Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

Chapter 426 There is no Old Carp at all, or rather, everyone is Old Carp.

Qi Yan sat almost in a reclining position on the leather office chair in the conference room, with his legs stretched out straight, one on top of the other on the table in front of him.

Bai Jin sat not far away, staring absently at the pattern on Qi Yan's shoes.

Monique exuded a low and oppressive aura, and anyone who approached her would feel a terrifying sense of suffocation.

There were only the three of them in the meeting room.

Qi Yan raised his empty wrist, making a gesture as if to check his watch, and complained:

"Roy and the others are so slow. I announced the meeting half a minute ago, and not a single one of them has shown up."

Platinum cupped her cheek with one hand, making her face look chubby and plump, so cute that you couldn't help but want to lean in and kiss it.

She said listlessly, "They're following your orders and patrolling the Federation building. They can't get that fast even by flying."

"Little Platinum, subordinates are not allowed to kiss their superiors on the lips!"

Qi Yan said in a serious tone.

Platinum: "...I don't kiss."

"I'm kissing you two!"

Bai Jin looked at Qi Yandang's smiling face, his expression gradually turning to one of utter despair.

Previously, it was just workplace oppression, with all the hard and tiring work left to her, while her two bosses flirted and joked in front of her.

Now, things have gotten even worse. With a new boss, the workplace harassment has started right away.

Platinum's resolve to run away with the bucket grew stronger.

Monique's face was ashen as she listened to the two of them chatting away in front of her, feeling her emotions were about to explode.

Just as she was about to lose control of her emotions, the conference room door was suddenly kicked open.

Roy was out of breath, his face flushed, but the first thing he did upon entering was to shout to Platinum:

"Little Platinum, I absolutely love you!"

Platinum: "...I don't love you."

"I love you both!"

Platinum's eyes roll upwards.

I can't stand it anymore, let's just destroy it already. When will Qi Yan get tired of playing with me? Let's give ourselves and this bastard Kuranta in front of us a punch!

Qi Yan retracted his arrogant legs, slammed his fist on the conference table, and said with dissatisfaction:

"Be serious, this is a conference room, not a place for you to confess your feelings."

Roy instantly changed his expression, bowing and scraping as he walked to his seat.

Qi Yan glanced at the empty office and was too lazy to wait any longer, lest that damned young Wu Zhou Alliance come and sabotage him again.

"I'll just have a quick meeting and say a few words," Qi Yan said with a light cough.

Upon hearing this, Platinum's eyelids began to droop as if by reflex.

But soon, she was jolted awake by Qi Yan's words.

"Now that my competition is over, I finally have time to get down to business."

Qi Yan rarely showed a serious expression, and said in a deep voice: "According to my intelligence, the Red Pine Knights will officially launch their operation in the next few days when the Radiant Knights and the Candle Knights are fighting."

The businessmen in the federation have already given you orders to begin cleaning out the infected on that day!

Roy's expression was somewhat unnatural.

He did receive the order, and deliberately kept it a secret, so that even Monique was unaware of it.

Qi Yan's gaze swept over him, instantly sending a cold sweat down Roy's back.

But Qi Yan didn't react; he simply continued speaking to himself:

"Roy agreed to this, so he'll be in charge. I'm too lazy to get involved, but I have to intervene in the match with the Radiant Knights."

Roy and Monique exchanged a glance, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.

"Are you serious?" Roy asked cautiously.

"Do I look like I'm joking with you?" Qi Yan retorted.

Roy sat up straight instantly and shook his head vigorously.

Qi Yan snorted coldly, a smirk playing on his lips, his smile radiating wickedness.

"The Radiant Knight's conviction is unwavering, and ordinary means cannot stop her. Even if we successfully defeat her in the arena through conspiracy, she will not be discouraged. She can always fight again in the next competition."

Her goal wasn't to win the championship, but to demonstrate to Casimir what true chivalry is through her actions.

"So what should we do?" Roy chimed in.

Qi Yan stretched out his hand and clenched it in front of him, as if he had grabbed something, and grinned mischievously:

"Of course, it's about striking at her mentality and completely destroying her dream of being a knight."

And what is most important to her?

Roy and Monique exchanged a glance, both looking on with surprise and uncertainty.

Platinum tilted her head and thought for a moment before giving her answer:

"Her relatives?"

Qi Yan slammed his hand on the table, stood up abruptly, and exclaimed excitedly, "Little Platinum is really smart, so I've decided on you! Go kidnap the Radiant Knight's sister!"

Platinum was stunned.

She wished she could travel back in time and slap herself hard a few seconds earlier.

But Qi Yan wasn't finished speaking.

Under Bai Jin's despairing gaze, Qi Yan rushed to her in three strides, grabbed her shoulders, and passionately declared:

"Not just Maria, it would be best to bring Zofia and the three musketeers from Martin's Tavern over here as well!"

Then you need to go through all that trouble, go to the Rhodes Island hotel, kidnap Rhodes Island's leader Amiya, and most importantly, strip the Rhodes Island Doctor naked and hang her on the hotel rooftop as a public spectacle, to show the Radiant Knight what will happen if she dares to continue!

Platinum almost burst into tears on the spot.

Roy's mouth twitched wildly as he stood to the side.

He never dreamed that Qi Yan would go so far as to betray even his own people when he went crazy.

Just then, the table was punched hard by someone.

The three of them turned to look at each other at the same time, only to see that Monique's pretty face was so dark it was almost dripping with water, and her voice seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth:

"You don't assign me any tasks!"

Qi Yan turned around and leaned back tactically, bringing her nose close to the platinum blonde hair and taking a deep breath of its fragrance.

After his evil scheme succeeded, he ignored Bai Jin's expression of 'he was tainted' and said with satisfaction:

"If that's how you put it, then I'll give you a task: go to Linguang's house and kidnap Marna for me."

Monique's anger suddenly subsided.

As the Azure Gold Leader of the Unarmored Alliance, how could she not know Marna's strength?

“Ahem, well…” Roy quickly interjected, “I think the Red Pine Knights have a lot of people, and I can’t handle it all by myself. Let Monique help me.”

"Then what about my uncle?" Qi Yan asked back.

Roy felt a chill run down his spine.

He chuckled twice and pointed to the conference room door:

"Perhaps he will come to us on his own."

As soon as Roy finished speaking, there was actually a knock on the door.

Qi Yan looked somewhat bewildered and gave Bai Jin a wink.

Platinum's hair stood on end.

If Roy wasn't talking nonsense, then barring any unforeseen circumstances, the person standing outside the door was none other than the legendary ranger, the Dark Knight Marna himself!

One moment they were discussing kidnapping someone's family, and the next they were being confronted. Bai Jin could guess with his toes that the other party was there to cause trouble.

If this door opens, you might be greeted by a knight's longsword slashing down on your head.

"Go quickly, Platinum."

Roy secretly plotted something, while his hand silently reached for his longbow.

Platinum looked around stiffly, and saw that all three of them were staring straight at her, clearly leaving her no room to refuse.

Seeing this, Bai Jin had no choice but to suppress his fear and move step by step to the door.

As the door opened, the figure of the golden Pegasus appeared in Platinum's sight, and her poor little heart stopped on the spot.

Chapter 427: A higher-ranking official can crush someone to death

Marna stood silently at the door of the room, her gaze sweeping across the room, taking in the different expressions of the four people inside.

Qi Yan was the first to react, and jumped off the chair and crawled under the table.

While drilling, he didn't forget to shout:

"Quick, Monique, your mission target has appeared!"

Monique felt a chill run down her spine and immediately sought help:

When Monique asked for help, Roy moved swiftly and cleanly, rolling over the table to Monique's side.

At the same time, he exerted force with his arm, and the bowstring of his longbow made a taut, creaking sound. An arrow, gleaming with a sharp, cold light, was already nocked on the bowstring, its target... the bewildered Bai Jin.

"Little Platinum, go stop Marna!" Roy shouted.

Marna looked over.

platinum:"……"

He faces the legendary Dark Knight Manna in front of him and the threat of arrows from his own leader behind him.

Platinum's eyes were lifeless; he almost numbly drew his bow and shot at Marna.

She moved quickly, shooting the arrow in an instant. Marna was only three steps away from her, and the arrow arrived in front of Marna almost as soon as it left her hand.

But it could only reach Marna's eyes.

"...You are very brave."

Marna gripped the arrow, and the pale gold arm armor made a crisp sound.

The arrow broke in two with a snap.

Platinum let out a pitiful sound.

The moment the arrow left his hand, Platinum realized that he was being locked onto by an aura.

She didn't think about running away. With the instinct of a pegasus, she knew that if she dared to move now, her poor neck would be the next target of that arrow.

At this moment, even Platinum was somewhat impressed by his own courage in actually taking action.

Fortunately, Marner didn't waste his energy on Platinum.

He didn't even look at the nervous Roy and the other man. Instead, he looked directly at Qi Yan, who was peeking out from behind the table. With a calm expression, he walked over and sat down opposite Qi Yan.

“You actually hang out with these people,” Marna exclaimed.

Qi Yan looked like an unlucky kid caught skipping class to go online, his face full of embarrassment and helplessness:

"Uncle, what brings you here? You didn't even let me know so I could have made arrangements to welcome you."

"With arrows and daggers?" Marna's eyes were somewhat strange.

Even now, he still finds it somewhat difficult to accept Qi Yan's natural act of recognizing his relatives.

Although by common sense, Qi Yan and Margaret are of the same generation, so it would be fine for Qi Yan to call him uncle, in Marna's mind, Qi Yan is not the kind of person who acts according to common sense.

Seeing that Marna hadn't made a move, Qi Yan's courage grew:
