52: Chapter 51 Preparation for the exam

52 -51 Preparation for the exam

Yang Yi had nothing to consider, and he also believed he understood Kate’s feelings.

A girl, suddenly losing all her relatives, and not just any relatives but the closest ones, then being hunted down—in such times, she would certainly feel very vulnerable and in need of a sense of security.

When there’s only one person left to rely on, of course she wouldn’t want to lose that support.

Yang Yi also realized that if he wanted to make a move at this moment, he probably only needed to say one sentence to take care of Kate.

But why would he do that?

Firstly, Yang Yi didn’t have any special feelings for Kate, which is to say he didn’t like Kate.

Of course, this dislike was not out of aversion; Yang Yi merely refused to let Kate become his girlfriend.

Everyone likes young and beautiful girls.

If he were in a different identity, in a different setting, Yang Yi might seize the opportunity to win over a beauty, but there was a problem—just the thought of Kate beating him down to the ground with a few punches and kicks dispelled any thoughts of further developments with her.

The psychological shadow was too great.

Unless Yang Yi could defeat Kate with his own strength, he would never be able to shake off this psychological shadow in his lifetime.

Besides, now was not the time to give up the opportunity to study in order to take care of a woman, nor was it the time to be romantic.

Therefore, looking at Kate’s pleading eyes, a well-aware Yang Yi had no choice but to feign ignorance.

“It’s alright.

The captain isn’t the kind of person who would set me up.

If he wanted to harm me, why go through all the trouble?

Alright, Kate, it’s time for you to sleep.

I’m so sleepy, I’m going to bed first…”

Although he indeed felt somewhat reluctant, he had no choice.

Thus, whether it was playing dumb or being insensitive, Yang Yi really lay down and fell asleep—and he slept very soundly too.

The next morning, as usual, he helped Kate go to the bathroom and with her washing up, then Yang Yi hurried downstairs to find Danny.

It was the same table, but the breakfast had changed to simple bacon and bread, along with milk.

“It’s a bit out of place to eat these in a Chinese restaurant, isn’t it?”

Joking with Danny, Yang Yi sat at the table, smiling, “Do you have a portion for me?”

Danny smiled, “There’s a portion for you.

So, have you made up your mind?”

“No need to think, I’m in!”

Danny nodded, then lifted his head to speak to Yang Yi, “If you’ve made up your mind, then prepare these next two days, comfort your girlfriend well, because she’s going to have to endure being alone here for a while.”

“She’s not my girlfriend!”

Danny shook his head, smiling, “Really not?”

“Really not!”

Danny shrugged, “Then she will be in the future.

She can’t leave you now.”

Yang Yi said irritably, “Don’t talk nonsense.

I haven’t thought about finding a girlfriend yet, and I prefer gentle women, not violent ones.”

“Whatever, that’s your business.

Now you can start preparing.

We’ll set off as soon as possible.

But I need to make contact with the United States first, so the departure time isn’t set.

Get your passport and visa ready, prepare to leave at any time.”

Yang Yi nodded, then asked curiously, “Now that Kate isn’t here, can you tell me what university it actually is?”

Danny looked at Yang Yi, pondered for a moment, but still shook his head, “I can tell you the risks, but I won’t tell you which university it is.”

“Why not?”

“No reason.

I just don’t want to.

And I worry that after telling you, you might lose the courage to pursue advanced studies.

So, let me ask you once more, are you really willing to risk getting hurt or even likely losing your life, having your freedom restricted, living with daily hellish experiences, to learn how to become a ‘spy’?”

Yang Yi frowned, “What kind of school is so dangerous?

Okay, just one question then, can I really learn something?”

Danny nodded seriously, “Just getting into the university won’t do, but if you find the right teacher, I guarantee you’ll come out a master!”

“Will I definitely have a teacher?”

“Definitely, but whether he’s willing to teach you…

well, given my face, he should agree since he owes me a favor.”

Yang Yi bit fiercely into his bread and said in a deep voice, “Then I’ll go!

Even if I die in there, I’ll just have to chalk it up to bad luck!”

Danny chuckled and said, “It’s good that you have this determination.”

“Now can you tell me where to go?”

“I can’t.

I told you I didn’t want to reveal it now.

Since you know the risks you’ll be facing, why must you know where exactly it is?”

Yang Yi said helplessly, “Okay, okay, I won’t ask anymore.”

Danny picked up his milk and smiled, “Eat breakfast.

Ah Jiang will come over, and in the next few days, he will teach you some things that will help you get by better in college.

Oh, learn well, you’ll definitely need it.”

Just as Yang Yi was about to finish his breakfast, Wang Wenjiang arrived.

Unlike Ye Ming, he didn’t come to eat; instead, as soon as he entered, he said, “Are you done eating?

If you’re finished, follow me.”

Yang Yi going out alone was basically a suicide mission, so the Dark Night Knight absolutely needed protection, and today, it was evidently Wang Wenjiang’s turn to protect and instruct him.

Yang Yi immediately stood up and said, “I’m done eating, let’s go.”

Danny watched the two about to leave and smiled, “Ah Jiang is one of the best fighters of the Dark Night Knight.

Danny, learn well, you’ll need it for the entrance exam.”

Yang Yi spread his hands and laughed, “There’s an entrance exam too?

Then you can rest assured, I’ve never screwed up an exam in my life, it’s a failure if I don’t come first!”

Danny laughed, and Wang Wenjiang said disdainfully, “Fine, we’ll see if you can still laugh when the time comes.

Let’s go!”

This time, they didn’t need to run; Yang Yi got into Wang Wenjiang’s car, and they went directly to the gym that Wang Wenjiang frequented.

This time, no one forced Yang Yi to work on his fitness; instead, Wang Wenjiang started by teaching him moves that ostensibly shouldn’t be taught, particularly lethal techniques he needed to remember well.

“You have limited strength, so you can’t think about overcoming your opponent face-to-face in a fight.

Remember, no matter what happens, no matter the consequences, make sure you’re not the one being taken down.

Many times, once you fall, you may never have the chance to get up again!”

Looking at the very serious Wang Wenjiang, Yang Yi nodded and said, “I’ll remember that!”

Wang Wenjiang posed and instructed, “What if someone tries to kill you?

First, attack their weakest spots—eyes, throat, groin—these are the first options.

Pick one that you can attack based on the situation, be steady!

Accurate!

Ruthless!

Get him!”

After saying that, Wang Wenjiang’s two fingers whooshed towards Yang Yi’s face; then he said in a deep voice, “Poke the eyes!”

Pulling one hand downward, he gripped Yang Yi’s throat with three fingers; Wang Wenjiang said fiercely, “Grabbing the throat controls him completely.

If you can’t grab his throat, then hit it with a punch directly.

Even if you don’t have much strength in your hands, it’ll still incapacitate him.”

A swift kick came from his foot; Wang Wenjiang said fiercely, “When you’re striking with your hands, never forget your feet!

Kick him!

Hold onto a belief: it’s either him or you.

Got it?”

Yang Yi said immediately, “Got it!”

Wang Wenjiang nodded and continued, “You have a good memory, and your muscle memory is also very good.

I don’t expect you to choose the most appropriate response for each situation—that requires a lot of practice.

For now, I want you to remember how to respond in every situation.

Now, come behind me and hug me.”

Wang Wenjiang turned around, and Yang Yi, feeling somewhat awkward, still lightly embraced Wang Wenjiang and asked, “Like this?”

“Harder, use all your strength, as if you’re trying to strangle me to death.”

Yang Yi exerted all his strength, and Wang Wenjiang said in a low voice, “Watch closely, if someone has got you in a hold, do this.”

Wang Wenjiang slammed his head back hard.

Yang Yi’s head was turned to the side, so his face took a heavy blow, while Wang Wenjiang quickly ducked forward and hooked his right foot back, kicking Yang Yi’s knee.

Breaking free with his hands, Wang Wenjiang pretended he hadn’t managed to release Yang Yi’s arms; however, as his arms retracted, he suddenly grabbed backward.

Yang Yi’s eyes bulged, and after crying out in agony, he immediately collapsed to the ground.

Looking at Yang Yi lying on the ground, Wang Wenjiang said without expression, “You have half an hour, then we’ll continue practicing.

Remember, the place you’re going is very dangerous.

If you don’t want to be the one who falls, then you’d better remember every word I say!”
