Overturned Tower

Russell easily understood her thoughts: just don't make too much movement, and don't try to show off too much.In short, she hoped that Russell would not say something.

...Wait, sister, are you playing something new?

Russell suddenly understood something.Some things that a pure kitty should not understand.

"Boss?"

Holding Russell's arm, Delphinium whispered in Russell's ear, "What does this mean?"

"Sit down and say..."

Russell also said something in a low voice, then reached out and shook hands vigorously with the remaining two.

"I'm called 'Singularity' now," said the man who clearly had the ear feathers of a falcon but still wore glasses. The man with an unusually serious expression was the first to stand up from the sofa, stretched out his hand to push his glasses, and then bowed slightly He stretched out his hand and shook Russell, "Long time no see, monitor."

"My name is 'Redram' now," another simple and honest giant let out a dull laugh, barely raised his buttocks as if he was up, "don't call me stupid."

Because he is too huge, at least [-] meters tall.The horns on his head are huge and extremely long - the left and right horns spread close to two meters, and they can even cast two obvious shadows in this KTV room.Because of this, there was no one sitting next to him, and a long sofa was occupied by one person.

Seeing him, Delphinium froze for a moment, then suddenly thought of something, and her eyes lit up.

She remembered this man—only yesterday Russell had told his story!

Russell said that he liked to ride on the neck of one of his friends and charge around holding the bull's horns.And his friend's height is outrageous, [-] meters in high school, and his figure is extremely vigorous.When running wildly with Russell on his back, it was like riding a heavy war horse, it was unstoppable!

There shouldn't be many such giants in the class.This person should be the guy with longhorn relatives that Russell met in elementary school and reunited in high school.

And when Russell approached the crowd and came to the middle of the brightly lit room, the girl he didn't know suddenly froze for a moment.

She looked at Delphinium, then at Russell, suddenly got up respectfully, and bowed politely to Russell and Delphinium: "Hello...Mr. Minister, Ms. Minister, my code name is Touch Dream."

When she said this, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became cold for a moment.

Russell raised his eyebrows, realizing that the woman had recognized her dress specifications.

Or did she recognize the underwear she was wearing?

"Hi, my name is Qun Qing. Her name is Delphinium."

Russell politely extended his hand first - so that the other party dared to shake hands with him.Delphinium did not shake hands with her, but nodded earnestly while hugging Russell's arm.

But hearing these two names, Chumeng didn't react at all.

She just explained softly: "I used to come from Happy Island...that's why I can recognize the uniform of the Executive Department."

"Then you know quite a lot."

Russell said meaningfully: "Even if ordinary people have seen the executive department, they still can't recognize ministerial-level clothing."

"I've seen the vice-minister of the underdog before..."

she whispered.

Russell understood.

She should be one of those "idol trainees" who were sent to various places by Happy Island.Judging by her current age, she must be about 24 or [-] years old. Whether it is by the standard of an idol or a lover, she can be said to have retired.

It was quite normal for her not to know herself, Russell thought.

After all, only those who left Happy Island during this year will know themselves.And Tianen Group will not send out "idol trainees" who are so old, because it not only means that they are not pleasing, but also not easy to control.

But she has seen the bad guys, but not the delphinium?

Is it because the delphinium was not yet in power at the time, or was the delphinium too low-key?

Russell thought subconsciously, but said nothing.

Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly seemed to become cold, only the old songs on the screen were still playing alone, Chen Sha was the first to react.

She smiled brightly and came over to hug Touch Meng.Then he asked Russell in an exaggerated tone: "Yes, Russell... Did you ask your leader for this clothes?"

"My leader is her, my wife. When I first entered the special executive department, she was the minister... She took care of me very much. She also takes care of my life now."

Russell said, and patted Delphinium's shoulder with a smile: "So if you say so, you are right, I did ask her for my clothes - after all, I put all my clothes on her side. I don't know Where are all my things going?"

Delphinium rolled his eyes at him, and the arms holding Russell's arms immediately hugged tighter.

She was worried that Russell's classmates would think that Russell was a softie, so she added earnestly: "The situation is different now, he is already my boss... a leader in various senses."

Chapter 35 Lycaon is a werewolf?

Delphinium was really introducing Russell's current position.

From her point of view, Russell is her immediate boss no matter whether she is the main body of the executive department or the clone of "Sai Lun" who is the chairman.

But what she said sounded like flirting between husband and wife - how could there be a leader or subordinate with such an affectionate tone towards the other party?

When they saw Russell before, of course they had already seen the Delphinium.It's just that they still don't know what the relationship between this woman who has been holding Russell's arm and Russell is, so they dare not talk nonsense.I was afraid that I would offend my old friend by saying the wrong thing, or that I would simply slow Russell down and do him a disservice.

——It could be a girlfriend, it could be a wife, or it could be someone you like that you are pursuing.At the same time, it cannot be ruled out that they are colleagues who are on a business trip together and have a close relationship, or simply the immediate boss who wants to unspokenly rule Russell.

After all, when Russell sent a message to Chensha, he didn't make it clear.

And after touching Meng's words, the atmosphere became even more tense—for most people, the "minister" of the head office was already a big man whom many ordinary people would never see once in their lifetime.Even if Russell is very capable, how could he be promoted from a fresh graduate to a minister in just one year after going to the strange sky island?

Even that is not a small company in the start-up period, but Tianen Group, which is as famous as Sogo Technology Group.

Even if they have never left Sogo Island, they can understand how huge it is.

So it is impossible for Russell to become a minister... No matter how you think about it, it is impossible.

...But if Russell's girlfriend is the director of the executive department of Tianen Group, it will become much more reasonable.

When Russell was in Sogo Island, he was accepted as a closed disciple by a big man at the director level of the head office.They also know about this.

This is one of the reasons why the singularity is so respectful to Russell.Because he is now working under Russell's mentor.

To put it bluntly, it is "work", but to put it bluntly, it is doing chores.But even such a job is the dream of countless people... He was able to get this job entirely because of his close relationship with Russell.

After Lycaon's death, the singularity may be the one who knows Russell the most among these people.

The deeper you understand, the more you will be in awe of him.He was also the only one who believed that Russell could really become a minister.

Others have less awe of this high school classmate.They believed in Russell's ability, believed in Russell's appearance and social skills, but they didn't believe that the head office was a place where they could get promoted so easily.

And when they learned of Delphinium's position, they suddenly realized.

Isn't it because Russell didn't choose an elderly rich woman with the level of a director, but chose a rich lady!

Eat soft rice, not shabby!

Soft food is hard to eat, let alone shabby!

——Brother, you are doing well!

Everyone was very happy to see that Russell did not live the hard life they imagined in Happy Island.

They will gather here, which is the proof of Russell's affinity and social ability - Cinnabar, Lycaon, Cerberus, Lier, Singularity, Redram, their personalities, origins, and specialties are different, according to It's not even possible to be friends at all.It can be said that this social circle was established with Russell as the center.Even after Russell himself left, it lasted a year without disbanding.

"I said, do you feed the dog dog food when you meet?"

Cerberus complained from the side, and then changed his tone: "Of course, dogs like to eat! More, woof!"

He yelled exactly like a real dog without hesitation.

The young kobold raised his hand and warmly greeted the delphinium: "Hi sister-in-law! Please bring the puppy!"

"Hello……"

Delphinium also stretched out his hand upon hearing this, and carefully shook hands with Cerberus—because Cerberus was so small that his hands were not much bigger than a baby.Delphinium was very worried that she would accidentally pinch him.

Although most people discriminate against severe spirituality, Delphinium's grandfather is a severe spirituality patient...so delphinium still feels very kind to Cerberus.

Delphinium is also keenly aware that Cerberus seems to be different from ordinary people.

Often, the deeply paranoid person constantly emphasizes the fact that they are personal.Just like people who have a cow as a relative tend to eat beef; patients who have a wolf or a dog as a relative tend to be vegetarians; and people who have a cat as a relative will hardly eat fish—although usually In fact, cats rarely eat fish, and more often they eat birds.

But the point is not what cats eat, but the stereotype of "what other people think cats like to eat".

They will try to act contrary to their animal kin, constantly emphasizing the fact that they are "personal".

Cerberus, however, was different.

He even called himself a "dog" unceremoniously, and he could also bark like a dog.

After the atmosphere became relaxed again, Russell took the delphinium and sat beside Chen Sha.Li'er got up with the microphone very naturally, and while giving way to Russell, she walked to the huge screen wall and continued to sing along with the screen.

Lier is different from the woman named "Jacqueline".This petite black cat is Russell and Cinnabar's junior, one level younger than them.

She takes care of Russell and respects him as the "boss" or "idol".What she admires most about Russell is that he can always get along with anyone.

After she met Russell through Cinnabar, she has been very obedient to Russell, and can even be said to be obedient... just because she wants to learn this technique from Russell.At that time, Russell once thought that she might be his suitor.And because Li'er has a high emotional intelligence and a good sense of proportion when getting along with others, even Russell, who has a very high vision, has a good impression of her.

But after Li'er learned about Jacqueline's deeds, she kept keeping a distance from Russell on purpose - not to the extent that girls usually keep a distance from the opposite sex.It is because after the boyfriend confirms the relationship, he will deliberately maintain the sense of distance with the opposite sex, which will not let the other party misunderstand his intentions.

Yes, her "boyfriend" is Chensha.

That's why Russell thought it was outrageous before.

Generally speaking, it is considered lucky not to be an enemy after the relationship between lovers is over, why does Chensha bring Li'er as a wingman when he is looking for a new love?But even with Russell's gaze, it was impossible to tell whether she was playing a dog or trying to take revenge on Chensha by stealing the head.

Whether they want to practice "monogamy" to play routines in the middle and field duo, or whether they plan to "rely on their own ability" to compete in a fair competition... Russell is hard to say.

Not to mention the conservative Sogo Island.Even in Happy Island, this kind of gameplay is extremely rare.

But since Chensha asked Russell not to speak, he obeyed her wishes.

The delphinium on the side finally understood the situation...

... Do these high school classmates of Russell have some problems?

With a huge body like a giant, a super-big bull head with a code name called "Red Sweet Wine"; he doesn't shy away from his severe spiritual disease, but keeps showing off his emphatic teacup dog; a pair of teacup dogs who have broken up for a long time, but still The lesbians who got together to find the same new love... plus the dead social horror genius werewolf Lycaon, it seems that the only normal person in this team is the "singularity".

He didn't look any different from an ordinary social animal.So much so that he seemed so out of place among the strange people in this room, he really was a "singularity".

Just when Delphinium was thinking wildly, Russell leaned close to Chensha's ear and whispered, "By the way, isn't today the anniversary of Lycaon's death? Why did you bring everyone to such a place?"

Hearing this, Chen Sha's expression became serious.

She didn't lower her voice, but directly raised her voice and said, "I've thought about this carefully, and I'm just taking this opportunity to tell you about it.

"Lycaon was our mutual friend, and his death is a sad event. But I think that if this kind of commemoration is held in a deadpan manner, it will become a burden for everyone. It is like putting one's favorite If you set your song as an alarm clock, you will soon become disliked.

"Over time, when everyone thinks of this day, they will retreat, and when this time of the year is approaching, they will feel fear. On the contrary, it will be easy for Lycaon to be forgotten by us... It's like a friend's wedding, it's okay to attend once or twice , If there are too many, it will become an unshirkable task, a kind of entertainment to maintain interpersonal relationships like company team building.

"Although I basically don't have any work to do personally, Gouzi is currently working as an anchor, Daben is the security director of a small company, Singularity works at the Institute of Advanced Prosthetics, and Li'er is the president's secretary. Everyone I have various careers and are very busy... It's okay now, but I'm afraid I will have less and less time in the future.

"Since this is the case, why not make this day more festive. Every time everyone gathers together, you can relax. Sing, take a bath, massage one-stop, then eat delicious food, drink wine, and watch the movie of Happy Island together , this is a kind of relaxation for anyone. It is no longer 'occupation of a rare break', but a treat for me to take everyone to have fun and rest.

"In this way, everyone can remember Lycaon for a longer time. The name that remains in their hearts will also become beautiful because of it."

What Chen Sha said makes sense.

But Redram, who was sitting in the corner, said in a deep voice: "What you said makes sense, Renee. I just want to correct something...

"Lykaon's death is a very serious matter. If you make it entertaining, his death will lose its sacred meaning."

"I've said it all, it's just a rumor. The timing is completely wrong."

Chen Sha frowned and folded his arms: "There is no evidence that Lycaon has any relationship with 'werewolf'. Or, just because Lycaon's soul relative is a wolf, you think he is related to 'werewolf'? "

"Because he is a werewolf."

Redram spoke, and said in a muffled voice that made the room instantly silent and silent: "He said this to me personally."

"Lykaon died a year ago, and the 'Werewolf' was three months ago."

Singularity frowned and looked at the giant bull head: "Are you awake?"

"I'm not wrong," Redram said stubbornly, "because just three months ago, a few days before the werewolf incident, Lycaon's account sent me a message.

"He said that in fact he didn't die, he just hid it. He now needs a sum of money as start-up capital to implement a big plan. If this plan is successful, it may change the entire Sogo Island.

"I gave him all my savings... The next day was the day when the first threatening letter was sent out."

Lycaon is a werewolf—

Redram emphasized very confidently.

Chapter 36 I ask you to bring a message to Russell

Russell keenly observed that after Redram's words, the expressions of almost everyone in the room changed slightly.

Chen Sha frowned, and hesitated to speak: "Your statement..."
