At that time, she was thinking that it was her old identity as a member of the No Heir Alliance that frightened the Saint, which led to her panicked reaction. But now, she thought of more things. The Saint was obviously not afraid of her during the day, so why did she panic when she met her when she was delivering something to the White Wolf? Why did the first question the other party asked her was "What happened to Miss Olicia?"

Bai Jin couldn't help but look at the people around him.

Miss White Wolf peeled open a mini cake, sniffed it, licked it gently, and squinted her eyes happily. Like a little bear holding honey, she ate the cake in small bites.

Bai Jin stared for a while. In her eyes, Miss Bailang's lips looked like red cherry petals, so beautiful and sweet. She suddenly wanted to taste them very, very much.

She resisted the urge. She could have tasted the cherry petals, but not now. She felt happy that she had the right and that the present moment was beautiful.

She already has so much, why should she bother herself with messy things?

Miss Hatsuyuki is the saint of Shelag. A saint is not an ordinary person, and she probably won’t have the kind of situation that she is worried about.

The reason why I think so is probably because I have been thinking about finding a "rival in love" these past two days. I am too sensitive, and as a result, everyone seems to have bad intentions towards Miss Bailang. But in fact, how can there be so many rivals in love in the world?

Thinking of this, Miss Bai Jin relaxed again and picked up the pastries to taste them. However, it would be boring to just eat at such a good time, so she rubbed White Wolf gently with her shoulder.

"What's wrong?" asked White Wolf.

"Take out your computer. We can find a movie to watch while we eat. I want to hear your review."

"Uh, I'm just ranting, and I don't have a computer at the moment."

"No? Wasn't it still there when I left this afternoon?"

"I gave it to Miss Hatsuyuki. I was planning to get the spare phone in the evening, but I was delayed by sleep. I'll do it tomorrow morning."

"Why does she need your computer?" Miss Platinum narrowed her eyes dangerously.

"It was hard for Kjerag to buy a microcomputer, and she was probably too embarrassed to ask her brother for one, so I gave her one."

Miss Bai Jin smiled kindly and said, "So you two have a pretty good relationship. I thought you were just generally familiar with each other."

"It's better than just being familiar with each other. After all, we have had more contact, and..." Miss White Wolf suddenly lowered her voice and said mysteriously, "She was planning to introduce me to her brother before."

This time, it was Bai Jin's turn to be surprised. She stared at Bai Lang intently and didn't even touch the snacks on the table.

"I guessed you would be like this." Miss White Wolf snickered, "Don't worry, she just asked casually, the answer is of course impossible, how about it, are you scared?"

"No." Bai Jin shook his head.

"Huh, you're just being frightened."

"I'm not scared, because I have confidence in you and me." Miss Bai Jin showed a strange smile on her face, "The little white wolf should have been led astray by me a long time ago."

Miss White Wolf was of course unwilling to accept it: "Who said that? Why can't it be that I led you astray?"

"You led me astray? How is that possible? I led you astray in Columbia, okay?"

Having said this, Bai Jin suddenly came to his senses.

That's right, it was she who led Miss White Wolf astray. She had already made substantial breakthroughs in Columbia. Although the Dragon Girl knew White Wolf earlier, a similar breakthrough must have happened later. So from this perspective, she should be ahead of the Dragon Girl. She is the first and should have more rights.

Humph, that dragon girl is so hateful. She actually sneaked up on the white wolf. I must find a way to get rid of her.

Chapter 2023: Human Limitations05-26-12 00:02:

Bai Jin thought about it and felt that the matter of the Dragon Girl still needed to be considered carefully. After all, she had promised Bai Lang some things on the surface, and the most important thing at the moment was Miss Chuxue.

She turned around and looked into Bai Lang's eyes: "Are you sure Chuxue is talking about introducing you to her brother?"

"Hey, if you still don't believe it, who else could it be?"

"I believe it. I believe it one hundred percent." Miss Platinum nodded perfunctorily, and thought of the gift she gave to White Wolf, which was the small statue of the Saint.

Sending the enemy's statue away is just digging a hole for yourself no matter how you look at it. Although the identity of this enemy cannot be 100% confirmed, it is enough to be put on the warning list.

She pretended to ask casually, "Where is that little statue? The statue of the saint I gave you yesterday."

"It's in the box, do you want to see it?"

"Give it back to me. I'll give you something else someday." Bai Jin then explained, "We all know who the Saint is now, and we'll all meet each other someday. It would be inappropriate if you were seen taking someone else's statue."

"That makes sense." Bai Lang took out the statue and handed it to Bai Jin. "If it's someone you know, it's really inappropriate. Holding a figurine of someone you know is like holding a figurine of Yan Country's witchcraft."

"What is Yan Country's witch?"

"An evil curse in ancient Yan country. Basically, you take a doll of your enemy and prick it with a needle. It is said that when you prick the doll, the corresponding part of its owner will develop a disease. Don't you think it is evil?"

"It's quite strange. This is a hundred times more clever than the methods of the Wuzhou League."

"But it has no scientific or Originium technical basis, even though it is widely circulated."

"Since it is widely circulated, does it mean that there is some truth to it?"

"Listen to me, it doesn't make sense. If you insist on finding its root, I tend to understand it as a derivative of idolatry in primitive witchcraft."

"Tell me something." Miss Bai Jin sat next to Bai Lang and got closer to him. She liked to chat with Bai Lang about strange things when she could touch him.

"You want to hear it? I'm just talking nonsense."

Bai Jin hugged the white wolf's tail and scratched his chin with the tip of the tail: "I want to listen. Anyway, there is nothing to do now. It's still early to go to bed."

"Well then." Miss White Wolf cleared her throat and said seriously, "First of all, humans are stupid creatures."

"Hey, you're scolding yourself."

"This is not an insult, but an objective description. Let me rephrase it: To some extent, humans are stupid creatures. How about that?"

Bai Jin couldn't help but reach out his hand, hugged Miss Bailang's soft waist, and said with a smile: "Yeah, you are being rigorous, my great scientist Miss Bailang."

"It's a philosopher." Miss White Wolf corrected seriously.

"Well, Miss Philosopher, what then?"

"One aspect of human stupidity, or rather, limitation, is that we are still unable to escape from the state of irrational ignorance."

"Are you talking about the witch? Is Yan Country still using this?"

"No, on the contrary, the Yan people have long stopped believing in this stuff. It is said that only those who live in seclusion in the mountains still spread this stuff."

"Isn't this the end of ignorance? Leithania's bloodletting therapy is no longer used, and Sargon's cannibals are rarely seen. Now there are mobile cities and high-rise buildings everywhere. Even Kjerag is different. I think humans have long gotten rid of the ignorance you mentioned."

"So I think people always think they have gotten rid of the irrational state of ignorance, but in fact ignorance just stays with people in a different form. Why does the witch figurine exist? Its most likely origin is idolatry. Idols are the concrete expression of the objects they symbolize. People learned to use idols very early and basically believed that worshipping idols is beneficial to the objects they symbolize, while destroying idols is harmful to the objects they symbolize. So people would worship their ancestors and idols, and they would also burn straw men that symbolize the enemy and burn the enemy's military flags, because straw men and flags also represent symbols."

"Then the witch you mentioned..."

"The witch figurine is a symbol of the enemy. The nature of acupuncture and burning is the same, both are destructive, so the whole witchcraft process is just a variation of the original behavior. Although witchcraft such as the witch figurine is no longer believed in, idol worship, or symbol worship, has never disappeared. This symbol worship often contains a collection of irrational and ignorant factors of human beings."

"White Wolf, don't be so abstract, be more specific."

"Then let me give you an example that you must know. Have you ever seen that famous singer, the fan of the stewardess?"

"No, but I've seen similar fan clubs for movie stars."

"That's easy to understand. Fan groups are a variation of standard symbolic worship. In the eyes of fans, the individual 'star' is not just a person, but also symbolizes more beautiful fantasies and value identification factors. When fans fanatically pursue them and create information cocoons in their small circles, influencing each other like a mob, terrible irrational ignorance emerges."

"How scary is that?"

"I can't say for sure." Miss White Wolf looked quite serious. "It can make people ignore the reality and make gentle people become extremely fierce and aggressive. They think that this kind of attack is for some sacred purpose, as if..."

"An Iberian cult?"

"It's a very vivid description, but the fan phenomenon is often difficult to reach such an exaggerated level. And the example I gave is relatively one-sided. In regions with different economic and cultural environments, the forms of symbol worship vary. In the backward areas of Sargon, people don't know what a star is. On the other hand, in some prosperous urban areas of Colombia, people are no longer interested in stars and have turned to worshipping some strange symbols."

Miss Platinum tried to keep up with White Wolf's pace: "In Kjerag and Lateran, the symbols people worship are still religion, right?"

"That's right." Miss White Wolf pointed to the statue of the saint on the table. "At present, the reason why religious worship does not show ignorance is because it is led by rational and intelligent people. But if we look further and look at the religious wars launched by Larant hundreds of years ago, and the bloody disputes between the Iberian Inquisition and pagans, we will have new discoveries."

Miss Bai Jin lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her head and looked deeply at Miss Bai Lang: "But what if I say that I also have this kind of worship, that is, the irrational, almost stupid worship you mentioned, which is not completely worship, but also something else, something particularly intense, and I can't control myself at all."

"That's normal." Miss White Wolf said calmly, "So what I said before is that humans are stupid creatures, including you and me. We are all stupid. Those who are pretentious are just stupid in a different way. There is a concept of original sin in Lateran mythology. I think it can be slightly modified. Stupidity is the original sin of humans, and the limitations of the human framework are the punishment of the gods."

Chapter 2023: Layout and Breakthrough 05-27-12 00:01:

Miss Bai Jin was stunned for a while, barely understood what the other party meant, scratched her head, and couldn't help but sighed:

"You always have something that makes sense, but it's a little complicated to understand."

"In fact, don't believe these things too much. Any theory can be one-sided. Maybe I am trapped by personal objective factors and my thinking is limited. If you change your perspective, you will find that although humans always fail to learn lessons, haven't they developed to this point day by day? Should the current scientific progress be denied? Is it possible that what I said just now was too extreme because I was obsessed with one perspective?"

Miss Bai Jin had a headache. She had just worked so hard to follow the White Wolf's idea, but was suddenly hit by its master. She felt awkward and dissatisfied. "Then there is nothing certain now, right?"

"No, everyone should have their own determination. Only the subject can measure the value, but at the same time, we also need..."

"Stop." Miss Bai Jin suddenly hugged Bai Lang tightly from behind and complained, "I'm not listening, I'm not listening. You've confused me. You always change the subject to something strange."

As she spoke, her eyes passed over Miss White Wolf's shoulder, down to her delicate white collarbone, and then to the graceful, gradually rising hills that looked like a work of art. It was neither abrupt nor poor, and everything seemed just right.

An idea then naturally came to her mind. She wanted to slide her palm down along Miss White Wolf's collarbone little by little, and use her fingertips and palms to carefully feel that graceful and fertile area.

It is worth mentioning that she did not have the slightest bit of trepidation at this moment. She simply felt that it was too beautiful and subconsciously wanted it that way. If possible, she also wanted to put a pure kiss on it.

Will Miss White Wolf agree? I'm afraid Miss White Wolf will just bite her. It's really a headache. Why can't the stupid White Wolf understand her feelings?

Miss Bailang was not distracted like Baijin. She was still explaining things to her girlfriend seriously: "You misunderstood. I didn't change the subject. You were the first one to ask me what a voodoo figurine was, and then you wanted to listen, so I went off topic."

Bai Jin felt that the topic the other party was talking about was out of this world. She just wanted to touch that ups and downs. She responded absentmindedly: "Didn't you mention the witchcraft villain first?"

"Well, that's right, but you mentioned first that the statue of the Saint is not an appropriate gift."

Miss Bai Jin realized that she was being dragged into trouble by the fussy Miss Bai Lang. Once she started to reason, it would be difficult for her to win over her, so she quickly interrupted her with a topic that interested her:

"Okay, none of this matters. Let's get down to business. What should we do next? We still have to deal with the Chamber of Commerce."

Miss Bailang changed her mind, thought for a moment, and said, "Tomorrow afternoon, President Yinhui will return to Kalan City. I will explain everything to him first. Miss Chuxue has promised that only she, Jian, Yinhui and others know about this matter, and it will not be leaked, so you can deal with the people from the Business Federation normally. When will you go to deliver the message tomorrow?"

"According to the regulations, it should be in the afternoon, and no later than 8pm. So, should I go there as usual?"

"No, tomorrow, let's go in the early morning."

"It's past that time, I guess I can't get in touch with you."

"Not necessarily." Miss White Wolf said thoughtfully.

If it is really the Chamber of Commerce that is behind this and has leaked the news to Kalan Trade, then based on the logic of the development of events, tomorrow's communication will be a very important one.

Imagine that the director used the news about Bai Jin as a chess move, and then lost contact with the latter. What would he think? Did he think that he was in control of the situation?

In this situation, would the director immediately go to rest with peace of mind, or would he become more vigilant and worried, always prepared for possible changes?

Miss White Wolf tends to believe the latter scenario is true, and speculates that the other party will spend a longer time guarding the dedicated communicator, waiting for possible news.

She went on to add: "The first wave of contact will be around 2 a.m. If you can't get in touch, contact again at 3 a.m., and I will accompany you then."

"Ah? Why is this?"

"I guess he might be anxious if he doesn't receive any news, but the more anxious he is, the harder it is to let him get the news. I might as well keep him company. At 2 a.m., most people would get tired of waiting and go to bed, so this is a good time."

"But it's very troublesome to answer the secret line. If he goes to rest, we really can't contact him. Then we would be fools to work in the middle of the night."

Miss White Wolf smiled cunningly, stretched out her hand to grab Bai Jin's tail and played with it in her arms: "Silly Bai Jin, think about it more. What will happen if you really can't contact him? Your director woke up in the morning and found that you made multiple emergency calls in the early morning, but he didn't answer. This is terrible. Multiple contacts with intervals mean that you are free to act and have not been caught by the people of Kalan Trade. Did he miss the important information you wanted to provide? Should he regret waiting a little longer yesterday? Will he wonder if the information he missed may determine the development of the situation? Do you think he will think so?"

Miss Bai Jin reached out her hand, grasped the white wolf's palm, and stroked her tail together. At the same time, she thought and said, "He is a person with a strong sense of control and is also very suspicious. He wants to know everything clearly. I think he should... maybe."

"So he was thinking hard, but couldn't figure out what he had missed, and couldn't figure out what you were trying to convey. Besides, Kalan City was heavily guarded during the ceremony, and people of his status wouldn't dare come here. What do you think we should do?"

"But I don't think it's a big deal. He just needs to wait in front of the communicator and wait for me to convey the message next time, right?"

"But." Miss White Wolf smiled happily and cruelly, "He won't be able to wait for the news. He will see that everything in Kalan City is normal. He won't get any news for two days and two nights. If he is a person with a strong sense of control, he will experience a loss of control. If he is a suspicious person, he will be forced to endure the torment of seeking for an answer without a solution. I really want to see if he can continue to make decisions calmly under such circumstances."

Miss Bai Jin was stunned for a long time, and rubbed the other person's cheek convincedly: "White Wolf, why do you have so many weird things in your head? If I opened a company, I would never think of going against you."

She also had a question: Why was she always able to gain the upper hand when she was with Miss White Wolf? In the current situation, the other party was as cunning as a fox, and she couldn't catch up with her even if she flattered her horse.

Miss Bailang said embarrassedly: "It's just simple business competition. It's mainly because Bingshi is in a weak position and is bullied by them. I have no choice but to be more careful. If you start a company, you will definitely do whatever you want."

"Well, if possible, I will make my company much bigger, even bigger than the Business Federation."

"Yes, that's good."

"And then give it to you as a gift."

Looking at Miss White Wolf who suddenly stopped talking, Miss Platinum was very happy. Who said that she had to be smarter than the fox? Didn't she just need to learn how to catch the fox and carry it away?

Chapter 2023: One Step Further05-28-12 00:02:

Although she wanted to tease the silent and red-faced Miss White Wolf, the important business was right in front of her, so Bai Jin did not delay and asked:

"What if the director happens to be waiting in front of the communicator when I contact him in the early morning?"

"Then take another approach. Tell him that you have discovered an extremely important piece of information: the Black Knight who disappeared many years ago has appeared in Kalan City, and seems to have reached some kind of deal with Kalan Trade. The city's defenses have also suddenly increased. You are worried about being discovered, so you hide. You only find an opportunity to report this information after ensuring your safety in the early morning. In addition, because of the sudden appearance of the Black Knight, you were forced to interrupt the original mission and did not achieve much results. Then ask him what to do next? Try to ask more details of the action. I will consider the response plan based on his response."
