Yin stared into his eyes for a while, then smiled with satisfaction, putting a hand on his shoulder. "Have you forgotten what I told you? The past doesn't matter; what matters is the present and the future."
Mr. Lin nodded again. "I understand, sir."
Yin watched him go downstairs.
After a while, the man next to him asked, "Sir, were you testing him just now?"
"Old Lin used to speak to me so politely. It seems the results are quite good. You can inform Xin Ning about that matter now," Yin said casually, rubbing his fingers.
Lin Xi lay on the lawn, slowly absorbing a mid-level crystal core in her hand.
However, she discovered that absorbing more mid-level crystal cores didn't seem to have much effect on upgrading her abilities.
Once the crystal nucleus has been absorbed, it will become dull and lifeless.
She held a piece of paper in her hand, but her thoughts were wandering far away.
Being stuck here isn't a good thing either; there are many things we can't do, and now Yin isn't letting any of them get close to her father, which is also very strange.
And it's really boring.
Before, I could go around fighting monsters with my older sister and younger sister, and there were also fights to be had in the military region.
But ever since she knocked Yi Song unconscious, people here have been avoiding her, treating her like a living devil.
Actually, there are quite a few activities here. Just five meters away from her, a group of people are currently sparring with one another.
It's just that Lin Xi was removed from the list.
She was already considering leaving, since the information she got from Yi Song only confirmed the fact that Lin Wang was dead.
There was no point in staying here any longer.
But just then, Dad came out.
Then I shouldn't have left at this time.
"Good!" Lin Xi was startled by the voice, and sparse applause followed.
Why are you all so excited to watch a fight?
They're a bunch of noobs; I wouldn't even want to play with them.
Lin Xi frowned and turned over.
I don't know when she will be able to get in touch with her father.
A week has passed, and Yin still hasn't let Lin's father out to move around freely; he remains under strict surveillance.
Just as Lin Xi was anxiously jumping up and down, something even more frightening happened.
She met Xin Ning, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, and... Xie Erge.
Logically speaking, it was understandable that they, as Yin's subordinates, came to the small villa to report on their work.
But this time, a large group of people followed behind them.
Lin Xi felt a chill run down her spine.
Because the group of people following behind them were her very familiar companions.
What are they doing here?
It was already outrageous enough that they openly entered the military district before, but now they've gone straight into Yin's villa.
The experts here are probably beyond their ability to handle.
You're really causing her trouble!
No, I need to talk to Chen Jin about this later.
Second floor.
Yin closed his laptop and looked at the row of people standing in front of him.
With her hands crossed and chin resting on her hand, a faint smile appeared on her face. "Yun, I didn't expect that after all this time, I would still win."
Xin Ning was a little distracted.
Yin immediately noticed this and praised her again, "Xin Ning, you did a good job this time."
"Of course, Xie Er also played a crucial role in making this happen." Yin didn't forget another contributor, "Old Lin's condition has stabilized a lot. You two can move in next week. The military region can be left for the newcomers to make their mark."
The man next to him understood and immediately went down to arrange a room for them.
After Xin Ning was out of Yin's sight, she became much more relaxed, crossing her arms and following the crowd at a leisurely pace.
Xie Erge turned to look at her and said, "Congratulations, you've gotten what you wanted."
"What? Don't you want to move in?" Xin Ning smiled slightly in response.
“Actually, it wasn’t so bad that I was leading the Third Team in the military region. We’d lived together for so long, we had some feelings for each other.” After saying that, Xie Erge deliberately turned the conversation to Xin Ning, “What about you? You don’t have any feelings for the First Team?”
"Xie Er, your emotions are running too far. Our relationship is just that of superior and subordinate. Do you have to make it sound so perfect? There's no need for that."
Xie Erge paused in his steps. Was that really what she was thinking?
Is she overly rational, or overly cold-hearted?
Even if you raise a dog, you'll develop feelings for it after a year, right?
She usually puts on a gentle and kind facade, but I never expected her to be so ruthless behind the scenes.
"Fine, whatever you want. Arranging the follow-up work is a very annoying task." Brother Xie continued to walk quickly to the front of the crowd.
Lin Xi waited outside, and as soon as Xie Erge came out, she pulled her aside to ask what was going on.
Or you could just ask Chen Jin directly.
That would be for the best, since even Brother Xie might not be aware of some of the Wind Eagle Gang's plans.
After waiting for a long time, Xie Erge and Xin Ning were escorted out by two superhumans, and Lin Xi could only watch helplessly.
Only after they had gone far away did she realize something was wrong.
What about them?
They didn't go out!
what happened?
Is he under house arrest?
Upon realizing this possibility, Lin Xi immediately returned to the basement level to check.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped as soon as he entered. "Third brother, what are you doing?"
Lin Xi looked up, and it was him again!
Lin Xi still doesn't know his name, so she just calls him "brother" like everyone else does. She said with a wry smile, "Nobody outside plays with me. It's so boring. I want to go back to sleep."
"They don't want to spar with you because you don't know your own strength. You're not allowed to go back for the time being, so go practice outside by yourself."
Lin Xi could only nod and give up.
She could only stand in a corner outside the small villa, close her eyes, and listen carefully to see if there was any movement inside.
Fortunately, there were no strange noises.
Remembering what Chen Jin had told her before, she frowned. Could it be that they really went in to negotiate with Yin?
Now that they're here, surely they wouldn't be so foolish as to be completely unprepared, right?
And even if Yin really did attack them, there's no way the bodies would still be left in the house.
The fact that no one brought out the body means they are still alive.
Besides, Yin should at least show him some leniency, considering they were colleagues.
Thinking of this, Lin Xi felt a little relieved.
When Lin Xi returned to the basement at noon, she found two rooms open, and Yi Song happened to be back as well.
"Brother Song, who's staying in these two rooms? I don't think I've ever seen them before?"
"If you've seen them, then something's fishy. There's never been anyone in those two rooms." Yi Song shrugged, turned the doorknob, and went inside.
Lin Xi looked at the two doors with some confusion. If no one was there, why were they open again today?
