Sir! Don't close the net!

Chapter Thirty-Eight: You're here to confiscate our property, aren't you?

Having taken on this undercover role, Li Yili naturally considered all sorts of scenarios, such as being followed, having his underwear color discovered, having his interpersonal relationships thoroughly investigated, or someone secretly breaking into his home.

Al-Jonor seems like the kind of person who would do these things, but he's not worried. Even if Al-Jonor has any doubts, he can't find any direct evidence. As long as Dela Pal is still suppressing things, Al-Jonor can only search for evidence blindly.

But he overlooked one thing: the logistics company, Sheep Village, was just a disguise. They were the offspring of the Black Goat, a veritable cult. All the followers had undergone mobilization meetings; they were either brainwashed believers or fanatics even more loyal than those who had been brainwashed. They only behaved like normal people because their faith required them to disguise themselves as a logistics company.

For them, law and morality are nothing more than masks for disguise.

In theory, the moment there is even the slightest hint of trouble, they will immediately turn into madmen who raise torches, laugh, and perform bloody rituals by disemboweling innocent people.

A bead of cold sweat seeped from Li Yili's forehead and slid down. Amidst the strange shifting of the light, the Yunzhong people, dressed in formal attire and looking like corporate slaves, donned black robes adorned with bizarre symbols, and blood continued to seep from the briefcases in their hands.

He was certain that these cloud followers had no direct evidence to prove that he had the missing offerings or the lost contaminants, but they still charged over aggressively, as if they were going to dig up his house.

"Help? This doesn't look like you're here to help," Li Yili said, forcing herself to turn her head towards her home, arms crossed, chin raised, looking down at the army of Yun Zhong with an air of superiority. "What about your jobs? Don't you want to work anymore?!"

If this were inside the Sheep Village Building, Li Yili's shout would have been enough to make the entire Sheep Village army retreat. As long as they stayed inside the Sheep Village Building, they could clearly feel the pressure from Dela Pal. It wasn't Li Yili who roared at them and made their courage fade, but Dela Pal. However, this was a large ranch, where Dela Pal's intimidation was at its lowest. Moreover, the area was very open, so no matter how loud Li Yili's voice was, it couldn't intimidate all of them. It even made them notice the difference in their posture.

“This is our job,” Abu said, his expression becoming incredibly confident as he stepped forward and whispered in Li Yili’s ear, “You’ve hidden all the missing human sacrifices here, haven’t you?”

Li Yili's expression did not change at all.

Is it really appropriate to speak to your boss in this tone?

“Acting Minister, what do you think would happen if those human sacrifices were found in your house?” Abu Jean’s eyes darted left and right, searching for any clues related to the missing human sacrifices.

Li Yili narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze sweeping over the neatly arranged cloud crowd and landing on the Guoweidun residents who had followed out of curiosity.

That was, of course, a complete disaster.

Human sacrifices are different from pollutants.

Under no circumstances should the black goat's offspring be exposed; this is the bottom line that all of Guoweidun's followers adhere to. However, this does not mean that finding those human sacrifices at his home or his large ranch would expose the black goat's offspring.

He would only be seen by the residents of Guoweiton as someone who used his position to imprison pregnant women and underage girls, while these Yunzhong people discovered the matter and exposed this evil act in full view of everyone. The residents of Guoweiton would believe the Yunzhong people's story.

Because these cloud people had all come into contact with them and made wonderful promises to them.

Li Yili couldn't help but take a step back, crossing his arms and carefully sizing up the young executive in front of him. He had to admit that he had indeed underestimated this young man.

"It was you who went to the grain store to investigate the accounts before."

Let's go. ”

“That’s right, we’ve found quite a few suspicious points,” Abu Jang tilted his head toward the Cloud Clan behind him and deliberately raised his voice, “It seems the Acting Minister can’t handle everything by himself. You’ve all received a lot of help from the Acting Minister these past two days, so hurry up and come help.”

After saying that, Abu Rang simply shoved past Li Yili and walked straight toward Li Yili's residence. The other Yun Clan members also rushed forward, pulled the cages and boxes off the carriage, and, with their backs to the sheep village employees who were muttering, the united and friendly residents of Guoweidun, they poured into Li Yili's ranch with gleeful expressions, smashing and crushing the white wooden fences.

It was less of a favor and more of a raid on their property.

Li Yili patted her shoulder, took out a small notebook from her pocket, turned around with a gloomy face and followed. Yolan, who was trying to calm the suddenly agitated black horse by pulling on the reins, swayed back and forth between Li Yili's back and the Yun Clan with some unease.

To prevent the poultry from escaping, the fence was kicked open roughly. The rooster, which was resting, flapped its wings to intimidate the Cloud Enforcer who had barged in. The Cloud Enforcer then swung the chicken coop containing the hen and smashed it down. He turned around and kicked open the surrounding chicken coop, sending several eggs flying and shattering on the ground.

"Where? Is it here? Is it here?!"

The Yunzhong executive kicked the hen that pounced at him away and kept kicking and stomping on the ground, searching for the mechanism.

The same situation is playing out repeatedly on the large ranch, and the actions of the Cloud Clan are gradually shifting from seeking human sacrifices to venting their anger, with the idea of ​​destroying Li Yili's large ranch as much as possible gradually taking over their minds.

As Abu Rang headed straight for Li Yili's residence, the image of Valhou Lei flashed through his mind. Even though he knew Li Yili was right behind him and that he would open the door out of consideration for the situation, he still kicked the door open. The door frame shook, wood chips flew everywhere, and the door slammed heavily against the wall.

Abu Jean stepped through the door with a sense of urgency. A strange fragrance filled the air, both numbing and inflaming, stirring desire within. Yes, this was…

The smell of alcohol! And it's the smell of many different spirits mixed together! It's like someone sprayed spirits everywhere like perfume!

Abu Jean felt a burning pain in his eyes, but he still endured the pain and walked towards the living room while surveying his surroundings. There was no trace of Valhae Rae, but in the corner he saw a mountain of empty wine bottles. Most of the bottles had a skull and cross on them, which meant "do not drink excessively".

“The acting minister certainly knows how to enjoy life,” Abu Jean sneered. “He might just suddenly die at home one day.”

Li Yili rolled her eyes.

All of those were drunk by Valkyrie, but he was too lazy to explain now.

“Executive Abu Rang, you know him,” Li Yili tapped her open notebook with a pen, revealing a bright smile.

"I'll keep track of everything, one by one. You'd better be careful with your next move, or you might find yourself struggling to pay off debts later..."

He died suddenly at the construction site.

Chapter Thirty-Nine: He must be bluffing.

Abu Rang's heart skipped a beat. Even someone as confident as him felt inexplicably uneasy under Li Yili's gaze.

He's sure of it!

All the missing human sacrifices were on Li Yili's large ranch. Every piece of evidence he found pointed him to this ranch, but unfortunately, there was no direct evidence, and they didn't have much time left. But! Who says that without direct evidence, they can't find the missing human sacrifices?

The only place Li Yili could use to hide the missing human sacrifices was the large ranch. As long as they could find the human sacrifices from the large ranch, that would be enough.

Now that Dela Pal, the chosen one of the gods, is not here, almost all the Cloud Clan are holding their breath against Li Yili. Li Yili is outnumbered and outmatched, making this the perfect opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the Great Ranch and find the human sacrifice.

But he hadn't really considered what to do if he couldn't find a human sacrifice in the large ranch.

Just as Abu Jean was about to speak, he heard the squeals of poultry and the sound of something collapsing.

Li Yili raised an eyebrow, scribbled a few lines in her notebook, and then gestured to Abu Rang, "Continue, continue. By the way, things here are more expensive."

It's a bluff! It must be a bluff!

Abu made a cold sweat trickle down his forehead. He turned around, shoved the sofa in front of the fireplace aside, and slammed his fist on the floor twice. "Is this it?! There's another level down here!"

Li Yili rolled her eyes, turned around and peeked at the location where she had set up her livestock farm on the large ranch.

Everything was in chaos and disorder.

He was increasingly suspicious that these cloud followers were not actually coming to him for human sacrifice, but were actually taking the opportunity to demolish his house. Thinking about the mess he would have to clean up afterward, Li Yili had the idea of ​​simply changing from keeping them in captivity to letting them roam freely.

"It's empty! It's empty down there!"

“Isn’t that obvious? This is a wooden floor, isn’t it normal to have a layer in the middle?” Li Yili leaned against the door frame and slowly wrote another stroke in her notebook. “Speaking of which, Executive Officer Abu Rang, how do you think this matter will end?”

Abu Jang, who was furious at not being able to find the "mechanism" and was about to push over the cabinet attached to the wall, froze.

"This is without a doubt"

This is an extremely egregious act of insubordination, but there's a saying that "the law doesn't punish the masses." It seems all the Cloud Clan members of Sheep Village were involved. Considering I'll need these guys to work for me in the future, I can't punish them all. The best approach is to show them kindness. Of course, I don't have a penchant for rewarding those who come to vandalize my house.

Li Yili smiled brightly.

"Not punishing is an act of kindness."

“Executive Abu Jean, I won’t beat around the bush. You will take full responsibility.”

"What did you say?!" Abu Jean exclaimed, his face filled with disbelief.

“Isn’t that obvious? You’re the leader, they’re the ones you instigated, so they’re your tools,” Li Yili said, raising her finger and waving it from side to side. “I think they’ll agree with my decision, just like they listened to you and came here to search… no, to take the opportunity to vent their dissatisfaction with me.”

Abu Jang's legs buckled and he almost fell to the ground.

"How does it feel? It's like riding a wild, mad horse. You're losing control of everything, and the price you have to pay is increasing beyond your control. You can't stop it anymore."

"You, you're trying to scare me!" Abu Jang raised his hand and waved it, his breathing becoming increasingly heavy. His gaze darted left and right as he tried to calm down, but the screams of poultry and the sounds of smashing and breaking things around him made it impossible for him to think.

There was no doubt that Abu Jang was frightened, but Li Yili did not feel happy or relaxed. Instead, her heart skipped a beat, and her ominous premonition grew stronger.

He quite readily revealed his objective, and began to waver because he hadn't found the "mechanism" immediately. He was so frightened by Abu Jean's casual words that he doubted his existence and was at a loss. He did not underestimate Abu Jean.

Li Yili's eyes widened slightly. There was someone who should have been here the most, but he wasn't.

Al-Jonor!

Al-Qiong is not among the army of Zhiyun!

He should have noticed! But the Cloud Clan came with great momentum, and Abu Jean was very confident in his face, so he subconsciously felt that this surprise attack was planned by Abu Jean.

Abu Jean was just a flashbang used to distract him! El Giono's target wasn't the missing human sacrifices, but the contaminants he had stolen!

Li Yili narrowed her eyes slightly, suddenly chuckled, closed her notebook, turned and stepped out the door.

"What a farce... Oh well, I can't stop you anyway, so let's continue. Since you're all here, and the Sheep Village building is mostly empty, it would be terrible if a thief showed up. What if something gets stolen..."

Li Yili tilted her head and glanced at Abu Rang, who was instinctively trying to stop her.

"It's all your responsibility."

Abu Rang froze on the spot, only able to watch helplessly as Li Yili walked away.

Li Yili left. He should have been happy, so he could search the place thoroughly to find the missing human sacrifice. But Li Yili left, even though he knew they were conducting a thorough search like ransacking a house, and she still left quite decisively.

The only reason he could think of for Li Yili to do this was that the human sacrifice wasn't actually here.

"Mr. Richard, this is..."

Seeing Li Yili walking towards them, and then glancing at the commotion at the farm in the distance, Yolan cautiously asked, "What's going on?"

Other residents of Guoweiton who had been curious about what was going on all looked over.

Li Yili adjusted her breathing, then raised her hand and waved it with feigned helplessness, "How could a bunch of civil servants who sit in chairs all day possibly understand the principle that you have to grab a chicken by the wings to control it?"

"If you don't mind, you can lend a hand a little."

Upon hearing Li Yili's words, the residents of Guoweidun suddenly realized and laughed, saying that since they were already there, they could help out. They then headed towards the ranch, while many others kept glancing at Li Yili's house in the center of the ranch.

Li Yili narrowed her eyes slightly and then raised her hand to press on the black horse's forehead. "If it's not pulling the carriage, how fast can it run?"

Yoram hesitated. What kind of horse pulls a carriage from the start? But he had forgotten how fast this black horse could run without the carriage's burden, because it would not separate from the carriage until it could run no more.

Yolan did not answer, but the black horse raised its hooves and neighed spiritedly, answering Li Yili's question.

"Yoran, I will come to apologize in person later!"

Li Yili slapped Yolan on the shoulder, and before Yolan could react, she forcefully untied the rope, grabbed the reins, and mounted the horse. Without Li Yili even needing to urge it on, the black horse neighed energetically and galloped straight toward Guo Weidun.

Yolan opened his mouth as he watched the black horse disappear into the distance.

Absurdity, surprise, anger, disbelief—none of the expected emotions appeared; only envy.

The heavy gate slowly opened, and a humanoid shadow stretched out. A strange halo, seemingly one with the shadow, extended along the iron gate like oddly shaped arms, reaching into the oppressive darkness.

"This is...the place!"

Fortieth

Zhang was so scared he almost peed his pants.

Li Yili frowned deeply, gripping the reins tightly with both hands, pressing her body down as much as possible to reduce resistance.
