Selling garlic-roasted eggplant in a university district really is wildly profitable

"Those 'Marauders' are really petty. That 'Ling Xian' talks a good game, and that 'Celestial King' seems so magnanimous, but deep down they're still vengeful."

Lin Yu glanced at the gossip-like message sent by "A'yu," silently noted it down, and then sent a message to the "Freedom Alliance" Group Chat, reminding the others to pay attention to their actions in a few days.

In addition, A'yu did not send any more information of value. After all, although the "Marauders" had taken action in the Nether Void Realm, it did not seem to have any additional Chain Reaction on the "Marauders".

But on the "Order" side...

Lin Yu switched back to his original account and found that the "Director's" Socializing account had sent him a lot of messages.

Although "Paper Kite" is currently acting as the "Director" and has even just "made a contribution" in the Nether Void Realm, no one, including members of "Order," has yet noticed anything amiss.

But... this "disguise" was, after all, done with "accomplices."

"Good Night," "Gambler," and "Paper Kite" themselves were aware of this plan.

So...

"Li Hua actually sent me a message directly?"

Lin Yu looked at the message notifications about Li Hua on his phone and opened the chat window.

"Gambler" Li Hua didn't provide any particularly important news; most of it consisted of recent documents from within "Order" and "Night Watcher," as well as a summary of what had happened on the scene in Shenzhen.

Li Hua learned most of this from "Good Night," then compiled and simplified it before sending it to himself. Li Hua was very thoughtful; Lin Yu was currently out planning something after leaving the scene, so he wouldn't be able to keep up with the situation there.

Moreover, Li Hua could also tell that it would definitely be beneficial for Lin Yu to understand the current state of "Order" and "Player Mutual Aid Society".

In particular, Lin Yu is also responsible for uncovering the infiltrators within "Order" and finding the murderers of "Sherlock" and "Gao Shan".

As for why "Good Night" wasn't allowed to directly copy and report to Lin Yu, it's probably because "Good Night's " captain is also being watched, making it inconvenient...

Furthermore, although "Good Night" had already become involved in Li Hua and Lin Yu's internal purge plan, he didn't know much about the details of the plan. Therefore, when simplifying it, he might easily miss the key points or omit content that shouldn't be omitted.

For Lin Yu, reading the content compiled by Li Hua was definitely the most comfortable.

Although he could also obtain information directly from the fragments lurking within "Paper Kite's " soul, that would be risky for Lin Yu, since it would be easier to be exposed in the Real World, at the "Player Mutual Aid Society" venue, than in the Nether Void Realm.

Moreover, the information obtained in this way may not be as accurate as the information obtained by Li Hua.

After briefly reading through the message sent by Li Hua, Lin Yu roughly confirmed that the election process for the "Player Mutual Aid Society" was still underway.

Even...

The intervention of the "Grandmaster" and the death of "Yu Linling" accelerated everything once again.

"The 'Grandmaster' has demanded that the schedule be expedited while minimizing personnel movement... The entire venue is now in a semi-locked-down state?"

"At the same time... the voting process was expedited, the speaking time was shortened, and it was changed to a timed presentation... so the first round of voting was completed this afternoon and the results were published?"

"As for the murder case, it has been determined by the 'Grandmaster' to be an 'independent emergency incident.' To ensure impartiality, she randomly selected a special task force consisting of one member from the 'Player Mutual Aid Society,' one from 'Order,' one from Night Watcher,' and one member with no organizational background to investigate during the election period. They cooperated and checked each other, preventing the 'Player Mutual Aid Society' from commenting on the matter."

"After the election..." the Grandmaster said, indicating that "Order" and the new President would conduct a joint investigation...

Looking at the message from Li Hua, Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh...

"Grandmaster" Gu Mo... she's really amazing.

In a sense, this girl is indeed very naive, even "simple-minded." It's clear that she has absolutely no idea how to "negotiate" or organize "activities."

But...

Given the current situation, appointing Gu Mo— a person with straightforward and simple ideas, a high enough position that no one dares to go against her, who doesn't care about the consequences or offending people, and who can take on significant responsibility—as the "leader" is actually the right thing to do!

At the same time, Lin Yu also realized that... Li Hua definitely had a role in pushing things along.

"This 'Gambler'... is using the 'Grandmaster' title like a weapon."

Lin Yu muttered to himself.

However, judging from the results, Li Hua and Gu Mo... were indeed right.

The streamlined and accelerated election process of the "Player Mutual Aid Society" will definitely catch the "Marauders" and other organizations off guard, causing changes to their original plans.

At the same time, a "special task force" involving four organizations was established, which temporarily silenced the "Player Mutual Aid Society" and minimized the impact of the originally chaotic series of "murder cases".

After these two measures were introduced...

At least from the perspective of the "Order" organization, it is conducive to achieving the goal of making the situation in Shenzhen as stable as possible and making the Presidential election of the "Player Mutual Aid Society" as peaceful and successful as possible.

From Li Hua's personal perspective... using Gu Mo to create new variables and eliminate the variables brought about by the murder case would definitely be beneficial in catching the mole.

After all... the causes and culprits of the deaths of the "Player Mutual Aid Society" members are varied, but at least one or two of them may be related to the "Copper Furnace," or even facilitated with the help of an insider.

Eliminating the impact of these murders and speeding up the election process would certainly thwart some objective that the mole wanted to achieve.

This will inevitably lead to action from the other side—and once they take action, they may expose even more weaknesses.

It's very likely... that I and Li Hua will catch them.

As Lin Yu flipped through the files on his phone, he understood Li Hua's thoughts.

Some of the contents of these documents and summaries surprised Lin Yu and left him with mixed feelings.

For example... Gu Mo "randomly selected" as a member of the task force.

The "Knight" of "Order"... He's the only member without any flaws.

What remains is...

"Xi Chen" from the "Player Mutual Aid Society"

The "Seagull" of the Night Watcher.

And the "Su Muzhe" group, which had no organizational background.

The probability of these four people solving the case together is definitely no higher than one percent.

If Lin Yu didn't know that Gu Mo wasn't malicious, he would have suspected that she was doing it on purpose.

After all, the only one among them who could be considered intelligent was "Su Muzhe".

Lin Yu knew very well that Miss Writer, whose real identity was actually a "Pen Name," would absolutely not contribute to this investigation.

To be honest, Lin Yu was thankful that the other party hadn't actively participated in any of these murders.

After all, although the other party was not on the "Order" blacklist, and was even considered half a whitelist... Lin Yu knew very well that the other party's level of willfulness and personality was absolutely comparable to most members of the "Psychology Society".

The reason she hasn't been blacklisted by "Order" is definitely not because she has good Moral Concepts or is a law-abiding citizen, but because she is a "Player" whose stance leans towards lawfulness and goodwill.

"Alright then... anyway, the purpose of this combination is just to minimize the impact."

This isn't the only document worth criticizing.

Besides that, another thing that Lin Yu was quite concerned about was the report sent by the "Night Watcher".

Report on the Night Watcher's support operation in the Nether Void Realm.

Although "Tengshe" was a slovenly vagrant, he was still able to write reports very quickly with the help of "Chongming".

Although Li Hua knew perfectly well that the "Director" of the activities in the Nether Void Realm was "Paper Kite" in disguise, that was not a reason for him to think that Lin Yu needed to see the report.

The reason why Li Hua copied this report to Lin Yu is also quite obvious...

The report mentioned... "Beast Master".

In the descriptions of "Tengshe," "Chongming," "Mountain Sparrow," and even "Robin," it is mentioned that the "Beast Master" has likely already advanced to "Tier 3."

Furthermore... "Tengshe" even provided some information about the "Beast Master's" [Exclusive item]—although this is currently considered questionable within the "Order."

The reason Li Hua sent it was quite simple.

"Could you verify the veracity of the information regarding the 'Beast Master' part through your method?"

For Lin Yu, this was something he couldn't have wanted more than anything.

"It might be a bit troublesome, but I will do my best to verify it."

Lin Yu replied.

At the same time, he inwardly thanked "Tengshe" for not letting personal matters interfere with official duties and for still disclosing "Zhu Ming's" intelligence.

As expected... the foreshadowing I left was correct.

"If things continue like this, with just a little groundwork laid, we might be able to obtain 'Zhu Ming's' Exclusive item before the real 'Exclusive item,' the 'Empty Shell,' is even created."

With this in mind, Lin Yu opened the last file that Li Hua had sent.

This was also a rather important document, but Lin Yu didn't think there would be any surprises—the ranking announcement of the first round of voting results for the "Player Mutual Aid Society".

Although the first round of voting does not represent the final result, it can basically show who the competitive candidates are—and Lin Yu already knew who those competitive candidates were.

Lin Yu could even guess their rankings—especially after some of the candidates died, making the rankings even easier to predict.

But...

After Lin Yu opened the file, he was still somewhat surprised by its contents.

"What's the deal with the one ranked first... 'Penglai'?"

"Why does her campaign team only have one 'Tier 3' guy codenamed 'Cold Cicada'... and who is he anyway?"

Lin Yu was somewhat confused.

Why did this guy, who was just there to make up the numbers and had no connections, suddenly get the highest number of votes in the first round?

It's as baffling as if the new world's richest person isn't Musk or Bezos, but Zhao Lihai.

By the way, Zhao Lihai runs a barbecue restaurant outside the south gate of Jiangcheng Media University, and his grilled garlic eggplant is exceptional.
