"Shen Zhuo!" Yue Yang chased down the stairs and shouted.
The guard outside the Supervision Office building thought he had seen it wrong and hurriedly raised his hand to salute. The staff in the distance whispered: "Is that Director Yue?" "Why did he come to Shenhai?" "What happened?"
…
Shen Zhuo finally stopped, turned around and took a breath: "What can I do for you, Director Yue?"
Yue Yang seemed to not hear the impatience in his words at all, and looked at him calmly: "I heard about what happened last night. What you did was too dangerous."
"… "
"You are one of the top ten permanent inspectors in the world, but what you did last night even exceeded the safety range of ordinary inspectors. What if the backup is not in place in time? What if the other party takes advantage of your trick and kidnaps you?"
"There are many people in this world who want to kill you, and you must always remember that safety comes first."
The two were only a few feet apart. Shen Zhuo folded his arms, frowned slightly and stared at him. After a moment, he said coldly: "The one who wants me dead the most in this world is your Central Supervision Office."
Yue Yang wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Shen Zhuo: "Forget it, you and I are not in a relationship where we can show concern for each other."
"…" Yue Yang was silent for a moment and said, "Fu Chen wouldn't want anything to happen to you. It's my responsibility to ensure this for him after he leaves."
"I'm sorry I can't understand the loyal brotherhood between you Evolvers." Shen Zhuo's words were filled with undisguised sarcasm. "Why, did you come to Shenhai to mourn for Zhao Jun in person?"
Yue Yang had obviously developed great self-control through years of torture. He paused for a few seconds before taking a deep breath.
"The Central Supervisory Office sent an invitation letter to the S-rank named Bai Sheng, but he refused, saying that he only wanted to stay in Shenhai. So I made an appointment with him to meet later, hoping to personally persuade him to reconsider accepting the call-up of the Central District."
Shen Zhuo said: "Then go find him."
Yue Yang slightly emphasized his tone: "Bai Sheng told me that he has submitted an application to the Shenhai City Supervision Office and is just waiting for your approval."
There was no one in front of the Supervisory Office building. Even the patrolling guards had kept a distance from it. Only the two of them were standing on the steps, one high and one low.
"He did submit an application, but I have rejected it," Shen Zhuo replied calmly and businesslike after a moment.
"Most evolvers will experience social behavioral regression, which is manifested in a clear internal class system and the instinctive obedience of lower-level people to higher-level people. In other words, it is very similar to the ecological pattern of wolf packs. Therefore, a high-level evolver is like the alpha wolf of a population, which will shake the order and balance of the entire region, just like when Fu Chen ruled the entire central area, and after Fu Chen's death, the alpha wolf became you."
"… "
"Shenhai is the world's largest gathering place for evolvers. Balance and order are supreme. I will never allow an uncrowned king to appear in this city." Shen Zhuo said, "If you don't take Bai Sheng away, I will try to expel him."
Yue Yang was silent for a long time, and finally answered in a low voice: "I understand. Thank you for reminding me once again how discriminatory you are against the Evolvers."
Shen Zhuo nodded in agreement, then turned and walked up the stairs.
