Chapter 253: First Courtesy, Then Force
Yun Zhengchu's eyes were solemn and he was thinking in his heart.
However, with his talent alone, I am afraid that Su Ming would not be able to talk to the mayor like a friend.
It is estimated that this person is not only extremely talented, but also must be extremely intelligent, strategic, and other aspects to be treated like this.
"Mayor An, you are overly complimentary. I am just lucky." Su Ming replied calmly.
On the surface, Mayor An is somewhat kind to him and has established a small network of contacts, which is a good thing.
But the top priority now is to get out of here!
This cannot be said directly, it needs to be handled with the art of language.
That is what is called... be courteous first and then attack with force.
"I heard that Mayor An is the only female mayor among the 27 cities in Zhongchuan Province."
"You have a strong hand and make Xuanjing City prosperous."
"He has even launched policies to improve the quality of life of ordinary people who have not yet awakened. He is a role model for many people, and his talent is not weak."
"When I saw him today, it turned out to be true. He has a good temperament." Su Ming looked at An Ranling and said seriously with a smile in his eyes.
"Besides, I think you are a bit prettier than on TV." Su Ming said, with a hint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.
Women, who doesn’t like others to praise their beauty?
Even this kind of strong woman is no exception.
Moreover, for such a woman in a high position, no one dares to praise her. This is a kind of scarce emotional value.
If you can provide it, you can quickly shorten the distance between the two. This is the perfect preparation for the next sentence!
Hearing this, An Ranling shook his head and smiled lightly.
"Haha, you are young, but you know how to praise others."
"What a pity. I am an old aunt now and don't care about those things."
She shook her head, but there was a hint of joy hidden in her eyes.
Very good, she was not disgusted and seemed to be somewhat benefited by it!
Su Ming was extremely smart, and he understood one thing deeply, that is, the people who everyone thought were high and mighty were actually ordinary people who needed to eat, drink, and relieve themselves.
Don’t be too deified!
If you use common sense, you will get the best results.
Seeing this situation, Su Ming immediately changed the topic and said.
"However, I still have something urgent to do."
"I'm afraid I won't be able to spend more time with you. I will definitely have tea with you another day." He said with a sincere face and a smile as bright as the sun.
He wanted to see if Mayor An would let him go.
Is she sincerely making friends with him, or is she just a smiling tiger?
It is said that one knows people but not their hearts. Having experienced the past life, Su Ming now has a very negative view of human nature, so he is extremely cautious at all times.
To his surprise, Mayor An agreed very simply and readily!
"Okay." She didn't hesitate.
"However, there have been many assassins from Sakura Kingdom assassinating our newcomers recently."
"You are lucky to have survived these two assassins this time. You must not take it lightly in the future."
"We in the Dragon Kingdom are also protecting newcomers. We have captured and killed more than 300 assassins from the Sakura Kingdom."
Hearing this, Su Ming was slightly shocked.
The Dragon Kingdom is indeed powerful and moves so fast!
It's only been a few months since the Awakening Day, but so many hidden killers have been uncovered!
The total number of elite assassins sent by Sakura Country is estimated to be only a few hundred.
If there are too many people, it will be overwhelming and will easily attract attention, which will ultimately ruin the plan.
Now that 300 have been arrested, there may not be many Sakura Country killers left at large.
An Ranling stared at Su Ming, blinked her eyelashes and said.
"But the country cannot cover everything. There will always be fish that slip through the net. For example, this time it was late, so you should pay attention to safety in everything."
"Remember, you are an indispensable genius in our Xuanjing City." She looked at Su Ming and said seriously.
"If you have anything to do in the future, come to me anytime." She smiled and added.
This sentence weighed more than a thousand pounds, which meant that she was willing to take action for Su Ming.
There is no need to say more about the energy of a mayor.
After hearing these words, Su Ming felt warm in his heart and made a decision.
This Mayor An should indeed be a sincere person who is willing to make friends with him.
"Thank you very much, then!" Su Ming said, cupping his fists.
She sort of helped herself out.
Otherwise, this Yun Zhengchu would be really troublesome.
Immediately, he immediately urged Ling Bo to take a slight step and disappeared as soon as he ran away, as if he was afraid of staying for a second longer.
Yun Zhengchu looked at Su Ming's back, his brows furrowed and his eyes full of confusion.
He looked at An Ranling and asked.
"Sir, this person is very suspicious, and his answers to the deaths of these two assassins from Sakura Country are very vague."
"Why let him go? This may be the only clue..."
An Ranling looked at Yun Zhengchu, his eyes returning to seriousness.
"Zhengchu, I want to ask you a question..."
"Who in the world doesn't have secrets?"
Her eyes flickered as she stared at Yun Zhengchu, as if she could see through what he was thinking.
Hearing this rhetorical question, Yun Zhengchu was speechless for a moment.
Indeed, many people have their own secrets.
Even he himself has secrets...
An Ranling continued.
"Everyone who changes jobs has their own secrets, even you. If we have to take him back for review just because of the slightest suspicion...will we still be busy?"
Then, she took a step forward and spoke seriously.
"I know you just joined the Security Bureau and can't wait to make some achievements."
"That's the nature of young people."
"But don't rush into things and be too eager for quick success, otherwise you will do bad things with good intentions."
"Sometimes things done with the highest ideals can lead to hellish consequences."
"Our real enemy is the assassins from Sakura Country, not him."
"He killed the assassins from Sakura Country and made a great contribution. How can you take him back by force?"
Hearing these somewhat reproachful words, Yun Zhengchu's eyes lit up slightly.
In his heart, he felt a little happy.
This is the first time that An Shi is talking to him!
This is to...cultivate himself!
He immediately concentrated and kept every word in mind.
"Have you forgotten that the newcomer battle competition of the year will be held in a few days?" An Ranling frowned.
"You once stood out in the competition, which gave you the opportunity later."
"A genius seed with ten-star talent like him will definitely participate."
"Take him back and ask him how he can prepare for the competition?"
"This may ruin the future of a newcomer."
"In the future, you have to think carefully before making a decision on such things, understand?"
An Ranling's eyes were cold and serious.
"Yes!" Yun Zhengchu said solemnly.
Afterwards, he looked at the corpse fragments on the ground with a solemn look.
"However, sir, there is still one thing I can't figure out."
"I am higher than him in both realm and age, but I feel that I can't see through his mind."
"He speaks without leaking a drop of water."
He is now 29 years old, but in front of Su Ming, he actually feels that he is not as mature as the other party.
"This matter really makes me wonder, what exactly has he experienced to have such a delicate and cautious mind?"
An Ranling shook his head and said.
"Don't think about it anymore. From now on, you just need to remember that he is my friend and may be your friend in the future."
"That's enough."
"Now the international situation has changed drastically and the storm is coming. We in Longguo need to make all preparations. Such a genius must be allowed to grow up."
Yun Zhengchu nodded and said, "I understand."
"I will investigate today's matter separately." An Ranling said.
"Yes." Yun Zhengchu replied.
"This person's strength is estimated to be better than that of ordinary newcomers, because he has an excellent temperament." He looked at the direction where Su Ming left and murmured in his heart.
He also gave a positive evaluation of Su Ming.
Since he is Mayor An's friend, there is no need to doubt it.
It is possible that they will become comrades-in-arms in more than ten years...
His doubts about Su Ming were finally dispelled.
