Chapter 252: Prison and Exit
Three days later...
In the conference room of the Night Watch headquarters in Shangjing City, a meeting led by Ye Fan was in full swing.
Zuo Qing and Shao Pingge were sitting in the seats closest to Ye Fan, while the other four high-ranking members of the Night Watch were all unfamiliar faces. Most of them were newly recommended by Zuo Qing and were Zuo Qing's confidants.
Among the previous high-ranking members of the Night Watch, except for He Xingwen and three others who had been imprisoned in the fasting center, the only one, Chen, was also transferred to the second line.
"I have explained the interests involved very clearly. Now, let's vote on whether Ye Fan, the commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch, has the absolute command and control over all the Night's Watch in Daxia, as well as the decision-making power to mobilize all resources in the upcoming Daxia crisis."
Ye Fan's eyes swept across the crowd like a hawk, and he said calmly, "The final vote begins now."
In the silent conference room, the atmosphere was depressing and suffocating. Zuo Qing and Shao Pingge looked at each other tacitly, then slowly raised their hands.
The other four newly appointed senior Night's Watch officers also raised their hands without hesitation, like a neat row of sculptures.
Passed unanimously!
Ye Fan showed no surprise at this result. He nodded slightly, as if everything was within his expectations. "In this case, I will take full control of the Night Watch for the next period of time. All personnel must obey my orders unconditionally... Meeting adjourned."
After Ye Fan finished speaking, he put away the documents and left the meeting room like a ghost. Zuo Qing followed closely behind him.
"You have already obtained the absolute command you wanted. Are you really sure?" Zuo Qing suddenly asked when they were approaching Ye Fan's office.
"There is no other way for Daxia now. Only in this way can we find a glimmer of hope for Daxia in the fierce battles to come."
When Ye Fan heard what Zuo Qing said, he stopped in his tracks and looked out the window at the city, with a thousand thoughts flowing in his eyes.
Seeing this, Zuo Qing only sighed. Now all the affairs and choices were pressing down on the man in front of him like a mountain. One could imagine the enormous pressure he was under.
"Zuo Qing, go to the central room and send a message to Guan Zai, ordering him to come out immediately." Ye Fan seemed to realize something, and his face suddenly became unusually serious.
"We must first find out the person hiding inside. Only by completely eliminating the hidden dangers inside can we ensure that no one will stab us in the back when we fight against the Outer Gods in the future."
"Okay." Zuo Qing nodded in response, then quickly walked away.
"Zuo Qing." Ye Fan suddenly spoke again.
"What's the matter?" Zuo Qing, who was about to leave, stopped when he heard the voice, turned around and looked at Ye Fan, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Do you believe me?" Ye Fan looked directly at Zuo Qing, with unprecedented seriousness in his eyes.
"Believe it!" Zuo Qing nodded decisively without hesitation.
"Okay." Ye Fan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "It's okay."
Although Zuo Qing was confused, he said nothing more and turned away.
Ye Fan just stared at Zuo Qing walking away, standing there with a frown on his face, as if he was thinking about something...
Why, he suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.
I always feel like something bad is about to happen...
Ye Fan rubbed his temple and walked towards the office.
........
Central computer room....
Lines of code floated in the air like lively musical notes. The man's hands were tapping in the void like phantoms, and a digital-style progress bar flashed above his head like a meteor.
The man wore a pair of black-framed glasses, a black and white shirt, and a baseball cap, looking like a 996 programmer.
90%...
92%...
95%...
98%...
99% ....
When the progress was stuck at 99%, the man stopped typing the code.
"Another bug?" he muttered to himself.
No matter how Guan Zai typed the new code, the progress bar was stuck at 99% as if it was under a spell, and it did not move at all. This made Guan Zai frown, and his eyes revealed a trace of anxiety. In the past three years, since his new algorithm was upgraded, bugs have been increasing like demons.
At this moment, a bright red font flashed in front of Guan Zai like lightning. Guan Zai, who was concentrating on typing the code, was startled by the sudden red font and his hand involuntarily pressed a certain key.
Ding! ! !
100%.....
"New algorithm upgrade completed..."
Guan Zai was a little surprised as he watched his new algorithm being upgraded. His expression turned strange. His eyes then turned to the red font and he was suddenly stunned.
Looks like it's time to leave...
Guan stretched his muscles and heard some crackling sounds, like frying beans.
Then, virtual characters around him flashed like fireflies, instantly enveloping the prisoner.
Wow!
Guan Zai's figure disappeared from the spot in an instant like lightning.
......
At the entrance of the central computer room, Zuo Qing glanced at the time on his phone from time to time, muttering softly, "It's about time to come out."
As if in response to his words, before he finished speaking, several green codes suddenly popped out of the void, jumping in the air like nimble elves.
When the last code fell, it was as if these codes were controlled by an invisible hand and quickly condensed into a ball of virtual code. Guan Zai's figure gradually became clear in this ball of code.
"Sorry for the long wait..." Guan Zai looked at Zuo Qing, his lips slightly raised, revealing a smile as bright as the sun.
Zuo Qing looked at Guan Zai deeply, nodded slightly, and said softly: "Let's go... Let's talk on the way."
Guan Zai followed behind Zuo Qing, feeling the long-lost sunshine. The sunlight sprinkled on him like a golden veil, as if injecting a new vitality into him.
Guan Zai let out a long breath, as if he wanted to let go of all the stress and fatigue with this breath.
Guan Zai was stunned when he heard Zuo Qing say that the purpose of letting him out was to investigate the cause of Baili Xin's death.
Baili Xin is dead?
He didn't expect that after only three years of seclusion, such earth-shaking changes had already taken place in the outside world.
Hearing that the other party had allegedly tampered with the surveillance video, Guan Zai laughed.
No wonder they want him to come out. It seems that only he can do this kind of thing.
"It's a small matter. Just take me to the monitoring room." Guan shrugged his shoulders easily and said.
Zuo Qing nodded, his steps became more steady and determined, and he walked towards the monitoring room with Guan Zai.
