After Jiang Shu left, Director Xia dialed the internal phone line, and soon after, there was another knock on the door.

The minister walked in cautiously and sat down in the seat that Jiang Shu had just been sitting in.

"Chief, how is it?"

"This young man is quite good. Not only is he not the Courage Spiritual Root that Shen Mo had preconceived notions about, but he is also not the ordinary Love and Desire Spiritual Root. His basic intelligence value is also quite high. I find it very easy to communicate with him," Director Xia said.

"Hiss." The minister clicked his tongue. "That's quite a high compliment."

"Is it high?" Director Xia smiled. "It's just slightly higher than I expected."

"Your expectations..." The minister shook his head with a wry smile: "Are your expectations something that ordinary people can achieve, let alone exceed?"

"That seems quite excellent." Director Xia nodded thoughtfully.

"And what is his stance? Is it firm?" the minister asked again.

Recalling the details Jiang Shu described about her time with the strawberry milkshake, the director commented, "Unbelievably steadfast."

"There's an even higher evaluation?!" the minister exclaimed in surprise.

"In short," the director said with certainty, "they are trustworthy."

"Then there's no problem." The minister finally felt relieved: "Shen Mo, aside from anything else, does have a good eye for talent."

"Hmm..." Director Xia pondered.

“No…isn’t that right?” The minister thought he had said something wrong.

"I just think," Director Xia said after a moment's thought, "it's more like luck."

"Uh...why do you say that?"

"I think Shen Mo doesn't understand him at all."

Director Xia said:

“He told me that this young man was a troublemaker and sometimes a bit dull. I thought it would be difficult to communicate with him, but it went surprisingly smoothly. So I don’t agree with your high opinion of Shen Mo.”

"no way."

The minister sighed regretfully:

"After all, Shen Mo possesses the spiritual root of courage."

"That's not quite right," Director Xia shook his head. "At least those who share the same ideals as the Courage Spirit Root always have some qualities that the Courage Spirit Root can trust. You could call it intuition, but it's quite accurate in that respect."

"That's true."

The minister nodded and asked:

"So, should we continue protecting him secretly as planned?"

Director Xia hummed in agreement, then continued:

"There's another reason I called you here."

"what?"

"Try to find out if there have been any Love and Desire Spirit Root Evolvers who have suddenly become famous and are above level twelve recently."

"clear."

The minister did not ask why.

The bureau chief has his reasons for doing this.

As for the reasons, I will tell you if needed.

If they didn't say, then don't ask.

Suddenly remembering something, the minister said, "By the way, Director, we've found the person who leaked the information. It wasn't a rebel, but they had something on him that he provided to them."

"Only one?"

"Only one has been found so far."

Director Xia thought for a moment: "Does he realize he's been exposed?"

"No, I don't know if he has any other accomplices, so I didn't want to alert him. I was worried that if I touched him, it would alert the other moles."

"Yes, finding one is enough."

Director Xia nodded:

“Pick some trivial but true information and let him come into contact with it by chance. Just leave it there for now, it might come in handy when it’s crucial.”

The minister understood his idea.

"Simultaneously besiege the enemy's stronghold and strike at their reinforcements?"

"It's up to you."

"Understood." The minister replied knowingly. "Is there anything else you require?"

"There's one more thing." The director pointed to the nameplate on his desk: "A colleague reported that some cadres are not displaying their nameplates on their desks according to the rules. If you have time, you should rectify this situation."

"Uh..."

The minister's expression was strange:

"Silence?"

Director Xia remained silent.

......

"How about it?"

Inside the sixth group's office, Shen Mo asked Jiang Shu.

Jiang Shu was currently reviewing the situation.

He brought the "Absolute Truth Scales" with him when he went in, originally to prevent being deceived.

But to my surprise, Director Xia didn't tell a single lie.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shu casually replied, "He's alright, he's a nice person."

"What do you mean by 'the person is nice'?" Shen Mo asked, puzzled. "Weren't you talking about business? It wasn't a blind date."

Just then, a stern voice came from outside the door.

"Shen Mo, come here for a moment."

After saying that, the minister, with a gloomy expression, left.

"What's going on?" Shen Mo scratched his head, puzzled, and said to Jiang Shu, "I'll tell you when I get back."

Then I jogged after him.

Jiang Shu looked at his retreating figure, somewhat surprised.

Is the process of petitioning so efficient?

It seems I need to change my evaluation.

Director Xia is an excellent person.

Chapter 131 The Demon Orb and Spirit Pearl of Group Six

Director Xia made a very good first impression on Jiang Shu.

Generally speaking, Jiang Shu would not easily judge the background of someone she had just met.

He will only decide how to treat someone after spending some time with them and thoroughly understanding all aspects of them.

Therefore, Jiang Shu can get along with everyone, but rarely makes friends.

However, this situation improved considerably after the introduction of "dedication".

No matter who the other person is, as long as they have a good impression of you, you can skip the process of getting to know them and fast forward to "we're buddies," and "what else is there to say?"

But this only ensures that the other party won't harm him. It means that Jiang Shu no longer cares what the other party thinks of him. This is actually more like a one-sided idol worship.

As a celebrity, Jiang Shu only needs to passively accept the situation. Others affected by the "sacrifice" will take care of it themselves. There is no need to care about the fans' background, so there is no need to judge.

Strictly speaking, there are very few people who he feels are reliable after only meeting them once.

It's not just about the person's demeanor, but also about how they, despite being in a position of authority, are understanding and considerate towards their subordinates, and how they take even the smallest details that come up from below very seriously. Most importantly, they are very sincere.

Jiang Shu originally thought that, given Director Xia's high position, even if he wouldn't deliberately deceive someone like him, a nobody, there would be many high-level things he wouldn't want him to know and would try to hide from him.

So he brought along the "Absolute Truth Scales".

But to everyone's surprise, Director Xia didn't utter a single lie, not even a pie in the sky.

Although he did have some things, such as his views on the Old Man of No Contention and his speculations about the connection between the Town of Lies and the Old Man of No Contention, he did not reveal them at the first opportunity.

However, after Jiang Shu probed him and he discovered that Jiang Shu had already realized the suspicious points, he naturally offered an explanation.

For someone of his status, such performance was extremely rare in Jiang Shu's eyes.

Since that's the case, we really can't let what the other person says go in one ear and out the other. We need to not only consider things from a higher perspective, but also keep what the other person says in mind, aiming for the level eight to ten range.

"Sublimation...it's actually very close." Jiang Shu muttered to himself with some anticipation.

He currently appears to be only at level four.

But actually, the experience points are overflowing, already reaching level five, and the only thing missing to reach level five is the stat point allocation.

Moreover, you don't even need to add too much. With your own amplification rate, you can easily reach the threshold of 100 points by using just three evolution points, thus becoming one of the weakest level 5 evolvers.

If you max out all the points, you can even reach the threshold of 150 points for level 6.

So what we're lacking now is just experience points.

This part can actually be completed together with collecting the items needed for ascension.

The items needed for ascension are all produced in the incubator. You just need to figure out which items you need, which items have different qualities, and how to obtain the best ones.

Next, you can enter the corresponding incubator to try your luck at getting drops.

The best person to ask about this issue is naturally Shenmo.

Just as Jiang Shu was thinking about this.

Shen Mo walked back from outside, cursing.

"Which son of a bitch snitched on me?!"

Jiang Shu looked at Shen Mo.

I'm going to see Li Yunlong.

"Is it you?" Noticing Jiang Shu's gaze, Shen Mo walked straight towards him.

Jiang Shu remained calm: "What happened?"

"The minister said that someone reported to him that I didn't have a nameplate on my desk, and blamed me for not setting a good example as the team leader, and even reported the matter to him."

Shen Mo sneered: "There are bad guys among the crowd, and you're the bad guy, aren't you?"

Jiang Shu looked puzzled: "What is a brand name?"

"Don't play dumb." The more Shen Mo looked at Jiang Shu, the less he seemed like a good person: "You don't know what a designer brand is?"

"I know about tearing name tags, but does the bureau have an event like 'Run, Evolvers!'?"

Jiang Shu shook his head: "I've only been with the Bureau of Unorthodox Organizations for two days. If you've never had one on your desk, how would I know there's such a thing? Besides, I'm not an official, so it's even less likely I would know about such a regulation."

Shen Mo frowned.

Damn...that makes sense.

"Let's not talk about this." Seeing that Shen Mo had been temporarily steered astray, Jiang Shu quickly changed the subject to avoid making him think about the problem: "Tell me what items are needed for sublimation."

Upon hearing this, Shen Mo gave up thinking about the question and instead said, "What's the rush? You're only level four when you came out of Lie Town. This is something you need to worry about when you're level six."

"Wouldn't it be too late by then?" Jiang Shu pondered. "I was thinking of seeing if I could collect the items while leveling up. Anyway, these things are all produced from the hatchery, right? I can collect them while exploring the hatchery. By the time I've collected enough, my level should be high enough."

"Um..."

Shen Mo pondered for a moment and said:

"I never expected you to be such a time management master."

Indeed, this approach can satisfy both ends, but there's a problem.
