Chapter 565 — Going to Yunnan with You
Years of Heartflutter · Page 2 of 2
"Your responsibility? You leave tomorrow?" Lan Ling grew even more puzzled, not understanding what Yang Juehuan meant.
Yang Shuyu said that Chen Shutang had probably not told Lan Ling the details of his mission to Yunnan. She had wanted him to tell Lan Ling himself—just as with Su Ya before. Only, Su Ya had known he was going far away but not the particulars, whereas Lan Ling knew everything.
Perhaps it was because Su Ya had an event on her side and wanted to delay her return by a few days, so Chen Shutang had no choice but to tell her that Yang Ce was going on a long journey. But Lan Ling had been eager to return and see him, so the two of them had hit it off at once. Chen Shutang had not needed to say much at all—Lan Ling had simply come back.
"Yes, Mengyan may not have told you, but I was going to tell you in a little while anyway. So this works out well—I will just say it plainly now!" Yang Yanzhou said. "After you left, I joined an organization called the Mysterious Investigation Bureau..."
"Ah! The Mysterious Investigation Bureau!" Lan Ling was stunned, then suddenly cried out.
"What, you know this organization?" Yang Ce was startled by her reaction.
"I do! A while ago, they even made contact with our Blue Miao Village, wanting our help..." Lan Ling looked at Yang Ce in some surprise. "You are one of them?"
"Yes, I am!" Yang Yuting nodded. "They contacted you?"
"Yes, they contacted my grandmother, wanting to cooperate with us to deal with the Right Elder," Lan Ling nodded and said.
"Oh? And did you agree?" Yang Ce had not expected that Xia Yan and the others had already approached Lan Ling's grandmother.
"No..." Lan Ling shook her head. "My grandmother did not want to cooperate with outsiders. She felt that we were not yet prepared, that we had no assurance of being able to deal with the Right Elder. To move against him now would be impossible! But the Mysterious Investigation Bureau wanted to act soon—clearly they meant to use us as cannon fodder—so Grandmother rejected their proposal! At the time, Grandmother told me about it, and we cursed those people from the Mysterious Investigation Bureau who were going to come here..."
"Heh... I am one of those people from the Mysterious Investigation Bureau—the one who was going to your village to deal with the Right Elder, and the one leading the team, no less..." Yang Jincong said with a smile.
"Ah!" Lan Ling was even more astonished. "It really is you... So you truly are going to Yunnan with me. That is why—no wonder you said you had to go... But what about Chen Shutang and the others? This will be very dangerous! Did they agree to let you come?"
"I did not tell them the specific details of the mission. I only said I would be gone for a long time. That way, even if something happens to me, they will still have something to hold on to. As time passes, they will naturally let it fade, and the grief will not be so sharp..." Yang Ce shook his head. "I am the only person in the Mysterious Investigation Bureau who has ever crossed blades with the Right Elder, so this time, going to Yunnan, it has to be me..."
Recommendation: a novel titled *Special Agent of the Flower Capital*, by Sima Shengjie—a fine urban novel!
