Bulgarian Empire

Chapter 29: Handling

When he saw his student, who had become a hawk of the dictatorship, Orsk was in a bad mood and did not accept Yakov's greeting. He said with a cold smile, "I'm fine! You've brought people here to arrest me, how can it be bad?"

Yakov is so uneasy. The current situation makes him very awkward. The angry older man across the street made him retreat.

On one side is the task from above. The other side is his benefactor. To complete the task, it will have to break with his benefactor that made his conscience uneasy. When he considers the favor, his career is finished, it will turn more than ten years of struggle into wasted time.

Yakov's uncertainty instantly stirred up the morale of the teachers. It turned out that these police officers were not as vicious as they were said to be.

One after another, they cast their eyes among the officers and searched for a familiar target. Soon someone had achieved a battle result.

Aleko then found a target and walked up to a young officer and cursed angrily, "Ralf, you son of a bitch. Now get your ass home right now!"

Ralf said in defense, "But Uncle Aleko, I'm on a mission. If I leave now, it will ruin my job!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Aleko pointed a shaky finger at Ralf's nose and roared in anger, "Son of a bitch, is the job the only thing in your heart? Are you still a human being? Do you know what conscience is? Do you have any sense of shame?"

Ralf fell back from the scolding. Apparently, he did not expect that his explanation would make his uncle so angry.

A few moments later, a few more unlucky people were caught by the angry teachers and scolded angrily.

Yakov began to rush. He knew it was going to be a disaster. On the surface, he is indeed the highest person in charge of the scene. It is related to the context of all the decisive flash. Foll𝑜ow current novÊls on nov3lb((in).(com)

But Yakov simply did not have the power to order a retreat. However, he could not watch his men, being cursed with a loss of morale.

He gritted his teeth and said in a shaky voice, "Mr. Orsk, I'm sorry to have disturbed you! I was ordered to come here today, and the police have concrete proof that the university is harboring suspects!"

"Just give up your suspects or let us go in and arrest them ourselves. I promise I won't implicate anyone else!"

"Don't get upset, I'll be straight with you! This matter, is no longer in my control. I do not want to do so, all the above, I am really powerless!"

Seeing that he almost did it, Adolf Kohl came out and said slowly, "So, Mr. Yakov was forced to do the same?"

Yakov couldn't help but nod his head, stating that he was utterly forced to do so.

Seeing that Yakov admitted it, Kohl made up some crazy story in front of everyone and said, "Well, then, in that case, we won't make things harder for you. Here is a protest letter jointly drafted by all the staff of our university, there are three copies. Please forward this one to your superiors!"

Yakov took the letter of protest in a daze, only to see the cover written with a frown on it, "All members of the University of Bulgaria ~ a proposal to protest the illegal police siege of the university."

Yakov instantly reacted, "Oh no! The rector of the University of Bulgaria is Knyaz Ferdinand, this is a big problem! What will happen up there, he does not know. Anyway, these small pawns under them, will definitely be in big trouble!"

"Now we have no choice but to rush hard. As long as we catch the suspect and then do the actual crime, then even if the trouble is made, the burden will be much lighter."

Yakov still decided to fight for it, try to make a big deal out of it, and said in a trembling voice: "Gentlemen, it hasn't come to that yet!"

"No, it has come to this!" Chekhov said in a loud voice as he hurried to come.

The crowd relaxed when they saw Chekhov coming, along with the Royal Guard. The police could not force their way into the campus in front of the Minister of Education! Besides, there is still a group of soldiers. The police now have no guts to mess up even if they flip out!

The old masters now look at Chekhov very well, they think he is "smart, capable and courageous, and he rushed to help at the critical moment!"

Many people secretly thought it is different to find a rector who comes from a big one. The police are recklessly arresting people outside, but they are still disciplined when they arrive at the university.

Even if they catch the proof, they must follow the rules. If they break the rules, one can find the boss to sue them!

When he saw Chekhov, Yakov's sore head got even worse. What the hell, for a bunch of small people, a minister of yours have come out himself to do? And also, with a group of soldiers, is it necessary? What else can I do with you?

Now is no longer a matter of thought about the task. The key is to think about how to aftermath. It would be a bad thing to hold this big minister and call the police department to catch people!

Chekhov did not care what Yakov thought. A police officer, even the boss of the Sofia police, is far from his rank? Although he has the lowest real power among all government ministers, the level is not low enough!

After looking around, Chekhov said directly to Yakov without any nonsense: "Listen carefully, take your people and get out at once. The university is taken over by us from now on. If there is any problem, you can appeal to His Highness!"

Yakov was so startled that he nodded his head and said, "Yes, we'll leave right away!" After saying that, the police sent a whistle, quickly led the people away.

Chekhov ignored the response of the police and entered the campus directly with the crowd.

The hearts of the people have just begun to fall and are suspended again. All know that this time things have gone too far to settle scores after the event.

When they reached the meeting room, Chekhov's face sank, and he calmly said, "Call out all the people you're hiding! Don't give me excuses! No matter what the reason is, you have all severely violated the university rules, and there is no choice but to punish you!"

"Anyone of you who hides someone will be in charge of their custody and will have to sign a warranty statement! We will take our time to inspect. If it is indeed a criminal, you will be held responsible for the crime together, any questions?"

"No problem, we'll sign right away!" The people said in unison.

When Chekhov heard the words of the crowd, he smiled bitterly and said, "Then it's good to leave it to you, Mr. Kohl. Please record the list. This company of soldiers will be under your command and in charge of keeping the security of the university!"

"In any case, all of you are serving as teachers. Think calmly about what you are doing today, is it in line with the code of conduct of a teacher?"

"His Highness has said that the upright side of the pillar should be passed down to the next! I don't want you to pass on this selfish side to the next generation!"

"For those of you who directly violate the university rules, the penalties are as follows: 1. No promotion for life; 2. Permanent deduction of half of your salary; 3. You will submit a profound report and recite it publicly in front of the entire campus!"

The faces of the crowd paled. This sanction was completely painful to the skin! In fact, Chekhov also resolved too far, but at that time to rush to save lives, there was no argument against Ferdinand.

Intellectuals are upright. They have to show their uprightness, at least in front of outsiders. They really can't say why they oppose the punishment in the face of painful consequences.
