Chapter 311 The Art of Leadership
Although the gossips that Qiu Ai told contained a lot of groundless and far-fetched information, Shen Cheng was still willing to believe them and let Qiu Ai continue to inquire about the news in this regard.

It is better to believe it exists than to believe it does not. What if it is true?

Anyway, it won’t cost you anything to believe it, and if it’s true, you’ll make a lot of money.

Qiu Ai was very excited to take on this task. Her dream was actually to be an agent, rather than being a boring fortune teller here and living a life that she could predict the end of.

Shen Cheng looked at Qiu Ming again: "Can you use divination to help me find the identities of the murderers in the recent murders?"

If the murderer's purpose was to disrupt the entertainment celebration, then there might be a possibility of cooperation between him and Shen Cheng.

Hearing Shen Cheng's request, Qiu Ming was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Special Envoy, we have tried to divine the identity of the murderer before, but unfortunately there was no result."

Shen Cheng just asked casually and didn't take it to heart, so naturally he wasn't disappointed.

Just when he was about to give up, Qiu Ming continued, "It's difficult to find the murderer's identity, but I can divine a way for the special envoy to meet the murderer."

Shen Cheng was a little surprised: "Can this be done?"

"of course can."

Qiu Ai interrupted and said, "In mysticism, sometimes certain actions can achieve unexpected results."

"Is this also divination?"

"No, it was luck."

Shen Cheng couldn't tell whether she was joking or serious, so he could only let Qiu Ming give it a try.

Qiu Ming first asked Shen Cheng for a strand of hair with an apologetic look on his face, then got some paper and a pen and asked Shen Cheng to write down the name of the person he wanted to see.

After Shen Cheng finished writing, Qiu Ming used the piece of paper to wrap Shen Cheng's hair and burned it. Finally, he took out the crystal ball and began divination.

As people who were sent by Ji Chan to lurk in Yongle City, this pair of siblings have outstanding abilities, and their divination skills are even more sophisticated.

However, when he was doing divination, Qiu Ming's face was very solemn. It was obvious that this was not an easy task to accomplish.

As time passed, Qiu Ming's face gradually turned pale, and sweat profusely came out of his skin, soon soaking his clothes.

Shen Cheng didn't expect the divination process to be so difficult, and Qiu Ming didn't mention it, otherwise he would have considered changing the method.

After communicating with Ji Chan, Shen Cheng knew that the divination process could not be interrupted, otherwise the fortune teller would suffer serious backlash.

So now he can only watch and wait for the results.

A few minutes later, the divination was finally over. Qiu Ming looked like he had suffered a serious illness and was almost exhausted.

Qiu Ai hurriedly went over to support her brother and took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat.

Shen Cheng also said: "Thank you for your hard work."

Qiu Ming shook his head weakly: "You're welcome, Special Envoy, this is what we should do. Fortunately, we have fulfilled our mission and finally got a result!"

"what's the result?"

"The solution I have predicted for you is that as long as you transfer your most capable subordinate away, you will be able to meet the person you want to meet."

This method made Shen Cheng slightly stunned and a little confused.

But then he realized what was happening and laughed out loud, "I was actually being targeted as well."

The most capable subordinate around Shen Cheng now should be No. 1.

If Number One is transferred away, the murderer can be seen, which means that the murderer has already set his sights on him, but is afraid to act because of Number One's existence.

As long as Number One is transferred away, Shen Cheng will be able to meet the murderer smoothly, but the murderer may not come to see him with good intentions.

After finding a solution, Shen Cheng felt embarrassed to continue bothering Qiu Ming when he saw that he looked like he had been squeezed dry.

"You should have a good rest. I'll come back later."

I have to say that these two fortune tellers are really useful. Without their help, Shen Cheng would not know that he had been targeted by the murderer, and the murderer might have given up because of the existence of Number One.

Qiu Ming was too tired to get up, so Qiu Ai had to personally send Shen Cheng out of the fortune-telling shop.

When she came back, she asked her brother with a silly smile on her face: "Qiu Ming, do you think there is a chance for me and this special envoy? His voice was so gentle when he said goodbye to me, does he like me?"

Qiu Ming looked at his older sister who was eager to get married, with a sweaty face: "Stop daydreaming. This special envoy is obviously not an ordinary person. You can't control him at all."

"Who said I can't control your sister? No matter how thick he is, I can still hold him."

Qiu Ai rubbed her hands together and said excitedly, "The more complicated he is, the more challenging he is."

Qiu Ming was speechless and couldn't help rolling his eyes. He just hoped that the special envoy would not be scared away by his sister's infatuation.

Shen Cheng didn't know that Qiu Ai had been thinking about him, just as he didn't know that Er Hao had been thinking about him too.

When he returned to the hotel, he found that the atmosphere in the room had become a little strange.

Number 3, who had been flirting in front of him, was far away from him this time, while the handsome number 2 sat closest to him.

At first Shen Cheng thought that these three guys had figured it out, but he soon found out that he was wrong.

"Mr. Special Envoy, this is the good tea I brought from my hometown. Please have a taste."

No. 2 suddenly handed Shen Cheng a cup of hot tea.

Shen Cheng didn't think much about it and raised his hand to take it.

However, No. 2 held on to the cup tightly.

Shen Cheng looked up in confusion and found that No. 2 had an expression as if he was going to die heroically, and his collar was wide open, revealing his delicate collarbone and throat.

The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and No. 2 suddenly avoided his gaze shyly.

Shen Cheng: “…”

He looked past No. 2 at the other two and found that No. 1 and No. 3 were sitting upright, but were secretly paying attention to this side out of the corner of their eyes.

Shen Cheng already understood what was going on, and then felt completely disgusted.

What do you three pieces of shit take me for?

Two way plug?
Shen Cheng's face darkened and his mind magic was immediately activated.

Number Two, who was anxiously waiting for Shen Cheng's reaction, was suddenly shocked to find himself in a cell with his hands and feet tightly chained.

Not only that, all his strength disappeared and he became like an ordinary person.

Before No. 2 could figure out what was happening, he saw the cell door suddenly open and No. 1, wearing pink stockings and red high heels, walked in from outside the cell.

"Captain, why are you dressed like this?"

Number Two was dumbfounded: "Also, where is this place?"

However, Number One did not answer Number Two. Instead, he licked his lips, picked up the whip with both hands, and walked over with a perverted smile on his face.

Number Two's astonishment turned into horror: "Captain, what are you doing? Don't come over here."

The screams of No. 2 and the sound of whips echoed in the cell. The same situation was happening elsewhere, but the roles of both sides were completely reversed.

"No. 2, do you know what you are doing?"

Number One, who was tied up with chains, pretended to be calm: "For the sake of our past friendship, I'll give you a chance. If you stop now, I can still pretend that nothing happened."

"It's too late, hehehe."

Number Two had a lewd smile on his face, waving a whip in his hand, and walked towards Number One.

The pretended calm expression on Number One's face finally disappeared.

“Stop it, you bastard, I order you to stop it, ahhhhh.”

While No. 1 and No. 2 were torturing each other, No. 3 also received her blessing, but it was not so perverted, it was just a group sex.

In the hotel room.

Shen Cheng sat quietly. In front of him, No. 1 and the other two were twitching and rolling on the ground, completely under the influence of mind magic.

Although No. 1 is a master, Shen Cheng's mental magic has been strengthened many times by the Eternal Blood, and its strength is no different from that of ordinary five-star abilities, so No. 1 has no resistance to it.

When the time was almost right, Shen Cheng lifted the mind magic, allowing the three people to wake up from the cognitive modification.

The three men were lying on the ground, sweating profusely, with fear and confusion in their eyes.

When No. 1 and No. 2 saw each other, they were shocked and kept their distance from each other at the same time.

Number Three hugged his body tightly with his hands, with a frightened expression on his face.

"how do you feel?"

As soon as Shen Cheng opened his mouth, the three confused people came back to their senses.

They looked at Shen Cheng and finally realized that all the horror they had just experienced was the work of this special envoy.

Shen Cheng met the three people's gaze and asked, "Do you want to do it again?"

"No no no."

The three of them shook their heads repeatedly, their eyes filled with fear.

Even if I were to beat them to death, I would rather not experience the horror that just happened again.

Shen Cheng's voice turned cold: "Since you are unwilling, then remember this lesson. Next time you dare to play tricks on me, it will not be just an illusion."

He didn't mind these people following Yan Yin's orders and doing some small things to win him over, but guessing about his sexual orientation and letting No. 2 to put it into practice clearly showed that they didn't take him seriously and didn't think that such behavior would anger him.

If it were Yan Yin, would they dare to do this?
Therefore, Shen Cheng needed to let them know who has the final say now.

Faced with Shen Cheng's cold words, the three of them turned pale and dared not even breathe.

Shen Cheng was not wrong. In their hearts, the three of them did not truly regard him as a superior and did not give him the respect he deserved.

It was only because of Yan Yin's orders and his loyalty to the Baiye Kingdom that he acted obedient to Shen Cheng.

It was not until now that they truly understood why Shen Cheng was worthy of Yan Yin's efforts to win him over.

Number One was the first to react and immediately took remedial measures by kneeling down towards Shen Cheng.

"Please forgive our reckless behavior, Mr. Special Envoy. Please believe that we will not let you down next time."

Number Two and Number Three also quickly knelt on the ground, waiting tremblingly for Shen Cheng's reaction.

Once Shen Cheng returns and reports the three people's problems to Yan Yin, they will be finished.

Even if Shen Cheng killed them at this moment, Yan Yin would never avenge them.

Looking at the three people kneeling respectfully on the ground, Shen Cheng suddenly felt that this feudal remnant of hierarchy did have some merits.

At least he didn't need to use force to make these three people surrender.

"Get up."

Shen Cheng just wanted to teach them a lesson and had no intention of killing them all.

After the three got up from the ground, Shen Cheng ordered No. 1: "Now find a reason to take No. 2 out for a while, and let the hotel know. If you don't receive my order, don't come back, and leave No. 3 to accompany me."

The three of them looked at each other, confused.

Because Shen Cheng's order looked like he was planning to take advantage of No. 3.

It’s just that someone offered it to you just now but you didn’t want it, and now you suddenly want it again. What’s going on?
Is this the art of leadership?

Make it impossible for your subordinates to guess what you are thinking!

But after the lesson just now, the three of them did not dare to have any objections and immediately obeyed Shen Cheng's orders.

Number One immediately left with Number Two, and even asked the hotel to provide a few waiters to help, saying that they were going out to purchase local specialties.

After walking out of the room, the two looked at each other subconsciously, and then silently distanced themselves from each other.

The hallucination just now was still vivid in his mind. No. 1 (No. 2) had no way to remain calm facing this guy who had taken advantage of his back door.

After No. 1 and No. 2 left, only Shen Cheng and No. 3 were left in the room.

The second time he was alone with Shen Cheng, No. 3 no longer had the desire to seduce Shen Cheng.

She sat there nervously, not daring to make any poses, silently waiting for Shen Cheng's judgment, like a little white lamb whose fur had been exposed and sent to the mouth of a wolf.

However, Shen Cheng ignored her and continued to read the encyclopedia-like travel guide.

He asked No. 1 to take No. 2 away, just to wait for the murderer to show up.

It would arouse suspicion if three bodyguards left together, so at least one had to stay. Between No. 2 and No. 3, Shen Cheng could only choose No. 3. Otherwise, wouldn't he be disgusted by leaving No. 2 behind?

These three guys thought Shen Cheng was interested in No. 3, but in fact Shen Cheng had no choice at all.

As time passed, No. 3 finally regained his composure and realized that Shen Cheng had no intention of attacking him.

A complex emotion emerged in her heart, not knowing whether it was relief or disappointment. She then silently treated herself as a wooden man. She had no intention of seducing Shen Cheng and only wanted to do a good job as a bodyguard, a very promising job.

Before he knew it, No. 3 suddenly felt a deep sense of tiredness rising in his heart.

With her many years of experience as an agent, she would definitely notice something was wrong if someone suddenly felt tired.

But at this moment she was unaware of it. Instead, she felt that this tiredness was natural. She just wanted to have a good sleep and rest.

Number Three's originally upright posture became crooked, his head swayed, and finally he collapsed directly on the chair and fell into a deep sleep.

Not only her, Shen Cheng, who was originally reading a travel guide, had also covered his face with the entire book and was sleeping peacefully on the sofa.

In the deathly silent hotel room, a figure gradually emerged.
