13 Mink Street

Karen picked up the cup with his right hand and took a sip of ice water. He picked up the bracelet with his left hand and played with it gently. There was a lot of floc inside and it was not moist at all.

This means that the craftsmen who built it only focused on arranging the formation, but ignored its beauty. Of course, the technical level may not be up to it.

This thing is very valuable. After all, it is not disposable and can be recycled many times through warm maintenance. It is not cheap, but for Karen, it is not of much use.

Firstly, because he has accumulated a lot of experience and does not care about the cost of setting up a simple barrier; secondly, although his own formation level has not reached the level of a master, he relies on Mr. Huofen's formation notes and the "Key to the Rubik's Cube". With blessing, it can at least be considered an excellent one.

But after all, this was a gift from Neo to him. Taking it back would be a disgrace to Neo, and Neo would definitely be angry.

So Karen put the bracelet in her desk drawer, planning to give it away when the time was right.

Across the desk, Neo held a lit cigarette in his hand and kept spitting out his loneliness.

He had been acting like this since dinner.

"Tell me, how long has it been? You were here too, right? We met for the first time. At that time, I disguised myself as a clerk and came to take a look at the follow-up of the Qihe case. Then I brought you into my team. Finally, In the beginning you are just a non-staff member.

Now, you can be on an equal footing with me. "

Karen corrected: "I am the director of the first office, and you are the director of the second office. Strictly speaking, I am half a body ahead of you."

Neo: "..."

Karen picked up the fragment of the scroll and did not rush to try to enter his consciousness. Instead, he observed its structural details. Its damage was not on the outside, but on the inside. This damage was almost irreparable, because repairing it The difficulty is one level higher than the difficulty of making it.

but……

Karen suddenly recalled the re-forging of his wings. He seemed to have the conditions to repair them. After all, he had a genius cat and an evil dog at home.

"Forget it, I admit it, you are young and have a pretty face."

"What does this have to do with whether you have a good-looking face?" Karen laughed, "You have no face."

"I said, your family background is so amazing, isn't it?"

"A good family background means greatness. This is something I have no choice about. When I opened my eyes, the evil god adjusted my body. When I opened my eyes, I saw Dis. The first period of time after opening my eyes , I was quite not used to my appearance, and now I feel very ordinary."

Karen stretched. He liked the feeling of his friends mocking him when something "unfortunate" happened to him. Back on Darkmoon Island, Neo had often teased him about Ophelia's incident.

This kind of happiness is actually the same.

Neo picked up his glass of ice water and pretended to throw it at Karen.

Karen smiled.

Neo took back his hand and took a big sip, chewing the ice cubes in his mouth and making a "bang-bang-bang" sound.

"Actually, it's not that different. You're still my boss. We can keep everything the same, and I'm too lazy to change."

This is what Karen says from his heart, not a perfunctory one.

He learned a lot from Neo, and if you don't look at Neo's operations that are deliberately looking for fun, his layout ability and ability to seize opportunities are really beyond words.

In fact, I happened to step on a rhythm point of Neo's. He had been lost for ten years and had been wasting his time in Sampu City. When he was ready to be transferred to York City, he "got on the train".

Due to his own reasons, Neo's promotion was much faster, but even without him, Neo's development would not be bad, because he has the wisdom blessing of two people.

“In the last investigation group, Bernie was the one who pulled the strings, and I was responsible for pulling people in. You took your team with me on a political adventure, and then you came back alive after taking the right side.

From Bernie to me to you and your team, they all relied on that speculation to successfully move up, which can be regarded as a collective promotion.

This promotion is just for you...According to what you said about your experience in the temple, it should be a success. It must be a real signal from the top that you can get this promotion.

Generally speaking, the higher you go, the more sauces you have in one vat.

Judging from Bernie's previous reaction, he was a little embarrassed, because in his view, your forced promotion was not in line with the process habits of him, the district chief, and even those a few levels above.

Only someone in a really high position, who doesn't care about this kind of tacit understanding and process, or what other people in the middle level think, would make such an arrangement. "

Karen asked curiously: "So, what's the use of analyzing these now?"

"Of course it works!" Neo crossed his legs and shook the cigarette ashes on the carpet. "This means that you have truly entered the high-level view, just like you enter a company. Although there are many layers between you, you have been recognized by the directors. I will keep it in my heart forever.”

"Um."

Neo continued: "Then next, you just need to ensure that your name can always appear in front of the chairman, and your path to promotion will be very smooth.

A real big shot has to pay attention to many things every day. How many little shrimps can he remember? Sometimes when making personnel arrangements, he will choose the little shrimps who have an impression in his mind and pretend that he is familiar with the following situation. look like. "

Karen responded: "Yes, I feel honored to be a little shrimp."

"You kid have already thought about this level, haven't you? Otherwise, why would you let your grandfather pretend to be Rasma and step on that guy when the people from the temple were checking your consciousness space?"

Karen shook his head and replied honestly: "I didn't think so much at the time. It was mainly because Rasma reminded me."

"People will choose the best path for themselves based on instinct." Neo shrugged, then his expression became serious, and he knocked his knuckles on the table and said, "So, in the next big purge operation, you must Be high-profile, high-profile, and high-profile!”

Neo stood up, supported the desk with both hands, and looked at Karen: "The seesaw is already under your feet. The harder you step on it, the higher it will bounce for you.

Dry!

If I hadn't known it was impossible, I would have suspected that the assassin was you pretending to be. "

"That's ridiculous."

"You pretended to be an assassin, and then pretended to kill the assassin. You set up a theater for yourself. Then you only need to perform hard to draw political capital and get a quick promotion channel."

Karen frowned slightly and said, "What you said makes sense."

"Of course, it can also be understood that it was done by someone from our Whip of Order in order to further open up the situation, haha."

Karen shook his head: "Impossible."

"Of course it's impossible. It's impossible for the higher-ups to do this kind of thing, and they won't go to this step. Otherwise, the rules will be completely broken. Then everyone will teach each other to assassinate each other.

It can only be said that... the assassin's assassination operation was not completely completed, maybe only half of it.

No, even if he has completed ninety-nine percent of it, he may be just short of the last percent.

I suspect that after the assassination, he will leave some traces and evidence, conduct a semi-public misdirection, and create a whirlpool of contradictions between theistic religions.

But he saw your cat, and then he hugged your cat and ran back to your hometown like a fool.

The most ridiculous thing is that he actually let your dog go without catching it! "

Yes, the assassin only had eyes for the bright finger in Pu'er's tail, but that was a relic of God after all, how could it compare to a living god.

In terms of value, Kevin is definitely a priceless dog.

Neo continued: "He used the power of sand, but it was too obvious. It was so obvious that normal people wouldn't think it was the Desert God Cult. I can only say that he didn't finish the work, but he helped you lay it." Road, alas, I’m very busy down there again.”

Karen said: "Thank you for your hard work."

Although he was pushed out to the position of second office director, Neo knew very well that he still had to take the lead in making the specific plan for the next action.

In the past, Karen had dared to be blatantly lazy when he was his subordinate. There was no reason why he would become more diligent when he became the same level.

To be honest, if it was not Karen but someone else who took over his position and picked the peach, then Neo should be planning how to defeat that guy now;

Just because it was Karen, he, Neo, had to continue to help others make plans while sulking.

"This major purge with the cooperation of the chief, as long as it can be successfully completed and achieve results, momentum and influence, then our district chief should be able to be transferred to the headquarters of the Dingge District. The position of the district chief should be held by Bernie will take his place.

On this matter, the two of them have already had a tacit understanding. The relationship between the district chief and Bernie is the same as that between me and you.

Therefore, if you put a kind of sauce in one tank and everyone changes the tank collectively, you will have the opportunity to be promoted to minister again and replace Bernie's position. "

"You can do it too," Karen said. "There are quite a lot of positions for regional ministers. I saw them during the last meeting. They can sit around a round table."

Neo sighed deliberately: "But Bernie only leaves one tank, what should we do?"

Karen replied: "Didn't the minister join forces with the Naton family last time? It's impossible for everyone else's butts to be clean, so let's knock down one of them and let him free up his position.

This is originally a rule. It is impossible to sweep away a lot of people from the regional management office. None of my own people will stay here, but one or two will always be moved to show off. "

Neo smiled and said: "In the past, I was usually the one to say this kind of thing."

"I'm afraid you will be wronged." Karen smiled.

"Okay, I have received your message, my first office director."

"You're welcome, my second chief of staff."

"Haha. By the way, after your position is promoted, your subordinate position can also be promoted. What did you think of your original position of captain and deputy director?"

"I plan to give the position of captain to Muri, and the position of deputy director to Alfred."

"Vic and Leon, you won't give them to either?"

"Vic's situation is a bit special. He actually misunderstood his situation. I suspect that even if he does nothing, the high priest will promote him after a few years to stabilize the situation. He is the one who really cares about the big shot. heart.

As for Leon, I don't want to give him the feeling of a transaction. He is under a lot of pressure now. I think he himself would rather continue to be a small player.

Anyway, the group is here, and the transfer of positions is not that important. "

"There are two secretary positions available in the office. I want to transfer Bimo and Fanni to my place."

"You mean to let the two of them be my secretaries?"

"Um."

"That's a good suggestion, I will arrange it this way."

"Okay, I'll leave first. I think since the three people have met during the day, things must have started. Believe it or not, when I go back, my desk should have been put New and extremely detailed reporting materials were obtained.”

Karen reminded: "It's my desk."

"Dry!"

…

After Neo left, Karen walked into the bedroom and did not see Pu'er on the bed. When he came to the kennel in the next room, he saw Pu'er sleeping on the mat inside the kennel, while Kevin slept outside the kennel and guarded Pu'er.

When he and Mr. Auggie returned home, Kevin didn't hesitate to speak;

Moreover, Karen learned from Pu'er's narration that Kevin was originally intended to be captured by the assassin in Pu'er's place.

After what happened that night, the relationship between Pu'er and Kevin was further deepened. As the eldest lady, Pu'er used this way to express her feelings.

Karen's arrival woke Kevin up. He first looked at Karen, and then at Pu'er who had occupied his "bed". His eyes were filled with doting on his sister.

Karen placed the fragment in front of Kevin and whispered: "Take a look and see if you can help me restore it."

Kevin stretched out the dog's paw, pulled it in front of him, smiled at Karen, and then pointed at Pu'er, indicating that Pu'er could also help with this matter.

"Just watch and do it. It doesn't matter if you don't get it right."

At this time, the desk bell rang from the study.

Karen walked back to the study, and Alfred opened the study door: "Master, that guy from the Crypt Cult is here again."

"Let him in."

"Yes, Master."

After Gus sat down with Wofulun and the others, he left obediently, but now it was late at night, and he came again.

Soon, Gus came in, looking a little more humble than when they first met.

This must be because he witnessed the attitude of the two bishops towards him, so his position in his heart was greatly improved. He didn't even call himself captain but directly addressed him:

"Master Cullen, good evening."

"sit down."

"OK, thanks."

"What else do you want?" Karen asked directly.

"It's what I told you during the day." Gus stretched out his hand, and the palm that was originally like an ordinary person instantly turned into white bones. A blue light flashed. The white bones held a black dagger in their hands, with a sharp aura. It flowed out all at once.

Gus, however, turned the dagger on himself.

"My strength is actually very good. If you are willing to form a teaching partner with me, I will definitely not let you down."

Gus was like a salesman who came in the afternoon and failed to sell, then came back in the evening, and the product he was selling was still himself.

"I'm curious, what are the benefits to you of forming a partner with me?"

"resource.

This is a tradition between the two religions of Order and Crypt concluded by the great Lord Tiranus himself. Of course, the Cult of Order is the main one and the Cult of Crypt is the supplementary one.

In fact, the gap between the Crypt Cult and the Cult of Order is really huge.

If the Cult of Kosmos is compared to a big tree, then the Cult of the Crypt is a flower attached to the tree? Even grass. "

Karen changed his sitting position. He did not take this sentence for granted as a pagan's praise of the Cult of Kosmos.

Because the roots of big trees are wide and deep, they will rob nearby nutrients. The Crypt Cult... is actually the target of being robbed.

The relationship between Auggie and the whip holder is not on equal terms, or even superior or subordinate, but more like...slavery and pet.

"If I reach a partnership with you, I will be able to obtain corresponding resources from the Cult of Kosmos. The level of this resource is determined based on your location.

As for believers of the Crypt Cult, if we want to improve our strength, we often need many times more resources than ordinary human believers. "

"Then why do many people from the Whip of Order around me not have partners from the Crypt Cult?"

"Firstly, it requires application, mainly because the Cult of Order is very strict about this quota; secondly, the Whip of Order adults who are eligible to apply often have enough subordinates around them, so they do not need this kind of quota. Partner; thirdly, our adults in the Crypt Cult are generally unwilling to enter into such a partnership."

Karen finally understood that unlike the Principle God Cult, which was the reciprocal and equal relationship between himself and Xin Yali, the Crypt God Cult was actually a prostituted serf.

The outstanding people on both sides do not need each other, and the people who do need them are often not outstanding and cannot get this quota.

It is not a very fun thing to keep a monster or a strange monster by your side. It is not as simple as taking it out for a ride with dignity. You also have to bear the risk of it getting lost or going berserk;

For the other party, as long as he can live well, who is willing to be a slave?

Therefore, Auggie should have formed a partnership with Foden very early or in his childhood. After growing up relying on the resources given by the Cult of Kosmos, he just wanted to have enough to eat and drink and ran away.

Such a big frost dragon requires such terrible resources to grow. As Pu'er said, his family can't even afford just eating, drinking and eating.

It seemed that Rasma had clearly seen Ogi's little thoughts that night. As the former high priest, how could he watch the church's assets disappear in front of him?

Gus should be the kind of person who is more enterprising, but is not doing well now, so he came specifically to find himself, a young potential stock.

but……

He already has two pets at home, and Karen has no interest in getting another skeleton to keep at home. He runs a funeral club, not a zoo.

In addition, his team members are talented in all aspects, and there is no need for him.

And one thing he definitely didn't say on purpose was that after the Whip of Order formed a partnership, they would definitely pay a certain price. It wasn't worth it for him.

"I'm sorry." Karen shook his head and chose the simplest refusal, "I haven't considered this for the time being."

Gus's eyes dimmed instantly. He stood up and bowed to Karen:

"excuse me."

"It's okay. You can come over for tea when you are free. We can be friends."

"Okay, thank you. You are a very... very good person." Gus was a little touched. He originally thought that Karen, who had made so many achievements at such a young age, should be the kind of arrogant person. .

And such people are often not very polite, so although he knew it was just a scene, Gus's touch was real.

Well, what Gus didn't know was that Mr. Dallis, the last person to have tea with Karen, evaporated when he came for tea.

"By the way, have you had dinner?"

"Sir, I don't need to eat food. I rely on some dark substances to sustain my life."

“But good food can do more than just fill your stomach. You can taste it, and you should still have it in the kitchen.”

"No, sir, thank you, next time, next time."

"okay."

"Goodbye, my lord."

"goodbye."

Gus walked out of the study and left.

Karen rubbed his neck. He was going to take a shower and go to bed. It was foreseeable that tomorrow would be an extremely busy day, no, it was the beginning of a busy day.

But when Karen was about to get up and walk to the bedroom, Alfred opened the door.

"Master, he is back again."

"Um?"

"After I sent him out, he said he wanted to see you again."

Karen sighed, hesitated, and nodded: "Let him come in."

"Yes, Master."

Gus came in again. He seemed to have made up his mind. He walked up to Karen and asked seriously:

"Sir, do you want it?"

"What?"

Gus' tone became very urgent: "Do you want to?"

"You should at least tell me what it is so I can answer you whether I want it or not."

Gus's breath became thicker,

asked:

"Sir, do you want to raise a dragon?"
