Volume 1 Chapter 15 Breaking the Siege
Xu Donglan stopped his recollection, turned his attention back to the face, looked at the blank paper in front of him, he put his right hand up, and slowly released his strange ability, the first question mark on the white paper slowly disappeared, replaced by two other words, seeing these two words, Xu Donglan smiled slightly.
He got up, tore the white paper in front of him to pieces and threw it in the trash, and walked to the cabinet with the crystal ball, placing the crystal ball back in his original position, and then he touched the wall behind a box to the left of the crystal ball and gently pushed it with his hand.
Suddenly, the entire cabinet began to move to the right, revealing a secret room, it stands to reason that in the central building of the core area, there should not be a hidden secret room, but Xu Donglan forced one to hide here, and this secret room is not a place he used to conduct any forbidden experiments, there is only a bed, a pair of tables and chairs, and a secret passage that Tan Bo passed through when he came.
He walked to Wen Yifan's side, picked him up and put him on the bed, and closed the door of the secret room from the outside, only to see the cabinet move slowly, Xu Donglan sat back in his place, and the five fingers of his right hand tapped on the table, waiting for the arrival of the guests.
On the other hand, Tan Bo quickly finished the matter - telling "him" to arrange manpower to find the two people who had an accident in this collective special approval, and inform their families of the current situation, so that Wen Yifan's uncle could come to see Xu Donglan.
Although there were some things that Xu Donglan did not arrange, Tan Bo knew that he had to do this to improve, which was something that a qualified subordinate should do.
Then he rushed to Chief Wang Yi's office, not even bothering to take the elevator, even if he used his special ability, he would reach the destination as quickly as possible at any cost.
But when he arrived at the door of Wang Yi's office, he met a person - Huang Chuan.
After Huang Chuan was arrested in public in Long An, after the beast tide ended, he had just completed the handover of rights and obligations to Long An in the chief's office, and officially became the core figure of the bystanders.
As soon as he went out, he met Tan Bo, and when he saw Tan Bo sweating all over his body and looking very panicked, he was not shocked, but said to Tan Bo: "Catch up, the chief is about to talk to Xiao Chen, and he just took me away." ”
The relationship between Chen Yuyan and Tan Bo can be said to be known to everyone.
Tan Bo nodded, and quickly sorted out the clothes that he had already soiled and messed up because of running fast, after all, he was going to meet the person with the highest status in the entire Strange Ability City, Huang Chuan patted him on the shoulder and left, although he didn't know what happened specifically, but this matter must be related to Huang Jia, but he didn't want to go deeper, because if Wang Yi wanted him to know, he would have told him a long time ago, and as a subordinate, he must have a sense of proportion.
Tan Bo stepped forward and knocked on the closed door of Wang Yi's office.
"Who?" Wang Yi's voice came from the room.
"Tan Bo, Shadow Branch of the Abilities Alliance."
"Come in." Wang Yi's tone became a little cold.
Tan Bo cautiously pushed open the door and showed an embarrassed but polite smile to Chen Yuyan, who was bowing his head on the side, and Chen Yuyan also saluted him back.
"What's the matter?" Wang Yi interrupted the little couple's eyebrows, and was in a bad mood when the interrogation was interrupted, Chen Yuyan didn't even realize the seriousness of the problem, so her tone had changed from being cold just now to being a little angry.
Tan Bo naturally heard that something was wrong in Wang Yi's tone, so he immediately bowed and apologized, and presented Xu Donglan's letter with both hands: "This is what the boss said to you." ”
Wang Yi saw this move, took the letter, opened the envelope in front of the two of them, and saw that there was only a piece of paper inside, which seemed to have a few words written on it, after seeing the content of the letter, Wang Yi patted his head with his right hand, feeling helpless: "You two go, but Chen Yuyan still stays in the Strange City, I will go to Guangli with another person." ”
Seeing this scene, Tan Bo was also surprised and delighted, although Chen Yuyan was still suspended, but there was no other punishment, he really didn't expect that a letter from his master would be so easy to use, and Chen Yuyan on the side bowed slightly and said, "Okay." Then he took Tan Bo and walked out, and when he got out of the center building, Chen Yuyan asked, "What's the matter?" ”
After all, what he did was bad and violated discipline, although Wang Yi himself didn't like complicated regulations, such as wasting time by going through the motions, but he himself attached great importance to the normal regulations and laws that must be followed.
This is also the reason why he himself has been able to be the chief and has not been opposed by most people, although last year, the first high-level meeting of the Abnormal Alliance has just passed the "Chief Law of the Abnormal Alliance", announcing that the chief can be replaced by elections, as long as two-thirds of the people agree.
But at the end of the meeting, Wang Yi was successfully elected with 95% of the votes in favor and a term of office of three years.
Therefore, Chen Yuyan was very confused about confiscating any additional punishment for herself, but just the "execution" of being revoked from her position, which was tantamount to giving her a period of leave, that is, she did something wrong, and she was rewarded without punishment.
It's like a thief stealing a priceless treasure from a rich man, only to be caught red-handed by the rich man, but the rich man didn't blame him or call the police, and gave him millions.
"I don't know much about this, anyway, after my master found out about that child, he knew that something would definitely be wrong with you, so he gave me this letter for me to give to the chief to see. Hey, why didn't you tell me when you came back, and why didn't you get found out so long, shouldn't you? ”
"I was brought back by Huang Chuan directly, and then all the communication equipment was taken away by him, and you don't know that the chief has a list of bystanders in his hand, and it also corresponds to various countries, cities, and regions, as long as you know where it happened, it's very simple to find someone."
"Then you shouldn't know where it happened so quickly."
"Who knows, we're spectators, pervasive bystanders, all the bystanders are under the control of the chief, maybe the chief knows what we're chatting about here now."
"Huh?!" Tan Bo suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and felt that a pair of eyes were looking at him, but he turned his head to find that there was nothing unusual.
"I'm kidding you, most of the onlookers are on the mainland side, although there are few on the side of the Ability City, but they all have more important tasks, it's almost impossible to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two people, how about having a meal at night."
Hearing Chen Yuyan's comfort and invitation, Tan Bo also recovered and agreed again and again; "Good, good!" Leave the fears behind you.
I saw that at the corner behind him, a black shadow slowly dissolved into the ground, and the whole block returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened, while Tan Bo and Chen Yuyan passed by this intersection with a smile and a smile, and did not find anything unusual.
At the same time, Wang Yi, Xu Donglan and Zhou Mingrui gathered in Xu Donglan's office.
There is a low table next to Xu Donglan's desk, and the three people at the low table each sit on a sofa, Xu Donglan and Wang Yi are naturally in opposite positions, and Zhou Mingrui is also very panicked when he sits between the two - after hearing that Xu Donglan has found his nephew, he came directly, and Xu Donglan poured him a cup of tea and asked him to sit.
Although he was very anxious, but after all, he was facing the high-level of the Ability Alliance, so it was naturally not easy to urge, Zhou Mingrui himself felt that today's experience was also a little magical, and he was called to the office by the top level of the Ability Alliance to "talk" to the office in a row, one of which was even the chief.
After waiting for a few minutes, Zhou Mingrui suddenly saw Wang Yi breaking in, Zhou Mingrui was shocked, and almost didn't hold the teacup in his hand, and Wang Yi also looked serious, and after seeing Zhou Mingrui, his brows furrowed even tighter, and asked Xu Donglan, "What's the matter?" ”
Xu Donglan smiled and said, "Sit down and talk slowly." With that, he took two cups of tea, walked to the sofa and sat down, and placed a cup in front of the sofa opposite. Wang Yi shook his head, sighed, and knowing the temperament of this old friend, he also sat down and began to drink tea.
Zhou Mingrui, who was sitting between the two, was extremely embarrassed, a little wanted to leave but knew that he definitely couldn't go, so the three of them maintained a strange silence.
After a cup of tea, Xu Donglan took the lead in breaking the silence: "Huang Jia died at the hands of his nephew, but it belongs to the protection behavior carried out by the ability itself after the ability broke out and caused him to lose consciousness, which is an innocent act of manslaughter. ”
This shadow boss, in fact, is not well-known among the masses, and rarely speaks at the alliance meeting, this should be the first time Zhou Mingrui has heard him say so much, and this first time shocked him, and he spoke in a very calm tone, very calm, as if what he said was what he saw with his own eyes.
"Hmm." Wang Yi did not ask Xu Donglan questions, nor did he speak to Zhou Mingrui, although Zhou Mingrui said before that there was a possibility of deceiving him.
"You two should remember the girl about the ability explosion, right?"
Wang Yi and Zhou Mingrui both nodded, the girl Xu Donglan said was a girl named Liu Ling, who was born in the hospital and did not detect her abilities, so she was treated as an ordinary person and entered human society.
As a result, during school, she was bullied by other classmates in the toilet and almost lost consciousness, and as a result, the ability that had accumulated in her body for more than ten years completely exploded, because she was a fire ability, first burned her classmates who bullied her to death, and then razed the entire toilet to the ground, but she herself survived with the powerful self-healing ability of the ability.
This matter is highly valued by the United Nations and the Alliance of Abilities, because the girl has no memory of what she did, and because he is a person with abilities and depression caused by long-term bullying at school, he is not punished by human law, but handed over to the Alliance of Abilities to deal with.
In fact, this is just a United Nations want to shirk responsibility, and cause the alien to oppose humans, because once the dissatisfaction is handled, it will cause public anger, but I didn't expect Wang Yi to kill decisively and directly execute the girl publicly.
But this is not the case, through the discussion of the foreign alliance meeting, the decision was unanimously passed to acquit Liu Ling, but in order to give an explanation to the international community, the girl changed her name and entered the hospital for special treatment, and lived in the strange city with a new identity.
And the girl who appeared during the so-called "public execution" was "created" with an ability, and later, the Ability Alliance also brought Liu Ling's family to the Ability City through operation, and also changed her name and surname to live with the girl, and now the mainland still thinks that they are dead and can't see the body, but it has become an unsolved case.
"Mr. Zhou should know better than me why the ability exploded, but I'll say it on your behalf here, because the three of you sealed the child's ability, right?"
Zhou Mingrui sighed and nodded, there is no need to continue to hide it now, obviously Xu Donglan knows more about the inside story, and even the number of people is clear, his concealment has no meaning, what makes him strange is that Wang Yi didn't say anything about him, he was still drinking his tea slowly.
"So what does the Chief think?"
"All those involved in this were removed from their posts and went to the front for a year."
"Shall I go to the front for three years?" Xu Donglan was about to speak, but Zhou Mingrui interrupted him.
"No, you are one of the swallow pigeon juries, going too long will affect the balance of all parties, and you don't want this matter to be exposed, let's settle it privately, call your two good brothers to the front line, go to the lion and tiger to register." Wang Yi's attitude is very serious and unquestionable.
Zhou Mingrui left in silence.
There are only two people left in the office, Wang Yi and Xu Donglan.
"This is the way you want it to be handled." Wang Yi said.
"Don't you think so?"
"It's almost, but it's still too light, and Chen Yuyan hasn't been punished in any way."
"That's what you promised yourself, you have to take her from me, you don't want to send her back."
"Three exemptions have already been used once."
"There won't be a second time." Xu Donglan's tone seemed to reveal sadness.
"You ......" Wang Yi, who was about to speak, also realized that his tone was wrong, and also thought of something, but stopped in the middle of speaking, so the office was silent again.
"What's the reason you want that kid to be handled privately?"
"I said, that's what you actually think."
"I wouldn't have been able to see the whole story without you, and I wouldn't have been able to stay as calm as I am."
"Old squad leader, your temper has changed for decades."
"Hey, that's in my bones, and after sitting in the chief position, I have changed a lot in order to balance all parties."
Xu Donglan didn't speak, but walked to the cabinet and pulled out another piece of white paper for detecting abilities, and opened the secret room, Wang Yi was not surprised by this, obviously he also knew the existence of the secret room, only to see Xu Donglan test Wen Yifan's ability again, and handed it to Wang Yiyi.
When Wang Yi saw the eleven abilities above, even if he was as calm as he was, he was shocked, and Xu Donglan's next sentence surprised him even more: "The second-to-last ability is my ability. ”
After half a ring, Wang Yi regained his composure, turned from shock to confusion, and was about to ask: "Then why ......" Before he could say anything, as if he knew what he wanted to ask, Xu Donglan interrupted him:
"Because that's what the treaty is about."
