Zhonglisu wanted to say sothing, but he saw Yun Ran put away the rope and put it in her bag, and then looked in the direction of 3 o’clock.
He followed her gaze. Although it was a bit far, his eyesight was very good, the kind good enough for a pilot.
"Are those people from the Special Administration Bureau?"
Trapped in the Illusion, although he couldn’t ascertain the ti, he knew that they had been trapped for quite a while.
It was normal for people from the Special Administration Bureau to track them down.
This was usually a routine matter, but now, for so reason, Zhonglisu suddenly felt a warmth in his eyes.
Once, he had been in the position of being the rescuer, thinking it was rely a job, nothing amazing.
But now, being the one rescued, and seeing his comrades coming towards them, his emotions swelled slightly sour, and he felt like crying.
However, these emotions were not considered by anyone, nor would anyone comfort him.
"Lady Yun, it’s really good that you are okay!"
Yun Ran did not recognize the person in charge before her, but seeing the genuine concern in his eyes, her attitude softened a bit.
"Who are you?"
"I am Jiang Ming, the person in charge of the Special Administration Bureau’s mobile squad. Simply put, wherever I’m needed, I’ll be there."
Upon hearing ’mobile squad’, Yun Ran showed an expression of understanding.
Having associated with Xie Xuzhi, naturally, she knew which departnts were Xie Xuzhi’s confidants within the Special Administration Bureau.
This mobile squad in front of her was one of Xie Xuzhi’s claws.
The mobile squad wielded significant power. Often, they had the authority to act first and report later, akin to the imperial envoy who patrolled on behalf of the emperor in ancient tis.
Since it was one of their own, there was no need for unnecessary formalities.
"Let’s talk about the situation now."
Jiang Ming’s subordinates, very perceptively, imdiately took the almost collapsed Zhonglisu down for ergency treatnt, leaving no outsiders here.
Jiang Ming didn’t hold back, explaining everything that had happened after Yun Ran and her team had disappeared.
"So you an, from our disappearance to now, it has been the fifth day, and the second wave of people has also been wiped out?"
"Yes, Master Zhongli’s disappearance has triggered an alert, and I’ve taken the initiative to launch Plan A. Following this, everyone from the Northwest Branch will cooperate with you unconditionally."
Yun Ran didn’t know what Plan A was, but she understood that having the entire Northwest Branch obey her, a temporary worker, was not a small responsibility.
Had she harbored ill intentions, the entire Northwest Branch would be compromised.
At other tis, Yun Ran wouldn’t take on such a heavy responsibility, but now, five days had passed.
Even if the personnel of the Special Administration Bureau were physically stronger than ordinary people, being trapped in an environnt without food or water for a long ti and still having to consu energy fighting, they would not only potentially be killed by enemies but could also die from exhaustion.
"Have people move all the herdsn and livestock within a hundred miles vicinity, and also bring the herdsman who told you that ancient legend here."
Jiang Ming nodded, didn’t ask why, and directly went to handle it.
This impressed Yun Ran greatly, as she hated when she instructed soone to do sothing and they kept asking her why.
Taking advantage of the gap while Jiang Ming was instructing his subordinates, Yun Ran ate sothing to replenish her strength and closed her eyes to practice Breathing Control.
By the ti Jiang Ming brought the herdsman, the signs of fatigue on Yun Ran had completely dissipated.
Jiang Ming’s subordinates, seeing Yun Ran now spirited, could hardly believe it.
They had just seen Yun Ran’s condition, not to ntion, Zhonglisu, who ca back with her, was already lying down, deeply asleep.
At this mont, they sort of understood why their boss trusted this Lady Yun so much. She was indeed very reliable.
"Old sir, could you please tell that story again?"
The old herdsman was initially a bit scared, but seeing Yun Ran’s soft and inquisitive deanor, his apprehensions faded away.
He had worried all the way for nothing as he had no other shortcomings except that he couldn’t keep his mouth shut.
Especially when soone was willing to listen to his tales, he could spill everything out.
Because of this, his family’s money was never managed by him, which made him feel embarrassed.
"Of course, no problem!"
Soon, the old herdsman retold the story, even more detailed this ti, afraid that he was not being vivid enough.
Yun Ran quickly found a breakthrough from the story, waiting for the old man to finish before turning to Jiang Ming.
"Please help to apply for a clue reward for this old gentleman."
"No problem."
The old herdsman did not expect that by rely sharing what he knew, he could even get money.
He quickly waved his hands: "No need, no need!"
"It’s necessary. Old sir, please don’t be polite."
Seeing Yun Ran’s genuine attitude, the old man didn’t refuse any longer. He wasn’t one to play coy, but his gaze towards Yun Ran grew even more affectionate. He thought he might send a big fat sheep to her later!
Jiang Ming had his subordinates send the man back. He didn’t expect Yun Ran to be so attentive and vastly empathetic towards ordinary people.
No wonder Director Xie and Gu Yuan were so protective of Yun Ran.
"You guys go investigate the clues about that old Taoist, I’ll go find the Taoist’s graveyard!"
Saying so, Yun Ran stood up and stuffed quite a lot of food into her backpack.
Jiang Ming thought he was a workaholic, but seeing Yun Ran’s swift and decisive actions, he even felt a little heartache for her.
"Why don’t you rest a bit longer?"
Yun Ran shook her head: "No need, I’m fine. As soon as you find any leads, let know imdiately."
Saying this, Yun Ran took out a Little Paperman and placed it in Jiang Ming’s hand.
"The Illusion here not only affects electronic devices but also affects the use of Magic Artifacts and attacks the Divine Soul.
Rember, do not act rashly. If you can’t get in touch with , let the Little Paperman find ; it knows where I am!"
Before Jiang Ming could respond, the Little Paperman spoke first: [Master, rest assured, I will definitely remind them.]
Yun Ran’s Little Paperman was quite famous in the Special Administration Bureau. Before witnessing it, Jiang Ming could hardly imagine how powerful the Little Paperman was.
Now, having seen it with his own eyes, he nearly lost his grip as the Little Paperman steadied itself in midair.
Jiang Ming couldn’t help but swallow, thinking this wasn’t just a ’Little Paperman’; it was clearly a little helper with spiritual wisdom!
Yun Ran put on her backpack and left, pinching a magic spell along the way and quickly determining the rough location of the old Taoist’s grave, vanishing in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Ming’s subordinates, shocked: Such an impressive person was actually their colleague!!!
