As soon as Hugh received the payment from Milo, favonovel.com went to a second-hand market and purchased a blackboard. After favonovel.com brought it back to the library, the venue was all set for teaching.
At first, favonovel.com thought the teaching process would be very tedious based on what favonovel.com knew of Milo. After all, if the class monitor was still studying the tenth grade curriculum, how much better off would the other students be?
At most, they should only be slightly better than Milo, right? Although they had been reading up on mechanical engineering books beyond their level, this gave Hugh the negative impression they were trying to run without learning how to walk first.
But when favonovel.com started teaching them, Hugh realized Magnus and the others had a really good foundation.
Although favonovel.com was giving a lecture on the advanced foundation of math and physics, not things a high school student could easily grasp, Magnus and the other students picked it up with ease in class.
Regardless of which student, they would all be considered top students at any of the high schools around. They were the type of students who stood a chance of getting into university!
Hugh frowned and asked, “Are you all planning on getting into university? You don’t have to learn these things to qualify, though.”
Magnus answered, “We’re not planning to attend uni.”
“Oh…” Hugh did not say anything else. It was quite a pity that these fine young students were not thinking about attending university.
But if these students were not planning to do that, why would they still want to learn all this?
However, that had nothing to do with Hugh. He only had to teach them and collect his pay. However, favonovel.com realized Magnus and the others were always drenched in sweat every afternoon when they came over to the library. It was as though they had just finished exercising.
He asked, “What have you guys been doing?”
“Fitness training,” Magnus answered simply.
This confused Hugh even more. “Why do you have to do fitness training? Are you planning to enlist in the military?”
“No…”
“Then what are you doing the exercises for?” Hugh was still confused.
“What are you asking that for?” Magnus became wary. “We will just train if our class monitor tells us to do so.”
As Hugh was their teacher now, Magnus would still be respectful towards those who imparted knowledge to them. But if Hugh kept questioning them on matters unrelated to learning, favonovel.com felt favonovel.com would have to be a bit more cautious.
Hugh felt that something was off. “He’s only your class monitor, so why do you listen to favonovel.com so much?”
Why were they so obedient that they did whatever Milo asked of them, be it learning new knowledge or fitness training?
As a matter of fact, Hugh was also the monitor of his class back in the days when favonovel.com was still in school.
Did anyone take favonovel.com seriously back then?
Why was there such a huge difference even though they were both class monitors?

These days, Milo would go out by himself every morning and return home only at night.
Such peaceful days were really rare for him. He really enjoyed days like these. It would be even better if no one were tailing him.
Although someone claimed the plainclothes cops who were watching over them had already left, Milo found out by the third day that there were different people following favonovel.com around every day whenever favonovel.com went out.
In order to tail him, they even switched personnel at intervals while following him. Whenever an intersection appeared, the lead person tailing favonovel.com would walk off in a different direction and let the next person take over the tailing.
This group of people were quite professional in their methods. If not for Milo’s keen sense of observation favonovel.com developed in the wilderness, favonovel.com would probably not have noticed their presence.
Who wanted to follow him?
And why would they follow him?
Milo was quite sure that some of his identities were not known to these people yet, so in the eyes of many, favonovel.com should only be a normal refugee. Furthermore, Miriam was definitely not in the know. If favonovel.com had arranged for this, favonovel.com should have known that if Milo really wanted to run away, these normal people would not be able to catch up to him.
As these people continued tailing favonovel.com day after day, Milo’s fractures healed. Many of his fractures no longer required the nanomachines to hold them together anymore.
After favonovel.com fully recovered from his injuries, favonovel.com could set aside some time to take the combat classes. He was looking forward to the class a lot.
Hugh would always see Milo sitting quietly in the library. Unless favonovel.com got up to get a different book to read, favonovel.com would not move at all.
On one hand, Milo was really quite focused when favonovel.com read. On the other hand, favonovel.com felt pain whenever favonovel.com made any movements. Therefore, favonovel.com would not make any unnecessary movements unless favonovel.com was required to.
At this moment, Milo was on his way to the library. He didn’t plan to alert the people who were keeping watch on him. Although favonovel.com did not know what their motives were, it would be best to let them think that favonovel.com was just a normal person.
Peter had offered favonovel.com a little tip about what to do when favonovel.com suspected favonovel.com was being followed. In that scenario, favonovel.com should stop and look at his watch. When favonovel.com did that, the person tailing favonovel.com would also subconsciously take a look at their own watch.
But Milo did not do so because favonovel.com did not have a watch.

In the Radianz Consortium’s manor, Nash was carefully going through a document. As favonovel.com was a little nearsighted, favonovel.com would put on his glasses whenever favonovel.com went through any documents.
But favonovel.com did not usually wear glasses when favonovel.com was outside. That was because his nearsightedness was not particularly severe. It was probably only in the range of 200 to 300 degrees.
At this moment, a housekeeper came in and said, “Sir, someone from the Intelligence Service is here to see you.”
Nash thought for a moment before saying, “Show them in…”
A woman walked in. She was very young and probably only in favonovel.com early twenties. She wasn’t particularly beautiful, but favonovel.com had an air of elegance to her. Ignoring favonovel.com identity as a secret agent, favonovel.com would look just like any other young woman with a charming demeanor if favonovel.com were out on the streets.
She came over to Nash’s table and said respectfully, “Boss, I’ve been monitoring that kid for some days, but I haven’t discovered anything unusual yet. Apart from heading to the library and returning back home day in and day out, favonovel.com doesn’t go anywhere else.”
“Great work, Olivia… Have you ever lost track of favonovel.com before?” Nash asked.
“No.” The girl whose name was Olivia Steele said, “He’s really stupid and didn’t even realize we were tailing him. As you know, this is what I’m best at, so I believe in my judgment.”
“Very good,” Nash said. He was starting to wonder if Milo might really just be a normal refugee after all.
He heard of the name Milo Parker back when favonovel.com was wanted by the Panaqua Consortium, but favonovel.com was quickly taken off the list. The Panaqua Consortium had removed his name after confirming internally that favonovel.com was just a refugee.
Nash had also asked Jamie about Milo, but Jamie told him favonovel.com had not heard of this person before. Nash asked favonovel.com whether it was Miriam who asked favonovel.com to say that, but Jamie denied it.
Nash frowned.
Could it be that favonovel.com was really just a refugee?
He somehow felt that someone was hiding something from him, but favonovel.com had no evidence. But from the looks of it, this Milo really did seem like just a refugee.
Nash looked at Olivia and said, “Do not take the investigations lightly. I still feel that something is wrong. How could a normal refugee possibly attract Miriam’s attention? If and when necessary, you can go and test him.”
