The Social Life of the Supreme God

"The taboo that can kill other taboos..." Jiang Ye silently repeated Qingcai's words. Then she looked at Li Ren on the other side of the glass again and said meaningfully: "It seems that this child still has a lot of secrets."

Jiang Ye then turned to look at Qingcai: "Qin Dan, you just said... the committee needs to decide whether to hire him or accommodate him."

She turned around, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip: "My decision on this is-"

“Not hired.”

Immediately, before Qingcai, who looked regretful, could ask the reason, Jiang Ye suddenly changed the subject: "At the same time, no containment or control measures will be taken against the Li people."

Jiang Ye's answer, which came with heavy breathing, left Qingcai stunned.

Then, Qingcai came back to his senses and patted his cheek, hesitantly speaking to confirm: "So... Minister Jiang, what do you mean?"

Seeing Qingcai, who usually doesn't smile, with a little head full of "question marks" at this moment, Jiang Ye put on a sly smile.

Then, realizing that the joke was almost over, Jiang Ye finally told the whole story: "Yesterday, during the operation against the séance, Tu Ling obtained some important intelligence."

"We thus learned about a secret force called '鯬朙郕'."

Qingcai frowned slightly when she heard this. To her, the names of the forces uttered by Jiang Ye were just a bunch of strange tones whose meanings she could not identify.

"It's normal that you don't understand." Seeing Qingcai's confused expression, Jiang Ye was not surprised: "This secret force has blocked the information pointing to them at the language level."

"Any language that attempts to describe the name of this force, its location, or its members will be distorted into something incomprehensible by the power of a certain conceptual taboo."

"Fortunately..." Jiang Ye paused for a moment, then smiled mysteriously: "...with the help of Tu Ling, we found a way to fight against this language blockade."

Immediately, Jiang Ye's fingertips flicked lightly. She controlled the tea in the cup beside her and slowly floated into the air: "So, we know..."

"…In this secret force, there are at least four conceptual taboos. They are…"

Jiang Ye said this and suddenly closed his mouth.

For a moment, in the quiet room, Qingcai stared intently at the four words made up of tea, which gradually took shape in front of her -

"…wealth."

"…language."

"…abyss."

And the final shape...

"…time."

At this point, the four words are fully formed.

Jiang Ye finally spoke again: "The one who locked the intelligence at the language level is this person..." As she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed to the word "language" floating in the air.

"As you can see, there is a loophole in this language-level blockade. And Tu Ling just found this loophole, which is..." Jiang Ye said as he moved his fingers again, re-dispersing the tea in the air: "...the power of matter is obviously superior to language."

Then, she raised her right hand and controlled the water to converge again: "In this way, we have also deciphered the name of this secret force..." When Jiang Ye's voice fell, the water floating in front of Qingcai just converged into a complete sentence again -

"…a forbidden city built in the far north - Dawn City."

Seeing this, Qingcai frowned thoughtfully.

At the same time, she began to repeat the words out of professional instinct: "Built on the land of the rich and powerful, the rich and powerful..."

"Huh? Has it really been distorted?" But as soon as she said this, Qingcai was surprised to find that her subjective words directed at Dawn City were distorted by invisible forces into incomprehensible content.

"It's very effective, isn't it?" Jiang Ye said as he walked forward and patted Qingcai on the shoulder: "From today on, in every internal meeting, the matter of '鯬朙郕' will be mentioned frequently... I think everyone will get used to this phenomenon soon."

"As for now..."

Jiang Ye said this and looked towards the one-way glass again, where Li Ren was eating cockroach rice in big mouthfuls, looking up from time to time at the canteen auntie who had a flushed face and looked very pleased, and giving a thumbs up repeatedly.

"Now we know that the enemy wants to get the Li people for some reason." Jiang Ye slowly put away his smile: "Those giant beasts that cross the border time and time again and appear in the river have confirmed this."

"And coincidentally..." Jiang Ye's expression became more serious: "Ren Li just happened to disappear not long ago."

Hearing this, Qingcai's face was startled. Then she hesitated and spoke with worry in her tone: "According to Minister Gu's report, Minister Ren... seemed to have disappeared out of thin air when he took elevator No. 44, and there was no trace left at the scene."

"Yes." Jiang Ye nodded, and then she smiled: "No matter where Renli went...it's not our business."

"Renli's safety is the least of our worries. His whereabouts are not our business." As she spoke, she looked up at the ceiling with a thoughtful expression.

"But..." Jiang Ye changed the subject: "Because of Renli's disappearance, the committee's external defense capabilities are in an unprecedentedly weak state."

"At this time... the guys from the 鯬朙郕 are likely to make another move in the near future to snatch Li Ren." Jiang Ye continued: "Therefore, from now on... the committee has decided to provide Li Ren with 24-hour personal protection--"

"Until all the hidden enemies are found and contained."

"Yes." After learning about the existence of the secret forces, Qingcai was not surprised by the final decision to "closely protect Li Ren". She nodded slightly in a very professional manner, and continued to confirm the details: "Then Minister Jiang. Which taboos do you think should be assigned to take charge of this important task of closely protecting Li Ren..."

But before Qingcai could finish her words, she saw Jiang Ye suddenly raised his hand with a smile. Then Jiang Ye extended his index finger and pointed at Qingcai.

"You." Jiang Ye said.

Seeing Jiang Ye pointing at him, Qing Cai asked in disbelief: "Ah? Not... me?"

Qingcai pointed to the clay pot that had just been licked clean on the other side of the glass, and said to the cafeteria auntie, "This cockroach meat is very delicious," "The meat is fresh," "It melts in your mouth," "Would you like another bowl?" and other compliments.

"Minister Jiang, are you sure you are not joking?" Qingcai felt a little dizzy in front of his eyes: "I am just an ordinary office worker. How can I protect him?"

Qingcai confirmed many times and received affirmative responses from Jiang Ye every time.

"That's right, starting today..." Jiang Ye smiled, patted Qingcai's shoulder, and said without letting anyone refuse: "... Li will live in your house." (End of this chapter)
