Old-time musicians

Chapter 593: SOS

"I just learned everything you said."

In the heavily guarded small conference room, pale carbonized lamps shone directly on the desk. A middle-aged man over fifty years old, thin, with dry long hair was stirring the coffee spoon.

This man was Laxus, who was sent by the Special Patrol Office to work with Owen in charge of the affairs of the Uflansell region.

A patrol chief of the third level of the profound knowledge.

Laxus and Owen have worked together for a long time. In fact, he is an old subordinate of Owen's father Colin.

The special thing is that Laxus was only a senior investigator two years ago, but at the same time, he is also a musicologist and composer. After confirming his promotion to "Forging Lion", he was directly promoted to the third level of the profound knowledge with the help of the keys provided by the organization.

"I want to know your opinion." Owen paced in the conference room.

"What do you want to hear?" Laxus picked up the coffee and sniffed the bitter and mellow white smoke.

"Turner Art Hall announced that Caroline Van Nin will conduct the Old Symphony Orchestra in seven days." Owen did not stop walking, his words were clear, low and indifferent.

"The news came out of nowhere, with all the time, place, people, content and other elements in the notice. In a sense, it formed an ironic contrast with the unclear search plan of my department. At least, I should let them know who is the party that approves and supervises, and who can appear on the stage at what time and where, which cannot be determined by "declaration." "At the same time, I hope to know how you will carry out the targeted search plan, and I can cooperate with it in time. Since the prey came out to show himself once, and claimed that he would not show himself again in seven days, then if he was taken out in advance on the third day to "passively show himself to the public", his arrogance would also collapse in an ironic way." "An hour ago, I ordered all the investigation teams of the light and dark lines to stop their actions." Laxus slowly pushed the coffee cup he had taken a sip of to the side. Owen stopped suddenly and turned around when he heard this. "Are you kidding? Or are you being sarcastic?"

Laxus shook his head slowly: "If you want to know my opinion, then this is it. If you still have the patience to listen to more, then I do not recommend that you use the low-level means of "approval and restrictions" to deal with this problem."

A long-accumulated nameless anger suddenly surged from Owen's heart, and his tone suddenly rose to a higher level, shaking the windows of the meeting room faintly: "Mr. Laxus, since approval and restrictions are low-level means, then what are high-level means? Is it like you directly shutting down and neglecting your duties?"

Laxus did not mind Owen's overreaction, and smiled calmly and asked: "What was the original response of their music director to you at that time?"

".Every concert needs your strong support, and our theater chain must not do illegal operations." Owen looked at him coldly and repeated Walter's words.

"Such a watertight and sharp response, do you think a person with Walter's level of sophistication can say it?" Laxus narrowed his eyes and confronted him.

"What a good 'need our strong support', what a good 'don't do illegal business', it seems to be asking for help, what if we don't support it?. The performance will be postponed and the situation will be reported truthfully. The cultural department has not passed the review. Please understand all the fans who bought tickets, booked hotels, adjusted social schedules, and stayed in Uflansell and wait patiently for follow-up notices?"

"Sir Owen, do you think that in the above process, in addition to making you feel refreshed, your actual interests and reputation have benefited or damaged? The actual interests and reputation of the organization have benefited, Or damaged?"

"Do you think Walter's words are a request, humility, weakness, or a response, showdown, or threat?"

"Do you think that with Fanning's anti-reconnaissance and escape capabilities - he made the whole world think he was dead in the past two years - now that we have spread the word through the mouthpiece of the Turner Art Hall, we can find his whereabouts within seven days?"

"Laxus, do you think that the series of words you just said are very powerful and your vision is very experienced and ruthless?" Owen walked to the other party's seat with a gloomy face and slowly asked this question.

He has always been such a person, with a clear understanding of himself. Due to studying the mystery of "ashes", his temper is narrow-minded and irritable. Fortunately, after each emotional peak, his mind will cool down.

"It is really stupid to spend energy arguing with colleagues, but today, because of Fanning's emergence, you have fallen into this stupidity. In fact, you have been rejecting other people's proposals and turning the opinions that could have been explained in one or two sentences into a series of oppressive rhetorical questions without any substantial output. What about your own solution? What about your superb level as the chief inspector of the Triple Inspectorate of Suixiao? The leader has repeatedly emphasized the "mysterious leadership art" this year. In the end, your conclusion is that we should let those artists despise the authority of our department and come and go on the stage unscrupulously?"

"What are you laughing at?"

Seeing the other party's facial reaction to his words, Owen felt that the anger he had been suppressing was about to break through the critical point.

"You took the initiative to quote the leader's instructions." Laxus's withered facial muscles pulled out a smile.

"But have you ever thought about why it is neither the mysterious art of 'service' nor the mysterious art of 'killing'? Oh, you are definitely not one of the conservative right-wing elements in the department, but due to some personal hatred, your ideas have seriously leaned to the other extreme. Every word used in the leader's instructions is precise. Why is it called 'leadership'? What is 'leadership'? Only when a group is useful to us and is part of the order that my department needs to form, it needs leadership! It seems that you still need to work hard to correctly understand Mr. Poglelich's intentions. You don't quite understand many leaders' interpretations and instructions of the new situation."

"Yes, what I don't understand is why the organization made such an arrangement on the issue of personnel adjustments in Uvlansell County." Owen sneered.

Perhaps the organization's arrangement was based on purely work considerations, but a former subordinate suddenly changed and directly surpassed himself and became the relationship between the principal and deputy.

And there is no possibility for him to climb up.

"Laxus, your words are always so condescending and 'correct'. Should I praise you in the tone of a subordinate, 'You are guiding me'?"

"But the reason why we are sitting here today is just because, in the choice of personal research field many years ago - the choice of path in the sense of equality - you chose musicology and composition, while I chose fighting and stealing skills?"

Fortunately, I passed through the first door a few years earlier, otherwise, I would not be qualified to be promoted to the Profound One, and my remaining life would be less than 20 years.

Isn't this ironic and ridiculous?

"You think this is important, right?" Laxus suddenly sighed when he heard it.

Owen was a little surprised and didn't know what he wanted to say.

"For you, it is extremely regrettable and unfair to suddenly lose the qualification to climb further because of the reason of "not being a great artist"? Do you think that in the current new calendar year 916, rising higher will bring strength, power, glory, transcendence, and the satisfaction of further understanding the truth of the world? If the control rules have not changed, you would not want to rise to the Order Executive if you have the chance, right?"

Owen fell silent because of these three questions, and Laxus then slowly uttered another sentence:

"Recently, including my department, several senior officials of official organizations have unexpectedly received a distress signal from Chief Inspector Rudolf Hemon and Norma Gon."

A distress signal?

Some unknown horror suddenly made Owen's teeth shiver.

Compared to the various horrors and distortions he witnessed in his inspection career, or the calmness after hearing the news of the two people's death from Mr. Wax, at this moment he only felt a bucket of freezing cold water soaking his whole body!
