Chapter 10
What could be the important matter?
Yun Piancheng had no idea, but still replied to Kofi.
Cheng Yun: Positioning
Kofi responded almost instantly and threw a positioning shot over.
It's a pub near the city center.
Yun Piancheng tidied himself up and dressed. After a moment's hesitation, he put the soundly sleeping Ji Huai into his pocket and took him away.
Although their house was located on the outskirts of the city, Belu itself was not a very large city.
It only takes half an hour to walk from the outskirts of the city to the city center.
The sun was too strong outside, and Yun Piancheng was worried that the high temperature would disturb Ji Huai if he walked for too long, so he took a taxi to where Kefei was.
The air conditioner was on in the car and the temperature was just right. There was no partition raised between the back seat and the driver's seat, which made it easier for the driver and passengers to communicate.
The driver was also very enthusiastic: "Hey, miss, let's go to the bar. I tell you, there's a cocktail called 'Zhi Ge' that tastes pretty good."
"Don't be fooled by the name, it's actually a sweet drink with a low alcohol content. The price is also very affordable, so you should give it a try."
"Okay, thank you for the recommendation." Yun Piancheng adhered to the principle of integrating with everyone and did not let his words fall on the ground.
"You're welcome," the driver replied. As he turned a corner, he suddenly realized something and asked, "Hey, are you that... out-of-town psychologist whose video went viral? What's his name?... Well, I saw the video, and you seem quite capable."
Yun Piancheng didn't know how to respond, so he just politely replied, "Thank you."
"That's a good thing. That's what a psychological counselor should be like. They have both literary and martial skills. Who knows, they might even have a chance to come back after going to the front lines."
"By the way, are you open yet? Do you have any schedules soon? I think my child has been... um... a little depressed lately, and may need some professional guidance."
"How are your children behaving?"
The driver paused, perhaps feeling a little embarrassed, and chose his words carefully before speaking: "It's not a big deal, actually. If you're busy, you can take care of other patients first."
"That's right... this kid has always taken the Marshal as his role model and has always been concerned about news from the front lines and about the Marshal."
"The child was originally very happy, saying that General Yun presided over the signing of the peace treaty. However, a few days later, an obituary arrived, saying that General Yun had died unexpectedly. I was a little shocked..."
"She's almost an adult. My wife and I planned to earn money to send her to another planet, away from conscription, but she's been clamoring to join the army. She insists that General Yun, who's experienced so many wars, couldn't just die in an ambush. She wants to find out the truth and take vengeance on General Yun. If we don't let her go, she'll go with General Yun!"
"It's not that joining the army is necessarily a bad thing. It's good for a child to have a passionate heart, and it's also good to have a good role model. But she doesn't know anything about martial arts, she's powerless. How would she survive if she really joined? What do you think I should do?"
The driver sighed heavily.
Yun Piancheng: ...
She lowered her eyes. Their plan of faking death and catching the traitor had indeed affected the normal lives of ordinary people.
Ji Huai in his pocket smelled the aroma of food coming from Yun Piancheng's negative emotions, smacked his lips in his sleep, and slowly ate.
Delicious! He turned over.
"Here's my contact information. You can come and make an appointment with me. The address is at the original Er'er Clinic."
Yun Piancheng felt a little relieved and left his contact information through the online ride-hailing platform.
"Wow, Miss Hessel's clinic will actually be reopened someday."
The vehicle slowed down and gradually pulled over to the side of the road in front of the pub.
"Hey, we're here now. I wanted to talk more. I finally got a new psychologist. But thank you so much, Miss Cheng. My wife and I will make an appointment to bring the children to see you later." The driver said regretfully.
"Okay, thank you for your trust." Yun Piancheng got out of the car and closed the door.
She stood at the door of the tavern and looked up at the sign on the tavern's facade.
Well... this pub is just called Pub, what a simple name.
No wonder the location Coffey sent her didn't include the specific name of the pub.
“Here, here!”
Kofi had sharp eyes and spotted the figure standing at the door at a glance. He hurried from his seat to the door and greeted Yun Piancheng.
Yun Piancheng nodded at her.
"Finally you're here! I've been waiting for you for so long!"
Kefei walked over and put his arm around Yun Piancheng. Suddenly, he remembered something and looked her up and down. He asked, "Where's the robot on your shoulder? You didn't bring it today?"
"In my pocket." Yun Piancheng said.
Kofi nodded in approval: "That makes sense, the character is still there."
Yun Piancheng:?
What are you talking about? What kind of character is this?
She smoothed her semi-long hair and followed Coffey into the tavern.
Kofi let go of Yun Piancheng, walked straight to the window seat, picked up his small bag, and went to the front desk to say something.
When she came back, she directly pulled Yun Piancheng behind the bar.
The pub doesn't look big from the outside. There are not many tables and chairs scattered outside, and there are no customers. The bartender is wiping the glasses at the bar.
But beyond the bar, there is a long corridor hidden behind it, with many doors on both sides of the corridor corresponding to the private rooms.
Yun Piancheng followed Kofi all the way to the end of the corridor and entered the box on the right side at the end of the corridor.
The air conditioning in the box was turned on very high, making Ji Huai in Yun Piancheng's pocket very noticeable, warm like a little hot pack.
There is a table in the box with four chairs around it, and there is even a monitor on the side where you can play something.
Coffey plopped down on the chair and began swiping the virtual screen on the table, apparently choosing a drink.
Seeing that Yun Piancheng hadn't moved and was still standing at the door, she waved at Yun Piancheng and urged him, "Come on, sister, get something to drink, and then we can talk. Otherwise, it's too dry to just talk."
Yun Piancheng frowned. This didn't seem like anything important. Instead, it reminded her of the past when she was in the army. At a celebration banquet after a battle, the soldiers were not allowed to drink alcohol, so they just drank some sparkling water in groups of three or four, and gathered together to brag, gossip, and chat, and then miss home.
But since he was already there, Yun Piancheng walked forward and sat down opposite Kofi.
Perhaps there were sensors embedded in the chair. As soon as she sat down, the sensors felt the pressure and a virtual screen popped up on the table, with the menu on it.
She has never had the habit of drinking.
In the past, it was because she was too young and minors were not allowed to drink alcohol. Later, she stayed in the army for many years, and it was military discipline not to drink alcohol in the army. As a marshal, she absolutely needed to set an example.
So she didn't even know how much she could drink.
Want to try it? Yun Piancheng thought.
She swiped her fingers across the menu, scrolled to the bottom, and ordered a glass of sparkling water.
Forget it.
The drinks were quickly brought over by the little robot, including her sparkling water, which was colorful like a small rainbow. There was also a small pendant hanging on the wall of the glass, which was in the style of an old-fashioned wooden beer glass.
After everything was put in place, the little robot slipped out of the box. Coffey operated a few times on the virtual screen and locked the door.
"This pub is also our family business," Coffey introduced.
Yun Piancheng nodded.
Kofi didn't waste any more time talking and got straight to the point: "Have you ever received a message that disappears after reading?"
Yun Piancheng's heart sank.
Sure enough, something went wrong, and the worst possibility was that she was exposed.
"It's because the video from the alley went viral."
"What kind of romantic debt did you get yourself into out there? You asked me to keep an eye on you and take good care of you..."
Two voices sounded at the same time.
Yun Piancheng:?
What are you talking about?
Hearing Yun Piancheng say this, Kefei immediately realized that Yun Piancheng also received it, and then continued to ask: "What did you receive? Did you say anything?"
"There's only a screenshot." Yun Piancheng's tone didn't reveal any emotion, but his right hand, which was in his pocket, was rubbing the gun callus on his knuckles.
If her identity is exposed or she is suspected, should she just run away or kill to silence the witness?
She should still be in the suspicion stage now, otherwise the traitor would have brought people to kill her without even saying hello.
If she really did this, she would appear guilty and would directly confirm her suspected identity.
So she took her hand out of her pocket, held up the sparkling water in front of her, took a sip, and asked, "What did you receive?"
As she moved, the beer cup pendant on the cup gently hit the glass wall, making a crisp sound.
"Here, look."
Kofi was not sure whether the screenshot of this interface would be captured, so he just called out the virtual screen, rotated the virtual screen, and showed the chat interface to Yun Piancheng.
X: [Picture]
[X: Hello, Mr. Leighton Owen, ruler of Bellew City. On behalf of the Alliance, I request that you cooperate with our mission and write a document to truthfully report the activities of important individuals on the map at 8:00 PM every Sunday. Do not disclose this to the individuals themselves.]
Worried that Yun Piancheng wouldn't understand, Kofi kindly explained, "This Leighton is my dad, the mayor of Belu City. He doesn't care about anything, so he just throws everything at me."
"Damn it, this isn't my ambition at all. I just want to sit back and do nothing like a rich second-generation idiot!"
X.
If the same ID does not appear within the alliance, this X represents Meng Xun.
The content of this message, which did not use any special technology, was to some extent highly consistent with the one Yun Piancheng received.
But why did Meng Xun do this?
Is he trying to convey something with this message?
Did he want to tell me that he was being controlled by someone and asked me not to contact him?
Or maybe they want to use their own reactions to determine whether they are the person in the picture.
If this is true, does Meng Xun want to ruin the plan?
Is he a mole?
impossible.
Yun Piancheng denied this idea immediately.
Putting aside how clean Meng Xun's family background was, he was recommended to the army by the person in charge, and he had been her adjutant for such a long time. She knew his character and life goals better than anyone else.
If Kofi's goal is to be a lazy rich second-generation, then Meng Xun can definitely sit at the same table with her.
etc.
Yun Piancheng realized that this wasn't the special message that disappeared after reading, so she asked, "What was written on that disappeared message?"
Speaking of this, Kofi became interested.
"It says take care of her! This isn't necessarily your fiancé showing up!"
"Well? Am I right? The little princess of the Capital Star boss's family ran away because she hated the political marriage!"
Yun Piancheng: ...
Yun Piancheng:?
What are you mumbling about?
