Chapter 860: Sun Yu
These middle-aged men, some of them had only recently joined the Lecheng Spirit Police. They didn't join because they wanted to, but because the Ancheng Administration Director had arranged it, so they had no choice but to join.
The purpose of letting them join the Lecheng Spirit Police was very simple: to get rid of the Lecheng Administration Director and eliminate the Lecheng Spirit Police, making it easier for Ancheng to attack Lecheng.
After the great chaos in the world, the Lecheng Spirit Police were severely understaffed, so the Administration Director racked his brains to think of ways to recruit more high-level talents into the Spirit Police team, increasing Lecheng's power.
As a result, when recruiting new Spirit Police, they didn't scrutinize the applicants thoroughly enough. Adding to that, these middle-aged men had already made various preparations in advance, so no one discovered their problems.
There were also some people who were originally Lecheng's Spirit Police and had been serving the Lecheng Administrative Bureau. However, they couldn't resist the temptation and eventually decided to become Ancheng Spirit Police, joining forces with the middle-aged men to attack their former comrades.
Yang Haoran took action this time, and this grudge was naturally settled with the Ancheng Administrative Bureau. However, as long as the surviving Spirit Police didn't leak the news, the Ancheng Administrative Bureau would need some time to find out, at least in the short term.
Of course, since he dared to take action, he wasn't afraid of the consequences. If the Ancheng Administrative Bureau really came after him, he wouldn't mind adding a few more lives to his tally.
Ancheng's comprehensive strength was far superior to Lecheng's, which was certain. However, in the eyes of other major cities, Ancheng was just a small, insignificant place, no different from Lecheng.
In such a remote and impoverished area, high-level talents were limited. Except for Xu Meijing, Yang Haoran felt that Ancheng probably didn't have many people who could threaten him, at least not in the Administrative Bureau.
Since the Ancheng Administration Director didn't do so, it meant he didn't have such a powerful expert, so Yang Haoran felt he had no need to worry. Even if the Ancheng Administration Director found out it was him, what could they do to him?
That night, Bai Xue didn't return until dawn, busy handling various trivial matters at the Spirit Police headquarters.
The next day, as soon as the sky brightened, Bai Xue left the Spirit Police headquarters but didn't return to the villa. Instead, she headed to the Administrative Bureau.
A short while later, she tore through space and left the Administrative Bureau, bringing someone with her.
In the villa's study room, Yang Haoran sat in the main seat. Besides him, there were two others in the room. One was Bai Xue, who had just returned from the Administrative Bureau, and the other was the person Bai Xue had brought back from the Administrative Bureau.
This person was a young man, looking no more than 27 or 28 years old. His appearance and demeanor were both exceptional.
His name was Sun Yu, a well-known figure in Lecheng. He wasn't famous for his handsome looks but for his identity.
In Lecheng, there was only one Administration Director, but there were two deputy Administration Directors. The one standing before Yang Haoran was one of them.
"Ha ha, Deputy Director Sun, long time no see. You're still as dashing as ever."
Looking at the deputy director in front of him, Yang Haoran's face wore a smile as he greeted him, slowly standing up from his seat and offering him a cigarette.
"Yang Divine Envoy is really humorous. I've become worn out and exhausted, where's the elegance and refinement?"
Sun Yu responded while taking a cigarette from Yang Haoran, lit it up, and took a deep drag, his face cold as ice.
Although he had accepted the cigarette from Yang Haoran, his constantly cold face seemed to remind others that he was in a terrible mood.
However, there was one thing he didn't lie about - he did look a bit haggard, and the word "elegance" didn't seem to apply to him at all.
"Heh heh, eight or nine out of ten things in life don't go as planned. Who wouldn't encounter some thorny issues? It's normal. The key is whether you can find the right way to deal with them and solve the problem once and for all. You think that's the logic, right?" Yang Haoran asked with a smile, but Sun Yu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, his expression revealing a hint of displeasure, his tone carrying a chill that kept others at arm's length.
"Heh heh, Yang Divine Envoy, you're really good at talking big while standing on the sidelines. Are you just here to watch the excitement without lifting a finger?"
Anyone could see that Sun Yu's attitude towards Yang Haoran was not very friendly, but Yang Haoran's face didn't show a hint of anger, still wearing a calm and gentle smile.
Bai Xue, standing beside Sun Yu, felt a strong sense of discontent towards Sun Yu's attitude. Although she had some feelings towards the Spirit Police, she had no feelings towards the Administrative Bureau, and even harbored resentment towards them. Seeing Sun Yu speak to Yang Haoran like that, her anger naturally intensified.
She wanted to vent all her anger on Sun Yu, along with her resentment towards the Administration Director, but considering Yang Haoran, she forced herself to suppress her anger.
If she had an outburst, it would definitely add trouble for Yang Haoran, and might even affect his plans. To avoid this, she bit her tongue and suppressed her anger, even though she was already very angry.
"Vice Administration Director Sun, your words are quite mistaken. I believe Bai Xue has already told you about last night's incident. Since I've already taken action, I can't just stand by and do nothing. Saying I'm just here to watch the excitement without lifting a finger is a bit too much."
Yang Haoran smiled and said, although his tone was calm, it still carried some weight.
Sun Yu let out a cold snort and didn't speak again, because Bai Xue had already told him everything about what happened at the Spirit Police last night. My Virtual Library Empire (M|V|LE1MPYR) thanks you for reading at the source.
Of course, even if Bai Xue didn't tell him, as the Vice Administration Director, he would have found out about it sooner or later.
Yang Haoran had his reasons for letting Bai Xue inform him about this matter.
Since Yang Haoran had intervened in this matter and had Ancheng cleaned up in one go at their Lecheng Spirit Police, it would be difficult for him to stay out of it. Saying he was just here to watch the excitement without lifting a finger was indeed not very appropriate.
Sun Yu knew he was in the wrong, so he didn't continue speaking, but Yang Haoran didn't intend to stop talking. He had invited Vice Administration Director Sun over today to discuss some important matters, and if he also chose to stay silent, how could they discuss anything?
"Heh heh, Vice Administration Director Sun, let's sit down and talk slowly. If we keep standing, you'll definitely think I'm very impolite. If you really think that, it would be too bad."
Yang Haoran smiled and gestured for Sun Yu to sit down, who still didn't speak, but sat down with a cold face.
Seeing Sun Yu sit down, Yang Haoran looked at Bai Xue, hinting that she shouldn't continue standing either. Bai Xue understood Yang Haoran's intention and sat down in another seat without hesitation.
After the two sat down, Yang Haoran finally sat down with a smile.
"Heh heh, Vice Administration Director Sun, I'm grateful that you could spare some time to come over. I know you're very busy, and I have many trivial matters to attend to, so I won't waste everyone's time. Let's get straight to the point." Yang Haoran said with a smile.
Sun Yu couldn't help but let out a cold snort in his heart when he heard Yang Haoran's words, his facial expression becoming even more unpleasant.
His reaction was so strong because this trip wasn't something he had willingly taken, but was dragged over by Bai Xue. Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered to come see Yang Haoran.
Because, in his opinion, if Yang Haoran wanted to see him, he should have come to find him personally, rather than making him come to see Yang Haoran.
