How strange, the Psychology Society received the latest intel too. Why could that be?
Of course, Lin Yu would never tell the "Gambler" Li Hua how he obtained the intelligence or who his informant was.
After all, in a sense, the answer could be either "Yayu" or "A'yu".
Neither of these two answers would necessarily convince Li Hua.
After all, the "Yayu" is only a "Tier 1" in public, so it shouldn't have the opportunity to come into contact with so many secrets— Li Hua might not even know or have heard of such a person.
As for "A'yu"... Li Hua probably doesn't believe he can get any information from "A'yu".
Therefore, even if you tell Li Hua the truth, you can't directly gain Li Hua trust. It will probably take some time to persuade him.
Therefore, Lin Yu simply decided not to discuss these matters with Li Hua and left this topic unresolved.
After all, once the decision was made to leave it blank, Li Hua, who had already decided to give the "Director" a high degree of freedom, would not pursue the matter further.
[Sea City - Li Hua: Very valuable intelligence, "Director." I will personally continue to monitor and follow up on "Penglai" and the hidden "Cold Cicada."]
[Sea City - Li Hua: If you have any new information about "Cold Cicada" or can pinpoint his whereabouts, please feel free to share it with me.]
Lin Yu responded to Li Hua's message.
[Director: Okay.]
[Director: But what you mean is... we shouldn't disturb 'Penglai' for now?]
Lin Yu understood the unspoken meaning behind Li Hua's arrangement.
He personally oversaw everything, and everyone had to report back to him after discovering new information...
Therefore, Lin Yu directly typed out the question.
[Director: Your opinion is that we don't need to report this to the organization for the time being?]
As Lin Yu expected, Li Hua gave an affirmative answer.
[Sea City - Li Hua: Yes, given that we don't yet know the "Marauders '" motives, we shouldn't alert them, lest they change their original plans again.]
[Sea City - Li Hua: The arrival of the "Grandmaster" has caused many variables, making the election highly unpredictable. The actions of the "Marauders" will inevitably be adjusted as well—I have a feeling that this "Penglai" and "Cold Cicada" should not have surfaced today.]
[Sea City - Li Hua: So what we need to do now is to minimize the variables as much as possible—I will manipulate "Good Night" in other ways to arrange corresponding countermeasures without the organization's knowledge, after all, the "Penglai" incident itself is also very abnormal.]
[Sea City - Li Hua: But in principle, I don't think we should allow the "Marauders" to directly confirm that we have locked onto "Penglai" and their relationship, so as to avoid unnecessary variables and trouble.]
What Li Hua said was exactly what Lin Yu was thinking.
From the perspective of "Order," it was indeed advantageous for Li Hua not to report this matter to the organization.
From Lin Yu's personal perspective, he was even less inclined to let "Order" react now. Although "A'yu" was unlikely to suspect "Yayu," Lin Yu still had great respect for the person behind all the actions and decisions of the "Marauders," the "Diviner."
Lin Yu didn't want that guy to find any weakness in him.
[Sea City - Li Hua: This matter should remain between the two of us... At least until I use my abilities and the corresponding Item Set a few more times, and assess the current risks through 'probability' methods, before making a decision.]
[Director: Understood. I will continue the investigation as thoroughly as possible, without alerting the suspects, especially regarding the whereabouts of "Cold Cicada."]
[Sea City - Li Hua: Be careful in everything you do, and prioritize your own safety.]
[Sea City - Li Hua: Even if the situation is confirmed to be safe, we should still keep a low profile and avoid leaking information.]
After negotiating with Li Hua and confirming Li Hua's next course of action, which also indirectly confirmed his own "Director" identity and subsequent action strategy, Lin Yu immediately switched to his other Socializing accounts.
The account that will be logged in now is, naturally, "Schreiber," which we haven't used yet.
Although the "Schreiber" account had added some experts and had some connections, there was really no one to ask about the information from earlier using this identity— Lin Yu had not yet made any friends or found any deep Partner using the "Schreiber" identity.
However, even without deep Partner who can "get the information," Schreiber still has some ordinary Partner who can be used to spread the information for free.
For example... the person in charge of the "Psychology Society's" Shenzhen branch, "Skinner," who was added earlier.
[Schreiber: I have some interesting tidbits, some fresh 'rumors' about the Shenzhen elections... Are you interested?]
After crafting a message that suited Schreiber's personality and would also pique Skinner's interest, Lin Yu pressed the send button.
The message popped up gently and landed on Skinner's phone.
And within seconds...
Skinner's reply also popped up.
[Skinner: What intelligence? If it's some powerful figure parachuted in from "Order," we already know.]
[Schreiber: I don't think you guys are so out of touch that you don't even know this. If you don't even know that a "Grandmaster" has come to Shenzhen... then I really have to be completely disappointed in the current "Psychology Society".]
[Schreiber: Although the current "Council" consists of an Impostor the First Generation President, two old guys who have lost their ideals and beliefs, and two ordinary people who are all quite capable and have good potential as "Player" but are nothing special, under the leadership of this "Council," the "Psychology Society" has indeed deviated from the expectations of the First Generation President and the proper form of this organization.]
[Schreiber: But... at least I'm still convinced that the Psychology Society's basic organizational structure and crucial information gathering capabilities are excellent.]
[Schreiber: If that fake "Psychology Society" run by the Impostor forwarder is so oblivious to the arrival of the "Grandmaster," then I really don't need to argue with her about who is the Orthodoxy... I will naturally start anew and create a completely new organization.]
[Schreiber: So, you don't need to hide anything and test me. If I couldn't gather this kind of information, I couldn't call myself the First Generation successor.]
Lin Yu quickly typed out a long message and sent it, conveying the message of Schreiber's obsessive personality to Skinner in the chat.
After all, members of the "Psychology Society" love to evaluate and analyze others...
It was time for me to make a lasting impression on the Psychology Society regarding Schreiber.
The best way to do this is to have some members actively collect and analyze the traits of "Schreiber".
Skinner took the bait.
[Skinner: You have a very high opinion of yourself, Schreiber. You seem to feel a deep sense of responsibility towards the Psychology Society.]
[Schreiber: Yes, there's no point in hiding it, but it's not important either.]
[Schreiber: What you should be more concerned about right now is the "intelligence" I'm bringing—intelligence that's more immediate and important than the fact that the "Grandmaster" has arrived in Shenzhen.]
Skinner: What intelligence could be more important than the arrival of the "Grandmaster"?
[Schreiber: The elements constituting this event are not limited to "WHO"... While the "Grandmaster" certainly carries significant weight, her presence here, limited by the current situation and the timing of her appearance, makes her role less crucial.]
[Schreiber: Moreover, the misalignment between her strengths and the problems the current "Order" needs to solve is actually quite different. Don't be overly superstitious about strength or direct combat power; don't let their prominence prevent you from properly assessing a person's potential and value.]
[Schreiber: This is almost becoming a collective phenomenon of "authority worship" within the "Player," you know, and this is not the mentality of a good "Player," especially a member of the "Psychology Society."]
[Skinner: Your professional level is truly commendable; this was indeed my oversight.]
Skinner: So what exactly is the intelligence you're bringing?
[Schreiber: Actually, it's not entirely unrelated to "Grandmaster"; it's more of a follow-up effect of the emergence of "Grandmaster."]
[Schreiber: Because the emergence of the "Grandmaster" compressed and accelerated the election process, completing the first round of voting and public announcement today, the "Marauders" also took some precautions in advance.]
[Schreiber: The first round of voting results for the "Player Mutual Aid Society" has been released, and a relatively unknown candidate named "Penglai" has topped the list—that's because the "Marauders" used some kind of trickery to put her there.]
[Schreiber: Now, the "Marauders" have made their move in response to the changes in "Order," and it's time for "Order" to respond.]
[Schreiber: This should mean that the clash between the two organizations will likely occur sooner than we anticipated—so I'm planning to take action.]
[Schreiber: After all, the way the "Marauders" sent "Penglai" up there seems to be related to soul and mental interference. I'm quite interested in that.]
[Schreiber: Although I looked into "Penglai" and found it uninteresting, I'm very interested in "Cold Cicada" behind it.]
[Schreiber: I came specifically to let you know so you wouldn't fall behind.]
Lin Yu sent the message in one go and then waited for Skinner's reply.
His "kind" notification was naturally because...
Lin Yu really didn't want to see the "Psychology Society" fall behind because of poor intelligence.
To be precise...
The "Order" and the "Marauders" could erupt into a full-scale battle at any moment... If the "Psychology Society" tries to remain uninvolved, Lin Yu will be truly disappointed!
