Chapter 47 Entering the Capital

Fang Yue was slightly surprised. Tian Ruichi was easy to talk to.

"Yes, yes, yes, Lord Tian's swordsmanship is unparalleled. A mere tail is not worth mentioning!" Dou Hongyi seized the opportunity to offer his flattery.

Jing Yan and Lin Ling saw this and didn't say anything more.

Fang Yue, however, asked at this moment, "Brother Tian, I wonder why the Emperor summoned me to the capital?"

"The Emperor's will is unfathomable."

Upon hearing this, Tian Ruichi immediately entered the state, putting on that old-fashioned look again, as if it were a conditioned reflex.

Fang Yue looked strange and didn't ask any further questions.

It just so happened that he was already planning to go to the capital. Now that he had an imperial decree, it was equivalent to having an extra amulet.

"Brother Ye, if there's nothing else, then let's prepare early. We'll set off tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?"

Fang Yue was stunned for a moment. "So soon?"

"The imperial decree says to report to the palace immediately, which cannot be delayed."

"..."

Fang Yue didn't say anything, just nodded in agreement.

Jing Yan blinked at Fang Yue at this time and sent him a message.

"Brother Ye, this guy is from the Seventh Prince. Besides conveying the imperial decree, did he ask you anything else?"

"The Seventh Prince?"

Fang Yue searched his brain for information about the Seventh Prince, but it was almost blank. After asking in detail, he roughly knew what kind of person the Seventh Prince was, or rather, what kind of person he was rumored to be.

As for what questions Tian Ruichi had asked, Fang Yue told Jing Yan everything in detail.

"Brother Ye, listening to you, it seems like Tian Ruichi is very interested in you?"

"I'm not sure. Let's just wait and see."

Dou Hongyi said at this time, "Special Envoy, if we set off tomorrow, then I will prepare for the adults' trip overnight."

"Okay, go ahead… Wait, Seventh Prince said that if I find anyone pleasing to the eye, I can mention their name to him. What's your name?"

Dou Hongyi's body trembled immediately.

"Dou, Dou Duanzhao! Qing Si Hongyi, Dou Duanzhao!"

"Noted."

Tian Ruichi waved his hand with an adult-like appearance, looking very mature.

Dou Hongyi didn't care about this. Hearing Tian Ruichi's words, his face blossomed with a smile, and he nodded repeatedly and left.

"Brother Ye, stay here tonight. Let's chat more."

After sending Dou Hongyi away, Tian Ruichi once again stared at Fang Yue.

Fang Yue felt strange being stared at by him. Could it be… gay people are actually all around me??

"Uh… I'm used to living alone."

"Alright, we'll have plenty of time to chat slowly on the road."

Tian Ruichi didn't hide his emotions and revealed obvious disappointment, before returning to his room.

Fang Yue discussed with the others for a while, and then they all went back to rest.

Lying on the bed, Fang Yue exited the game.

Although Chu Nuan City was still in the reconstruction stage, it was still safe to log off in the city with Dou Hongyi and others around.

Picking up the phone by the bed and looking at it, Fang Yue was slightly stunned.

The phone showed several missed calls, all from Qiu Dugu.

Dialing back, he waited for a while.

"Qiu Dugu? Are you looking for me?"

Chairman Qian had taken most of the people from the branch to Haiyu City.

However, the transfer process was relatively complicated, so Qiu Dugu and a small number of others were still in Jianghai City, while the others had already been transferred.

After Sister Yuan knew that Fang Yue hadn't left, she also insisted on staying and leaving with Fang Yue.

Now that Fang Yue was no longer in danger in Chu Nuan City, he had been making preparations in reality these past few days, in addition to dealing with matters in the game.

If there were no accidents, he should be leaving for Haiyu City tomorrow.

Unlike the low transportation efficiency in the game, if you want to go to another city in reality, a plane ride wouldn't take long.

Moreover, the destination was just the neighboring city.

"Fang Yue, come to my office immediately. I have something to tell you."

"Okay."

After leaving the room, Fang Yue first went to find Sister Yuan.

"A Yue!"

Sister Yuan's emotions had been relatively low since Bai Xiaoya's death.

However, as time passed, she slowly accepted this fact and her emotions stabilized a lot.

"Why did you exit the game so early today? Is something wrong?"

"Well, if there are no accidents, we will take a plane to Haiyu City tomorrow. Make your preparations."

Preparations?

Sister Yuan looked at the large and small suitcases that had already been packed in the room, and smiled bitterly. She had already prepared to leave.

Bai Xiaoya's death had a great impact on her, and she had long wanted to leave this city that brought painful memories.

Fang Yue comforted Sister Yuan's emotions for a while, and then walked to the elevator, preparing to go to Qiu Dugu's office.

The elevator opened, and inside stood a man with hair as messy as dead wood, as if he couldn't sleep all day and night, with obvious eye bags.

"You haven't left yet?"

The man raised his eyelids and glanced at Fang Yue without any energy.

"Reporting to Minister Jiang, we will leave tomorrow."

"Okay."

After saying that, Minister Jiang stopped talking.

He was a bit taciturn. He was sent by the Joint Association to replace their group and take charge of the Qing Shui District.

His strength was unknown, but judging from his decadent and strange appearance, he should be carrying a strange object.

With the initial appearance of Tian Shi, the Strange Index soared, and strange events began to occur frequently everywhere.

Without some means, it would be impossible to suppress the current situation.

Not to mention the Qing Shui District, even Haiyu City, where Fang Yue was about to go, was the same.

The two stood silently in the elevator for a while. When it reached the floor, Minister Jiang left first.

Fang Yue looked at the other party's slightly hunched back and shook his head secretly.

Jianghai City was becoming more and more chaotic.

Fortunately, the situation was still under control. The Joint Association seemed to have been prepared for this situation for a long time, and various response measures emerged one after another, forcibly stabilizing the situation.

Watching the elevator floor rise again, Fang Yue slowly closed his eyes to rest.

Chairman Qian had already left with most of the original staff.

And here, elite personnel from the Joint Association headquarters had begun to appear in their building one after another, taking over this area.

Only a few people, such as Fang Yue and Qiu Dugu, had not completely transferred, staying behind to carry out handover work.

Basically, it was the delivery of materials and other aspects. The dangerous work of reducing the Strange Index and searching for suddenly emerging suspected anomalies was temporarily not needed by the two of them.

It was estimated that they would only start this aspect of work again when they arrived in Haiyu City.

And the work they had left in Jianghai City was handed over to the new colleagues.

Minister Jiang was now the head of the Qing Shui District, sent down by the headquarters.

Whether it was an illusion or not, under the threat of [Tian Shi], the entire [Joint Association] was operating, and the air seemed to be filled with a tense atmosphere, as if they were racing against time.

Ding-dong.

The elevator arrived. Fang Yue walked out of the elevator and looked along the corridor. Above the night sky, the yin-yang moon of [Tian Shi] was hanging in the air, exactly the same as in the game!
