Soul Trigger

Chapter 355 Showing Goodwill
Ji Li took the other party's ID, the name was "Song Kanghao", and then looked at the document and flipped through it:
"Will the 'Investigation Bureau' support me, or will 'Director Yin' support me?"

The cheerful young man named Song Kanghao was slightly stunned, and then smiled:

"You are much more perceptive than the rumors say..."

"Rumors? My gossip has spread to the Capital Investigation Bureau?"

"Gossip?" Song Kanghao blinked. He had just arrived in Aurora City today.

Snapped!
Ji Li folded the documents and threw them to him. He hurriedly sorted them out and heard the director-general in front of him open the door:

"Enter."

As his representative, Jasmine is currently conveying his instructions at an important site in the Lingbo Prison Cluster, so there is no secretary to help Ji Li look at these official documents today, and he is too lazy to read them.

"What instructions does Director Yin have?"

"Don't dare, don't dare..."

Song Kanghao followed Ji Li and sat with him in the reception area of ​​the director's office. He even swiftly picked up the teapot on the table to make tea for him, but the teapot was empty.

As he stared blankly, a wine glass was placed in front of him, and golden whiskey flowed into it:

"This is all I have here, drink it."

"…Hey, this is so embarrassing…Thank you, Director!"

Song Kanghao is young, but he looks like a master in the workplace. He stood up and handed it over with both hands. People like him are generally called masters of reading the air.

After taking a sip, he praised the drink highly, without mentioning a single word about why the Director-General took the lead in violating discipline.

After sitting down, Song Kanghao started to flatter Ji Li again. He first praised Ji Li for being young and promising, and said that someone as poor as me was not as good as him.

Then he started to brag about how Ji Li had resolved recent major events, from the earliest gluttony train, to the exhibition, and to the most recent Fantasy Light Fairy, his speech was so eloquent.

"That's about it." Ji Li put down his wine glass, and the cold mask of cognitive disguise was facing him:
"I know the Capital Investigation Bureau is 'very' familiar with my situation, so let's talk about something useful."

Song Kanghao was slightly stunned, then smiled:
"You are indeed completely different from the rumors..."

Song Kanghao was praising on the surface, but he also sent a signal:
We know you well.

"Tell me about the rumors."

"Yes!"

From Song Kanghao, Ji Li learned about the Capital Investigation Bureau's current attitude towards him, which basically had the words "arrogant and domineering" and "disregarding the rules" nailed into his file.

And that manager Yin, the mainstay of Song Kanghao's faction, chose to show goodwill to Ji Li.

They also took the initiative to clear some other obstacles for him within the investigation bureau, allocated all the materials previously requested by the bureau, and gave him the administrative green light.

"Honestly, I don't care what the so-called Silla capital thinks of me."

Ji Li picked up the wine glass and took a sip:
"But your sincerity is great. If you want to drag me into your political circus, I don't have the time. But if it's about cooperation, I'm happy for everyone to get what they want. You should understand what I mean."

Song Kanghao didn't expect Ji Li to be so straightforward, nor did he expect him to be so easy to talk to. This made all the persuasion he had prepared go in vain, and he was a little distracted for a moment:
"...You really are the kind of person who doesn't mince words?"

Ji Li opened his phone and replied:
“So what I care about is, what can you give me?”

Song Kanghao also gradually put away his professional smile and said seriously:
"In addition to confidential intelligence, we can give you the green light from an administrative perspective. The allocation of materials and budget can be at the same level as the capital, but the procedures are different."

"I heard that you recently had some conflicts with the people of the Kaiton Federation. We can also mediate and ensure that the conflict is resolved in a reasonable, legal and legal manner with the greatest benefit to you at the lowest cost."

"We will also provide a suitable list of human anchors in Aurora City for you to choose from."

"In addition, you will also enjoy the allocation quota of some high-end materials held by our Yin faction, such as personality relics, high-standard spiritual circuits, and even private spiritual prisons, or shares of Gaoxing Group. We can arrange them..."

"We know that you are dealing with the Tower of Babel. In this regard, we can also provide intelligence support."

Ji Li's fingers paused for a moment and glanced at him:
“… Kind of interesting.”

Apart from the content related to materials in the latter part, the basic meaning of the former part is that this "Yin faction" is willing to let Ji Li become a "local emperor" in Aurora City.

"So what do I have to give?"

Song Kanghao smiled brilliantly, picked up his glass and clinked it with Ji Li's, then poured the wine into his mouth:
"You don't need to do anything for now. Just think of it as... a gesture of goodwill."

"After that, if you are willing to support the Yin faction in the general election, we will be very grateful." Presidential election? Ji Li raised his eyebrows:

“Can I run for election?”

Song Kanghao sprayed a mouthful of wine onto the sofa opposite him:
"what?"

Ji Li spread his hands:

“I am considered a politician now.”

Song Kanghao's mouth twitched——

Dear Director General...you are suspected to be just 17 this year.

Forget about minors. You are a Shulong person. Ignoring your nationality, I will give you the green light. That is good enough...

"...Strictly speaking, it's not impossible, but you are a reflection walker."

"According to the 1948 Shilla Deed of Mutual Covenant, a Reflection Walker cannot become a senator or participate in elections."

Ji Li smiled:

"Then why not just change the deed?"

Song Kanghao immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and he really couldn't hold it in any longer:
"...Please be careful what you say."

"I understand." Ji Li lay down on the sofa:
"I reject."

"……what?"

Ji Li seemed so easy to talk to, and Song Kanghao didn't expect such a reply:

"why?"

"not enough."

"Please believe in our sincerity."

Song Kanghao said firmly:

“We are well aware of the dangers of the Babel Tower, and we also know that it is difficult for you to deal with them with your current strength. This is both good for you and for Silla.”

"As long as the cooperation begins, no matter what you want..."

"Give me a flesh and blood door."

Song Kanghao: “…”

“I want to be president.”

Song Kanghao: “…”

"Look, you can't afford it."

Song Kanghao's face was throbbing with veins: "Please don't make such a joke, our sincerity..."

"Why do you think I'm joking?"

Ji Li's indifferent gaze swept over his body, and the latter instantly stood up. He resisted the urge to explode and frantically soothed the trigger of his soul that was about to vibrate and crack.

And Ji Li stretched out his hand:
"Don't be so nervous."

He took the wine glass from the other person's hand, which was shaking and making the sound of ice cubes colliding.

"Why don't you just stay in Aurora City and take a look..."

Then he smiled:

"See if the Tower of Babel is that 'difficult' for me."

"Then we'll talk again."
