Chapter 212: They are already an old married couple but are still so shy
Chapter 212: They are already an old married couple but are still so shy
Unlike Lu Yan who was worried, Russell felt slightly relieved.
After what happened today, the probability of him being exposed by Zeng Bo is probably much smaller.
But if you really want to completely separate the two identities, the key is to create the man with hairspray hands.
What's more, that person was originally in his production plan.
After all, this series of cards is also related to his subsequent diamond-level trump cards.
Putting aside the vest issue, Russell immediately began to think about Li Shuo's strange behavior just now: "He obviously had other cards, why didn't he use them at the beginning?"
According to Russell's personality, he would most likely keep one or two cards as trump cards, but it is absolutely impossible for him to use only one card.
The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength.
Just now, only Spider-Girl went into battle because this was the only card he could use under his Qilinghui alias.
If he wants to use other cards, he has to wait until Zoro advances and digests the remaining two materials given to him by Kingpin.
So either Li Shuo was very arrogant and thought he could play cat and mouse with Russell, so he only used Dangun.
"Or he has limitations."
Thinking back to the character shown by the other party, Russell was a little unsure which possibility it was.
Without any clue, he could only suppress his doubts in his heart.
"Forget it. We should have hurt them enough tonight. They shouldn't make any more noise in the short term."
He was referring to the two forces: the Qiling Society and the Guiyi Sect.
Needless to say, the Guiyi Sect suffered heavy casualties at the hands of Spider Girl.
At least the people Li Shuo brought were.
As for the Begging Spirits Association.
Before Russell showed up, there were many casualties in the fight with Guiyi Sect. It is unlikely that Gu Wu will issue any tasks immediately afterwards.
Thinking of Gu Wu, Russell thought for a moment and took out the [Kangtao Intelligent Central Communication Tool·Sub-machine] and decided to contact the other party.
Of course, to be on the safe side, Misaka Mikoto was called out by him at this time.
After all, cards will reset their status. Although the brown-haired girl exerted influence on the [sub-machine] last time, who knows if it has been reset.
As for Spider-Girl, she naturally used the detection skills coordinated by [Ruler·Wisdom] to prevent any strangers from approaching.
However, Russell was already far away from Donglai at this time, and was in the wilderness. Even if there was someone, it was more likely that he was an illegal card maker.
【Six: Fifth brother, are you there? 】
He typed a few words with an expressionless face, and did not feel the slightest bit uncomfortable with calling Gu Wu that.
The last time he was in Shanghai, he realized that Gu Wu should be an Emerald-level card maker, much stronger than he is now.
A momentary bow is nothing.
However, Russell also did not forget the scene when the other party initially coerced and bribed him to join the Begging Society.
One day, he will settle this account with Gu Wu.
【Five: Say.】
Seeing the other party replying to him, Russell reported the situation of Donglai slowly.
The communicator fell silent, but Russell was not in a hurry.
There was still some time before dawn, so he could wait.
It took a while for Gu Wu to send a message.
【Five: I understand.】
[Five: A batch of contracts will be sent to you soon, so you can absorb some fresh blood.]
[Five: If you are afraid of being exposed, let your subordinates do it.]
[Five: In addition, there is a batch of materials, you can distribute them yourself.]
【Five: I will inform you if there are other actions.】
Russell's heart skipped a beat when he saw Gu Wu's message, but he suppressed his joy and replied.
【Six: I understand. Sorry to bother you, Brother Five.】
Gu Wu did not reply to the message, and Russell did not take it seriously and took the sub-machine back.
Then he turned to look at Misaka Mikoto: "How is it? Did you find anything?"
Misaka Mikoto put her hands in the pockets of her cartoon frog sweatshirt and held a coconut lollipop in her mouth: "The phone just now activated the front camera, so it should be recording the picture."
"And Russell, your other recent communications have also been read."
"Because there is no sensitive information, I did not block the modification."
Russell remained calm when he heard this: "Just as I expected, this thing has some surveillance capabilities."
But compared to this, he is more concerned about the message just sent by Gu Wu.
"Absorbing fresh blood?"
The meaning of Gu Wu's words clearly shows that Russell has natural discretion.
It's not just the fresh blood candidates, but also the batch of materials that are sent along.
"Sure enough, even if it is the Begging Spirit Society, they would not just let the horse run without giving it meat to eat."
Russell would definitely pick out the parts of these materials that are useful to him. After all, it would be a waste not to take advantage of the Qi Ling Society.
Besides, didn’t he also rescue a group of members of the Begging Spirit Society?
After finishing the task at hand, he turned his attention to the middle school student and the spider who were interacting nearby.
As Spider-Girl's teammate, Misaka Mikoto naturally saw Spider-Girl's beautified version, so she didn't find her scary.
The brown-haired girl waved a coconut-flavored lollipop in front of Spider-Girl. "Want some?"
"I want to eat! As long as Misaka-sama gives me food, I will be your most loyal lackey from now on. Spider!"
Misaka Mikoto opened the package and stuffed it into Spider-Ko's mouth.
Seeing this, Russell sighed helplessly: "Speaking of which, Spider-girl, did you find out any other information just now?"
"Gulp." Spider-Girl moved the lollipop from the left side of her mouth to the right side. "Of course, Russell, don't underestimate me, Mr. Spider!"
"But that uncle ran too fast, so a lot of card information was not identified."
As she spoke, she shared the information with Russell.
----
[Name: Li Shuo]
[Title: Failed Careerist (Collaborator of Guiyi Sect)]
[Level: Gold]
[Cards held: [Ancestor of the Tranquil Dawn·Dangun], [Lord of the Northern Temple·True Spirit Lord], ??? ? ]
----
"True Spirit Lord?"
"Is there such a person in Goryeo?"
Just as Spider-Girl said, she only detected a name, and with Russell's current knowledge, he couldn't tell whether this was Li Shuo's self-created card or if there really was such a person in Goryeo mythology.
In addition, Spider Girl also identified the information of Zeng Bo and Lu Yan.
Zeng Bo only updated the card information compared to before.
----
【Name: Zeng Bo】
[Title: Director of the Public Security Office of the East Laika Association (Begging Spirit Association minion)]
[Level: Gold]
[Holding cards: [The Lord of Scales and Shells·Turtle], ??? ? ]
----
Russell was not surprised considering the abilities Zeng Bo had demonstrated before.
As for Lü Yan
----
【Name: Lv Yan】
[Title: The Addict of Contradiction]
[Level: Gold]
[Holding card: ???]
----
"This title" Russell frowned slightly. He couldn't figure out what Lu Yan's title meant for a moment. There is no doubt that the title of each person identified by Spider-Girl is related to his or her identity.
Just like Li Shuo's [The Failed Careerist].
But he really couldn't understand the title of Lu Yan.
"Forget it, why should I bother about this?"
After a moment, Russell let out a sigh of relief and gave up exploring further.
At this time, the sky was already slightly bright.
"It's almost time to go back."
"President, this is the situation."
In the Donglaika Master Association, Lu Yan and Zeng Bo were standing side by side in the president's office.
Sima Huai's expression at this time seemed to be a little doubtful about life: "You mean to say that Guiyi Sect and Qiling Society have masters who have never appeared before in Donglai?"
It's no wonder that he had that expression. After all, when he secretly contacted the Guiyi Sect before, the person who contacted him was a gold-level limb-replacing demon.
He really didn't know the existence of Li Shuo.
As for the Begging Spirit Society, Lu Xi had never heard of it.
Thinking of this, he laughed out of anger: "When did Donglai become so popular that everyone rushed to join us."
"Then, President, should we ask for help from above?" Lu Yan asked hesitantly, "It seems that these two families have been restless recently."
“I always felt like something was wrong.”
Lu Yan's words were like a bucket of ice water that instantly cooled Sima Huai's heart, and his originally angry mood calmed down.
He stroked his chin and looked like he was thinking.
After a while, Sima Huaicai said in a low voice: "I will think about it carefully, and I will ask for help from above when necessary."
Hearing this, Lu Yan's serious expression suddenly relaxed.
Only Zeng Bo glanced at Sima Huai silently. Based on his understanding of the other party, Lu Yan's proposal was probably stillborn.
And just as he thought, Sima Huai did not intend to do so.
"What if the people above find out my connection with the Guiyi Sect?"
By then, not to mention being transferred to the inland to act tyrannically, even whether you can retire peacefully will be a problem.
As for the fact that he was transferred from Donglai and returned to Yijiao and then exposed the matter again.
By then, he would have completed his mission and the masters would have protected him.
At worst, we'll all die together and face the wrath of Yama together.
"boom!"
Just at this moment, the office door was pushed open with great force.
Russell strode in with a heavy face: "Sorry, I'm back late."
"What's going on now?"
Seeing Russell, Sima Huai's eyes twitched a few times.
Originally, he should have taken this opportunity to ask the other party why he neglected his duties.
But I remembered the reason he gave was that he was going back to Nandu to see his senior sister.
Russell's senior sister, Gugua Laotao, is a diamond-level card maker.
In addition, he had already reported in advance before departure, so Sima Huai had no confidence to blame Russell.
After thinking about it, the president of the East Leica Association decided to swallow his anger for the time being.
He closed his eyes tiredly.
"There's nothing wrong now."
"Let Director Lu tell you the details."
As he spoke, Sima Huai waved his hand and signaled the three of them to go to Russell's office to talk.
After leaving the office, Zeng Bo acted as cold as when he first met Russell: "Vice President Luo, I still need to deal with the aftermath, so I'll take my leave first."
After saying this, he left without even looking at Russell's reaction.
Lu Yan was a little confused at this time: "What's wrong with this old Zeng? Wasn't he quite flattering during the last mission?"
"Did you take gunpowder today?"
Thinking of this, he secretly looked at the vice president beside him.
However, the imagined anger did not appear on the other person's face. Russell just pushed open the door of his office calmly and said, "Please come in, Director Lu."
Seeing this, Lu Yan quickly cleared up the random thoughts in his mind and followed Russell into the vice president's office.
Looking at Lu Yan who was narrating what happened tonight with a serious face in front of him, Russell was thinking about other things with an expressionless face.
After a long time, Lu Yan's voice gradually disappeared.
"Vice President, I'm done."
"Thank you for your hard work. Director Lu, you should go back and rest early." Russell nodded and brought his thoughts back to reality.
"Yes."
Watching the tall figure of the middle-aged man disappear into the room, Russell let out a long sigh: "What are you talking about?"
As an eyewitness at the scene, he knew many more details than Lu Yan.
Looking at the sky outside the window which was already completely bright, Russell summoned Fubuki.
I'll have to trouble the hardworking Fubuki-chan to take care of today's official duties.
In fact, Unohana Retsu should be good at handling official business, after all, he is the captain of the fourth division.
However, considering that the Hero Association in One Punch Man and the Card Master Association of Blue Star have some similarities, Russell decided to give it to Fubuki.
Russell stood behind him and pinched his shoulder, which felt very good. "I'll leave it to you. I'll take a break."
Fubuki pushed Russell to the sofa in the reception room as if he was chasing away a fly, and then he lowered his head to deal with the matters that had accumulated over the past few days.
After a while, hearing the young man's breathing gradually become steady, Fubuki raised her head and glanced at her holder.
Seeing that Russell had closed his eyes and fell asleep, the black-haired lady's originally sharp eyebrows could not help but soften: "Really?"
When Russell woke up again, it was already evening.
He slept until the end of the working day.
But it’s no wonder that Russell is so tired. After all, he has not stopped for the past few days.
After arriving in Nandu, he went straight to the secret realm in Shanghai to obtain the materials he needed, and then returned to Donglai to meet Zeng Bo as soon as he finished making the card.
As a result, not long after the meeting with Zeng Bo, Guiyi Sect started causing trouble again.
He was running around like a fireman.
At this time, Fubuki's slender white fingers were spinning a black signing pen out of boredom: "Awake?"
"Here are some documents you need to sign. I've sorted them out."
"I have also marked some of the documents that are not reasonable. You can just return them and have your subordinates redo them."
Russell stretched his muscles slightly: "Luckily I have you."
Hearing this, Fubuki couldn't help but rolled her eyes at Russell and threw the black pen in her hand at him.
Russell took the pen, chuckled, and signed his name on the document swiftly.
After doing all this, he kissed the beautiful woman's smooth face at lightning speed, and then took the kiss back as her face gradually blushed.
Speaking of which, even though many of Russell's sisters have already had Pokémon battles with him, he still acts so shy sometimes.
But a girl's feelings are always poetic, and Russell can understand that.
The lights went out and the office fell silent again.
"go home."
Just as Russell had expected, there was no further trouble in the Guiyi Church for some time afterwards.
As for the Qi Ling Society, it would be even more impossible for them to take any action without his orders.
The peaceful days were broken until Unohana Retsu handed a document to Russell.
Although Fubuki is more suitable to handle official duties on behalf of Russell, he will not grab someone just for fun.
After all, he is not a black-hearted capitalist.
As Russell opened the document handed to him by the gentle beauty, his face suddenly became solemn.
"'Risk Assessment Document on the Newly Emerged Secret Realm in Laiyang County, Donglai'."
