"Looks like you've already chosen." The third uncle felt the change in Zhou Ping's temperament and said with a smile.

Zhou Ping sat on the chair for a long time, but still spoke:

"I ...... Probably won't stay. ”

The third uncle didn't seem surprised by this answer, and even seemed to be very happy, grinning with a smile.

"Third uncle, what are you laughing at?" Zhou Ping asked suspiciously.

"Actually, if you say you want to stay, I'll be a little disappointed." The third uncle said with a smile, "Stay, it means that your life is only this local restaurant, and I, an old man who is almost fifty years old...... Your circle is too small, and that's not a good thing.

On the contrary, if you choose to leave, it means that you have found a better place for you than this small local restaurant, and there is ...... It allows you to shine your own light.

Zhou Ping, you have grown. ”

Looking at the third uncle's gaze, Zhou Ping was stunned.

He pursed his lips slightly, got up from his chair, and bowed deeply to the old man who had raised him with his own hands.

"Thank you, third uncle."

"Don't thank me, I just did what an elder should do."

The third uncle also stood up, waved his hand casually, put away the empty dishes and chopsticks in front of Zhou Ping, and walked towards the back kitchen, "I will wash the bowls in the future, you ...... It's time to go where you belong.

When you get tired one day, come back again, and the third uncle will cook for you. ”

After speaking, the figure of the third uncle disappeared behind the curtain in the back kitchen.

Zhou Ping looked at his departing back, and after a long time, he slowly turned around, and finally took a second look at this small old restaurant.

He pushed the door open.

……

Kamikyo City.

Night's Watch Headquarters.

"What? Ye Fan sits?! ”

On the empty conference table, a high-ranking night watchman received the news and stood up from his chair in shock!

Several other high-level executives were also shocked, and they were stunned for a long time before they came to their senses and began to discuss like crazy.

"Why did Ye Fan suddenly sit down? This ......"

"I don't know, without the slightest warning...... Was it injured in the South China Sea against the Outer Gods? ”

"Why didn't he say it?"

"It's too sudden, a human ceiling, how can it be ......"

"Indeed, there is simply no time left for us to prepare."

"As soon as Commander Ye leaves like this, who will take over the position of the commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch?"

"Hou Hou, the champion who founded the Suppression of Evil Division, made a rule that if you don't become a human ceiling, you can't become the head of the department...... But the current night watchman, there has not yet been a second ceiling-level powerhouse......"

"Acting commanders can only be elected from the top."

Shao Pingge sat on the side, listening to the conversation between several other high-level executives, and only felt that his mind was a little trance.

Ye Fan...... Sitting?

So far, he has not been able to come out of the shock brought by this news.

He is Ye Fan's junior, who was able to go from an ordinary night watchman to the top step by step, and became the head of the General Personnel Department and the head of the national night watch team, which was also carried by Ye Fan.

Ye Fan has the grace of knowing him.

And now...... He's dead?

He couldn't listen to a word of the discussion between many high-level leaders, he was like a sculpture sitting on the side, motionless.

There is another young high-level like him, what they all have in common is that they were brought up step by step by Ye Fan, and those who argued endlessly for the acting commander-in-chief were mostly leftovers from the previous era, the senior leaders of the older generation.

Just when everyone was arguing, Zuo Qing pushed the door in.

He changed into the night watchman's cloak and walked straight to the front of the conference table, his eyes calmly scanning the noisy conference room, slamming the papers in his hands on the table.

Bang——!

The conference room fell silent.

"Zuo Qing, what are you doing here?" A senior asked with a frown.

Zuo Qing glanced at him and said calmly: "From today onwards, I will temporarily assume the position of commander-in-chief of the night watch, and I will be fully responsible for all the affairs of the night watchman before the ceiling of the second night watchman appears." ”

Hearing this, the brows of those senior executives of the older generation suddenly furrowed.

"Zuo Qing, have you only been promoted to the top for a few years? Now he is temporarily in charge of the post of Commander-in-Chief...... It's too early, right? ”

"Before Commander Ye sat down, he left a document designating the election of the deputy commander-in-chief, if you are skeptical about this resolution, you can read it yourself." Zuo Qing took out a document and handed it to the top officials.

Several high-level officials took the document and read it carefully, their brows furrowed even tighter.

And the other two young high-level leaders, including Shao Pingge, didn't look at the document at all, they were all people around Ye Fan, and naturally knew that Ye Fan had cultivated Zuo Qing as the next commander, and it was not surprising that there was this decision at this moment.

After confirming the authenticity of this document, the high-level officials sighed helplessly and sat back silently.

Since the document left by Ye Fan specifies Zuo Qing's acting identity, then they naturally have nothing to oppose, in the final analysis, they are all night watchmen and need to act according to the charter.

But there is one high-level who does not stop there.

It was a man in his fifties, he held this document in his hand, and with a slight sweep of his eyes, he sneered and said:

"You forged this document."

Hearing this, the faces of everyone present changed.

Zuo Qing's eyes were extremely cold.

"He Xingwen, do you know what you're talking about?" Beside him, another senior said with a frown.

"What? Isn't that possible? He Xingwen sprinkled this document on the table, looked into Zuo Qing's eyes, and slowly spoke, "Zuo Qing and Ye Fan are so close, it is not difficult to get Ye Fan's private seal, which of you can prove that this document was written by Ye Fan?" ”

His words fell, and the brows of Shao Pingge and the other young high-level officials furrowed at the same time.

The other high-level officials, with a glint in their eyes, seemed to be thinking about something, and were obviously a little shaken.

Zuo Qing stared at his eyes and said in a cold voice, "How do you want me to prove it?" ”

"I don't care how you prove it, but if you can't come up with strong evidence, then this document will naturally have no effect." He Xingwen said lightly, "Without this document, the candidate for the commander-in-chief's acting can only be elected through high-level voting." ”

Among the seven high-level people present, only Shao Pingge, Zuo Qing, and another young high-level were originally promoted by Ye Fan, and if the other three high-level officials were moved by He Xingwen and voted for the election, the situation would be very unfavorable to them.

The atmosphere of the entire conference room suddenly froze.

At that moment, the door to the conference room was suddenly pushed open.

Everyone was stunned, and at the same time turned their heads to look at the black-shirted figure who walked in, and a look of shock appeared in their eyes.

He's not......

The black-shirted figure calmly walked to the conference table, stretched out his hand and pulled out the [Dragon Elephant Sword] from the void, and inserted it in the center of the conference room!

Ding——!

The sword is aura.

The black-shirted figure stood there, his eyes swept over everyone, and he said lightly:

"I recommend Zuo Qing to be the acting commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch, you ...... Who is against? ”
