Still in Lin Feng's oversized office.
The tall Capitano stood in front of Pantalone and the skirmishers, his stern face as if cut with a knife and an axe. Even just standing there, the temperature in the room seemed to be as cold as below freezing.
The attitude of Pantalone and the skirmishers towards him was even worse. No matter what Capitano said, they both pretended to be dead. One of them leaned against the wall and the other against the window with their arms folded. They refused to say anything. One sentence.
Capitano, who knew exactly what the two of them were waiting for, was not angry at all. He just stood there with a calm expression, waiting for Lin Feng's arrival.
Outside the office.
Yora, Kelai, and Dadalia were still free. The four of them, like thieves, put their ears against the door and listened carefully to what was going on inside.
Capitano came with bad intentions.
However, he was still very polite to Yura, trying his best to talk about the internal affairs of the executive officer politely, hoping that Yura would avoid it for the time being.
Dadalia originally thought that since he had been fishing for so long, Capitano would have to scold him for his personality.
As a result, after the two met, Capitano just looked at him and left.
This abnormal behavior made Dadalia feel a little uneasy.
Capitano was famous for his strict discipline and harsh treatment of others. The most despised person in his life was that one was a despicable person who violated the spirit of chivalry, and the other was a lazy person.
right.
That's right.
Lazy person.
Capitano hated lazy people.
In his opinion, laziness is the biggest root of human evil. People who procrastinate in doing things and are lazy when they can do things should be beaten!
And Dadalia has been fishing in Liyue for a long time.
Or.
Since he took over as executive officer, he has spent his time fishing.
Not only did nothing get done, but a lot of useless things were bought on the public account.
Use public accounts to buy private goods.
No need to think about who taught him.
Forget it when Pantalone is still there. After all, he handles the public accounts of the Fools. With his relationship with Lin Feng, even if there are some complaints, he will not say anything and turn a blind eye. It passed in just one eye.
But now something happened in Pantalone.
Not only did he sneak away with Her Majesty the Queen's Heart of God, he also attempted to murder the second executive, Datorre.
This evil act, which is tantamount to treason, undoubtedly caused him to lose control of the Northland Bank.
Now other executives have taken over the public accounts of Fools.
But in this way, Dadalia's behavior of seeking public benefit for personal gain seems a bit inappropriate.
But because of Dadalia's relationship with Lin Feng, Capitano didn't bother to pay attention to him. Whoever wants to cause trouble can find it later.
When I think of Lin Feng.
Capitano's mood was complicated.
To be honest, Troy Shenezvich was the most talented person he had ever seen, bar none.
He is young, has excellent martial arts, and has a very good brain. No matter what you say, he can tell you at once, and his work efficiency is unparalleled. Although his personality is a bit out of control, he also uses various tricks in his methods. But there is no doubt that this is the strongest genius he has seen in the hundreds of years he has been working as a fool.
Why wouldn't such a talent refuse to serve Zhi Dong wholeheartedly?
Although Her Majesty the Queen personally recognized Lin Feng's achievements in winning the Heart of God, the murder of his colleagues was still unclear.
"well--"
Capitano didn't like Lin Feng very much, and it had been the same since the day Lin Feng joined the Fools.
But this does not affect his appreciation of Lin Feng's personal abilities.
squeak.
When the three of them were silent, the door was pushed open.
It was Lin Feng who walked in.
When he saw Capitano, he greeted him with a smile: "Hey, you three were having a lively chat."
Capitano: "."
Pantalone: "."
Skirmisher: "."
Which of your eyes saw the three of them chatting lively?
Lin Feng didn't pay attention to their looks. He pulled out a chair and sat on it. He crossed his legs and said, "Long time no see, Capitano."
His attitude was casual.
Not at all as respectful as before during Solstice.
Capitano frowned slightly and said calmly: "The rightful owner is here, so now we can start."
"Oedipus, Pantalone, Scaramucci."
"On behalf of Her Majesty the Queen, I now formally initiate an investigation into Dotore's accusations against you for murdering his slices."
"Do you have anything to say?"
Capitano finished.
The skirmishers and Pantalone then focused their attention on Lin Feng.
Lin Feng lived up to expectations and spoke: "There's nothing to say, just kill him if you want. Anyway, we have a grudge, and you all know it."
"."
This answer was very casual, and at the same time it made Capitano very dissatisfied: "Oedipus, please answer seriously."
"Didn't I answer seriously enough?"
"I have a grudge against Dotore, don't you know?"
"How many times did this guy almost send me to the laboratory and cut me into pieces? Have you forgotten?"
"In Mondstadt, his slice was trying to kill me. Is it wrong for me to fight back?"
"In Liyue, the two slicers wanted to take me into the laboratory. Is it wrong for me to kill them?"
"In Sumeru, this guy even created a god's body to kill me. Is it my fault?"
"It would be better to say that Dotore has attacked me, a member of Her Majesty the Queen, again and again. Isn't there something wrong with you not questioning Dotore but instead causing trouble for me?"
Lin Feng's mouth is still as eloquent and eloquent as ever.
Capitano couldn't defeat him, so he had to turn to the skirmishers and Pantalone: "You two, what do you have to say?"
"have nothing to say."
"There is a grudge."
Pantalone and the skirmishers' answers followed Lin Feng's words, which gave Capitano the urge to beat them up.
"Detailed description."
"Where is your grudge against Dotore?"
Capitano patiently continued: "You have ruined Dotore's plan in Xumi and caused huge losses to the Fools. Now the God of Xumi Grass has used the Fools to collude with the Order to murder the gods. An order was issued to expel the Fools and sever diplomatic relations. The three of you are jointly and severally responsible for this matter! If you can’t explain it clearly, just wait for Her Majesty the Queen’s personal trial.”
answer his.
These were Lin Feng's disdainful words.
"Bah, do you want Dotore to be shameless?"
"Obviously he was the one who deceived Pantalone into treason in the first place, and he was the one who presided over the blasphemous experiment, but now he's trying to beat him up? Isn't it shameful?"
Next, Lin Fengyan succinctly and concisely described Dotore's experiments, his blasphemous purpose, Pantalone being deceived, and the bloody feud between the skirmishers and Dotore.
The face under Capitano's mask couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.
Lin Feng said this.
Everything about the three of them surrounding Dotore and slicing them seemed to make sense.
Everyone has a deep hatred for Dotore.
Especially skirmishers.
Speaking of skirmishers.
Capitano couldn't help but feel a little confused.
The story of stragglers is not news to fools.
A divine creature betrayed by the gods, a doll longing for a heart, its past experience can only be described as miserable.
Everyone is accustomed to Dotore using skirmishers as experimental subjects.
However, after each experiment, the strength of the skirmishers would skyrocket, so everyone regarded this as a fair trade.
I didn't expect that there were so many grudges hidden behind the two of them.
Look at it this way.
Lin Feng fought back after his life was threatened by Dotore many times.
Pantalone was angry and killed because Dotore broke his promise and did something that was equivalent to tearing up the contract, which was a heinous thing in the eyes of the Liyue people.
Skirmishers, on the other hand, have a blood feud with Dotore, and they are the simplest and purest form of revenge killing.
If you say so.
All three of them have very valid reasons.
"It's hard to explain."
Capitano thought to himself.
Dotore is the second executive officer. He is extremely powerful and is also responsible for the evil eye and human body modification affairs. He has a prominent position among the Fools.
If you report it yourself.
With Dotore's temperament, something might happen.
But don’t report it like this.
How should I solve the problem of Pantalone and the skirmishers?
Executive Handbook No. 1.
Do not kill each other.
Although this is nonsense, as long as there is no evidence, what does it matter if I kill you?
But there is conclusive evidence that Pantalone and the skirmishers teamed up to murder Dotore Slice. Sumeru's void recorded all these things, and Dotore has a copy of the image data in his hand.
"It's really true that Piero took this trouble on himself."
Capitano sighed again.
He is different from other executives who can fool around and fool around. He is a very serious person.
Piero took a fancy to Capitano and asked him to come to Liyue to investigate. At the same time, he gave Dottore a reasonable explanation and asked him to calm down.
But this problem is too difficult. Capitano is thinking too hard now and has not been able to come up with a best-of-both-worlds explanation.
Lin Feng naturally saw his dilemma.
It wasn't just him, people like Pantalone and Skirmishers could see Capitano's hesitation just by looking at him.
Even though his face was completely covered by the mask, it couldn't cover up his uneasy mood at all.
"Capitano."
"I have an idea. I wonder if you are willing to listen?"
Lin Feng's voice sounded, pulling Capitano out of his thoughts.
"you say."
Capitano asked in a deep voice after coming back to his senses.
"You go back and report."
"The sixth executive Scaramucci was killed, the ninth executive Pantalone was killed, and the Bank of the North was managed by the fifth executive Rooster Puccinella."
As soon as these words came out, the whole hall fell into silence.
Capitano's voice became deeper and deeper as he shook his head and said: "Two executive officers were killed in battle. Do you know how much impact it will have on the military morale of the Fools?"
"Then let's put it another way."
"Pantaronie and Scaramucci died in the abyss, at the hands of the Princess of the Abyss. According to the custom of Solstice, they were awarded the title of Heroes of Solstice."
Lin Feng spoke calmly.
Capitano felt his heart pounding wildly.
Being killed in battle does not sound good.
Sacrificing one's life for one's country is acceptable.
"No, they two are not dead."
"If other fools see it, won't our reputation be ruined?"
Capitano raised a new question.
Lin Feng rolled his eyes at him and said matter-of-factly: "Her Majesty the Queen has announced that they are dead and awarded them hero medals. Who dares to say that they are still alive."
"."
Capitano said nothing.
have to say.
This is a neat trick.
Her Majesty the Queen said that they were dead, so if you dare to say that the skirmishers and Pantalone were not dead, you would be desecrating the majesty of the Winter Queen, which is a capital crime.
Think about it.
Capitano couldn't think of any other better way, so he nodded and said, "Just do what you said."
As for how Dotore feels about this.
It’s useless to have feelings.
You, Duo Tuore, and the three of them all have grievances. It's very reasonable to take revenge if you have vengeance, and to complain if you have grievances. Afterwards, they both died, so it's useless to say anything.
Until then.
Pantalone and the skirmishers finally let go of their worries.
Lin Feng's simple words solved the hidden danger of being hunted by Zhi Dong for both of them.
Finished talking about Pantalone and the skirmishers.
Capitano stretched out his hand again and said, "Where is the Heart of God?"
"Here I am."
"Leave it to me. I will bring it to the Queen."
"No."
"What did you say?"
"I said I wouldn't give it to you."
After confirming that Lin Feng was talking about not surrendering the Heart of God, Capitano was immediately furious, and his aura to kill was rising, causing Pantalone and the skirmishers to feel chills running down their spines.
The fourth executive officer of the Fools.
Known as the strongest mortal.
Capitano's strength can be imagined.
Skirmishers and Pantalone would probably be beaten if they came together.
"Oedipus, you also want to commit treason?"
Capitano's words were strong.
But this is not a slap in the face, but he really thinks so.
Refuse to hand over the Heart of God that belongs to the Queen of Winter.
This behavior is as bad as Pantalone running away with the Heart of the Rock God.
"Don't imitate Dotore and talk nonsense there."
Lin Feng said lazily: "Recovering the Heart of God is a task assigned to me by Her Majesty the Queen. Once this task is completed, naturally I will be asked to hand over the Heart of God in person. What does it mean to bring it back to you?"
Capitano's eyes narrowed slightly, and his aura became slightly weaker.
What Lin Feng said makes sense.
It’s hard to refute.
After the two looked at each other for a while, Capitano said: "I will wait for you in the winter. If you can't wait, I will let you know the fate of a betrayer."
"Are you done?"
"How about leaving?"
Lin Feng waved his hand indifferently, thought for a while and then said: "By the way, don't forget to ask Andre to pick up the bill when you leave, and pay for the losses this morning before leaving."
"."
The expression under Capitano's mask changed slightly, he snorted coldly, opened the door and left.
After he left.
Lin Feng leaned back and smiled at Pantalone and the skirmishers: "How about it, are you satisfied this time? Two 'killed'."
Pantalone and the skirmishers did not answer, they just shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
The solution is good.
It's just that from now on, the two of them are nominally dead.
But that’s fine too.
Dead people are better at doing things than living people.
