Chapter 1413 - 633: Weakness

"Where is the Vice Commander?"

Fang Yu’s heart immediately filled with vigilance, and he asked.

However, Chi Gaohan simply strode to the table in the middle of the room and slapped a letter on it.

"Today at noon, Zhang Mansion, bringing the Vice Commander’s personal letter, you will meet the person you want to see."

Fang Yu was taken aback and quickly understood.

"Hui Yao? He’s at Zhang Mansion? You’ve contacted him?"

"Yes."

Fang Yu immediately became excited.

He had wandered Thunder City for so long, moved through various places, all to find news of his brother.

Now, he finally had the opportunity to see Hui Yao, getting closer to the result he wanted.

Fang Yu moved forward quickly, but saw Chi Gaohan suddenly press heavily on the note with his big hand.

Fang Yu dared not snatch it forcefully; if the note was damaged and became invalid, he wouldn’t be able to meet anyone.

Immediately, Fang Yu stopped in his tracks.

"What do you mean?"

He frowned at Chi Gaohan.

"I haven’t conveyed the Vice Commander’s words yet."

What? Ding Hui has been working for your Rebel Army, and you still need us to do something?

Fang Yu felt agitated, but quickly suppressed it.

At this moment, Chi Gaohan had cleared his throat and said in an odd and deep voice: "Diao Deyi, you first violated the agreement by wantonly killing the demons hiding in the city, and then slaying the Foolish Underworld’s Hall Master Xing Xueman. This series of actions completely disrupted the plans we laid out. You were supposed to be a hidden card, but now you’ve appeared prematurely... Honestly, both I and the President are disappointed in you this time."

"But we believe your intentions are good, that you want to do more for the people of Thunder City, but you lack some discipline and guidance."

"The Foolish Underworld’s thunderous backlash this time caused our Rebel Army heavy losses. We hope you learn from this and act more cautiously in the future."

"The letter on the table is the token that can verify your identity with Hui Yao, and it’s the bridge of trust between us and Hui Yao. If you mess it up, our connection with Hui Yao will be completely severed. I hope you understand what this trust represents."

"Honestly, I’m personally against this. I think you’ll sever our connection with Hui Yao, cutting off an important source of intelligence about the Ten Major Families, but the President believes that rewards and penalties balance out, and you still deserve a reward, so... this is what you deserve. However, we must set three conditions."

"First, you can use the token, on behalf of the Rebel Army, to conduct transactions with Hui Yao. But you must ensure that, no matter what happens, the transaction proceeds smoothly, all accounts clear, and you return to the Rebel Army with the goods."

"Second, you are not allowed to harm Hui Yao in any way, whether he is the real Hui Yao or not!"

"Third, no matter what you see at Zhang Mansion... don’t take any extra actions."

"If you violate any of the above points, think carefully about one thing... Divine Doctor Ding is still in the Rebel Army’s stronghold. And you may face a double manhunt from the Foolish Underworld and the Rebel Army..."

Saying this, Chi Gaohan let out a heavy breath, relieved, as if he had completed something great and sacred.

Then, he heard...

"Are you imitating the Vice Commander’s voice?"

Swish—

Chi Gaohan glared at Fang Yu, as if saying he talks too much.

"These are the words the Vice Commander left, Minister Diao, in the future, you must consider carefully and mind your behavior and conduct."

Evidently, it was a case of wielding a feather as an arrow, exuding a sense of superiority.

Fang Yu turned to look at Qiu Xiaoping, who just shrugged helplessly and then said to Chi Gaohan.

"Captain Chi, thank you for your hard work. I’ll persuade Young Master Diao from here, you can go and rest for a bit."

Qiu Xiaoping’s words had some power, at least making people feel comfortable.

Chi Gaohan nodded slightly, glanced at Fang Yu, and then strode out of the room.

That demeanor was somewhat arrogant...

Did he think that after the Vice Commander criticized him, his status within the Rebel Army was higher than mine as a Minister?

Fang Yu scratched his head, finding it hard to understand where this guy’s arrogant attitude came from.

With the door closed, only Fang Yu and Qiu Xiaoping were left in the room.

Fang Yu looked at the letter on the table and found it was simply a list of goods, with a special stamp mark in the lower right corner, which should be the key detail making it a token.

Carefully putting it away, Fang Yu looked at Qiu Xiaoping.

"Lord Qiu, when do we set off?"

"No rush."

Qiu Xiaoping found a place to sit in the room, continuing, "Did you understand the Vice Commander’s intention? The Vice Commander’s conditions are not just words."

She seemed a bit afraid that Fang Yu might be too impulsive, too reckless, and cause trouble again. If that... really happened as the Vice Commander left word, their Rebel Army would have to hunt down Fang Yu.

Qiu Xiaoping didn’t want the expert she had painstakingly recruited to end up as an antagonist.

"Don’t worry, I understand the Vice Commander’s intentions, I know my boundaries."

Basically, it’s about running through the process, acting as a tool for the Rebel Army, with no extra actions. Can’t harm a hair on Hui Yao’s head, walking through it like a puppet, taking the slaves the Rebel Army wants to purchase back to the Rebel Army’s stronghold, and that will be mission accomplished.

This thing, to put it badly, is like going through a gameplay cutscene, even if I can do something, I can’t act, can only look on helplessly. The Rebel Army only provided one person, replacing the person originally responsible for interfacing with Hui Yao with me, but the Rebel Army’s desired result must not have any deviation.
