274 Dissipation
The security officers of the Jiangzhou City Mutant Academy looked at the citizens gathered at the door and could not help but break out in cold sweat.
“This… What should we do?”
“What else can we do? Inform Teacher Hu!”
“B-but Teacher Hu brought the students out to provide support. He hasn’t returned yet!”
Seeing that the situation was getting more and more out of control, the two security officers hurriedly closed the academy’s door.
Then, he began to call the teachers in the academy.
At the same time, Hu Yan, who was still in the old district, could not help but be very surprised when he received a call from the academy.
“What did you say? Many residents are blocking the door outside the academy?”
“Yes, Teacher Hu, many people!”
“How many exactly?”
“There… there must be hundreds of them!”
Hu Yan looked at the surrounding old city residents who had already begun to appear on the streets and felt that something was wrong.
“Wait a moment. I’ll be back in a while.”
After hanging up, Hu Yan looked at the surrounding people and residents who had begun to look for each other and casually found a crowded place to walk over.
“Hello, I want to ask, have any of you organized the residents to go to the academy?”
The dozen or so people who were stopped by Hu Yan were slightly stunned before looking at Hu Yan warily.
The residents of the old district were usually more vigilant against some “foreigners”.
Otherwise, the owner of the clothing shop would not have remembered Li Weixin and the others.
Fortunately, someone knew Hu Yan.
Knowing that he was the teacher-in-charge who had brought the students of the academy over to support, he immediately explained,
“This is the teacher of the academy. The pigs and birds running on the streets were brought by this teacher.”
Hearing that person’s explanation, everyone, who had been filled with hostility just now, looked at Hu Yan with only gratitude.
“Thank you!”
“He’s really my savior!”
“Teacher Hu, although I don’t know what you’re asking, the residents of our area… usually won’t go to other places in the city.”
The person who took the initiative to explain to Hu Yan just now also nodded.
“Yes, and we haven’t heard of anyone organizing people to go to the academy.”
“At this moment, everyone is counting their losses or looking for someone ~”
Hearing the words of the people in front of him, Hu Yan nodded and thanked them before returning to the academy’s bus.
Then, he called a few students to ask in other streets.
The result was still similar to what he had just learned.
Other than those who had fled, the residents who stayed here did not say where anyone had organized a group of people to go elsewhere.
Now, Hu Yan was basically certain that the hundreds of people at the entrance of the academy could not be from the old city.
After all, the population of the entire old district was only more than 20,000. Those who escaped were all at the edge of the old district and were basically not affected.
There was no reason for them to go to the academy to cause trouble.
As for the families of the victims…
To be honest, it was impossible for there to be so many people.
Thinking of this, Hu Yan immediately began to inform those students to prepare to bring their beasts back to the academy.
At the same time, on the streets of the old district, some students of the academy were wandering around.
Every time they arrived, the students of these academies would receive the gratitude of these residents.
Just like now.
Qian Fu and Guo Yuankai were treating a few slightly injured residents with Xu Lan.
These residents looked at the “green carp” blowing bubbles in the fish tank and the majestic Thunder Falcon parked on Guo Yuankai’s shoulder, their eyes filled with surprise.
“Young man, what… What fish is this?”
A white-haired uncle pointed at the green carp and asked Qian Fu curiously.
Qian Fu explained with a smile,
“Uncle, this is a green carp.”
“Where can I buy it? Is it expensive?”
“It’s not expensive. It’s sold in the academy. It costs 1,000 credits each.”
“Does your academy still sell fish?”
A slightly younger middle-aged man at the side looked at Qian Fu in surprise.
“It’s not sold by our academy. It’s the Beast Taming Dojo. These fish, this golden bird, and the pigs you saw on the street previously are all beasts.”
“Beast? Why do I feel like I’ve heard of it somewhere before?”
“I think the old masters of the government said before?”
“I remember now!”
The uncle who first asked Qian Fu patted his thigh excitedly and then winced in pain.
“Hiss ~”
“It’s, it’s Old Huang from the neighboring street. Huang Hui, didn’t he raise a big tiger? I heard from him that it’s a beast.”
Hearing this uncle’s words, the neighbors immediately thought of something and spoke at once.
“At that time, we were still laughing at that guy. I didn’t expect… that dog Huang to hit the jackpot!”
“That’s right. If even fish and pigs are so powerful, won’t the tiger be even more powerful?”
“I saw someone say in the group chat just now that Old Huang relied on his tiger to save 20 to 30 neighbors.”
“Hiss, this old thing really is daring!”
“Hmph, what does it have to do with that old thing? Isn’t it because his tiger is strong?”
This person clearly did not get along with Old Huang.
However, there was nothing wrong with what he said.
“However, I don’t remember Old Huang being a mutant. Why…”
Someone had touched on the crux of the problem.
Qian Fu immediately explained with a smile like a qualified salesman,
“Ordinary people can have beasts without any special abilities.”
“P-Ordinary people can do it too?”
“Yes.”
After discussing for a while, the residents came to a unanimous conclusion—this beast was really good!
