Chapter 104: A Little Full (4K 2-in-1)(2/2)
Fan Ning did not leave the Special Inspection Department branch until after three o'clock in the afternoon, and then boarded the train bound for Fort Santalan which departed after four o'clock. It was close to midnight when he returned to the imperial capital.
This place, the heart of the empire's transportation hub, was still crowded, but as soon as Fan Ning got on the taxi leaving the train station, the popularity quickly dropped to almost zero.
On the streets on a dark summer night, there were only teams of police security officers patrolling.
Fanning detoured and changed trains in several places, and finally took off his disguise in a hidden place and officially set off for Noblewin Parish in the south.
The headquarters of the Guidance School is built adjacent to the Metropolitan University of Santaram.
Compared with traditional aristocratic public schools, which are usually good at theology, arts and humanities, city universities, which have emerged with the growth of the middle class in the empire in the past half century, are generally stronger in majors such as science and technology, economics and finance, or business administration.
Santa Ramburg City University is one of the best among them. Their jurisdiction, along with non-aristocratic schools such as elementary public schools, night schools for workers' skills, free schools for the poor, and women's home schools, all belong to the guiding school.
The carriage passed by the long and dark buildings in the Financial Center of the Diocese of Norberwein, and finally stopped at the square outside the gate of the Santa Ramburg City University.
In the corner of the marble school gate with a new-era color scheme, Sheeran, who had heard the commotion, poked her head out of the duty room. When she saw Fan Ning's figure, she trotted over with her white skirt in hand.
"What are you doing?" Fan Ning watched in surprise as the girl came up to him and sniffed twice.
"You smoke." Sheeran wrinkled her nose.
"I don't want to...has the stuff arrived? If it arrives, just take it first. It's so late, why don't you rest first."
"Can I sleep?" Xilan rolled his eyes at him, "I found it in the artificial lake behind the school at about two o'clock in the afternoon, but... it was a bit strange, so I didn't dare to open it, thinking of waiting.
You may have a better idea of what happened when you come back..."
"A bit strange?" Fan Ning frowned.
So he followed Sheeran to school with doubts.
The night breeze was cool and pleasant. After walking on the wide square avenue in front of the main building for a few minutes, Sheeran took Fan Ning and turned into a nearby fork in the road. They took a shortcut through the side door and entered the office area of the headquarters of the Guidance School.
"This tallest seven-storey building is the old library of the City University of St. Taranburg. It now has only one and two floors open to teachers and students on weekdays. It is listed as the 'Joint Committee of the City College of Tiolion'
'."
"The actual offices of the school are on the third to seventh floors, as well as the first, second and third underground floors accessible by mechanical lifts... Of course, it is next to public facilities such as the travel hotel, academic club, water concert hall and faculty restaurant.
It’s also for our use, we’ll stay in the hotel here tonight.”
Sheeran introduced the layout of the neighborhood to Fan Ning, and she was obviously very familiar with it throughout the day.
Although the size of the university's travel hotel is not as good as the Boethius Hotel, Fanning thinks it is on the same level as Gogol's Great Hotel.
"Click." Xilan took out the guest room key, opened the door and motioned for him to come in directly.
"You'll know by yourself... Although the situation is a bit strange, I haven't found anything unusual after observing it for a while. To be on the safe side, I didn't ask Sir Viadrin to help deal with it."
Fan Ning saw the tightly tied black cowhide bag placed in the corner of the bathroom, and instinctively had a bad premonition in his heart.
And when he opened the cowhide bag and took out the drift bottle, he was completely dumbfounded.
