Chapter 1044: Chapter 920: The Value of Life
Ricochet once again demonstrated his tenacious vitality.
In less than half an hour, his injuries had almost completely healed, which was also the first time Lu Xiang saw the messenger who was nominally hers.
According to Song Lan, everyone had their own distinct qualities, and the trait Ricochet showed was strong recovery abilities, especially resilience to beating, coupled with his courage to directly face "Corruption", creating a wonderful tale for the Church of Life.
Never underestimate such a talent.
If it were placed in the current popular works, the hot-blooded, indestructible cockroach physique, this is the standard protagonist template, and for the Oasis in the critical moment of political crisis and survival, Ricochet really did unite all the survivors like a "protagonist". Under his call, people from other cities regained hope.
The only thing that surprised Lu Xiang was that she had underestimated her own reputation in the Oasis.
When Ricochet publicly revealed her identity, the crowd was in an uproar.
An outsider from the United Government brought hope to a land that was perhaps the most hostile to the United Government in the world.
The name Lu Xiang, as well as the status of Director of the Law Enforcers in Lute City, was nothing short of legendary.
There were many folk legends that were difficult to discern as true or false, which gave her an exalted status in the eyes of the locals.
"Is she famous in the Oasis?"
The voice of "Nothingness" sounded a bit sour. Logically speaking, among the three, he was the one who had mixed in the "outside world" the longest, but if you ask in Lute City who Old Void is, probably only regulars at the Pan-Fried Bun shop would know.
Old Void, oh, that’s the one who mixed sand into the pan-fried buns.
Because of this, the Old Void Fry had become one of the local specialty snacks. After all, no matter how cheap the ingredients used by previous shop owners were, none of them resorted to mixing sand into the food.
This was not exactly a good reputation.
In Old Void’s view, this was a blatant slander.
He only made the pan-fried buns taste as if they contained sand, he had never actually put sand in them.
"What, Old Void? You haven’t even heard of Director Lu’s name?"
A regular of the Old Void Fry squeezed through the crowd, took it upon himself to play the role of a commentator, "Director Lu is the only person the Brotherhood fears. Let me tell you this, over half a year ago, Director Lu was arresting gang members in District 17, and some of them were Brotherhood members. Everyone thought the Brotherhood would go to war with District 17. But guess what? They didn’t dare to let out a fart in the end, and those who were captured are still locked up in jail!"
The pace of his speech, the cadence of his voice, "Nothingness" definitely felt that the old man deserved a fast beat for his storytelling skills.
The local people of Oasis saw the Brotherhood swaggering around, those lawless gang members didn’t even care about Lira’s government officials, but the only thing they didn’t dare do was go to District 17 to trouble Lu Xiang.
As a border city, District 17 was originally a major source of "goods" for the Brotherhood, but since Lu Xiang took office, they had to divert many businesses elsewhere.
The old man placed his hands together in a prayer gesture he learned from God knows where, "The God of Life said, ’Director Lu is the one to end the rule of the Brotherhood.’"
"Don’t attribute everything to the God of Life."
"Nothingness" was certain the God of Life hadn’t said that, "What’s more, the leader of the Brotherhood has been confirmed dead, they are no longer a threat... Old Song, don’t just stand there, say something."
"May the God of Life guide your path."
Song Lan also mimicked the old man’s gesture, and the two even bowed to each other in unison.
This act worked wonders, elevating his esteem in the old man’s eyes to that of a "promising young man", changing the way he looked at him.
"Why are you also joining in the nonsense with them?"
"Old Void, it’s clear you’ve never worked in a workplace. Speaking appropriately to the context is a basic skill for workers."
This was Song Lan’s secret to handling interpersonal relationships.
He could chat with people from any department, and even when his romance with the supervisor was exposed, no one envied him.
Old Song,
Old Song was a good lad.
Aside from being a bit weak in fights, you could hardly find anything wrong with him.
Coupled with the active promotion of romance novels spearheaded by fans like Valerian, this became an outcome that everyone looked forward to.
"Taking things too seriously is a taboo in social interactions."
Song Lan never cared about these things, even if the old man claimed Lu Xiang was an incarnation of Amon and then broke into an impromptu rap, he wouldn’t contradict him. He continued, "This is why you still can’t find a girlfriend."
"That’s completely irrelevant, and why has your aggressiveness suddenly become so strong? You, you Jinx Star!"
"Nothingness" suddenly thought of a trump card, crossed his arms, and a smile of victory appeared on his face.
"I’m off to find Old Lu, have fun."
Even though the words bore no aggression, they made "Nothingness’s" smile freeze on his face.
And after leaving behind those words, Song Lan really did turn and walk away, leaving him standing alone.
You see, this is why he was against team members getting romantically involved.
Even though the three of them were an invincible team, the other two got together behind his back when he wasn’t paying attention.
