In the pavilion.
Bai Ye stayed here, breathing the fresh air and basking in the sun, and didn't go home until dinner time.
In the afternoon, he stayed in his room and browsed his phone. His day was fulfilling but a little boring.
When he was free, he played hide-and-seek with his younger brother and sister at home. This time it was not a life-or-death gamble, but just normal hide-and-seek.
His sister even performed the art of losing her head for him, and was seen by his mother who gave her a good scolding.
It was 4:30 in the afternoon and Bai Ye took the big yellow dog out.
On the way, he sent a message in the group.
[We'll meet at a different location today, the small pavilion on the east side of the square.]
In the streets and alleys, townspeople with the same expression can be seen everywhere. Their faces have completely merged with the masks, and there is no flaw to be seen.
A weird smile, so fake.
Walking on the street, the pendant on my chest kept emitting a slight heat, indicating that pollution is everywhere.
At five o'clock, he arrived at his destination.
Secretary No. 1 was already waiting, accompanied by Secretary No. 2.
Seeing him coming, Secretary No. 2 glanced at Secretary No. 1 beside him suspiciously and muttered quietly, "He's on the mayor's blacklist. Are you here to see him?"
Secretary No. 1 didn't say anything. He looked at Bai Ye who was walking towards him and nodded to him.
Secretary No. 2 had a bad feeling in her heart, so she took a few steps back and hid behind Secretary No. 1.
Bai Ye sat down on the bench.
"Wait a minute."
Secretary No. 1 patted Secretary No. 2's hand, walked forward and looked at Bai Ye sincerely.
"Can I ask what you want to do?"
Bai Ye noticed the strange atmosphere between the two secretaries and felt as if he had discovered something interesting.
He did not hide his idea of giving Secretary No. 2 a class reunion trip as a gift.
Secretary No. 1 looked embarrassed. He hesitated for several minutes and then sighed heavily.
"If you're trying to keep it secret or if you're worried about her ruining your plans, there's no need to worry. She's mine."
The implication was that he wanted Bai Ye to show mercy.
Bai Ye pondered for a while, his fingertips tapping on the bench, making a tapping sound. Secretary No. 1's face was full of anticipation and nervousness.
Finally, he heard the answer he wanted to hear.
"Okay, but you have to keep an eye on her. Otherwise, even if I don't take action, my companions won't let her go."
Secretary No. 1 immediately breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Bai Ye with gratitude.
"Thanks."
Bai Ye: “…” Why are you thanking him?
At this point, even if Secretary No. 2 was dumb, she knew her beloved had betrayed the mayor. A hundred thousand whys flashed through her mind.
She had only one thought in her mind at this moment, either run away or it would be over if the mayor came back.
Afterwards, Bai Ye asked him about the mayor's plans and the situation of the inspection team tomorrow.
After some communication, he learned some secrets of the town and what happened in the past.
If the previous mayor loved money like his life, this mayor is one who will do anything to pursue power. He bought the smiling mask from an evil organization using the previous mayor's savings.
This also involves some powerful beings in the world of ghost stories, which is not convenient to talk about.
If the inspection team passes the assessment tomorrow, the mayor can move to a larger place for development.
In Tan Wu's hands, there is some evidence that the mayor uses forbidden objects.
If the mayor's mask is to be exposed, Tan Wu's evidence alone is not enough. It would be best if the town's native residents came forward to identify him.
Bai Ye discussed with Secretary No. 1 for a while, and the other selected candidates also came to the square.
Secretary No. 1 had no good feelings towards these chosen ones, and disappeared into black smoke with Secretary No. 2.
At this time, Lin Ye and his companions came to the pavilion.
Lin Ye looked around and asked, "Where is the person from before?"
Bai Ye then told several people the information he had obtained.
There is no need to worry about the evidence in Tan Wu's hands, but it is a bit troublesome to get these townspeople to come forward and identify the mayor themselves.
At this time, Alan, who was standing behind, came out.
"I can convince five townspeople, including the mayor's wife."
Hearing this, everyone looked at him.
Ian also looked at him curiously. Could it be that this guy had the same talent as him, which was to brainwash weird people?
Alan smiled.
"They are all my confidantes. If this number is not enough, I can try harder tonight and convince two more."
Everyone: “…”
Bai Ye was quite curious about his talent, but did not ask.
He looked at Ian.
"Ian, can your believers listen to you?"
Ian shook his head uncertainly. "It's hard to say. They're wearing masks now, but the two that have been completely purified are fine."
"Okay, that's enough." Bai Ye nodded.
He looked at Park Seoul again, who seemed to be in a bad state today.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"It's okay. Since you've taken a leave, I'll just do my own work. I'm a little uncomfortable with it." Park Seoul said, shaking his hands.
Bai Ye let out a sound.
"By the way, you still have one chance to use your talent, right?"
A light flashed in Park Seoul's eyes and he nodded continuously.
Ah, is he finally going to be useful?
Park Seoul was very excited. He was afraid that he would not be able to play his role and would be kicked out of the group chat.
Bai Ye discussed with a few people, and finally it was time for Ian to recite the scriptures.
Today, Ian read for an hour.
At half past six, everyone dispersed.
Bai Ye was walking on the road and as expected, he saw the homeless man Tan Wu standing under a big tree.
