Chapter 357: Secret Chamber
While they were talking, the Principal was not idle.
After operating a few things, he opened a hidden door in the Principal's office.
Yes, inside the Principal's office, there was a secret room.
And Lilith's brother was temporarily hiding in this secret room.
Moreover, no one except the Principal knew that Lilith's brother was at Puta-ta Academy.
Not the teachers or the students in the school.
This was not because the Principal was worried that the students or teachers in the school would betray him.
It was just that, firstly, this matter was too big, and the letter from Bibabu City instructed that it must be kept secret.
Secondly, out of caution, he did not want to implicate more people if the matter were exposed.
So he hid Lilith's brother all by himself and did not tell anyone.
Because of this, although Lilith's brother failed to take the evidence out.
He had lived safely until now.
No matter how thoroughly the members of that mysterious force searched the town, they could not find his tracks.
Although the secret room was small, it was fully equipped; at the very least, Lilith's brother did not live in a wretched state inside.
"My lord Principal."
Although he saw the Principal bring a few people in, Lilith's brother did not suspect that the Principal had succumbed to pressure and decided to hand him over.
Instead, he trusted the Principal wholeheartedly.
And the moment he saw the Principal, he stood up and bowed respectfully.
However, his respect for the Principal was also well-deserved.
After all, the person who had protected him at all costs in a desperate situation was the Principal of Puta-ta Academy.
"No need for formalities; I have brought you good news this time."
The Principal waved his hand casually, not caring about these empty courtesies.
"These few are students from Bibabu Academy in Bibabu City."
"Because they sensed the changes that might occur in Beluna Town, they were sent to investigate."
"Once the investigation is complete, Bibabu City will send reinforcements."
"Really? That is truly wonderful."
"I have concrete evidence here proving that Beluna Town has been controlled by a mysterious force."
After hearing the Principal's words, Lilith's brother said with great excitement.
His whole person became agitated.
One cannot blame him for poor emotional control or being overly excited.
It was because of this matter that his entire family had been wiped out.
To preserve the evidence and send it out.
His sister's life and death were unknown, and he lived in a life-and-death crisis every day, enduring all kinds of hardships.
Now that he finally saw a glimmer of hope, it would be abnormal not to be excited.
"That's right, we already know about your situation."
"Your sister is now under the protection of our people and will not be in any danger."
"The evidence is in your sister's hands, and you can return to Bibabu City with us at any time to hand the evidence to the Lord."
"The most important thing now is how to get you safely out of Beluna Town."
Lin'an's words gave Lilith's brother a shot of adrenaline, allowing him to completely set his mind at ease regarding his sister's safety.
"You don't have to take me out; I just need to hand the evidence to you, and you can take it out of the town."
Being able to do this already proved that Lilith's brother was a brave, upright, and kind person.
So it was not strange that he would say such things.
He was willing to sacrifice himself just so the evidence could reach Bibabu City a step earlier.
Who knew, after hearing this, Lin'an did not agree, but just smiled and said.
"You have probably misunderstood one point."
"No one ever said that we must wait for the evidence to reach Bibabu City before the people of Bibabu City can deal with the situation in Beluna Town."
"Beluna Town is already under the jurisdiction of Bibabu City; once the Lord gives the order, we can deal with the situation in Beluna Town regardless of whether there is evidence or not."
"Just before we made contact with Lilith and understood part of the ins and outs of the matter, and saw the evidence, we already sent someone to rush back to the city overnight to report the news."
"So, the reinforcements in the city should have already set out; it is just that because the distance is far, it will take a few more days to arrive."
"We are in a hurry to take you away from here because if we don't find you soon, I fear the people of that force will turn their gaze toward Puta-ta Academy."
"At that time, either the Principal will have to hand you over, or everyone in the entire academy will be in danger."
"Unless you are truly not here, and the Principal dares to let them search Puta-ta Academy freely."
"Therefore, we want to take you away from here as soon as possible, not for the evidence in your hands."
Lin'an's words were extremely humane, yet extremely overbearing.
From this, one can also see the authority of Bibabu City in this region.
With things said to this point, Lilith's brother naturally could not say anything more.
He just expressed his sincere gratitude.
"Since the next steps have been decided, the question is, how do we get him out?"
Although Qin Feng felt that these students from Bibabu City should have some backup plans.
Even so, he feared this would not be an easy thing to accomplish.
"That's right, this is indeed a big problem. Currently, the entire Beluna Town is under martial law."
"Even the Mayor of Beluna Town, who reached Level 6 Skywalker strength, could not escape their lethal blow."
"Presumably, there must be stronger powerhouses sitting in the town."
"Sending him out of the city is clearly not very possible."
The Principal, who had remained in Beluna Town, naturally knew the situation in the city best at this moment.
He also knew that the Mayor, with strength as high as Level 6, had met a tragic end while trying to quietly protect Lilith's brother as he entered the academy.
No one knew this better than the Principal and Lilith's brother.
Therefore, they understood even better how difficult this matter was.
"It is precisely because we considered that there might be danger in Beluna Town that not only the few of us came, but a mentor also accompanied us."
"The mentor is currently waiting at the inn. And I have been using the Sound-Transmission Stone to record the events here and play them for the mentor."
"So he already knows our situation here, and he will enter here soon. Please wait a moment, my lord Principal."
"Rest assured, since we dared to come, we definitely have enough trump cards to ensure our own safety."
"Likewise, we also ensure that we can send out certain things we have obtained."
"Originally, we only came to investigate the situation and collect evidence, but we didn't expect the turmoil to erupt so early."
"Since that is the case, the method for sending out the evidence can also be used to send people out. It's just that there is only one chance."
After all, they were students and a mentor from an intermediate academy.
What kind of things hadn't they seen? Naturally, they were well-prepared.
Lin'an's words allowed everyone to breathe a sigh of relief.
Feeling that they could finally set their minds at ease.
But Qin Feng still couldn't be completely at ease.
Because his task content was to bring Lilith back to Beluna Town to meet with her brother.
That is to say, at the time of the meeting, the people present must be Lilith, Lilith's brother, and Qin Feng.
But now only Qin Feng and Lilith's brother were here.
So this task could not yet be considered complete.
And if Lilith's brother were taken out to reunite with Lilith.
Then only Lilith and her brother would be present, and Qin Feng would not be there.
So the task still could not be considered complete.
To complete this task, Qin Feng had to find a way to leave Beluna Town as well.
And reunite with Lilith and her brother, the three of them together.
Only then could the task be considered complete.
Moreover, after completing the task, he would also have to follow the two of them to Bibabu City.
To hand the evidence to the Lord; only then would it be finished.
