After a moment, when he walked into the conference room, Fang Ze saw his appearance clearly.
He was an old man who looked very handsome. Although the years had left many marks on his face, those marks did not damage his handsomeness. Instead, they added a lot of elegance and calmness to his body.
He was wearing gorgeous casual clothes with patterns of clouds and dragons tattooed on them, and his hair was combed meticulously. At first glance, he is a very serious person.
That is to say, Fang Ze had never seen the old farmer He Weidao dressed up, otherwise he would never be able to connect him with the person in front of him.
And when Fang Ze looked at He Weidao, He Weidao's sturdy eyes were also looking at him without sadness or joy.
Just when their eyes met, Fang Ze felt a heavy pressure, like a mountain, pressing down on him, making him feel a little breathless.
However, maybe because he always had a tenacity in his heart, the stronger the opponent's momentum, the more he aroused Fang Ze's dissatisfaction. So even though he felt so heavy that he was about to explode, Fang Ze still held on to his spine and looked at He Weidao firmly...
As the two looked at each other, other people in the conference room also noticed the scene in front of them after discussing quietly.
They gradually stopped talking, but secretly looked at He Weidao, and then at Fang Ze, with a lot of playful look in their eyes.
They had known about the grievances between the Si family and He Weidao, so they were really happy to watch the two sides confront each other so quickly.
And just when the entire conference room became quieter and quieter, and the atmosphere became heavier and heavier. The old man who had been presiding over the entire inquiry coughed slowly, "Ahem. Where were we talking about just now?"
As he spoke, he lowered his head and looked through the information.
Being interrupted like this, the heavy atmosphere in the entire conference room suddenly relaxed. He Weidao and Fang Ze couldn't help but look away. Fang Ze's eyes returned to the old man, but He Weidao looked at the people sitting in a circle in the conference room expressionlessly.
Feeling He Weidao's oppressive gaze, the big figures in the conference room gradually became a little restless. After a while, the person at the end stood up on his own initiative and sat down on a chair against the wall. And his action was like a signal, and the others stood up quietly one after another, and took the initiative to sit back, until He Weidao took the leader's position.
This scene fell into Fang Ze's peripheral vision, and he couldn't help but recall the situation of He Weidao introduced to him by Bai Zhi last night.
"Lie to Kangxi"
He Weidao is both the speaker of the West University and the leader of the civilian faction in West Africa. He can be said to hold the highest authority in West Africa. According to federal and state regulations, all states are independent and self-governing during non-war times, so he, who has been deeply involved in West Texas for more than ten years, can really be called the local emperor of West Texas.
There are only seven states in the Eastern Region, and He Wei Dao cannot be avoided in anything he does. Coupled with the influence of the Plantagenet Incident, the status of He Wei Dao in the state can be imagined.
Therefore, even though many of the people who came to watch this time were important figures in charge of various departments in the region, they still had to be a little short when faced with the question of what the Tao was. It is estimated that the old man in the noble court has a status comparable to him...
While Fang Ze was thinking this, He Weidao had slowly taken his seat and then quietly watched the inquiry.
The old man obviously had no dealings with He Weidao. He was obviously very kind to other people, but after seeing He Weidao, he didn't even say hello.
After He Weidao sat down, the old man looked down at the information for a while, then raised his head and said gently to Fang Ze, "Fang Ze, don't be nervous. Let's continue the inquiry."
Seeing the old man comforting himself, Fang Ze also retracted his glance at He Weidao from the corner of his eye, and then nodded silently.
The old man looked at Fang Ze, and then asked kindly, "You just said you were a descendant of the Si family. Is this true?"
Hearing the old man ask this question again, the people in the conference room couldn't help but focus on Fang Ze again, wanting to see Fang Ze's answer after He Weidao came.
When he heard the old man's question, He Weidao looked at Fang Ze with neither joy nor sorrow.
But Fang Ze ignored the looks in He Weidao's and others' eyes. He didn't even use words to tell the story, but stood up directly and spread his hands! The dark realm suddenly began to unfold!
The boundless darkness spread crazily around, sweeping across the entire conference room.
The people who can inquire and listen in the conference room are not ordinary people. So even if Fang Ze suddenly made such a move, they would still light up translucent protective layers of different colors in 0.1 seconds, or just tap lightly, and the power of the law would be activated, forming a circle around them. Dark central control area!
The darkness spreading in the conference room collided with the colorful protective layers, making a "chi la chi la" sound!
And that's not all yet. Wherever the darkness reaches, the tables, chairs, and furnishings in the conference room are all animated. Tall dark soldiers who looked like shadow warriors stood up from the ground. They were wearing pitch black armor and holding dark spears. They stood beside everyone, as if they were protecting or monitoring!
In just a moment, the entire conference room changed drastically.
Among them, the only one who didn't make any moves was He Weidao.
He didn't know whether it was because the skilled man was daring and knew that Fang Ze couldn't hurt him at all, or because he had other motives. When the darkness spread, Fang Ze quietly allowed himself to be enveloped in the darkness.
After being wrapped, he even raised his hand and looked at it carefully, his eyes thoughtful...
Although the Si family disappeared from this world for 10 years. But their dark abilities are so famous that as soon as Fang Ze showed it, everyone recognized this ability without him having to admit it or introduce it.
For a moment, the entire conference room was filled with low-pitched discussions again.
"It's actually the [Darkness] of the Si family? I haven't seen it in many years."
"Yes. Look at the dark soldiers. The dark castle of the Si family back then, the dark soldiers were famous in the spiritual world."
"So he is really a descendant of the Si family?"
Speaking of this, many people couldn't help but look at Fang Ze. There are all kinds of emotions in those eyes. There is contemplation, indifference, curiosity, regret, and so on...
Only Jiang Cheng, who was listening by the wall, looked at the scene in front of him a little absent-mindedly.
When Fang Ze said that he was a descendant of the Si family just now, Jiang Cheng actually didn't believe it at all.
After all, he had read Fang Ze's information too many times, and he was just the most ordinary civilian. There is no other identity at all.
Fang Ze's success has also come in the past few months. Therefore, Jiang Cheng was always certain that Fang Ze must be the new noble. And he was 90% sure that Fang Ze had a huge secret hidden in him. That secret is probably related to Fang Ze's rapid improvement in strength and his rapid breaking of the case!
With a way to become a noble and a secret that can quickly increase his strength, Jiang Cheng believes that once exposed, countless people will want to wipe out Fang Ze!
And the weak Fang Ze had no power to resist at all!
In this case, Jiang Cheng can use the knife to kill people invisibly!
result! Now everything is overturned!
Fang Ze actually has the abilities of the Si family? Are you really a descendant of the Si family? This completely disrupted Jiang Cheng's plans and ideas.
After all, although the Si family also has many enemies. But I also have many friends. Back then, there were even more people who felt guilty about the Si family. This will virtually add many layers of protection to Fang Ze!
Moreover, don’t forget that the Grand Speaker of the year had already taken the blame and resigned. The Federation’s internal definition of this matter was an injustice. So... once the federation vindicates the Si family, returns the Si family's assets that were confiscated that year, gives the Si family the resources that have been suspended over the years, and even compensates Fang Ze...
Thinking of the huge benefits that Fang Ze was about to gain, Jiang Cheng's eyes turned red with envy!
At this time, when everyone was in different moods, the old man was also looking at the dark soldiers filling the conference room in a trance, his eyes full of nostalgia...
After a moment, he came back to his senses, and then his eyes towards Fang Ze became softer, and his voice became more kind, "Child, you..."
Before he finished speaking, the man beside him who had never spoken since the beginning of the inquiry suddenly interrupted him, "Presiding Judge. Please allow me to say a few words first."
After hearing the man's words, the old man immediately broke away from his previous emotions. He calmed down, then looked at the man, smiled and said, "Okay."
With the consent of the old man, the man slowly said, "Although Fang Ze has demonstrated the ability of [Darkness], this only means that the descendants of the Si family are still alive."
"Ability can be borrowed or simulated with extraordinary treasure phantoms."
"So, I still need to verify whether this ability really belongs to Fang Ze. And I also need to verify whether Fang Ze is now a noble."
After hearing the man's cautious proposal, the old man did not agree immediately, but looked at Fang Ze, "Child, what do you think?"
Fang Ze clearly felt that after he used his ability, the old man's attitude towards him became different. This made him even more grateful for choosing this identity.
While thinking this, he nodded.
With Fang Ze's agreement, the old man nodded towards the man.
The man was not polite when he saw this. He stepped forward and raised his hand. In just a moment, a round container appeared in his hand.
Arriving in front of the dark soldiers, the man opened the container, which was filled with lime-like powder. The man grabbed a handful and threw it out!
The powder fell on the dark soldier, fell to the dark ground, and immediately began to grow rapidly.
In just a moment, the entire area was covered.
Then the powder flew up neatly, gathered together, and formed a white powder ball, which began to change continuously.
After a moment, the white powder ball began to shatter, forming an arrow in the air. The arrow pointed straight at Fang Ze.
The man tried to control the white arrow and rotate it around the conference room. But no matter how he turned, the arrow was still pointing straight at Fang Ze.
Seeing this, the man nodded slightly.
Everyone present, regardless of whether they had seen this Noble Phantasm or not, roughly guessed the test results at this time.
Immediately afterwards, the man took out the Noble Phantasm held by the black-clad investigators yesterday and asked Fang Ze to activate his own power stars.
Seven stars appear in the world and complement each other with the orb. Proving Fangze's noble identity!
After the two tests were completed, the man returned to the old man expressionlessly and nodded to the old man. But he didn't know if it was an illusion, but Fang Ze always felt that there was a trace of disappointment in his eyes...
But after just a moment of reflection, Fang Ze also guessed the reason for his disappointment: finding a descendant of the old aristocrat who had not yet been rehabilitated and did not know the specific thoughts of the federal high-level officials, and finding a new aristocrat who might have a huge impact on the world situation. The merits are completely different.
With this in mind, Fang Ze quietly looked around the conference room again. There were many people in the conference room who had the same sentiment.
After all, although a descendant of the Si family is valuable, the value is not high. The most important thing is to add a little fun to the boring eastern jurisdiction. How can the new aristocrats benefit so much!
Among them, perhaps only the old man was different.
After being thoroughly verified, the old man pretended to lower his head to straighten his clothes and secretly wiped the corners of his eyes. Then he raised his head, looked at Fang Ze with soft eyes, and said, "My child, I have wronged you for so many years."
After hearing the old man's words, Fang Ze said, "Actually, I'm not aggrieved either. Because I only learned about all this three months ago."
"Before this, I always thought I was just a kid growing up in the ghetto."
When they heard Fang Ze start talking about what happened during this period, everyone couldn't help but come back to their senses and began to listen patiently.
What Fang Ze told is very simple. Just replace the [Late Night Investigation Room] he got with the legacy of the Si family.
It is said that he received a life threat three months ago, which inspired the protective measures left by his family on him, letting him know everything, and also helped him embark on the path of transcendence.
And the reason why he made rapid progress and could be broken so easily was because of the resources and information provided by that protective measure.
Whenever he needs to advance, that protection will give him the resources to match. Whenever he wants to investigate a case or learn information, that protective measure will also give him relevant information.
This allowed him to get twice the result with half the effort, whether he was practicing or breaking the law.
These rhetorics were thought up by Fang Ze when he made the plan yesterday, and they are considered to be nine lies and one truth. It not only explains his rapid progress during this period, but also makes it difficult to distinguish between true and false.
Moreover, such an explanation can also minimize the number of eyes that covet Fang Ze.
After all, someone might be interested in the Si family's treasure. But the cultivation contract that binds the soul has almost no value, and it is difficult to attract people's attention.
And so it is. After listening to Fang Ze's story, most people were disappointed, disappointed, and disappointed again.
There were even impatient and disappointed people who wanted to leave early and no longer participate in this inquiry. It was the people around him who grabbed him and pointed at He Weidao and the old man, that made the man sit down angrily.
In this way, in Fang Ze's slow narration, almost all the doubts about him were explained clearly.
Anyway...if you have any problems, just say "I don't know what the family left me" and it will be solved.
Every noble family has its own treasures, and no one knows how much the Si family has. Moreover, the Si family was the first noble to be exterminated, and no one knew what they could leave behind with their lives.
So, just like this, this inquiry meeting originally aimed at the new nobles inexplicably turned into a self-certification meeting for the descendants of the Si family. The atmosphere became quirky and relaxed, but also gradually boring.
Most of the big shots present were a little distracted after hearing this.
However, all this changed at the end of the consultation meeting.
At the end of the consultation meeting, the old man looked at Fang Ze kindly, and then asked a digression, "Son, what are your plans after the consultation meeting?"
Fang Ze looked at the old man like this. After a moment, he suddenly asked, "Can I speak?"
Perhaps he didn't expect Fang Ze to ask him this question, so the old man smiled and said, "Of course. Is there anything that can't be said?"
After receiving the old man's affirmative reply, Fang Ze turned his head to He Weidao, and then said slowly, "I want to appeal to the federation and ask for the restoration of the Si family's aristocratic status! Return the Si family's property that has been seized over the years! Get the corresponding compensate!"
"And ask the federation to restart the investigation of the Plantagenet incident and thoroughly investigate the culprit who wronged the Si family back then! Let the culprit pay the price!"
Hearing Fang Ze's words, the entire conference room was silent for a moment.
The atmosphere in the originally boring conference room suddenly became tense!
Everyone couldn't help but look at Fang Ze with a strange expression, and then at He Weidao, who was expressionless.
provocative! Chi Guoguo’s provocation!
Everyone knows that the moment a descendant of the Si family appears, they will automatically stand on the opposite side of He Weidao. But no one expected that this descendant of the Si family would dare to provoke a dispute first? !
And let’s recall the identities of Fang Ze and He Weidao.
One is the director of the security bureau of a small high-end city. He is still a figure in the high-end city, but he is nothing in the state capital. The other one is the powerful president of the state assembly, who is a very important figure in the entire eastern region.
The gap between the two is like that of an ant and an elephant.
As a result, today the ants were the first to show their mandibles to the elephants and launch an attack!
Things suddenly became interesting!
While everyone was thinking this, He Weidao just glanced at Fang Ze expressionlessly, then turned away, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking.
At this time, the old man who heard Fang Ze's declaration was also stunned for a moment.
After a moment, he came back to his senses, looked at Fang Ze approvingly, and then said, "You have such courage, I believe your parents will definitely be happy under Jiuquan!"
"And you're right! It's really time to investigate the lake painting!"
"For so many years, without any urging from the parties involved or their descendants, the Federation has been pretending to be deaf and mute! Now, I want to see how they continue to fool around!"
The old man's words were obviously a bit out of line, but he was indeed very popular. After hearing this, several big shots in the conference room coughed twice, as if to remind the old man.
Sure enough, after hearing the reminder, the old man stopped what he was about to say, but his eyes remained firm.
He looked at Fang Ze and said, "Don't worry, kid. There are many old guys like me who still remember your family."
"If you just choose to live your life peacefully, we will support your decision."
"But if you want to restore glory to your family, we will also help you!"
Speaking of this, he glanced at He Weidao cryptically, "Besides, we will definitely not let you be bullied!"
After speaking, maybe he was afraid that his words would make Fang Ze too excited. He stopped talking and said slowly, "Of course, things have to be done step by step. Don't be too hasty. Let's restore your noble status to the Federation first, and then we can discuss other matters in the long run. matter."
From being wary of the old man at the beginning, to now being moved by the old man's affection for licking the calf, Fang Ze sincerely thanked the old man.
Then, the old man asked about Fang Ze's life with concern. For example, where does Fang Ze live now, whether his daily expenses are sufficient, and whether his work is satisfactory.
When he heard that Fang Ze was still living in a house of just over 100 square meters funded by the Bai family, the old man's eyes were filled with distress.
And when he learned that Fang Ze's income was only a few hundred thousand, he didn't have much money in his hands, and he was very frugal on expenses, the old man felt even more distressed.
Hmm... To be honest, even though he experienced the luxurious life of a noble yesterday, Fang Ze still couldn't understand why he felt so distressed.
How cool is this day? Isn’t it much better than living in a rented house with 996 and only a few thousand yuan a month in my previous life?
Of course, what made Fang Ze even happier was the way Jiang Cheng trembled with anger when he heard himself crying about poverty and saying he had no money...
In this way, the inquiry will end in such a warm atmosphere.
After the meeting, the old man invited Fang Ze to chat next door for a while. Because it was difficult to refuse such hospitality, Fang Ze could only go there happily.
During this period, He Weidao disappeared without knowing when.
He has not said a word since he came to this inquiry meeting.
No one knows why he came, and no one knows what he is doing...
However, everyone knows that when the descendants of the Si family appear, Cedar State may become more and more interesting.
Especially...that descendant of the Si family has a very tough character and terrifying potential, which makes it even more interesting...
.........
After chatting with the old man, Fang Ze returned to the villa under the escort of the Special Service Department.
According to the Secret Service Department, although Fang Ze's identity has been determined now, he is not a new noble, but a descendant of the Si family. But no one knows how the federation will characterize the identity of the descendants of the Fang Zesi family. Therefore, Fang Ze still needs to wait for the result in the villa.
Fang Ze didn't have any problem with this treatment. His only problem was... he was a little flustered when he saw the maid in the villa.
I don't know what went wrong with these maids. When Fang Ze was away, they bought back a lot of props that Fang Ze mentioned, and they learned from each other and practiced hard in the villa...
This made Fang Ze feel as if he had entered the Pansi Cave as soon as he returned to the villa. He was dizzy and worried that he would be eaten up and his life would be at risk...
...
And at the same time.
While Fang Ze was worried about his "life", the aftermath of this consultation meeting also began to spread rapidly...
Almost everyone in Emerald City, Cedar State, and even the Eastern Jurisdiction Region who paid attention to this consultation meeting received relevant news very quickly.
And after learning that Fang Ze was not a new nobleman, but a descendant of the Si family, to be honest, he was really shocked.
Many people began to inquire and investigate the situation of this inquiry meeting and the information about Fang Ze and the Si family...
I want to see what happened to this sudden reversal of things.
There are also many people who are curious about what methods He Weidao, who has been cultivating in Xidazhou for more than ten years, will use in the face of the sudden appearance of the descendants of the Si family!
Are you pretending not to see it? Direct suppression? Or...handling it secretly?
At the same time, Xidazhou, the state capital.
In the simple dwelling where He Weidao is located.
He Weidao, who was clearly still in the Emerald City just now, was now wearing civilian clothes, holding a hoe in his hand, his trousers rolled up to his ankles, and was hoeing the ground with concentration.
After a moment, the door of the residence was pushed open from the outside, and the man in a suit who accompanied him last time slowly walked in from the outside with a document.
Entering the residence, the man in a suit was obviously stunned when he saw He Weidao. He stopped and couldn't help but ask, "Teacher? Aren't you in the Emerald City?"
Hearing what the man in the suit said, He Weidao continued hoeing the ground without looking back and asked, "Who told you that I was in the Emerald City?"
The man in the suit was stunned for a moment, then said, "Many people saw you at the Emerald City Information Conference, right?"
He Weidao chuckled, "Oh? Really?"
Seeing He Weidao's indifferent smile, the man in the suit instinctively felt that something was wrong. His brain was running rapidly, "Then...who is the one from Emerald City?"
For a moment, he seemed to have guessed something, and said with a surprised look, "Mr. Bai?!"
He Weidao straightened up with a smile and said calmly, "I didn't say anything."
