Chapter 492
Without saying a word, Eroch tore up the document and said coldly: "Tell the inspectors below, keep your mouths tight, don't just say things without verification!"
"Ah... understood!"
The inspector clearly sensed Eroch's anger and nodded immediately.
After the inspector left, Eroch was very angry.
But Eroch didn't dare to find trouble with the Knights. As long as Varka didn't make any major mistakes, he, the Inspector General, was not qualified to condemn the Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius.
As for Gu Chen...
Eroch knew too well Gu Chen's influence within the Knights.
It can be said that the vast majority of knights in the Knights were under Gu Chen's control.
Although he was only sixteen, he was very difficult to mess with, even more difficult to mess with than Varka.
Eroch burned the document fragments with a fire and pretended he hadn't seen them!
【Kaeya】: Haha, Eroch is scared, obviously not wanting to conflict with the Sect Leader. (Hu Tao? Smirking)
【Azhdaha】: Why doesn't this little brother stand up for himself! (Disappointed) (Funny)
【Osial】: Will: Go find trouble with Gu Chen, it's best to teach him a lesson! Eroch himself: Ah? Me? (Funny)
【Shikanoin Heizou】: With Gu Chen's control over the Knights of Favonius, let alone Eroch, the Inspector General, I feel that even adding the Bishop of the Church of Favonius wouldn't be enough. (Funny)
【Dvalin】: Sect Leader: Want to target me? Come and tell me to my face. (Zhongli? Long Wang crooked mouth)
【Amber】: Thanks to Mr. Gu Chen, in the Mondstadt in the video, my grandfather's reputation finally doesn't have to be damaged! (Excited)
【Collei】: Touch Amber, don't worry, 397 has little brother Gu Chen here, no problem! (Klee? Yay)
【Tighnari】: Friendly reminder, Mr. Gu Chen is already sixteen years old, and we have only watched the video for an hour and a half. After another hour and a half, Mr. Gu Chen will probably be in his early twenties.
【Nilou】: Hehehe, I still like little Mr. Gu Chen who looks very immature. (Holding face shyly)
【Paimon】: I think you like the fact that little Gu Chen can be manipulated by you at will?! (Nahida? Pointing fingers)
【Nahida】:! So that's what the female fans of the Great Sage think?! (Dull)
【Kirara】: Hehehe...
【Nilou】: Hehehe...
【Kamisato Ayaka】: I can no longer look directly at you female fan leaders. (Covering face)
Knights of Favonius, Grand Master's office.
"Haha, I heard that Eroch's face was uncertain, as if he wanted to be angry but couldn't." Varka laughed heartily after hearing it.
Gu Chen thought for a moment and said: "This is a symptom of constipation. Should we write a care letter to him to care about his physical condition?"
Varka was stunned when he heard this, then raised his hand and pointed at Gu Chen: "You kid, this is a heart-stabbing remark. You must be trying to piss Eroch to death!"
"Isn't that just right?"
Gu Chen shrugged and said indifferently: "It's just right to change someone for the position of Inspector General!"
"It's just that my power hasn't reached the point of appointing the Inspector General. Otherwise, could Eroch still sit in that position? I would have sent him to the front line to fight monsters long ago. Why keep something that can't even restrain its subordinates in a high position?"
Gu Chen's undisguised words made Varka admire him very much.
Gu Chen could say these things without any scruples, of course, relying on his personal strength and personal charm in the Knights.
Varka had the latter, but the former was insufficient, at least not to Gu Chen's powerful level, and his thinking hadn't changed too much, not as impulsive as a young person.
"Back to the point, the reconnaissance squad is now leaderless, what should we do?" Varka's expression was slightly serious, looking at Gu Chen and asking.
Gu Chen also began to think.
The members of the reconnaissance squad had a high degree of dependence on the old man.
Although they were also elites and had cultivated the Body-Refining Arts, each of them was extraordinary.
But in terms of reconnaissance, even after following the old man for so long, they hadn't learned much experience. It was really because the old man's attainments in this area were too high.
Gu Chen had personally scouted with the old man and could understand the feeling of easily completing tasks.
Simply put, going on missions with the old man and without the old man were two different difficulties, so it was not hard to understand the situation of the knights.
After thinking for a long time, Gu Chen said firmly: "The reconnaissance squad must be preserved. We always need a pair of eyes moving in the wilderness. Otherwise, if we only realize when the monsters are at the city gates, it will be too late."
Varka nodded deeply, waiting for the following.
Gu Chen thought while saying: "As for the candidate for the reconnaissance squad captain... little Amber is still too young and needs to be tempered for a few years... The current choice is either to pick experienced people from the Knights, or to drive the ducks to the shelves and learn while going on missions."
Varka suddenly said: "How about Kaeya?"
"Isn't he serving as Chief of General Affairs? I assigned part of Jean's work to him." Gu Chen raised an eyebrow.
"Diluc is also quite free when he has no missions." Varka had a subtle smile on his face.
Gu Chen suddenly realized, then said: "Makes sense. It's time to let Diluc come into contact with the high-level officials. There will be many places where he is needed later. Let him temporarily replace the Chief of General Affairs, and Kaeya will be the acting reconnaissance squad captain!"
"Is it decided so happily?"
"I'll write the report, you sign it!"
【Diluc】:...
【Kaeya】: Transferred in just a few words. (Shrugging)
【Amber】: Is it really appropriate to let Kaeya be the acting reconnaissance squad captain? Won't the knights be corrupted by Kaeya?! (Worried)
【Kaeya】: You should be happy that the reconnaissance squad can be preserved! As for whether I will corrupt them... haha, what are you thinking? How could I be that kind of person? (Funny)
【Venti】: You can tell you are not a good person from the expression you sent.
【Azhdaha】: Indeed!
【Nilou】: Speaking of which, I haven't seen Miss Barbara in the video yet! (Nahida? Curious)
【Collei】: Don't mention Miss Barbara, little brother Gu Chen and Miss Jean haven't spent much time together either! (Complaining)
【Jean】: For work, it is normal to be busy. (Nodding)
【Barbara】: Um... at this time, I should be learning how to be a good deaconess, right? (Barbara? Panicked)
【Rosaria】: Forgot.
After finishing the report and signing it.
Varka got up and said: "I'm going out for a turn."
"Your frequency of going out recently is a bit high. Has the iron tree bloomed? Have you found a woman you like?" Gu Chen teased.
"What nonsense!"
Varka curled his lips and then said: "Recently, I saw a human child near Wolvendom who seemed to be living with a pack of wolves. I went twice more but didn't meet him. This time I decided to go find him and see the child's situation."
Gu Chen shook his head when he heard this: "I thought you were in love. Got it, you go."
Varka paused.
"In love?"
"Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered one thing."
Varka looked at Gu Chen with burning eyes.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Chen felt a bit hairy being looked at by Varka.
"There is one thing you might not know. Lady Frederica intends to let you and Jean get closer. Do you understand what that means?" Varka asked with a smile.
Gu Chen was stunned, then said: "It's not the time yet, right?"
"Oh? Does that mean it will be the time in two years?"
Varka raised an eyebrow, then said with a smile: "Oh, I understand. After all, Jean is only fourteen now, so it's normal to have no interest. Wait two more years until the little girl grows up, and you will be interested."
"What kind of talk is this? It doesn't sound like something a Grand Master can say." Gu Chen curled his lips.
"But it is indeed something Varka would say." Varka's smile didn't stop.
"Since it's still early, I advise you to set off as soon as possible," Gu Chen said indifferently.
Varka smiled and said: "Okay, then I'll go first and come back later."
After Varka left, Gu Chen took the order he had just signed and returned to his office.
Young Jean looked up from a pile of documents at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen put the document on her desk and said: "Newly signed order, send it down later."
Jean picked it up and looked at it, then nodded without asking more: "I understand."
Then, Jean picked up one from the many documents and said seriously: "This is the Snezhnayan diplomatic document sent suddenly today. Snezhnaya seems to know about the changes in the Knights, and they seem to want to send envoys to communicate and learn."
Gu Chen took the document and looked at it. There was indeed the official seal of the Fatui and the signature of the Fatui Harbinger on it.
"The Second of the Fatui Harbingers, Dottore?" Gu Chen sneered.
"It feels like they are coming with ill intentions," Jean said softly.
"How do you know they are coming with ill intentions?" Gu Chen asked with interest.
