Chapter 223 The Second Cellphone...
Yan Shi carefully touched each of the floating, colored dots of light.
The green and red colors exude a soft warmth, while the blue is very lively, affectionately entwining around her fingertips.
The dark gold and deep yellow specks of light stayed further away, only hesitatingly approaching when she reached out her hand, gently brushing against the back of her hand.
A very few black specks of light floated forlornly on the edge. They seemed to be repelled by the other colored clusters of light, silent and aloof.
When Yanshi reached out to touch it, the black light swayed and retreated, silently hiding in the corner.
Yan Shi pouted.
There's definitely a reason why the black dot is isolated!
"Yan Bureau?"
Unable to hear any movement from inside, Jie Sheng called out anxiously from outside.
Yan Shi reluctantly bid farewell to the light spots and slowly pushed open the door of the testing device: "I'm fine."
As soon as the door opened, the spiritual energy inside the testing device, so dense it became tangible, surged out and dissipated into the air in tiny specks.
When Yan looked back, the various small orbs of light were no longer there.
She paused slightly, lowered her gaze with some regret, then looked up at Bian Zheng, who had been waiting beside her: "What is the attribute of the platinum-gold spiritual energy cluster?" Yan Shi asked.
She was very curious about the first specks of light that merged into her body.
Upon hearing this, Bian Zheng's expression changed slightly, and a clear look of astonishment flashed in his eyes: "Platinum gold?!"
Before she could react, Yu Youguan exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't Director Yan a great fire-type spirit master?!"
Yan Shi turned his head to look at her: "Hmm?"
Bian Zheng quickly composed herself, her expression returning to calm: "The platinum color is the spirit of light." She took a deep breath and solemnly confirmed, "Director Yan, is it the platinum light cluster that is closest to you, and not the red one?"
Yan Shi: "Hmm. Platinum." She summarized simply, "I suspect that the Light Spirit is involved in bullying other colored light points."
"They dare not approach when the Light Spirit is present."
The group looked at each other in bewilderment.
Yan Shi noticed they were all silent and asked, somewhat puzzled, "What's wrong? Are light spirits not as powerful as fire spirits?"
She was still completely clueless about spiritual attributes.
At the port, flames floated in the palm of her statue's hand, but so what?
She is Director Yan.
Can't she master both spirits?
"It was just a bit of a surprise," Xie Sheng said when no one answered.
To be precise, it wasn't just somewhat unexpected, it was extremely unexpected.
Fire Spirit is the symbol of Yanju.
In the Underworld, when people talk about fire-type great mages, the first one that comes to mind is Yan Ju.
Lord of the Blazing Sun.
So Jie Sheng really didn't expect that, besides the fact that the young Yan Ju had never been in contact with spirits before graduating from university, there were other things that were even more unexpected to her.
Yanju's closest spirit is not the fire spirit, but the light spirit.
"Oh." Yan Shi shrugged, walked back to the sofa and sat down, looking at his secretary thoughtfully, "You all seem to know me very little."
Jie Sheng was somewhat embarrassed: "Director Yan, it was my fault."
"So you guys and I aren't actually that close," Yan Shi said casually, resting his chin on his hand. Then he changed the subject: "Do you know Yan Lan?"
Young Yanju was completely powerless and unaware of the situation. For some reason, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Jiesheng's back.
Director Yan is still Director Yan.
Even though young Yanju is vibrant and bright, one can already see glimpses of her future in her.
Jie Sheng lowered his head, no longer daring to secretly observe the young Yan Ju, and respectfully said, "I have heard a little about it."
Yan Shi raised an eyebrow: "Hmm? What kind of person is she?"
It's difficult to summarize.
Jie Sheng paused for a moment, considering his words, and decided to state his position cautiously: "I don't know. I have never met Ms. Yanlan in person, I have only heard about some of the things she has done."
"Tell me about it," Yan Shi said enthusiastically, her eyes sparkling.
She asked her to come and find out what kind of person her sister, whom she had never met, was.
Jie Sheng slowly said, "At the Seiro City branch of the Bureau of Alien Affairs, he took your work card and escaped from prison; at the Will Hub branch of the Bureau of Alien Affairs, he took your work card and took away contraband from the bureau; on his first day at Zhanzhou, he got into a fight with his colleagues and smashed the Zhanzhou floating island."
She paused, then continued, "There are some other incidents that can't be summarized in a single sentence. Or should I compile the reports and send them to you?"
Yan Shi: ...
Yan Shi's expression subtly shifted from calm to shock, deeply moved.
So did she just make a misjudgment about something?
When Lin Cai questioned her earlier, Yan Shi thought her younger sister Yan Lan was a pitiful little thing.
After all, according to Lin Cai, Yan Lan seemed to have suffered a lot of injustice.
But none of the things Jie Sheng mentioned were things that the poor little thing could have done!
Yan Shi realized that he didn't understand this world.
She felt that she had been emotionally deceived.
“That sounds pretty interesting.” Jian Sheng was still waiting with his head down when Yan Shi said expressionlessly, “Send me the summary later.”
After saying that, she crumpled up the clothes that she had just emptied from the bag and were now piled on the sofa and stuffed them back into the plastic bag. She put the broken wooden hairpin and the plastic crown into Yanlan's small wooden box, and then picked up the bag containing the Undead Halberd.
After making sure she had all her things, Yan Shi stood up and asked Asuka, "Could you find me a lounge?"
"Director Yan," Aska said, stepping forward immediately after noticing that Yan Shi was looking at her, bowing slightly and speaking respectfully, "This way please."
The two walked through the long corridor.
The García Governor's Palace covers a vast area. Naturally, there is more than one building within the palace grounds.
The main building has now been converted into offices and meeting rooms for various departments of the Bureau of Foreign Affairs. Aska led Yan Shi downstairs and they walked through the garden.
Vines climbed freely on both sides of the path, wildflowers bloomed in the cracks between the stone bricks, and the air was filled with the scent of dampness and earth.
Finally, they stopped in front of a detached villa right next to the main building.
“This used to be the guest house of Governor Garcia’s residence. It has been cleaned and now has a separate living room, meeting room and kitchen,” Aska explained, opening the door for Yan Shi. “If you need anything else, just ring the bell at the door and we will come right away.”
"Okay." Yan Shi nodded and went inside.
The door closed gently behind her with a dull thud, cutting off all outside vision.
The space fell silent again.
Yan Shi stood in the center of the living room for a few seconds, his gaze sweeping around the room. The furnishings were simple, mainly dark solid wood furniture, a very Western style.
She put everything she was carrying on the ground, her movements so light they were almost silent. Then she turned around and walked to each window, pulling the heavy curtains closed one by one.
After confirming that there was no one else in the room and no surveillance equipment, she walked back to the door, squatted down, and emptied all the clothes out of the plastic bag again.
Even the most meticulously crafted and sturdy clothes become wrinkled after being crumpled several times. Yan Shi smoothed out the wrinkles in the coat with his fingertips and carefully felt inside the lining.
The second phone.
This is also why Yan Shi hurriedly wanted to leave the sight of his subordinates.
While taking out her coat, she unexpectedly discovered a hidden inner pocket, and there was something inside the inner pocket.
Yan didn't take it out immediately, only glancing at it out of the corner of her eye. Because at that moment, everyone in the room was secretly watching her.
Yan Shi's intuition told her not to make a fuss.
Director Yan probably doesn't want others to know about this.
At this moment, Yan Shi sat directly on the ground, his eyes sparkling.
“Two cell phones,” she murmured to herself.
Let her see what secrets she's hiding in her future self!
She turned on the screen.
Yan Shi was taken aback.
A very familiar screensaver.
Wait, isn't this her own phone?!
She tentatively entered the password.
It's unlocked.
The home screen isn't the one Yanshi is currently using. Instead, it's been replaced with a really cool comic book screenshot.
In the video, a woman with black hair and black eyes looks out of the screen with a half-smile.
Yan Shi: ...
Unsure, let me take another look.
The familiar uniform. The familiar hairpin holding her hair up.
She fell silent.
Isn't this herself?
Yanju has a rather unique hobby: commissioning himself to write articles.
At the same time, the time is displayed on the main screen.
It had only been a little over a year since she graduated from university.
"Huh?" Yan Shi asked, looking bewildered.
Unlike her first phone, her old phone was much quieter, without a huge number of missed calls and messages.
There's only one app in the notification bar, and it's been consistently sending messages regularly.
Yan Shi frowned.
Strange comics.
She disliked screens full of red notification dots, so she turned off almost all unnecessary app notifications. But in the future, she actually gave a separate push notification for a comic book tracking app?
That's strange.
Yan Shi swiped down the notification bar and clicked on it.
A prompt box pops up on the screen.
The comic you've been following, "The Curse of the Laws," has been updated! Come check it out!
After a moment, she blinked slowly.
It seems that the workload of the Special Administration Bureau is really not very high.
Even after becoming the bureau chief, she still had time to become hopelessly addicted to comics.
Yan Shi clicked on it speechlessly.
The page automatically redirects, locating the last viewed page based on browsing history.
Then, her pupils suddenly contracted.
The cover of this chapter features a drawing of herself.
She was wearing a shirt that Yan Shi remembered she had just ordered a while ago but which hadn't arrived yet, and she knelt on one knee in front of a magnificent building.
The bright moon shines.
In the comic, the necromancer halberd that Yan Shi had just seen was lying next to her. Her head was bowed, and her shoulders were covered with snow.
Author's Note: The comic's plot picks up where the Summer Palace incident left off.
