Wan Li, who was suddenly called out, was speechless: "???"
I have a bad feeling!
In fact, her premonition was correct, because after Wan Jiao called her name, she gave the order without any hesitation, "You don't need to go to the case in Jijia Village this time."
"Why?" Wan Li protested. "Am I not a member of the second team? Why can't I go?"
Xu Rou also stood up to speak for Wan Li. "Wan Jiao, Director An did say everyone should obey your orders, but you're arbitrarily preventing Wan Li from going to Ji Family Village, isn't that...?"
However, before Xu Rou could finish speaking, Wan Jiao interrupted her sharply, saying, word by word, "The Special Security Bureau doesn't need people who disobey orders, and neither do I. Xu Rou, you can stand up for her, but only if you're prepared not to go to Ji Family Village."
The case in Jijiacun is of great importance; if handled well and included in one's resume, it would be a very impressive one.
Although Xu Rou comes from a good family and has high aspirations, she is still a young woman with someone she admires and naturally cares about whether she is a good match for him.
She couldn't give up this opportunity.
After Wan Jiao finished speaking, Xu Rou gave Wan Li a deep look, then shut her mouth. Her apology was written all over her face. Wan Li, of course, didn't blame her best friend Xu Rou; she only felt that Wan Jiao was too malicious!
Having learned from Xu Rou's experience, the other members of Team One and Team Two dared not plead for Wan Li any longer.
Humans are inherently selfish.
If your own interests aren't violated, then anything goes. But once those interests are violated, even parents, siblings, and loving spouses can turn against each other, let alone ordinary colleagues?
…
Wan Jiao used her spiritual power to draw a teleportation talisman, leading the people of Team Seven and Si Yue into the range of the talisman. Then she looked at Team One and Team Two, her meaning self-evident.
But they looked at each other, unmoved.
Now Qi Mingyu was even more annoyed. "What are you all standing there for? Aren't you going to come over and wait for our captain to invite you?"
Despite their displeasure, the first and second teams still walked over and stood with Wan Jiao and the others. Just as they were all waiting to see what tricks Wan Jiao would play, they arrived at the entrance of Ji Family Village in the blink of an eye, as if in a dream. With just a slight glance, they could clearly see the three large characters "Ji Family Village".
The two teams, totaling nineteen people, were staring at Wan Jiao in terror, as if they had seen a ghost.
"Holy crap, am I dreaming?"
"This teleportation talisman can transport so many people? And so far?"
"I remember that activating the teleportation talisman requires a lot of spiritual energy, and the more people there are, the more spiritual energy is consumed..."
"..."
Wan Jiao acted as if she hadn't heard a word they said. She reached into her canvas bag, pulled out a stack of red talismans, and instructed Si Yue, "Give one to each person."
"Yes, Master."
As Si Yue responded, she took the talisman handed to her by Wan Jiao and began distributing it to everyone.
In the blink of an eye, the talisman was finished.
The nineteen people stared at the red talisman in each of their hands, their hearts filled with shock.
These are red talismans, each one is quite valuable, and the entire Special Security Bureau doesn't have many. Yet Wan Jiao gave away so many in one go, she's simply... incredibly wealthy.
Team leader Yu Shi raised an eyebrow slightly, his gaze towards Wan Jiao carrying a profound meaning.
Unlike Yu Shiyi, the second team leader Zhen Bufan was not as direct, but he still couldn't help but glance at Wan Jiao out of the corner of his eye, thinking to himself: Could she really be some kind of important person?
So many red talismans, such a grand gesture, how could a small family possibly afford to do that?
