Chapter 141 Rain and Thunder
Not only Ji Jue, but everyone present fell silent, including Lei Yaoxing, who was staring over. For a moment, his expression twitched, as if he felt something.
But he didn't even have time to think because the second car had already stopped at the door.
A luxury car that is just like Lou Dashao's trip, and it is equipped with Guangyuan!
Walking out of it was a slightly fat man who looked ordinary. Apart from the high-end brands he wore and the famous watch on his wrist, there was nothing surprising about him, but it made the atmosphere tense again.
Even better than before.
"Long time no see, Mr. Tong."
Lei Yaoxing shook hands with those who came, and now the CEO of Tong Group nodded slightly and was handed a wreath.
"My old man said that after getting to know Mr. Lei over the years, he asked me to give him a gift."
Lei Yaoxing was silent for a moment and gave up his position:
"……please."
So, Tong Shengnian stepped in, took two sticks of incense and lit them. After clasping his hands together and silently praying for blessings, he also ignored the invitation of the emcee and turned around and walked towards the back of the venue.
Just as Ji Jue's eyelids were twitching, he sat next to the elder of Chongguang Church.
And the Tong family!
Immediately afterwards, the arriving vehicle was an Imperial Yaoying with low-key and luxurious decoration. Stepping out of the door opened by the driver was a short-haired middle-aged woman with serious makeup.
Ji Jue has met this person before.
In Professor Ye's workshop...
When Professor Ye introduced himself to her, Ji Jue's smile was brighter than that of a kindergarten baby... because she was the manager and plenipotentiary representative of the Global Artisans Association Taiyi Ring in Yacheng!
At the same time, after offering incense, he did not leave. Instead, he walked towards the back and sat next to the elder. After a few brief greetings, he nodded to Ji Jue and remained silent.
Ji Jue's scalp became increasingly numb.
The subsequent appearances are also heavyweight characters...
The local branch president of the Star Core Association, the confidential secretary of the city hall, the special representative of the Governor's Office, the business manager of Forever Bank, and the person in charge of Global Heavy Industries and Unbounded Communications.
In the end, after ignoring all the rules, the car parked at the entrance of the farewell hall.
Well, it's not a good car, nor is it bad, but it doesn't matter whether it's good or bad, because it has the logo of the Yacheng Safety Bureau on it.
The young man who came down from above straightened his sleeves and walked in.
He ignored Lei Yaoxing, let alone Lei Wuye, and didn't even bother to put on the incense.
He didn't even look at the coffin.
His face was expressionless from beginning to end, and his originally handsome face also carried an indifference that would make people 30,000 miles away, as he walked in nonchalantly.
So, facing many angry looks, he walked to the end, greeted Tong Shengnian, and then sat down next to Ji Jue.
Ji Jue's expression twitched, and then he just wanted to imitate Chen Yubo and shrink his head.
Before he decided to sit somewhere else, he heard a voice next to him.
The indifferent man turned back to look at him, but his expression was faintly warm, "Ji Jue?"
"Uh...hello?"
Ji Jue nodded and looked at the face he had never seen before, "What's your surname?"
"It's free of charge, Tong, Tongshan."
The person in charge of Department 1, who serves as the temporary acting director of Yacheng Security Bureau, introduced himself and shook hands with Ji Jue: "Before coming here, Director Wen specifically asked me to look after you. Now it seems that I don't have to worry about anything."
"Well……"
In an instant, Ji Jue breathed a sigh of relief and felt that all the pressure was gone.
Oh my god, with such a big Buddha placed next to him, even if Lei Yaoxing took out his knife, he wouldn't be able to lose even a hair on it, right?
Isn’t it time to feel safe?!
Before he hurriedly climbed up the pole and said "one of my own", he heard Tongshan's words: "Not only Director Wen, but also my silly sister often talks about you."
"ah?"
Ji Jue's instinct was not good, "What did you say about me?"
Tongshan was silent for a brief moment, and then the corners of his mouth seemed to curl up, "I don't need to repeat what happened to Brother Guanzi, right?"
Ji Jue's expression twitched again and he couldn't stop at all.
I knew it! I knew it!
After nineteen years of innocence, one mistake resulted in eternal regret!
Can't we just ignore this and not mention it?! Why do I suddenly feel like I will chase myself for the rest of my life?!
"Ahem, that's funny."
"I don't find it funny."
Contrary to Ji Jue's expectation, Tongshan shook his head seriously, so serious that Ji Jue even wondered if he was joking: "I think what you said is very good, and what you do is also good.
These days, there are too few people who dare to speak out what is in their hearts and then actually do it down-to-earth."
He suddenly asked: "Are you interested in coming to the Security Bureau?"
"Uh..." Ji Jue's expression twitched. He originally wanted to say that he was already an informant, but in other people's eyes, I'm afraid I can't even call him an informant, right?
Tong Shan said: "I know that the messy things in the second part are very troublesome, but you don't have to worry, you are welcome at any time in the first part. No, with your ability, I'm afraid you can directly enter the third part, right?"
In addition to the logistics or financial departments, the Yacheng Security Bureau has a total of three main departments, which are the one, two and three that everyone talks about to save trouble.
Usually, the Security Bureau that everyone sees is the Second Department, which is the largest and most complex of the three departments. It is responsible for the security of various areas in Yacheng. This is why Wen Wen laughs at herself as a police officer.
The first department is the Operations Department that Tongshan is currently in charge of. It is directly subordinate to the director and can be called an elite federal civil servant. It is responsible for the defense of Yacheng and the safety of important figures.
The one that occupies the leading position is the Tianyuan First Department. The internal management and discipline are far more stringent than those of the Second Department. The treatment and benefits are also exaggerated and scary. The wild followers of Tianyuan all dream of taking the public examination and want to pass it.
It’s the career editor. And only those in the first department can have access to the Federation’s orthodox Tianyuan Matrix and various inherited techniques...
You know, the Empire and the Federation are the only Tianyuan base camps in the world!
The three departments he mentioned constitute the smallest and most mysterious part. The Technical Maintenance Department is responsible for the maintenance of important facilities in Yacheng, including but not limited to large-scale war fortifications or various alchemical items... and even Tiangong and...
Forbidden creation. The internal staff relies on the supply of the federation and consumes materials without even frowning.
If Ji Jue could get one of these offers half a year ago, he would be so happy that he couldn't close his legs. But now, it's not a pity that he doesn't care at all.
Chaosheng Workshop is my home, and Professor Ye is the only one in my heart!
Ji Jue shook his head without thinking: "I still focus on my studies for the time being, sorry."
Tongshan nodded slightly, not surprised, but handed over a business card with both hands and solemnly said: "If you are interested, please contact me at any time."
"must."
Ji Jue carefully put it away, and then he felt the increasingly solemn and depressing atmosphere in the farewell hall.
Before he knew it, everyone around him was already full!
Moreover, looking at the past, there are high and low in all walks of life, but among them... none of them are desolate.
First the elders of the Chongguang Church, then Tong Shengnian of the Tong family, Taiyi Huan, and then Tong Shan, the acting director of the Security Bureau, were like huge rocks smashed into a pool of water, setting off an undercurrent of chaos.
When all of them are sitting here, this funeral is destined to not be Huangji's internal affairs.
Rather, it's more like...
...Invoke an army to investigate?
Suspicions suddenly appeared in Ji Jue's mind for no reason, but perhaps, this was the only way to explain all of this.
Half a month of dark side war is really too long.
And as the struggle gets out of control, it affects more than just Huangji. The hospital and rescue of the Sogo Church, the business and management of the Tong family, the material transportation and contraband control of the Taiyi Ring, the neutrality and unity of the Star Core Association, the municipal government
The operation of the hall, the safety of the Governor's Mansion, and most importantly... the order and stability of Yacheng.
It is true that as long as human nature still exists, there is destined to be a wilderness of chaos and disorder, but now too much blood has been shed in the wilderness, overflowing into the world outside the wilderness and flowing to everyone's door.
And until another guest sat down after offering incense, the whole farewell hall was already dead silent, and you could hear a needle drop.
The middle-aged man Shi Shiran, who looked somewhat similar to Tongshan, sat down. He was wearing a casual suit and had a handsome and unruly demeanor, quite a bit of temperament.
After nodding to Tong Shengnian, he patted Tong Shan's shoulder affectionately and sat next to him, "Long time no see, Ah Shan."
"Hello, fourth uncle."
Tongshan nodded solemnly and greeted.
"Oh, relax, my fourth uncle is still hesitant about whether to take the title. Wouldn't it be more interesting this way?"
The fourth uncle smiled and waved his hands indifferently, saying without any solemnity: "A Hua was so angry that he ate several extra bowls of rice after he came home last time. Is your brother-sister relationship more interesting?"
Next to them, Ji Jue and Lao Tang looked at their noses and hearts. They sat upright, not daring to express their anger, and shrank their heads obediently.
The moment he appeared on the stage, he had already identified the mark on the opponent's chest...
The brooch of Haizhou Reading Club.
It seems like a harmless club, but who would imagine that this ghost place is the largest information exchange organization for the etheric chosen ones in the entire Haizhou?
The man whom Tong Shan calls Fourth Uncle is the natural choice of the Tong family. Now the president of the Haizhou Reading Club, Tong Ting. At this moment, when he sits down here, he represents the entire Yacheng family.
The Aether Chosen One.
But among the many visitors present, the Tong family accounted for three representatives of the industry, the Security Bureau and the Ether family. From this, we can get a vague glimpse of the terrifying influence of the usually low-key Tong family...
But unexpectedly, Tong Ting was not as stubborn or brave as Tong Hua. Tong Ting never opened the etheric eye from beginning to end, nor did he look around. After greeting Ji Jue solemnly and praising the young man, Tong Ting
, and said nothing more.
As visitors arrived one after another, sat down or left after paying homage, the farewell hall that originally seemed a bit empty was now so crowded that it was difficult to find a seat.
The busy staff planned to move benches inside, but Lei Yaoxing, who had been silent the whole time, raised his hand and waved.
There will be no more guests.
In other words, the last guest has already arrived in front of him.
"Sorry, there was a delay on the way. I'm late."
In the wheelchair, the slightly pale man coughed twice and told the master of ceremonies beside him: "Before I come, I asked someone to buy some flowers. Please help me put them up."
Behind him, the one-armed old man waved his hand and put away his umbrella, and a thin stream of rainwater fell from the tip of the umbrella, with a faint scarlet color.
"elder brother!"
Chen Yubo, who was shivering at the end, finally raised his head. After seeing the person clearly, his eyes lit up and he almost shed tears.
But except him, no one spoke.
There was only the faint sound of the wheelchair rolling over the ground, straight into the mourning hall.
The mourning hall was silent and the rain could be heard softly.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
In front of the soul, Chen Xingzhou raised his eyes calmly and greeted Lei Yaoxing: "Young Master Xing, are you okay?"
This moment is exactly like that moment.
In the long, sultry tidal breeze, lightning flashed across the dark clouds in the distance.
There was thunder from the sky.
