13 Mink Street

The formation was closed, and the scroll had disappeared, which meant that it had been sent into that special area that was ranked among the top in the Cult of Order.

"Master, will Miss Luo Ya succeed?"

"Yes, don't forget, she is the source of evil, and it is her talent to lure the greed in things to achieve the purpose of controlling their behavior."

"Then I believe that Miss Luo Ya will definitely fulfill your orders, young master."

"It's not an order, it's a request for help, Alfred, the only 'servant' around me that I violated the principle and made an exception to approve, is you."

"It's an honor for you to say that."

"Remember, this matter is kept secret from Pu'er."

"You want to give Pu'er a big surprise?"

"No, surgery is risky after all." Karen raised a finger to his lips, "As long as I don't tell it myself, I have a chance to go back on my word."

"My subordinate understands."

"Okay, pack your things, the vacation is over, we should go back, I'm going to say goodbye."

At this moment, Murray asked: "Minister, didn't you tell God Son Marvalho that you will go back tomorrow?"

"You heard me wrong, Murray, I mean I won't see him until tomorrow."

Karen returned to the castle bedroom, Eunice was standing at the design table, drawing the design together with Ophelia.

After hearing footsteps, Eunice turned around with a ruler and a pen in her hand: "Is it too late for me to tell the kitchen to prepare dinner quickly?"

"Probably, it's too late, and it should be a long time before dinner time." Karen smiled, "How do you know I'm leaving now?"

Eunice replied, "It was the sound of your footsteps that told me."

Karen stepped forward, hugged Eunice, kissed her forehead, and said, "Sorry, I leave in a hurry every time, but next time I will come back earlier."

"Actually, it's better not to come back so soon?"

"Do you know how hurt it is for a man to hear his fiancée say such things in person?"

"Because I'm worried that I won't be able to design enough new products in time."

"Hehe, that's not a problem. What's really beautiful is the interior, not its decoration."

Ophelia, who was standing next to her, was sure that she must not have understood something.

"By the way, will Your Highness Princess want to go back with me?"

"My department hasn't been formed yet. I want to stay here and wait for the announcement. Minister Karen won't mind?"

"Of course not, I'm glad to see that you can do common interests together."

Karen turned to leave.

Ophelia asked Eunice, "Aren't you going to give it away?"

"I'll send it." Eunice walked to the French windows and opened them, just in time to see Karen coming out of the castle below. He raised his head and saw her too, stopped and waved with a warm smile on his face.

Ophelia asked, "Is this an implicit expression?"

"No, it's about being comfortable with each other."

"Get along? So, this is what you think of love?"

Her Royal Highness, who grew up listening to Bernard's love stories on Darkmoon Island, obviously couldn't understand this way of getting along, and it wasn't the love she imagined.

In her cognition, love should be two birds chirping and cuddling together. It is passionate and unrestrained, and it is not enough to get tired of being together. Add ice cubes.

"Before I met Karen, I knew I was going to be engaged to him, and he knew it, so the two of us kind of rushed to date a few times before we got engaged.

I haven't experienced a second relationship, so I can't judge whether what I'm facing now is love.

But I really like the feeling of being with him. Do you know when this feeling will be the strongest?

Even when he needs me, I need him badly. "

"I still don't fully understand, but I seem to understand something. Perhaps, this is why he chose you."

Eunice looked at Ophelia and smiled, and said, "Your Highness, the real reason is that I got to know him a little earlier than you."

"You are comforting me, I know. Because if it's really like or true love, do you still use the order?"

Eunice bent down holding a ruler while continuing to draw lines on the drawing and replied:

"Love doesn't need it, marriage needs it."

Ophelia walked to Eunice's side, stretched out her hand to gently brush a strand of her hair, and asked, "Is this your opinion?"

"It's Karen's."

"Well, it is indeed his, conservative to almost strict view of marriage."

Eunice stood up and pouted lightly. This expression made even Ophelia think she was cute.

In fact, the more I got in touch with her, the more I felt that it was no wonder that this girl could be Karen's choice. She is quiet, gentle, beautiful, and she is also very beautiful.

"Your Highness, do you believe it? In fact, I don't really dislike your feelings for Karen."

"what do you mean?"

Ophelia's eyes widened, she couldn't believe that such words would come from the mouth of the girl in front of her.

"I'm telling the truth, because I don't think I'd be mad if I saw you and Karen hugging on the couch one day."

Ophelia came behind Eunice, hugged the girl in the white dress in front of her, and cursed with a smile:

"Damn it, are you showing off your strong sense of marriage security to me because you know this scene is impossible!"

After speaking, Ophelia began to tickle her itch.

"Hehehe...don't scratch...itch..."

"I'll let you stimulate me again, and I'll let you tease me again!"

The two girls teased each other, and each other's hair was a little messy, like best friends who had been together for a long time, full of youthful atmosphere.

Yes, they are actually very young.

...

After waving goodbye to Eunice who was in front of the French windows, Karen, who got into the car, immediately became solemn as the door closed.

Murray, who was driving the car, noticed the change in the minister's expression through the rearview mirror. He was surprised that this change could be made so bluntly and so naturally.

This is probably a switch from a living state to a working state.

"Is everything arranged?"

"Master, everything has been arranged."

"Um."

The second-hand black Pens activated the acceleration formation, giving the car a speed that surpassed all social vehicles at the current stage, and drove into the Whip of Order headquarters building before dusk.

Karen, who was wearing the robe of order, got out of the car, Alfred followed Karen half a step behind, and Murray was a little further away.

At this time, the directors, deputy directors, and a group of middle-level leading priests in the various offices upstairs all left their jobs and gathered in a line in the lobby.

When Karen entered the hall, they collectively saluted Karen, and the rest of the grassroots priests followed suit.

Wherever Karen went, there were extremely respectful expressions on both sides.

During the days when he returned to Allen Manor for vacation, the news that District Chief Suss was about to be transferred to leave the region had already spread, which meant that the Whip of Order, which had just settled down for a short time, was about to enter a power vacuum again, and might welcome Come new power shuffle.

People's hearts are impetuous at this time.

However, when Karen came back, everyone seemed to have taken a bottle of tranquilizer in their hearts.

Except for a very small number of ambitious people or those who like to watch the excitement, most people still want to maintain a stable working and living environment, and Karen is the one who can bring them stability.

Those who were unstable were cleared out by this minister in two consecutive personnel changes.

Everyone knows that the future pattern of the Whip of Order in this region will be destined to be:

The district mayor who runs the water, and the law enforcement minister who is hard-working.

Among Karen's original subordinates, except for those who are really not suitable for leading people to work, such as Philomena, the rest have basically been promoted, and even Richard is now the office director;

In addition, there has been a major adjustment of middle-level personnel recently completed with the tacit consent and even support of Suss. Many people have been promoted, and most of them are people who are on Karen's side.

Karen didn't know many people, and at most he could only be called by one name, but these were not a problem. Alfred had already arranged everything in an orderly manner anyway.

The real extension of power often depends not on individuals, but on an organization with a core.

"Meet the Minister!"

"Meet the Minister!"

Of course, today's scene was intentional.

Because tonight, District Mayor Seuss will announce his resignation at the ministerial meeting, and the successor District Chief has not yet taken office, so at this time, it is necessary to use this "formalism" to tell everyone:

Here, there will always be a shadow district chief.

What Karen has always disliked is useless formalism, so some forms, even he, must cooperate to complete them.

He really has no intention of going to war with the incoming Judge Gaspol from the very beginning, and the way to avoid the war is not just to give in blindly. When you become stronger, the probability of starting a war will decrease instead.

When he reached the door of the meeting room, Karen stopped, looked at the priests standing on both sides of the corridor in front of him, and Karen said:

"Let's do things."

"Yes, Minister!"

"Yes, Minister!"

Everyone immediately returned to their respective jobs, like a military parade that has just ended.

This is a "military parade", and they themselves are actors and audiences.

Vic and Leon opened the office door, inside, Seuss' speech was coming to an end:

"...In short, thank you for your support for my work in the past. I will go to a new job and continue to fight for order, but I will always remember the wonderful experience of working with you."

Karen didn't come late, but the meeting was brought forward by Seuss.

When Karen came in, Seuss took the initiative to leave his seat, stretched out his hand to pull Karen over, and asked Karen to sit in his previous seat.

Karen didn't refuse and sat down.

Seuss stood next to Karen and said with a smile, "I hope that the Whip of Order in our York City region will get better and better and become a powerful defender of order!"

The ministers here look at me and I look at you, everyone fell into a brief silence.

Karen took the initiative to stand up, and then the Minister of Investigation Neo stood up, and then the other ministers stood up one after another.

Karen clenched his fist against his chest: "Whip, for the sake of order!"

All the ministers said in unison: "Whip, for the sake of order!"

Karen sat down, and everyone took their seats too.

At this time, Seuss' secretary-general sent in a document, and she delivered it to Seuss first, but Seuss didn't even read it, and pointed to Karen, and the secretary-general sent the document to Karen.

Karen was not polite. After opening the file and taking a look, he glanced at the audience and said:

"My religion will send an investigation team for the civil war of the Desert God Cult, and the Whip of Order in this region will send a team to join. I decided to lead the team myself, and then choose suitable personnel to supplement. Everyone, what's your opinion?"

"No opinion!" Minister Neo expressed his attitude directly.

"no comment."

"no comment."

Karen nodded: "Then this matter is settled, and the specific selection list will be announced later."

At this time, Alfred put a document in front of Karen, and then distributed copies to the ministers present.

Karen said: "This is the upcoming reform of the welfare system of the headquarters. There have been new changes in the attendance tasks of the Whip of Order team at the grassroots level and the allowances of various departments. You can read it and see if you have any confusion or doubts. , you can bring it up now."

In fact, there will be no opinions, not because Karen sits in the position of district chief and pressures, but because there is really no way to raise it, because this is a reform to improve welfare benefits collectively.

In this system, who would object to this? Even if it is not in your own interest, it is in the interest of everyone below.

And this is a gift from Bourne to Karen. The chief bishop handed over the Whip of Order task release and reward system controlled by the Regional Management Office to the Whip of Order headquarters.

It turns out that when the Whip of Order was in decline, the Whip of Order team below all received tasks from the regional management office to get rewards. In name, everyone was on the same level and each formed a system, but in fact, the Whip of Order team was like the regional management office. long-term workers.

The Whip of Order has been fighting for the return of this right, and it took back part of it before, but the Regional Management Office still holds half of it. Now, Bourne has given it over completely as a favor.

From the perspective of the region, the inventory has not actually increased, but the allocation has changed. From then on, the Whip of Order team can receive missions and rewards at the headquarters, and the financial situation of the headquarters will be greatly improved.

Working for others and being your own boss are different in nature. At least, there is no middleman to make the difference.

Moreover, in terms of the pension system, Karen has broadened the channels, and the changes in this area are so large that they even exceed the increase in allowances.

The ministers present were surprised when they saw the back.

A minister hesitated and said, "Minister Karen, this last item..."

"Due to the special nature of our work, grassroots personnel are often faced with extremely high risks, including their families. I think it is appropriate to improve the pension protection for them and their families, which can stimulate the work enthusiasm of the people below." , At the same time, keep them from bleeding and crying.

Of course, this expenditure will inevitably lead to an increased financial burden on our headquarters.

But this is not their problem, but the problem of all of you here, and it is our duty to solve this problem. "

Everyone nodded. Everyone understood the implication of the Minister of Law Enforcement. The financial burden is an objective issue, so it is up to everyone present to find a way to be responsible for the coupons.

Everyone present here also knows that the Minister of Law Enforcement has been very successful in this area. Every time he goes out to perform missions, he can get a lot of profits back, and he will distribute the profits.

Karen silently looked at the reform plan in his hands, and what emerged in his mind was the image of Judge Pavaro standing at the door of his daughter's bedroom.

Between personal interests and belief in order, Judge Pavaro chose the latter, but if conditions allowed, he could have avoided making this painful choice.

The religious subsidy system at the grassroots level has seriously lagged behind the times. When Karen tasted those dishes at the banquet, he would use "Pavaro" as a reference. This dish is worth a few Pavaro or a dozen Pa Varo, this is actually a kind of sadness.

At present, I don't have the ability to change the situation of the entire God religion, but at least, I can change this department in my hands now.

Karen did not choose to give a speech before the end of the meeting, but simply announced the end of the meeting instead of Seuss. Afterwards, Seuss and Karen got into a car, driven by Alfred, and came to the funeral home.

The original funeral club has now become a bit of a "special hospitality club", so only people from the Order of God will not feel unlucky.

In the car, Suss said with a smile: "These things can only be done before Gaspol takes office. This will limit her room for maneuver and force her to not want to fight you for power."

"Only by means of struggle can real peace be promoted."

"Yes, that's right." Seuss nodded, "You work hard, I think we will have a chance to work together in the future."

"I really hope to work under your command again."

"Let's change next time. You can be my boss. As your boss, I want to go to the divine religion of divination to calculate my fortune, hahaha."

Get out of the car and enter the funeral club, where the Chief Bishop of Bourne is already waiting, Heely has prepared the meals, and Karen went straight into the kitchen and cooked two more dishes herself.

Three people, one table, start to have dinner.

Seuss joked, "Maybe after a while, the one sitting here eating will be that woman."

The Chief Bishop of Burne took a sip of his wine, looked at Karen, and said, "That depends on whether she obeys the rules."

Karen raised his glass and said to Bourne, "My lord, I respect you."

Bourne responded and said with a smile: "This is what should be handed over, so you don't need to thank me."

"But you could have put off a little longer."

"Don't procrastinate, it's you that I've taken a liking to, and it's you that Vaughan has taken a liking to, and I also prefer to work with you. You all know that I like to do things by hook or by crook, you boy..."

Bourne pointed to Karen: "We don't stick to formality when doing things, but in the final bottom line, we will always stand on the side of order."

Sus poured the wine himself, and said while pouring: "I am different from you two, I am timid, it is not easy to climb to this position, I am a little scared, so I slipped first, hahaha.

However, it is precisely because of believers in order like you that a bureaucrat like me can be born. I have always been very clear about one thing, if the entire religion is filled with people like me, then the big ship of order will not be able to sail at all .

Anyway, thank you both. "

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

...

A farewell dinner lasted for four hours. Karen sat there, listening to Seuss chatting and Bourne chatting. He didn't talk about himself, but was only responsible for answering and delivering calls.

After the end, Seuss and Bourne each left in their own vehicles. Karen took a shower at the Funeral Society, changed into an ordinary robe, and then got into the car parked outside. The driver was Richard, sitting in the passenger seat, is Richard's deputy director of the office, Memphis.

"Karen, go to sleep, I've made arrangements."

"Um."

Karen closed her eyes and began to rest.

Memphis took out a blanket and gently covered Karen.

Richard laughed and said, "You actually learned how to flatter."

Memphis didn't say a word. He knew that the busy period of this period was coming to an end, and he could take off his belt by then.

The car drove to the hall of the teleportation circle. After getting off the car, accompanied by Richard and Memphis, Karen came to the Dingle area through the teleportation circle. Due to the time difference, it was daytime in the Dinge area.

Richard didn't call for a carriage. Richard had reserved a car in advance, and he was still driving, while Karen sat in the back and slept.

The car drove into the missionary university to which the Cult of Kosmos belonged, and after finding a suitable place to park, Richard and Memphis each took Karen's information to go through the admission procedures.

About two hours later, Karen was called up to show her face, took a photo, did some identity verification, and got the admission certificate.

After that, Karen went back to the car to sleep, and Richard drove back.

It was the first time he came to the Christian University, Karen didn't even take a look at the school environment, he just came to report, and he would come to class later when he found time.

However, the school clerks in charge of handling the formalities accidentally discovered a problem when sorting out today's documents:

"Is this newcomer's position wrongly filled in, Minister of the Whip of Order in the Region?"

"Who went through the formalities, let's see if I made a mistake. The age column is still so young?"

"What happened?" A half-bald middle-aged man walked in with a thermos in his hand.

"Director, please take a look, is this admission form filled incorrectly?"

"Bah." The director spat out the tea foam in his mouth, leaned over to take a look, and said with a smile, "Oh, that's right, look at his name, Karen Silva."

...

Whether it is calling Luo Ya twice or consecutive meetings and receptions, it actually consumes a lot of energy. However, after going to the Dingle area to go through the admission procedures, Karen's spirit was refreshed when he returned to York City. basically recovered.

He was not in a hurry to go home, but came to the residence of God Son Marvalho with a bag of things and knocked on the door.

It was Marvalho who opened the door. After seeing Karen, his face was filled with a smile. These days, he was in the same room with his fiancée, and he was really depressed. Now finally a "reinforcement" arrived .

And this reinforcement is not only his only friend, but also his fiancée's competitor.

As Gaspol's fiancé, Marvalho doesn't have the concept of a conjugal community. It is difficult for him to find a sense of substitution for the "family atmosphere".

Marvalho led Kalun to the living room.

Gaspole stood up and said to Karen, "Minister Karen, hello."

"Hello, Lord Judge."

Marvalho deliberately loudly said:

"Hahaha, Karen, come as soon as you come, and bring any gifts, there is no need to be so polite between us."

Marvalo reached for Karen's gift bag, but Karen didn't hand it to him. Instead, he put the bag on the coffee table used by Gaspol, took out the internal documents from it, and set it up.

Karen smiled and said:

"These are the latest working documents from the headquarters recently. You need to review them. There are still a few issues that need your opinions."

Gaspor responded: "Minister Karen, I haven't officially assumed office yet. It seems inappropriate to show me these documents and let me make a decision."

Karen responded:

"I think it is in the best interest of our Whip of Order to let you take over the work earlier, so as to better ensure the smooth and continuous development of the work, everything is for order.

Do you think I'm right, senpai? "
