Gatekeeper Of All Realms Chapter 30

He suddenly noticed two knights looking at him, waiting for his response, so he immediately changed his mood and said with great passion:

“Many thanks to His Royal Highness. I will definitely work hard and strive to serve the country in the future!”

The two knights nodded in satisfaction.

“You can either travel with the troops returning to the imperial capital, or you can go back on your own. In short, take this letter to the Imperial Military Academy to report, understood?”

“Understood!” Shen Ye said.

“And this, take it.”

A small bag was placed in Shen Ye’s hand.

“Child, do well!”

The knights completed their mission, mounted their horses, and galloped towards the camp.

Shen Ye weighed the small bag.

The pleasant jingle of coins came from the bag.

Thanks for the Prince’s kindness.

With these coins, his living expenses in this world would be enough.

The gold he had just obtained from the Hand of Shadow could be taken back to supplement the family’s income.

“Let’s go, it’s time for us to depart.”

Shen Ye muttered to himself.

He simply did not enter the camp again, turning and walking towards the depths of the dense forest.

Tens of minutes later.

“There should be no one else around,” Big Skeleton said.

“Okay.”

Shen Ye opened the door, stepped in, and returned to his dormitory in the real world.

So tired!

Shen Ye took a shower, thoroughly washing off the blood and mud, opened the refrigerator, took out drinks and snacks, and while eating, looked at the clock on the wall.

It was already past noon.

Time flies!

After eating and drinking for a while, Shen Ye pulled out his phone and turned it on.

If his phone was on and people couldn’t reach him, it might lead to some unnecessary speculation.

—Turning it off meant he was busy.

Ding ding ding ding ding—

As soon as the phone was turned on, a series of notification sounds rang out.

Of course, he had to reply to his parents’ messages immediately.

Shen Ye called directly and lied without changing his expression:

“Mom? I was in a supplementary class at the group this morning, I didn’t bring my phone, and I just got back to the dorm after class.”

“So that’s it, I thought so too,” Zhao Xiaoshang breathed a sigh of relief on the other end of the phone. “Are you coming home for dinner these days?”

“No, by the way, Mom, let me tell you, I get a subsidy as soon as I join the group.”

Shen Ye mentioned a figure.

He did have a subsidy, but not as high as that figure.

“It’s that much? It really is a big group, that’s great. Your dad and I were just discussing giving you some living expenses.”

Zhao Xiaoshang was surprised, then breathed another sigh of relief.

“No need at all—the group gives such a high subsidy, I can’t even spend it all. Why don’t you two take it first and fill the hole from buying the Medulla Enhancing Pills?” Shen Ye said.

“It’s your own money, you keep it,” Zhao Xiaoshang said.

“Mom, I’m afraid I won’t be able to resist buying some games and comic books, and I might even buy other unnecessary things, but the exams are coming up soon…” Shen Ye said.

“Transfer the money to me in a bit, just keep enough for yourself to eat,” Zhao Xiaoshang immediately said.

“Okay, I’m not talking to you anymore, I’m going to the company cafeteria for lunch.”

“Remember to keep in touch with us.”

“Mm.”

The call ended.

The corners of Shen Ye’s mouth curved slightly.

In the past, he was an orphan, wandering alone in the world, and the hardships and difficulties he faced were self-evident.

In this life, he really enjoyed this kind of life where people cared for each other and missed each other.

He changed his clothes and continued to check his phone messages.

Many classmates sent congratulations.

It seems the school has started to publicize it.

Even Zhao Yibing sent a message with a photo:

“Wuwuwu, it’s all my fault, Shen Ye, please forgive me, how about I go to the movies with you tonight?”

The photo was her artistic headshot.

It was indeed beautiful.

Shen Ye admired it for a while, then slowly typed a reply:

“Face reality, Bingbing, I’m the swan meat you’ll never get a taste of.”

After sending the message, he stretched, feeling that everything was so wonderful.

—First, go exchange money!

Shen Ye skillfully went to the group’s internal financial services institution and converted the gold into digital currency.

It amounted to about sixty to seventy thousand.

Shen Ye only kept a few thousand, transferring the rest to Zhao Xiaoshang.

—Buying the Medulla Enhancing Pills cost about sixteen thousand, and this money just filled the gap.

Now the family wouldn’t have to struggle.

Next, go eat!

Shen Ye was in a great mood, walking and continuing to check his phone.

“Strange.”

He re-read his phone messages twice, and suddenly noticed something.

His original self’s best friend, comrade-in-arms, Chen Haoyu, who grew up with him, hadn’t sent any messages from last night until now.

What happened to him?

Ding!

His phone suddenly vibrated.

“Brother Ye, congratulations on signing with Human Martial Arts Group, let’s celebrate tonight?”

Chen Haoyu sent a message.

Shen Ye put down his phone and thought for a moment.

Celebrate…

Logically, it should be celebrated.

But he was currently facing an assassination attempt from the Assassin’s Alliance, and leaving the group rashly for activities outside was unsafe.

However, Chen Haoyu was kindly celebrating for him—

During middle school, classmates didn’t have too many calculations between them.

Friendship was pure.

He also longed to maintain this friendship.

Shen Ye pondered for a moment, then typed a reply:

“We should celebrate, but you’re about to take your second exam. After you finish your second exam, let’s have a meal together.”

He sent the message.

A few seconds later, the other party’s message came again:

“Brother Ye, take me on a tour of Human Martial Arts Group today. That’s my dream place, just let me see it.”

Shen Ye quickly replied: “Come on, we can eat together.”

The group should be safe. Since he wanted to come, why not show him around?

“Okay, I’ll be right there, ten minutes at most.”

Chen Haoyu said.

All messages had been replied to.

Shen Ye put away his phone and took the elevator down to the first-floor lobby of the group building.

He sat on the wide, comfortable sofa in the lobby, legs crossed, bored, waiting.

This was the central office of the Human Martial Arts Group in the five southeastern provinces, and people came and went in an endless stream.

After watching for a while, Shen Ye spotted some very powerful professionals in the crowd.

His observation naturally attracted the attention of those professionals.

However, when they realized it was a teenager, they all looked at him kindly.

“You’re the new recruit this year?”

A stout man over two meters tall asked.

“Ah, yes. I’m sorry, should I not have stared at you?” Shen Ye said.

“It’s fine,” the stout man’s face showed a nostalgic look. “When I was selected and came in as a rookie, I also stood here and watched the professionals inside the group, just like you.”

“Are you looking forward to the future?” Shen Ye asked.

“No, at that time, I thought they were all very arrogant, and I wanted to beat every arrogant person to death,” the stout man answered seriously.

Shen Ye was stunned.

Are people in this world so uninhibited? Don’t they understand our traditional virtues…

Shen Ye then seemed to realize something.

Oh, this isn’t his world.

His expression amused the stout man.

“Keep it up, junior!”

The stout man burst into laughter, waved at Shen Ye, and turned to leave for the barracks.

After a while.

A tall, slender woman with long hair, wearing tight jeans and two revolvers at her waist, walked in from the door and said softly:

“Shen Ye, a boy named Chen Haoyu is looking for you. His identity has been verified. Should I let him in?”

“He’s my classmate, please let him in,” Shen Ye stood up and said.

“Okay, stay here, I’ll bring him over right away,” the lady said.

“No need!”

Shen Ye didn’t want to be treated like a child, so he quickly waved his hand and said, “I’ll go get him myself.”

“No, little brother. Manager Qian said you seem to be in some trouble right now, so we need to protect you.”

The lady gave him a gentle smile, took long strides, and walked towards the lobby entrance.

Shen Ye was a bit dejected.

He didn’t get to be a son, but he ended up as a “little brother”.

Being a son would have been better.

The stout man happened to be leaving and saw the lady approach, so he quickly greeted her:

“Wenna, you’re on duty today? Are you free for dinner tonight?”

“Get lost,” the lady glared at him.

“If you don’t want to eat, then don’t eat. Why be so fierce?” the stout man grumbled awkwardly.

“If you talk nonsense again, I’ll skin you, just like that pervert I killed a few days ago,” Wenna said.

The stout man seemed to remember something, his expression changed, he lowered his head, not saying a word, and walked away quickly, disappearing in a flash.

Wenna, meanwhile, went to the entrance and led a tall, thin young man into the lobby.

“Thank you, sister,” Shen Ye greeted Wenna.

“You’re welcome, just call whenever you need something,” Wenna smiled and turned to leave.

Only Chen Haoyu remained standing in front of Shen Ye.

He was wearing a school uniform and looking around continuously.

“Wow, this place is really magnificent. My eyes aren’t enough to take it all in.”

Chen Haoyu exclaimed.

Shen Ye smiled and said, “You can come here to find me anytime you want to in the future.”

“Brother Ye, that’s awesome! Directly signing with the Human Martial Arts Group, you have no idea how big of a sensation it caused at school.” Chen Haoyu gave a thumbs up.

“Let’s not talk about that for now. Come on, I’ll take you to the group cafeteria,” Shen Ye said.

“I’m not hungry yet. I want to see where you live,” Chen Haoyu said.

“That’s fine too,” Shen Ye said.

The two walked to the elevator. Just as the elevator arrived and the doors opened, several other professionals filed in. Shen Ye and Chen Haoyu also got into the elevator.

There were too many people.

The two were pushed apart, each standing in a corner.

The professionals were chattering, seemingly having just completed a mission, discussing it excitedly.

Chen Haoyu listened with interest to their accounts.

Shen Ye stood in the other corner, silently waiting for the elevator to reach its destination. UU Reading www.uukanｓhu.net

Suddenly.

His phone vibrated in his pocket.

He took out his phone and saw a message from Xiao Mengyu:

“The eyewitness nurse is missing, but I found a badly disfigured Corpse, though its build doesn’t match the nurse, which is very puzzling.”

“Professional agencies are currently conducting identification on the Corpse.”

“I suspect this Corpse has some connection to you, that it was someone silenced, so I re-investigated your surroundings.”

“Did you find anything?” Shen Ye typed a line and sent it back.

A new message quickly arrived from the other side:

“Everyone else is fine, but take a look at this.”

A surveillance video.

Shen Ye clicked on it and saw that it was a hallway surveillance video from the school yesterday.

The time displayed was 9:37 AM yesterday.

A person appeared in the school building hallway, walking around and looking.

The video played in fast-forward.

The person first checked the restrooms on various floors, then went all the way to the top floor of the school building, checking the empty classrooms as well.

In the video, he found nothing and left the school building disappointed.

Shen Ye watched the video, then silently closed his phone.

Yesterday morning—

What was I doing?

That’s right, I had Chen Haoyu help me queue, then I went to the empty classroom on the top floor and entered the Nightmare World through the door.

So, in this surveillance video, Chen Haoyu searched the entire school building but couldn’t find me.

Why was he looking for me?
