Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Repay Kindness
Qin Siyang originally wanted to talk to the principal in person.
The principal should now be at the school gate, knocked out by Qin Siyang, lying beside the grade director, watching the doctor treat his injuries. He probably didn't have time.
It shouldn't be a problem to ask other teachers in the cafeteria to pass on a message.
"I believe that our [Ju'an School], as the only school on the edge of the Safe Zone, integrating elementary, middle, and high school education, has the most important duty not in cultivating talent, but in fostering morality."
This official-sounding opening from Qin Siyang shocked the other teachers.
This… was this still the same student who would bluntly say "get lost" when things didn't go his way?
How could he say such mature words?
Could he be schizophrenic?
But no teacher dared to say this aloud. His homeroom teacher was still lying on the ground—who would dare provoke this most terrifying figure in the Safe Zone?
"If we lack proper moral education, then when our students step out of campus and enter society, they will inevitably be educated by society itself. Worse, they might even bring shame to our alma mater. This is not something we students want to see, nor is it something any of you teachers want to see."
The teachers secretly muttered to themselves—Qin Siyang's official tone was actually quite polished. His speech was no different from what school leaders would say.
If one didn't know better, they might think the principal was the one giving a lecture to the teachers.
But why was Qin Siyang saying all this?
After a brief pause, Qin Siyang continued, "Where is the Director of Moral Education?"
Everyone looked toward a bald, middle-aged man with a face full of fat.
That man stood up with a forced smile, "Student Qin, that would be me."
As he got up, he almost stumbled. The smile on his face couldn't hide his inner panic.
"You are the Director of Moral Education. Do you think you are competent?"
"This…", Meeting Qin Siyang's cold gaze, he immediately realized the student's dissatisfaction and hurriedly reflected on himself, "I am not competent. Over the years as the Director of Moral Education, I have had many shortcomings. I will definitely improve in the future…"
"There's no need to wait for the future. I have been in this school for so many years, and I didn't even know what the Director of Moral Education looked like. I am in a terrible mood right now, and that's because the school's moral education work is inadequate—which, at its core, is inseparable from you. As for your position as Director of Moral Education, you should step down and let someone more suitable take over. I believe you agree with me, don't you?"
Qin Siyang sounded like he was asking for his opinion, yet he left no room for negotiation. As he spoke, he even deliberately kicked the homeroom teacher lying on the ground twice, as if implying something.
The Director of Moral Education's face scrunched into deep wrinkles. In the end, his attachment to his position couldn't outweigh his fear of death. He nodded, "Yes, I did a poor job. I should step down as Director of Moral Education."
Qin Siyang nodded, "Acknowledging mistakes and correcting them is a good thing. As for the new Director of Moral Education, I believe Aunt Zhang from the cafeteria is the most suitable candidate. She always encourages students while serving meals and takes special care of students like me who come from poor backgrounds. She leads by example—isn't she the best role model for moral education? Therefore, I will nominate Aunt Zhang to be our new Director of Moral Education."
Standing alone, Qin Siyang swept his gaze across all the teachers. Wherever his eyes landed, the teachers quickly looked away.
"I hope you all will pass this message to the principal. Otherwise, I'm afraid my temper will get the better of me, and I might do something I shouldn't."
Hearing this, the teachers immediately nodded, eager to get rid of this harbinger of disaster as soon as possible, "We will definitely pass on the message. Absolutely! Not only will we pass it on, but we also support Student Qin's opinion."
At this moment, the teachers finally understood why Qin Siyang had set up such an elaborate speech—he wanted Aunt Zhang, who served meals in the cafeteria, to take the position.
Qin Siyang, having awakened as a Sequence Ability User, had already become an untouchable entity.
His only restriction was that he couldn't kill students or public officials.
However, not all teachers in the school were public officials. In [Ju'an School], only the principal held a public office, while the rest of the teachers were contracted employees.
This meant that Qin Siyang could kill one or two teachers at will and would only face punishment of the God Hunting for his actions.
Of course, he couldn't go too far and slaughter all the teachers—doing so would still make the Sequence Ability User Administration classify him as a threat to the Safe Zone, which would result in his execution.
With such privileged protection, naturally, no teacher dared to oppose him.
And as for Qin Siyang demanding the position of Director of Moral Education, the principal had no reason to refuse.
Because Qin Siyang seemed like a madman.
The principal had seen too many teenagers in their early teens who, due to ignorance and fearlessness, committed shocking crimes.
He didn't dare to gamble on whether Qin Siyang was a normal person, nor did he dare to gamble on whether Qin Siyang feared the laws of the Safe Zone.
As long as he could appease Qin Siyang, the principal would spare no cost.
Qin Siyang was very satisfied with the teachers' actions. He turned back and leaned into the meal-serving window, looking at Aunt Zhang, who had no idea what was going on.
"Aunt Zhang, I have nominated you to the principal for the position of Director of Moral Education. If nothing unexpected happens, the principal should agree. From now on, I hope you will continue to show me the same kindness."
Aunt Zhang hesitated and said, "This… My family's situation isn't good. I dropped out of school and started working before finishing middle school. I have no knowledge, no education—how can I be a high-ranking leader?"
"It's not that complicated. Aunt Zhang, in a rundown school like ours on the edge of the Safe Zone, there are only two ironclad rules for becoming a leader: either you have no conscience, or you have connections."
"Then I…"
"You are a person with a conscience," After saying this, Qin Siyang picked up three meal boxes and left.
Only Aunt Zhang remained, holding her serving spoon, still not fully understanding what had just happened.
Qin Siyang carried the meal boxes to the library, where he saw Teacher Zhu organizing bookshelves and Wen Shu studying at a desk.
Wen Shu had a faint smile on her face, seemingly in a good mood.
Meanwhile, Teacher Zhu's gaze carried a hint of complexity when she saw Qin Siyang.
Qin Siyang placed the meal boxes on the table, "I got breakfast from the cafeteria. Wen Shu, Teacher Zhu, let's eat together."
He had even brought an extra portion for Teacher Zhu. Since she was a rehired teacher, she didn't receive the same benefits as regular teachers and couldn't have breakfast in the cafeteria. For lunch and dinner, she had to use the student window.
However, her salary and benefits were the same as those of regular teachers.
"I've already eaten."
"I've also eaten."
"…"
Qin Siyang had originally wanted to bring them breakfast and chat for a while, but he hadn't expected both of them to have already eaten.
"Fine, then I'll eat by myself. You two can take the extra portions with you. Teacher Zhu, take a break. I'll clean up after I finish eating. At your age, there's no need to be this diligent."
Hearing Qin Siyang's familiar way of speaking, Teacher Zhu felt that even after awakening his Sequence Ability, Qin Siyang hadn't changed much.
She was a bit puzzled, "Student Qin, why do I feel like you're just the same as before?"
"I've always been the same as before."
"Then… why did you beat up Liu Qiangzhong at the school gate?"
"Oh, I never liked him in the first place. Plus, we had some friction before, so when I saw him today, I just gave him a hit."
"This… You're a good student—how could you hit a teacher?"
Before Qin Siyang could respond, Wen Shu put down her exercise book and said slowly, "I actually think that hitting Liu Qiangzhong was more in line with what a good student should do."
