After Chi Shen finished speaking, no one responded and everyone fell silent.
The atmosphere in the office was visibly solemn at the moment. After all, there was the ghostly aura lingering around everyone. Even if everyone was laughing, the atmosphere looked solemn. What's more, everyone hadn't laughed yet. The expressions on their faces were either serious or terrified, which made it seem even heavier.
Many people looked at Li Shuan. After all, he was the most influential person here. Chi Shen had already directly insulted him, so the head of the Li family should at least show some appreciation, right?
Li Shuan was also thinking. He stared at Chi Shen, as if he was thinking about something strange. Even his expression became strange.
Despite this, he did not ask questions right away, and even looked back at other people. Seeing their gazes, he fell into thought again.
They seemed to be frozen, and no one spoke for a moment.
At this time, Chi Shen suddenly laughed, and that laughter even had a bit of sunshine and cheerfulness: "You seem to need some time to discuss. It's okay. I will give you one night to prepare, or in other words, give you one night for your family members to find a way to rescue you."
As Chi Shen tried so hard to communicate in a friendly manner, the faces of the people in the office became even uglier and the atmosphere became more depressing.
Gui Lian was lying outside the window at the moment, secretly sticking his head to look inside. When he heard Chi Shen say that he was coming to the Special Security Bureau to do something big, he felt uneasy. As a ghost, he had always been in awe of places like the Special Security Bureau. He had finally sent the red-clothed female ghost away and got out of the Special Security Bureau, and he didn't want to go back very much, but he was curious about what big thing Chi Shen was here to do, so he followed him anyway.
However, before entering the door, Chi Shen handed him a bag of convenience store sandwiches and asked him to help throw away the trash. He thought Chi Shen would wait for him, but when he came back, he saw this scene.
At this moment, he folded a corner of his face outside the window, pretending to be thinking with his chin in his hand: "Why does it feel like Chi Shen's smile is getting brighter and brighter? Can this also be advanced? Or does the more cruel the things you do, the healthier your smile will be?"
Thinking of this, he became anxious again: "But what big thing is Chi Shen doing? Doesn't he want to stay in the human world? Although I don't have any objections, but... doesn't he want to be an ordinary worker?"
"You have to know that even if we acknowledge you as the clan leader, even if you get the clan leader's token, you will not be the clan leader of our family in the true sense. The token is useless as long as we don't acknowledge it."
At this time, a man who had been silent spoke. He was nearly fifty years old, with kind eyes and brows, and had met Chi Shen several times.
Chi Shen looked at him with a smile: "So, I think your family doesn't want to lose their core members for a token that can be unrecognized."
After this was said, the office fell silent again.
"It's okay. I said I'd give you one night, so that's one night. You can slowly think about it...think about how to convince your clan leader."
After saying that, Chi Shen leaned back in his chair, supporting his face with one hand, and rested in a lazy posture.
Ji Xingchen turned into a black shadow and wrapped around him. With his actions, he was telling everyone in the room that even if Chi Shen fell asleep, they would not be able to hurt Chi Shen again.
Chi Shen's expression of "I'll give you time to perform" made everyone else hesitate for a while. After about ten minutes, someone looked at Chi Shen and said, "Let me make a call."
Chi Shen opened his eyes slightly and said lazily, "Please go ahead."
When one person took action, the others also took action. They began to contact the outside world to explain the situation and discuss countermeasures. Some of them were directed at Chi Shen, or in other words, they were discussing in a tactful way how to kill Chi Shen and get them out directly. After all, Chi Shen was at the scene, and if he made it too clear, they were afraid that they would die on the spot.
However, everyone soon discovered that no matter how they discussed not handing over the token, how they discussed how to run away, or how to kill Chi Shen, Chi Shen had no reaction at all. He just sat leaning back in the chair, with his eyes closed, his expression gentle, and he looked like he was completely asleep.
So their discussion voices gradually became louder, or more unscrupulous. At the beginning, they would still be considerate of Chi Shen, saying a few words and looking at Chi Shen, but later they completely ignored it and communicated with others freely about solutions.
Of course, it's not that no one has ever tried to really kill Chi Shen now, but with Xiao Yuan's previous experience, it seems that physical killing is not possible, so they thought about the things they learned... but it turned out to be completely useless, or it could not be used at all. In this room filled with ghost energy, all their magic weapons were ineffective and all their spells could not be used.
However, there was an outlier among them, Uncle Zhang. He didn't seem to understand what was happening, nor did he know what would happen in the future, but he was very calm. He poured himself a cup of hot tea and drank it while watching them think of a solution. It was getting late, so he leaned back in his chair and went to sleep!
Time passed little by little, and when it was just dawn, the ghost face that was still sticking to the window hesitating whether to go in suddenly started back to his senses from his trance and looked downstairs.
A dojo had been set up downstairs. Although he couldn't tell what it was used for, anything of the kind made him feel instinctively afraid.
Gui Lian looked into the window. Although he didn't know what Chi Shen was doing inside, he had to go in and remind Chi Shen!
In the office, after a night, several people had signs of fatigue on their faces. Their communication had reached the final stage, and then they encountered a most difficult problem.
After a night of preparation, they had someone set up the formation outside. This formation was the best formation they could come up with after learning from several major families. But the problem was that although they had set up the formation, no one could open the altar to perform the ritual.
The most powerful people in the Hong Kong City Special Security Bureau are all here, in this small office. If they want to save themselves, they have to take action, and if they want to take action, they have to get out, but they can't get out.
If they needed support from other family members, not to mention that they were the backbone of their family, and they were all relatively far away from each other, the nearest one would have to arrive this morning.
One person looked at the message on his mobile phone, then looked at Chi Shen with an anxious expression. This was the person closest to the port city, and judging from the distance, it would take another half an hour to arrive.
After Xiao Yuan stabbed Chi Shen, he became silent and only made a few phone calls in the early morning. At this moment, he suddenly turned his head and looked out the window and said, "It's dawn."
The man who was looking at the phone suddenly frowned and looked at Chi Shen.
Chi Shen slowly opened his eyes.
He sat against the light, the morning light shone in from behind him, drawing golden lines. He had just woken up and even his voice seemed a little soft: "Have you discussed it?"
