【By the way, do you want to change your name? 】
[Do I have to change it? The name Fan Su was given to me by my husband. If possible, I don’t want to change it.]
[Not really. Compared to names like Bai Juyi, Fan Su's name is just a slightly larger grain of sand in the long river of history. It won't cause any waves, so it doesn't matter if it's not changed.]
【Then I will not change. 】
【Whatever.】
As for the technology of demon body transformation, ever since the breakthrough was made on Clivia and others, the inner world has innovated and upgraded this technology. The demon body templates now launched can be artificially made, and there is no need to specifically look for dead demon bodies anymore.
After all, it is not very moral to tell others about occupying another person's body, even if the person is already dead, and there is also the risk of being hunted down by his relatives and friends afterwards.
It is worth mentioning that Su Xuan’s shadow is said to be behind this demon body manufacturing business. It can be said that although Su Fox is not in the inner world, her shadow is everywhere in the inner world.
[Master, the Flower Bureau has sent over the results of the handling of the Xiao Man incident.]
[Oh? What did you say? ]
[As expected, both were sent back to the Zhaowu Army, but the Zhaowu Army also paid a heavy price for this, giving up a lot of benefits to the three major forces, and also... ]
[Huanyan, I don't want to hear those irrelevant and meaningless things. I just want to know what delicious food we got from it? ]
[Well, it's not stated in the letter, but according to gossip, the roundtable meeting seems to be planning to promote you to the leadership team of the Monetary Authority.]
【That's it? 】
[Well, for now, that’s it. ]
[This is too bad, at least give them a raise! ]
[Well, isn't it good to join the leadership team? ]
[What a bullshit! The captain of the demon currency inspection team should have been a member of the leadership team of the bureau, but I used the excuse that I was too young, lacked experience, and had no leadership experience to get away with it.]
[I didn't expect that these damn old idiots would use this incident to kick me back! Oh, life is hopeless! ]
[Oh, so that's how it is. Then this time we have lost both the lady and the army, right? ]
[Well, that's not necessarily the case. After all, you said it was just gossip. There should be other compensation, but it just hasn't been spread yet.]
[However, no matter how much good news she has, it cannot outweigh the pain brought by this overtime notice. ]
[Hahaha, it doesn't matter, Huanyan will accompany you. ]
【Oh, Huanyan is so cute. 】
The Time Management Bureau and the Round Table Conference have not yet reached a conclusion on the issue of Shen Yuelan's reward, but Jing'an kept his word and immediately got Shen Yuelan an actual position as the Chief of Staff and Acting Commander of the Corps.
The corps that Shen Yuelan serves in is the 38th Corps, which is indeed a newly formed field corps. It is said that it has not yet completed the recruitment of soldiers and most of the positions are vacant.
However, Shen Yuelan had no dissatisfaction with this. An incomplete legion was what Shen Yuelan wanted. Once the legion was formed, she would have to go to work again. It could only be said that Jing'an was a good leader who understood people's hearts.
Not long after Shen Yuelan became the acting legion commander, Huichang Yao was also arrested. However, this arrest was very different from what Shen Yuelan had imagined, as Huichang Yao surrendered himself voluntarily.
The name of Huichang Monster is quite simple and crude, it is Huichang Luo. Huichang is the year name, and Luo represents the place where she was cast, Luoyang. Unlike the simple and crude name, Huichang Luo herself is a quite gentle lady.
Shen Yuelan was very confused. Why was such a coin demon imprisoned in the brigade prison? What crime had she committed? Was she murdering her husband?
Hui Changluo herself was very indignant about this. She told Shen Yuelan that she was implicated by her relatives and friends, but in fact she did nothing. She was mistakenly arrested by the blind law enforcement officers just because their family names looked a bit similar.
[If that's the case, then why don't you appeal to the team? I remember there is a mechanism for redressing grievances in the team? ]
【Alas, because I didn’t make it in time. 】
【ha? 】
[It’s like this, I was imprisoned the day before the prison riot, and before I could finish writing my petition, the prison exploded.]
[Also, the prison was in chaos at the time. I don’t know where the bastards came from, but they kept firing at the prison. It would be fine if you fired, but why don’t you shoot at the prisoners who were making trouble? Alas, she didn’t do that.]
[Of the hundreds of shells, at least two-thirds hit those of us who stayed in prison obediently. If I continued to stay in the prison, I would be dead. I didn't want to die unjustly, so I took advantage of the chaos to escape.]
After listening to Hui Changluo's explanation, the two culprits, Shen Yuelan and Shen Huanyan, felt somewhat guilty at this time. They looked at each other awkwardly, and then walked away as if nothing had happened.
I didn't expect that I could still run into survivors after such a long time. It's so embarrassing. However, it's impossible to admit it at this point, so I'd better change the subject quickly.
[Ahahaha, so that's it. Since you've already escaped, why did you come back and turn yourself in? ]
[You're saying it as if you won't arrest me unless I turn myself in.]
When Hui Changluo complained, he glared at Shen Yuelan in resentment. Shen Yuelan touched her nose guiltily when she saw this. Could this guy have recognized her? No, she had to be tougher.
【Ahem, please answer our questions directly. 】
[Like I said, if I cannot clear myself of the injustice, then even if I flee to the ends of the earth, you will find me and kill me.]
[Since this is the case, I might as well turn myself in and try to clear my name as soon as possible so that I can regain my freedom.]
[So that's what you think. Not bad. You are pretty good.]
[By the way, since you dare to come here, it means that you have prepared evidence to prove your innocence, right? ]
[That’s right, but forgive me for being rude, I don’t dare to present it at this moment, because this is the only relevant piece of evidence. If it is destroyed by someone with ulterior motives, then I will never be able to turn over a new leaf.]
[Haha, she is quite cautious. Anyway, Huanyan, go inform Director Si and Deputy Director Gan that they are back. The coin demon is crying foul.]
【promise!】
Chapter 340 Temporary Court
Because Huichang Luo is still Shen Yuelan's mission target, Si Ziqin and others cannot bypass Shen Yuelan and take him directly back to the Monetary Administration. Therefore, under the witness of Shen Yuelan, a public trial that looks quite serious was staged directly in a small courtyard in Chang'an City.
As the presiding judge, Si Ziqin changed his previous unremarkable image and sat majestically on the high seat, looking down at everyone, looking very realistic.
Gan Yuelong, as the prosecutor, was also dressed in formal attire, holding a pile of materials in her arms. She was sitting at the west end of the courtyard, looking at him eagerly. She also wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, which made her look more scholarly.
Huanyan, Yuhuan and Zhiwei also played the roles of clerk and juror respectively. As for other marginal roles such as bailiffs, they were played by the Song imperial guards who looked very imposing, and Shen Yuelan actually served as the head of the bailiffs.
Shen Yuelan, who was squatting at the gate of the courtyard, looked back at the solemn court, then opened the gate with a feeling and secretly looked outside. She always had a feeling that someone would break in soon, and then shouted at them with full momentum:
[Hey! Who dares to set up a private court? Wow! Wow! Wow! ]
The reason why Shen Yuelan had such an illusion was that the trial process of the entire case was too boring. The evidence provided by Hui Changluo was quite sufficient, so in court, the two sides did not even have a word of argument, and there was nothing interesting to watch.
However, Fan Su held a different opinion on this. She liked the atmosphere of this temporary court very much, especially seeing Si Ziqin sitting in the upper seat and giving orders, which particularly touched her heart.
It turns out that women can be so majestic and heroic.
Si Ziqin was naturally very pleased with Fan Su, who admired her very much. Originally, the Soul Management Bureau was very dissatisfied with Shen Yuelan's rescue of people from the surface world again, and protested to Si Ziqin many times.
Si Ziqin also planned to take this opportunity to let Shen Yuelan know what the rules are, but now it seems that this matter is not so urgent, hehe.
Gan Yuelong, Si Ziqin's current girlfriend, quickly discovered that something was wrong with her woman. She glanced at Fan Su, then turned back to glance at Si Ziqin, and immediately a look of understanding appeared on her face. It seemed that her relationship was about to come to an end.
Yes, Gan Yuelong has planned to unilaterally cut off this relationship. She has never liked eating from the same trough with others, and she dislikes people who are indecisive and abandon them.
Si Ziqin, who was still unaware that she had lost her lover, solemnly announced to everyone after examining the last piece of evidence provided by Hui Changluo that Hui Changluo was indeed innocent and that the mistake was made by the Currency Inspection Team.
The Currency Inspection Brigade must pay Ms. Huichang Luo a total of 100 million Yaoji coins in compensation, including compensation for mental damage, loss of work, damage to reputation, and damage to health.
Furthermore, in the previous arrest operation, Miss Huichang Luo's house and the human contractors were severely damaged. After so many years, there is no need to save them anymore.
Therefore, Miss Huichang Luo asked the Currency Inspection Team to compensate her with a house and a new contractor.
So, who should pay for these things? Normally, the financial and office directors of the currency inspection team should be responsible for settling the compensation.
But in fact, the finance position of the Currency Inspection Brigade was vacant, because the previous captain was too capable and liked to monopolize power, so both the finance and office director positions were held by the captain concurrently.
So now it's clear who's going to pay, right? That's right, it's Shen Yuelan who's looking shocked.
[No, why? I didn't arrest her, why should I pay compensation? Shouldn't the one who arrested her be the one to pay compensation?]
[Hehe, normally it is like this, but that operator has already died in the previous prison riot. We can't hold a martyr who has already died accountable, so the compensation can only be paid by the brigade. ]
[Of course, it doesn't mean that you have to pay this money personally, but because the amount of money is relatively large, it will take time for the brigade to apply for it, but Miss Huichang Luo can't wait for us to go through the process. ]
[So some people need to sacrifice their wallets and advance the fees. Afterwards, the bureau or the brigade will find a way to make it up to you through other channels.]
After much persuasion from Gan Yuelong, Shen Yuelan finally agreed to temporarily advance the payment. After all, it was a job like this and this was bound to happen. But money was one thing, but what about the house and the contractor?
[Ms. Huichang Luo, what do you think about the house and the contractor? ]
[Well, I heard that the other world has also started to organize monsters, so I plan to move there to live. If possible, please give me a house in the other world. ]
As soon as Shen Yuelan heard this, she knew that this matter had fallen on her head again. Sure enough, after Hui Changluo finished speaking, Gan Yuelong and Si Ziqin's eyes immediately fell on Shen Yuelan.
Shen Yuelan was both angry and amused when she saw this. He was treating her like an ATM.
However, after rubbing her eyes, Shen Yuelan still agreed to the job. After all, in the other world, no one was better at building houses than her family. In the end, she would be rewarded anyway, so she could take this opportunity to make a fortune.
As for the final contractor, both Hui Changluo and Gan Yuelong were in a dilemma. Gan Yuelong couldn't find a suitable candidate for the time being, and Hui Changluo didn't want to just pick someone casually.
Everyone turned their eyes to Shen Yuelan again, which made Shen Yuelan very angry. There was no house to build, so she asked them to find a contractor.
[Hey, hey, hey! You can't just keep staring at me, the team has some responsibility, but you can't say that you don't have any responsibility at all, right? ]
Seeing that Shen Yuelan was about to blow up the temple, Gan Yuelong and Si Ziqin withdrew their gazes with regret, and tried to communicate with Hui Changluo again to see if they could change it to something else.
Fortunately, Hui Changluo was not a person who liked to force others to do things. Seeing that this matter was difficult to accomplish, she stopped forcing it and instead chose to seek a job in the other world from Gan Yuelong and others.
This request was easy to solve. The three people present had the power to arrange this matter, so the task once again fell on Shen Yuelan. However, at this time, Shen Yuelan no longer had the resistance she had before.
She was not a fool, so she could see that Gan Yuelong and Si Ziqin were pushing Hui Changluo towards them. Although she didn't know what was so special about this person, it was not difficult for Shen Yuelan to raise Hui Changluo.
Whether it is a mule or a horse, we will know when we take it out for a walk.
Chapter 341: Unchanged original intention
After Gan Yuelong and Si Ziqin ruled Huichang Luo not guilty, they quickly left the surface world. Looking at the tense atmosphere when the two left, it seemed that there was still a lawsuit between them.
Although they left at this point, the two of them brought news from two other worlds to Shen Yuelan. One of the news was that Su Xuan and Shen Sushang had returned with a fleet not long ago, and along with the fleet came the huge wealth that Su Xuan had earned on this trip.
Shen Suchang has even completed the transaction with Gu Tu. The crew trained by Gu Tu has now officially taken over the fleet. This is very good news.
This means that Shen Yuelan finally has a real fleet of her own, and the Qin warriors, who have not seen each other for a long time, can finally be called upon again in the future.
However, fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. According to the clichéd plot, good news is always followed by bad news, and Shen Yuelan is no exception.
The other piece of news was about Shen Sushang. The long journey did not eliminate the trauma brought to her by Suxin's death. After she came back, she liked to stay alone most of the time, and even temporarily resigned from some of her internal positions.
Her attitude towards everyone also became very cold. Except for saying a few words when Su Yi was around her, she ignored everyone else.
According to the gossip that came back from Su Yi, the reason Shen Su Shang did this was that she was secretly preparing props to mess with Shen Yue Lan. She planned to have a good talk with Shen Yue Lan in her own way after Shen Yue Lan returned.
Shen Yuelan had originally planned to go back with Gan Yuelong and the others, but she was frightened by Shen Sushang's terrifying posture and did not dare to go back for a while.
She decided without hesitation to stay in the surface world for two more days and return to the inner world after Shen Suchang's anger subsided.
[Master, you should go back. The cold treatment is the worst way to deal with it. You might as well go back and be beaten by Sister Suchang. At least if you survive this beating, she will accept her fate.]
[Alas, I know what you said, and I know you are right, but... how should I put it, I am not afraid of being beaten by her, but... I am afraid of seeing her. After all... I am too embarrassed to see her, because I lost her sister. ]
Looking at Shen Yuelan who was almost collapsed, Shen Huanyan realized that the real problem was probably not Shen Suchang, but Shen Yuelan herself.
She has been using the cold treatment method to downplay the impact of Su Xin's death on her, but now it has resurfaced because of Shen Suchang's return. Apart from constantly comforting her, Shen Huanyan can't do more for Shen Yuelan.
She deeply regretted her incompetence at the moment, but faced with the turbulent waves in her mind, she was powerless and could only sigh in despair.
After coaxing Shen Yuelan, who was on the verge of emotional collapse, to sleep, Shen Huanyan quietly left the house, walked outside the courtyard wall, and carefully took out a mobile phone that was still unplugged. It was a symbol that the other world had officially granted her the status of a civil servant.
[Sister Su Shang, you heard everything just now, right?]
[Ah, I heard it. Although I knew her mental problems were not good, I didn't expect it to reach this point. Is it that she can't even see me? ]
[There is no other way. Su Xin is not only your sister, but also our sister and family member. Seeing her relatives die because of her own mistakes, I am very grateful that she did not go crazy immediately. ]
[Alas, yes, I was light years away. When I received the message, I couldn't handle it for a moment, let alone her who was so close to me. ]
[She is our master, and the responsibilities she bears are far more than we imagined. In fact, I know that we should not be too harsh on her, but Huanyan, you have also seen that there has always been a hurdle in her heart. ]
[If I don't help her resolve her problems, she may never forgive herself in her lifetime, so please forgive me for what I did, and please help her resolve her problems. After all, you are her most trusted enchantress.]
[Of course, apart from that bastard Bei, you and I are the two who have been with her the longest. I understand your thoughts and will actively cooperate, but I also hope that after we return, you will not go too far.]
[The master has experienced too many separations of life and death over the years, the death of young disciples, the death of friends, the death of elders, the death of lovers, the death of relatives, and this is the only separation that a person can experience in this life.]
[So, the master is becoming more and more difficult to appease. If you go too far, I will be in trouble afterwards. When that happens, I will suffer the consequences, and you subordinate enchantresses will also suffer with me! ]
[Haha, okay, okay, I will know how to handle this properly, my lady.]
[By the way, do you think that Hualiluo and the other old guys were responsible for these incidents? ]
[No need to guess, there must be some, it's just that Hua Ju and the others went a little too far that time. Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that they went too far.]
