The lights in the study room of the Sheriff's Mansion came on.
On the treetops of the moon, the chaos in most places in Xingke County has subsided, but many people are destined to have no sleep that night. Everyone from the Statistics Department, the Punishment Department, the City Guard Department, and the County Guards are running around non-stop.
Under the command of 'Lan Yan', we liquidated the losses and arrested the traitors.
Yin Guyue walked into the county governor's mansion under the moonlight. The once solemn and stable gate was now badly damaged. The ground was stained with flesh and blood after the bloody battle. The air was filled with the lingering disgusting stench of blood, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Yin Guyue couldn't help but pinch her nose.
"Captain Yin." The operator who was loading the corpses for disposal quickly greeted Yin Guyue: "The director said that when you come, you can go to the study to report to him."
Yin Guyue nodded, looked around at the surrounding operators, and asked: "How are the casualties?"
"There were no casualties."
"No casualties?"
"Yes." The operator said with a longing look on his face: "We actually arrived a little later than the director. When we arrived, the rebels stationed at the door had suffered heavy casualties. We were just following the director's instructions to finish the work.
The handling and vigilance did nothing at all.”
Yin Guyue was startled for a moment, and then he glanced at the damaged wall door of the Sheriff's Mansion.
'What a monster...'
Yin Guyue strode into the atrium of the Sheriff's Mansion and saw many people busy in the main hall. He did not join in the fun and went straight to the study. When he opened the door and walked in, he saw Lan Yan standing and browsing the information in the study.
Lan Yan had been disarmed at this time, and there were no weapons around him. He was wearing a rather elegant blue robe. A stick of incense was lit in the study, exuding a quiet and far-reaching fragrance.
"Welcome back." Lan Yan said without looking away from the contents of the document, "Please sit down."
"You haven't even sat down, so I don't dare to sit down."
Lan Yan smiled slightly when he heard this, shook his head, put his hand on the back of the main chair in the study, and said: "This chair represents the apex of power in Xingke County. If I sit on it, it will be arrogance."
Naturally, Ding Yi's past meetings were not held in the main hall with four wide open doors for receiving guests. The study room of the county governor's house was the core of power where he and his confidants conspired to discuss matters. It was basically the same for the directors of the chief administrative department, the punishment department, and the statistics department to come to the county governor's house.
It is to go to the study to discuss matters and obey orders. In other words, the main chair in the study is indeed the seat of power in Xingke County.
However, when Yin Guyue heard this, her expression became very strange. Lan Yan glanced at him and said with a smile: "Is there anything you want to say?"
"Hehe, I don't dare." Yin Guyue waved her hand.
It's not that I don't have it, it's that I don't dare.
"I know, you think I'm just putting on a show, full of conspiracy yet upright, hypocritical, treacherous and hypocritical." There was no anger on Lan Yan's face, as if he was telling someone else's story: "However, if it were you, you would
Are you sitting here giving orders?"
Yin Guyue thought for a moment and shook her head: "Probably not."
"Why not?"
"not feeling well."
"Why do you feel bad?" Lan Yan said: "Now everyone in the county knows that I saved Xingke County, they all know that all the high-level officials were killed, and they all know that I, Lan Yan, have all the power in Xingke County. I
Whether you sit in this chair or not will not affect reality at all, but... you also feel that this is not good, right?"
Yin Guyue nodded thoughtfully.
"There are no rational people in this world. Everyone is acting based on their 'feelings'." Lan Yan took out another document and looked at it carefully: "Righteousness, reasons, covenants, justice, destiny, edicts...these are illusory concepts.
In fact, words and words have no meaning, but because we all act based on 'feelings', they become rules and morals, gain weight, and weigh on us all the time."
"Why did Governor Lu have to let Master Ding die in the turmoil? Why couldn't I just send Master Ding away? Because interests are important, but righteousness and kindness are also indispensable. People will instinctively pursue interests, but the same people's aspirations
Goodness - because they know that kindness and morality are the greater good."
"Only interests without righteousness will lead to betrayal and alienation, just like Master Ding who resisted Lu's rule; only righteousness without interests is just an idealist chasing dreams, like a rebel party in the white night; only by balancing righteousness and interests can we win the support of the people."
To the support of all the people."
"It's too troublesome." Yin Guyue sighed: "Can't it be simpler?"
"You think we are taking a long way around, but in fact we are already taking a shortcut." Lan Yan smiled and said: "Smartness is our tool. When you master this tool skillfully and take into account both interests and kindness, you will discover the world
shortcut - conspiracy."
"Gu Yue, you'd better adapt to the rules of this game quickly. Only after adapting to the rules can you take advantage of the loopholes in the rules and win the game... because the next game is not a small place like the Statistics Department, but
We are in Linhai."
Yin Guyue blinked: "Should I also go to Linhai?"
Lan Yan: "Of course, you will be my deputy next."
Yin Guyue shrugged: "Your last deputy just died in my hands... Why did you choose me? You obviously have so many candidates who respect and obey you, not to mention you don't trust me."
Lan Yan smiled slightly.
"Longing is the furthest emotion from understanding. Besides, you were wrong. I trust you very much."
"As long as I don't fall, you will always be my most powerful and loyal subordinate."
Having said this, Lan Yan sighed softly: "Deputy Director Kui could actually gain my trust, but it's a pity that he is not rational enough and he still has weaknesses."
Obviously Lan Yan's voice was approachable, and his words were quite gentle and modest. However, for some reason, Yin Guyue could only feel a chill coming from the bone marrow.
He was not in a playful mood at this time and reported: "Kui Zhao is dead, and the saint's relics have been taken away by your traders."
Lan Yan nodded noncommittally, and Yin Guyue asked again: "Are we going to send the Ultimate Divine Weapon out like this? Among the many Ultimate Divine Weapons, the Saint's Relic should be the only weapon close to the level of the Phantom Divine Weapon, right?"
"Don't be too concerned about the benefits that you have failed to obtain. They are just illusions." Lan Yan shook his head: "Governor Lu has made his attitude clear. He will not let us obtain the saint's relics. Obtaining them by force will only arouse suspicion...
…Why should our relationship between father and son be tarnished for the sake of a mere artifact?”
The love between father and son... Yin Guyue blinked: "Director, are you going to become the son-in-law of Governor Lu?"
"Maybe he is a son-in-law, or he may be an adopted son." Lan Yan said calmly: "The tradition of a large family... Without this relationship, how can Governor Lu safely allow me to take charge of the Linhai Navy?"
"People will always wishfully believe that the bonds of blood, morality, intimacy, and humanity can become powerful shackles. This is also the rule of the game... If you want to become a chess piece in the game, you have to wear these shackles and dance."
Yin Guyue asked: "Then...are you going to let your trader go like this?"
"Just conduct a normal search. At night, you cannot be his opponent. He must have left Xingke County before dawn."
Lan Yan suddenly remembered something: "Is Qian Yuliu dead?"
"Probably dead."
"What a pity. I thought he had a chance of becoming my deputy."
Yin Guyue felt very strange: "But isn't he also very affectionate and righteous? Doesn't it seem to be in line with your requirements?"
"My request is not to be ruthless and inhumane, but... how should I put it?" Lan Yan suddenly looked at Yin Guyue: "I think he is quite similar to you."
Yin Guyue twitched her lips: "I can't laugh at this sentence. You have said before that I look very similar to Kui Zhao."
"I'm not kidding, you two have a kind of far-off temperament, as if you have been watching the world with cold eyes, without being bound by any shackles..."
Lan Yan suddenly closed his mouth, shook his head and said with a smile: "Sorry, I seem to have said too many boring words. Go and do your work."
Yin Guyue also felt that he said some boring words, so she left the study after hearing the words.
When passing by the atrium, he noticed that the operators were stacking firewood and other flammable materials in the main hall, so he walked over and asked, "What are you doing?"
"The director ordered us to burn down this main hall." the operators replied.
"Why?" Yin Guyue looked at the closed door of the main hall and strode over.
"I heard it can't be used anymore... Captain Yin, farewell!" The operators quickly advised: "Captain Yin, the director said it's best not to open the door to the main hall!"
Hearing this, Yin Guyue became even more curious and took away the lantern of the operator next to her: "I'll just take a look."
He stood in front of the main hall door and listened closely. He didn't find any movement inside, so he gently opened the door a crack and put the lantern close to illuminate the scene in the main hall.
However, before Yin Guyue could see anything, the smell that assaulted his nostrils had already caused all the cells in his body to protest, causing strong discomfort and causing his stomach to spasm.
When he saw the scene inside the main hall clearly, Yin Guyue instantly closed the crack in the door, ran outside with a pale face to breathe in the fresh night air, waved her hands to other operators and said: "According to the order of the director,
Just burn this house down, don't open the door and look."
It was a very wise decision to burn the house. Yin Guyue could tell with one glance and her rich experience that even if the main hall was cleaned several times, the smell of blood inside would never be dissipated.
At this time, he suddenly remembered what Lan Yan said just now.
'People will always wishfully believe that the fetters of blood, morality, intimacy, and humanity can become powerful shackles.'
If Lu Zhong saw the scene in the main hall, would he still think that his shackles could restrain Lan Yan... Yin Guyue couldn't help but smile, stretched out and went to complete her work.
He had a hunch that he would never be bored following Lan Yan.

…
18th Street.
The "Teeth, Hemorrhoids, Iron" clinic was naturally closed, and the basement was in a mess. Yin Yinyin had hidden his escape materials very densely, and it was too troublesome to take them out normally. Le Yu directly pushed all the cabinets and rummaged through them.
, too lazy to bother with him.
Leyu loses his temper.jpg
Yin Yin Yin is naturally ready to leave Xing Ke County. Now it is impossible for Le Yu to stay in Xing Ke County. Both Le Yu and Yin Yin Yin feel that this city is under the control of Lan Yan.
It is definitely not a place to stay for a long time - even if Le Yu has a good impression of Lan Yan, he still feels this way.
When rummaging through the cabinet, Le Yu found a tightly sealed ornate box. He looked through Yin Yin's memories and found out that it was a reward.
White Night's reward for them.
According to the plan, if they succeed in seizing the city, such a huge contribution will naturally require a lot of rewards, so Bai Ye directly sends the rewards in advance. These rewards are not items that can increase their combat power in a short time, but for the White Night Walkers, they are all
It makes some sense.
Naturally, Yin Yinyin would not do such a common-sense act as "removing rewards in advance", but Le Yu didn't mind this at all. With the mentality of "maybe he can get something useful", Le Yu opened the
The box.
The things inside are all packed in bags with code names. For example, Wang Zongdao's reward is the "Xingyue" bag. Unexpectedly, this ordinary middle-aged man's code name is quite Sailor Moon. The thing inside is a string of purple fragrant wood.
Bracelet.
Qi Shihao's reward was a few pages of the manuscript experience of 'Master Yi'. Master Yi was a master of sword-wielding warfare three hundred years ago. His experience and experience are naturally outdated in this era, but it seems that many people regard this blind master as
As an idol, Qi Shihao should also be his fan.
Ling Yun's reward is a new book, titled "The Legend of the God of Fire Part 6: Epic Chapter". Le Yu has heard of this. "The Legend of the God of Fire" is a very popular novel about passionate warriors in the Yanjing area, Xingke County
There is only the first volume of this book, which tells the story of a boy who was born unable to awaken his spiritual power and worked hard to become the strongest warrior. The most famous sentence in it is "I want to be a warrior, even the worst and worst warrior".
Stupid warrior - as long as he is a warrior, that's fine. I didn't expect that Ling Yun was also a reader of this book. "The Legend of Fire God Part 6" should be the latest volume of this book.
An Qian's reward was a set of... a white dress. The quality of the fabric was very good. Le Yu took it out and compared it, and felt that it should fit An Qian's tall and tall figure. Although Le Yu had never seen An Qian,
An Qian wears such women's clothes, but after thinking about it, he felt that An Qian would look very beautiful in this dress.
Le Yu flipped through it for a while, and finally saw the envelope of 'Meteor' - which was the reward for Qian Yuliu.
A stamped appointment notice and a medal.
Because Qian Yuliu has always been a spy and has one-way contact with the contact person, there is no record of Qian Yuliu in the White Night organization. This appointment and removal letter officially declares Qian Yuliu to be a White Night Walker in the White Night organization. The medal engraved with "Meteor" can prove that Qian Yuliu is a White Night Walker in the White Night organization.
Flow of achievements.
There are two spaces on the appointment notice that require signatures, namely 'Guarantor' and 'Inspector'. Both spaces are filled with names, the former is 'Lin Jinyao' and the latter is 'Yin Yinyin'.
Le Yu looked at it for a while and put the notice and medal back into the envelope.
The last reward is an envelope codenamed ‘Reach for the Stars’.
This is a reward for Yin Yin Yin.
Le Yu couldn't help but feel a little curious. He opened the envelope and found a pile of information inside. The content of the long article seemed incomprehensible. Le Yu knew every word, but when they were put together, he couldn't understand it.
.
Turning to the last page, Le Yu finally understood what the content of this manuscript was about——
"...Based on past data and research, by conducting experiments according to the above thirteen methods, it is very possible to remove the binding effect of the saint's relic without harming the original owner."
Le Yu was stunned for a moment, then the corners of her mouth kept twitching and she couldn't help smiling. Finally, she couldn't hold it back anymore. She covered her stomach and rolled around in the messy basement, laughing so hard that her abdominal muscles were exposed.
