Upon hearing the master's question, Yuye and Chiye immediately noticed the master's intention.
Yu Ye: Master responded quickly. Why didn’t I think of it? What Shan Luling said just now was very similar to Qing’s situation.
Chiye: Wait! But if that's the case, wouldn't it be possible that "Qing" is an AI or an omnic? That master.
Yuye also knew what it would mean if it was true, and was afraid that the master would not be able to bear the possibility of another physical accident, so he always watched the master carefully.
Fortunately, there was no change in the master's demeanor, but Yuye still noticed that the master had clenched his fists under the table.
Seeing that Ji Qinglin was a little distracted after hearing the reply, Shan Luling reminded him in a low voice:
"Elder Ji?"
"Oh, I'm sorry, I remembered something else. Thank you, President Shan, for answering my questions. To be honest, I always thought that Beixin District was very resistant to contact with the outside world."
Shan Luling explained:
"There is no alliance in Beixin District, but it does not affect the ability to make friends with external members in a private capacity. For us, a group of aliens in the modern cultivation circle, there are not many trustworthy friends. Elder Ji can definitely be counted as one, and I am here today as well. To express my attitude, it may not be appropriate to express my gratitude with yellow and white things for rescuing the dog, so I decided to provide our Beixin District's technical achievements free of charge when Elder Ji needs it to express our gratitude."
Ji Qinglin was thinking about things related to "green", but when he heard Shan Luling's words, he still noticed a problem:
These omnic friends in Beixin District have always been very principled, and the feedback given today was obviously too generous.
"It's okay to make friends, but I wonder if President Shan has other purposes?"
"Mingren don't tell secrets. This time the new life storage box was stolen. I suspect that someone in Beixin District was targeted. Maybe it has something to do with the unknown force on the Internet. The box was stolen by Elder Ji in cooperation with the secret police. I think Elder Ji must have his own way to find it, so I would like to ask Elder Ji to assist in the investigation. If there are any results, I will be grateful."
The box was stolen by Duan Tianpeng, the flying mantis, and Ji Qinglin didn't know if that guy was under the instigation of someone else.
"It's okay to help, but it's not up to me to decide whether there will be any results in investigating this kind of thing."
"As long as Elder Ji is willing to help, I will accept the investigation to any extent."
If it is really related to that powerful virtual force on the Internet, it would be a good time to investigate whether it is the same force that "Qing" was originally afraid of.
Even if there is no result from the investigation, Duan Tianpeng can still be brought out to do business. This favor will not be earned in vain.
"Since President Shan said so, I have no choice but to agree. However, I suspect that the person who stole the box is related to the power on the Internet, so I have to trouble President Shan to share the relevant information with me."
"That's no problem. I'll sort it out and deliver it myself."
"By the way, President Shan, I found some clues about Huangcheng last time I got the box back. I remember Huangcheng is located dozens of kilometers north of Beixin District. Do you know anything about it?"
Shan Luling recalled:
"It's just a deserted city left over from history. Although it was built, it was not as prosperous as Bangkok. Later, Aragami Company bid for a large area of land there. I heard that they were going to build their overseas warehouse, but it never started. I don’t know much about the rest, but the company bidding with them must have done some research and will know better.”
Arakami Company? Tsk, we are really enemies on a narrow road.
"Okay, I will communicate with President Shan at any time when the investigation results are available."
"Excuse me, Elder Ji. I won't disturb you and my apprentice. Take your leave."
After getting up and watching Shan Luling leave with the box, Ji Qinglin finally couldn't suppress the thoughts in his mind and sat down on the chair.
Will it be so? "Qing" is an omnimachine or AI? Is it the same for me?
Won't! My memories of the old days are very solid!
But the scene just described by Shan Luling is too similar to "Qing".
I have never faced that problem head-on before, but now it seems I can’t escape it:
Aren't you human? In other words, am I no longer a human being?
Fortunately, everything is just speculation at the moment! There is no evidence to prove it.
A fleeting thought was like a flare gun fired on the field, and I felt countless thoughts rushing off the track and racing through my brain.
Seeing the master sitting on the chair with his brows furrowed, and his eyes that had always been smiling in the past were now looking blank, Yuye pulled up the chair and sat next to the master and whispered:
"Master?"
Ji Qinglin, who was still thinking about the whole thing, didn't notice Yu Ye's voice.
"Master?"
Then the most important thing next is to go to Huangcheng to investigate. The Beixin District doesn't know about it, so we can only start with a few big companies participating in the bidding. This matter will probably have to trouble Qian Feng.
While he was thinking, Ji Qinglin suddenly felt his cheek being held up by someone's hands. When he came back to his senses, he found Yu Ye looking at him with slightly worried eyebrows.
"Um?"
"I was so startled that I thought Master you had fainted."
Ji Qinglin's expression recovered and the corners of his mouth raised slightly as he said:
"Ha, do you think that Master is just like you and loses consciousness every now and then? But I'm quite curious, Master. How would you deal with emergency situations if you really fainted?"
"Chi Ye said she would seize the opportunity to deceive the master and destroy the ancestor."
Chiye: You idiot!
Ji Qinglin raised his eyebrows and said:
"What about you?"
Seeing that Yu Ye looked a little confused, he didn't know how to answer for a while.
Ji Qinglin leaned forward to follow Yu Ye's hands holding his, sealed Yu Ye's red lips, and swallowed the silky sweet words that were unspoken.
After the kiss ended, looking at Yu Ye who was still a little dazed but whose cheeks were a little red, Ji Qinglin asked:
"If my teacher's condition is abnormal next time, have you learned how to treat it?"
"Huh? Disciple knows."
Chi Ye: Hey, I knew it! Fortunately, I just clicked on the nerve perception sharing. It is said that Master’s kissing skills are much better than yours, so you have to practice more. This is at least a rescue method recognized by Master.
Yuye: Stop thinking nonsense, can I still kiss the master and prevent him from sleeping?
Chiye: Then it depends on where you kiss?
Yu Ye: Don’t go too far!
Chiye: Kissing Master on the forehead or cheek doesn’t seem to affect your sleep, what do you think?
Yu Ye:.
After a whole day of listening to stories and transmitting Lei Jin, Ji Qinglin really didn't have the extra energy to analyze anything anymore, so he dragged his tired body up the stairs:
"Get some rest early. We have to go find Qian Feng tomorrow to find out about the situation in Huangcheng."
Hearing Qian Feng, Yu Ye reminded again:
"Master, if possible, I suggest you find a better excuse to go there or contact Qian Feng in advance to talk about something else."
"Oh? What?"
"After all, we have asked Qian Feng to help twice in a row. It seems inappropriate to only bother her when something happens. It seems inappropriate to just ignore everything."
Ji Qinglin didn't expect that Yuye and Qianfeng cared about each other's feelings. Last time, Qianfeng reminded him that Yuye's situation was not right, so he nodded and said:
"You're right, I'll contact you as a teacher, but a group boss as busy as Qian Feng won't take your teacher seriously."
————————
"Busy, busy, busy, busier than me! I haven't even made a single call. When I contact you, something will happen! Don't beg me next time!"
In the room of the chairman of Sihai Trading Group.
Nangong Qianfeng, who was bored after the meeting, poked at Ji Qinglin's simple sketches in his notebook with a pen and complained fiercely.
When she only knew Huang Silang's identity before, Nangong Qianfeng could suppress the urge to contact him with the thought "He is an unlearned and unskilled gangster"; now that he knows that his true identity is Ji Qinglin, a beast in disguise, Nangong Qianfeng doesn't even know what to do. How to persuade yourself.
After agreeing to invest in Xindong Street, Ji Qinglin didn't contact him even once. It was really a business-to-business relationship, right?
Last time, I couldn't bear it anymore and found a perfect excuse to worry about Yu Ye. As a result, people who were careful enough had already noticed Yu Ye's abnormality.
Then could you give a little more careful consideration to other aspects? He didn't even take the initiative to come over and be polite.
But it's normal to think about it, after all, I have such a beautiful, outstanding and capable apprentice.
But he couldn't seem to be pretentious, so he agreed to take him to Nanhua District with him before, but then another apprentice appeared! She looks even more charming than Yu Ye!
I acted very arrogant and just helped without asking, but in the end you really couldn’t explain! Do you really think of yourself as a little wronged person who is offering your services for free?
You damn scumbag, don’t expect me to help you again, I’ll delete your contact information tomorrow!
Beep beep beep——
Nangong Qianfeng pouted her little mouth and was feeling happy to vent, when her cell phone rang.
When Nangong Qianfeng saw the call reminder from his contact, he was stunned for a moment, then he complained in a low voice:
"You think I can forgive you if I contact you first? Just keep going like this and see how long you can hold on?"
Beep beep beep——
Although he is still a little stingy in his heart, Nangong Qianfeng is also afraid that something will happen to Ji Qinglin. After all, last time he said that he even met the master who seriously injured Lei Qiong.
After hesitating for a while, I picked up the phone and tried to connect, but it automatically hung up because it took too long.
Nangong Qianfeng frowned and called directly, but the reply he got was:
Sorry, the number you dialed is currently on a call. Please call again later.
Nangong Qianfeng secretly regretted it. After all, it was so late. Ji Qinglin definitely didn't call for a casual chat. Why did he act like a fool and not answer the phone? What if that guy encounters an emergency?
I felt uneasy and thought about whether I should call again or ask Uncle Mo to contact me, but I heard Uncle Mo's voice coming from outside the door.
"Okay, okay, I'll go take a look right away."
Then he saw Uncle Mo pushing open the office door, taking a look at himself, and then replied to the phone:
"Don't worry, Qian Feng is fine. Maybe she was busy just now and didn't see her. I'll tell her later."
Nangong Qianfeng also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Ji Qinglin hadn't contacted him and was afraid something might happen, so he asked Uncle Mo to confirm. It was estimated that there was no danger to Ji Qinglin.
Huh, you're hypocritical. If you have the time, wouldn't you make a few more calls?
Beep beep beep——
I was cursing in my heart when my cell phone came to mind again.
Although his words were harsh, his body's reaction was honest. Nangong Qianfeng subconsciously clicked dial quickly. After realizing something, he clapped his hands regretfully.
