Chapter 495 - ‘Accident’

Shou Ji got no time to cry when he returned to their residence… well, he doesn\'t cry. It\'s just an exaggeration. Tomorrow will be a big day for the four of them since he, Yi Bing, Huo Ling and Shi Jiu will be competing in the Annual Challenge to enter the Chel Military Academy.

Fortunately, Yi Bing, Huo Ling and Shi Jiu noticed his dark face when he returned and didn\'t provoke him. Then, finally, the big day came.

Chel Military Academy Annual Challenge, elimination round.

"The Daune family\'s heir is here!" the crowd exclaimed when they saw the important figures sat on the VIP seats.

"The Daune Technology is the best technology company! Five years ago, they swept the whole market and steadily rose to the top!" someone said.

"That\'s right! Their goal is to bring dawn for the mechas and weapons that the military will use…" they said and resumed talking.

Meanwhile, the young woman that Shou Ji met yesterday is sitting beside a tall and handsome man who looked like a magazine model on his spotless white suit.

After greeting with the head and the other figures of the Chel Military Academy, the handsome man, Wallace Daune, turned to his younger sister. "What was the name of the man you spoke with yesterday?" he asked her.

"Shawn James." Emily answered. "Brother. You really don\'t know him?" she asked as she curiously looked at him. Although she has a graceful figure, but her face has a childish expression right now. "He knows your previous names, \'Wallace Moone\' and even \'Wei Shi\'." She told him.

"No." Wallace Daune answered before he made a pause. "… it isn\'t someone from the military?" he asked.

She shook her head. "No." she answered. "He looked like an ordinary person… huh?!" she suddenly exclaimed when her gaze went to the center of the arena where the participants for this year\'s Annual Challenge are standing.

"What is it?" Wallace Daune asked and followed her gaze to the center of the arena. Today, their company\'s new products launched and he had the Chel Military Academy use it, and also to promote it, through their Annual Challenge – a competition.

"Brother, look!" Emily called as she pointed somewhere in the central arena. "That\'s him! Shawn James!" she said. "He\'s the fourth from the left side in front!" she told him.

Wallace Daune searched the person she is pointing at. Because he was busy yesterday, he didn\'t take seriously this \'Shawn James\' since his younger sister said that it wasn\'t someone from the military. Only Yu Yan knows his name \'Wei Shi\', but even Yu Yan can\'t recognize him now after half of his face was burned in that \'accident\' seven years ago.

After the general died when he was swallowed by the black hole, not leaving even a bone or a piece of his cloth, Yu Yan survived while he was half-dead. Yu Yan was also heavily injured, and both of them remained in the hospital for half a year. Then, suddenly, he was found by his real family and took him away, erasing all of his former information and pulled some strings, indicating that \'Wallace Moone\' died and his body was left in the space. Yu Yan was also muddle-headed when he woke up and he believed that he really was left in the space. Only the hospital where they were sent knows that he was still alive.

Fortunately, Yu Yan believed that he is dead, since he knows that it was Yu Yan\'s doing the \'accident\' that happened, killing the general. If his real family didn\'t find him and made him a new person, he feared that Yu Yan would either kill him, or manipulate him. He doesn\'t care whether Yu Yan knows or not that he knows he plotted against the general, leading to his death, and that he is relieved to hear that he is now dead.

All Wallace Daune feels that now, he wanted to stay away from Yu Yan and secretly investigate him and expose his crime of plotting against the general, killing him.

"Brother? Brother!" Emily called, her voice waking him up from his daze. "Geez! What\'s wrong with you? Have you been bewitched by that Shawn James\' beauty?" she pouted.

"\'beauty\'?" Wallace Daune muttered and turned, only to see on the screen Shawn James\' face as well as his data displayed. "… he is really good-looking." He can\'t help but say when he saw his fair face, curled lips and beautiful eyes on the screen.

"AH! You really are bewitched?!" Emily exclaimed as she hit his arm. "Well, he is really good-looking, as well as his friends." She said as she looked at the three other \'people\' standing beside Shou Ji.

"\'friends\'?" Wallace Daune muttered and followed her gaze.

"Yes. I heard from some people that he has three friends who are also strong like him, and two of them are stronger than him." She said.

Wallace Daune looked at Shou Ji\'s data displayed before the screen changed. "Well, he is really strong." He agreed. "It would be a pity if no instructor would take him and his friends are their apprentices… well, I expect for them to make a move in the second stage." He said. "This battle royale isn\'t a suspense." He added.

Meanwhile, the crowd exclaimed and roared in shock when they saw the four \'people\'s data on the screen. Even the head and the instructors of the Chel Military Academy were surprised, as well as some military figures who are also guests in the Annual Challenge, like Gu Xingfeng for instance, who came with Hao Baiyun.

"He\'s the one who saved you yesterday, together with his three friends." Gu Xingfeng told Hao Baiyun.

Hao Baiyun looked at the screen. "I\'ll invite them for dinner later." He spoke.

"That\'s not why I told you about them." Gu Xingfeng spoke.

"I just want to sincerely express my thanks, nothing else." Hao Baiyun said, knowing what he wanted to say.

Gu Xingfeng felt helpless. "Well, it shouldn\'t be a problem after they display their strength today." He spoke.

"Now, let\'s welcome the CEO of the Daune Technology, Sir Wallace Daune, to introduce this year\'s products of their company that will be used for this year\'s Annual Challenge." The host spoke.

Yi Bing, who were standing with Huo Ling, Shou Ji and Shi Jiu, spoke. "\'Daune Technology\'?" he muttered after they heard what the host said.

"Hm? Right… I seemed to have read that the weapons that they manufactured will be the ones that we, the participants, will use." Shou Ji told them. In short, the Daune Technology is their sponsor.

"Oh. So this can also be a publicity for them." Huo Ling spoke.

Shou Ji nodded.

"Huh? \'Wallace\'?" Shi Jiu muttered. "Chief, he has the same name as the \'Wei Shi\' you tried to look for yesterday." He told Shou Ji, only to freeze when he saw Shou Ji\'s murderous glare. "Oh… sorry." He said and apologetically smiled before looking away.

Shou Ji knows he can\'t make a move on the stage so he suppressed his anger due to being deceived by Wei Shi.

Meanwhile, everyone watched as a tall and handsome man stepped on the podium and gave his speech. The moment he uttered the first words, Shou Ji\'s eyes widened and his pupils shrank as his whole being froze.

"What the…" he muttered as he sharply turned to look at the person speaking. Wei Shi…? He thought as he stared at him, wide-eyed. Although the man\'s voice changed and his manner of speaking changed, but Shou Ji can\'t shake this familiar feeling. His voice sounds different, but why do I feel that he is Wei Shi? Is it because I have been thinking of Wei Shi lately and that this man has the same name as him? He thought as he stared at Wallace Daune. That must be is… he just bears the same name as Wei Shi that\'s why I feel that it was him. He thought as he lowered his head and closed his eyes before he took a deep breath.

But, he didn\'t know that as soon as he removed his gaze and lowered his head, Wallace Daune who has just turned and stepped down the podium clenched his fists. This feeling… I can\'t mistake this feeling! He thought as he lowered his head and walked back to his seat. General… the general is here! He thought as he sharply turned to scan the whole arena to find where that feeling is coming from.

Erich Reane… Wei Qi. He\'s here! He is definitely here! He thought as his gaze wildly looked around as soon as he seated. The general… he didn\'t die? He thought and looked at his hands shaking on his lap. General… did you come back? He thought as his eyes reddened. He closed his eyes and lowered his head to hide his shaken expression. Thank god you came back… I will definitely give you the justice you deserve! I will definitely expose Yu Yan\'s crimes!

Wait for me, general! I will find you!
