Continuing with his words, instead of speaking further, Shen Huaizhi glanced at Jiang Heng and took out a thick stack of papers from his backpack, handing it to Jiang Heng. “Information about those drug dealers.”
Jiang Heng lowered his head and looked puzzled, “?”
“If you want to investigate, just continue.” Shen Huaizhi seemed somewhat helpless. “All the information is here, including their previous criminal records.”
Jiang Heng hesitated, “Give me this…” What for?
He wasn’t actually interested in investigating those drug dealers; he was more concerned about what Lin Lan had bought.
“The information is all here. However, that person from before probably won’t appear in the vicinity for a short period.” Shen Huaizhi lowered his gaze. “If you want to inquire about him, it might be a bit difficult.”
With his words, Jiang Heng almost forgot that he had been misunderstood by Shen Huaizhi just now due to the drug dealer’s matter.
Just now.
After returning home, Jiang Heng sighed as he looked at the pile of data on the table. He saw densely packed text that made his scalp tingle, not to mention the miscellaneous life stories. They had nothing to do with him, and he couldn’t bring himself to study them.
This person was really annoying.
Annoying to the point that Jiang Heng had almost completely suppressed his temper.
Because he had played a satisfying game of basketball in the evening, Jiang Heng was already quite tired. However, after taking a shower and lying down, the pain in his waist started to throb.
In the middle of the night, he got up again, his face black as he took out the thick stack of paper that Shen Huaizhi had given him.
A few minutes later.
Jiang Heng sighed as he looked at the blank paper filled with white and black text: transaction records, time, location, surveillance video location, and screenshots of surveillance video.
He felt that Shen Huaizhi was mocking him.
As for why Shen Huaizhi had this information, it was currently completely outside of Jiang Heng’s consideration.
[Water Worker King Line: What will happen when a hero discovers that what he did wasn’t heroic at all, but rather unnecessary?]
At midnight, still playing games, He Ci: ????
[Water Worker King Line: He would choose to assassinate the person who knew about these things.]
[He Ci: Dad, what’s wrong, Dad?]
[Water Worker King Line: Why are there surveillance cameras outside of the school?]
This wasn’t the point; the point was why Lin Lan, that idiot, chose a place with surveillance cameras for the transaction and even got completely recorded.
[He Ci: …There seems to be one at the main entrance; it looks like a decoration? I’ve never seen it open, and I even flipped it off in front of the surveillance]
[Water Worker King Line: Oh, it’s not a decoration; it’s open.]
[He Ci: ???? How do you know]
Jiang Heng suddenly felt a lot more balanced.
After struggling for a while, he still sent a message to Shen Huaizhi.
[Water Worker King Line: Class Monitor, I’ve finished reading it; it’s very enlightening.]
After sending it, he looked at the time. It was 1 am, and with Shen Huaizhi’s personality, he probably had already fallen asleep.
Before he could put down his phone, it vibrated.
Jiang Heng yawned and opened it.
[Water Worker King Line: Good.]
Jiang Heng: …? What does this “good” mean?
He gritted his teeth. If he didn’t know that Shen Huaizhi really wasn’t that kind of person, he would have suspected that the other was openly mocking him. Before he could ask, Shen Huaizhi sent another message.
[Shen Huaizhi: It’s the same as what you found.]
Jiang Heng paused at his fingertips.
[Shen Huaizhi: Originally, I didn’t think of this. I just followed your train of thought and checked it out.]
Jiang Heng: ?
Who is he trying to fool?
Shen Huaizhi realized that he had only been with the drug dealer for a short time. These pieces of information were obviously not something that could be obtained in such a short period. He probably had already checked them before.
Probably, he had already found out that something was wrong with Lin Lan earlier.
Jiang Heng had an expressionless face and suddenly felt unwell.
Shen Huaizhi never intended to involve him in this matter from the beginning. Therefore, even if he found out something, he didn’t tell Jiang Heng. On the contrary, he insisted on being a hero.
Jiang Heng touched his slightly prickly hair.
[Water Worker King Line: Class Monitor, are you trying to comfort me?]
Comforting a child.
[Shen Huaizhi: I’m sorry.]
[Shen Huaizhi: I lied just now.]
Jiang Heng witnessed someone admitting to lying so quickly for the first time. The sense of powerlessness he felt just now suddenly disappeared.
[Water Worker King Line: Why admit it? We soft little Omegas are easy to deceive.]
[Shen Huaizhi: I didn’t mean to deceive you.]
It seemed like he rarely encountered this kind of situation. The chat box continuously displayed “typing,” and Jiang Heng smiled. After waiting for a long time, he finally received a new message.
[Shen Huaizhi: No blame for you doing this, just hope you won’t do such dangerous things alone; it’s very risky.]
[Shen Huaizhi: Regarding Lin Lan’s matter, my family has been investigating. I originally planned to tell you directly after getting results.]
[Shen Huaizhi: I didn’t mean to keep it from you; you have the right to know.]
It was rare to see Shen Huaizhi send so many words. Jiang Heng wasn’t sleepy at all.
The other was still typing, and he found it somewhat amusing.
It seemed like an urgent explanation, but it also felt unlikely. Most likely, it was because he thought this was a place where he needed to explain clearly.
[Shen Huaizhi: I couldn’t contact you on the two days you didn’t come to school.]
Jiang Heng blinked.
[Water Worker King Line: Class Monitor, you asked me this morning why I didn’t come to class.] Only one message.
At that time, he was still chatting with the drug dealer and hadn’t had time to reply.
Shen Huaizhi continued to “type” for a long time.
[Shen Huaizhi: In the future, don’t do such dangerous things alone. If there’s anything, you can find me.]
He seemed to have thought for a long time before sending it, and he didn’t respond to Jiang Heng’s previous sentence.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Jiang Heng was stunned for a moment, covering his forehead.
[Water Worker King Line: Okay, brother, is this considered a responsibility?]
Regardless of whether it was due to the class monitor’s responsibility or the responsibility to take care of himself as promised.
After thinking for a while, Jiang Heng added.
[Water Worker King Line: Then, big brother, take good care of delicate me.]
Shen Huaizhi’s typing motion paused.
He had rarely stayed up so late in his life. The room’s lights dimmed, and the book he had used to pass the time was casually placed near the bed. Although his attitude seemed business-like, it was merciless.
Lin Lan suddenly panicked, “I didn’t do anything. I really just passed by and got influenced by you!”
“I was about to enter the heat period, so isn’t it normal to be influenced by you?”
Shen Huaizhi stepped back, “Our pheromone compatibility is one percent, which means that under normal circumstances, neither your pheromones nor mine can affect each other.” The lower the compatibility, the less influence an Alpha-Omega (AO) pair has on each other.
Not to mention, influencing the other into entering the heat period.
If it weren’t for this incident, he wouldn’t have bothered checking their pheromone compatibility. His pheromone level was too high, and the compatibility with regular Omega pheromones was very low. That was why he wasn’t initially concerned and didn’t plan to involve Jiang Heng too much.
Because this matter itself couldn’t affect him.
He tilted his body slightly, as if looking towards the window.
Jiang Heng crouched down like a thief.
One percent, that was quite low.
“I didn’t mean to!” Lin Lan suddenly raised her voice.
Jiang Heng subconsciously covered his ears. At her volume, if she continued shouting, it might attract the teachers from the adjacent office.
“I just like you.” Lin Lan looked at Shen Huaizhi with deep infatuation. “Only an Omega like me is worthy of you. I just want you to mark me…”
“You can only mark me.”
“An Omega like Jiang Heng, not good-looking, with a bad temper…”
The door to the storage room moved.
Shen Huaizhi took another step back, not even looking at Lin Lan. Instead, a faintly discernible smile appeared on his lips.
The door was lightly kicked by Jiang Heng, and it swung against the wall, swaying gently. Lin Lan looked terrified as an Omega, who seemed unconcerned, entered.
Perhaps to prevent the door from making too much noise, Jiang Heng stretched his leg to support the door panel.
There was a hint of amusement in Jiang Heng’s eyes, and his expression looked mocking. His eyelids drooped, appearing somewhat drowsy. He glanced at Lin Lan and pulled the corner of his mouth.
“What’s wrong with an Omega like me?”
His tone was quite light. After saying that, he glanced at Lin Lan again. Then, very quickly, he stepped behind Shen Huaizhi, as if hiding behind him. He leaned against the sweetness of the drink at the corner of his lips.
With half his head showing on Shen Huaizhi’s shoulder, he provocatively smiled, “I’m not good-looking, have a bad temper, am delicate, need the class monitor to protect me on the way home, and even get talked about by other Omegas behind my back.”
He sounded particularly aggrieved.
