Leaving Sakaki's office.
According to Sakaki, Aoki needed to go find Kage and Ansa first.
But when they met before, Kage and Ansa were not there.
It seemed that even the two of them had to be fully prepared for this mission.
After a little hesitation, Aoki decided to find the two of them first. After understanding the specific situation, he would make plans.
Sakaki's last meaningful look made Aoki feel that there was something he needed to pay attention to.
But Sakaki didn't say it, so Aoki had to figure it out himself.
He took out his communicator and dialed Kage's number.
After getting the location of the two of them, Aoki directly walked over.
They were originally in the Rocket Team's base, but the two of them were discussing the specific details of this mission, so they didn't meet Aoki together with Sakaki.
Kage was already prepared for Aoki to become a cadre this time.
Although the speed was a bit fast, it wasn't beyond his expectations.
In a year, from a little guy struggling to survive on the trial island to a high-ranking cadre of the Rocket Team, it would be a lie to say that he wasn't surprised.
But Kage was quite pleased that his unintentional investment could pay off so quickly.
Although Aoki may have just entered the Heavenly King Stage and wouldn't bring them much substantial help.
But after all, he was already a Heavenly King Stage.
At the most basic level, the two of them were already on the same level.
And the current Aoki was no longer a person who could be easily manipulated.
How the two of them should deal with each other when they meet again was a very important question.
If it wasn't handled well, and they couldn't get used to the change in attitude and status brought by the change in identity, they might even end up on opposite sides.
This was not impossible.
He went directly to the office where Kage and Ansa were.
He saw the two of them sitting on the sofa.
There was a map spread out in front of them, and they were drawing on the map. Obviously, they were making some plans for this mission to capture the three divine birds.
Aoki's arrival made the two of them put down what they were doing.
Kage saw Aoki and smiled.
"Lord Shadow, Lord Dark." Aoki called out.
Although his tone was not as respectful as before, the smile on Ying's face became more natural, and Dark nodded calmly.
Aoki was now a member of the Rocket Team. In terms of position, he was on the same level as the two of them.
Even if he didn't address him as' Lord ', the two of them couldn't say anything.
However, this would make Shadow and Darkness feel a little uncomfortable.
They wouldn't say it out loud, but that didn't mean they didn't think so in their hearts.
Now that Aoki had suddenly lowered himself, the two of them had a whole new level of respect for him.
Just like that, the relationship between the three of them became closer.
In fact, they were even closer than before. At least on the surface, the three of them were of the same rank, and there was no longer a superior and subordinate relationship.
Ying waved her hand and said, "Don't call me Lord in the future. We are all cadres of the Rocket Team now. You can just call me by my name."
Dark also nodded in agreement.
Aoki had shown his attitude, and of course, they couldn't always be so self-righteous.
He was growing so fast, and they believed that it wouldn't be long before the three of them were on the same level. At that time, they would take advantage of him, but what if Aoki's strength surpassed theirs in the future?
They wanted to vomit everything out.
It was better to be straightforward now.
Aoki, who was sitting on the sofa, pondered for a moment. He didn't refuse and nodded in agreement.
"The leader should have told you a little about this mission, right?" The three of them once again talked about this mission.
Aoki nodded. "He told me a little, but I'll ask you guys if I have any questions. I don't know the specific details yet."
Hearing Aoki's words, Ying and Dark looked at each other.
"Then you don't know about the Jinchuan family, right?" Ying asked.
"Jinchuan family?" Aoki's brows gradually furrowed.
He had heard of this family before. It was a big family in the Guandong region, but he had never come into contact with them.
"I've heard of them, but I've never come into contact with them," Aoki said.
Ying shook her head slowly and said with a half-smile, "No, you've come into contact with them."
Aoki was slightly stunned.
Come into contact with them?
Then, he tried to recall the things and information about this family in his mind.
He shouldn't have met them before.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in Aoki's mind.
With a hint of hesitation and uncertainty, he said, "Regis?"
Hearing this name, Ying laughed. "It seems that you've remembered something. That's right. Regis' full name is Jinchuan Regis. He's the first heir of this family.
Although no one said anything about what you did last time, it doesn't mean that we don't know about it. "
Aoki raised an eyebrow. He seemed to understand the meaning of Sakaki's gaze back then.
"The old geezer of the Jinchuan family is involved as well?" Aoki asked uncertainly.
This time, Ying didn't say anything. Instead, Ying nodded affirmatively. "That's right. The person involved this time is Jinchuan Locus, Regis' uncle. He's also the younger brother of the current head of the Jinchuan family. He's currently ranked third in the family.
The mission is divided among the three of us. Each of us will be responsible for one of the three divine birds. "
If that was the case, Aoki understood what his real mission was.
He didn't know what the Jinchuan family had done to make Sakaki so unhappy. Sakaki had sent people to deal with them, and he was the sharpest weapon in Sakaki's hands.
That gaze at the end was probably a warning to him.
"So … Regis is also …" Aoki hesitated for a moment before asking.
"They should be participating, but they don't know that you're going to be involved. Our leader has only told us about you," Ying said. She gave Aoki a look that said she didn't quite understand.
There was a moment of silence.
In the end, Aoki asked, "What's the relationship between the Jinchuan family and the Rocket Team?"
If he couldn't get an answer to that question, Aoki didn't know what to do with the mission.
He didn't know how far he should go.
However, if Regis were to participate, Aoki would definitely choose to end things with him. Regis had great potential, and if he was allowed to continue developing, he would definitely become a thorn in Aoki's side in the future.
"The Jinchuan family … Ying, you tell him. You're more familiar with them than I am," Ying said.
Ying gave Ying an annoyed look. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "The Jinchuan family is the leader's father's family. However, the leader's father had actually severed ties with the family a long time ago. Due to the rapid development of the Rocket Team, however, the family still came knocking on his door.
They also provided the Rocket Team with quite a number of talents and contributed to the development of the Rocket Team.
The leader slowly accepted their existence.
However, human desires are limitless. "Ying didn't say anything else after that, but those who understood understood what she meant.
Some things should stop at a certain point.
