The messy scene in the living room has been cleaned up by the smart butler, but REE is unwilling to return to the live broadcast camera. Even if the live broadcast platform fights with him about the contract and asks him for liquidated damages, he still admits it.
Just when he made up his mind, a communication wave penetrated the wind and rain and came in. The person contacting him was Yuan Fei, a young man whom his teacher Gong Qi had been cultivating in recent years. This man is very flexible and can speak and do things well.
It's reliable, but REE doesn't like him. There's no reason. At most, it's just that he's someone of the same sex.
In the past few years, Yuan Fei had everything going smoothly under the guidance of Gong Qi, the deputy secretary-general. That is to say, the last time he went back to Xiacheng, something went wrong and he came back in despair.
REE was happy about this for a few minutes. Now thinking about it, maybe it would be more balanced to add a chicken drumstick to Ronan before blackening him?
It was okay not to think about Ronan, but he was in a bad mood when he thought about that person. For a moment, REE wanted to refuse the call because he was doing a live broadcast. But considering that his every move now can be said to be the center of attention, he temporarily left the meeting.
The situation could not be concealed from others, so I could only communicate with him with a toothache expression and a lukewarm "hello".
"Senior Brother Lin, I just wanted to contact you, and I was concerned that you were live broadcasting..."
REE's tooth hurts even more. Why are you staring at me so hard? To snitch on me in the future? And with such a hypocritical respectful address, who knows what the person on the other side looks like?
In any case, it is unlikely that Yuan Fei would start a video chat with REE to verify the degree of respect behind the title. The same is certainly true for REE. The two of them communicated in a false manner using the traditional communication mode.
"Senior Brother Lin, the General Assembly just held a joint meeting. The president, vice-presidents, and secretaries-general all participated. But the teacher is still absent..."
REE frowned. "Teacher, teacher," he called her affectionately, have you confirmed your relationship? You haven't even served tea, and you don't feel embarrassed talking about it?
Feeling unhappy, REE was not even in the mood to respond, and said coldly: "Teacher is in retreat, so of course he doesn't have time. Who is a powerful person at the extraordinary level who has learned the secrets in months? If you have a meeting, you have to go out to retreat, and in the end
What can be done?"
"But this involves the latest stance on Xia City. I heard that someone has proposed at the meeting to fully ease the relationship with Xia City and jointly develop something. Once it is formed, it will be difficult to change it. Teacher..."
REE also felt a little tight in the chest after hearing this. Photos of Jin Tong's headband are still going viral on the Internet. Can these people from the General Association stop trying to get money first? Even if you get money, you still have to spend it with your life, right?
?
Well, looking at it from another perspective, there will always be a bunch of old people who bury their necks in trouble and work so hard, probably because they want to prolong their "life with money to spend".
A groundbreaking practice theory does have the opportunity to do this.
I thought so, but if REE echoed Yuan Fei's remarks, he absolutely refused. He immediately showed off his senior brother style and reprimanded: "You haven't been working in the association for a day, and you still have a position.
What kind of gossip are you spreading? What does the association want to do, what does the teacher want to do, and do you still need to report it? You should learn more from the teacher, stay in seclusion for a few more days, and practice and gain enlightenment is the right thing!"
It feels so much better to have someone to vent your anger on.
No matter how scheming and powerful Yuan Fei was, he couldn't get over it for a while when REE pushed him back so hard. He replied harshly, "Brother, I'm busy with the live broadcast, so I won't bother you." and hung up the phone.
Now, the relationship between the two parties is likely to be stalemate for a while. REE doesn't care much anymore. He relies on his family. In terms of starting point, achievements, and heritage, including the relationship with his teacher Gong Qi, their common interests will overwhelm Yuan.
No, the opponent has a slight age advantage and still has some unrealized "potential". If you really fight against him, it's nothing!
But anyway, some people have some words that only confuse people's minds. After being reminded by Yuan Feiyi, REE's thinking also changed a little.
He vaguely knew the reason why his teacher wanted to "retreat". Some time ago, he was ordered to hire professionals to search for the real body of Snake Language's flesh fetus. It seemed that the teacher had done something to Snake Language's missing soul body.
This trick can bring back the face lost in Xia City.
However, Snake Yu was cunning, wise, and cautious, and he hid his true flesh body very tightly. His mission was not completed, and he was originally worried about being criticized, but unexpectedly nothing happened next.
Gong Qi seemed to have really gone into seclusion. There was no reply for months and months. He had also reached the point of inescaping. Only the nutrition cabin responsible for life support was still running.
REE is actually a little worried. After all, Gong Qi made the retreat that was supposed to be a cover up real, and the important things involving his face and vital interests into a fictitious one, which was quite inconsistent with his past well-planned and harsh character.
, it felt like something unexpected had happened.
So at the beginning, when it came to the Dripping Sword and Watering Can Man, REE refused to let it go, and even continued to expand its influence, also because he wanted to explore the situation in Xia City.
The whole world knows about his relationship with Gong Qi. If the teacher suffers a big loss there, the response from the other party, especially the response from someone like Gao Tianshi, will probably bring out some clues.
The problem is that from the beginning to now, Xia Cheng's reaction has been in line with the norm. Everyone is tearing each other apart, talking to each other, greeting their parents and relatives, and also caring about some bottom lines, so as not to really cause big trouble on the level of extraordinary species.
Everything is too normal. In addition, Gong Qi's almost invincible extraordinary appearance in the past one or two decades has brought too much safety inertia, so that REE gradually forgot his original intention and fell deeply into his last trap.
In my career as a gossip and troll, until now.
People's thoughts are always in series, and the previously forgotten links were only temporarily buried in the dust of emotion. Now Ronan is shocking the world with his talents and magnificent theories; he has taken out photos of golden tung headbands and other stimulations.
Sexual information to show one's superiority; and to compete with the ghost eyes in the abyss area, calmly and with ease...
These circumstances that had never been thought of before were connected together, and suddenly the world, including REE himself, evaluated Ronan's status and ability. Some plots that had never been thought of before were blown away.
The thoughts, picked up one after another, are like an iron rope, coldly lying in front of it, reminding REE of its existence.
"NND, did the teacher really get hit by a tripping horse rope?"
REE still didn't think about the worst case scenario, after all, the data of the life support system would not lie. But as long as he went through Gong Qi's helpless and miserable look in his mind, he would inevitably tremble in his heart.
Well, he is overthinking it, right?
What if it’s not?
REE can't stand it any longer. If it's really a "tripping the rope" situation, how much loss Gong Qi will suffer is still second. The news is blocked due to "retreat", and then the consequences of hitting the wall again are the consequences.
Unbearable outside.
Gong Qi couldn't bear it, and he and his family couldn't bear it.
The more he thought about it, the less he felt. REE subconsciously reached out and touched the emergency communication device he carried with him. According to Gong Qi, if there are really urgent and important matters, he can wake him up from the special state through this communicator and obtain
connect.
It's not that REE had failed before, but they couldn't find a sufficient reason. Now that Jin Tong was killed, the cage theory came out, and even the Yuan District was unsafe... all of this came from that damn Ronan.
It’s time to say “urgent and important”.
REE finally stamped his feet and went to the study room with almost closed eyes. He said hello to the live broadcast platform and did not dare to read the comments on the Internet anymore. He turned off the live broadcast and rushed out of the room as if fleeing. He went straight out and started the car and headed towards Gong Qi.
Driving to the secret retreat location.
Emergency communications can of course be carried out over long distances, but some words and some matters are better communicated in person. This is a matter of attitude.
At this time in Tancheng, that is, at four or five o'clock in the morning, due to the passage of the hurricane, heavy rain poured down, and it could be said that it was hard to see the fingers. REE was not in the mood to play the night driving game, and directly entered the autonomous driving mode, with the car lights tearing up the darkness on the road.
Go at high speed along the magnetic track road.
But in this way, the last twenty minutes on the road were very difficult. Did he want to listen to boring news like "'Kuala' quickly upgraded to a Category 3 hurricane, and it is suspected that factors other than meteorological conditions were affected"?
Therefore, even though REE screamed "I don't want to watch" in her heart, she still turned on the audio and video system with her fingers honestly, connected to the live broadcast platform, and watched the latest live broadcast of the Xiacheng circular conference room.
Of course, all barrage and other comments will be blocked!
Then REE saw Ronan on the podium with his eyes half asleep and his eyelids trembling slightly. This scene was not much different from before, that is, he was more focused.
But it's weird. At the moment when REE's eyes were on the podium, Ronan over there also opened his eyes, and his eyes were focused on the camera, more like REE's eyes.
REE's heart thumped, and there was an inexplicable cold current. The blood pumped by the heart spurted out, soaking half of his chest with coldness, and there was also a tingling sensation from being rubbed by coarse sand.
What's going on? Has he become so afraid of Ronan?
The car speeding in the wind and rain was not affected by REE's mood and continued to drive strictly according to the set route. The smart butler judged according to the preset priority and played the information that is most worthy of the owner's attention at present.
It just so happens that there is news about Hurricane Kuala. The relevant situation is further updated: "'Kuala' is predicted to make landfall on the west coast of Nadu Island in 20 minutes. The current maximum wind force in the center is 197 kilometers per hour. There will be huge waves in the early stage.
It is possible that there will be a C-level 'surge', and some marine aberrations will have an impact on the coastal defense lines such as Nadu, Pala, New Ark, etc. We cannot rule out the possibility of B-level or higher aberrations appearing in wind areas..."
REE banged the steering wheel, feeling a little irritated. The route he took happened to be within the scope of the "Running Tide". If you were unlucky and encountered a few aberrant species that came ashore, it would be really disgusting.
However, after listening to the news, it seems that the escalation of Hurricane Kuala may be caused by the influence of powerful aberrations in the wind area. This kind of powerful beast that can temporarily affect extreme weather has been around for a long time.
It has not appeared in the surrounding waters for a while.
