Yin Ling leaned on the sofa, thinking about something on her mind.
Lin Ran's condition has been declining these days, and he no longer has the vitality he had before.
What is certain now is that Lin Ran was obviously deliberately suppressed by the Hupo Research Institute.
Even though she wanted to help Lin Ran get back on his feet, she was unable to do anything.
After all, the Hupo Research Institute is a higher-level authority. Even if she has a say in the Supreme Council, she cannot compete with the power of the Hupo Research Institute.
Most importantly, she won't do it.
Provoking the Hupo Research Institute without permission would put her and her clan members at risk of being exposed.
She felt very sorry for Lin Ran's current situation, but racial justice always took precedence over personal feelings, and she would not do anything stupid for Lin Ran's sake.
The best option at this time is to do nothing.
But as she watched Lin Ran become increasingly depressed these days, even becoming anti-human, a bold idea came to her mind.
Why can't a talented person like Lin Ran join our Silver Moon Clan?
As long as Lin Ran joins the Silver Moon Clan, their relationship can take a further step...
She believed that with Lin Ran's talent, as long as he showed his achievements to the clan, he would definitely receive preferential treatment within the clan.
During this period, she can vouch for Lin Ran to the tribe.
After this idea took root in Yin Ling's heart, it began to grow uncontrollably.
But she didn't dare to tell Lin Ran her thoughts rashly, because doing so was very risky.
For the sake of safety, she had conducted many tests on Lin Ran these days, trying to pry into Lin Ran's innermost thoughts.
Facts have proved that Lin Ran is full of negative emotions now.
Under the overwhelming pressure of public opinion and online violence, Lin Ran's anti-human side gradually emerged, and he even had the tendency to commit suicide under the pressure.
At this time, Lin Ran was full of flaws in her eyes, and she only needed to provide an opportunity to win Lin Ran over to the side of the Silver Moon Clan.
Now that she had determined that the idea of wooing Lin Ran was feasible, Yin Ling began to think about the right time to reveal her thoughts to Lin Ran.
But before that, she had one more thing to do.
Now that he has decided to win over Lin Ran, there is no need to continue the assassination operation.
Thinking of this, she immediately picked up the mobile phone beside her and dialed a series of numbers.
After waiting for a moment, the phone was connected, and a hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone:
"What's the matter?"
"Your operational efficiency is really poor. The mission of assassinating Lin Ran can be canceled and the subsequent rewards will not be paid."
"If you cancel unilaterally, the deposit will not be refunded." The other end of the phone said calmly.
"Whatever." After the words fell, Yin Ling hung up the phone.
…
ten minutes later.
Hupo Research Institute, training room.
Feng Qi received a call from Heilong.
When Heilong heard that Yinling had canceled the mission to assassinate Lin Ran, he knew that the plan had taken another step forward.
Now that Yin Ling has canceled the assassination mission, it proves that she is going to win over Lin Ran.
Next, Gu Ke can also speed up the pace of the third step of the script.
Thinking of this, he picked up the mobile phone placed on the desk and dialed Gu Ke's number and explained his thoughts.
After hanging up the phone, Feng Qi looked at the sunny scenery outside the window with a smile on his face.
"keep it up."
After some emotion, he looked down at the field study textbook filled with notes and continued to study hard.
…
Half an hour later.
Energy Research Institute.
Just now, Yin Ling called Lin Ran and made an appointment to meet in the evening.
She decided to confess everything to Lin Ran tonight and win over Lin Ran to join the Silver Moon Clan.
"Since humans don't cherish him, I cherish him."
Thinking that this friendship that was supposed to end might be continued, and that Lin Ran would become a member of the Silver Moon clan in the future, a charming smile suddenly appeared on her face.
She immediately thought of a question, and her expression suddenly changed.
What if Lin Ran doesn't want to?
The early testing can prove that Lin Ran can be won over, but what if when the time comes to win over, Lin Ran is unwilling?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
If this happened, it seemed that there was only one choice before her, and that was to kill Lin Ran with her own hands.
Even if there will be a series of troubles next.
But Lin Ran's survival will become a major hidden danger to the future of the Silver Moon Clan.
Only the dead can keep secrets.
After thinking for a long time, Yin Ling stood up and came to the desk, picked up the documents placed on it and started to look through them.
An hour later, she put down the file and woke up the computer screen.
After clicking on the mailbox, a special email marked in red was lying on the first line of the homepage of the mailbox.
[Star City Supreme Council (Certification Official-Star Standard): Notice on Energy Safety Inspection of the Energy Research Institute]:
content:
It was initiated by the Hupo Research Institute and voted by the Star City Supreme Meeting.
The notice is as follows:

The inspection items are as follows: Star City Energy line safety inspection, inventory resource inventory of each energy agency, staff safety awareness assessment... (28 items in total)
This inspection operation will focus on Star City’s energy safety.
The heads of each energy agency who need to receive the email will fully cooperate with this inspection. In the follow-up, inspection team members will contact the heads of each energy agency to explain the detailed inspection process...
Sender: Star City Supreme Council (Certified Official-Star)
…
After reading the content of the email, Yin Ling couldn't help but frown slightly.
Hupo Research Institute launches "Energy Safety Inspection Action"
Under normal circumstances, energy security hazard investigation operations are carried out approximately once every quarter.
Inspection teams were formed by personnel dispatched from various power agencies of the Star City Supreme Council, and various energy agencies cooperated to carry out inspection operations.
The main purpose is to supervise the work of various energy research institutes, ensure the energy supply of Star City, and eliminate potential hidden dangers.
Yinling is very familiar with the inspection process.
But what puzzled her was that it had only been about two months since the last inspection, so why did the new round of inspections start so soon.
It is not uncommon for the Supreme Council of Star City to improvise and launch a surprise inspection.
But this inspection was initiated by the Hupo Research Institute, which made her suspicious.
Before she met Lin Ran, she might not have thought there was anything wrong with this email.
But combined with Lin Ran's successive suppression by the Hupo Research Institute some time ago, her heart suddenly tightened, and she couldn't help but suspect that the Hupo Research Institute had a hidden purpose in doing so.
Could it be that I was exposed?
This idea startled Yin Ling.
She thinks that the layout plan is almost perfect and has no flaws to the outside world.
However, there are indeed many unexplainable and unreasonable points in Hu Po Research Institute's sudden abnormal behavior. Maybe the inspection was fake, but in fact it was a test of her.
Jade fingers gently touched her temples, and she felt that she had to take this possible problem into consideration.
Even if the possibility of this hidden danger problem is very low, there is a high probability that she is overthinking it, but she has to take precautions.
Thinking of this, Yin Ling turned to look at the silver-haired young man sitting not far away, holding a jade flute, and said in a deep voice:
"Call all the clan members, I have something important to tell you."
"Okay!" The silver-haired boy nodded immediately, and then disappeared.
…
late at night.
Starlight Lakeside Park.
It was drizzling in the sky, and occasionally there were a few rolling thunders in the distance.
Lin Ran and Yin Ling were sitting on the stone bench in the park pavilion, playing a fierce chess game under the dim light of the street lights.
At this time, the golden chessboard outlined by aura was filled with elemental chess pieces.
After a brief silence, Yin Ling waved his hand and condensed a silver elemental chess piece, which landed on the killing position. Suddenly the elemental chessboard shook, and the chess pieces of various colors began to move and collide, or cancel each other out. The chessboard seemed to come alive, like thousands of troops fighting against each other.
The battlefield of the rush.
In less than a moment, only Yin Ling's chess pieces were left on the chessboard, and Lin Ran's chess pieces were all defeated.
After the game ended, Yin Ling looked up at Lin Ran, who looked haggard, and suddenly said:
"Caigou, do you hate the unwarranted suppression from the Hupo Research Institute?"
Facing Yin Ling's inquiry, Lin Ran shook his head.
"Do you still have to fake your emotions in front of me?"
After hearing these words, Lin Ran couldn't help but sigh after being silent for a while, then gritted his teeth and said:
"How can I not hate it? You and I both know whether there is a problem with my research and development. For this reason, I went to the Hupo Research Institute to seek justice, but they kicked me out like a dog... It is my dream to develop magic. They undoubtedly
It's killing my future."
Looking at Lin Ran with hatred in his eyes, Yin Ling felt that the time had come.
At this time, she said solemnly:
"A Ran, if I can provide you with a platform to showcase your talents, are you willing to come with me?"
When Lin Ran heard this, he immediately shook his head and smiled bitterly:
"I have never studied spiritual materials. I don't know anything about your stuff, so forget it."
"I'm not referring to the Energy Research Institute, but to other places, a platform that is more suitable for your growth and development. It is far from comparable to the Hupo Research Institute. There is advanced cultivation knowledge there that you can't imagine..."
Lin Ran raised his head in surprise:
"Are you kidding me? Why didn't I know there was such a place? Could it be a mysterious organization that is not open to the public... No, since it has stored a lot of cultivation knowledge, how could it not be released to the public?"
Looking at Lin Ran with a surprised expression, Yin Ling took a deep breath, then looked directly into Lin Ran's eyes and said solemnly:
"I'm not referring to the human side."
For a moment, Lin Ran's eyes showed confusion, then turned into shock, then anger, and finally his eyes turned cold.
"What's the meaning?"
"You must have understood the literal meaning."
"Are you loyal to the domain forces?"
"I have never been loyal, that's what I am."
As the words fell, Yin Ling's original black hair gradually turned into silver white, the shape of her ears also changed, and the holy aura on her body gradually increased.
Looking at Yin Ling who had transformed back into the appearance of a member of the Yin Yue clan, Lin Ran looked shocked and stood up warily and took a step back.
"A Ran, I sincerely invite you to join the Silver Moon Clan. I guarantee that your talents will be reused in our clan and our friendship will continue."
Looking at Lin Ran with a vigilant expression, Yin Ling was not surprised.
Lin Ran's behavior seemed to her to be normal.
"Aran, think carefully about what you have experienced these days, and then think about the comments on the Internet and the eyes of passers-by when they look at you... They don't value your talent, but I do. I sincerely invite you to join us again."
Looking at Yin Ling with a sincere expression, Lin Ran returned to the stone bench after a brief silence, looked directly at Yin Ling and said:
"So you had a purpose in contacting me from the beginning, right?"
"I assure you, I didn't know much about you before I came into contact with you, and I had no intention of recruiting you. I didn't deliberately disguise myself when we got along, and my feelings for you were never mixed with any interest."
After hearing Yin Ling's sincere assurance, Lin Ran looked complicated.
Thaksin believed what he said. In essence, his question was a slap in the face.
He was the one who had a clear purpose and deliberately came into contact with Silver Bell.
The complex emotions at this time are not only disguises, but also the true reflection of inner thoughts.
Facing the silent Lin Ran, Yin Ling chose to continue persuading.
During this period, Lin Ran's expression was very hesitant, as if he was struggling internally as to whether he should make a choice.
At this time, Yin Ling was extremely nervous inside.
She longed for Lin Ran to make the "right" choice and become a member of the Silver Moon Clan.
There is no doubt about Lin Ran's talent. If he can join the Silver Moon Clan, it will definitely help the development of the Silver Moon Clan.
More importantly, she hopes this relationship can last.
She didn't want to face the worst ending and killed Lin Ran with her own hands.
During the conversation, she tried to arouse the negative emotions buried deep in Lin Ran's heart and arouse his anti-human thoughts.
In addition, Yin Ling began to describe the cultivation knowledge of the Silver Moon Clan, which is the knowledge accumulated by generations of Silver Moon Clan people, and is a level that human cultivation science cannot reach.
She felt that this knowledge was full of temptations for Lin Ran.
Under Yin Ling's persuasion, Lin Ran seemed to be struggling extremely.
I wanted to nod and agree several times, but in the end I gritted my teeth and couldn't make up my mind.
Time passes bit by bit.
Two hours later, the early morning bell echoed over Star City.
Under Yin Ling's expectant expression, Lin Ran finally failed to survive the struggle and suddenly sighed and nodded:
"Okay, I promise you."
After hard persuasion, the ideal result finally came. A charming smile suddenly appeared on Yin Ling's face. She raised her slender arm and gently stroked Lin Ran's forehead.
Suddenly, a silver-white mark appeared on Lin Ran's forehead, which appeared briefly and then quickly disappeared.
"A Ran, on behalf of the Silver Moon Clan, I welcome you to join us. From now on, you will be my family."
"Son-in-law?" Lin Ran complained with a distressed expression.
"Since you are willing to join the Silver Moon Clan, maybe we will have further development." Yin Ling nodded carelessly.
"Is cross-species communication possible?"
Yin Ling:……
"Essentially, we are all life forms in human form... It should be no problem."
Looking at Yin Ling who looked slightly embarrassed, Lin Ran grinned and said:
"Forget it, let's not discuss this issue. Now I need to adjust my emotions. I may not be able to assume a new identity in a short time."
"Understood, this does take some time to get used to." Yin Ling nodded immediately.
"That's it, today's chess game is over, and we'll contact you tomorrow."
Lin Ran stood up at this moment, walked into the drizzle, and waved his hand without looking back.
Looking at Lin Ran leaving, a smile appeared on Yin Ling's face again.
At this time, the air around Yin Ling fluctuated, and the figure of a silver-haired boy holding a jade flute appeared.
He looked depressed and said:
"Sister, I remember you told me that we must not have too much contact with humans. The relationship established with humans will only become a stumbling block for our future plans... So, what's the matter with you?"
Turning around and glaring at the silver-haired boy, Yin Ling said in a solemn tone:
"Can we be the same? I have recruited a genius with unlimited potential for our clan, which will help our clan's future development."
"I think Xiao Huang can also be very talented..."
Seeing his sister's increasingly cold eyes, the silver-haired boy was halfway through his words and suddenly didn't dare to say any more.
His parents have always doted on him, but he is only afraid of his sister, who has always been strong.
Just as the silver-haired boy was about to leave, Yin Ling suddenly said:
"You go and monitor Lin Ran. If Lin Ran does anything rashly during this period...for example, if he wants to report my identity information, you know what to do."
"Sister, I understand." The silver-haired boy nodded immediately, and his figure disappeared in place with ripples.
Yin Ling also stood up at this time.
Looking through the drizzle in the direction where Lin Ran left, she couldn't help but murmur to herself:
