I’m Really Not The Demon God’s Lackey

But anyway, it looks like Joseph has decided to make a comeback, once more aiming for an even higher locus of power, eh.

 

Phew… It seems like the previous session of therapy was really effective.

 

Lin Jie nodded silently.
After the incident with the Church of the Dome, Joseph had practically emerged from behind the scenes in the Intelligence Department to once more step onto the main stage again,

Under such circumstances, there was always a threat to Joseph and the Sun’s Faith from those once in league with the Church of the Dome that hadn’t yet been eradicated.

 

Moreover, those that Joseph might have upset in the past while with Secret Rite Tower would once cast their gazes back onto him.

Continuing to maintain the nonchalant stance of a soon-to-be retiree might actually have put him and his family in grave danger.

 

Thus, Lin Jie was elated to hear Joseph coming to his decision of making a comeback.

 

…It definitely wasn’t because his powerful ally had gotten stronger.
Absolutely not.

 

Lin Jie’s thoughts had wandered for a moment, and when he came back down to earth, he realized that Andrew was still nervously trying his utmost to convince him that he was the best candidate for this investigation.

“Alright, alright, Vice-Chairman Andrew.”

 

Boss Lin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as he rubbed his face that had gotten cramped up after smiling for a prolonged period.
“There’s no need to tell me all this.
I can’t be the one deciding who is to take charge of this investigation after all, and this is just a mere suggestion.
Furthermore, don’t you think that it’s more practical for you to be seeking clues instead of explaining all this to me?”

 

Andrew froze and fell into panic.

It’s over… I’ve said too much, making Mr.
Lin annoyed!

 

This was both a warning and a nudge to hasten his progress.
More so, this was an ultimatum.
This was Mr.
Lin offering him one final chance!

 

I understand!

Talk is cheap, I can only prove it with tangible action!

 

Andrew stood up and exclaimed loudly, “I will get to the bottom of this matter! Please wait to witness it!”

 

Though Lin Jie wasn’t too sure what had stirred up Andrew, it didn’t stop him from providing encouragement to a customer that was brimming with positivity.

 

Thus, he stood up, giving Andrew a firm pat on his shoulders and an approving nod.
“Great, you are spirited! I’ll be awaiting your good news!”

Andrew’s body sunk down as he felt an unbearably powerful force on him, which startled him.
A shiver went down his spine as he saw the look of approval on Lin Jie’s face, but this made an unprecedented feeling of determination well up inside him.

 

No one was going to stop him from exterminating every single one of those pests from the Path of the Flaming Sword!

 

“Oh right, don’t forget to have a cup of pearl milk tea next door.
Please spread the word around if it’s good.”

 

Lin Jie changed the topic and unflinchingly retrieved a discount voucher from the drawer with a smirk.
“There’s a half price discount for its launch, limited to the first hundred cups, first come, first served.”

Andrew left the bookstore feeling fired up.
As he cautiously exited, he suddenly turned toward the book cafe next door.

 

He glanced down at the voucher in his hand, then walked to the doors of the cafe and pushed the doors wide open.

Since these are Boss Lin’s words, even buying some milk tea would have a profound significance…

 

Andrew arrived before the counter and saw Mu’en who was hard at work preparing milk tea.
This assistant of Boss Lin’s who had seemed somewhat familiar previously was now even more so.

Wait a minute…

 

Andrew had a flashback as he recalled where he had seen this teenage girl.
