Zhong Ning now understood why Ran Ran was so confident in front of Shen Yin, but he still couldn't help but be curious."I want to know which memory of Minister Gao you mobilized, Elizabeth, that made him so alert."
Ran Ran blinked and said, "This involves his privacy, I can't say it."
Zhong Ning frowned suspiciously, "Is there something shameful?" He denied it himself, "No, no, no, Minister Gao is upright and honest, he is not that kind of person."
Ran Ran was helpless. "There's nothing shameful. It's just that there are some things he probably doesn't want us to know. If I dare to say it out loud, I really don't know how to face him when he wakes up."
When he mentioned the word "disgraceful", Ran Ran subconsciously looked at the butcher standing opposite him.
The butcher raised his eyebrows. Does he have anything to do with this?
Ran Ran put on a smile, "Anyway, everyone please stop asking questions. If I hadn't really had no other options, I wouldn't have used any means on Haier without authorization. I hope he can forgive me when he wakes up."
"Ms. Alice, can you cooperate with us to remove the mark on Haier now?"
Shen Yin was indignant, "No! You have to explain to me how you did it!"
"I know your method has limitations and it is not arbitrary."
Ranran sighed, removed the hand that was on the back of Zhong Ning's hand, and spread out her palm facing up for everyone to see.
"You should understand this."
I saw a small purse lying in her palm. The embroidery on it was extremely delicate, surrounded by auspicious clouds and flying birds, but the pattern in the center was a very ordinary stone.
Shen Yin seemed to understand, "What's inside?" Seeing that Ran Ran didn't answer immediately, Shen Yin said unconvincedly: "Of course I know it's something related to Haier, but you have to explain it to me clearly, otherwise I won't help you!"
Ran Ran had no choice but to open her purse. Looking through the snow-white lining, she actually saw a few thin strands of hair inside.
Zhong Ning came over curiously, and Ran Ran said patiently: "This is my preparation measure. I communicated with the director in advance to get your hair."
Doctor Bai helped Hei Cha up and supported her. "That day, the director suddenly asked for a strand of my hair. I didn't understand but gave it to him anyway. It turned out that it was used here."
Hei Cha said softly, "Director Sun Haian didn't tell me, but if she wants my hair, she can get it."
Zhong Ning touched his head and said, "So that's what happened! Minister Gao said I had my hair removed for a physical examination, so Minister Gao knew about this all along!"
Ran Ran felt relieved after hearing this, "If that's the case, he will definitely forgive me."
Shen Yin now completely understood how Ran Ran had broken her control. Although she was not convinced, she had no other choice but to cancel the mark as Ran Ran had desired.
After she finished, she said with a straight face, "...You are quite good."
Ran Ran nodded and smiled while sitting in the wheelchair, "Thank you for the compliment."
“Don’t push your luck!” Shen Yin said angrily, “I don’t mean to praise you. It’s just that you can achieve this with just a strand of hair… This is just amazing!”
"The conditions for performing [Scene Reconstruction] are to obtain the other party's consent or to use the other party's items to perform the spell. A strand of hair cut from the body definitely falls into this category. If this is considered amazing..."
Ran Ran smiled and looked at Shen Yin, "Wouldn't it be even more powerful if you didn't need any medium?"
"My marking is very complicated, okay? It's not as simple as you say!" Shen Yin's face flushed, as if embarrassed. After seeing Ran Ran's teasing smile, he immediately said viciously: "Don't think that I will stop hating you if you praise me a few times!"
Ran Ran smiled and said, "Of course I know you hate me, but it doesn't matter. As long as it's a strong emotion, I like it. I accept both strong hate and strong love."
Shen Yin was so embarrassed that she couldn't speak for a long time, "You...you! Don't you hate me for wanting to kill you just now?!"
Ran Ran was calm and composed, "It hasn't been killed yet."
"Besides, you are pretty. I am always very tolerant towards pretty girls."
Zhong Ning stood beside Ran Ran and listened. Although he was shocked by Ran Ran's remarks, he still chose to respect Ran Ran's opinion. Since the parties involved didn't care, there was no need for him to hold on to it, otherwise this behavior would be as bad as complaining about others.
Doctor Bai and Hei Cha looked at each other and said nothing, because they knew that the attitude of the Non-Investigation Bureau towards the members of the Dawn Association was actually similar to that of Ran Ran.
It’s never black and white.
It's like Xiaonu concealed her previous identity in An Yao and entered the Non-Investigation Bureau. Director Sun Haian and several ministers actually knew about this.
But they can distinguish true feelings and are happy to see people who have gone astray turn back to the right path, not to mention that Xiaonu has never done anything wrong.
The butcher's attitude was even more casual. He never cared about these things. Even if you were fighting to the death the last second, there was actually no grudge between them.
He knows that everyone is human, just standing in different positions.
There is no absolute right or wrong.
Take him and Minister Gao for example, he doesn't even mind sitting down and drinking a cup of tea calmly after the two of them have a confrontation.
If he could, he would like to do so. He had drunk tea with many people, but never with a dying human body.
Of course, the prerequisite is that Minister Gao is willing.
Ah Fu looked at the strangely harmonious scene before him and couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"These guests from another world...are they friends or enemies?"
Armand chuckled, "Relationships between people are difficult to define in one word."
Ranran pushed the wheelchair towards him. Armand felt a sense of peace that everything was settled, even though he knew very well what he was about to face.
He has been a bystander for so long, and finally he will meet his end.
"Is it time, Elizabeth?"
For a moment, Ranran was afraid to look into those cold gray eyes that were filled with tenderness. She could feel that Armand had changed.
A complete change had taken place in him.
In this situation, is it really right for her to still stick to her previous choice?
Ranran took a deep breath and drove away the uncertainty in her heart.
That's right, she is right.
A decadent world is like a rotting person. If the rotten flesh is not cut out, how can healthy new flesh grow?
No matter how much glory Armand and his family had fought for the kingdom in the past and left behind, after so long, all of this glory had turned into obstacles standing in the way of the kingdom's move towards a new world.
Armand's very existence is one of the cornerstones that sustains decay.
There are so many cornerstones, and he may even be the most important one.
Ran Ran raised her eyes and looked at Armand, so she was right, Armand must die.
He was the man she had chosen to execute her own death mission.
Armand still looked at her gently with a faint smile on his face.
He obviously knew this. (End of this chapter)
