Chapter 980: Chapter 466: Encountering an Examinee, Rule Contamination!

Luoyang was named for its location to the north of the Luo River.

The history of the Nine States spans five thousand years, and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say it all started here. It was a place where the ancestors of the Stone Age lived and the heartland of the Xia dynasty.

The ancient saying "competing for the Central Plains" includes this region in its scope.

Twenty years ago, a meteor fell here, creating a contaminated site called Divine Ruins, which, after the loss of seven Dragon Level lives and thirteen months of work, the Security Bureau finally purified.

However, a small problem remained.

In Sanmenxia, there was a film and television city. Although it was no longer enveloped in dark fog, the contamination persisted and could not be cleared no matter what was done.

The senior officials of the Security Bureau were worried, but after two or three years, they found that the pollution did not spread and the danger was low. Considering they had to station a team of God Hunters anyway and declare martial law in the area, they decided to designate this place as an examination venue.

On the plane, Xia Hongyao explained the origins of the Luoyang Seven Towns to Lin Baici.

"Your case, not taking the license exam and directly becoming an examiner, is the first of its kind since the establishment of the Security Bureau!"

Xia Hongyao wasn’t envious but rather proud, "Even Ying Baili doesn’t get this treatment!"

Such an impressive newcomer, and he’s my deputy team leader. Just thinking about it excites me.

"Do I definitely rub people the wrong way then?"

Lin Baici chuckled.

He knew that the Haijing division was to send a chief examiner and ten examiners, and logically, they should have set off together. However, the team leader, Yuan Jifeng, didn’t even call Lin Baici to discuss it; he just had Xia Hongyao relay the message that he should head there on his own and meet in Sanmenxia.

Such an attitude spoke volumes.

"If you aren’t envied, you’re mediocre!"

Xia Hongyao patted Lin Baici’s shoulder, "Relax, once we get to Sanmenxia, if anyone dares touch you, I’ll break their teeth!"

A flight attendant pushed the cart over.

"Sir, would you like chicken or beef rice?"

The flight attendant was averagely pretty, a seven out of ten, with an extra point possibly because of her uniform and black stockings, though her service attitude was excellent.

"Neither, just a fruit juice for me, thanks!"

Lin Baici had tried airplane meals during a previous trip to Goryeo and truly found them mediocre.

"I’ll have the chicken rice!"

Xia Hongyao put down her "Sherlock Holmes Detective Stories" book, "And a yogurt too!"

"The license exam is generally divided into two parts, the first being a written test and the second a practical purification, which involves entering the Luoyang Seven Towns..."

"Stop!"

Lin Baici quickly interrupted High Ponytail, glancing at the flight attendant.

Even though they were in first class and today there were only Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao, such topics felt like they should be kept confidential.

"You’re quite security conscious, don’t worry. Ordinary people won’t know what we’re talking about."

Xia Hongyao took over the chicken rice, opened it, mixed the side dishes with the rice,

And started eating!

"Speaking of which, don’t you want her WeChat?"

Xia Hongyao was curious, "You guys like stewardesses, don’t you?"

"..."

Lin Baici suddenly looked embarrassed, mainly because the flight attendant hadn’t left yet, though she seemed good-natured and laughed upon hearing High Ponytail’s words.

When the flight attendant left, Xia Hongyao looked disdainful.

"Just go for it!"

High Ponytail stuffed a mouthful of rice, "Do you have some mistaken belief about your looks? That stewardess has been here half an hour, running back and forth several times, asking if you want a drink or need a blanket—don’t you think it’s just because she’s bored?"

Lin Baici, not a frequent flyer, didn’t understand this.

"Being in first class means money, and being handsome to boot, getting to know her is no problem."

Xia Hongyao analyzed, "Look at her age, she can’t fly for many more years. Marrying a rich man before she switches to ground staff is the best way out!"

Lin Baici was surprised and turned to look at High Ponytail, "Not bad, Xia Xia, your Holmes wasn’t for nothing!"

"Humph!"

Xia Hongyao hummed proudly, the Great Detective Xia, "Next time she comes by, ask for her WeChat."

Lin Baici smiled lightly.

"Afraid?"

High Ponytail raised an eyebrow.

"You want me to ask for her WeChat just to check if your hypothesis is correct, right?"

Lin Baici pursed his lips. If she were a nine-point stewardess, maybe, but a thirty-something? Even with a black uniform, why bother when I could be going for the Lady Boss?

"Uh!"

Xia Hongyao laughed awkwardly.

Busted.

Little Linzi saw right through her.

"Enjoy your chicken rice!"

Lin Baici leaned back in his seat, casually flipping through a magazine.

"Just ask, I think my theory is right!"

Xia Hongyao liked to theorize, and she was too eager to prove to Lin Baici and Gu Qingqiu that she was no less capable.

Although High Ponytail often seemed carefree, honestly, having two such powerful figures in the team really stressed her out.

She couldn’t hold them at bay!

It was all maintained by personal connections.

Xia Hongyao was self-aware; if she hadn’t been Lin Baici’s team leader with the achievements from the Pusan Trip, becoming an examiner?

Dream on!

Indeed, the stewardess had intentions, but Lin Baici was uninterested.

At three in the afternoon, the plane landed at Luoyang Airport, with Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao each carrying a backpack as they deboarded lightly.

"The official reporting day isn’t until the day after tomorrow, let’s explore some attractions today and head to Sanmenxia tomorrow!"

Xia Hongyao suggested.

Lin Baici was indifferent.

This trip was entirely on public funds, and Xia Hongyao, if alone, could stay anywhere casual, but escorting Lin Baici naturally meant opting for the best.

They called a taxi and headed to the Marriott Hotel.
