Extraordinary pedigree

In the secret room of the cafe, the space is occupied by dense surveillance screens. These screens are like sleepless eyes, quietly watching every corner of Hell's Kitchen.

Bureau Director Xia Xiu was sitting on a soft leather swivel chair in front of the monitor. His posture was both relaxed and focused.

The silver cane was leaning quietly against the chair. Xia Xiu was flipping through the information in his hand. He was holding a pile of espionage content collected by the Moon Rabbit.

The Moon Rabbit standing aside, his posture upright, his expression showing seriousness and nervousness.

Her eyes fell on Xia Xiu's face from time to time, trying to find a hint of evaluation or instruction in his expression.

However, the other party's expression was very dull, letting Moon Rabbit know whether his espionage work during this period was qualified in the eyes of the director.

Xia Xiu could sense the tension of the Moon Rabbit, but he did not express too much. His eyes were already focused on the intelligence content collected by the Moon Rabbit.

To be honest, the Moon Rabbit's espionage mission was very good.

Based on the strategic purpose of the Bureau, the other party clarified the types of information that needed to be collected for the espionage mission, such as the defense capabilities of the Whispering Square, the identities of key figures, magic and technological resources, etc.

————————

"The alien race that can open a hub block in the new world seems to be relatively normal in terms of its attitude towards humans."

Xia Xiu's eyes fell on [Adam's] racial analysis table. All the aliens on this table were "good citizens" who openly abide by federal laws and New World regulations.

However, these "good people" seem to be full of opinions about the administration, which is also the three giants of the New Alliance, and their relationship with [The Emetic] can be said to be inextricably linked, twins in one body. According to the intelligence of the Moon Rabbit, many members of the chaebol They all hold important positions in the esoteric sect.

Now, among the eight major families, some members of the Everchanging Workshop family have shown their sincerity to the administration, while other families are either hostile, indifferent, or wary.

This really chilled the heart of him, the head of the government.

You know, even if the Everchanging Workshop family plans to surrender, they are still not of the same mind internally.

There are members within their family who believe that launching the management tower was a mistake. Significant conflicts and factions have arisen within the family due to different understandings of strategy and future direction.

Xia Xiu carefully placed the last piece of information on the high table beside him, and then turned his eyes again to the surveillance screens scattered on the wall. One of the scenes showed the person who seemed to be waiting anxiously. Shapeshifter.

He asked the Moon Rabbit beside him:

"Is Mira Wanxiang outside the workshop member who plans to establish a cooperative relationship with us?"

When the Moon Rabbit heard this, his body shook slightly, he immediately took a few steps forward, and reported with unusually clear logic:

"Yes, there are obvious contradictions in the attitude towards the Management Bureau within the current workshop family - some family members believe that establishing a cooperative relationship with the Management Bureau is the best choice for the development of the family; other family members are firmly opposed to any form of cooperation , believing that this is tantamount to giving up the independence of the family and surrendering to the aggressive behavior of the Administration; some family members are neutral. They have an open attitude towards the future and believe that more information should be collected and the development of the situation should be observed. , then make a decision.”

"Smart people, fools, speculators."

Xia Xiu briefly summarized the Moon Rabbit's report, and then he ordered the Moon Rabbit:

"Let the wise men out there come in and see me."

"Yes, I will take him to the meeting room in the secret room to meet you."

The Moon Rabbit nodded respectfully and replied, and then she began to act according to the director's instructions.

Mira Wanxiang was walking in the cafe on the secret passage leading to the meeting with the Director of the Bureau. She was slightly uneasy as she twisted her body into a human form. The appearance of this body was 'original', and it was also It has not been excessively adjusted to charm humans, so it is considered a 'legal skin'.

His figure is intertwined between lights and shadows, reflecting the chaos and uneasiness in his heart at this moment.

As a member of the Everchanging Workshop family, he knows the importance of his trip, which is not only related to his personal destiny, but also to the future of the entire family. But every minute and every second of waiting was like a huge stone weighing heavily on his heart, filling his heart with anxiety.

Conflicts and disputes between factions within the family are no longer a matter of one or two days.

These internal conflicts not only consume the family's internal resources, but also unknowingly weaken its unified stance externally.

Family leaders face difficult choices at this critical moment. They must find a delicate balance between maintaining the family's core values ​​and independence and seeking external cooperation; cooperation may bring unprecedented opportunities, but excessive compromise may also mean giving up. Principles that the family has long adhered to.

Mira Wanxiang knows one thing deeply: cooperation and giving up principles are all just wishful thinking of family members.

For the Authority, compliance has always been the only option.

Whether it is members clamoring for resistance or hoping for neutrality - as long as they have these thoughts, they are wrong.

Because, as far as the man from the Management Bureau is concerned: destroying you has nothing to do with you.

He must use the most pious attitude in exchange for that adult's "friendship."

"Ahead is the living room where you will meet with the director."

The Moon Rabbit, who was responsible for guiding the shapeshifters, stopped.

Mira also stopped and looked at the administration operator with bunny ears on his head and a solemn expression.

"Watch your attitude."

Listening to the other party's cold words, Mira did not feel angry at all. Instead, she replied with sincerity and fear:

"I will talk to that gentleman in the most pious prostrate posture."

"Go ahead."

Standing on the threshold of the upcoming interview with the management authority, Mira Wanxiang felt that everything was unresolved.

Mira Wanxiang followed the steps of Moon Rabbit and entered a room hidden in the corner.

Although the space here is not large, it is extremely exquisitely decorated, and every item reflects the owner's taste and status.

His heartbeat accelerated at this moment, knowing that he was about to face an important figure in the Authority - the Director of the Authority - Hugh Abraham.

Entering the room, Mira Wanxiang's eyes involuntarily fell on the blond young man sitting behind the wide desk.

There is a slight difference between Xia Xiu's appearance and the image Mira constructed in her mind.

The golden hair exudes a soft luster under the light, and the handsome face easily attracts the attention of all the opposite sex.

Although her heart was full of curiosity and admiration, Mira did not dare to look at Xia Xiu too much, fearing that her direct gaze would be regarded as disrespectful.

Under the leadership of the Moon Rabbit, he slowly approached, the tension and awe in his heart surged like a tide.

"Very good transfiguration."

Xia Xiu's voice broke the silence of the room. He stood up from behind the desk and walked towards Mira, with appreciation in his tone.

That calm and warm tone caused Mira to fall into a brief trance unconsciously.

The main reason was that the contrast between the adult in front of him and the rumored image of an angel was so great that his mind was shut down for a while.

Mira quickly came to her senses, feeling a bit flattered in her heart, and quickly replied:

"There are more outstanding members than me in the Everchanging Family..."

There was nervousness and humility in his words, but when he wanted to continue to express himself, Xia Xiu gently interrupted him.

"No, from today on, you are the best shapeshifter in the Everchanging Workshop."

Hearing such comments, Mira couldn't help but raise her head and look at the blond young man's face full of warm smile.

However, the face and voice of the director of the administration were full of gentleness and encouragement, but for some reason, Mira felt an indescribable coldness in her heart.

He seemed to understand what the other party wanted to express...

A flash of realization flashed through his mind, but was immediately replaced by a strong sense of uneasiness.

His body began to tremble involuntarily, which was a reaction of nervousness and fear, but he knew that showing weakness at such a critical moment was absolutely not allowed.

So, he tried his best to restrain his trembling and tried to respond to Xia Xiu with a firm voice: "I can understand what you mean... However, some members of the family are indeed radical after all, and they have no regard for the family's tradition and culture. With deep emotions, the elders in the family all..."

His words revealed a deep understanding of family members and worries about the future. He wanted to plead with the adult in front of him for the idiots in his family.

Xia Xiu seemed to have expected Mira's worries. He smiled and shook his head gently.

"Actually, everyone is a businessman."

Xia Xiu interrupted Mira's trembling words, while Mira looked at the director of the administration in fear.

"As a businessman, I would make them an offer they couldn't refuse."

There is no threat in this sentence.

But Mira Wanxiang's heart seemed to be covered with ice at this moment, and the coldness spread from the bone marrow to the whole body.

Xia Xiu's next words were like a sharp knife, cutting through all his defenses.

"Mira Wanxiang, think of it as a gift, a gift of your surrender to the Administration, a gift from me, the Director of the Administration - this is the etiquette between friends."

Just as Xia Xiu finished speaking, the Moon Rabbit walked up to Mira with light steps. Her movements were elegant and decisive, and the paper and pen handed to her seemed to be the witness of the silent contract between them.

Mira's eyes finally couldn't help showing fear, and he saw the blond young man's golden eyes full of magic.

The corners of her eyes were clearly looking at him with a smile, but they gave him an abyss-like coldness.

Mira's trembling hands took over the pen and paper, and he felt that every move he made was as difficult as walking a tightrope.

Soon, his hand left the name "gift" on the paper.

To gain the "friendship" of the Director of the Authority, he must offer his loyalty.

As long as they offer their number one loyalty, the Administration will give them more 'gifts' and 'rewards' than any previous friends combined.

"very good."

Xia Xiu nodded with satisfaction. He reached out and pressed Mira Wanxiang's shoulder, and said as if talking to a friend:

"You will receive a gift from the Authority to a friend - and one day, of course, it may never come - the Authority will ask you to return this gift. Now, go home, there is nothing to do, like As usual, drink coffee and do your own little business. On the day when the gift arrives, you may sleep more comfortably than ever before, because you don’t need to do anything or think about anything.”

The conversation between the two ended after that, and the door was closed behind the grateful shapeshifter.

The Moon Rabbit turned around and handed the "gift list" to Xia Xiu's hand.

"You need me to send someone here..." The Moon Rabbit made a gesture of slitting the director's throat.

"Now is not the time to let our friends smell blood - it will scare them."

Xia Xiu shook his head. He took the list and looked at the names on it.

"I'll let the Mole and the Green Ox handle it."

Then, with a serious look on his face, he said seriously to the Moon Rabbit like a teacher correcting a problem:

"Also, we are not forgetful murderers. The Kingdom of Heaven and the Administration have always convinced people with reason."
