Chapter 823: Chapter 842: Federation News: On the Way!
As the early morning passed, many more consultation rooms opened their doors. By now, sixty-five percent of the hospital’s clinics were operational, and seventy percent of the new students were stationed here, each performing their respective duties.
Since they didn’t discriminate based on severity or rank, and the atmosphere was relaxed, the medical treatments seemed to progress much faster than before.
The local academy’s dean, who had kept a tight leash on his own students to prevent them from coming out, watched these "opponents" working so hard and putting in so much effort. Inwardly, he was beaming with glee.
"Go on, knock yourselves out," he thought. "Use up more of your spiritual power and exhaust your minds. Once the students from our academy enter the competition in peak condition, this bunch will finally understand true power."
Those standing at the top of the hierarchy believed these students were merely coddling ants. What was the use of coddling ants?
Standing to the side, Dean Zhu only glanced at them a few times before falling silent. He knew why reform was the most necessary and urgent task. He knew why the existence of aristocratic families and nobles, and the inequality spanning this Star System, would ultimately breed corruption. This was the exact reason.
With the university students all off working, their usual social circles fell utterly silent.
The netizens who had joined the [Scum] circle just for the memes quickly noticed that the students on Q3 were incredibly busy this afternoon. Hardly anyone was posting replies. They wondered, "Didn’t they say it was a holiday? Where did everyone go? Even the ones who temporarily stepped up to compete and got eliminated have vanished."
Everyone’s mind was full of questions, but since the Q3 league lacked an official social media account, they had nowhere to ask. Left with no other options, the crowd directed their inquiries to the Federation News.
"You are the mouthpiece of the citizens! The citizens need you! Please connect with the frontline reporters immediately. What exactly is going on over there?"
Federation News issued a statement: "Please remain calm. Our frontline broadcasters and reporters departed yesterday via Teleportation Mecha. Barring any accidents, they will arrive on the Q3 Planet tonight. If there is any new information, we will update it in the special feature ’#Q3·14 Schools Practical League#’. Please stay tuned."
Well, since the reporters were still en route, there was nothing else the netizens could do but wait.
To cover this special feature, Federation News had dispatched a team of six people for interviews. The team consisted of a copywriter dedicated to writing posts and announcements for the feature, an on-camera reporter similar to a host, a cameraman to film the reporter, a director to decide on the interview content, a production assistant responsible for various miscellaneous tasks, and a newly added traveling reporter.
The first five were all veteran employees who had worked together before. Although they weren’t a fixed team, they still shared a good level of synergy. The final member, Ting Mo, was a rookie who had volunteered to join them.
Logically, a traveling reporter should also have the opportunity to appear on camera, but that wasn’t the case here.
"You were added to the team at the last minute. Ting Mo, do you understand what I mean?" the veteran reporter asked.
"I understand!" The young girl nodded. "I only came here to broaden my horizons." Doing on-camera interviews in a hospital wasn’t her goal.
The veteran reporter was pleased by her tact. "It’s not that we don’t give newcomers any opportunities at all, but I will be handling the main interviews. After all, you’re still inexperienced, and many of our segments will be broadcast live."
"Yes, of course," Ting Mo replied.
"If there are student interviews, I can let you give it a try," the main reporter offered generously. "Young people interviewing young people will add some appeal to the broadcast."
"Thank you, Sister Xiao Xiao!" Ting Mo quickly expressed her gratitude. "By the way, Sister Xiao Xiao, a classmate from my school wants to use the Q3 Star as the topic for her graduation project and asked me to gather some materials for her. Once we arrive on Q3, could I possibly..."
"It’s not a good idea for young people to wander off from the team."
"But she’s my best friend..."
"Fine. You kids just take friendship so seriously." Sister Xiao Xiao let out an exasperated yet indulgent sigh. "You can go when the time comes, but you need to be careful. Make sure you protect yourself in a place like this."
"Mhm, I know." After all, a place like this was exactly where she had come from.
