Chapter 461 Farewell
It's still dark.
Lin Zhi, who had been awake almost all night, sat up from the bed.
He landed on his bare feet, walked to the thick curtain, and stretched out his hand to open a gap.
Outside the window, the moonless night sky was filled with stars. He listened carefully to the sounds outside and confirmed that except for the chirping of insects on the spring night, there was no other sound.
call
Heaving a sigh of relief, Lin Zhi sat back on the bed and shook his head subconsciously:
"It's my nerves."
"Today, we should be able to return. I really can't delay here any longer."
After thinking about it, he almost subconsciously wiped the "warehouse" on his finger.
A small dress fell out of the warehouse and landed on the bed.
The clothes were neatly folded and put in the warehouse by him. It looked like they should be of a size that a girl of about ten years old could wear.
But at this moment, Lin Zhi looked at this dress with mixed feelings in his heart.
After calming down, he almost subconsciously looked at the sofa in the corner of the room. His eyes seemed to want to find something, but his expression was a bit rejecting, as if he was worried that the cute girl wearing a long skirt would suddenly appear on the sofa.
However, it was empty and there was no one on the sofa.
Only the sofa cushion that the girl once sat on was leaning there in a shape as if someone had sat on it.
Lin Zhi felt that his heart seemed to be inexplicably stimulated, beating violently and uncontrollably, forcing him to close his eyes and calm down.
A few days ago, that night when she first arrived in Dongcheng City, she had been sitting there, as quiet as an ordinary child sleeping peacefully.
But now, she is no longer here
It was used as a consumable item like a tool!
Lin Zhi secretly decided that he must return to Ayerkula Island as soon as possible today, return to the sky city Ouranos, and return to his teacher.
Yes! When you hold huge secrets, you are safe only when you are by the teacher's side.
After making up her mind, Lin Zhi took out a long breath again, as if to relieve the lead-like pressure in her chest.
This time when I came to Dongcheng City, I was commissioned by the judge teacher to assist the young master of the Federation's Shouyang Province family to advance to the red level.
This was not originally a special task. Even in normal times, the Judgment Council would often send judges in yellow to preside over upgrade ceremonies for the punishers of the Supervisory Offices in various places.
Only this time, the situation is a bit special!
The teacher seemed to be worried that something might happen to Master Ouyang when he was promoted, so he privately revealed to himself a method that could 100% guarantee the success of the contractor's promotion, and asked him to use this method so that Master Ouyang could advance smoothly.
Lin Zhi also knew for the first time that there was actually a way in this world for contractors to avoid the risks of advancement!
This method is only hidden among the top management of Pandora, among the chiefs who are at least half-spiritual level. It is a quite big secret among the top management of Pandora.
By some mistake, he actually learned this secret through such a mission!
In addition to being pleasantly surprised, Lin Zhi became more worried.
He even thought about whether he would be silenced by his teacher after completing his mission if he carried such an important secret?
After all, a common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade!
I am just a small orange-level judge, but I know the secrets of high-level officials beyond my own level. There is no guarantee that I will not worry about my life and safety.
However, after careful consideration, he gradually determined that the teacher was not just using him and then silencing him.
Before leaving, the teacher said that he was his most promising student, and in the future, he would be the one with the best chance of becoming the chief judge among the teacher’s students. The teacher told him this secret in advance in order to spur himself on.
Level up as soon as possible, become a half-spirit as soon as possible, and become the chief of the Trial Council.
Moreover, the teacher did not leave Ouranos City in person this time. It was indeed because of the chaos in the Trial Council that he could not leave.
The chief judge of the Judgment Council betrayed Pandora, which brought immeasurable consequences to the Trial Council and even the entire City of Pan Sky. At the same time, it also made the teacher busy. After all, he is one of the most promising candidates to become the next chief judge.
one.
It wasn't until Lin Zhi figured this out that he became ecstatic!
It seems that I was overly concerned and did not have the risk that I subconsciously thought of, but I learned a shocking secret.
Knowing this, not only can I use it when I upgrade my level, but I can also be sure that my teacher really values and trusts me, which greatly increases my probability of becoming the chief of the Judgment Council in the future.
However, when he heard the teacher tell the secret in a low tone, Lin Zhi was shocked again.
He was shocked by the form and cruelty of this method!
This kept him unable to sleep for several days——
As long as you close your eyes, you can feel that the pretty little girl with two braids is still sitting on the sofa.
He almost tried his best to stabilize his emotions, and then he forced himself to calm down during the conversation with Ouyang Xingsheng, so that the senior federal official did not notice anything strange and agreed to hand over Young Master Ouyang to him.
He did a very good job of keeping secret, very good. He covered the eyes of the person involved, Master Ouyang, and brought him into the room, and used the side effect of "amnesia" to make him sleep.
So, he controlled the entire process.
Completed the task successfully.
In this case, Master Ouyang will successfully advance to the red level without any obstacles, and there will no longer be the risk of death or becoming a ghost.
After this, there is no need to host any promotion ceremonies, because there is no need to use the methods circulated within the Judgment Council to protect the promoted contractors from death.
He was upset in his heart. He originally thought that after finishing the job, he would say goodbye to Ouyang Xingsheng and immediately return to Ouranos to report to his mentor. However, he did not expect that Ouyang Xingsheng would be surprisingly polite and said that he would do his best to serve as a landlord and let himself be there.
We stayed in Dongcheng City for one more day.
It’s hard to refuse. Ouyang Yao is a top figure in the federation and is the teacher’s friend. Of course, the teacher may run for justice this time and needs support from Ouyang Province on some matters. Although he is only a senior federal official and cannot interfere with infiltration
Enter Pandora Headquarters
All in all, Ouyang Yao was someone he could not offend. For the sake of his son's smooth promotion, the teacher did not hesitate to violate Pandora's regulations and tell him the secret and let himself be the guard, which already showed that the teacher valued this friend from the province.
What's more, if you forcefully leave regardless of social etiquette, it will indicate that there is something wrong with you.
The teacher said, try to maintain the same posture as usual, and don't let others see the difference.
The matter is over. But, I still can't sleep.
that little girl
Why
After letting out a long sigh, Lin Zhi looked at the ceiling and rubbed his sore eyes with his hands due to being unable to sleep for a long time.
Fortunately, we should be able to leave here today and return.
When we return to Ouranos, we should be able to get a good night's sleep.
Just when his brain was exhausted and thinking wildly, footsteps suddenly came from far and near outside the bedroom door.
Anyone?
Lin Zhi's eyes suddenly widened, he took out the revolver from under the pillow, stood up from the bed, and stepped behind the door vigilantly, trying to identify the purpose of the person walking outside the door based on the sound.
Sure enough, he came to find me
From the Ouyang family?
Tuk~~Tuk~~Tuk
After knocking on the door three times, the butler's aristocratic voice sounded outside:
"Mr. Lin, I'm sorry to bother you so early!"
"Mr. Lin, I'd like to invite you!"
Lin Zhi turned to look at the window again, and checked through the gap in the curtains that it was not yet dawn. He looked at the wall clock again, and sure enough, it was only 5:28 in the morning.
If he didn't speak immediately and answered immediately, wouldn't it mean that he was not asleep?
"Mr. Lin"
Tuk~tuk~tuk
It wasn't until the housekeeper knocked on the bedroom door for the second time that Lin Zhi tiptoed back to the bed and responded with a hoarse voice that just woke up:
"etc!"
Then, he put the small set of clothes beside the bed back into the warehouse, looked around the room again, and then walked towards the door.
Outside the door was the apologetic butler.
"Mr. Lin, I'm really sorry for disturbing your sleep!"
"The master has some temporary business and has to leave early in the morning. I'm afraid I won't have time to see you today, so I wanted to meet you before leaving."
Say goodbye. Lin Zhi thought about it for a few seconds, didn't notice anything unusual, and responded:
"Okay, I'll get ready."
After saying that, he closed the door, quickly changed into the judge's yellow robe, and opened the door again.
The butler still looked apologetic:
"I am sorry."
"It's okay, Ouyang Xingsheng is too polite." Lin Zhi said casually.
I talked to Ouyang Xingsheng about staying at the Ouyang Mansion for an extra day. It was indeed agreed that when I left today, he didn't forget to say goodbye to me, the judge, in person. This shows that Ouyang Xingsheng still has a close relationship with the teacher. He attaches great importance to and
Teacher's courtesy. Lin Zhi thought in his mind as he followed the housekeeper.
Although Ouyang's house is large, the distance to the study is not far. Lin Zhi, who was wearing a yellow robe, was quickly taken into the study.
Seeing Lin Zhi, Ouyang Yao said in a very enthusiastic but apologetic tone:
"Lin Huangyi, I'm disturbing your dreams. Ouyang Yao is here to help you."
"Please take a seat."
Ouyang Xingsheng, there is another man wearing a shirt and vest.
This man was very young and handsome. He was helping Ouyang Xingxing organize the files on his desktop. When he saw him coming in, he put down what he was doing and stood quietly behind Ouyang Xingsheng.
Apparently, it should be a document from Ouyang Province.
Lin Zhi replied: "Ouyang Xingsheng is so polite."
"I have to go out for an inspection at the moment. I'm worried that I won't have the chance to say goodbye to Lin Huangyi in person, so I have to wake you up so early." As Ouyang Yao said, he waved to the secretary behind him and looked at him with gratitude again.
Lin Zhi:
"Thanks to Lin Huangyi's help, Quanzi has been successfully promoted to the red level."
That was the sacrifice of a living life. Hearing Ouyang Xingsheng express his gratitude, Lin Zhi subconsciously thought of the little girl's appearance during her lifetime, but she had to keep calm:
"Congratulations to Ouyang Xingsheng!"
"This is what the teacher ordered. Lin acted according to the teacher's order and accepted Ouyang Xingsheng's care."
But the young clerk next to him moved. Under Ouyang Yao's gesture just now, the clerk turned around and went to the clerk next to him. He made two cups of hot tea with a very skillful technique and brought it over with steady steps.
Contractor?
Seeing that this clerk's steps were particularly steady, Lin Zhi made a guess.
However, if the people around Ouyang Xingsheng are contractors, there is nothing surprising. After all, most of the top federal officials are surrounded by contractors, which can provide security protection.
The young clerk steadily placed the tea beside the two of them, stepped back behind Ouyang Xingsheng again, and nodded silently.
Lin Zhi: "Ouyang Xingsheng, thank you for your hospitality yesterday."
"You are busy with official duties, so don't worry about me. I will leave on my own today."
Ouyang Yao nodded: "Please convey my gratitude to Judge Lu Yuan when you return."
Lin Zhi cupped his hands in response.
Ouyang Yao turned to look at his secretary and asked again:
"How can Lin Huangyi return? If it's a train, I'll ask the secretary to book a ticket for you."
Lin Zhi waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have my own way back."
"Fortunately, this is Dongcheng City. I can order the captain of Dongcheng City's Punisher to send me back. His abilities are just right for the return journey."
"Oh~~That's just right!" Ouyang Yao suddenly replied.
After thinking about it, Ouyang Yao stretched out his hand to signal:
"Lin Huangyi, please have some tea. This is the best spring tea."
Before Lin Zhi could reply, Ouyang Yao continued: "It's not respectful to trouble Lin Huangyi this time. It's a trivial matter."
After speaking, Ouyang Yao waved to the paperwork behind him.
After hearing this, the young clerk walked steadily to Lin Zhi, quickly took out a check from his pocket, bent down with a very respectful gesture, and handed the check over with both hands.
Lin Zhi was quite surprised and stood up quickly. He originally wanted to wave and refuse, but at the same time, he subconsciously glanced at the number on the check, and his whole body froze.
On the check was an impressive 1,250 gold dollars.
That's right, 1,250 gold yuan, such a big number, how could Lin Zhi not be surprised?
"This, this. Ouyang Xingsheng is such a great gift, which makes Lin feel ashamed!" Lin Zhi said in a somewhat hasty tone.
"Huh?" Ouyang Yao shook his head:
"Lin Huangyi, please stay out of sight. You protected the dog for his smooth promotion. The Ouyang family should thank you for this support. Don't refuse."
The Ouyang family is really rich! Lin Zhi suddenly said something like this in his mind.
That’s right! So rich!
When I am usually in the sky city of Ouranos, the people I interact with are almost all contractors, and there is no chance of making money.
Normally, source stones and contract items are distributed by teachers. Where have you seen such wealth?
With this money, how many Origin Stones can I buy privately?
Yes, there are many underground transactions in Ironborn society! Although Source Stone is for sale at Pandora headquarters, you must have a suitable reason to apply to be eligible to purchase it.
This requires the merits of the Judgment Council!
For a moment, Lin Zhi's salivary glands secreted crazily, and he swallowed subconsciously.
This chapter has been completed!
