Lionheart Society: I am an S-class freshman, with infinite power of words.

"Stop joking around with me!" Lin Chen said. "How's it going with the task I assigned you?"

Fingel immediately downed a glass of dark beer: "Just because you've treated me to so many late-night snacks, I'd be perfectly willing to stay up all night to do my job!"

Nono was a little surprised: "I didn't expect you to be so loyal!"

Fingel patted his chest and declared, "The friendship between men is as strong as iron!"

Lin Chen took a new bottle of dark beer from the liquor basket next to him and tossed it to Fingel.

Susie said, "Lin Chen kept telling us he had an unreliable roommate, but I never expected you to actually be able to come in handy!"

Fingel chuckled: "Lin Chen has been so good to me, I have to repay him. Give me one night, and I can definitely ruin the investigation team's reputation!"

Nono tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Is your news really that useful?"

Fingel opened a bottle of dark beer and took a big gulp: "When it comes to propaganda warfare, I, Fingel, have never been afraid of anyone. Wait until tomorrow morning, and I'll make sure you're all blinded by my brilliance!"

This seemingly useless person is not entirely without merit; he is the head of the college's news department.

In everyday life, this good-for-nothing might be nothing, but when it comes to playing the war of public opinion, he's an absolute master.

What Lin Chen valued was Fingel's ability in this area.

So the day before, Lin Chen called Fingel over.

"Fingal, let's be honest with each other, how have I treated you!"

Fingel lifted his dirty shirt, revealing a slightly protruding beer belly: "Of course! Look at my little belly, you've made it like this. I've eaten plenty of your late-night snacks these past six months!"

Lin Chen nodded: "You still have some conscience, kid. I'll tell you the truth, I'm in a bit of trouble and I need your help!"

Fingel immediately became curious: "What trouble!"

"The Gattuso family wants to kick me out of the academy. If they succeed, you'll be living alone in a dormitory from now on!"

Fingel's eyes widened: "What! Those guys want to get rid of my free midnight snack... wait, I mean, they want to get rid of my roommate!"

Lin Chen then looked directly into Fingel's eyes: "Can you tolerate this?"

"I absolutely can't stand it!"

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"We absolutely cannot let them succeed! So what if they're the Gattuso family? We'll send them back to where they came from! If they want to mess with my roommate, they'll have to ask me first!"

"Very good! Then come out of seclusion!"

"Um... Lin Chen, let me be frank with you, although I really want to help you, that's the Gattuso family! Not to mention me, even Principal Angers would have to think twice!"

"No need for that trouble." Lin Chen shook his head. "I have a plan here. You just need to help me publish a few news articles!"

Fingel perked up again: "No problem! For my free midnight snacks in the future, I'll even hack into the Pentagon's internal network to send you the news!"

"No need for that. The investigation team wants to cause me trouble, but before that, you need to cause them trouble!"

Fingel slapped his thigh: "I know this. In your China, it's called 'an eye for an eye'!"

……

Nine o'clock at night.

Amber Hall.

Caesar and the student council officers sat in the hall, each with a slightly furrowed brow.

Several bottles of fine wine were displayed on the surrounding food carts, and the surrounding furnishings indicated that this was a small welcoming ceremony.

The blond Percy walked in and bowed slightly to Caesar.

“Young Master!” Percy said, “I’m sorry to have kept you waiting!”

A hint of displeasure flashed across Caesar's face: "You're late, Percy."

Percy bowed again: "I apologize for the time delay. I visited some friends at the academy. I had Andrew convey my arrangements to you, but he didn't tell you?"

Caesar's expression turned complicated: "Andrew? Where is he?"

Percy looked up abruptly: "You haven't seen him yet?"

Caesar looked at Percy with displeasure: "The academy specially adjusted the train schedule for your arrival. Didn't you come together?"

Percy nodded: "It's true that we came together, but I separated from him before getting off the bus."

He was the most secretive member of the investigation team, and no one could direct his actions, so he chose to travel alone.

"I've been waiting for them!" Caesar slammed his fist on the table. "Where did he go with his investigation team?!"

Percy was shocked: "How is that possible? He entered the academy two hours ago, why hasn't he come to visit you yet!"

Caesar stared into Percy's eyes, his gaze as sharp as an eagle's.

He was an arrogant person, and in his eyes, Lin Chen was an enemy that he should defeat with his own hands.

However, for various reasons, the family chose to target Lin Chen, and even sent an investigation team to the academy to make things difficult for him.

This made Caesar feel embarrassed, as he had intended to give a proper speech at today's welcoming ceremony.

But now, the late Percy has arrived, and Andrew and his investigation team are still nowhere to be found.

Percy quickly pulled out his phone and called Andrew.

After a long wait, Andrew's phone went unanswered.

Caesar picked up the glass of red wine on the table, trying to remain calm, but the bulging veins on his hand betrayed him.

Percy frowned deeply with tension and dialed the phone numbers of the other members of the investigation team.

After making several calls, Andrew finally answered on the second try!

Percy's golden eyes gleamed with rage: "Andrew! What's going on? Where are you!"

Caesar's cold gaze also fell upon them. The fact that his family had sent someone like this made him feel utterly humiliated!

There was a noisy commotion on the other end of the phone, with music and cheers from the crowd!

Andrew's voice finally broke through the noise: "Secretary Percy? What's wrong?"

Percy snapped, "What? What happened? The young master prepared a welcoming ceremony, everyone is waiting for you, where have you been?"

Andrew was baffled: "Welcoming ceremony? We're in the middle of a welcoming ceremony right now. Please tell the young master that he's too kind. The welcoming ceremony is wonderfully prepared, with all sorts of drinks, young ladies, and a ball. We love it!"

Percy was stunned: "You're in the middle of a welcoming ceremony? How is that possible!"

Caesar was also bewildered: "What young girl? What ball? When did we prepare such a thing!"

Caesar's henchman nearby shuddered and whispered in Caesar's ear, "Boss, I heard the Lionheart Society has a ball tonight, could it be..."

Caesar's pupils constricted sharply: "You mean the investigation team was taken away by the Lionheart Society? They attended the Lionheart Society's welcoming ceremony?"

Percy's face was also filled with shock: "Lionheart Society? Lin Chen!"

The younger brother hesitated and scratched his head: "You said that today's welcome should be low-key and that you don't want to hear outside opinions, so we didn't tell you. Actually, the Lionheart Society also had a welcoming event at the train platform this afternoon. I guess that's when they picked up the investigation team!"

Percy was furious: "Andrew! Are you crazy? Get back here right now!"

Their goal was to join forces with Caesar's student council and then deal with Lin Chen and the Lionheart Society behind him.

But before they even stepped into the academy, they fell into the Lionheart Society's trap and were led directly into the enemy's lair.

Veins bulged on Caesar's neck like small snakes: "Useless trash! When did the Gattuso family ever have such trash!"

Percy was about to yell again, but Andrew's excited voice was still coming from the other end.

"Secretary Percy, it's too noisy here, I can't hear you. Please convey my and the investigation team's gratitude to the young master. I will pay him a visit after the ball!"

The call was disconnected at that moment, leaving only the beeping sound in the receiver.

Caesar clenched his fists, now as furious as a bull!

Percy lowered his head. While Andrew was certainly terribly wrong, he, as the family secretary, was also partly to blame in this matter.

"I'm so sorry, young master!" Percy said. "I didn't expect Lin Chen to be so despicable, nor did I expect Andrew to be so stupid. I'll go and bring him to you right now to apologize!"

Caesar slammed his fist on the table in front of him: "No need! He wants to play, doesn't he? Then let him play to his heart's content! Once he sobers up, call him to see me, and I'll wipe out his entire line at the family meeting!"

Percy fell silent.

Even though he was the family secretary, wielding immense power and possessing extraordinary strength, he was still just a servant in front of the young master of the family.

Percy sighed, wanting to say something more, but Caesar had already stormed off in anger!

Although Caesar is gone, his orders still need to be carried out.

The young master said he would see Andrew tomorrow, so we'll make arrangements tomorrow.

Percy didn't like Andrew much either, and he didn't mind if the guy got a good scolding from Caesar tomorrow.

In any case, he never expected Andrew to do anything; Percy's arrogance only saw himself.

He was the most elite executor of the Gattuso family, a fact that even Caesar could not match.

Percy sighed, turned around, and left.

The Norton House in the distance was brightly lit, and the ball was still going on.

The lights in the Ambrose Pavilion behind them were off, and it looked as desolate as a neglected graveyard.
