Chapter 649 Headquarters Token?
If these people were really sent by headquarters, and they left just like that, headquarters definitely wouldn't send anyone else. The consequences of being isolated and helpless were unimaginable.
The people below were muttering, not knowing what they were saying. After a while, the man who had turned back looked at Yuan Muye and said, "Alright, I'll go in."
The man's demeanor showed that he was their leader.
Yuan Muye didn't ask anyone to open the gate, but went down himself to greet him.
No matter what, he had to show proper respect.
After opening the city gate and letting the man in, Yuan Muye immediately closed it.
"I'm really sorry, we were forced to do this. There have been too many evil ghosts mixing into Yun City recently. I hope you can understand," Yuan Muye explained to the man.
The man glanced at Yuan Muye coldly and said, "If you were really that careful, you wouldn't have let evil ghosts in."
Hearing this, Yuan Muye immediately became unhappy. This man was relying on his status to say such unpleasant things!
If it were an ordinary person, Yuan Muye would have couldn't help but argue with him.
"This was our oversight. The main reason is that those evil ghosts are too high-level. They possess living people, and we can't detect them at all," Yuan Muye said truthfully.
He originally thought that as long as he explained the reason, the man would understand them. But he didn't expect the man to say directly, "That only shows that your strength is not enough."
Yuan Muye couldn't help but roll his eyes at the man. However, the man had the qualifications to be so arrogant, because he had already reached the mid-stage of Shuntian realm, which was a big step higher than Yuan Muye.
"You're right, otherwise, we wouldn't have requested support from headquarters," Yuan Muye still responded with a smile.
Since the man was a guest, Yuan Muye definitely couldn't argue with him right now.
Yuan Muye led the man to the lounge and asked people to bring pastries and tea.
He was still doing a good job in this regard.
After the man ate the pastries and drank the tea, he looked at Yuan Muye and asked, "How do you want me to prove my identity?"
"You are from the Supernatural Bureau, you should have the mark of the Supernatural Bureau, right?"
Yuan Muye didn't believe that so many of them had lost all their marks.
The man looked at him calmly and said, "What if I said no?"
"Don't joke with me, how could you not have it?" Yuan Muye's tone was still very calm at this moment.
The man didn't speak. After a long time, he took out a token from his body and placed it in front of Yuan Muye.
"Is this okay?"
Yuan Muye looked at the token. It was black and had three words printed on it: Ling Yi Ju (Supernatural Bureau).
Because the three words were plated with a layer of gold, they looked particularly conspicuous.
Yuan Muye had never seen such a token before and looked at the man curiously, asking, "Why haven't I seen such a token after being in the Supernatural Bureau for so long?"
"People of your low level naturally don't have the opportunity to see this token. Only high-level people in the Supernatural Bureau have it," the man said with some pride.
This made Yuan Muye even more unhappy. What did he mean by low-level people?
They were all from the Supernatural Bureau, who was more noble than whom?
Yuan Muye still couldn't determine whether this was a token from the Supernatural Bureau. In the end, he had no choice but to call Director Chen to inquire about this matter.
Although he wasn't sure if Director Chen knew, Director Chen's status was relatively high.
The call was quickly connected, and Director Chen's greetings came from the phone.
"Deputy Director Yuan, how is your side now?"
Yuan Muye sighed helplessly and said, "Director Chen, it's a long story. I don't even know what to do."
"Ah? You called me so late, is there anything you need my help with?" Director Chen asked bluntly.
Director Chen also knew about the situation in Yun City, but he couldn't leave Jiang City.
He originally wanted to send someone over, but Yuan Muye didn't agree, saying that evil ghosts had already mixed into Yun City, and Jiang City might also have them. Therefore, the top priority was to protect the stability of Jiang City.
Yun City was important, but Jiang City was even more important.
"Yes, I want to ask you something."
Yuan Muye inquired about the token.
Director Chen was silent for a while, and then said after a long time, "I have heard that headquarters uses tokens for entry and exit. Although I have been there before, I have never seen it. You have really stumped me. But then again, why don't you directly contact the people at headquarters?"
Yuan Muye sighed helplessly, "We have contacted them, but we haven't been able to reach them yet."
It was quite frustrating to have something happen at this critical moment, but there was nothing he could do.
Besides waiting, they had to find their own way to verify the identities of these people.
Director Chen was stunned and said, "Don't you even know the names of the people sent by headquarters?"
"No, we only received a message saying that people have been sent down."
Yuan Muye was also quite depressed about this.
If headquarters had arranged things more clearly, they wouldn't be so at a loss.
Director Chen thought for a moment and said, "I do have a way. When I went to headquarters before, I met a person. He told me that their high-level people have a secret code. As long as he can match it, he is from headquarters."
After that, Director Chen told Yuan Muye the secret code.
Yuan Muye happily thanked him and hung up the phone.
The man saw that he had finished the call and asked lightly, "How is it? Did you find out anything?"
"No, but I have other ways to verify your identity," Yuan Muye said, staring into the man's eyes.
Speaking of which, he was still very nervous at this moment. If the man in front of him couldn't match the secret code, there would inevitably be a big battle.
The man's realm was so much higher than him. If they really fought, he wouldn't gain any advantage.
"Oh? Tell me!" the man said curiously.
Yuan Muye hesitated for a moment before saying, "One, two, three, four, five, I want to fight a tiger."
The man was stunned, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. After a long while, he reacted and looked at Yuan Muye with a puzzled expression, "How do you know our internal secret code?"
"What's the next sentence?" Yuan Muye was still a little excited when he saw that the man knew it was a secret code. If he could match it, then he wouldn't have so much trouble.
"I am the tiger."
The man blurted out.
Hearing this, Yuan Muye's hanging heart was finally relieved, because the man had matched the secret code.
