Yan Jiu looked up.
The guy who spoke was arrogant and used the pretense of doing it for her and for the safety of all humanity to disgust people.
The atmosphere suddenly froze.
Anna quickly stepped in to mediate: "Don't get agitated, I think Consultant Yan knows the seriousness of the situation..."
She was about to try to persuade him again.
A playing card struck her like lightning.
The sharp playing card cut through Anna's slightly curled bangs, ultimately embedding itself three inches into the wall.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
The Chief Executive of District 17 was attacked, and countless supporters raised their guns, aiming them at Yan Jiu.
They were just waiting for Anna's command.
Anna shouted, "Put it down!"
Her eyes were filled with lingering fear; she strongly suspected that the cards were initially aimed at her neck.
It was just an ordinary playing card, yet it made her feel a sense of urgency and threat.
There was a mistake.
Everything is wrong.
Yan Jiu didn't become so powerful because of magical artifacts. Even without magical artifacts or treasures, Yan Jiu could have dealt with them effortlessly. They wouldn't even have been able to leave their last words. She should have realized this when Yan Jiu razed District 17 to the ground.
The district leaders were unaware of the problem; they collectively opposed Anna and were unwilling to lay down their guns.
"Yan Jiu attacked a key figure in the Security Bureau; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to execute him on the spot!"
"She's all alone, there's no need to be afraid of her."
"Now we have even more reason to detain her."
"A magical artifact is dangerous in her hands!"
Listen to what the people around you are saying.
Anna was trembling with anger.
A bunch of idiots.
She was indeed wary of Yan Jiu, but she was also protecting District 17. With only a dozen or so people present, they wouldn't be enough to fend off Yan Jiu. Was she just going to throw her gun at him and ask to die?
Anna was about to give the order.
A crisp slapping sound suddenly rang out.
"You slapped me? William, have you been disliking the people in our division for a long time?"
"Hiss, you guys still dare to fight?!"
"What's wrong? I can't control my hands!"
"It's her, it must be Yan Jiu!"
The roundtable meeting was in complete chaos.
Both the person who was beaten and the person who did the beating were stunned.
Anna felt as if she were standing on the edge of an abyss.
Watching Yan Jiu leisurely idly turning his phone, she felt that the other party didn't take District 17 or the Security Bureau seriously at all, which was why he let them hop around like grasshoppers in autumn.
The Noah's Ark incident began to make Anna doubt herself, wondering if it was a mistake to let Yan Jiu walk the path of ruthlessness.
If Lang Zongyi were still alive.
Will Yan Jiu use William on Noah's Ark?
If Lang Zongyi were still alive.
Would we have reached this chaotic situation today?
Anna knew this wasn't the time to think, so she straightened up and bowed to Yan Jiu.
Anna's tone was full of apology: "Please forgive us, we meant no harm."
Yan Jiu did not speak.
Anna lowered her head: "I will manage the Security Bureau well and will never let today's behavior happen again."
She deeply realized her mistake.
Because of her misjudgment, they lost the opportunity to unite with Yan Jiu, and the indirect harm caused to Lang Zongyi will surely become a thorn deeply embedded between them.
Anna brought up an even greater enemy: "Please believe me, our common enemy is the Rosicrucians!"
The International Security Bureau had been peaceful all along. Even when they forced Yan Jiu to hand over the magical artifact, Yan Jiu did not go on a killing spree, which means that Yan Jiu was unaware of what they had done.
Before Yan Jiu discovers it, they want to shift all the blame onto the Rose Cross.
Anna spoke at length, trying to persuade her.
When I looked up again.
Yan Jiu has disappeared without a trace.
No one knew when Yan Jiu would leave, and they finally felt fear at her ability to come and go as she pleased.
"How did she leave?!"
"It's unbelievable! She's been acting all nonchalant these past two days, letting us control her as we please."
"Where's Maya?! What did Maya discover?!"
"Stop talking nonsense and figure out a way to break the curse for us. I don't want to keep slapping people!"
A white-haired, white-clad Mayan mind reader appeared, her forehead covered in cold sweat: "In the eyes of the Variable, we are nothing but ants; she can kill us with ease."
These words were spoken.
The air was deathly silent.
A moment later.
Two or three people offered weak rebuttals.
"Then why doesn't she kill us? It's because she can't. She doesn't want to boost others' morale and diminish her own."
"Exactly, I doubt she'd dare lay a hand on us!"
"If the variable is uncontrollable, then we must make her controllable. What does Commander Anna think?"
Anna slumped back into her chair.
The second meeting between the two was unpleasant, and they even offended someone.
Captain William stepped forward: "Sir, in criminology, she is an extremely dangerous person."
Anna pursed her lips and said, "I need to go back to my family."
The International Security Bureau is not a private entity. Its chief executive officer is rotated among various countries every five years, while the James family has always been recognized as the chief representative of exorcists with an iron fist.
Anna remembers her father telling her that those who achieve great things should not be bound by emotions.
That's why she was so ruthless towards Lang Zongyi, which caused her to lose her friendship with Yan Jiu.
Not long after.
Before Anna teleported away, she was knocked down by a blast of air. She looked back in horror at the devastated District 17.
·
A peaceful day, then Ward 17 exploded again.
Yan Jiu, the culprit, walked slowly into the sunlight amidst the screams of District 17.
Simmore was holding an umbrella.
Yan Jiu was seen approaching.
Simmore was shocked by the horrific scene in District 17, then suppressed his fear of Yan Jiu's cruel methods.
