Liuyin City, lakeside villa.
The early morning sun shone through the gaps in the curtains. The clock on the wall had already reached time to get up, but Chu Zehuai didn't want to get up. He simply turned over, lay on the bed and looked at his phone. By the way, he logged into the executive page to see the current situation of the Four Continents.
"Because there are more and more awakened people in Nanzhou, a new religion has arisen. The old and new religions have started a brutal struggle. SA and K are very busy. SA was even accidentally injured and sent to the hospital. Tsk, luckily religion is not popular in Dongzhou."
"Alos went after the rebellious Orville, and they both died in the Frost Sea. Hiss, Beizhou lost two executive officers in one fell swoop."
"Northern Continent is now divided into three parts. One third belongs to the original governor, one third is taken over by the ambitious executive, and the remaining one third is ruled by an organization called 'Paradise'. Hey, Bai Yu, why does the person in charge of this 'Paradise' look so similar to the person who appeared in your office that day?"
As Chu Zehuai was rowing, he saw a familiar young man with blond hair and green eyes.
"It's Xiang Yang. He only went back to Liuyin City briefly last time, but he has returned now. We have indeed planned a large area in Beizhou."
The vines on the ceiling slowly woke up and climbed down, condensing into a human shape next to Chu Zehuai, then leaned over and kissed the red mark on his neck.
"Don't worry about the affairs of other continents, just take care of East Continent."
Chu Zehuai nodded: "That's right, let me see what the current situation is in Dongzhou."
...
...
As more and more people awaken and the Dongzhou Research Institute develops potions to restore deformed people and promote the awakening of ordinary people, the situation in Dongzhou has changed dramatically.
The pollutants that were rampant at the beginning are no longer a threat. The main contradiction in Dongzhou has changed from the contradiction between humans and pollutants to the contradiction between awakened people and awakened people.
Accidentally hitting others because of not being able to control their extra abilities, the comparison and jealousy caused by different levels of awakening abilities, the fake and inferior awakening level-enhancing potions on the market, the awakeners' remedial classes in the sewers, using awakening abilities to smuggle or get involved in gangs...
Even the Qinghe City Investigation Bureau, which was supposed to be hunting down pollutants, has now sent a lot of people to help the Supervisory Council.
"Lin Mo sent me a video of my aunt hearing a case in the Supervisory Commission. As soon as the defendant came in, he knelt down to my aunt and shouted, 'Your Majesty, I am innocent.' Everyone present couldn't hold back."
"Yuan Xue uncovered an underground cram school for awakeners. A group of parents surrounded her and wouldn't let her leave, but she still managed to capture all the teachers with great difficulty. It seems that she has improved a lot compared to a year ago."
"There are more and more awakened people. There is no need for the Yeyu Dongzhou Awakener Organization to exist. So I simply disbanded the organization and joined the Qinghe City Investigation Bureau with Yeyun. I said it was to atone for everything Yeyun did in the Glorious Organization."
As Chu Zehuai was watching, he felt a pair of cold hands touching his face, and his head was forced to turn away from the phone.
"I asked you to think about Dongzhou, not Qinghe City, but about us."
Bai Yu looked at Chu Zehuai who was still a little confused and said helplessly.
"What do we need here? Do you need me to go to the Liuyin City Investigation Bureau?"
Chu Zehuai blinked. Could there be any plant residents who dared to cause trouble under the nose of top-level pollutants?
He also hadn't heard of any major events happening in Liuyin City.
"Don't think about work all the time during the day. I'm talking about our personal matters."
Bai Yu leaned forward and kissed the other's cheek, his light green eyes curved.
"It's almost May, aren't you planning on getting married?"
**
In Liuyin City, in a prison converted from an underground mine.
"I thought you had forgotten me after so long."
Shen An sat cross-legged on the ground, with three pairs of eyes open on his face, smiling at Shen Rong who was walking down.
"I was just wondering, why aren't you leaving?"
After Shen Rong confirmed again and again that she had not locked the spider spirit's room, she stared at the other party with a pair of glass-colored eyes.
He had never thought of letting Shen An stay in Liuyin City.
The other party's abilities and talents far exceed his, his personality is unpredictable and his intentions are unknown. No one knows what this guy is thinking.
It’s better to throw such people back to Dongting instead of causing trouble in Liuyin City.
"As the executive officer of the Dongzhou region, I have to observe the living conditions of the residents of Liuyin City. This is my duty."
Shen An blinked three pairs of eyes, revealing an innocent look.
"You're just going to sit here and observe?"
Shen Rong raised his eyebrows. He seriously suspected that Shen An was actually looking for a legitimate reason to come here for vacation.
"Don't forget, the Shen family's bloodline has the ability to detect. My talent for prophecy and detection are the same."
Shen An touched his chin, looked at Shen Rong's face which had become somewhat ugly, and suddenly laughed.
"Xiao Rong, I have to admit that the people in Liuyin City live better than I thought. You win."
Shen Rong, who thought Shen An was going to unconsciously display his Versailles talent again, was stunned.
Although he had always been envious and not jealous of his brother's outstanding talents and abilities since he was a child, and had never had any despicable thoughts about Shen An, he could not help but seek recognition from his family and outsiders in his heart.
It’s a pity that with such a great example before him, everyone’s eyes were on Shen An. He wanted to defeat his brother and use hard work to overcome talent, but unfortunately he failed. After failing again and again, he finally gave up.
Unexpectedly, many years later, he, who had long since let go of the resentment he felt in his youth, was caught off guard by the words he wanted to hear most before.
"It's too late. I don't need your approval anymore."
Chen Rong lowered her eyelashes, hiding the expression in her eyes.
"If you have nothing to do, leave now. Are all executive officers so idle?"
"I just said that this is also part of the job."
Shen An opened the eyes that had recovered on his forehead, and his silver pupils kept moving.
"You really want to hear it, so don't say one thing and mean another."
Shen Rong's glass-like eyes suddenly widened, and the hands hanging beside him couldn't help but clenched: "You used 'Detection' on me?"
"It's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I want to know what you think."
There was a hint of smile in the silver eyes on Shen An's forehead.
"I definitely didn't look at other things. For example, when you made that shocking prophecy, you wanted to sacrifice the second half of your life, but you slipped up and said lower.body, which is why it became half an octopus—"
"Shen, An!"
Shen Rong's anger level reached its peak.
"Don't be so angry. I really think your predictions are excellent. At least I wouldn't have the courage to do that unless it was absolutely necessary. I'm your brother, you can't hit me."
Half an hour later
"You'll be given 24 hours to leave here. Don't let me see you in Liuyin City the next night."
Chen Rong stretched out a tentacle, grabbed the spider spirit brother and threw him out of the underground mine, gritting his teeth.
"If you do this, aren't you afraid that I will publicize your dark history when I get home?"
Shen An's four pairs of eyes were still adapting to the dazzling sunlight that they had not seen for a long time, but their mouths had already begun to output to Shen Rong. After seeing his brother who froze after hearing the words, the corners of his lips could not help but rise.
"I was just kidding. Don't be so scared."
"Get out of here quickly, I'm afraid I can't help but leave you here forever."
Shen Rong gritted his teeth, and the octopus tentacles stretched out from under his robe, ready to move.
The beating just now was not light enough. He should have been beaten for an hour.
"Well, by the way, Xiao Rong, come home when you have time. Your family misses you very much."
Seeing that he had really pissed people off, Shen An coughed twice and returned to his usual serious demeanor.
Faced with the sudden change of words, Shen Rong was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he whispered:
"....knew."
He thought that because he had done such a thing, his family had already cut ties with him.
That’s right, grandpa is the strongest prophet in Dongzhou, he must be able to predict some truths. It should be that the old man took on the pressure and saved Liuyin City when all the residents were asleep.
My grandparents, mom and dad, and my brother who would be even better if he didn't have a mouth, are all waiting for me to go home, so I might as well go back and visit them when I have time.
However, before Shen Rong could be moved for a few seconds, Shen An, who had not walked far, turned his head and said, “I forgot to say that your pink tentacles match your heart quite well. Come on, pink brother.”
"I changed my mind, Shen An, stop right there—"
Half an hour later, the disheveled Chen An was walking on the street, attracting a lot of attention from the plant residents.
“It’s a little better than I thought.”
As Shen An passed by a shopping mall mirror, he adjusted his clothes and talked to himself.
Although both of them are powerless prophets, he was beaten by Chu Zehuai when he was an executive in Dongzhou, and his body has developed resistance. Compared with that bird, Shen Rong's attack is just like playing house.
Just think of it as a tentacle massage. I have to say, it feels pretty good and quite bouncy.
There was no need to tell Shen Rong about these, as he was afraid that his brother would hit someone again.
Speaking of Chu Zehuai, he should have settled down in Liuyin City. While I can still move around in Liuyin City, I might as well go and see the bird.
After packing his clothes, Chen An walked towards the address he had found, and ran into Chu Zehuai who was carrying things home.
"Are you...becoming a househusband?"
Shen An glanced at the things in the other person's hand that were obviously just bought from the supermarket and raised his eyebrows.
"No, I just want to make some delicious food for Bai Yu."
Zhiwu has been busy with wedding preparations these days. Even though he said there was no rush, she still gave up all her rest time and put a lot of energy into it. After all the preparations were completed, she finally rested in the sun at home.
He wanted to buy some of Bai Yu's favorite food while he was sleeping to give him a surprise.
"I see. I didn't expect you to get married so soon. Don't forget to send me an invitation when the time comes."
Chen An recalled Chu Zehuai's cold look as if he was destined to be alone in the Four Continents Alliance. Then he looked at the happy look of him now having a beautiful family, and for a moment he felt as if he were in another world.
"Okay, now that we're at the doorstep, come in and sit for a while. You can also help me with my work."
Chu Zehuai pointed to the lakeside villa not far away.
Shen An hummed, and walked into the garden in front with the other party.
“This white swing is nice.”
Chen An circled the trellis and the swing inside it twice, and even reached out to poke the agate butterfly on the metal frame.
"My boyfriend likes to play, so I made one myself."
Chu Zehuai thought of Bai Yu who always liked to climb on top, and his eyes softened.
“The exterior color looks good and fresh.”
Chen An looked at the various decorations on the outer wall again and could barely make out the silver rose pattern on the green wall.
"My boyfriend likes this color, so I painted it myself."
Chu Zehuai said, with some pride in his tone.
"Hey, this green roof is really well done. It looks like a green ocean from a distance. The plants on it are full of vitality and it is pleasing to the eye."
Shen An was amazed at everything he saw, but this time he didn't get the response he imagined. He turned his head to look at Chu Zehuai's strange expression and asked,
"Is this because your boyfriend likes to see it, so you planted it yourself?"
".....No, this is my boyfriend basking in the sun."
"......"
