This is the person who can lead the Mu family to prosperity and strength...
Mu Chenglin's nose tingled, and his eyes reddened with emotion. He felt honored that the Mu family had such a heroine, and deeply ashamed of his previous doubts about Mu Naihua.
Such outstanding leaders are truly rare...
I was indeed too young, my vision was too limited, and I only saw things up close.
As a young member of the Mu family, my perspective and demeanor are far from sufficient; I need to continue honing them... Waaah...
The president of the association, Er Gou, was still considering how to explain to Mu Chenglin, but before she could even prepare her answer, Mu Chenglin suddenly burst into tears.
"Huh?" President Er Gou was surprised. "Why are you suddenly crying?"
“Yes, Aunt Naihua is right. Now is not the time to cry. The priority now is to focus on understanding the enemy’s situation!” Mu Chenglin quickly wiped away his tears.
"Uh…………"
"Aunt Naihua truly lives up to Grandpa's choice. It seems Grandpa saw through Aunt Naihua's resolve long ago. I am truly impressed!"
"Ah, no..."
"Does this mean the news hasn't spread yet? Please rest assured, Aunt, I suppressed the news last night. At least for today, the news won't spread elsewhere! We won't fall into a passive situation! We still maintain the initiative!"
"Oh, that's how it is."
"But Aunt, although you have put yourself aside for the greater good, I feel that Senior Mu Yu and Uncle are both very important figures to the entire Mu family. Please don't mind. If it's these two outstanding individuals, I think any price is worth it!"
"Holy shit?"
"...Forgive my ignorance, Aunt's instructions were too brief and too obscure for me. I dare not presume to understand them. Please explain in more detail, Aunt. What should I do in this operation?"
"and many more……"
"My aunt means that we should pretend to know nothing and then each family should wait and watch. Because the enemy will contact us sooner or later, we should set up an alarm network in advance. If we find that the communications or envelopes contain information about the enemy, we should find the target as soon as possible and wait to follow the clues to wipe them out in one fell swoop. No wonder I couldn't contact my aunt by phone today. It seems that my aunt has made preparations for the enemy to search for her many times in advance, so as to buy us time for the search."
"……day."
"It was my foolishness, thank you for your reminder, Aunt. I completely forgot that the Mu family has a large number of members. During counter-surveillance, we can also spare some manpower to search for them. The enemy has a large number of members, and they will have some physiological needs, whether it's eating, drinking, relieving themselves, or relieving stress. In our Linsheng City, with so many people moving around, we are bound to find clues. I will prepare manpower now to conduct a covert search and investigation of the gray areas!"
"Auntie is indeed incredibly insightful!" Mu Chenglin said, looking at Chairman Er Gou with admiration, as if he had been won over by a few words and turned into a sycophant.
President Er Gou was silent at first. She looked at Mu Chenglin with a complicated expression, and it took her several seconds to realize that this guy was probably just wildly imagining things.
She glanced at Missouri behind her, then at Xiaobai Luolian and Jiahe on the other side of the living room, and finally nodded after a moment's hesitation.
—Anyway, although this guy is just imagining things, to be fair, the two tricks he came up with weren't entirely useless...
President Er Gou nodded and gave Mu Chenglin a thumbs up.
"Hmm, as expected of you, communicating with smart people is indeed much easier." President Er Gou revealed a mysterious smile.
"This junior dares not!" Mu Chenglin bowed deeply, filled with trepidation.
"Then I'll leave these two things to you."
"Yes! I will certainly not let Aunt down! Time is of the essence, so please excuse me for taking my leave now. I will go and inform the others to make preparations!"
"...Good luck!"
Amidst the chaos, Mu Chenglin swiftly ran out of the living room, transforming into a black shadow and disappearing outside the villa.
The living room was quiet at this moment.
President Er Gou looked in the direction Mu Chenglin had left, then lowered his head in admiration.
—President Er Gou felt he was indeed getting old; he hadn't been home for over a decade, and the younger generation in his family had all become so capable…
I just always feel like my IQ is subtly a little low...
President Er Gou sighed.
Ugh.
Sister...
You said you stabbed yourself...
What exactly are they after?
President Er Gou picked up the plate with a puzzled look, staring at the meat gravy on it, muttering to himself, lost in thought.
"What a talent..."
Chapter 896 Everything is in the palm of your hand
Mu Chenglin truly lived up to his reputation as the young man chosen by the elders of the Mu family to bring back Chairman Er Gou on behalf of the entire Mu family.
Shortly after Mu Chenglin left, within about ten minutes, the captain of the off-road vehicle team in charge of security measures, who was also the security captain, delivered a number of faxes to him.
Don't ask why we still use fax machines in this day and age.
—The answer is that my phone is lost.
The faxes were stacked one by one, and soon they filled the entire dining table.
After receiving the fax, President Er Gou did not hide its contents from Xiao Bai and directly showed it to everyone.
It was passed to Xiaobai.
The white paper printed by the fax machine was still warm, and you could smell a strong scent of ink when you held it in your hand.
Those white sheets of paper contained personnel transfer requests submitted by the heads of various regions within the Mu family, as well as self-inspection reports from each department.
Most of the faxes also mentioned that Mu Chenglin had just contacted them, conveying Mu Naihua's orders, and that they had firmly carried them out and supported him, and were submitting their action plans, etc.
—In just over ten minutes, Mu Chenglin had already finished most of the preparations.
It has to be said that Mu Chenglin is really something. He had only been gone for ten minutes when he contacted almost everyone in charge of the Mu family, in order of their household registration.
"Mu Chenglin looks quite young, but he seems to be highly valued here."
Xiao Bai exclaimed in surprise to President Er Gou.
Xiao Bai had served as an admiral for a time, working diligently and conscientiously. She handled many documents, so she could understand that these documents were of extraordinary value.
These are all top-secret documents. It's quite remarkable that Mu Chenglin, as a junior, can command this group of people.
"Of course, the people who were able to walk into this room yesterday were no ordinary people."
President Er Gou nodded matter-of-factly, "Any one of them is someone that no ordinary admiral can afford to mess with."
"Huh? Those uncles and aunties?"
Xiao Bai was startled.
"Yeah, right." President Er Gou smiled at Xiao Bai. "You think they're pretty ordinary, don't you?"
"Uh……"
Although it might be a bit impolite to think that way, Xiaobai genuinely felt that the uncles and aunts in the living room yesterday were incredibly approachable and down-to-earth. Their demeanor was similar to that of the elderly men and women who used to play chess at the crossroads or practice tai chi and shuttlecock in the park when Xiaobai lived near her home as a child. So, without realizing it, Xiaobai began to regard them as ordinary elders.
"After all, everyone around me was one of our own, and we were all in similar positions, so no one put on airs—but that doesn't mean they weren't arrogant, little sister. Think about it, if they were just ordinary people, would I have tolerated them nagging me instead of actually hitting them?"
President Er Gou said to Xiao Bai with a serious expression.
This reason is quite valid.
"...He seems like a good person." Xiaobai smiled awkwardly.
"People can't be judged simply by good or bad." After saying this to Xiaobai with a smile, President Ergou stretched out a finger and poked Xiaobai's forehead, then slammed the report in his hand back onto the table with a bang.
President Er Gou jumped up from his seat: "It's all done, let's go."
"Huh? Where to go?"
"Of course we're going to find Mu Yu and the others," President Er Gou said to Xiao Bai.
"President Sister, didn't you already entrust the matter to Mu Chenglin?" Xiaobai asked curiously.
"I've never told that kid my plan. Everything he's doing is just his own imagination." President Er Gou shrugged. "So let him do his work, and we'll do ours. It's good that he's using my sister's name to do things, so I can be free sooner."
"liberation?"
"correct."
After President Er Gou finished speaking, he lowered his head and took out his two contact lenses with his fingers.
After regaining her golden eyes, President Er Gou's eyes were a little red. She blinked and shook her head: "...Damn it, I feel so uncomfortable after only one morning, which is why I hate wearing contact lenses the most."
President Er Gou reached out and removed the disguise props one by one in front of Xiao Bai. He then reached out and rubbed his face hard, smoothed his hair, and in the blink of an eye, he returned to his original appearance as President Er Gou.
The disguise props were piled up in President Er Gou's hands, and then disappeared in a flash of white light.
This is the ship equipment space of President Er Gou's ship equipment. Now that she has confessed to Xiao Bai, she no longer needs to deliberately hide this thing.
"The orders have been given, the mess has been cleaned up, and there are sycophants helping out to make their presence felt. At least the Mu family won't be leaderless. So my older sister can just lie in the house and sleep now. Let's leave. Let's go to the city." Chairman Er Gou smiled at Xiao Bai.
“…Oh ho.” Xiao Bai looked at President Er Gou subtly and agreed.
After washing his face and removing all makeup and cosmetics, President Er Gou led Xiao Bai, Luo Lian, and the ship girls out of the villa.
Outside the villa, after seeing Xiaobai and President Ergou leave, an SUV drove up with a screeching sound.
The car stopped, and the security captain got out.
It seems that the Mu family's surprise attack yesterday has raised the security personnel's vigilance considerably. After seeing that everyone seemed to be leaving, he told Chairman Er Gou that he had received news that there might be some danger in the city today, and suggested that Chairman Er Gou and Xiao Bai should stay in the villa to rest today and not leave his protection area. If there really was something that required them to leave, he could find a team of his men to act as guards for Xiao Bai and Chairman Er Gou.
President Er Gou expressed his deep gratitude for the suggestion from the conscientious security captain, but then declined.
The security captain was a key security personnel cultivated by the Mu family and was extremely loyal to them. It wasn't that Chairman Er Gou didn't trust him; he simply felt that his side had overwhelming combat power and that safety was no longer an issue, so he just didn't like having a man following him.
After saying that the most important thing was that Konoka was staying at home and that they just needed to protect her, the group left the villa and disappeared at the end of the path.
The security captain stood beside the SUV, silently watching President Er Gou and Xiao Bai leave. He then sighed helplessly and climbed back into the car.
Inside the off-road vehicle, a teammate wearing a bulletproof vest was holding a half-empty bottle of mineral water and quickly munching on a compressed biscuit.
"Something's up?" A teammate asked, looking up at the captain.
"It's the temporary head of the family's sister. She had an urgent matter to attend to, so we let them go first."
The captain sat back down in his seat, briefly explained the situation, then took out a snow-white cell phone from his pocket and dialed a number.
"Since you've already let them go, why are you still taking out your phone?" A teammate smiled when he saw their captain taking out his phone.
"Just routine, let's check the situation." The captain's expression remained unchanged as he spoke, pressing the dial button.
The call was made to the other end very quickly.
"—Beep—Beep—Beep—"
As the response sounded, the car gradually quieted down.
The captain stared down at his phone, the only sound in the car being the monotonous ringing of his phone.
"Beep-beep-beep-"
"Beep-beep-beep-"
"..."
The security captain is now dialing a dedicated multi-line landline in the villa. The landline has microphones installed in hidden corners of most rooms, so anyone in the house, no matter what they are doing, can easily answer the call immediately as long as they are conscious.
The landline is normally connected only to the security captain's mobile phone, which is used by the security captain when he wants to confirm the safety of the head of the household. Therefore, it does not receive any calls from anyone other than the security captain.
When the fourth call came, the teammate who had been sitting casually eating his rations earlier finally became serious and quietly put down his rations and bottled water.
"Beep-beep-beep-"
This is the fifth tone.
During the day... if the people inside were awake, they wouldn't be able to answer the call so late.
A sense of foreboding instantly crossed the brows of his teammates and the security captain.
The phone rang for the sixth time, halfway through its call.
The captain slapped the front seat, and the SUV patrolling the nearby area immediately made a U-turn and sped toward the villa's gate amidst the roar of its engine.
"—Click."
However, just as the sixth ring was about to end, the call was suddenly connected.
The speeding SUV screeched to a halt in front of the villa.
"…………Hello?"
On the phone, Muna Hana's voice sounded somewhat sleepy.
