PDLP Chapter 196
Chapter 196
Hei Huomian suddenly raised his arms and slapped the quilt hard, scaring Uncle Nan and Li You.
"Sorry to disturb your rest." Li You took a deep breath, tried to see Hei Huomian's expression through his messy medium-length hair, and asked carefully:
"The leader of Biluo Country requested a video call with you and has been waiting for you for more than three hours. The five directors and the vice chairman convened a group board meeting overnight and stated that if you cannot arrive at midnight," Li You hurriedly looked at his watch, "there are 7 minutes left, and your position as chairman will be removed for dereliction of duty and improper behavior. In the underworld, the Ten Kings of Hell have also urged several times..."
Hei Huomian was alert and teleported to the bathroom to wash up while listening to Li You's report through the door:
"From the hostage-taking and self-explosion incidents that occurred in the XX residential area of Xiangyang District yesterday, to the 5-kilometer radius of Mingxin Building, a total of 9 terrorist incidents occurred in Shenta City as of half an hour ago, resulting in 25 deaths and 312 people injured to varying degrees. Currently, the Shenta Municipal Government has declared a state of emergency and called on citizens not to go out unless necessary."
"Of the 57 signatories to the Shenta Economic Cooperation Agreement that signed in Shenta a week ago, 39% proposed delaying the implementation of the contract or unilaterally breaching it."
"Because the group building was attacked by terrorism, rumors spread that this series of events were all created by us, so that after the incident, we will take the opportunity to launch a new series of intelligent rescue and disaster relief robots, building materials, etc. Therefore, all of our 23 industry chain concept stocks have plummeted."
"And now people in the underworld also believe that those Phantoms who control people to carry out terrorism are all doing it because your subordinates, the Underworld Emperor, are not good at managing the underworld and are seeking revenge for crimes. As a result, the Phantoms are worried that terrorist incidents will also begin to occur in the underworld, so your support rate for re-election has dropped to..."
"This series of actions is to completely bring me down." Hei Huomian wore a white shirt and royal blue tie on his upper body, but he hastily pulled his pajamas to his waist and tied it, then teleported to the study again to hold a video conference with the leaders of the Biluo Kingdom.
At the same time, in the high-level meeting room of the underworld.
"Is the Hades Emperor unwilling to leave his comfortable bed and soft pillows and stop attending court from now on?" King Qin Guang twisted a thumb-sized Tahitian peacock pearl necklace in his hand, his eyes full of contempt. "When the last Hades Emperor Song Zheng was in office, the civil strife was caused by Hao Zhao's escape from the underworld to save his beloved woman, Mirage. I think we should learn from this painful experience and choose a woman as the next Hades Emperor."
"I couldn't agree more." The Five Senses King, who was also a woman like King Qin Guang, laughed softly and used the pen in her hand to pick up the stamens of the lily placed in the center of the conference table. "It's not that I'm sexist, but males, especially when they are satisfied with power and money, will only be fanatical about reproduction."
"What a joke! Do you think those fifty or so broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted, and well-proportioned young men you raise aren't affected by hormones?" The Wheel King sneered as he gestured at his potbellied body. "But the Five Senses King is quite specific. Even if each young man looks different, the plastic surgery they do is pretty much the same! It seems to the netizens that there has indeed been only one person for hundreds of thousands of years."
The Five Senses King raised her eyebrows and glared at the Wheel King, "If you were like Commissioner Qi, with only Black Impermanence, then I would believe that you males, oh, wrong, men can control your limbs." She then looked at Qi Chu who was standing beside her, "I'm sorry, Commissioner Qi, I would still tell you the truth even if you were here. But you are an exception anyway."
Qi Chu said nothing and continued to look down at his phone.
As he was speaking, Hei Huomian, dressed in a suit and tie, instantly appeared in the conference room. He lowered his eyes leisurely and sipped the hot tea offered by Li You.
At high-level meetings in the underworld, only the Hades has the right to teleport to the meeting place. Even as a member of the Three Realms Inspection Committee, he is only allowed to teleport to the government building.
Hei Huomian put down the teacup gracefully, as if he was having a tea party with an old friend instead of facing another difficult and important meeting at the same time. "I was deploying and directing the investigation, so I rushed here."
"It took the Hades nearly four hours to deploy this..." The Wheel King glanced at the wall clock and changed the subject, "I guess the Hades must be worried about something else. Oh~, anyway, I didn't follow the example of the neighbors and didn't go in the direction of sacrifice... Look at me, what are you talking about in the underworld. You have always attached great importance to the communication between the underworld and the human world. Although according to the wishes of the leadership of the Blue Sky Country, the communication is still kept low-key, this time it can be put on the table."
“I’m afraid the Hades is actually dealing with the rumors about the future Hades Queen secretly having an affair with a young detective…”
Before he finished speaking, Hei Huomian took the tablet from Li You and placed it on the table without warning. The sound reverberated in the spacious conference room, like a wooden board hitting the foreheads of those present.
"It is not your place to interfere in my private affairs. Besides, there is absolutely no problem with the character and morality of my fiancée and her friends." Hei Huomian spoke in a steady but imposing tone. After scanning the area through his sunglasses, he continued:
"Official business. I couldn't believe the initial progress of the investigation, so I made new arrangements. In addition, I just went to visit two distinguished guests in person."
As they were talking, there was a knock on the conference room door, and a man and a woman walked in after the door opened.
They wore white uniforms with blue, yellow and black patterns embroidered on their lapels and cufflinks, representing heaven, the human world and the underworld respectively.
All the Yamas present stood up one after another and saluted to the two members of the Three Realms Inspection Committee.
Qi Chu also stood up and nodded to the two of them.
"In order to ensure that this investigation is fair, just and open, and will not be interfered with or influenced by any force, I have asked the three members of the Three Realms Inspection Committee to jointly guide and supervise. I can not run for re-election," Hei Huomian looked at the two members who came later, and finally at Qi Chu, "--but I will never allow any force that brings chaos to the underworld to succeed the position of 'Underworld Emperor'."
The light happened to reflect on Qi Chu's glasses, perfectly concealing his ambition and provocation.
