"Hello, my name is Ouyang, and I am now in charge of the Qianyan Army."
Ouyang looked at Xiao Ke's somewhat reserved look, so he didn't pretend to be dignified.
He said with a gentle expression to the child standing in the military tent.
"I have basically discussed your matter with Yan Fei. Do you really want to be a Qianyan Army?"
"Yes, yes!" Xiao Ke nodded hurriedly, looking really eager from the look on his face.
Ouyang was noncommittal and continued to ask without changing his expression.
"Can you tell me why?"
"Because I can eat enough!" Xiao Ke said matter-of-factly.
However, he seemed to think that this reason was a bit unusual, so he rubbed his head and smiled sheepishly.
"Hey, when I went to the mines, I couldn't choose what to eat. I had to eat whatever I was given.
I have a huge appetite, so I'm always hungry.
But since I came to Qianyan Army, I have always had enough to eat, so I want to be Qianyan Army!"
Ouyang looked at the other party's demeanor and did not continue to ask.
He decided to be direct.
"Xiao Ke, it's like this. The Qianyan Army is reforming, and soldiers like you who are recruited must undergo cultural education, which is what you learned in school."
While talking, seeing that Xiao Ke was a little confused, Ouyang also explained.
But Xiao Ke was obviously a little emotionally entangled. He asked weakly: "Sir, can't you just not study?"
"No, as a soldier who can't read, how can you understand the tasks assigned to you by your superiors?"
"But...but...wuwuwu...I can't learn..."
A sixteen-year-old child cried out in frustration in the military tent.
Ouyang had a headache. Military orders were military orders, and they couldn't be changed for the sake of a child.
Yan Fei on the side quietly poked Ouyang's arm and said in his ear.
"Boss, Xiao Ke is not very good at other things, but Qian Yanjun's spiritual skills are progressing very quickly, so he might be a good seer.
Do you want to think of a way? Otherwise, I won’t bring you a headache."
Yan Fei rolled his eyes speechlessly, the army must remain pure.
This kind of back door approach to relationships cannot be opened casually.
He picked up the information on the table and took a look at it, thought about it, and said this.
"Xiao Ke, I can give you one last chance now."
Upon hearing what Ouyang said, Xiao Ke stopped crying instantly and asked with sobs: "What, what chance?"
"A new group of soldiers will be selected as instructors soon. They also need to learn to read and write. You can train with them then.
But let me say it first, if you fail to pass the cultural knowledge course in the end, I will not allow you to continue to join the Qianyan Army."
After saying this, Xiao Ke said hello. He still doesn't understand what an instructor is. What does this have to do with joining the Qianyan Army?
Yan Fei looked at the confused Xiao Ke and said angrily: "Why don't you thank me quickly! This is your last chance to join the Qianyan Army!"
"Thank you, Mr. Ouyang!"
"Okay, whether you can become a soldier or not depends on you. You go outside and wait for a while, then go back with Yan Fei. Someone will pick you up in a few days."
"Okay, okay! Thank you, Mr. Ouyang!"
Xiao Ke didn't even wipe the tears on his face, he just ran out happily with a grin on his face.
Ouyang rummaged around on the desk and took out a document and handed it to Yan Fei.
"Well, follow up on this matter and see what the outcome is."
What Ouyang told her was about Feiyunpo's water shortage, not asking her to follow up on the progress of the matter.
According to the information sent by Gan Yu today, Mr. De'an, whose daughter jumped into the well, had some conflicts with Qian Yanjun.
Qian Yanjun wanted to confirm the identity of the deceased, but Duke De'an blocked the investigation and bluntly stated that the deceased was his daughter.
Now that the mourning hall has been set up, Qianyan Army should not be too aggressive, but it is not a problem if things are unclear.
So now I'm stuck.
It was impossible for Ouyang to go there personally for this matter, so he arranged for Yan Fei to follow up.
"What is this?" Yan Fei took the document in confusion and said while flipping through it.
"I'm so busy with school stuff, why do you give me new tasks?"
"If you really feel busy, then you can recruit some helpers to help you."
"Do you think I don't have one? I wrote to Mondstadt's friends before, but unfortunately they didn't want to come to Liyue."
Let me go, do you still have friends in Mondstadt?
When Ouyang heard this, he asked strangely: "Who is it? Why did you find someone to find Mondstadt?"
"Yora from Mondstadt, she is from the Lawrence family. When we corresponded, I knew that she was not doing well there, so I wanted her to come to Liyue to help me, but unfortunately she was unwilling."
Mom, does my little lawyer have such a wide network of contacts?
Ouyang looked at Yan Fei in surprise, seeing that there was some regret in her expression as she spoke.
"How do you know the Mondstadt people? Aren't you always in Liyue Port?"
"I do go out occasionally. I met her once in Mondstadt Snow Mountain. If it hadn't been for her appearance that time, I might not have been able to come back."
Yan Fei looked at the documents and the two of them chatted.
But when she noticed a familiar name in the file, she felt a little strange.
"Boss, Ye Lan investigated this matter before?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
Seeing Ouyang's confused look, Yan Fei became even more confused.
"That's not right. Since she took over the investigation, there should be results soon, right?"
"Are you also familiar with Ye Lan?"
"Well, yes. I have met her several times in Liyue Port in some difficult cases. It can be said that in every difficult case, she can find out some useful information and help.
I’m quite busy!”
Is this a lawyer? Does he look like he has a lot of connections?!
Hearing what Yan Fei said, Ouyang asked again: "Then how much do you know about Ye Lan?"
"This... I can't tell you. She helped me a lot before, so I invited her to dinner.
But in the process of contact, I always feel that my thoughts will be easily noticed by the other party.
So after learning this, I rarely interacted with her."
Ouyang was thoughtful, but did not continue the topic. Seeing that Yan Fei had already read the information, he ordered.
"Gong De'an lost his daughter, so Qianyan Army should not be too tough. However, Feiyunpo's water source being polluted is not a trivial matter. You go and let Qianyan Army investigate the matter clearly."
"Okay~"
Yan Fei stood up and left holding the information.
When passing by Ruo Tuo, from an angle that Ouyang couldn't see, he stuck out his tongue at Ruo Tuo who was squatting on the ground.
Slightly, slightly...
Then he left as if nothing had happened.
A series of actions made Ruo Tuo look puzzled.
He looked at Yan Fei who was walking away, and then turned to look at Ouyang who was starting to work again. A very humane look of confusion appeared on the cat's face.
