210 meetings

When Du Yuhan entered the conference room in the depths of the guild, it was already full of people, and when he looked at it, it was all elders with considerable status. After seeing the people clearly, the atmosphere that was originally quite warm suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

More than a dozen pairs of eyes were staring at themselves in unison, although they still had a polite smile on their faces, but the temptation, vigilance and hostility in their eyes made Du Yuhan panic in his heart.

"Is that him?"

"No, I heard it's the reincarnation of Ciel."

"Huh, that's it?"

"With a sandbox and a marble bracelet, isn't this Ciel?"

"Cut, nonsense."

Ignoring the whispers around him, Du Yuhan walked quietly to the corner.

Chong Du Yuhan nodded as a gift, and the fat man continued to be interrupted by the topic, "Your Excellency said that you sent someone to the Al Empire to investigate, did you find anything?" ”

A woman dressed as an assassin arched her hand, "Yes. Despite all the difficulties of the Guild of the Al Empire, and even the special addition of subordinates stationed in the garrison, my subordinates managed to infiltrate Kared's residence and the study in his guild and found something strange. ”

"All kinds of difficulties?" Another modeler frowned, "Why are they doing this?" ”

"This still needs to be discussed?" Suddenly, a middle-aged man with a thin figure sneered, "The sandbox is an heirloom artifact, and there are many people who want to have it." Now that they are blocking the news, I am afraid that some people have moved some unsightly thoughts. ”

Hearing this, everyone in the room was indignant.

"This sandbox should have belonged to the country of Lindot, but it was stolen by Kared, and the Empire of Arr should bear the corresponding responsibility. Now they didn't send reinforcements, but they even shielded the criminals, prevented the victims from seeking justice, and complied with the thieves! ”

"No wonder before the final began, they told us to pay attention to Kared, it seems that they have already taken precautions against him!"

"Damn! In vain, they were attacked by unknown puppets in various places before, and we still reached out to help, but now we have turned our faces and denied people! ”

"Hmph, now it seems that the origin of those puppets is probably not simple."

"It'sβ€”"

"Enough!" With a coercive roar echoing in the room, Du Yuhan only felt that his heart sank, and the room instantly fell into silence.

Seeing that everyone's emotions gradually calmed down, the fat man slowly spoke, "Let the past pass, our top priority now is to get the sandbox back, so as not to fall into the hands of people with bad intentions." ”

He paused and asked again in a deep voice, "What exactly is the discovery that Your Excellency is talking about?" ”

"It's strange to say." The woman frowned, "Although Kareed has disappeared for several days, the servants in the residence are still business as usual. There was no case of making donations to escape, and even the guild's study did not seem to have been deliberately cleaned up. Later, when I investigated carefully, it seemed that he had only taken a few ornaments and clothes with him before leaving, and he had not even taken some research materials with him. ”

Du Yuhan blinked.

Ornament? Why should a person who is going to flee bring decorations? Speaking of which, shouldn't those documents be more valuable?

Others were puzzled by the question, but that didn't stop everyone from coming to a preliminary conclusion.

"In this way, Kared must have left in a hurry, and he didn't have time to make some careful preparations." The thin man touched his chin, and the more he thought about it, the more justified he felt, "Now is the best time to assault, why don't we take this opportunity to take one of them." ”

The others listened and chimed in.

On the contrary, the fat man only wrinkled his eyebrows, not commenting. He lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, "Is there anything else to gain besides this news?" ”

The woman pondered for a moment, "A little bit of inconsequential rumor may not be very helpful. ”

"Please."

She was about to open her lips when her gaze swept to the tall figure in the back row, and her lips tightened.

"What's wrong?" The president was puzzled by the woman's behavior, "Is there any difficulty?" ”

"......" was silent for a long time, her eyes wandered around, but she couldn't say why.

followed his gaze, but saw that the person was Du Yuhan, who joined halfway. As if seeing through her embarrassment, he chuckled, "It's okay, just say it." ”

"But ......"

The president waved his hand indifferently and smiled kindly, "Mr. Wagner is a well-known modeler in Lindot, and his work ethic and personality are obvious to all. Since he chose Mr. Du Yuhan, I also believe in his vision. ”

Du Yuhan tightened his eyebrows.

Although this sounds heartwarming, the meaningful eyes of the other party always make people uncomfortable.

Why move out of Wagner at this time?

Seeing that the president agreed, the woman no longer insisted.

"According to reliable sources, for a long time, apart from the commission assigned by the city lord, Kareed did not leave the city for half a step. However, he often arranges for his students to go outside for training. ”

"The teacher gives the students practical topics, and it doesn't seem like a big deal." Someone immediately questioned it.

As if to anticipate this, the woman added unhurriedly, "I have investigated the movements of those two brothers. ”

"Gemini Modeler?" The man was stunned for a moment, and his expression became a little ugly.

Gemini? Du Yuhan thought to himself. They couldn't be talking about the Reilly brothers, right?

"That's right. The two brothers were known to be the proud students of Khared, and although they had long been able to stand on their own, they had not served any nobles until now. With that, the woman's gaze subconsciously swept over Du Yuhan.

Suddenly, a young man sneered, "It's about being a student in name, who knows what kind of deal is in private?" ”

As soon as these words came out, several unkind eyes, with nonchalant exploration and ridicule, all fell on Du Yuhan.

Du Yuhan was stunned for a moment, and quietly raised his eyebrows.

Without going into the nitty-gritty of the topic, the woman's palm flipped over, and a roll of parchment appeared out of thin air in her palm, "This is part of the whereabouts I have collected." ”

The president took the parchment and shook it open, and the modeler next to him couldn't wait to come over. The more he looked down, the more frightened he became, "Matt Desert? What do they go to the desert for? ”

The woman shook her head slightly, and stood to the side with her hands down.

The fat man's brows tightened, and he put the parchment in his pocket, "I understand, hard work for you." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the woman saluted him, and her figure disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

The chairman glanced at everyone with a stern expression, "What do you think?" ”

Everyone was talking about it, either excited or calm. But the only thing they had in common was the excitement in their eyes.

Looking at the chaotic picture in front of him from afar, Du Yuhan, who was standing on the outermost layer, sighed without a trace.

In fact, the purpose of his coming this time was not to participate in the encirclement or make any plans. He just wanted to explain the sandbox to the president so that he could help Wagner, who was implicated by himself. But now in this situation, I am afraid it is really difficult to find an opportunity to talk in private.

But then again, he is not outstanding in terms of strength, and he is definitely not ranked in terms of status, but why did the president invite him to the meeting? And looking at the minds of these people, it seems that they are still quite defensive against him.

After standing stupidly for a long time, Du Yuhan felt a little bored, and estimated that it would be impossible to chat privately today, so he took advantage of the president's spare time to say goodbye to the other party in a low voice.

"You're leaving?" The guild leader's brow furrowed for a moment, then relaxed, "Why don't you wait for a moment, the meeting will be soon-"

"Nope." Du Yuhan smiled and scratched his head, "Although I won the championship, my strength is still far behind the elders. I guess I won't be able to help much with this operation, so it's better to go back sooner and not bother you to entertain me. ”

"How can it be troublesome?" The president shook his head and smiled, "I have always admired Mr. Wagner very much, you are his beloved disciple, and you are a model with great potential, why am you in trouble when I call you?" ”

Du Yuhan has always been skeptical of the president's enthusiasm, but judging from the other party's attitude, Wagner should not be embarrassed. But why do they still insist on refusing to release them in the name of investigation?

Just as he was about to say goodbye again, an arrogant male voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Lord, that's not what I said." At this moment, the thin middle-aged man walked out arrogantly, "In terms of guild status, Mr. Wagner is indeed admired. But one yard is one yard, this kid hasn't settled accounts with him about the sandbox before, in case he does something alone in the name of helping-"

"I don't have a private collection." Du Yuhan's eyes were cold.

"Then why didn't you report it to the guild right away?"

"I didn't know that this ordinary iron hangar was a sandbox."

"Don't know?" The thin man sneered, "If you want to find an excuse, you have to find a reliable one, I think you are just uneasy and kind, and you want to swallow the sandbox alone, so you pretend not to know and refuse to hand it over to the guild!" ”

"Your Excellency, I wonder if you have misunderstood something." Being wronged is already aggrieved, not to mention that Du Yuhan has never been a good-tempered person.

"Misunderstanding?" The thin man raised an eyebrow.

Du Yuhan clenched his fists and stared straight at the other party, "The owner of the sandbox was originally Master Hill, the creator, but now that Master Hill is gone, the sandbox has become ownerless. Although it is true that monopoly is unjustifiable, it is not necessary for anyone or any organization to have the qualifications to ask others to hand over the sandbox, right? ”

When he first got the sandbox, he didn't realize that this inconspicuous gadget was actually an heirloom artifact. It wasn't until later in the sandbox enchantment that I stumbled upon its true value.

He admits that he did have selfish motives in the process. But if you take 10,000 steps back, the sandbox itself belongs to the ownerless, and whoever picks it up is whoever picks it up. This is not an ancient cultural relic, everything has to be handed over to the state.

As soon as the words ended, the room was eerily quiet.

was so frightened by Du Yuhan's strong momentum that his breath stagnated, and the thin man was stunned for a few seconds. People have always been respectful to him, how could anyone dare to embarrass him? Now he was reprimanded in public by a junior, and his face turned pale for a while. He immediately widened his eyes, and his fingers trembled and pointed at the tip of Du Yuhan's nose, "You-"

"Your Excellency is angry, this junior is right." Weijing's words were all cut off, and an old man with gray hair smiled and smiled, "The sandbox is a precious treasure handed down by the creator to future generations, and it really does not belong to a certain person or organization, I agree with Mr. Du Yuhan's point of view." ”

When the thin man heard this, he immediately pulled down his face, "Hey! You-"

The old man half-raised his hand, signaling him to be calm.

"But on the other hand, since it is a common property for everyone, it should benefit everyone." He smiled faintly, "Although the current model artist system has a good momentum, compared to other professions, the number is still far from enough. The sandbox has the magical power to improve people's modeling skills, so it should be put to good use, and the guild environment is undoubtedly the best choice. ”

Hearing this, Du Yuhan's eyes widened in surprise.

"It seems that Your Excellency agrees with my statement." Seeing that the other party did not raise any objections, the old man showed a kind smile, but his eyes were full of indifference, "Then, in the future, I will ask you for more advice on the use of the sandbox." ”

DΓ©jΓ  vu words, dΓ©jΓ  vu pictures, he suddenly understood why these people were so taboo about him at the beginning, and they invited him to come to discuss.

Not because of trust, not because of strength, but because he was once the owner of the sandbox, and they wanted to know more about the secrets of the artifact.

Du Yuhan couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

History is always strikingly similar.

In the past, Hill was surrounded and suppressed, and his life was lost; Now it's Carred's turn again, and the plot of cooking dishes is reproduced according to the version. Even these gang of cannon fodder elders are the same, and they don't have to change the reason.

Seeing that these old immortals are all sanctimonious, I didn't expect the abacus to be quite fine. Want to use him at the disposal of the sandbox? Then it also depends on whether Lao Tzu is willing or not!

It's a pity that what Du Yuhan can think of, the other party must have expected it.

"Haha, that's nature." But seeing that the fat man laughed loudly, he took a few steps forward and patted Du Yuhan's shoulder vigorously, "As the saying goes, a famous teacher makes a high apprentice." Mr. Wagner's fame is very high, and his protΓ©gΓ© will surely make a difference in the world of modeling. ”

I chuckled involuntarily in my heart, and Du Yuhan had a faint sense of foreboding.

As soon as the conversation changed, the chairman sighed faintly, "But the most important thing now is to re-collect the sandbox, so that Mr. Wagner's misunderstanding can be resolved as soon as possible." ”

Misunderstand?

"What do you mean?" Du Yuhan's eyes were cold, and hot anger rushed up from the soles of his feet.

It's a pity that the fat man didn't answer him, only showed a considerate smile, "It's not too early, since Your Excellency Du Yuhan has something important to do, then I won't forcibly keep it." In a few days, when the enemy's strategy is made, I hope you will not hesitate to lend a helping hand. ”

Now, Du Yuhan finally understood.

They threaten themselves with Wagner!

It is no wonder that in the past few days, the gang has never summoned themselves, but instead asked the unrelated Wagner to assist in the investigation.

Nima: They have dug the pit from the very beginning!

Du Yuhan's face was tense, and the original knife-like lines appeared even more cold and hard. Suddenly, the corners of his mouth curled and a strange smile appeared, "Since the elder personally asks for it, I will definitely do my part." ”

"Okay, I'll bother you." The fat man patted Du Yuhan's shoulder with a smile, and his little eyes were spinning around.

"You're welcome." With a cold face, the corners of his mouth twitched, Du Yuhan squinted his eyes, and regardless of whether anyone around him noticed, he saluted stiffly, and turned around and left without looking back.

Five days later, the thief army formed by the Lindote National Model Masters Guild set off from Longcheng.
