Yin Minghong's purpose in volunteering to join the Patrol Team was naturally clear to Le Yu. In fact, he had expected it long ago.

He was an old White Night Walker himself, so he knew the White Night Walkers' tricks inside out: with enough effort, red apricots would grow over the wall; worry not about the road ahead lacking a kindred spirit—there would always be an apricot branch poking over the wall; all feasts must end, and there was no red apricot White Night wouldn't steal.

Poaching talent was one of White Night's primary methods of expansion.

Just look at Yin Yinyin, Lin Jinyao, and Li Mingsheng. A White Night assassin, a military academy teacher, and the head of the Chief Clerk's Department—they had not been White Night people before, yet all eventually became White Night Walkers. This showed that White Night's poaching skills had reached the level of a consummate old scumbag.

At this level, Le Yu could not help praising the Silver Blood Society's powerful vitality. Faced with White Night's agitation, not a single person in the Silver Blood Society had defected. If anyone had defected, then the "Yin Yinyin" who provided Silver Blood intelligence would never have been valued by Profound Candle White Night.

What did this prove? It proved that one's backside conquered all. The merchants' descendants in the Silver Blood Society had not been seduced by White Night's rhetoric. They stood firmly on the side of the capitalist class.

To be fair, that really was impressive. Although "the mind follows the class" was instinctive, many class traitors still appeared. For example, during Star Engraving Prefecture's city-seizure plan, Le Yu had learned from Yin Yinyin's memories that quite a few of the White Night Walkers involved in the operation were officials, merchants, and military officers.
