This world is terrible

No one dared to talk to me.

Not only was she unsure about the attitude of this "lover", but she was even more shocked by his bloody appearance.

At this moment, he did not look like a hero who was going to save the East China Sea from danger. Instead, he looked like a devil - a devil who looked down on all living beings and was lawless!
"…What are you standing there for? Why don't you clean it up quickly!"

Director Wang's shout woke the cadres from their trance. Someone immediately understood the director's look and immediately turned around and ran to the washroom without caring who was a high-ranking official or a low-ranking official.

"Yu Xi, long time no see!"

Turning around, Director Wang's face was like a blossoming flower, and he said respectfully: "Donghai is a large family with many pillar industries such as finance, trade, and shipping. It is also the first gateway of Jiuzhou to the world. A big tree attracts the wind. The Executive Bureau has been deeply involved in this, and there are many factors to consider. It is not that your subordinates deliberately make it difficult for Yu Xi to visit."

He was responding to the situation where the knocking sound was heard before the actual sound was seen. If you put yourself in his shoes, it was a fairly standard answer.

But a detail in the words made some cadres feel inexplicably upset.

——"Subordinates".

Strictly speaking, this self-proclaimed title should not appear in Director Wang's remarks in this situation.

Anyone who sits on a high chair in this industry knows that the Judgment Seat holds supreme power over the Executive Bureau.

But remember, this sacred power does not belong to one person, not even the self-proclaimed "emperor". Only when all the judges are present and reach a consensus on a certain issue, this power can be like a sword drawn from its sheath, invincible.

in other words.

The "lover's" uninvited visit at this moment cannot represent the Judgment Seat, nor can he represent the Executive Bureau. He is just a representative of a noble family, but he makes a director bow down and call himself a "subordinate."

what is this?
"..."

Looking at Director Wang's flattering smile, the shadow hidden under the expression of "lover" He Xi seemed to dissipate a little.

Without any politeness, he stepped forward, patted Director Wang on the shoulder, and said straight to the point: "Wang Peng, I didn't want to trouble you."

"But you guys in the East China Sea acted too fast. You almost let me get away before I even found me."

“People…people?”

Director Wang followed his "lover" with a confused look on his face: "Who is it?"

"Gao Yiyi."

The "lover" turned around and said, "You guys from the East China Sea were very popular on the Internet in the first half of the year, but your personal information disappeared like a drop in the ocean... Should we say that you protected it well, or not?"

although.

but.

Director Wang was speechless: Have we protected this person’s personal information?

"Why? Which noble daughter of yours is she? Don't want to tell me?"

The "lover" narrowed his long and narrow eyes slightly, and Director Wang, who was aware of this danger signal, hurriedly explained: "Yu Xi! This really has nothing to do with us. We have never blocked the information of a person named 'Gao Yiyi'. There must be some misunderstanding!"

Seeing the genuine fear on the man's face, the "lover" finally showed a rare moment of surprise on his face, but he soon returned to normal.

"Is there such a strange thing?"

Director Wang nodded hurriedly, hoping to send this plague god away, but the next moment, an even more desperate order came out of the mouth of this glamorous noble.

"I remember several places where she appeared, namely, Expo Plaza in Binshui District, Anshan Road in Binshui District, Zhenghe Road in Leshu District, and Renhe Home in Leshu District...right, Uncle Tang?"

Uncle Tang nodded affirmatively.

"Well, in that case, Wang Peng, I order you to stop the operation of trains involving the disaster shelters in the above-mentioned places." When saying this, the "lover" hesitated slightly.

But this hesitation did not come from his self-examination of his inhumane orders. It was just a cost-comparison between stopping all trains in the East China Sea and stopping trains in some areas, and he finally chose the latter.

Everything that goes wrong has a price.

But compared with the huge returns from this girl, he was willing to give up some chips at the round table to the "emperor".

then.

He ignored Director Wang's desperate face and continued: "Notify the internal staff to check all the people and select those who meet the age and gender requirements until..."

"Until we find Gao Yiyi!"

boom!
Rumbling thunder exploded in the dark clouds.

"Wait, why is the timetable suddenly gone? It was clearly said that I would be on the next train!"

At the disaster shelter, someone suddenly realized that the timetable on the electronic screen had disappeared, and immediately called out sensitively: "Are you trying to do something behind the scenes? Are you going to arrange for someone to cut in line again? I——"

"Let go! Let go!"

"This gentleman!"

The security personnel at the scene restrained him and explained: "This is just a display problem, please calm down!"

"How do you ask me to calm down?!"

The man seemed to have been observing for a long time and retorted: "Where's the car? I ask you, where's the car?"

"The bus to work should have arrived twenty minutes ago, but what about now? The next bus is almost here, but the timetable is gone and you told me it was a display problem. Who are you trying to fool?"

"Did he take a detour to pick up some dignitary?!"

"Don't try to cover my mouth, I'm telling you, uh uh uh…"

Voices of doubt spread among the crowd waiting for the bus, and once spread, they quickly formed a condemnation that could not be underestimated.

The person in charge of the main control room saw this scene on the monitor and had to press the button to broadcast the report: "Everyone, please don't panic. The train encountered an emergency on the road and was temporarily delayed. The timetable disappeared because..."

After completing the input, he released the button in a daze, and sat down as if his spine had been pulled out. He looked at his assistant's pale face and said in a hoarse voice: "It's really useless."

"I don't even dare to tell them the basic truth."

"..."

"Old Bai."

The deputy looked over and said, "What if Shabin's previous experience doesn't work? If even the earth can't protect us, then we are not helping them..."

"And their accomplice?"

The person in charge closed his eyes in pain.

"Remember your responsibilities. The only things we can decide are what happens in the disaster shelter. Whether the Century Train is operational or not... has nothing to do with us."

"There is only one goal in life, and that is to be the best you can be."

Ding!
A short and urgent reminder came from the mobile phone on the table. The person in charge lit up the screen and saw a text message:
