Extraordinary pedigree

As Xia Xiu said, people from other factions have indeed approached Pansy Jane and made political promises to her, so that the intelligence officers of the reserve decision makers can join them.

In order to expand their influence and control, these factions do not hesitate to make attractive political promises to key figures within the Honkai Authority - intelligence officers who are reserve decision makers like Pansy Jane - in an attempt to lure her away. Win him into his own camp. This approach not only threatens the stability and unity within the Administration, but also challenges the existing order under the leadership of Director Xia Xiu.

Faced with Xia Xiu's straightforward statement, Pansy Jian couldn't help but feel waves in her heart.

She knew the sensitivity of such matters, so even though she was nervous, she still tried to remain calm and professional.

After Xia Xiu raised the question, she did not answer immediately. Instead, she lowered her head slightly, as if she was sorting out her thoughts. Her facial expression maintained a professional calmness, but careful observation revealed that the slight tightening at the corners of her eyes revealed inner tension.

However, this tension did not affect her judgment and calmness, but made her appear more focused and determined.

"Angels from other factions have indeed contacted me. They are right-wingers from the [Central Containment Room]. They sincerely hope that you can reduce Adam's weight in the Authority and remove the authority of some of the Authority's think tanks. To this end, They also specially co-wrote a number of articles on artificial intelligence, which I will hand over to you later for your review."

After a moment, Pansy Jian raised her head and began to answer Xia Xiu's questions calmly.

"anything else?"

The blond young man walked to the big chair in the office and sat down. His posture seemed relaxed, but the luster in his eyes made the intelligence officer dare not be careless.

To be honest, the two of them can be said to have a bad relationship.

In the past, Pansy Jian was Xia Xiu's immediate boss, while Xia Xiu was a junior; now, things have changed and she has become his subordinate.

The golden retriever who sent her to the holding cell and prison has transformed into one of the top thaumaturges in heaven and even in this world, and has overwhelming power. Now she has to rely on his light and carefully work under him. .

"The personal secretary of the resolution meeting came to see me..." Pansy Jane answered honestly.

"Which one?" After hearing the resolution meeting, Xia Xiu's originally calm expression began to show a hint of interest.

"0-04." There was no tremor in Pansy Jianjian's tone, "His secretary has contacted me, and they also hope that the management authority will not give too much management power to Adam."

"Except for the people from the Utopia faction, most of the angels in heaven don't want you to get too close to the think tank." At the end of her words, she also expressed her personal views privately. , her face revealed a kind of indifferent courage and confidence.

"I know." Xia Xiu smiled softly and simply responded.

There was an elusive depth in his smile, which seemed to be slightly approving, but mixed with a sense of inviolable distance that belonged to a superior.

Those golden eyes were obviously smiling, but they were as calm as water, without any ripples, as if his thoughts were deeply hidden, preventing anyone from prying into them.

"I would ask Adam to free up the secretariat and human resources department, and let him open up part of the public service department to the information technology department."

Xia Xiu completed the fine-tuning within the administration with just one simple sentence. He has never been a political thorn or a fool. Some compromises and decentralization are necessary.

Eliminating [Adam's] authority in the administration is the statement that most of the Heavenly Kingdom factions now want him to make as the director.

For Xia Xiu, this was a very necessary statement, and even without them, he himself planned to fine-tune certain structures within the administration.

Just like the Secretariat, whether he wants it or not, this thing will definitely be taken away from [Adam].

The work of the secretariat is usually responsible for document management, agency orders, meeting minutes and schedules, etc.; its role is not just as simple as a microphone, but its essence is the central hub for interaction between the highest authority and the grassroots. Moreover, in most organizational structures, the highest power cannot be resented by the grassroots, so the secretariat sometimes becomes the object of resentment by the grassroots - they are the incarnation of the highest power, they represent the will of the highest power, and they share that While sharing the power, you must also take the blame for the mistake of your will. This is the price.

The nature of a think tank is not suitable for taking blame.

Some political mistakes may directly affect the entire top management of the Authority because of the think tank, especially in a place like Hell's Kitchen.

Although the reputation of the fourth sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven has been demonized in the public, to some extent, this reputation is the recognition and fear of his ability. Moreover, the impact of these comments from external enemies can basically be ignored.

For him, the most important thing is the reputation within the pedigree about him - some things that are not conducive to unity can come from his hands, but not from his mouth.

If something is not conducive to unity, it is up to the Secretariat to say it.

Mistakes always occur in the Secretariat, so no matter what difficulties it faces, the Honkai Authority will be a good team that is united and trusts each other.

"About the personnel arrangements of the Secretariat..." the intelligence chief said to the director with a tentative tone.

"Let's talk about it then."

Xia Xiu chose to avoid this topic. He saw what Pansy Jane wanted, but he didn't rush it yet.

He continued to ask the intelligence chief in a neutral tone: "Besides telling you about Adam's situation, what did Secretary 0-04 say?"

"No, he didn't leave any contact information afterwards." Pansy Jane also wisely did not continue to test the issue of the Secretariat.

"Really."

Xia Xiu's golden eyes dropped slightly, and his attention was once again focused on the folder in his hand. While he was immersed in reading work, Pansy Jian, the chief of the Intelligence Department, stood aside and chose Stand quietly in an unobtrusive position.

Her expression returned to its usual indifference and calmness, her hands drooped naturally, and although her eyes were fixed on Xia Xiu, she did not disturb his thinking.

Her existence is like a silent beacon, waiting quietly, ready to accept any instructions from Xia Xiu.

"Shashasha——"

In the office, the only thing that broke the silence was the rustling sound of Xia Xiu turning over documents.

His eyes never left the pile of thick documents in his hands, and he focused and carefully reviewed every report and every record. Next to him, the intelligence chief stood quietly in an attitude that could almost be called dedicated. Her eyes occasionally switched between Xia Xiu and the documents, but most of the time she stared quietly ahead. Maintain a professional waiting posture.

In the waiting area not far away, the fox-eared boy was obviously a little bored by the scene in front of him. He yawned, but his eyes, which were full of curiosity and vitality, seemed a little dull at the moment. His eyelids drooped from time to time, as if he was fighting against sleepiness. He changed his sitting position from time to time, trying to find some fun, but soon gave up because of the professional and heavy atmosphere in the office.

After an unknown amount of time, the silence was finally broken.

Xia Xiu slowly stopped flipping through the documents in his hands. He placed the documents on the table, slowly raised his eyes, and looked casually at the waiting intelligence chief.

The moment Xia Xiu's eyes shifted, Pansy Jian seemed to have felt it. She quickly but elegantly stepped forward to meet him, and their eyes met in the air.

There was neither appreciation nor dissatisfaction in the eyes of the blond young man. He remained calm and profound as always, but it was this calmness that gave Pansy Jane even more pressure.

She stood upright, waiting for the other party's order to be given.

“There’s a lot of things in Hell’s Kitchen that I need to deal with and make decisions about right now.”

Xia Xiu leaned his head slightly on the back of the chair, tapping the folder on the table with his index finger.

"You know, as the director of the Administration, my greatest capital and confidence are as the fourth sword holder of the Kingdom of Heaven, as the crown holder, and as the holder of individual power. These are all manifestations of destruction and death, so the enemy and The aliens will be afraid of heaven, afraid of angels, and afraid of the Authority.

But fear alone does not mean obedience. The same is true for humans, and the same is true for all things - there will always be a natural enemy, which can be a certain creature or a certain concept.

Therefore, sometimes it is not that we can solve all problems by just standing up and killing indiscriminately; however, not killing indiscriminately does not mean that we cannot kill. "

The deep golden eyes of the blond young man sitting on the office chair suddenly burst out with a cold luster that made people shudder.

This kind of light is not only a visual change, but also seems to have an indescribable power. It penetrates people's hearts and makes the entire space seem to fall into an invisible winter.

Although the intelligence chief standing in front of him had always maintained a professional calmness and determination, she could not help but feel a strong coldness in the face of the sudden chill, causing her to shiver involuntarily.

This feeling is not like what ordinary low temperature can bring, but a kind of coldness gushing from deep inside, as if it can freeze thoughts and will.

"Kill a group of troublemakers, cut out the necessary cancer, win over them if you can, appease them, intimidate those who are timid enough, warn those fools who are trying to commit suicide, and get rid of all the idiots who want to have fun and stir up trouble. Send him to the cage to make a contribution." The blond young man stopped tapping his right index finger and said calmly, "This is what I and the administration need to do now - build authority."

After Xia Xiu finished speaking, Pansy Jian instinctively controlled her reaction so that her body would not overreact at this moment and cause unnecessary gaffes.

She quickly adjusted and took over her duties.

"...Director, which ones do you think should be killed and cut off?"

The bureau needs to have clear work goals, and the director's will is the driving force for the operation of the bureau.

"The municipal issues of Hell's Kitchen and the administrative issues of the Administration are the two major problems we need to solve now." Xia Xiu pulled out several files from the folder and placed them flatly on the table.

"I want to solve the municipal problems first. I don't want Hell's Kitchen in my own jurisdiction to be a living urinal. Let the people from the administration arrest those guys who defecate in the river and give me a clear New municipal treaties and publish them to all beings in Hell's Kitchen, and violators will be dealt with according to the regulations."

When Xia Xiu said this, he couldn't help but rub his eyebrows. Many rivers in Hell's Kitchen were like septic tanks, and he couldn't bear this.

The reason why he placed municipal issues before administrative issues was because this issue had reached a point where it had to be dealt with.

The city's original sewage treatment system has been almost destroyed due to the arrival of abnormal residents and the distortion of the junction. Now residents dump domestic garbage and sewage directly into the streets or water bodies, causing environmental pollution and the spread of diseases. . As urban populations grew, housing became overcrowded and sanitary conditions were poor, providing a breeding ground for the spread of disease.

The above points attracted the attention of a certain monarch living in chaos.

When He set his sights on Hell's Kitchen, His followers flocked to Hell's Kitchen and continued to spread towards Hell's Kitchen, and soon became a huge cancer in the city.

"Everything is corrupt, but all living things are immortal..." Xia Xiu whispered in his heart while looking at the documents he had arranged on the table.

【Secret Cult·Plague Land】

【Secret Cult·Vomiting Inducer】

【Secret Teaching·Universal Panacea】

【Secret Cult·Poison Kingdom】

【Secret Cult·Beautiful Killer】

These are the new mystical cults of the Lord of Plague, the Lord of Disease—the fatherly disciples of the afflicted, the nihilists, and those driven mad by disease or despair.

The Lords of Disease drove them to roam the Old World, spreading plague.

While most worshipers eventually succumb to the many diseases they carry, a few are empowered by their suffering, transforming into disgustingly twisted beings.

The urinal-like environment of Hell's Kitchen, as well as the different germs carried by multiple races, are undoubtedly a dazzling light for these loving father believers, attracting moths like them to keep flocking here.

These believers of different Great Unclean Ones formed different secret societies and entrenched themselves in Hell's Kitchen to spread the plague.

Believers of the Plague Lord view the places ravaged by the plague with reverence, cheering for every helpless and groaning life, and imagining how powerful their master is. For them, looking at these diseases and ruins, these endless reincarnations of life and death is like watching time ruthlessly slipping from their fingers like fine sand.

Now, what Xia Xiu puts on the table is the largest epidemic secret society in Hell's Kitchen, and it is also the first problem he has to deal with after taking office as the director of the administration.

"I want these fatherly believers to get out of Hell's Kitchen and out of the Authority's territory."
