Chapter 52 Have you considered changing jobs?
"I am Li Xingzhuo."
In the office, Li Xingzhuo sat lazily in his chair, casually introducing himself while looking out the window.
"The commander of the First Legion."
The woman's voice on the other end of the call paused noticeably before slowly replying, "...Oh."
Seemingly realizing her reaction might have been too bland, the woman paused for two seconds before adding, "I know, I've heard Luo Feng mention it."
"Um……"
Li Xingzhuo was quite satisfied that he no longer needed to prove his identity, and explained the purpose of his call: "It's like this, Miss Jiang..."
A pen twirled deftly between his slender fingers. "I called today to discuss the copyright of your game '囍'—excuse me, Ms. Jiang, what's that sound on your end?"
Why does it sound like someone is screaming and crying?
Especially since we don't know where Miss Jiang is now, the background sounds quite empty, and the screams... even have an echo.
With this combination, it sounds even more mournful...
"what……"
The person on the other end of the phone didn't explain. Li Xingzhuo only heard her say something like "shh" to someone, asking them to keep their voice down because they were disturbing her phone call.
But whether it was Li Xingzhuo's imagination or not, he felt that after Miss Jiang spoke, the screams on the other end seemed to get louder, as if the screaming person was calling for help over the phone.
This is why Li Xingzhuo recognized a familiar sound: "That (screaming) sound..."
"...Is it Jiang Lifeng?"
The person on the other end responded with a low voice.
Li Xingzhuo raised an eyebrow slightly.
This former heir of the Jiang family... seems a little different from what he investigated...
Earlier, Luo Feng rushed into his office, saying that he hadn't even had time to talk to the game author about buying the copyright when "囍" was suddenly blocked.
The Jiang family even came forward to say that the creator of the game "囍" was their missing former heir.
At first, Luo Feng thought that the Jiang family was angry because they failed to buy the copyright, and deliberately smeared the game creator of "囍".
As a result, when Luo Feng investigated, the investigation led directly to himself—
The IP address that uploaded "囍" was linked to on their return warship, and the game helmet that uploaded "囍" was the one he had bought before and was now lending out.
—The game creator of "囍" was actually Jiang Yi, whom he brought back!
The person they're looking for is right here in their own base!
Then why are they going through all this trouble, sending private messages and waiting for replies?! Just get to it!
However, just as Luo Feng was preparing to personally visit and discuss the matter in detail, he was stopped by Li Jianglan, who was sent by Li Xingzhuo.
This time, Li Xingzhuo carefully reviewed the more detailed information that Li Jianglan had prepared again. He learned that the former heir of the Jiang family had a rather soft personality and seemed to lack courage. He thought that a hasty visit might frighten the other party, so he chose to communicate by phone first.
But now it seems...
Listening to Jiang Lifeng's screams, which were slightly quieter but even more piercing, coming from the other end of the phone, Li Xingzhuo felt that Li Jianglan's information... might need updating.
That's interesting...
Li Xingzhuo, who had originally only intended to purchase the game rights to "囍" (double happiness), changed his mind and said, "Ms. Jiang, I wonder if you'd be interested in... switching jobs?"
"Of course..."
Before Jiang Yi could respond, Li Xingzhuo added pressure on himself: "To show our sincerity, why don't we let our First Legion handle this for you..."
"The result will absolutely satisfy you."
"How about it? Want to... consider it?"
