"Secretary Liu, what happened? Why did you call us here in such a hurry? Does the commander have any new instructions?" the visitor asked anxiously as he entered the room.
"You're so flustered! How can you be so flustered? Mayor Yu, you said you are a veteran in officialdom, so why are you still so impetuous?" Liu Shuyun scolded.
"Uh..." The visitors were a little speechless. They felt that Secretary Liu seemed a little different today. His aura was completely different from before, and they also called him the same title as before the snowstorm. Mayor Yu, what an old title! Since joining this base, no one has ever called him mayor again.
When he saw Li Mu sitting next to Liu Shuyun, a trace of doubt flashed across his eyes: "Who is this person? How can he sit next to Secretary Liu?"
There was another knock on the door, and the person who came in this time was Director Cai, who had some conflict with Li Mu at the command department entrance before.
Director Cai was also a little surprised when she saw Li Mu, and then a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes, but she was not stupid. At this time, Li Mu was sitting next to Liu Shuyun, which was enough to show that Liu Shuyun valued Li Mu, so her expression quickly returned to calm.
Liu Shuyun patted his forehead and said apologetically, "Ah~, look at my memory? Brother Li Mu, I know you and Xiao Cai had some unpleasantness before, but we are all a family from now on, can you let this matter go?"
"I don't care." Li Mu said lightly.
Liu Shuyun smiled heartily, and then said to Director Cai: "Xiao Cai, some of our old friends will be here later, you should prepare yourself, and remember, you must follow the strict standards, just like before the snowstorm!"
"I understand." Director Cai nodded, but he was secretly complaining in his heart: "What's wrong with this old man? He's still following the standards before the snowstorm? Do I have to find two people to pull the ropes to arrange the teacups?"
Although Director Cai complained in his heart, he did not delay. After receiving the task, he quickly ran to the conference table at the back of the office to prepare.
Liu Shuyun's office is very large, and he specially had a conference table placed in the office to facilitate his work.
Next, another six people came to Liu Shuyun's office one after another. Liu Shuyun greeted them one by one, and the titles he used were according to their positions before the snowstorm: deputy governor, secretary, department director, and deputy department director, all of whom were high-ranking officials in the province.
Among these people, there was one person he had met before, that was the so-called Mr. Qi, a second-level super-powered person. This person was also the only super-powered person among these eight people. However, Mr. Qi did not hold any official position and was still called Xiao Qi by Liu Shuyun.
The scene was eerily quiet at this moment. The people sitting below were feeling uneasy. Liu Shuyun was acting very abnormal today. Not only was his aura completely different from when he was a secretary before, but he even called them by their previous positions. Most importantly, they discovered that everyone present was Liu Shuyun's confidant!
With all these things in mind, how could they not think too much?
"Haha, don't be nervous, let's go to the meeting area and take a seat first." Liu Shuyun smiled calmly, then he stood up and took the lead to walk to the conference table and sit down.
Director Cai did a great job in preparing for the meeting, especially the tea cups, which were placed neatly in a straight line. Liu Shuyun was watching as Director Cai was arranging things just now. She arranged the tea cups so neatly without even pulling the rope, which shows her excellent work ability. She is worthy of being his right-hand man!
The others looked at each other and had no choice but to follow.
After everyone was seated, Liu Shuyun began to speak: "Everyone, I'm sure you've guessed it. A major incident has occurred at the base, and it's time for us to show our abilities. You and I were all well-known figures in Hanbei Province before, but now we can only live like mice deep underground, under the command of the gardener!"
"Secretary Liu, be careful with your words, be careful with your words!" A middle-aged white-haired man said repeatedly, his face full of fear. The others were not much better. When they heard Liu Shuyun's remarks, their faces turned pale with fear.
The gardener Liu Shuyun mentioned is Wang Ping, the former commander of the Spark Base. Wang Ping was originally a small leader in the Doomsday Seed Vault. After they moved in, they naturally looked down on Wang Ping and privately called him the gardener. Later, they didn't know when, but they began to identify with Wang Ping from the bottom of their hearts, and after Wang Ping proposed himself as the supreme leader of the Spark Base, they supported him without hesitation.
"Hmph~ Old Hu, you're the police chief of our Hanbei Province, but you get scared like this when I mention that gardener! Look how frustrated you are here. Your jet-black hair has turned white." Liu Shuyun snorted coldly.
After a pause, he continued to roar, "And you! Where has your former authority gone? In just a few days, you have all become submissive and willing to be enslaved by the gardener!"
Seeing everyone lowering their heads in shame, Liu Shuyun's expression finally eased a little, and he said to everyone: "Don't worry, the gardener is dead. He was beaten to death by my brother Li Mu himself!"
As he said this, he looked at Li Mu who was sitting next to him.
"Wow~" Everyone was in an uproar and suddenly raised their heads.
"What? The commander is dead?"
"How is this possible?"
"If the commander is gone, can our base still be maintained?"
…………
Everyone was chattering, but no one said they wanted to avenge Wang Ping. This was naturally because after Wang Ping's death, the power that controlled their minds also disappeared. They did not have much respect for Wang Ping now, and all they had was confusion about their future.
"Quiet! The earth will continue to rotate without anyone! Wang Ping is also a human, not a god!" Liu Shuyun shouted in a deep voice.
"From now on, I will take over the Spark Base and I will be the new commander! Will you follow me?" Liu Shuyun said domineeringly.
Everyone was silent for a long time, and a middle-aged man with a big belly said with difficulty: "Secretary Liu, oh no, Governor Liu, it's not that we don't trust your ability, it's just that we are weak! We only have Mr. Qi, a second-level superpower, who we can trust. What can we use to fight for power? Not to mention the superpowers in the patrol team, we can't even beat the military!"
"Haha, Secretary Lin, you worry too much. Now we are the only ones who know the news of Wang Ping's death. As long as we quickly take over the command of the base, won't we have people under our command? Besides, our former commander is not an ordinary person. He is a third-level super-powered person. Guess how our brother Li Mu killed him?" Liu Shuyun smiled. In fact, he only thought that Wang Ping was only a second-level person, but in order to boost everyone's morale and shock everyone, he lied about Wang Ping's strength, so that Li Mu's strength could be better highlighted.
However, Liu Shuyun's move was unnecessary. Wang Ping was originally at the third level, but he was just an ant in front of Li Mu.
"This... Commander, I'm done with you. Damn it, I've been so depressed during this period!" A man suddenly stood up and shouted.
"Fuck it, take over the base and regain our former glory!"
