Chapter 724: 427, Two Slimes

Huan Yu had also received an invitation.

However, he didn’t accept the invitation as Huan Yu; instead, he took over another Time Traveler’s spot.

That Time Traveler had never revealed their true identity, being one of his subordinates with the best protected identity information.

The outside world also didn’t know that this was his subordinate.

That’s why he was staying at the Hilton Hotel instead of the JW Marriott Hotel, where all the big shots among the Time Travelers usually stayed.

Huan Yu believed that many others in the Federation were definitely using this method as well.

He wasn’t particularly interested in organizations like The Matrix and Red leaves, which plainly showed their cards. Nowadays, the corporations in the Inner World continued to seek Time Travelers as a strategic resource—it was absolutely foolish to let one’s identity information be known.

Additionally, he speculated that Red leaves might very well be a subsidiary of Kyushu.

The leader of Red leaves was a girl named Jiu Ran, whom both Kunlun and Kyushu had previously vied for, hoping she would join either Kyushu or Kunlun.

The girl disappeared for a few days, and when she reappeared, she founded Red leaves.

This approach was unlikely to be typical of Kunlun, and more like something Kyushu did to boost their influence domestically.

After all, officially, Kyushu only dealt with foreign affairs, so they had to influence domestic matters through a Puppet organization.

In his Bluetooth earpiece, Zard was still chattering, “Boss, what’s your disguise this time? I need to be able to recognize you. I bought a Little Dinosaur prop, and now the media is saying that anyone who isn’t quirky is a bigwig with a sense of shame. We’ll do just the opposite, going quirky on purpose. That way, the other Time Travelers won’t be on guard against us.”

“Talk less, listen more—I’m getting a headache just hearing you talk,” Huan Yu said calmly. “Keep an eye on the lobby at the Marriott, and let me know if you see anyone from the day shift.”

“Do I really have to stick to the lobby…?”

“Of course.”

“What about you, boss?”

“You don’t need to worry about that.”

Zard asked, “By the way, boss, what exactly is Kunlun trying to do by holding this Federation meeting? Have your insiders at Kunlun said anything?”

Huan Yu calmly responded, “Just a few things. First, they want to establish a Time Travelers’ Federation, elect a chairman, vice-chairman, and regularly appointed directors to govern the Time Travelers autonomously, so that everyone at least has a sense of belonging. Second, and this is Kunlun’s main goal, they want to set up the Time Traveler’s Court.”

“Court?” Zard asked, puzzled.

“Yes,” Huan Yu said, “From what’s known so far, conflicts among domestic Time Travelers are increasing, so there needs to be a court for arbitration. Also, they plan to issue new rules, prohibiting Time Travelers in the Inner World from revealing information about other Time Travelers. If someone maliciously reveals someone else’s information, the victim can appeal to Kunlun in the Outer World for sanctions. The court will sentence the leaker, and Time Travelers are not to take the law into their own hands.”

Overall, whether it’s establishing a Federation or founding a court, the goal is ultimately to protect Time Travelers and establish normal order within the country.

“That’s good news,” exclaimed Zard: “Does this mean that if I offend someone from the day shift, they can’t just kill me on a whim?”

Huan Yu responded irritably, “Can’t you aspire to something more impressive?!”

Zard said, “The law protects each one of us, obedience to the law depends on everyone.”

Huan Yu said painfully, “Personally, I see this as a way to restrict Kyushu, because as far as I know, Kyushu has used private justice several times domestically without following proper legal channels…but, this doesn’t concern us.”

“By the way, boss, you still haven’t told me what your disguise is. How will I recognize you once I get to the conference center?”

Huan Yu hesitated for a moment. “My itinerary is confidential this time.”

Zard voiced his suspicion over the phone, “Boss, since when have your plans been a secret from me, too? Are you afraid I might actually sell you out to the day shift?! Or is it that you’re wearing some kind of disgraceful prop?!”

Huan Yu hung up the phone without a facial expression, then put on his Pikachu costume and walked outside.

As the elevator doors at the hotel opened, he saw two other Pikachus inside and didn’t know what to say.

Three Pikachus stood in the elevator, so bulky that they were barely able to fit, squeezing against each other, and their costumes were somewhat deformed.

What a peculiar Federation meeting.

Huan Yu thought to himself.

Despite being a very serious Federation meeting, the style had somehow twisted dramatically.

He wondered what the always serious Manager Zheng would think.

Just then, the Pikachu on Huan Yu’s left asked in a muffled voice, “Where did you buy your costume? It seems better than ours.”

Huan Yu rolled his eyes inside his Pikachu costume, the last thing he wanted was to discuss which Pikachu costume was better.

…

“Don’t tug at me,” Liu Dezhu said inside his Slime costume.

“You’re going the wrong way,” Nan Gengchen said from another Slime costume.

Liu Dezhu said irritably, “You were clearly told to buy something nice-looking, so why on earth would you buy Slime?”

Nan Gengchen, looking around curiously from inside his Slime, said, “The Slime costumes are on sale, everything off up to 40%.”

“We’re a well-known organization for goodness’ sake, can we not be so frugal, okay?” Liu Dezhu said, exhausted.

Nan Gengchen, still curious in his Slime costume, noted, “People in Zheng City are so friendly, always smiling. It’s my first time in Zheng City, I didn’t expect the people here to be so amiable, always smiling.”
