"Colonel." After Jiang Fei entered the private room, he casually greeted Colonel Keno. It was completely unlike how a soldier would greet his superior.
"Have a seat." Colonel Keno did not mind Jiang Fei's attitude.
"Alright!" Jiang Fei nodded and sat opposite Colonel Keno. Then, he casually picked up the breakfast on the table and started eating.
"I heard that you killed someone?" Colonel Keno seemed to be chatting about family matters, and he downplayed the murder as if it wasn't an officer who died, but an abandoned cat or dog.
"Yeah! He shot at me, so I killed him. "Jiang Fei replied casually. At the same time, he did not slow down his eating speed.
"Chino told me about this. Although it's not your fault, you were too ruthless. According to Chino, you had the ability to subdue the officer without harming his life." Colonel Keno said. His tone was very calm. It was hard to tell if he was blaming Jiang Fei or just discussing a normal topic.
"I'm not a police officer. Catching bad guys is not my responsibility. I knew he wanted to kill me, so I used the simplest way to solve this problem." Jiang Fei shrugged.
"Alright, let's forget about this matter!" Who knew what Colonel Keno was thinking. He actually let Jiang Fei go so easily. He did not make a fuss about the officer's death.
This was beyond Jiang Fei's expectations. At first, Jiang Fei knew that Colonel Keno would not do anything to him, but he would definitely not let him go so easily. In Jiang Fei's opinion, Colonel Keno would definitely use this as a threat to make some conditions for Jiang Fei.
But unexpectedly, Colonel Keno didn't say anything and suppressed this matter.
"About the instructor who died, you don't have to worry. In this rebellion, the military and police suffered many casualties. As long as I put his name on the list of soldiers who died, his family will also receive compensation. This matter will not be blown up." When Colonel Keno said this, Jiang Fei understood that Colonel Keno was doing him a favor.
"Actually, it doesn't matter. I was just defending myself." Jiang Fei shrugged.
"Don't worry, this matter will not blow up. I will handle it well." Colonel Keno smiled.
In fact, Colonel Keno did this for a reason. Before he rushed back to the military camp, he had talked to the consul. The consul seemed to be very optimistic about Ralph and expressed his intention to put him in an important position.
This way, Keno wasn't a fool. Of course, he knew that the Consul wanted to support an existence that could oppose him among the powerful ministers under him. If Keno's family was dominant, the Consul was worried that there would be another Sheriff.
Therefore, before Keno came to see Jiang Fei, he had already thought about it. If there were no accidents, Jiang Fei would definitely become his political enemy. This was what the consul wanted. This was also what the consul wanted. This was what the consul wanted. So, Keno had two choices.
However, this idea was quickly rejected by Keno. Even if he killed Jiang Fei, the Archon would still support another person. Keno would always have a strong opponent.
Therefore, Keno was more inclined to the second solution, which was to help Jiang Fei suppress the matter this time. This way, he could not only help Jiang Fei but also hold Jiang Fei's weakness.
Keno had been in the upper echelons of the Gamma Dimension for a long time. What did he not know? Now, Jiang Fei really did not care about this matter. He really thought that he killed in self-defense. At most, he could say that he was too cruel. In fact, he could not even say that he was defending himself. This was because the officer had a gun in his hand. Even if he could dodge the first shot, could he dodge the second and third shots? Therefore, it was reasonable and legal for him to kill the officer directly!
However, this matter depended on when. Of course, it was not a problem to say it now. Although Jiang Fei's current identity was an officer, he was actually a civilian. This time, Keno came to help Jiang Fei with the retirement procedures.
For a civilian, killing someone in self-defense could only make him a hero. No one would say that he was cruel. However, what if Jiang Fei became a high-ranking official in the Gamma Dimension? If he became a high-ranking official under the Consul and was on par with Keno, then this matter would become a stain in his life. After all, for a person in a high position, cruel and fierce were not good adjectives.
When that time came, this would definitely become a stain on Jiang Fei's life. Colonel Keno could use this to do many things.
On one hand, he could kill Jiang Fei and then the Consul would support a new opponent. On the other hand, he could do Jiang Fei a favor and at the same time, hold Jiang Fei's weakness. When Jiang Fei was supported by the Consul, he would be under his control. Colonel Keno certainly knew which choice was more in line with his own interests.
"Thank you very much!" Hearing Keno's words, Jiang Fei of course had no problem with it. As for the things that Keno thought about, Jiang Fei did not care at all.
Keno regarded Jiang Fei as someone from the Gamma Dimension, so he believed that Jiang Fei would become his political enemy in the future. As for Jiang Fei, he did not plan to stay in the Gamma Dimension for a long time. His current purpose of staying here was to find out the whereabouts of the Snow Beast.
To Jiang Fei, the development team of the game no longer mattered. All he had to do was find the Snow Beast and kill it. Then, the development team would lose the channel of communication with the three-dimensional world. When that happened, the game that they created would naturally fail. Jiang Fei would not need to do anything at all.
Therefore, Jiang Fei did not really care about what Keno thought.
"Then let's talk about your retirement. I believe you do not want to stay in the army anymore, right?" Colonel Keno asked.
"Yes, I am indeed not interested in staying here." Jiang Fei nodded.
"In that case, I will fulfill my promise and find you a high-ranking position in the Leviathan Corporation. Didn't you say before that you want to work in the Life Building? What do you think of the Life Building's Security Minister?" Keno said casually. As he knew that Jiang Fei would soon be recruited by the Consul, it did not matter what kind of job he found for Jiang Fei now.
"Sure. As for housing, there are many controlled houses on Crystal Street. After the repair, they can be handed over to you. When the time comes, you can choose one!" Colonel Keno said.
Although the houses on Crystal Street were previously occupied, after the rebellion, many of the residents there died in the battle. So, there were many empty houses. When the time came, it would not be a problem for Jiang Fei to choose one.
