The sweet time passed quickly, and the next morning, the two of them went to a small restaurant in Chicago near the suburbs for breakfast.

Outside the restaurant is a pedestrian street, and outside the old little bungalows, are local residents walking their dogs in the morning, a bit of a western town.

Many of the walls of the houses are still pasted with election posters, which have been drenched off by the wind and rain, and many places have been directly graffitied.

The lazy daylight pierced through the glass windows and illuminated some of the locations near the windows.

This kind of non-chain small restaurant has a strong American family atmosphere, but there are many customers in it, there are several people at each table, almost twenty or thirty customers, most of them are middle-aged and elderly.

A bearded strong cook, two white middle-aged women waitresses, busy inside, anxious.

Mrs. Mu arrived early, beckoned the two to sit down, and ordered some bacon, sausages, eggs, and other breakfasts.

After chatting happily for a while, breakfast was almost over, and many of the guests in the restaurant had already left.

Su Yingxue hesitated and asked, "Mrs. Mu, should you go to the meeting?" I'll just find a café next to me and sit alone, and leave me alone."

Mrs. Mu pursed her lips and smiled, "Don't worry."

With that, Mrs. Mu stood up, leaned her neck, and swept around the restaurant, as if waiting for something.

At this time, a young couple left the restaurant in a hurry, as if to go to work, after paying the bill at the cash register.

A middle-aged waitress with a lot of freckles on her nose in the restaurant hurriedly trotted to the door, and directly hung the "CLOSE" closing sign and locked the door.

Another waiter lowered the curtains facing the street so that the outside could not see the inside.

The dozen or so "customers" of men and women who were still chatting or drinking coffee just now also showed unbearable expressions, got up one by one, walked to Lin Fei and Su Yingxue, found a chair nearby and sat down, and surrounded the three of them.

Su Yingxue was at a loss for a while, what the hell is going on, why did this group of people suddenly look at her with strange eyes?

Before she could think about it, the waitress who had gone to close the door took off her apron, threw it casually, and scolded, "Damn, Frank, next time you want to find a restaurant for a meeting, don't look for this kind of business that is too good!

The bearded chef smiled and took off his hat, "I think this place is good, it's much more reliable than the barber shop last time, at least my cooking skills are better than your haircutting skills."

"That's because the guest's head is so weird!Oh my God, there's cockroaches in this restaurant!?" Winnie screamed as she looked at a small bug in the corner.

"No way, the owner hasn't been here for a while," Frank said.

"Don't talk this nonsense there, you see, Miss Su is already scared", Mrs. Mu shook her head helplessly.

"This ...... What the hell is going on?" Su Yingxue looked at Lin Fei on the side.

Lin Fei didn't look surprised at all, obviously he already knew the reason for this qiē, shrugged his shoulders, and said embarrassedly: "Let's let Mrs. Mu explain."

Mrs. Mu stretched out her hand happily and shook Su Yingxue's hand, "Miss Su, on behalf of the Senate of the Hall, I officially welcome you to become one of us!"

"What!?" Su Yingxue was a little incoherent in confusion, "I...... No...... This...... Didn't I know guò?"

Mrs. Mu smiled, and the other seemingly ordinary "customers" also smiled.

Su Yingxue thought for a while, and suddenly realized, "Could it be ......?"

Mrs. Mu said apologetically, "You've already thought of it...... Yes, in fact, the real assessment of you is not the investment project, but the transfer contract. If you choose to give up Allure International immediately and take over the company, then you will really be rejected by us.

But fortunately, Miss Su's choice is not different from what we expected, you really did not abandon those who followed you, did not believe in your words, and did not waver because of money. Your quality makes us want to trust".

Su Yingxue felt as if she had fallen from the clouds to the ground, and then jumped from the ground into the air, it was like riding a roller coaster, which was also too exciting!

"That'...... Everyone here is a member of the Senate?!" Su Yingxue looked at this group of ordinary people who were dressed in different clothes, some wore famous brands, some wore supermarket goods, but they were all ordinary, and they would never recognize them on the street with the slightest special skin color, no matter how they looked like mysterious members of the hall, let alone characters from the underground world.

Mrs. Mu explained: "Miss Su may have misunderstood, the senators in our hall are not from the underground world, we are all ordinary people in the world. Like me, if I don't say it, do you think I'm a member of the Senate?"

Su Yingxue shook her head, she really couldn't imagine that this qiē was too sudden, I am afraid that people who don't know the truth will think that the members of the Senate in the hall are composed of a group of super masters of the underground world with very terrifying strength!

Mrs. Mu began by introducing the group of members who came to the meeting, starting with the veteran members.

The "cook" Frank is a book publisher in North Carolina, and the two "waiters", Winnie and Keller, are professors in the art department of a university in Maryland, respectively, and an ordinary housewife in Ottawa, Canada.

Some other people have different occupations, such as major shareholders of listed companies, famous social activists, and designers in the fashion industry. On the more ordinary ones, there are elementary school English teachers, park gardeners, fishery staff, and even cashiers at Walmart supermarkets!?

Su Yingxue felt that her head was messy, the most mysterious and powerful hall in the underground world, the most mysterious senate members in the hall, turned out to be such a group of ordinary people who didn't even have a little lethality!?

"Detail, I will make it clear to Miss Su in the future, everyone will get to know each other today, come, I will give this to you, it is a token of the Senate."

Mrs. Mu handed over a pendant that looked like silver and looked like it was made of some kind of alloy to Su Yingxue.

This pendant is a triangle with an eye inside, if you look closely, you will find that the pendant is covered with dense complex fine lines, and after looking at it for a long time, it seems that this eye will move.

Su Yingxue was a little dazed, and looked back at Lin Fei, "You already knew that I had already passed Guò?"

Lin Fei spread his hands innocently, "I can't participate in the review process of the Senate in the hall, so I can't express any opinions until Mrs. Mu announces it at a formal meeting, so you should be a surprise."

"I hate it!" Su Yingxue wanted to laugh and cry, which was really too pleasant, but then she wondered: "The Senate is meeting in this restaurant?"

"Actually, we don't have a fixed meeting point", Frank's expression became a little solemn at this time, "Every time we meet, the old members will take turns to choose, it may be a factory, it may be a school, a restaurant, a café, these are very common......

It's not that it's for secrecy, but it's the rules of our hall council, which have been passed down for thousands of years."

"Okay, as for the matter of the Senate, I will take Miss Su to learn more about it later, and this time His Excellency Skelp wants to meet us to discuss what do you think about the dereliction of duty of the head of the hall, Victor", Mrs. Mu asked the crowd.

The councillor, who is actually an elementary school English teacher, said: "His Excellency Skerap did not hand over the position of chief examiner to Victor in the first place, so he should have been guarding against this day. Now that he has colluded with the mysterious Purgatory Legion and used the resources of our hall to destroy human civilization, it is natural that he is no longer suitable for the hall master."

"I don't think there's any objection to this, a few veterans, just vote for it," said a fishery employee.

Mrs. Mu and a few other relatively older elders, seeing that no one raised objections, took out their respective "triangular eye" pendants and hung them in front of each other.

Everyone, with a holy face, gathered together, not embarrassed in the slightest that this was a small broken restaurant, and the twelve elders, chanting and speaking, spoke like an ancient poem.
