At 8:10, Ji Xinyan was the last to get up.
After Lin Baici and the girls had a hearty breakfast, he took them back to school.
When Liu Zilu saw Lin Baici park the car at the school gate without the intention of going in, she asked out of curiosity.
"Class monitor, where do you plan to go after this?"
"I’m going to find a friend!"
Lin Baici smiled apologetically, "Sorry, driving into the school isn’t very appropriate, so I won’t take you in!"
"Are you subtly mocking ?"
Ji Xinyan picked a fight, her BMW X5 was indeed parked in the lot under the teaching building, provoking so gossip, but she didn’t care about such chit-chat.
"I..."
Lin Baici was about to explain when Ji Xinyan waved her hand, cutting him off.
"Alright, alright, just joking with you, go and enjoy your private ti!"
Ji Xinyan shouted to her friends, "Girls, I’ll go park first, let’s et at the small square in front of Block C!"
Block C was a teaching building primarily for various experints, with fewer people compared to the regularly used A and B Blocks.
So Ji Xinyan often parked her car over there.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Lin Baici drove to the parking lot of Yonghui Supermarket, took out his phone, and called his counselor.
"I’m at school!"
With only three days until the start of school, Gu Qingxiang had already officially started work, organizing various materials and preparing for the tasks of welcoming the new students.
"I might be busy until late these days!"
Gu Qingxiang took her work seriously without slacking off.
"Alright!"
After hanging up the phone, Lin Baici pondered for a while and found himself a bit bored. He couldn’t possibly go find Hua Yue Yu to play poker, right?
Finding his childhood friends wasn’t an option either. What if he ran into Jiang Yitong, and should they have a friendly match? If she thought he was deliberately trying to run into her, how embarrassing would that be?
Forget it!
Go find Xia Hongyao instead!
He would soon be going to Qinling for duty transition and realized he knew too little about Qin Palace Divine Ruins.
Although he had searched a lot of information from the Origin Forum, no matter how detailed that was, it couldn’t be as comprehensive as the Jiuzhou Security Bureau’s database. This ti he happened to go and check it out.
Lin Baici bought so snacks, then drove towards Haijing Headquarters.
Shafully, after joining the Security Bureau for nearly a year, he had barely worked a few days, slacking off to enjoy.
An hour later, Lin Baici arrived at the headquarters building.
Gurgle!
Before he even got out of the car, a strong hunger pang hit his stomach, making his mouth instinctively start watering, craving a feast to fill his belly.
"There must be lots of good stuff inside!"
Lin Baici muttered, thinking it might be a hassle getting in, expecting questions from security personnel, as he didn’t have his work ID with him.
Just as Lin Baici was considering calling Xia Hongyao to have her co down to et him, two soldiers at the guard post had already spotted him.
After a few seconds of confirmation, the soldier at the left gate imdiately stood at attention, turned around, and ran over in a standard marching posture.
Stopping in front of Lin Baici, he saluted first, then asked, "May I ask if you are Lin Baici, Lin Longyi?"
"Yeah!"
After Lin Baici replied, the soldier saluted once more.
"Thank you for your contribution to Jiuzhou!"
The soldier genuinely praised, "You don’t visit the headquarters often, so you might not be familiar with so departnts. Where would you like to go? Would you like to show you the way?"
This wasn’t the soldier flattering but the standard reception protocol at the headquarters.
Haijing is a large city, Dragon Wings from other places are sure to co here for business or visit. After confirming their identity, the sentry soldiers imdiately notify the headquarters’ civil personnel to co down and receive them.
Before that, they are responsible for taking good care of the Dragon Wing.
"I need to find Commander Xia, where does she usually work?"
Once again, Lin Baici underestimated his influence.
Being the Haijing god of forest, the youngest Nine Provinces Dragon Wing, not to ntion here, even at the headquarters in Shangjing, he’d receive the sa treatnt, no need to worry about not being recognized.
"Do you an Commander Xia Hongyao?"
The soldier introduced, "She usually works in the administrative building!"
"This way, please!"
The soldier was very curious about Lin Baici and had many questions he wanted to ask, but due to discipline, he didn’t ask, instead diligently leading the way.
Once he escorted Lin Baici into the hall and handed him over to the receptionist lady, the soldier saluted and left running.
"Wow, God Lin, you’re so handso, can I take a picture with you?"
The receptionist young lady, probably in her early twenties, was so excited upon seeing Lin Baici that she could barely speak coherently.
"It’s my honor!"
Lin Baici flashed a social smile, as bright as sunshine, causing the receptionist lady to feel dizzy and her heart to lt.
Soon, three receptionists gathered around, asking all sorts of questions, showing no fear or intimidation.
It was mainly because Lin Baici was too young, like the boy next door, without any sense of authority.
If it were a middle-aged man with inherent authority, the receptionist ladies would have shrunk back like quails, heads lowered.
After chatting for five minutes, Xia Hongyao, dressed in sportswear, hurriedly ran down.
"Why did you suddenly think of coming to work?"
The high ponytail looked surprised.
"Commander Xia!"
The ladies respectfully greeted, quickly putting away their joking faces, each holding their breath.
Xia Hongyao nodded in acknowledgnt, then led Lin Baici upstairs.
"I didn’t expect you to have quite an aura of authority!"
Lin Baici teased.
"They’re actually afraid of my sister!"
Xia Hongyao spoke frankly, "I don’t have any authority at all!"
