed off the foam.

Ruan Ziliang looked worried and whispered: "She won't make things difficult for you, will she?"

Previously, in the conversation between the few, he had learned of Dong Ya's true identity and intentions.

As the opposite side of the mole, Ruan Ziliang naturally classified her as a bad person.

"The Director just wants to chat with me, don't overthink it," Su Yang smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

Ruan Ziliang suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart; he opened his mouth but swallowed the words back.

Indeed, Su Yang had warned him more than once not to get involved in this matter.

As an outsider, all he could do was fulfill his obligations as a student.

But just as he lay on the bed, everything that happened tonight kept replaying in his mind.

Tossing and turning, he had no sleepiness at all.

At this moment, Su Yang stood alone outside the dorm manager's office, waiting for them to finish the dorm check.

The quiet boys' dormitory was wrapped in bleakness, and the slightly swaying trees revealed a hint of eeriness.

As if a monster were beckoning to him.

Su Yang kicked the stones on the ground and glanced at the old man inside.

He saw that he wasn't participating in the dorm check, but was lying quietly in the dark environment.

Seeing this, Su Yang subconsciously reached for the folding knife in his pocket, looked around, and quietly leaned toward the door.

He absolutely couldn't let this old man live past tonight!

However, just at this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came.

Su Yang put down the knife and followed the sound.

He saw Liu Bo walking over quickly and asking in a low voice: "You didn't do anything bad, did you?"

Su Yang thought seriously: "Does cutting in line for food count?"

"Don't be poor, I'm talking to you about serious business."

"Other than that, there's nothing else; I don't know what the Director wants to talk to me about either," Su Yang shrugged, looking innocent.

Liu Bo also felt that Dong Ya's actions and attitude were a bit inexplicable.

Logically speaking, brushing teeth at bedtime shouldn't be a heinous crime, yet she specifically named Su Yang to come out for 'punishment'.

Liu Bo was worried about his student, so he specifically made an excuse to get away and come over to vent.

"Don't be sloppy, stand straight," Liu Bo said seriously.

Su Yang obediently followed suit and said with a smile: "Teacher, you know, I've always been very obedient."

Liu Bo certainly knew that Su Yang's performance in the past two days had been very good.

He listened carefully in class and actively answered questions.

All the subject teachers had a good impression of him and praised him quite a bit.

His scores in the quizzes were also among the best in the class.

As a head teacher, he didn't want such a good seedling to 'die young'.

"Remember, answer whatever the Director asks later, don't talk back," Liu Bo warned.

"Okay."

At this moment, the head teacher of the next class beckoned to him, and Liu Bo nodded and left.

Su Yang looked at his slightly hunched back, and his brain couldn't help but recall his own green years.

Once upon a time, he was also the apple of the teacher's eye; even if he made a mistake, they would turn a blind eye.

This was the special treatment for excellent grades.

At this moment, he heard the concern in the other party's words, and a warm current flowed through his heart for the first time in a long time.

Gratitude was gratitude, but serious business couldn't be forgotten.

Su Yang was thanking Dong Ya for giving him a good opportunity, holding the folding knife and walking toward the dorm manager's office.

However, just at this moment, a burst of fire shot into the sky!

The raging flames looked particularly dazzling in the night, like a bright lamp.

"Fire!"

Accompanied by a scream, the entire boys' dormitory was thrown into chaos.

The disturbance didn't stop; many students rushed out of the dormitory to check, all with panic on their faces.

He saw the fire spreading rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, climbing into every corner like maggots on bones.

In just one minute, the fifth floor was enveloped in a sea of fire.

Students shouted to put out the fire, each picking up a fire extinguisher and rushing toward the fifth floor.

Su Yang realized that Li Zhangge had started to exert his strength!

"The Director and teachers are all on the fifth floor, hurry and call someone!" one person shouted loudly.

Once these words were spoken, the students swarmed out, quickly grabbing basins and buckets and rushing up.

The entire dormitory was in chaos, and screams and shouts poured out like a tide.

Su Yang stood quietly in the center of the crowd, his gaze fixed on the figure in the dorm manager's office.

With such a big fire, as the dorm manager, he remained indifferent.

In the chaos, Su Yang's shoulder was suddenly bumped by someone, and the person who bumped him fell to the ground instead.

He looked at Su Yang in horror, didn't say much, and climbed up to grab a bucket and run up.

However, in that instant, Su Yang looked up and saw that the dorm manager's office was empty.

"Where is he?"

He hurriedly pushed the door open and rushed in, only to see that the person in the room had disappeared as if evaporated.

Su Yang searched every corner but didn't find a secret passage.

At this moment, his gaze fell on the bed, and he lifted it with force.

He saw a large hole appearing in the center of the bed board, leading straight to the ground.

"I want to see where you can run."

Su Yang sneered repeatedly and jumped down.

Sliding a distance along the secret passage, he arrived at a damp underground space before long.

He scanned roughly and caught a glimpse of a familiar back.

The old man heard the movement, turned his head to see Su Yang's face, was so scared that his movements quickened, and he hurriedly ran inside.

Su Yang held the folding knife and immediately chased after him.

How could an old man's physical strength and fitness compare to a young man's?

The distance between the two sides quickly shortened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing that the escape had failed, the old man stopped his steps, out of breath: "Wait!"

Su Yang remained unmoved, killing intent bursting from his eyes, and he rushed forward to stab with a knife!

"Pfft!"

"Little beast!"
