Lords of the Old Ones? I thought it was a speed bump.

Chapter 25 Your Name

Actually, when Teacher Duan Hong asked him what to do just now...

Lin Jue felt very uncertain and couldn't give a useful answer for the time being.

Fortunately, this tall and thin classmate stepped forward and gave him a hint with just one sentence.

"What else can we do? Lin Jue is so strong, he can move this mountain and get us out of here."

Upon hearing Gao Zhigui's words, Lin Jue felt a flash of inspiration.

There was a sudden, familiar feeling of a door being flung open, followed by the realization that "the murderer was him."

Yes, if you think about it carefully, this is a winding mountain road, and there are only mountains and no other roads here.

If the highway is stuck in a vicious cycle of going uphill, then the only way out must be up the mountain.

Having confirmed this, Lin Jue glanced at Gao Zhigui, who was standing with his arms crossed, coldly staring at him, and couldn't help but nod in agreement.

And if he remembered correctly, it seemed that this same male classmate had reminded him to stop the car earlier.

The fact that he was able to provide timely advice twice in a row shows that he is quick-witted, has a broad perspective, and is a valuable asset.

By the way, what was this guy's name again? I think his surname was Gao... Gao Guizhi?

By the way, Takashi Takayuki, that should be right. I should listen to his opinions more often in the future.

Just as Lin Jue was thinking of seeking more opinions from this clever classmate.

But then Jiang Fan suddenly stepped forward, pointed at Gao Zhigui, and shouted:

"You should be more considerate! You've been spouting sarcastic remarks ever since you got on the bus. Don't think others don't know what you're thinking! You're just envious and jealous of Lin Jue, and you can't stand seeing him in the limelight!"

Although Lin Jue was completely oblivious to the malicious slander behind his back.

But how could Jiang Fan not know what Gao Zhigui had done behind the scenes?

However, Gao Zhigui's father owned a company called Hero Media. Although the company was not large, it was enough for him to have absolute power within Baigang High School.

Considering various practical factors, Jiang Fan refrained from confronting the wealthy young master.

Who knew things would come to this point, with no one even knowing if they could get out alive, and he's still here mocking Lin Jue.

Jiang Fan was so angry that his scalp tingled, and he rushed out to hurl insults at him.

As Jiang Fan took the lead in criticizing Gao Zhigui, the gazes of the crowd immediately turned to dissatisfaction, and various discussions began to rise and fall.

"Yes, Gao, we're still in danger. Wouldn't starting infighting now just hold everyone back?"

"I think he's just jealous of Lin Jue. He owns Hero Company but doesn't have any awakened abilities. He's probably furious when he sees Lin Jue awaken his abilities."

"It's not just jealousy. Didn't you see the expression on the class monitor's face when he was bandaging Lin Jue's wound? He looked like he'd eaten shit."

......

During his school years, Gao Zhigui was a well-known rich second-generation, and teachers and classmates alike had to give him some respect.

But when it comes to a life-or-death situation, anyone who isn't out of their mind can tell who's more important, a rich kid or a superhuman.

Seeing that he had instantly become the target of everyone's criticism, Gao Zhigui's face turned pale and he unconsciously took a few steps back.

Although he usually acts like a bully at school, he's really just a high school student.

Faced with such widespread condemnation, he was filled with anger, frustration, and fear. His usual eloquence seemed to have vanished into thin air, and he couldn't utter a single word.

But just as Gao Zhigui was being humiliated by Jiang Fan and the other classmates and was about to run away.

Lin Jue slowly walked up to him and gestured for everyone to be quiet.

Seeing Lin Jue walk over in person, Jiang Fan thought that the person in question was preparing to take revenge personally.

So he mouthed to Gao Zhigui, "You're dead."

He then stood behind Lin Jue with a cold smile, ready to watch how Lin Jue would tear his love rival apart.

Gao Zhigui also felt that he had angered Lin Jue this time and was definitely doomed.

But he also had the dignity and ambition of a young man, and was even more unwilling to lose face in front of Bai Tingting.

Damn it, so be it! Don't be a coward and beg for help! Anyway, I'll still be a hero in eighteen years!

So Gao Zhigui gritted his teeth, twisted his neck, and stood firmly in front of Lin Jue, displaying a tough attitude of "do whatever you want with me."

But the next moment, Lin Jue simply patted his shoulder and said calmly:

"I think what Takashi said makes a lot of sense. We should start looking for an exit from the top of the mountain. What do you all think?"

......What?

Everyone around was stunned by these words.

What's going on? Why have we suddenly reverted to finding a way out?

Thinking of this, some of the smarter students shook their heads vigorously.

Wait, finding an exit is the real priority now; we've just been misled by Gao Zhigui.

After realizing this, they looked at Lin Jue with a mixture of surprise and admiration.

After all, under these circumstances, only Lin Jue was still thinking about how to lead everyone to escape from the "paradoxical plane".

Moreover, judging from his tone just now, he seemed completely unconcerned about Gao Zhigui's repeated sarcasm and sarcastic remarks. What a magnanimous heart he has!

No... Not only did Lin Jue not care about the other party's sarcasm, he also seemed unable to remember the other party's name.

When they heard Lin Jue pronounce Gao Zhigui's name backwards, several classmates couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Indeed, the current situation is rather ridiculous.

They had been in the same class for three years, and Gao Zhigui had unilaterally regarded Lin Jue as his mortal enemy.

In the end, Lin Jue not only remained unmoved by his various provocations, but he couldn't even remember the man's name.

What? You're my mortal enemy? You have a grudge against me?

Excuse me, who are you? I really can't remember your name.

Of all the people, Gao Zhigui was naturally the one who felt the most deeply from those words.

Taka... Takashi? He called me Takashi? This guy can't even remember my name?

Looking into those calm, still eyes, Gao Zhigui slumped to the ground in a daze, as if all his strength had been drained away.

He would rather Lin Jue scold him, beat him, or trample him like mud in front of the whole class.

Anyway, you're an extraordinary being, you're the best, you can do whatever you want, I accept that, okay?

But Lin Jue did nothing; he even patted him on the shoulder and accepted his opinion instead.

Most importantly, judging from the fact that this guy pronounces his name backwards...

Lin Jue seemed to completely disregard the arrogant rich second-generation in front of him.

I've been at odds with him for a whole year, and it turns out he's never even given me a second glance.

Just as Gao Zhigui sat on the ground in a daze, seemingly finally realizing that he was just a clown.

Seeing that he suddenly sat down with a thud and his expression turned very strange, Lin Jue quickly squatted down and asked with concern:

"Takashi, if you're injured anywhere, here's a first-aid kit. How about I have the class monitor treat you?"

He asked the squad leader to treat my wound?

Looking into Lin Jue's pure eyes, which held absolutely no hint of mockery.

Gao Zhigui sighed deeply and said in a complicated tone:

"It's okay, I'm fine... really fine, I've never been this fine before."

Perhaps provoked by Lin Jue, he simply changed his name as well.

From this moment on, there is no longer Gao Zhigui in the world; what remains is the reformed Gao Guizhi.

After standing up, he looked around, bowed to the students and teachers, and then began to speak:

"I'm so sorry, I was just throwing a tantrum and caused you all trouble."

This was the first time in over three years of attending school together that they had seen Takashi apologize.

Even more astonishingly, after apologizing, he tidied his messy hair and said with a piercing gaze:

"Because of my father, I was fortunate enough to hear experts explain some cases about how to leave the 'paradoxical dimension,' which I believe will be of great help to my next actions."
