Jiulong's death caused quite a shock within Amalgam.
Although the people at the bottom didn't feel much about it, there was a strong reaction among the cadres and above.
Although Jiulong is too bloodthirsty, he is very capable after all, and he is also a candidate for executive officer.
Such a person, regardless of whether he was big or small, could be considered very important within the organization, but he died in a ravine in Hermakistan. I heard that he didn't even leave his ashes.
Afterwards, Amalgam's intelligence personnel conducted a preliminary investigation, and based on the intelligence provided by the Hermakistan government forces, they confirmed that Mithril's combat troops were involved, and even confirmed that Mithril's Lambda drive-carrying machine was involved.
So at first everyone within the organization thought that Kowloon died in the hands of Mithril, and the nuclear bomb was taken away by Mithril's troops.
But soon after, important news came back from Amalgam's intelligence agents lurking inside Mithril.
According to the mission briefing of the survivors who participated in this operation, Mithril did not obtain the nuclear bomb at all, and Kowloon was not killed by Mithril.
Immediately afterwards, the intelligence search was restarted, and Li Boyong's traces were exposed to intelligence personnel.
This is inevitable. Li Boyong is also a candidate CEO of Amalgam, and his whereabouts are not difficult to trace.
Just before the incident, Li Boyong's appearance in the capital of Ankrastan was enough for investigators to place suspicion on him.
After all, Ankrastan is right next door to Hermakistan, and during the entire nuclear bomb seizure incident, Li Boyong did leave traces in Hermakistan.
There is clear evidence that a third party attacked the regular army of Hermakistan at that time.
However, the things that can be investigated only stop here.
There could not be more conclusive evidence...
Anyone with a discerning eye can guess that it was Li Boyong who killed Jiulong, but what can be done to him?
Would he still admit it personally?
Are people in the cadre class willing to offend a living candidate CEO for the sake of a dead candidate CEO?
As for those in the executive class, after all, it is just a dog-eat-dog battle among the candidates. With one less candidate, aren't these people who are currently in their positions relieved?
What's more, there are people who want to take the opportunity to suppress Li Boyong, and naturally there are also people who want to win over Li Boyong. At least Lord Mallory rarely expressed his support for Li Boyong in a tough manner.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
Leonard, who does not take it too seriously to watch the excitement, also expressed his support for Li Boyong.
The Supreme Council, where opinions were divided, was unable to judge whether Li Boyong had betrayed the organization.
In the end, the matter ended like this, but in the eyes of those who were hostile to Li Boyong, Li Boyong, the candidate CEO, already posed a sufficient threat.
And Li Boyong, who successfully killed Jiulong, officially showed his cards to the Xia sisters afterwards.
"The teacher is dead..."
Sister Yufang showed such a rich expression on her face for the first time after hearing Li Boyong personally admit that he had killed Jiulong.
Shock, confusion, anger, and a bit of relief...
"Why?"
She didn't clamor for revenge for her teacher, she just forced herself to calm down and asked.
As for what the "why" question meant, and what kind of answer she wanted to hear from Li Boyong, Yufang had no idea at all.
Indeed, Kowloon adopted the two sisters, who were in despair at the time, and taught them the skills to survive in the industry.
From this point of view, it can be said that Kowloon is as grateful as a mountain to the two sisters.
But at the same time, Kowloon has also trained them to be emotionless tools. I don't know how many dirty things they have used the two sisters to do over the years.
If Li Boyong hadn't appeared, Yufang and Yulan wouldn't have thought there was anything wrong with being a tool.
Because in their world, the only way to live is to listen to the teacher.
But Li Boyong just showed up like this, always instilling some strange ideas when getting along, and never treated them as tools.
Over time, a trace of humanity began to revive in the hearts of the Xia sisters.
That's why when Li Boyong and Jiulong met for the first time in Tokyo, Jiulong complained to Li Boyong about the Xia sisters.
After that, through Wang Lumei's guidance, the Xia sisters also realized something.
As they gradually return to their human form, they suddenly realize that if they want to get rid of their status as tool humans, Teacher Jiulong is an insurmountable shackle.
If the Xia sisters only relied on them, they probably would not be able to break this shackles for the rest of their lives. This shackles should not exist in the pressure of reality, but also in the hearts of the two sisters.
However, Li Boyong killed Jiulong just like that, and the shackles were broken...
But the world of the Xia sisters also collapsed...
"It's nothing. It can only be said to be a conflict of interest, and he failed to defeat me." Li Boyong shrugged and said relaxedly: "This is a common thing in the industry, isn't it?"
Such an answer and such an explanation are not what Yufang and Yulan want to hear at all.
"What's wrong?" Li Boyong asked, "Do you want to kill me to avenge your teacher?"
My sister Yulan clenched her fists tightly when she heard this, but suddenly froze.
Revenge for the teacher...
But how much affection do they have for their teachers?
For them, teachers can be everything in the world, but they can also be meaningless.
The teacher is dead...
After losing their teacher and their master who gave orders, the Xia sisters, who were raised to be loyal dogs, didn't know what to do.
Moreover, this kind of thing is just a common thing in the industry, and revenge is meaningless.
"What are you going to do with us?"
After a long silence, Yu Lan asked such a question.
They are the disciples of Jiulong and the adopted daughters of Jiulong. It is not unimaginable if Li Boyong, who is now the candidate for CEO, wants to eradicate the roots.
"It depends on your answer." Li Boyong said.
The Xia sisters looked at each other, and for the first time they both showed confusion.
No answer?
Seeing this situation, Li Boyong let out a long sigh. After losing his master, did the puppet even lose its basic self-judgment?
"Since Jiulong is dead, I will hire you from now on." Li Boyong said in a condescending tone: "From today on, I will be your teacher, and you just need to obey my orders."
Yufang and Yulan looked at each other, knelt down on the ground at the same time, and lowered their heads to Li Boyong, "Yes, teacher!"
It may be a bit absurd, but this is the way of life of tool people.
"Very good, let's start today's first task quickly." Li Boyong clapped his hands happily and said, "Now go to the streets immediately and each of you buy four sets of clothes you like. Listen up, I want you to I think I like it.”
