Although Mr. Zhan was shocked and confused, he did not suspect that there was something wrong with the identity of Master Liu in front of him.
His mind was running rapidly, recalling his words and deeds after meeting Lao Liu. Although he made a bad face and said a few unpleasant words, as Lao Liu's boss, Mr. Zhan knew his own size very well.
, it should not anger Lao Liu.
After all, it was indeed Lao Liu who messed up this matter. Say a few words to him and show off your face. Isn't that a normal reaction?
With Lao Liu's usual urinary temperament, even if he couldn't listen, he would definitely go against it, and he wouldn't turn against him like he is now.
Especially when Lao Liu took out the poison in his mouth, this action was extraordinary. This was to prevent him from committing suicide by taking poison.
Reconnecting with what Lao Liu asked, Mr. Zhan figured it out in a flash.
Lao Liu is trying to force a confession!
Taking out the poison from his mouth is to prevent him from committing suicide to fight, to prevent him from seeking life or death?
Mr. Zhan's expression changed.
"Lao Liu, don't be confused. Although you are a little wrong in this matter, it won't do anything to you. But if you do it again, it will be difficult to recover."
Mr. Zhan obviously also wanted to resolve the idea of "Master Liu".
"Mr. Zhan, you misunderstood. I don't want to redeem you at all." Jiang Yue smiled leisurely.
"You..." Mr. Zhan stared at Jiang Yue with astonishment on his face. After a long time, he sighed and said in frustration, "Old Liu, can I ask why?"
"Why? Why should Mr. Zhan pretend to be confused?"
Jiang Yue pretended to be serious and responded to the other party's questions with questions. In the final analysis, he still wanted to extract some useful information from Mr. Zhan.
Mr. Zhan frowned: "You don't have a grudge against me for being too harsh on you, do you?"
Jiang Yue smiled: "Do you think that's all?"
"Sigh, I know that the bosses used some shameful tactics against you, but it's not just against you, it's the same for me. Lao Liu, don't you think that you alone can fight against the entire organization?
..." Mr. Zhan sighed.
"Hmph! I have this ability, so why should I be manipulated by you? Why should I pretend to be a grandson in front of you? Why should I sacrifice my freedom and dignity?"
Mr. Zhan sighed again: "What you said is all reasonable. However, you should also know very well that in today's world, individuals cannot succeed alone. If you knew how much energy there is behind our organization,
I’m afraid you won’t have these confused thoughts anymore.”
"How much energy? Is it possible to go against the grain?" Jiang Yue pretended to be disdainful.
"Let's put it this way, our organization is not only active in the Central and South Region, but also has power in many regions throughout the chapter. What you see in Star City is just the tip of the iceberg. Even I can only be considered as one in Star City.
It’s just upper-middle class.”
"So what?"
"Alas, Lao Liu, you still don't understand what I mean. With your strength, if you perform outstandingly in this Yinyuan Apartment incident, the superiors originally planned to give you a formal status, recruit you into the inner circle, and award you with an internal medal.
.At that time, you will be your own person and can participate in many internal decisions and understand a lot of internal information."
"Is it just like you? I don't think there's anything good about it. When you meet a higher-level person, do you have to pretend to be a grandson and nod and bow down?"
Of course Mr. Zhan heard the irony, but at this juncture, self-esteem obviously didn't matter.
"Lao Liu, you are different from me. You are a strange person with special talents. If you enter the inner circle, your room for advancement is greater than mine. Moreover, the resources you enjoy are different from mine."
"How different can it be?"
"It's so different. People like me who don't have special talents have basically reached the top when they reach this position. No matter how beautiful they are, they are nothing more than the glory, wealth, money and beauties that the eyes can see. You are different. Entering the inner circle
, after you go up the level, you can enjoy other resources."
"What resources?"
"You often go to the black market for transactions. You should know what is circulating in the black market, right?"
"Spiritual creature?"
"Yes, Lao Liu, you are a person in this way, so you should know how rare spiritual resources are, right?" Mr. Zhan said hurriedly.
"There is no free lunch in the world. To enjoy your resources, I have to work hard for you. How can I not work and just enjoy the resources?"
Mr. Zhan's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he hesitated.
"What? Didn't I say that? Let's have a heart-to-heart chat. It seems that Mr. Zhan still has concerns." Jiang Yue said with a strange smile.
As Jiang Yue spoke, he gently scraped the surface of his fingers with the fruit knife in his hand, and then placed it on Mr. Zhan's cheek for comparison.
The cold metal touched Mr. Zhan's cheek, which made Mr. Zhan's anus tighten and his hairs stood up uncontrollably.
"Old Liu, if you have something to say, you have something to say."
"Then just say it nicely." Jiang Yue slowly took back the knife.
"That's all, Lao Liu, you don't have an official status yet, so there are some things I can't tell you. But since we've come to this point, I'll make an exception and take a risk to talk to you."
"Our organization has a strict structure, and every time we recruit an internal employee, we are very cautious. So you see that we have a lot of people, but in fact, not many people actually have internal status."
"So, after I have worked for you for so long, I am still just an outsider in the end, right?" Jiang Yue said with a straight face, pretending to be annoyed.
"Lao Liu, don't complain. Our internal assessment of a person requires a process. Especially for strangers like you, strict assessment is required. But once you pass, the treatment will be completely different. It depends on your strength and ability.
, once it passes the review, it will be directly three-star, the same as mine. This is just a conservative estimate. In a year or two, it may be four-star, or even five-star!"
"And for each level, the benefits you enjoy are different. If you are a three-star and a person with special abilities, you can receive a spiritual item for free every month even if you do nothing, which is equivalent to a guaranteed treatment.
.The higher the level, the higher the guaranteed benefits.”
"As for the treatment other than spiritual things, you can enjoy it as well. Needless to say money, of course, and women. You can enjoy all of them, including some internal benefits."
"Besides, except when you have a mission, you are basically free to act as an individual. If you want to make extra money and do some benefits, as long as it doesn't affect the overall situation, the superiors will generally not interfere."
"The most important thing is that when the strange era comes, there is a powerful force behind it. The protection in all aspects is definitely far better than if you fight alone. You can enjoy the safest house and the highest quality food. Lao Liu,
Don’t underestimate these things. Maybe in a few years, a piece of clean bread and a mouthful of clean water without pollution will be luxury resources.”
Mr. Zhan’s desire to survive was really strong and he talked a lot in one go.
The amount of information was so large that Jiang Yue couldn't digest it for a while.
As he said, in a few years, a piece of bread and a mouthful of water may become luxury resources. Jiang Yue has actually seriously considered this issue.
If the entire planet Gaia mutates and various weird species continue to appear, crowding out human living space, the impact on human production and life will definitely be huge.
If the normal industrial and agricultural production chain is destroyed, it may not be impossible for mankind to return to the era of primitive slash-and-burn farming.
By that time, many things that now seem like daily consumption may really become luxury goods.
Of course, this may not necessarily happen.
Jiang Yue was more curious about the composition of the forces behind the other party. From what Mr. Zhan said, the forces behind him should have existed for a long time.
It definitely didn’t come out in a weird era.
There are forces entrenched in various regions across the country, and Star City may be just one of them.
Just imagine, apart from the official Dazhang Kingdom, there is such a terrifying force hiding in the dark. If you think about it carefully, it is really scary.
It's like there is a tiger lurking beside the bed.
"Mr. Zhan, your status is a three-star treatment. You can't control your life or death. I'm curious, how many levels do we have? What level do we have to reach before we can truly live like ourselves? No longer subject to so many constraints.
?”
"Lao Liu, you are too confused. Do you think you are living an inhumane life now? Do you think I am living an inhumane life by taking advantage of someone?"
"Can you just give me a nice word? At what level can I achieve success?"
Mr. Zhan sighed: "It's not that I don't give you good words. Frankly speaking, I can't explain clearly. When I reach three stars, it's basically the end. It's very difficult to go up again. In the entire Star City, I can touch the highest one, which is
Five stars.”
"How many stars is the highest in Star City? How many stars are there in total?"
"Old Liu, you are making things difficult for me. I made it very clear, the highest one I can access is five stars. I don't know if Star City is the highest. How many stars are the highest in Star City, and how many stars are the highest in the entire Dazhang Kingdom?
This is a secret that I have no access to. Maybe in a few years you will be able to decrypt it if you reach five stars."
Jiang Yue has always been using his mind-peeping skills, but Mr. Zhan's words have no merit at all.
It seems like this guy really hasn't reached the highest level yet.
I thought I was facing a king this time, but I didn't expect that it was still just a bronze.
Jiang Yue suddenly remembered something and asked: "Mr. Zhan, that old Liu suddenly awakened and the bullet couldn't hit him. Isn't such a terrible awakening a huge threat to the organization?"
Before Jiang Yue talked about the bullet being unable to hit, Mr. Zhan once said something that caught Jiang Yue's attention.
He once said that our organization has never encountered people who are not afraid of bullets.
These words reminded Jiang Yue of the time when he was attacked on his way back from buying a car.
He has always suspected that the attack was related to the forces lurking in Star City. Mr. Zhan's words undoubtedly confirmed his suspicion.
That's why he asked this tentative question.
"It doesn't matter if the bullet misses. This is the inevitable result of the strange era. In the future, there will definitely be more and more awakened people who are not afraid of bullets, but so what? Can large-caliber bullets be withstood? Can armor-piercing bullets be withstood?
Can an RPG handle it? Not to mention that there are more heavy weapons. There is no one in this world who cannot be killed. Even a superman with steel and iron bones may be able to die unconsciously with a small virus. Old
Liu, you should know better than me in this regard."
"Huh, I'm a warlock, not a biochemistry expert."
"As long as it can kill people, it is the best killing technique, no matter what field or status."
"So, there was an attack on the Awakened people a while ago that resulted in heavy casualties. Were they the same people who were not afraid of bullets?"
Mr. Zhan was startled and asked: "How do you know this?"
Seeing his reaction, Jiang Yue immediately knew that Master Liu and this guy had never communicated about this matter.
However, he reacted very quickly and said with a sneer: "This matter has made a big fuss. I also have ears, okay? I heard that the daughter of the ruler of Star City was involved in it."
"That mistake had a huge impact on our operations."
"Didn't a few people die?"
"It's a small matter that a few people died, but the key is that there are still survivors, and something has been exposed. So that the organization had to cut off its arms and ban a few points. But even so, it still aroused the vigilance of Star City's senior officials. So much so that our current activities,
We need to be more careful and careful in our layout. Try not to make any mistakes so as not to alert others."
When Mr. Zhan said this, he suddenly paused.
He suddenly realized that he seemed to have talked too much today.
Even for the sake of survival and persuading Lao Liu, some words that shouldn't have been said were still blocked.
"Lao Liu, you usually don't care about these things at all, why are you so curious today?" After Mr. Zhan calmed down, he felt something was wrong.
Based on his usual understanding of Lao Liu, he wouldn't care about these things at all.
As a warlock with special abilities, Lao Liu has always been extremely confident in his own methods and looks down on those awakened ones who have no physical strength. He has always felt that the methods of warlocks are the best and they can manipulate people.
With the palm of your hand, you can kill people invisible.
Killing people with fists, legs, and weapons is not a big deal, everyone can do it.
Why do you think so highly of the Awakened right now? His tone sounds quite fearful. This is not like the usual Lao Liu who has his eyes higher than his head.
"Normally I don't care because you are tight-lipped. Now you are more curious because you fell into my hands and you had to speak." Jiang Yue said with a smile.
Mr. Zhan's face was quite ugly and he wanted to get angry, but he suppressed it.
He advised earnestly: "Old Liu, I have said everything that needs to be said, and our joke is almost over. If we delay any longer, my followers will come back. If they see us like this, the situation will be very embarrassing.
It will inevitably cause unnecessary conflicts. If you let me loose now, we will treat it as a harmless joke. From now on, we will still work for the superiors with one heart. To be honest, there is no personal grudge between us, and there is no need to break up.
Right?"
"Last question, what is our organization called?"
When Mr. Zhan heard this, the muscles on his face twitched, and his eyes stared at Jiang Yue in surprise, as if he was seeing a stranger.
