"Have you ever thought about changing jobs?" Franca interrupted, "I feel that Boss Silver-Ash is very strict. Won't he be tired?"
"Job hopping?" Jian repeated it silently. This word was really an unfamiliar word to her. "No."
Franca encouraged him, "You might as well give it some more thought. Our Bingshi is pretty good. The work is easy, the pay is good, and the boss has a great temper."
Razer couldn't help but cough, and Miss Franka winked at her, then smiled and said nothing.
Changing jobs will probably never happen to her, Jian thought secretly. The president was the one who pulled her out of the quagmire of Casimir, so it goes without saying that he was very kind to her. Later, she also witnessed with her own eyes how Kalan City gradually grew from a backward small place to what it is now. If a person can witness the process of something changing, many wonderful feelings will naturally arise in his heart.
She was tired of the noisy Casimir Arena and the hypocritical knights and nobles. As long as the president did not say anything, she would probably stay in Kjerag.
Miss Razer's words brought her out of her thoughts: "Mace, are you here today to check the security of Bingshi?"
Mace remembered SilverAsh's explanation that the situation of the Business Federation was questionable. For the sake of Kjerag's overall interests, the relevant information could not be made known to Icestone's people. He could only follow Razer's words and said:
"Well, the president asked me to keep an eye on the safety of the Ice Stone delegation, so I'll come over to check, but since you two are here, I'll focus on Lady Saint from now on."
At this point, she checked the time and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, the Saint Lady is waiting for me now, I can't stay here for long."
"It's okay, go ahead and do your work, we'll talk when you have time." Razer said.
When Jian stood up and was about to step out of the door, Miss Razer suddenly asked again: "Jian, is there anything we need to pay attention to when we come to Kalan City this time?"
In an instant, a miniature game of chess went through her mind. On one side was the president's order, and on the other was one of the few colleagues in her life who had once trusted each other. Thinking of the fact that the Business Federation might appear, she whispered:
"Kalan City... after it opens, all kinds of people may come here. Kalan trade must always be on the lookout for enemies, so it's better to pay more attention to it in normal times."
……
After Jian left, Franka couldn't help but say, "Miss Jian hasn't changed at all. She's still that taciturn person. No wonder she trusted you so much in the beginning. Are you guys who don't like to talk attracted to each other?"
Razer said seriously: "Now is not the time to discuss this. I will report the intelligence to Miss Olicia first."
Franca sat on the sofa and continued to sigh: "You report, I am just very emotional. Two years ago, when we parted, he said that he would come to Kjerag to see her during his vacation, but he never came once. This time he really came, and we each served our own masters. We had to calculate and plan a few words."
"That can't be helped." Razer said helplessly, "Why did you say you wanted to change jobs today?"
"I just tested her, but the result was the same. I think Boss SilverAsh has her in his hands."
"I mean, have you thought it through? Do you really want to leave Black Steel?"
Franka looked into Razer's eyes, was silent for a moment, and then nodded: "Really, I'm not daydreaming, nor am I just bragging, I'm thinking about myself. You know, I have oripathy, but I don't want to go to Rhodes Island. I don't want to think about myself as a patient every day and have to use my abilities in exchange for a chance to be treated, at least not now. That would make me feel like I'm imprisoned."
"Also, I now know a little bit about the inside story of the company. Ice Stone is definitely an important partner of Rhodes Island. Those so-called relief drugs are actually inhibitors. I can get inhibitors here, and I can also use my expertise, so..."
Razer asked calmly, "So when are you going to tell Miss Olicia?"
"Wait a little longer, until we can accomplish something. I feel like I haven't made any real contribution in all the time I've been in the company. But that won't be the case in the future. You can see that people like us are indispensable to the company's future development. When the time comes, I'll naturally mention it to Miss Olicia."
As she spoke, Ms. Franka treated Razer as Olicia and said in a negotiating tone: "Ms. Olicia, look, I have been in charge of these tasks for so long. If you assign them to others, not only will they not be able to do them well, but they will also need a long time to get used to them. How about continuing to sign the contract?"
"Okay." Razer nodded.
"Isn't that good?" Franca said happily, but her expression soon dimmed again, "When the time comes, you..."
"I'll accompany you." Razer spoke involuntarily.
"you……"
Razer knew he had said something wrong, so he coughed and explained seriously, "According to the evaluation results of the safety indicators, there is a big gap in Icestone's future defense work, so staying here can better hone people. I joined Black Steel for the same purpose."
Chapter 2023 Crisis 05-17-12 00:02:
Miss White Wolf was just bored and alone when she suddenly received a message from Miss Razer.
The other party told her that there was a small problem between him and Franka, so Kalan Trading specially installed protective cameras.
This scared her so much that she even wanted to run over and ask Chuxue what was going on. She typed, "Do you mean I'm being monitored?"
"You misunderstood. What I meant was that Kalan Trade is searching for suspicious people. They believe that suspicious people have entered Kalan City, and most of them want to contact us."
"You mean Casimir's side?"
"That's right. You were once disturbed by assassins hired by the Commerce Union during your trip to Longmen, and your trip this time is still a public trip. Since Kalan Trade has suddenly strengthened its defenses, it is very likely that they have discovered that spies from the Commerce Union have infiltrated. You need to pay attention to the people around you. I am worried that those spies will try to get close to you in the next few days."
This is indeed true, Miss White Wolf thought, but the Chamber of Commerce acted faster and had already sent people to her side.
But how did Kalan Trade know this? Miss Platinum's identity is currently hidden, which means that someone else in the Commercial Federation leaked the news?
That shouldn't be the case. Miss Platinum mentioned that her boss was a very meticulous person, and the other companion was a high-ranking knight known for his prudence. Both of them were hiding in an ordinary town far away from Kalan City with no defense measures. Unless it was intentional, how could they have aroused the vigilance of Kalan Trade?
Or maybe I was overthinking it. In fact, the reason for strengthening precautions was just because the grand ceremony was approaching, and there was no other meaning at all.
While thinking, she sent a message to Miss Razer: "I understand. Kalan Trade and we have a positive cooperative relationship. Don't worry for now. If they want to lure out the hidden spies of the Commercial Federation, let them do it. You continue to observe and report to me immediately if there is any new situation."
After talking with Miss Razer, Miss White Wolf started to think to herself: Could the person that Kalan Trading is looking for be Platinum?
How many people did the Chamber of Commerce send over? Miss Platinum thought she was the only one, but could the board of directors have secretly sent other people over?
No matter what, since this has happened, Platinum is no longer suitable to stay in the board of directors.
She thought about it and finally came up with the most reliable plan. After Bai Jin came back, she would explain everything to the other party and let Bai Jin stay in a nearby hotel and observe for a while as an "ordinary tourist".
Without further ado, she immediately took out her cell phone and sent a message to the other party, asking if Bai Jin had finished his work.
……
At the same time, Jian was walking on the way to the board of directors, thinking about what had just happened.
Even now, she still felt that meeting Razer and Franka was an incredible thing, especially since both sides were in different positions.
The camera was still installed there without moving, but she had no intention of checking it. She was the Black Knight who was known for her force, while Miss Razer and the others were professionally trained security personnel. If there was really any problem, the other party would only discover it faster and more clearly.
She just needs to ask Razer if there is anything unusual every once in a while. Now she can focus more on the Saint and Miss Olisia.
Thinking of Miss Olivia, she suddenly realized a strange fact.
Originally, she thought that the people staying in the tourist hotel were ordinary employees, so there was no problem in separating from Olicia. But now, she clearly knew that the two people in the hotel were elite security personnel of Black Steel, so why did Olicia choose to separate?
When the president was analyzing Olicia's information, she had also learned about it and knew that the other party was a military noble of Ursus, so she might have certain attainments in swordsmanship.
But the fact is that Olicia is just a young noble lady after all, and she has devoted a lot of time to the company and scientific research affairs. How can her self-defense ability compare with that of Black Steel's professionals?
There are certainly many young people in this world who excel in all aspects. Her current boss is one of them. Could it be that Miss Olicia can reach the level of Lord Enthyotis?
She shook her head secretly, knowing that she was daydreaming. It was surprising enough to see a person like this.
Getting closer and closer to the board of directors' office, only three streets away, Jian couldn't help but secretly wonder in his heart whether the Saint Lady would be in the lounge on the third floor or in the office on the fourth floor this time.
Suddenly, she saw a figure appear from the corner in front of her, holding a small paper bag of pastries in his hand, and walking in the same direction as her.
An almost instinctive intuition made her narrow her eyes.
People can forget many things and many people, but there is always a type of person who, no matter how they disguise themselves, can be recognized at a glance by their disgust and hatred from the bottom of their hearts.
She recognized him as the most vicious Fang in the Commerce Federation, a high-ranking member of the Casimir Helmetless Alliance. This was not the first or second time she had seen that man.
The other party is a platinum lord.
The people of the Helmetless Alliance have a peculiarity: they can kill any top warrior silently, but if they face off, even a Platinum Knight may not be able to defeat a random Pegasus Knight.
But in her hands, she could even kill the opponent as easily as killing a young animal.
Generally speaking, when dealing with high-level assassins of the No Helmet Alliance, there is always one rule that can be followed as a golden rule - kill them immediately.
Because every second they exist, there will be countless unknown dangerous variables.
But Jian did not draw her weapon immediately, because she was puzzled by one thing: why this top assassin could be so careless as to not realize that he was exposed to her sight.
This is totally wrong. It would be more accurate if the two sides swapped their positions.
Could it be that this was a bait for her? Was there a higher-level assassin lurking in the crowd?
impossible.
The Helmetless Alliance should understand how difficult it is to assassinate them. The failure in Casimir should have taught them a lesson. Even the dumbest decision-makers would not let assassins travel all the way to Kjerag's home turf to specifically target her.
But why is that? A man who is looking down at his phone and holding a bag of Kjerag's traditional pastries is actually the platinum leader of the No Helmet Alliance?
The strange situation before her changed her mind. She gave up her plan of instant kill and took her right hand away from her usual mace to hold the hilt of the sword instead.
Cripple or capture alive, perhaps this is more meaningful to the president.
She didn't have to rush into action. Anyway, the opponent was firmly under her control. She could follow and see where this assassin from the Wuzhou League was going.
-----------
Chapter 2023: Joining the Game05-18-12 00:04:
Jian's doubts were justified from many perspectives. She had dealt with the assassins of the Wu Zhou League countless times and knew that the latter's high-ranking members should not be like they are now.
It's as if... my abilities have degraded.
In fact, Bai Jin's strength in all aspects has not deteriorated at all. On the contrary, due to various training, she is much stronger than when Mace first met her many years ago. She is now fully worthy of the title of Great Bai Jin.
But as if it was fate, she repeated the path of the previous Platinum Lord and possessed that fatal weakness.
Before Mace discovered Platinum, the latter always maintained the highest level of vigilance, and the outcome of the two people's encounter is still unknown.
When she reached the corner of the street, Bai Jin could already see the office building from afar, which meant that she would be able to meet Miss White Wolf in just a few minutes. She relaxed her vigilance slightly, but not completely.
But at this time, she received a text message from Miss White Wolf, asking her if she had finished her work.
Are you bored being alone? She thought, don't worry, I'll go and accompany you right away.
A faint smile of joy appeared on the corner of her mouth. She looked up at the building in the distance, focused her attention on the text message, and typed a reply to the other party.
There is only one person in this world who can make her like this, who can let her let down her guard and focus on him without distraction.
She bought some fragrant and crispy little cakes made with Shelag's unique snow goat milk. She didn't want them to be cold, so she waited for a long time at the door of the store, waiting for a freshly baked cake, which would be the sweetest and softest pastry.
Miss White Wolf likes sweets, but she hardly goes out since she came to Kalan City. She must not have eaten this before. Wait a little longer, she will be here soon...
The top assassin of the Wuzhou League was thus exposed to the eyes of his enemies.
However, the cause and effect of things are never linear, and the unpredictable cause and effect make them complicated and unfathomable.
At this moment, Miss Platinum was in an extremely dangerous position because of White Wolf without knowing it, but if she had not received any news from White Wolf and still remained vigilant as an assassin, then, would Mace's decision be to use the mace of the three-time defending knight competition champion to directly wipe her out?
What if she received the message but didn't have time to read it? Would the two of them discover each other together, thus starting a chase between two people of unequal strength? Or would Bai Jin discover the mace first and immediately hide in the dark?
Fate chooses one of countless possibilities, making all other possibilities pale in comparison.
On the surface, this is just a question of whether Miss Platinum can receive the message and in what state she will receive the message. It seems unintentional and purely a matter of chance. But if there was no visit from Mace, no communication from Razer, and no layout from the Business Federation, would Miss White Wolf still send the message at that time?
Therefore, chess players often use momentum to guide the game, and then let it evolve on its own. This is the reason.
Mace maintained the longest distance possible to control the enemy, and followed Platinum silently. The further she moved forward, the more frightened she felt, because the road the other party was taking was actually the road leading to the board of directors' office.
Further ahead is the last fork in the road. If you go straight, it means continuing along the main street of Kalan City. If you turn right into a sparsely populated fork in the road, then your destination will definitely be the directorate at the end.
Is the other party's target the board of directors? Mace couldn't help but think that the Saint Lady is currently in the board of directors, and Miss Olicia of Bingshi is also in the board of directors.
If the assassins of the Wuzun League go to the board of directors...
The president once analyzed that the Trade Union had never really given up on the Kjerag market, so it was impossible for the assassins to target the Kjerag people's beliefs. This was also true based on past negotiations with the Trade Union. They had planned many conspiracies, but for the Kjerag religion, it was like facing a taboo.
In other words, her target is most likely Olicia? Is she trying to get her into trouble in Kjerag so that she can be blamed? The president had also discussed this issue before. The Business Federation would not necessarily choose to assassinate. As long as they could injure the other party, many things would become complicated.
Mace's gaze gradually locked onto the Platinum Great Position, and her wrists moved from the long sword to the double maces again. Regardless of her previous thoughts, if the opponent's target was the board of directors where the Saint and Olicia were, then she could only use all her strength to avoid any possible accidents.
However, the assassin of the Wuzhou League still kept his head down and stared at his phone, moving straight forward without even looking at the fork in the road. This made Jian feel a little relieved, and he continued to follow him in confusion.
Miss Bailang received a message from Baijin: "I suddenly received an urgent mission and have to go over. Don't wait for me."
How strange, she said to herself. She was just saying she would be right back and she had already reached the intersection. How come she suddenly received an urgent task?
She felt uneasy, put her phone down, picked it up again, and looked through the message records between the two. The last message was simply devastating.
Isn't it said that communication can only be done through secret channels? Why can I still receive tasks when I am near the directorate? Is there another way?
She quickly sent a line of text: "What mission? Can you come back for a while?"
One second, two seconds...
The text message that could have been replied to instantly suddenly disappeared.
The feeling of uneasiness was greatly magnified. Miss White Wolf instantly thought of Razer's reminder, the special measures that Kalan Trade suddenly implemented, the members of the Trade Union who were in Kjerag but seemed to be out of the matter, and the unclear message from the director that Miss Platinum conveyed...
A terrible guess gradually took shape.
Is this the real plan of the Chamber of Commerce?
The Marquis's advice was never wrong. When facing such an enemy, he had to be extremely alert even if he was dealing with it personally. If he was even slightly careless, he would be trapped in the game.
