After Netero finished speaking, the bean-faced man who had been standing obediently turned on the television screen, which displayed photos of the two people.

The person on the left, dressed in a suit and wearing sunglasses, with a cold gaze, is none other than Long.

On the right is a blond boy who seems to have a bad temper; his expression is full of impatience…

Both of these photos were taken secretly.

The blond boy on the right is Kangzai, one of the twelve Earthly Branches in later generations, known as Yin Hu, a treasure hunter.

It really was the two of them!

The people at the table were not surprised when these two appeared on screen.

Kang Zai is quite capable and talented. At a young age, he has already achieved a certain level of success in his professional field. His personality is also very similar to that of Yin Hu. It is only natural that he was chosen by the old man.

As for Long... needless to say, although he is still relatively inexperienced, he has accomplished something that most of the twelve Earthly Branches present could not do.

Two and a half stars once, two stars once... almost all of these were achieved through individual ability.

Those with this level of skill... are like the Golden Freecss from back then.

If we choose solely based on strength, Oboro would definitely win with an overwhelming advantage.

Moreover, everyone knows perfectly well how well the president takes care of Oboro.

"I don't need to say much about these two... Although I was the one who made the final decision, I still want to see your choice," the old man said with a smile.

"Then... let's begin the voting."

Pariston interlaced his fingers, added, and raised one hand: "I vote for Oboro!"

The old man glanced at his vice president out of the corner of his eye, his smile unchanged, as if he was not surprised by Pariston's choice.

"My choice is Kang Jae."

Yorkshire explained his reasoning, “I acknowledge Oboro’s strength, but I’ve heard some things about his work style. Moreover, I think that in addition to strength, seniority is also very important for this position… otherwise it will be difficult to gain the respect of the masses and the recognition of the peers. From a compatibility perspective, Kang Zai is more suitable.”

"I know that with your personality, Chairman, you would never care about these things and would still choose whoever you want. But I have to remind you that if Oboro becomes one of us, I think he will be like Kim Freecss, disrupting the stability of the team... Even if he can quickly meet the requirements in terms of seniority and performance, it will still have some impact on your personal reputation during this period."

Yorkshire adjusted his glasses, speaking politely and offering a plausible explanation.

"I agree with Yorkshire."

Krug also raised his hand.

As for Chenlong Botebai, who was considered by others to be the closest to the president in terms of reputation and strength among the twelve earthly branches, and was also the most senior, he said in a deep voice: "Long!"

He uttered only one word.

"Since our choices are useless, we might as well go with the flow and do someone a favor. President, your preference is for that Long, right?" Shenhou Xiyou yawned. "Then I'll choose him! Anyway, it's all the same... there's no difference."

Snapped.

As soon as he finished speaking, Yorkshire slammed his hands on the table, his face serious, and said, "I hope everyone takes this matter seriously. The new person who joined is..."

Those who will be working with us in the future, this is very important!

“Uh… I think Yorkshire has a point, I choose Kangzai.”

Yin Da, with his afro, said憨憨地.

"Kang Jae!"

"hazy!"

The others also gave their answers one after another.

The final result was 4 to 6, with Kang Jae getting 4 votes and Oboro getting 6 votes!

Yorkshire's expression was somewhat unpleasant... With her quick wit, she had even guessed in advance why the president had called them here, so she had already given them a pep talk.

According to her prediction, it was 7 to 3... Oboro only had Pariston, Saiyuu, and Port White as her three votes.

The current outcome has completely exceeded her expectations.

With that thought in mind, she immediately turned and stared at the smiling man, Pariston!

It must be this guy who did it!

"You and Oboro have a good relationship?" Yorkshire asked coldly.

She felt that Pariston had made some dirty deal with Oboro.

If the two form an alliance and it affects future management decisions, Pariston will be able to seize the power he desires, which would be very detrimental to the association's future development.

"No, actually, since Oboro joined the association, he hasn't said a single word to me... I really wanted to be friends with him, but he... seems to hate me." Pariston smiled casually.

Yorkshire looked incredulous, sat down in her chair, and stared at the president.

It all depends on what the president chooses...

The chairman must have realized Pariston's thoughts.

"Well..." Under everyone's watchful eyes, Netero took a leisurely sip of tea.

The old man stroked his beard, looked at the younger generation on the table, and instead of giving them names, he had the man with the bean-shaped face make a phone call.

Communication was established quickly.

"Hey…"

A calm voice came from the other end of the phone.

hazy.

"Here's the thing... After discussion and decision at the meeting, I'm going to appoint you as the Tiger of the Twelve Earthly Branches. What do you think?" Netero said with a smile.

"I reject!"

Without even thinking, Long immediately refused.

This made Pariston squint.

Yorkshire breathed a sigh of relief.

"why?"

Netero seemed completely unsurprised by the answer, and instead asked with a smile.

"A waste of time... If you insist on appointing me, I naturally cannot refuse, but I cannot guarantee what the consequences will be," Oboro said calmly.

"Hoo ho..."

The old man burst into laughter.

Then, the phone hung up.

"Um... my decision is... Kang Jae."

Yin Hu Kangzai.

Upon hearing this, Pariston immediately stood up from his chair and waved his hand, saying, "Since there's a result, the discussion is over. I'll take my leave now."

He always had a smile on his face.

After speaking, he walked out of the conference room in front of the old man.

However, before pushing open the door and leaving, Pariston glanced back at the president's figure, a smile playing on his lips.

Then, he strode away.

I worked overtime yesterday and got home late... Sorry.

I'm making up for the missed update today.

116. Kim Freecss's Curiosity (Large Chapter)

Doesn't Long want to join the Twelve Earthly Branches?

No, of course he wanted to.

But not now…

Once they become one of the twelve Earthly Branches, they can use their administrative power to do many things.

It can reach some official levels.

The Fils family is currently making plans, which may take a long time to show results.

A complex network of connections alone is not enough; as the leader of the Fels family, Oboro's personal influence must also be increased.

What he wants is not just the twelve earthly branches, but even... the position of chairman.

The increase in his status and position will allow him to act more freely in the future... without being bound by V5.

To put it bluntly, it's all about power.

Putting down her phone, Menqi glanced over. She had overheard Oboro's conversation with the president... She was a little shocked that Oboro had the opportunity to join the Twelve Earthly Branches, but she understood.

Although Oboro had only completed two missions in the few years since he joined the association, his reputation had truly spread to every hunter in the association, given his abilities.

Why did you refuse?

Menqi couldn't help but ask.

Their mission this time is to protect a very important museum, because news has come that a powerful gang is preparing to sabotage it.

This opened the curtain on a power grab by the country's top brass... involving the regime.

Of course, none of this concerns them; their only responsibility is to prevent the venue from being damaged.

Long selects tasks, but doesn't initially choose those with stars in the profession; suitable difficulty is rare and requires waiting.

Oboro was unwilling to wait...

For now, the focus is on developing the skills of a few teammates.

Fortunately, completing the task adds something to one's resume, though it doesn't necessarily translate into professional credit.

So far, with Oboro around, the mission is progressing smoothly.

"The fact that the chairman called me means the time isn't right yet... Otherwise, given his personality, he wouldn't have bothered to notify me and would have just made the decision directly." Long stood on the museum's rooftop, watching the surrounding movements as she spoke softly.

"Ok?"

Men Qi looked puzzled.
