Chapter 33 Shanghai Conservatory of Music
Through constant self-hypnosis, Guan Hai told himself that although he had become a monster, at least his right hand had been healed. As long as he didn't use the monster's power in the future, he could still live as a human.
Thinking this, Guan Hai felt much better. Like many others who suddenly gained Orphnoch powers, he resolved never to use them again. (But many things can't be solved simply by wanting to!)
As this thought took root in Guan Hai's mind, a look of relief gradually appeared on his face.
He began to try to adjust his mindset and emotions, and to get himself out of the gloom he had been in.
After the holiday, he will tell his teacher the good news that his right hand has recovered, and he believes that his teacher will be happy for him.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the holiday at Shanghai Conservatory of Music is over.
The campus is bustling again as students return to school to prepare for the new semester.
Guan Hai lives in the music department dormitory of Shanghai Conservatory of Music. Since the music major is the school's flagship major, he lives alone in a dormitory room without any other roommates.
During his few days of vacation, Guan Hai gradually regained his confidence and picked up his guitar again, gently strumming it with his once-injured right hand.
Since the car accident that injured his right hand, he has been in despair and wasted too much precious time.
Guan Hai once won first prize in the Ming Dynasty's national guitar competition for the first time and was hailed as a musical genius.
However, after he was in a car accident and injured his right hand, doctors determined through surgery that he would have difficulty fully recovering.
Faced with this result, many music masters felt sorry for him, but only his teacher stood up to encourage him to persevere in his postoperative rehabilitation and that he would definitely be able to return to his peak.
But I have let my teacher down. Now that my right hand has recovered, of course I should go and thank my teacher!
So when the music department started classes, Guan Hai also took his guitar and walked towards the music department building.
……
Meanwhile, on the other side, at the foot of the Shanghai Special Affairs Bureau building, Director He personally led a team to stand at the main entrance to welcome the support dispatched by the Beijing General Bureau.
After waiting for about ten minutes, a black convoy with the Special Affairs Bureau logo drove up to the entrance of the Hai City Special Affairs Bureau and stopped.
The lead vehicle slowly came to a stop, and then the door opened, and a tall man got out.
He was wearing a black combat uniform specially made by the Special Operations Bureau, and he looked exceptionally energetic.
Upon seeing the man, Director He immediately smiled.
He strode forward, shook hands firmly with the man, and said warmly, "It's such a trouble for you, Comrade Su Qian. It's so kind of you to come all the way from Harbin to Haishi to support us. On behalf of the Haishi Special Affairs Bureau, I am extremely grateful!"
That's right, the person who came to support Hai City was Su Qian, a faiz armor user who had only recently joined the Special Operations Bureau.
It turns out that immediately after the Faiz team was successfully formed, they joined forces with the Kaixa team to launch an operation around Harbin to eliminate the scattered Orphnochs.
Furthermore, at the instruction of the King of the Orphnochs, the Lion and Tiger Orphnochs began to gather the surrounding Orphnochs and lie in wait.
This has led to a sharp decrease in the number of Orphinos around Harbin, and Su Qian and Zheng Zhongshan have fewer and fewer opportunities to be deployed.
At this moment, Hong Tao received a document from the Special Operations Bureau of the Imperial Capital, requesting him to send personnel to Haishi to provide support.
Considering that the situation around Harbin had been brought under control, Hong Tao decided to leave the Kaixa team to remain stationed in Harbin as a precaution.
At the same time, he ordered Su Qian to lead the FAZ team to Hai City to assist the local Special Operations Bureau in dealing with potential threats.
After receiving the mission, Su Qian quickly organized a team and led them to Hai City.
Upon hearing Director He's words, Su Qian smiled politely and bowed slightly in response, "Director He, you flatter us. We only rushed here after receiving orders from the Capital Special Operations Bureau. It's all part of our duty, and there's really no question of hardship."
"Haha, Captain Su Qian is too modest. However, we are really grateful that you could come and help us this time."
Director He laughed heartily, then changed the subject and became serious.
"Alright, Captain Su Qian, I won't keep you in suspense any longer. The Orphnoch area in Hai City has suddenly become quiet lately, and I feel like it's the calm before the storm. I'll explain the details to you in my office. Please come with me!" With that, Director He strode forward, leading Su Qian away.
……
Meanwhile, after getting leave from school, Zeng Qixia went to the entrance of the Shanghai Conservatory of Music based on a school badge she found at the scene where she killed the squid Orphnoch. Through her parents' connections, she also gained access to the university to investigate clues.
The scene shifts back to Guan Hai. Just as he happily enters the music department building, he discovers a boy in a corner of the corridor, hugging a guitar and sobbing with his head down.
As Guan Hai observed from the side, he found the boy increasingly familiar. He approached and called out softly, "Xiao Shi, it's class time. What are you doing here? Didn't the teacher call you?"
When the boy heard someone calling his name, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve. Then he looked up at the person who had called him.
When he saw that the person who came was Guan Hai, a hint of surprise and excitement flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up. He happily exclaimed, "Brother Guan Hai! How come it's you?"
"I haven't seen you in so long! I even asked the teacher about you, but she always told me you went on a trip to relax." The boy said, quickly walking towards Guan Hai to hug him, his eyes full of joy and anticipation!
Seeing this, Guan Hai opened his arms and hugged him, gently patting Xiao Shi's back and saying, "Alright, alright, you're almost a grown man now, do you still think you're like a child from a few years ago?"
Guan Hai then put Xiao Shi down and said with a serious expression, "Xiao Shi, you still haven't answered my question from before. Why didn't you go to class during class time?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shi's smile gradually faded, and he lowered his head, not daring to look Guan Hai in the eye.
Seeing this, Guan Hai shouted at him directly: "Xiao Shi! Didn't you say that the guitar was your dream? Didn't you say that you wanted to surpass me and achieve greater success? You should know best how much you gave up for it back then!"
Look at yourself now. This is the best time for you to improve. The national guitar competition is about to begin, and you can't even attend lessons. How can you expect to surpass me?
