After stretching, Muse glanced at the hall again, and after confirming that no one was really lazy, he looked back. Then he lightly tapped the table with his unpainted middle finger and shouted simply: "Water!"
"Here comes the water." As soon as Muse finished speaking, someone brought a cup of petal honey water at the right temperature and handed it to Muse respectfully.
Muse took the cup, took a sip, tasted it for a while, nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at the person who brought the water.
The other person is a tall and thin man, about thirty years old, about 1.8 meters tall, but his weight seems to be only 120 to 30 pounds at most. He has a sallow complexion and thin skin, and there are heavy bags under his eyes. Long, it seems that it is caused by staying up late for a long time.
"Tsk." Muse glanced at the other party and said, "Franklin, is the honey water you prepared this time good? It seems to be improving."
The tall and lanky man named Franklin didn't look proud at all after hearing Muse's words. Instead, he was frightened: "It's all under the guidance of Muse."
"Oh, just know." Muse said, took another sip of water, pushed the wooden cup aside, looked at Franklin and said, "I'm in a good mood now, please report to me the progress of your work during this period. .”
"Yes." Franklin did not dare to hesitate at all. After listening to Muse's words, he spoke quickly, "Back to Director Muse, our recent work has been progressing according to plan.
Because there is no handover, there are some details that we cannot fully understand yet, but most of them are developing for the better. The manpower of various wizard organizations has been arranged. Wizard Organization Zero has completed the end of the first phase and is preparing for the second phase.
Then there are some daily cleaning tasks, which are also being processed continuously. Currently, targets numbered 27, 37, 54, 72, 88, 92, 123... have been processed.
in addition…
at last… "
Franklin talked a lot and finally finished the report. Seeing that Muse's expression didn't change much, he thought it was a good sign. He breathed a sigh of relief and let go of his worries.
Who knew, at this moment, Muse suddenly asked: "Target No. 378, well, it's the old man who sold contraband to the market. What's going on now?"
"Um, um..." Franklin was stunned for a moment, then he felt relieved and quickly reported out loud almost out of reflex, "As far as we know, target No. 378 is currently staying in Florence. The danger level is Still very weak, close to an ignorant ordinary person.
In fact, according to our investigation, it was because the other party's ancestor was a craftsman in the Black Spirit Empire and left some drawings and books behind, which allowed the other party to create various contraband items.
The other party does not know the dangers of contraband. In most cases, it is just a hobby, so sometimes it will be sold at a low price, and sometimes it will not be sold at all.
Because we suddenly took over the affairs on the East Coast, many aspects were unclear at the beginning, so we did not pursue this goal too deeply at the first time. It wasn't until recently that things got on track and things started to be formally dealt with.
To be honest, Director Muse, after all, we are not very familiar with things here on the East Coast, so I think it’s okay..."
As he was talking, Franklin suddenly stopped, because he noticed that Muse was looking at him sideways.
"Director Muse, you..."
Muse looked at Franklin and didn't speak. He just waved to Franklin and made a gesture to get closer.
Franklin made a "gudong" sound, swallowed nervously, and slowly bent over without daring to resist, stretching his neck to get in front of the muse. Then the next moment, Muse grabbed his head, and with a "pop" sound, he pressed it hard on the table.
Muse's nails dug hard into Franklin's skin, but Franklin didn't dare to move. He just stared at Muse with wide eyes and fear: "Muse is in charge, I... I..."
Muse spoke up and said coldly: "Franklin, are you smart or stupid? You say you are stupid, but you just brought me a glass of honey water that satisfied me. You say you are smart, but you always like Talk nonsense!
Franklin, let me tell you, I know that we were all suddenly sent to the East Coast. You don’t need to remind me once, twice, three times, or countless times!
Why were we sent here? Did we do something wrong? No, it's just because all Gibran's people on the east coast were all dead!
This shows that the East Coast is a complete mess! A mess that no one wants to take over—not even me! However, Director Rommel threw it to me, and I had to pick it up even if I didn’t want to! Do you understand? !
Not only do I have to accept it, but I also have to finish it beautifully, a hundred times or a thousand times more beautifully than that sloppy man Gibran, so that I can be transferred back instead of staying here forever.
So I can't allow any of this shit here on the East Coast to have any problems, everything has to be taken care of for me!
In addition, I am not the sloppy man like Kahlil Gibran. I will not put all kinds of work on myself and let myself do it. As a result, I don’t even have time to clean up after myself.
My work will always be assigned to you. You can say that I am irresponsible, but as my subordinates, isn't that what you should be like - if I finish everything, what else do I need you to do
And when you do things for me, you have to be attentive, because I don’t like people who are half-hearted, especially men... "
After hearing this, Franklin, whose head was pressed on the table, couldn't help but said: "Muse, I am not half-hearted. I really am not."
"Of course I know you haven't." Muse said coldly, "If you dare, you won't be alive to speak now - I will crush your body, erase all your memories, and resurrect you. No chance!
The reason why I am angry is because although you are not half-hearted, you can't understand me! Let me tell you clearly now: I don't like trivial matters very much, and I don't like to work personally, so I ask you about something. What I want to hear is that you tell me 'it has been solved' or ' Solve it now' rather than asking you to read me a long message. What to do? Should I make the decision and handle it personally? "
"I..." Franklin opened and closed his lips and said, "Muse is in charge, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, and I will never do this again."
"you sure?"
"Sure, very sure."
"Well, regarding target No. 378, I don't want to hear anything about him anymore. The numerous information about the Black Spirit Empire in Florent City must also be dealt with with all our strength. After all, if not dealt with properly, it may be Our identity has been exposed - although we do not plan to hide it forever, the exposure will not happen until the end of the plan. So, let’s make target No. 378 disappear tonight, do you understand?”
"Ming... understand."
"As long as you understand, let's lead someone to do it." Muse said and let go of his hand.
Franklin stood up quickly, nodded respectfully to Muse, and walked quickly to the side. He called a few people's names, and then hurriedly left the hall with the people whose names were called.
