Isa sighed slightly: "Is this the reason you came to me?"

"From the tone of your Majesty, it seems that I said something very boring?" Baiban raised his eyebrows.

"Do you expect me to betray the interest groups behind me?" Isa said, looking at the whiteboard with a look of astonishment. "Besides, duelists are also the source of dueling power. In other words, duelists themselves are a vital resource for this society."

"Under these circumstances, there's no way to reduce the duelists' treatment and status."

"What if you don't have the power to duel?" Bai Ban asked suddenly.

Isa's pupils shrank suddenly, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly: "You seem to have said something very interesting, continue."

"Shouldn't they arrest me?" Bai Ban chuckled. "Now that you've said that, Your Majesty should understand who I am, right?"

"Of course I understand." Isa raised her eyebrows and said, "It's the power to overthrow the Duelist Alliance and the possibility of changing the social structure."

"Didn't Your Majesty say that we cannot go against the interest groups behind us?" Bai Ban said softly.

"Did I say that?" Isa said with a playful wink.

Chapter 45: I feel very happy

"What? You're not coming back for dinner?"

A familiar voice rang in his ears. Shi Yu held his head with his hands and pinched the ends of his hair helplessly. He glanced at Yuan Qi who was sitting in the office and explained the topic: "Anyway, there is a temporary task that requires overtime. You guys should eat first and don't wait for me."

After saying that, Shi Yu hung up the phone without hesitation, coughed twice and said, "Ahem, it's solved."

"Do you think this has solved the problem? The other party probably hasn't agreed yet, right?" Yuan Qi squinted his eyes and looked at the dim sunset outside the window.

After coming to this world, Yuan Qi, who was free from smartphones and computers, began to focus on natural scenery. He felt that he would never get tired of looking at the beautiful sunset in front of him for the rest of his life.

"Don't worry, I've done this more than once or twice." Shi Yu stretched lazily and said with lowered eyelids, "It's become a normal thing after work."

"No way? As a member of the special operations team, I only have to work three hours a day. As a senior investigator, shouldn't you enjoy better benefits than me?" Yuan Qi said in surprise.

"I can choose not to do it. I can leave it until tomorrow. I can even pass it on to my subordinates. Then what?" Shi Yu said expressionlessly. "I sit in the office every day, drinking tea and reading the newspaper. When I get bored, I go to the dueling arena to fight a few duels. Then, before 3 pm, I write myself a note to leave early?"

"I don't know about other people, but I became an investigator because I wanted to do something for this society, not to enjoy the so-called welfare benefits." Shi Yu looked at Yuan Qidao seriously.

"It would be great if everyone thought like you." Yuan Qi nodded, but after thinking about it, he wondered if Shi Yu's words were a roundabout way of scolding him?

Not really… I’m new here and don’t know anything, and I have a mission tomorrow too…

Tax thieves and the like have absolutely nothing to do with me!

"Okay, do we want to eat first or duel first?" Shi Yu looked at Yuan Qidao.

"I don't feel like moving after dinner, let's duel first." Yuan Qidao.

"That's exactly what I want." Shi Yu's mouth corners slightly raised, and his blue eyes emitted a faint light.

She also became excited at the thought of dueling with a powerful duelist like Hara Nana.

……

"Beep beep..."

Xuefeng listened to the busy tone in his ear, sighed softly, closed the phone and put it in his pocket.

"How is it? Sister Shigure, will you come back for dinner tonight?" A little girl, about six or seven years old, standing next to Xuefeng, looked up and babbled, pulling at Xuefeng's light white skirt.

"Sister Shigure has to work overtime today, so let's eat first." Xuefeng reached out and touched the little girl's cute head, smiling gently.

"No! Let's wait for Sister Shiyu to come back and have dinner together!" The little girl pouted and said reluctantly.

"Well..." Xuefeng showed an embarrassment. She wanted to wait for Shigure to come back and have dinner together, but...

"No, Yudachi is still a child. He needs to eat and go to bed early." Xuefeng's mother, a young woman with long white hair, walked in from the door carrying a briefcase, and said with a slight hint of anger.

"Yudachi is already seven years old! He's not a child anymore!" Yudachi frowned, and his little face puffed up in anger like a pufferfish.

"Isn't seven years old a child?" The young woman blinked and tilted her head.

"no!"

"Yes."

"No, no~"

"That's it!"

Mom, that childish thing, has started again.

Xuefeng helplessly watched as his mother and younger sister started to quarrel. Usually in this situation, the younger sister would lose because she shouted too loudly and eventually got tired of shouting.

"Hasn't Shigure been promoted to Senior Investigator? Why is she still working overtime like before?" Xuefeng's grandmother, a thin old woman sitting on the sofa, suddenly said, "I don't think other investigators work overtime like she does every day."

"The child has his own ideas, don't worry about him." Xuefeng's father came out of the kitchen wearing an apron and said to Xuefeng, "I'll make some food first. Can you please go to the Duelist Alliance headquarters later?"

"Well, leave it to me." Xuefeng nodded. To be honest, even if she wasn't delivering food to Shigure, she also wanted to go to the Duelist League headquarters again.

She didn't know why, but she always felt like she was missing something...

"Investigator Shigure? She's off work a long time ago." The front desk staff looked at the girl in front of him strangely.

"Off, off work?!" Xuefeng panted slightly, a little incredulous, "When did she leave?!"

"It's probably after five o'clock in the afternoon. Investigator Shigure is a dedicated investigator. I've been working here for so long but I've never seen her leave early." The staff member said this with admiration in his eyes.

"That's not right. If that's the case, why lie..." Xuefeng murmured softly as she stood there. Suddenly, a figure wearing a helmet flashed through her mind. Her intuition told her that Shigure's lie must be related to that person.

"Did Sister Shiyu leave alone? Was there anyone following her when she left?" Xuefeng pursed her lips, staring at the staff in front of her with her blue eyes.

"Let me think, it seems like there was someone following him..." The staff member frowned and began to recall, but to be honest, there were so many people coming and going every day, and her job was just to receive guests and accept consultations. She noticed Shi Yu leaving just by chance, but she didn't remember the person next to Shi Yu very clearly.

At this moment, Avis, who had just finished a day's work, slowly came down from upstairs. The staff looked at the shawl on Avis and clapped their hands, saying, "I remember now!"

"That person is wearing the same shawl as Lord Avis!" the staff member pointed at Avis's shoulders.

"Shawl..." Xuefeng turned around and saw the shawl on Avis's shoulders. Suddenly, he remembered that the person he met at noon seemed to have the same shawl on his shoulders...

"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with? I seemed to hear my name called." Avis came over from a distance and said.

"Um, Mr. Avis, where did you get that shawl?" Xuefeng looked at the man in front of him and asked in a low voice.

"This is a cape specially made by the Alliance for me and my special operations team. Don't you know?" Avis touched his chin in confusion. Is his special operations team so unknown?

Shouldn't they be more active?

Special Operations Team? Aren't they Sister Shigure's subordinates? Wait, that figure...

Xuefeng's pupils shrank suddenly, and she said faintly, "Mr. Avis, can I ask another question?"

"What?" Avis asked in confusion.

"Excuse me, has classmate Yuan Qi contacted you recently?" Xuefeng asked seriously.

Avis felt a chill on his back for some reason, but he nodded and said, "Yes, and now he has started his internship as a member of the special operations team. Didn't you know?"

"That's how it is... That's how it is... That's how it is..." Xuefeng murmured softly.

"Hey, are you okay?" Avis looked at the girl in front of him worriedly, feeling that something was wrong with her.

Xuefeng shook his head, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a "kind" expression: "No, right now I feel... very happy."

Chapter 46: I’ll take care of you in half an hour!

The Duelist's House is a building that specializes in selling duelist-related products. Not only that, they also provide professional dueling venues for duelists, providing convenience for some duelists who do not want to duel in public.

Of course, it costs money.

"Waiter, get a room." Shi Yu walked into the Duelist's House and shouted skillfully.

"What time?" the waiter asked.

"An hour, is that enough?" Shi Yu looked at Yuan Qidao who was standing beside him.

"I'll take care of you in half an hour!"

Of course, such arrogant words were not said by Yuan Qi, but came from another couple who walked into the store.

"Waiter, let's get a room for half an hour too!" the man shouted arrogantly.

"Haha, you're so arrogant. I just don't know who will be the one to deal with whom." The woman next to the man sneered.

"Come on then! If you lose, give me your Infinite Bubble, and if I lose, I'll give you my multiplied G. How about that?"

"Tsk, I don't want your increased G. If you lose, you have to promise me one thing."

"No problem, I won't lose anyway!"

"hehe."

"..."

"Business is booming." Yuan Qi said softly as he looked at the couple.

"How about we drive for half an hour?" Shi Yu chuckled and teased Yuan Qidao.

"Do you think it will take you half an hour to get rid of me?" Yuan Qi raised his eyebrows.

"You look like you want to finish me off in half an hour," Shigure pointed at Hara Nanami, "your confidence is overflowing from your face."

"Is it that obvious?" Yuan Qi touched his face and said.

"Yes, yes." Shi Yu nodded, took the key from the waiter and said, "Has another powerful card been printed?"

"Yes." Yuan Qi nodded.

Shi Yu's face froze, and he forced a smile: "It really printed out."

Is this a PBOC card printing machine?

I heard Nibiru was recently printed? That's terrifying.

However... Shi Yu touched the deck on his waist and his expression became serious.

I have to win this duel.

Yuan Qi followed Shi Yu to the duel room. The room looked about the size of a basketball court. The floor seemed to be covered with a layer of artificial blanket, and even the walls felt soft to the touch.

"To prevent the duelists from getting hurt, at least the pain will be reduced a little." Shigure said, taking off his shoes. "You take them off too. After we're done and have a simple cleanup, other people will need them."

"To avoid getting it dirty?" Hara Qi nodded, agreeing with Shi Yu's approach.

Then the two of them stood at opposite ends of the room, raised their duel disks and said:

"duel!"

"duel!"

"drop!"

A crisp sound rang out from Yuan Qi's duel disk. Yuan Qi's eyes lit up and he shouted without hesitation, "I choose to go first!"

"Tsk, isn't it a bad start?" Shi Yu frowned and gently drew five cards from the deck.

"Huh...this set of cards..." Shi Yu looked at the cards he had drawn and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Although I lost the initiative, the quality of the cards I drew was surprisingly good.

"Maybe if I get it right, I can actually win the duel in half an hour." Shi Yu looked at the cards in his hand and chuckled.

"Then I enter the main phase." Yuan Qi announced the start of his turn, then inserted a card from his hand into the duel board and said, "I play a continuous magic card - the sound of the string that cuts through the world!"

Accompanied by a burst of white light, a permanent magic card appeared in the center of Yuan Qi's backcourt.

"I've never heard of this card. Is this your new card? What's the effect?" Shi Yu looked at the continuous magic card on the original field, trying to figure out the effect of this card from the card image.

Of course, that kind of thing is impossible.

Yuan Qi chuckled, slapped a hand card on the duel disk and said, "This will tell you its effect."

"First, I Normal Summon Raynor Heart of the Pearly Tear Singer!"

As soon as Yuan Qi finished speaking, Renohart, holding a long whip, appeared in front of Yuan Qi with a smile on his face.

"I'll activate Renoheart's effect first!" Hara Nana stretched out her hand. "This can only be activated if this card is successfully Normal Summoned or Special Summoned. Send one "Pearl Tear Lament" monster from your deck, other than "Pearl Tear Lament - Renoheart," to the Graveyard!"

Yuan Qi continued to point at the continuous magic card on his field and said, "Then, I will chain activate the effect of the String Sound of the World on my field!"

"When a monster is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned on the field, if you control a "Tearful Lament" monster or "Visas Starfrost", you can activate this card. Send the top 3 cards of your deck to the Graveyard. During this turn, the ATK of monsters your opponent controls decreases by 500!"

“c1c2!”
