Two Slimes

Huan Yu also received an invitation.

However, he did not accept the invitation in the name of Huan Yu, but instead took the place of another Time Walker.

The Time Walker never revealed his true identity; he was one of the best at protecting the identities of his subordinates.

The outside world was unaware that he was his subordinate.

That's why he stayed at the Hilton Hotel, rather than the JW Marriott Hotel where all the big shots of the Time Walker stayed together.

Huan Yu believed that many people in the federation were still using this method.

He wasn't particularly interested in organizations like the Matrix or Red Leaf, which were clearly scheming. The Inner World Consortium still hadn't given up on finding strategic resources like Time Walker, and it would be foolish to let others know his identity information so easily.

Moreover, he speculated that Momiji was likely a branch of Jiuzhou.

The leader of the Red Leaf Clan is a girl named Jiu Ran. Both Kunlun and Jiuzhou had previously competed for her, hoping that she could join Jiuzhou or Kunlun.

The girl disappeared for a few days, and when she reappeared, she had founded Red Leaf...

This is unlikely to be Kunlun's usual practice; it's more like Jiuzhou was founded to increase its influence within the country.

After all, in name only, Jiuzhou is only in charge of foreign affairs, so he has to use a puppet organization to influence the domestic situation.

Through the Bluetooth headset, Zard was still chattering away. "Boss, what's your outfit this time? It'll be easier for me to recognize you. I bought a set of little dinosaur props. These days, the media is saying that anyone who doesn't act weird is a big shot, someone with a sense of shame. So let's do the opposite and just act weird. That way, the Time Walker."

"Stop talking, your words are giving me a headache and my eyes hurt," Huan Yu said calmly. "Keep an eye on the lobby of the Marriott Hotel and tell me when you see Bai Zhou."

"Do we really have to squat in the lobby...?"

"Certainly."

"And what about you, boss?"

"You don't need to worry about that."

Zard asked, "By the way, boss, what exactly is the purpose of this joint meeting that Kunlun is holding? Have any of your people within Kunlun said anything about it?"

Huan Yu calmly replied, "It's nothing more than a few things. First, establish the Time Walker' Federation, elect a chairman, vice-chairman, and standing directors to promote self-governance among Time Walker, so that everyone at least has a sense of belonging. Second, this is Kunlun's main objective: they want to establish the Time Walker' Tribunal."

"The courtroom?" Zard asked curiously.

"Yes," Huan Yu said, "The information we have so far is that there has been an increase in conflicts among Time Walker in the country recently, so an arbitration tribunal is needed. In addition, they will issue new rules to prohibit Time Walker from revealing information about other Time Walker in the Inner World. If someone maliciously reveals someone else's information, the victim can return to the Outer World to apply for Kunlun's sanctions. The tribunal will sentence the leaker, and Time Walker are not allowed to use vigilante justice among themselves."

Overall, whether it's establishing a federation or a tribunal, the ultimate goal is to protect Time Walker and maintain normal order within the country.

"That's great!" Zard exclaimed. "Does this mean that if I mess with Daylight, they can't just kill me anymore?"

Huan Yu said irritably, "Can't you be a little more dignified?!"

Zard said, "The law protects everyone; obeying the law is everyone's responsibility."

Huan Yu said with a toothache, "Actually, in my opinion, this thing is designed to restrict Jiuzhou. As far as I know, Jiuzhou has used vigilante justice several times within its borders, without going through the proper legal channels... However, this has nothing to do with us."

"By the way, boss, you haven't said what you're dressed like yet. How am I going to recognize you when you get to the conference center the day after tomorrow?"

Huan Yu paused for a moment. "My itinerary this time is confidential."

Zard asked suspiciously on the phone, "Boss, when did you start keeping your schedule a secret from me? Are you afraid I'll really sell you to Bai Zhou?! Or are you wearing some kind of shady prop?!"

Huan Yu hung up the phone expressionlessly, then put on her Pikachu gadget and walked outside.

The hotel elevator doors opened, and he looked at the other two Pikachu inside, unsure of what to say.

Three Pikachu stood in the elevator, so bulky they could barely stand, pressing against each other, their costumes slightly deformed.

What a wonderful association!

Huan Yu sighed inwardly.

It's supposed to be a very serious association, but somehow the style of the art suddenly went astray.

I wonder what that usually serious Boss Zheng will think.

Just then, the Pikachu to Huan Yu's left asked in a deep voice, "Where did you buy your outfit? It looks better than ours."

Huan Yu rolled her eyes inside Pikachu. Who wants to discuss which Pikachu outfit is better?

"Don't pull me away," Liu Dezhu said from inside the slime costume.

Nan Gengchen said to another slime, "You're going the wrong way."

Liu Dezhu said irritably, "I clearly told you to buy some nice outfits, why did you buy slime?"

Nan Gengchen said, "Because the slime costumes are on sale right now, with discounts of up to 60% off."

"We're a well-known organization, after all. Can't we stop trying to save money like this?" Liu Dezhu complained helplessly.

Nan Gengchen looked around curiously in the slime. "The people in Zhengcheng are all so cheerful. This is my first time in Zhengcheng, and I didn't expect them to be so kind and friendly. They're always smiling."

Liu Dezhu thought for two seconds and said seriously, "Have you ever considered that maybe the two of us are the funniest?"

Nan Gengchen: "... It seems that's really true."

The two entered the JW Marriott Hotel and showed the QR code to the front desk.

The staff member politely asked, "Excuse me, are you Liu Dezhu and Nan Gengchen from the group 'Daytime'?"

Nan Gengchen was about to say yes when Liu Dezhu kicked him and then said seriously to the staff, "No, please check in as soon as possible."

He said to Nan Gengchen, "When you get back to the hotel, quickly take the mask out of your suitcase and put it on. I've had enough of this slime of yours."

For Liu Dezhu, Bai Zhou's reputation was incredibly sacred, and it absolutely could not be ruined by two slimes.

However, at that moment, Liu Dezhu turned his head and suddenly saw a small green dinosaur staring intently at him from not far away.

The little dinosaur's design features a hollow head, with the human face actually located on the dinosaur's neck.

So at first glance, the little dinosaur's pair of eyes on its neck looked extremely sharp and eerie.

The next second, Liu Dezhu saw the little dinosaur rushing towards him, its head bobbing up and down in a particularly comical way.

Zard approached the two and asked in a low voice, "You two... during the daytime?!"

Liu Dezhu, forcing a smile, asked, "Who are you?"

Zard: "It's me! Zard, Daylight's best friend! Which two of you are Daylight's friends?"

Liu Dezhu: "I am Hu Xiaoniu."

Nan Gengchen: "I am Zhang Tianzhen."

Zard: "Oh, it's you two. I wanted to ask, is Qing Chen still alive? Did your boss come this time? By the way, is he also staying at the Marriott? Why haven't I seen him? Or did he, like our boss, take someone else's place?"

In the blink of an eye, Zard sold Huan Yu.

Huan Yu took someone else's place so that no one would know he was there...

However, there were thousands of people attending the meeting, so even if Liu Dezhu and his team knew that Huan Yu had infiltrated, they wouldn't be able to find her in a short time.

In fact, Liu Dezhu didn't worry about this matter much. The message he posted in He Xiaoxiao's group was sent by his boss.

As for the task of finding Huan Yu, that was done by the boss himself.

In the boss's own words, Liu Dezhu and Nan Gengchen are no match for Huan Yu, so there's no need to bother.

Looking at the chatterbox in front of him, Liu Dezhu didn't know which of the series of questions to answer, "No comment."

He suspected that Zard wasn't really looking for answers; he just wanted someone to talk to.

Outside Zhengcheng West Station, Qing Chen stood silently in the cold wind.

The young man next to him asked in a low voice, "Why did you come to the station?"

Qing Chen is currently unaware of the relationship between Qing Yuan and this young man, nor how they interact. He can only judge Qing Yuan's character based on the young man's attitude.

Judging from the humble manner in which the young man spoke, Qing Yuan was probably not an easy person to get along with.

So he thought for a moment, then glanced sideways at the young man and said, "Is this something you can ask?"

The young man quickly lowered his head. "I'm sorry, Second Boss."

"Second boss? "Qing Chen asked, somewhat puzzled.

Qing Chen asked the young man beside him, "What are you doing here?"

The young man said respectfully, "Second Boss, Liu Ning had something come up, so I'm here to pick up the people from our organization who are coming from all over. He said he asked the Third Boss for leave, but the Third Boss probably didn't tell you."

Qing Chen was puzzled. Just how many bosses did this shady organization Qing Yuan belonged to have?

Why are they like bandits in the mountains, with a big boss, a second boss, a third boss, and all that nonsense?

However, one thing is certain: Qing Yuan is not the true ruler of this organization; there is a big boss above Qing Yuan.

The fact that Qing Yuan was able to hide in City No. 10, making it impossible for the Kite Falcon to find him, suggests that this organization was helping him.

Moreover, this organization has a wide reach, with members not only in Zhengcheng and Taicheng, but also seemingly in other cities.

Qing Chen said coldly, "Can you just change this kind of fixed job at will? What's wrong with him that's delaying important matters?"

The young man cautiously explained, "Liu Ning's girlfriend invited him to meet her parents..."

Qing Chen sneered, "Let him..."

Qing Chen originally wanted to tell Liu Ning to break up with his girlfriend, since Liu Ning wasn't his subordinate and had nothing to do with him.

But then I thought Liu Ning's girlfriend was quite innocent, so I let it go.

Just then, Sun Chuci and the others suddenly came out. They wanted to greet Qing Chen, but when they saw the people next to Qing Chen, they immediately shut up.

They avoided each other as if pretending not to know each other.

As a result, the young man called out to them, "Sun Chuci."

After being called to a stop, Sun Chuci politely said, "Senior Li Yi, it's been a long time."

Qing Chen glanced at Sun Chuci, then at the young man beside him. "You two know each other?"

He remembered that Tuanzi had mentioned this name in the car: Li Yi, Dragon Lake Commune!

So, Qing Yuan was actually from Dragon Lake Commune?

No, it seems to be more complicated.

Dragon Lake Commune is not a secretive organization; some information about it can be found online.

The Dragon Lake Commune was originally called Zhenbei Commune, founded by a graduate from the Longhu Town University Town in the south of Zhengzhou.

It was named Zhenbei Commune because its founder was named Wang Zhenbei.

A classmate of Wang Zhenbei revealed on Tieba that he used to be a minister in the student union at school, and had a strong bureaucratic attitude, which led to a strong bureaucratic atmosphere within the Zhenbei Commune as well.

Later, Zhenbei Commune absorbed more college students Time Walker and changed its name to Dragon Lake Commune.

In this Dragon Lake Commune, there are no big bosses, second bosses, or Third Boss; there is only one boss, Wang Zhenbei.

Qing Chen speculated that the organizations Li Yi and Qing Yuan belong to now are likely formed through a merger.

Dragon Lake Commune was merged into an organization.

Just like a bandit stronghold, there was originally only one leader. Then someone from another stronghold came to join them with guns, cannons, and men, and became the second leader.

Qing Chen believes that the second and Third Boss within this organization are a unique feature created to maintain balance after the merger of different organizations...

In a way, it really does resemble bandits occupying a mountain stronghold.

At this moment, the young man named Li Yi explained to Qing Chen, "This person is Sun Chuci. I mentioned him in our meeting before. He is a rare talent, but he has always been unwilling to join. Recently, the Third Boss has also lost patience, so he wants to blacklist them to set an example for the other Time Walker in Zheng City."

After he finished speaking, Tuanzi, Sun Chuci, and the others who had been very enthusiastic towards Qing Chen in the car looked downcast, as if they had categorized him as one of Li Yi's group.

Qing Chen didn't mind. He smiled at Li Yi and said, "Making an example of someone is the right thing to do. These disobedient Time Walker should be taught a lesson."

After all, if your Dragon Lake Commune doesn't push Sun Chuci and his group to the brink, how can you solidify Sun Chuci's determination to cling to Qing Chen's coattails?

Sun Chuci said coldly, "The actions of Dragon Lake Commune in Zhengcheng are something that all the Time Walker and laymen despise. I know you have found a new backer, but sooner or later you will understand what the will of the people is. You should know that in this world, there are always people stronger than you, and there is always something beyond your understanding. Even someone as powerful as Bai Zhou has never bullied the weak."

Li Yi sneered, "How do you know what Bai Zhou has done behind the scenes? Besides, given our current background, what is Bai Zhou anyway?"

He thought to himself that the second boss standing next to him was the legendary Shadow Candidate, a real big shot.

With someone like that supporting them, daytime is nothing.

Qing Chen glanced at Li Yi silently, without saying a word.

There was a kind of compassion for the intellectually disabled in his eyes.
