Li Wei placed his other foot on Orimura Natsu's wrist joint and said coldly, "Originally, I didn't want to lay a hand on you. After all, you're Orimura Chifuyu's younger brother, and I would have exercised considerable restraint for her sake. However, you shouldn't have insulted my family, so I've changed my mind. You can forget about having a good time at the academy from now on. I will use every means to torment you. Although I won't kill you, you will suffer every day."

Li Wei usually has a good temper, but everyone has their weaknesses, and Li Wei is no exception. His sore spot is his partner and family. He doesn't care if others joke about him, but if the joke involves his family and partner, he won't give them a good look. If they directly insult him, he will make them regret being born.

Orimura Natsumi kept begging for mercy. Although the sounds were strange, he felt that Levi, as a magician, might have the ability to understand words spoken in such a state.

However, out of the corner of her eye, Orimura Natsumi saw Li Wei's cold and indifferent expression. Li Wei looked at her as if she were a piece of trash, which stung her heart and filled her with immense fear. Although Li Wei had said he wouldn't let her die, the thought of being worse than dead was far more terrifying than death itself.

Li Wei exerted force with his other foot, and a crisp cracking sound came from Orimura Natsumi's wrist. Orimura Natsumi began to struggle violently. Li Wei moved his foot up a little and stepped down again.

Through his mind-reading ability, Li Wei was able to sense Orimura Natsumi's fear and pain, as well as her hatred for him. Li Wei wasn't surprised; it would be strange if she didn't hate him after being tormented like that. His mind-reading ability prevented him from being deceived by others, and he could clearly perceive whether someone liked or disliked him.

As Li Wei crushed the bones on Zhiban Xia's body, he spoke slowly and deliberately, as if talking to himself: "Originally, I was just going to give you a simple beating, but because of your rudeness, your punishment must be more severe."

The intense pain left Orimura Natsumi without the strength to struggle. She was like a rotten piece of meat, letting Li Wei beat her. Only the occasional twitching proved that she was still alive.

Feeling bored, Li Wei dismantled every bone in the other's body and then used his magic to repair all the damage in just a few seconds.

Feeling her body return to normal, Orimura slowly sat up. Looking at Li Wei standing not far away with his arms crossed, the fear in her heart prevented her from saying a word. She scrambled away from the playground.

Watching Orimura Natsu's disheveled retreating figure, Li Wei frowned. The reason he felt displeased was simple: the severe punishment he had just received hadn't managed to squeeze any points out of Orimura Natsu, which was simply unbelievable.

Although he could sense the intense hatred Orimura harbored for him, and that Orimura would undoubtedly retaliate if given the chance, she remained resolute despite the torment she had just endured. She refused to yield, instead accumulating her hatred deep within, waiting for the opportune moment to exact her revenge.

Li Wei has experienced several worlds and seen a lot of anime characters, but to be honest, someone as persistent as Orimura Natsumi is truly rare.

Whether it was Komuro Takashi, Aki Tomoya, or the later Miyuki, they all had serious personality flaws, so he could target them specifically to gain points.

However, Li Wei's previously tried-and-true methods failed him against Orimura Natsume, forcing him to resort to a bigger, more forceful approach to completely break through Orimura Natsume's defenses.

"What a pity. Your position determines your perspective. We are absolutely opposed, and there is no room for negotiation." Li Wei said with a sigh as he watched Orimura Natsu's retreating figure.

After all, what he's doing now is seizing the original protagonist's "opportunity" and using all sorts of means to gain his own cultivation. For his own benefit, he's willing to be a villain.

Li Wei went to the cafeteria, had dinner, and then returned to his dormitory. He then received an ECHO message from Huang Lingyin, who was the intelligence agent arranged by the domestic authorities to contact Li Wei and was also his deputy assigned by his superiors.

Through his researcher clone, Li Wei discovered information about Huang Lingyin. Huang Lingyin's family were all intelligence agents in the country, and in the original story, they were close to Zhiban Xia. Besides the fact that they were childhood friends, there was also an element of intelligence gathering involved.

The reason why the Huang Lingyin family and the Orimura family became friends was because of Orimura Chifuyu. It can be said that some things in the original story were actually planned behind the scenes, but Orimura Natsu, who was involved, was very oblivious and did not notice these abnormalities.

Just as Li Wei was alone in his dormitory, there was a sudden knock on the wooden door. Li Wei, who had a super strong sense of perception, was not surprised, because the person outside the door was Huang Lingyin, who was connected with him.

Li Wei opened the wooden door, and a chestnut-brown girl with pigtails stood outside.

The girl has delicate features and an indescribable childlike innocence. She is petite, and her front armor plate is slightly thin, but her overall curves are still very good. She is a girl with a strong Lolita feel.

Huang Lingyin unfolded the paper in her hand.

(ECHO has a listening function, and direct conversation would leak information, so communication can only be done via text.)

Li Wei nodded and gestured in sign language to signal the other person to come in.

Huang Lingyin also knew sign language. She nodded, said nothing, and went directly into the room.

Chapter 1. Intelligence Meeting

After entering the room, Huang Lingyin closed the door behind her and then walked to the window, drawing all the curtains. As an intelligence agent, she had the most basic level of vigilance.

Huang Lingyin went to the desk, took a pen from the pen holder, and began to write quickly on the paper.

(I'm not very proficient in sign language, so there might be some issues with accuracy if I use it to communicate. I prefer to communicate in writing.)

Li Wei nodded, woke up his laptop from sleep mode, opened a document, and began typing rapidly on the keyboard.

(I understand, but your handwriting is a bit slow. I imagine your typing speed is quite good, right?)

Huang Lingyin nodded and began typing on the keyboard. Although her typing speed couldn't keep up with Li Wei's, it was still much faster than the average person.

(My typing speed is alright, Comrade Li Wei. This is Huang Lingyin, your contact person. You can entrust me with the task of transmitting intelligence. At the same time, I am also one of the people with knowledge of core intelligence. I was recommended by Comrade Researcher.)

(I believe you. He has already contacted me. It's not convenient for the academy to communicate with the outside world, so I'll have to rely on you for the intelligence transmission from now on.)

When Li Wei learned Huang Lingyin's true identity, he was actually quite surprised, because as a woman and an IS armored pilot, Huang Lingyin was undoubtedly a beneficiary of the system. However, Huang Lingyin always maintained her loyalty to her country and did not put her personal interests above the national interest just because she was an IS armored pilot.

It is precisely because of this that Li Wei has a great fondness for Huang Lingyin, because this girl does not forget her roots. In the current world, it is rare and precious for a woman to have such thoughts.

The two began typing rapidly on the keyboard, exchanging words back and forth. To avoid leaving any traces, the document would be deleted after the exchange was completed. Clearing the input before saving the document would leave no trace, which was even more convenient than using paper. After all, destroying paper required either special chemicals or burning, but either method would leave some smell, and as an intelligence agent, Huang Lingyin could not tolerate such a flaw.

The two didn't talk for very long, since they weren't in the same class and had never interacted before. Their sudden meeting could easily arouse suspicion.

Of course, Huang Lingyin was unaware that Li Wei had turned the entire academy into his "paradise," and that the managers of key departments were all his people, completely belonging to him both physically and mentally. Even if the two of them openly exchanged information, there wouldn't be any problems.

However, since he was playing the role of an intelligence agent, he had to act like one, being as secretive as possible so that Huang Lingyin wouldn't suspect him.

(I'll find an opportunity to come see you tomorrow, Li Wei. What do you think is the best way to make our first meeting so that the academy's vigilance is minimized?)

(What if they bumped into each other at the corner of the hallway?)

(It's so-so, but at least it works.)

Huang Lingyin mentally rehearsed several plans, but found that her plan was too complicated and too deliberate. On the other hand, Li Wei's method was simple and straightforward, and less likely to arouse suspicion, but she would have to fall.

After agreeing on this important matter, Huang Lingyin left Li Wei's dormitory. Huang Lingyin did not live in the same dormitory building as Li Wei, but in another dormitory building. The round trip between the two buildings took about ten minutes. It was not far, but it was not close either. Without being able to use ECHO, communication was indeed a bit troublesome.

Huang Lingyin is a very cautious person. Even when she goes out, she first checks whether there is anyone else in the corridor. However, Li Wei thinks that her behavior is unnecessary. After all, there are surveillance cameras everywhere in the academy, and Huang Lingyin herself is a product of compromise.

The academy is well aware of the people that various major powers are sending here, so the academy's core leadership knows exactly who the intelligence agents are and who the legitimate students are. However, the academy's core leadership turns a blind eye to such matters. Compared to deep spies who are completely uncontrollable, shallow spies like Huang Lingyin are more conducive to the academy's intelligence security.

Moreover, in Li Wei's view, Huang Lingyin was not mature enough as an intelligence agent. If she were more capable as an intelligence agent, the two sides would not need to communicate through typing at all, and the exchange of intelligence could be completely hidden in daily conversations.

However, considering that Huang Lingyin is only a teenager, it is already quite impressive that she has the courage to be an intelligence agent, so he cannot expect too much from her.

The next day, Li Wei went to class as usual, just like any other day. In class, Li Wei, as always, rested his chin on his hand and tilted his head to look at Yamada Maya, who was giving the lecture.

Maya Yamada was helpless against Li Wei's unchanging behavior. She could only glare at him fiercely when no one was paying attention. However, when their eyes met, Maya Yamada could feel the smile in Li Wei's eyes, which made her turn her head away in a panic, not daring to meet his gaze again.

After Li Wei took her to the infirmary last time, Yamada Maya realized that she no longer had any authority over Li Wei and could no longer use her status as a teacher to restrain him. Even using her status as an older sister didn't work well for Li Wei.

Maya Yamada grew angrier the more she thought about it. She looked at Li Wei and said with a smile, "Let Li Wei do this problem. After all, Li Wei is quite good at math, so let him set an example."

Although Li Wei had previously said that he had previewed the academic courses, she did not believe that Li Wei could preview all the courses. This was because when Li Wei was in her class, he neither looked at the blackboard nor the book, but just stared at her. In addition, the entire afternoon was spent on practical training, leaving only the evenings for him to study. However, the academic courses at IS Academy were quite demanding, and it was not easy to achieve good grades through self-study alone.

Li Wei stood up and took the chalk from Yamada Maya's hand. Because Li Wei was blocking Yamada Maya's view, the people below did not see that when Li Wei took the chalk, his index finger lightly brushed across Yamada Maya's palm.

This small gesture froze Yamada Maya completely. The tingling sensation in her palm felt like an electric shock, almost making her lose her balance. She could only punish Li Wei with her eyes, but Li Wei returned her smile. Yamada Maya grew angrier and angrier. Taking advantage of Li Wei's back being turned, she gently pinched his waist with her slender hand, venting her anger in this way.

Under Maya Yamada's watchful eye, Li Wei quickly wrote down the answer, adding complete steps along the way, filling almost half the blackboard with dense writing.

"..." Yamada Maya wanted to complain in her heart. There really are geniuses in this world. Some monsters cannot be measured by common sense.

"Teacher, I've finished my answer." Li Wei smiled and handed the chalk back to Yamada Maya, while once again taking advantage of her.

"Li Wei's answer was excellent, please have a seat." Yamada Maya gently slapped Li Wei's hand away and gave him a cute eye roll.

Li Wei was already used to it; teasing teachers was quite fun and exciting, especially watching Yamada Maya's adorable expression as she had to maintain her composure in front of the students and could only glare at him. He was even more addicted to it.

Chapter 1. Acting for the Academy

After school, Li Wei didn't linger. He said goodbye to Cecilia and Houki Shinonono and left decisively. Although the two girls were a little curious about why Li Wei was in such a hurry to leave, they didn't ask any questions. Li Wei pretended to need to go to the toilet and quickened his pace.

Li Wei calculated the agreed time and rushed to the designated location, where he and Huang Lingyin would perform and transmit the recording back to the academy's recording library via ECHO, thus completing their first meeting.

Huang Lingyin is not a technician. The reason she dared to come and meet Li Wei yesterday was because she interfered with ECHO's positioning function through special technology. ECHO's core function is recording, so it is not so easy to deceive her. That's why her actions were so complicated.

The technology possessed by the IS Academy is comparable to that of many major powers in certain cutting-edge fields. Only a few major powers could deceive ECHO; most countries do not possess such technology.

Li Wei sensed that Huang Lingyin had already appeared at the designated location. Just as she was about to reach the corner, Li Wei quickly knocked on the wall, producing a rhythmic thumping sound.

Hearing the darkness, Huang Lingyin, who was coming down the stairs, quickened her pace, and then, just as planned, the two bumped into each other.

Huang Lingyin was prepared to fall, but the expected pain did not come. When she opened her eyes, she found that Li Wei was acting as a cushion for her. She was riding on Li Wei's lower abdomen, and she could even clearly feel the touch of Li Wei's abdominal muscles.

"Are you alright, classmate?" Li Wei asked.

Neither side rehearsed their lines beforehand; these kinds of things can be done on the spot.

"I'm fine, but you, did you hurt yourself?" Huang Lingyin said with concern.

This was the first time Huang Lingyin had ever been so intimately close to a boy, and her heart was racing.

When Huang Lingyin learned that there were comrades on the hidden front within the academy, she felt both excited and apprehensive. After all, intelligence work was not an easy task, and if something went wrong, one could easily lose their life. Doing intelligence work alone within the academy made her feel lonely and fearful. However, when she discovered that there were other comrades around her, she felt that she was not alone and helpless.

However, Huang Lingyin did not expect that this comrade on the hidden front was actually the only male in the academy, Li Wei.

Huang Lingyin knew a bit about Li Wei. After all, as the only male student in the academy, it was impossible for him not to attract attention. Li Wei not only excelled in academic subjects, but also had considerable talent in IS armor operation. In addition, he had a good temper, making him exceptionally popular among the girls in the academy. Even many teachers liked this star student who excelled in both character and academics.

When Huang Lingyin learned that Li Wei was the comrade on the secret front, she couldn't believe it. After all, Li Wei was far too conspicuous, and many people's attention was focused on him. However, she thought that the most dangerous place was often the safest place. Although many people were watching Li Wei, this also made people think that Li Wei couldn't be an intelligence agent.

Huang Lingyin snapped out of her reverie and realized that she had been staring at Li Wei in a daze. Li Wei was the most handsome man she had ever seen, without exception. He possessed a masculine beauty that was different from the effeminate style that was popular at the time. He was more mature and steady, and it seemed that just standing next to him could give her a sense of security.

"Sorry, I was daydreaming," Huang Lingyin said shyly.

"Did you hurt yourself? Are you a little disoriented? Do you need me to take you to the school clinic?" Li Wei asked.

"I'm fine, but you, you fell pretty hard just now. I should be the one to go to the school clinic with you. Li Wei, I'm so sorry." Huang Lingyin placed her hands on Li Wei's chest, quickly stood up, and then took Li Wei's hand and helped him up.

“You know me?” Li Wei said.

“You are the only male in the academy, and many people know you, including me,” Huang Lingyin said.

"I haven't asked your name yet," Li Wei said.

“Huang Lingyin,” Huang Lingyin said.

"Huang... are you from Chong Kingdom?" Li Wei asked, feigning surprise.

Huang Lingyin's slightly childish face puffed up a little as she said, "Of course I'm a Chinese, just like you."

Huang Lingyin speaks fluent Mandarin with a slight coastal accent. Although her accent is different from Li Wei's, it is a blessing to meet someone who speaks the same language as you in a foreign land.
