The next morning, Ming begins to prepare for the next day's training session. He asks zicheng if there is any special reason why he should arrest his old friend, and Ming replies that he does not want to embarrass his father. He says that when he puts on his new uniform, his own thoughts no longer matter, and that friends are far more important to him than this uniform. He tells Ming that he cannot give up the uniform, but he must take a call before he can do so. Ming asks what the matter is, and he says that he is anxious because he thinks that his father and his friend, both members of the holy guard, frequently go together. He also says that Ming's father is very familiar with his friend and that he will eventually become enemies with him and the others. Ming says that it would be better if nothing happens, as the exam for the upcoming freshman class is only a month away
