My Job Is Quite Unique Chapter 86

Chapter 86 Mess (Please give me your monthly ticket!)

Announce what?

Yuan Chenyang instinctively speculated, looking at Zhang Hongbo’s complacent appearance, it seemed not to be good news?

But he didn’t seem to have any dirt on him?

“I’ll do it,” Gu Bing stood up and said calmly, “By Judge Xia Hanshi’s decision, Zhang Hongbo’s City Lord position is to be removed? And temporarily taken over by Supervising Officer Yuan Chenyang.”

My position removed? He actually… Yuan Chenyang subconsciously thought, then his face suddenly stiffened, and then changed dramatically, his voice dry: “Remove Zhang Hongbo’s City Lord position?”

“That’s right, congratulations, City Lord Yuan.” Gu Bing nodded.

“Congratulations.” Zhang Hongbo also said.

“Ha…” Yuan Chenyang stared at Zhang Hongbo, and then burst into hearty laughter, “You, you, you were really good at pretending. When I walked in, I saw you look like everything was under control, and I thought something was going to happen to me.”

“I didn’t expect it to be you who ran into trouble, haha…”

“It’s already happened, and I’ve accepted it. Am I supposed to walk around with a long face?” Zhang Hongbo said indifferently.

“Stop pretending.” Although Yuan Chenyang still didn’t know what was going on, he felt a surge of suppressed anger erupting, and laughed heartily:

“I know you too well. How many years have we been partners? Do I need to tell you about your control freak nature? The Supervision Department is full of your people!”

Yang Yan and Gu Bing remained silent. As high-ranking officials in Nanfeng, there was bound to be some friction between them.

“Pretending to maintain an appearance of dignity, but secretly wiping away tears somewhere.” Yuan Chenyang was in a very good mood, even touching his smooth head, “Old Zhang, what happened? You were removed from the City Lord’s position, did you become corrupt?”

Zhang Hongbo’s face turned grim, and he said coldly, “I misjudged people. Zhang Feng colluded with the Heretic God Cult.”

“Heretic God Cult?” The teasing on Yuan Chenyang’s face faded, replaced by seriousness. “Misjudged people? But he’s your younger brother.”

“Old Xia has basically confirmed that Zhang Hongbo is clean,” Gu Bing added.

“Oh, so that’s why he’s still alive. Old Xia is merciful.”

The position of City Lord fell into his lap, and Yuan Chenyang was in a very good mood. Under normal circumstances, the City Lord position would not have been his.

Now, although it was merely “acting,” once this news reached Ying Feng,

His teacher would naturally not let him step down, and his impression of Xia Hanshi also improved significantly.

Indeed, it was all misinformation. Judge Xia still handled cases impartially; there was no reason for such a bad reputation.

When Xia Hanshi was mentioned, the expressions of the three became subtle.

Zhang Hongbo’s originally unsightly face relaxed. He glanced at the triumphant Yuan Chenyang and couldn’t help but say, “City Lord Yuan, you hide your true abilities very well.”

Yuan Chenyang frowned. “What do you mean? Speak frankly, don’t be evasive.”

“Su Chen is truly a good sapling,” Zhang Hongbo lamented.

“What do you mean?” When Su Chen was mentioned, Yuan Chenyang’s face immediately turned stern. “Are you threatening me?”

“Where did you get that idea? How dare I…” Zhang Hongbo frowned, then slowly said, “How dare I threaten Judge Xia’s student…”

“Judge Xia’s student?” Yuan Chenyang’s face froze, then he suddenly realized something. He quickly looked at Yang Yan and Gu Bing, who awkwardly turned their heads away.

Yuan Chenyang’s heart sank to the bottom. My great student, it seems, has truly been stolen.

Seeing Yuan Chenyang’s somber face, Zhang Hongbo’s mood improved greatly.

“Old Xia has already taken Su Chen as his student?”

Perhaps unwilling, Yuan Chenyang still wanted to truly confirm it.

“Indeed.” A voice suddenly came from behind. Yang Yan and Gu Bing immediately stood up and said, “Old Xia.”

Yuan Chenyang, with a face that was neither crying nor smiling, turned his head around, “Old Xia…”

“You look like your teacher died, but your third sibling is still alive,” Xia Hanshi said casually.

Yuan Chenyang immediately composed himself, and couldn’t help but say, “Old Xia, Su Chen… I discovered him first.”

“I know.” Xia Hanshi nodded, taking it for granted. “So, you will become the City Lord of Nanfeng without any hindrance. Otherwise, your teacher wanting to make this happen would have to pay a price.”

“But…” Yuan Chenyang struggled, “Is it really appropriate for you to do this?”

Xia Hanshi glanced at him in surprise and said directly, “Following me has more prospects than following you. If he followed you, he would be the student of a student of a Judge, but following me, he is a student of a Judge. The resources and status are completely different.”

“Moreover, don’t you have many teachers as well? I’m only his second teacher, and he’s not disowning you.”

“Besides, ask your teacher if he agrees to this deal.”

Yuan Chenyang was speechless. It was indeed true that everyone had new teachers at different stages of growth, who would guide them for a period.

Moreover, knowing his teacher, he would probably agree.

“I hope you will treat him well.” Yuan Chenyang reluctantly bowed his head.

“Nonsense!” Xia Hanshi was displeased: “He’s my student, of course I’ll treat him well, do I need you to tell me that?”

The Judge grew impatient: “Alright, since you’re back, Yang Yan, tell him what’s happened recently and let him take over.” Yang Yan, who was like a wooden post, then stepped forward and carefully recounted.

Yuan Chenyang’s already not-so-good complexion gradually turned pale.

“The Heituo Priest has even arrived? What exactly is in Nanfeng City?”

“What, the Heituo Statue?! They’re preparing to summon the Abyssal God Vessel!”

“Old Xia made a move, how did he still manage to escape…” Yuan Chenyang paused, swallowing the latter half of his sentence.

What a mess this is.

If he doesn’t handle it well, Nanfeng City will be ruined, and what good is being the City Lord then?

Zhang Hongbo’s mood improved even more as he watched Yuan Chenyang’s changing expression.

“Don’t worry, if anything goes wrong, just blame Zhang Hongbo, and you won’t be implicated.” Xia Hanshi said this bluntly, “After all, his younger brother is largely to blame.”

“I’ll help you for Su Chen’s sake.”

Zhang Hongbo’s face instantly stiffened.

Yuan Chenyang was slightly stunned, his state of mind subtle. He hadn’t expected Xia Hanshi to be so thoughtful.

Was it because Su Chen was so much to his liking that he loved him for Su Chen’s sake?

Is a teacher valued by his student? Why does this feel so strange…

Yuan Chenyang quickly got to work, reviewing the previous documents.

Xia Hanshi also disappeared without a trace.

“…Transfer Su Chen to the North City Sub-bureau…” The new City Lord Yuan quickly found a transfer order, and immediately looked up and shouted in anger: “Zhang Hongbo, you’re going too far, who allowed you to use Su Chen as bait?”

“So, I paid the price.” Zhang Hongbo reacted calmly, gazing deeply at Yuan Chenyang: “Old Yuan, you truly hide your abilities well, double Crimson Gold, just leaving it in Nanfeng without a care.”

The furious Yuan Chenyang froze. Double… Crimson Gold?

By the time he realized it, Zhang Hongbo had already left, his voice faintly echoing from the doorway, “Go inside, City Lord Yuan, he’s waiting for you.”

The next moment, Su Chen walked in.

Yuan Chenyang’s face became complex, and he hesitated to speak.

Su Chen felt the atmosphere was a bit subtle, and couldn’t help but say, “Teacher, I’m sorry…”

“Sigh.” Yuan Chenyang sighed, “It’s my incompetence, I couldn’t protect you.”

Uh… Su Chen was slightly stunned, he still wanted to apologize to Yuan Chenyang.

Yuan Chenyang got up from behind the desk, the door closed automatically, and he said with a wry smile, “I didn’t expect it to be Old Xia who came this time. You’ve had a tough time.”

Taking over the position of City Lord made Yuan Chenyang feel as if he had sold Su Chen to get everything.

“Not at all, I think Old Xia is a good person.” Su Chen felt that others had a misunderstanding of Old Xia, perhaps because Old Xia’s way of doing things was indeed unconventional.

Yuan Chenyang couldn’t help but ponder, also thinking: “I’ve been away from Ying Feng for a long time, and most of the news about this Judge is just hearsay. Perhaps it’s just a misunderstanding.”

“Perhaps, for you, it’s not a bad thing; your future will be even broader.”

Su Chen immediately said seriously, “Teacher, I will never forget everything you’ve done.”

Yuan Chenyang was filled with joy, “I didn’t misjudge you.”

Then he warned, “Remember, you can learn from Old Xia in other aspects, but when it comes to his style of conduct, try to avoid it.”

“Understood.” Su Chen nodded firmly.

Yuan Chenyang was not someone who dwelled on things too much, so he quickly started chatting with Su Chen, and couldn’t help but complain:

“That bastard Zhang Hongbo left me with such a mess. That priest and the Heituo statue are still on the loose. I’m afraid that one day, darkness will fall, and Heituo will simply descend.”

“Don’t worry, they will definitely be found,” Su Chen comforted.

“I hope so…” Yuan Chenyang prayed, then continued, “I’m going to take over as City Lord. What do you think about Du Jingming taking over the position of Supervising Minister?”

Du Jingming, who was Du Yu’s father, Su Chen understood and said, “You make the decision.”

Yuan Chenyang wasn’t actually asking him, but Xia Hanshi.

But Su Chen pondered for a moment, “Since Du Jingming is going to be the minister, does that mean there’s an open deputy minister position?”

“What do you mean?” Yuan Chenyang asked.

“Brother Sun… Sun Tai.” Su Chen said, “Sun Tai, despite the pressure from Zhang Hongbo, provided the clues to the General Commercial Warehouse.”

Sun Tai himself couldn’t bring up this achievement, so Su Chen naturally took care of it.

“So that’s how it is.” Yuan Chenyang had no objections, as that was also his old subordinate. He mused, “Sun Tai is also a veteran, and although he’s still a bit lacking, with your guarantee, it shouldn’t be a problem.”
