In the name of supernatural powers

Chapter 74 Miss Lin's Romantic History

On the morning of June 28th,

Cangwu City, East of the South China Sea.

In the heart of the Hua District, a quiet garden with retro-styled rooms is filled with calligraphy, paintings, and antiques.

Most of the residences of federal military commanders are ancient houses and gardens, which are state assets and cannot be sold or renovated.

He has lived here for fifteen years, ever since he became the chief of the Nankaido region.

There is no such thing as retirement for federal marshals. As long as there are no major problems, they can basically work until they die.

Even if someone is too old to move, they will still be given a nominal position.

Liu Hanwen woke up in bed and reached for his reading glasses.

He is seventy-eight years old this year, with graying temples. Even a fifth-order superhuman cannot avoid aging.

Birth, aging, sickness, and death are natural occurrences, even for someone as powerful as Zhuge Liang who could move mountains and fill seas.

On average, it takes thirty years for a martial arts master to go from breakthrough to decline, with a peak period of only fifteen years. Generally, around the age of seventy, some people choose to suppress their life force, and their daily life becomes no different from that of an ordinary person.

By extending their peak period in this way, some Taoist masters remained vigorous even at the age of one hundred.

Therefore, the federation needs order, which is based on the consensus of all the powerful.

Extraordinary power cannot be passed down 100%. Most descendants will become ordinary people or low-level extraordinary beings. No one can guarantee that their family will prosper forever.

It's normal to experience ups and downs and eventually fade into obscurity.

Liu Hanwen had no descendants. He spent the first half of his life expanding the territory of the Federation and the second half defending the country, serving four generations of the Martial Virtue Hall.

He spent his entire life in the military, never settling down or starting a family.

His only remaining thought was the granddaughter left behind by his old comrade-in-arms.

dong dong dong.

The secretary knocked on the door at just the right moment, and after receiving a reply from Liu Hanwen, she pushed open the door and came in carrying a basin of water and a towel.
"Mr. Liu, did you sleep well last night?"

Secretary Liu is a middle-aged man in his forties, a fourth-order extraordinary being, and one of the most promising people to be promoted to Martial Marquis.

According to custom, he would be assigned to be a secretary to a certain military commander, and after he was promoted, he would inherit the old military commander's political assets and bring blessings to his family after the old military commander's death.

The Federation's Martial Marquis group is the most mobile, with only a very few top-tier families able to guarantee that Martial Marquises will be produced generation after generation.

"I have a terrible headache."

Liu Hanwen rubbed his temples and said, "The demon corpse has disappeared without a trace. It is suspected that a fourth-level being has infiltrated the South China Sea West Road from abroad. Also, the Chen family has been causing trouble lately."

"Finally, there's a whole host of bad things going on at the Martial Virtue Hall. If you ask me, we should just have a fight, and whoever wins will have the final say."

Secretary Liu maintained a smile and did not interrupt, especially regarding matters concerning the Wude Hall.

As the pressure to survive intensified year by year, the warriors were all looking for a way out, which led to a clash of ideologies.

There were seventy factions among the seventy military commanders, and even among the conservative faction, there were three or four different ideologies. For example, Liu Hanwen was a pure conservative who only wanted to maintain the existing situation.

Liu Hanwen sat up, wiping his face with a towel as he complained incessantly, "These are all secondary issues. Xiao Yan's marriage is still undecided. We've introduced so many promising young men, but not a single one is satisfactory."

Secretary Liu dared to speak up on this matter, saying, "Young people nowadays all pursue free love."

Liu Hanwen said with dissatisfaction, "I didn't force her to choose any particular one."

Secretary Liu suggested, "Why don't you not push so hard? It might provoke Miss Lin's rebellious side."

Over the years, Chief Liu has introduced a hundred young men to Miss Lin every year, which, to be honest, Secretary Liu thinks is excessive.

"Sigh, if I were ten years younger, I might not be rushing you, but I'm already in my seventies, and in two more years I'll be an old man in my eighties."

Liu Hanwen sighed and stopped talking about it.

After Liu Hanwen finished washing up, before breakfast was served, Secretary Liu handed him a document.

"Boss, there's a problem in Fangshi. The special investigation team is suing the Fangshi Municipal Enforcement Bureau." "Who did this?"

"According to a member of the task force I contacted, it was Lu Zhao, whom Ms. Lin had previously promoted, who orchestrated this."

"Lu Zhao?"

Liu Hanwen kept repeating this name; he had heard Lin Zhiyan mention it twice.

Secretary Liu then took Lu Zhao's personal information out of her briefcase.

"Lu Zhao, born in 3216, registered residence in Chuyun District, Cangwu, from a martyr's family..."

He had already completed his work and conducted a detailed investigation before coming to report, which is a basic quality of Wuhou's secretary.

They are responsible for the specific tasks, while the final decisions are left to the leadership.

Upon hearing that Lu Zhao graduated from the capital city, Liu Hanwen asked, "Did he meet Xiao Yan while he was in school?"

Secretary Liu replied, "The two should not know each other. Lu Zhao was aloof and had no friends during his time at school, while Miss Lin was quite introverted when she first enrolled."

"If we're really talking about connections, this young man is that person."

Because of the deaths of his father and grandfather, Lin Zhiyan was quite withdrawn for a long time.

Then, in my second year of university, I suddenly had a breakthrough and gradually returned to normal.

It might be due to a breakup or a rebellious mentality.

Secretary Liu investigated this matter in detail; it can only be said that it was a very coincidental coincidence.

Liu Hanwen raised an eyebrow and sneered, "Is this the brat? He dumped Xiao Yan and now he's using him."

"Actually, it can't be called dumping. According to my inquiry with Xu Fang, he probably doesn't even remember Miss Lin."

Secretary Liu took out a photo; it was Lu Zhao's graduation certificate.

He was tall and handsome, with almond-shaped eyes.

Good-looking men are rarer and more eye-catching than women.

“Someone like him probably sends dozens of love letters a year. These days, students might not even know each other before they exchange love letters; they just write them on a whim.”

"That's because they didn't recognize Mount Tai."

Liu Hanwen snorted coldly, and Secretary Liu was powerless to refute him.

In his memory, Miss Lin never dressed up, her bangs were long enough to cover her eyes, and she was very gloomy.

It would be a miracle if Lu Zhao remembered being rejected on the spot after handing someone a love letter.

Secretary Liu changed the subject, saying, "This matter may have been instigated by Miss Lin. Miss Lin has always been quite rebellious."
-
Fangshi, a state-run hotel.

Lin Zhiyan was lying on the large bed in the luxury suite, completely naked, her long legs twisting and writhing against the down comforter.

It is well known that spiritual beings with supernatural abilities have some quirks. Lin Zhiyan once deeply immersed herself in the spiritual world, and since then she has developed a very serious obsession with cleanliness.

Later, Master Liu used his connections to find a martial arts master with spiritual powers to help her build a spiritual palace, which finally brought her peace of mind.

The situation was very critical at that time. If she had experienced a few more mental upheavals, Lin Zhiyan would probably be mentally unstable by now.

Sleeping naked helps sweat evaporate during sleep, keeping the skin dry and preventing her from recalling the quagmire of being caught in a mental tsunami.

Ring ring ring!
The phone on the bedside table started ringing. Lin Zhiyan opened her blurry eyes, picked up the phone, and answered weakly, "Hello?"

"The sun's already high in the sky, why aren't you up yet? Did you interrogate me late last night?"

Liu Hanwen's voice came through, and Lin Zhiyan replied, "Master Liu, I would like to conduct the interrogation, but you won't let me be on the front lines."

"The little princess has grown up, and I'm starting to find my words unpleasant. I told you not to go, but you really didn't go?"
