Ye Lan has already appeared in the Leader's office.
Ji Yun walks out of the office as usual, leaving the space to the two of them.
She has observed.
Ye Lan might not be just a simple connection. She hides enormous secrets, seemingly related to this Star Eclipse incident.
Otherwise, the Leader wouldn't call for her so frequently.
Although Ji Yun has noticed this point, she won't inquire about anything.
She only needs to do her job well.
Ji Yun walks out of the office, gently closing the door.
Only Ye Lan and the Leader remain in the office.
Ye Lan cautiously asks: "Um... Leader, what do you need me for again?"
"Nothing major, just want to inquire about some details regarding this information."
"Hmm?"
As Ye Lan is somewhat confused, the Leader asks: "Since I handed this information to you in the dream, there should be more detailed explanations. Let's not talk about the daydream conjecture first. The matter of the Dream Narrator's weakness should be something we Night Watchers deduced after contacting the Star Eclipse itself. Do you remember those things I told you in the dream? If there are any other supplements, please tell me."
"Ah this..."
Ye Lan hesitates, not knowing what to say.
It seems the Leader has taken the two pieces of information she inserted as information discovered by the Night Watchers.
"Um... Leader, actually... the daydream conjecture and the Dream Narrator's weakness, these two pieces of information, were discovered by me."
"Huh?"
The Leader's mind short-circuits for a moment, almost unable to react.
"Wait, say that again, I didn't hear clearly."
"Um... I thought of the daydream conjecture when I saw the phrase 'day and night reversal' while shopping, and about the Dream Narrator's weakness... he told me personally."
"..."
Silence is tonight's Cambridge.
The Leader had thought these two important pieces of information were obtained by the Night Watchers through hard work in the dream. He had even marveled at the high efficiency of the Night Watchers. Who could have imagined that these two pieces of information were actually obtained by this loli in front of him?
This is really embarrassing.
"Ahem."
The Leader deliberately coughs once, quickly recovering from the slightly embarrassing state, as if nothing was wrong.
As a leader, not only does one need a strong mind and management ability, but also an extremely thick skin. Only then can one be considered well-rounded.
"Anyway, thank you for your efforts, Ye Lan. Your contribution is worthy of substantial rewards. Thank you for your hard work."
"It's nothing, I just want to go home quickly."
Ye Lan embarrassedly scratches her head, still feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
At this moment, the Leader suddenly remembers something, which is what Ye Lan just said.
"Wait, didn't you just say the Dream Narrator personally told you his weakness?"
"Mm-hmm, that's right."
The Leader's expression freezes, quickly becoming serious.
"Did he do anything to you? Did he do anything to you? This matter is very important, please tell me the entire process in detail."
"Hmm... understood."
Then, Ye Lan obediently recounts her encounter with the Dream Narrator.
Like the deep dream, and the protection of the Wish Machine, which prevented the Dream Narrator from doing anything to her.
Finally, the Dream Narrator told her his weakness because of something Ye Lan said.
That's roughly the situation.
Of course, Ye Lan didn't tell the Leader about Kong Yubai and Shu Yao. It's better to keep that confidential.
As for the Wish Machine and such, there's probably no need to keep it secret, after all, the Leader already knows about it.
After listening, the Leader ponders.
"So it's this kind of situation? What exactly is the Dream Narrator's purpose? He even told you his weakness?"
"Well... he probably thought I would forget everything after leaving the dream. The authenticity of this weakness might be quite high." At least that's what Ye Lan thinks.
"No, although my intuition tells me the authenticity of this weakness is high, him telling you the weakness is definitely not that simple. He might have already discovered that you don't forget everything after leaving the dream, and has other purposes."
"Eh? Is that so?" Ye Lan is slightly taken aback, having not thought of this at all.
The Leader nods lightly, then looks at Ye Lan seriously.
"Ye Lan, do you act alone in the dream for long periods?"
"Eh? Yes."
"Then it would be better for you to stay at the headquarters in the dream from now on, to avoid being targeted by the Dream Narrator. This is also for your safety."
Although the Leader doesn't have confidence in opposing the Dream Narrator in the dream, having Ye Lan stay in a safe place at least gives him some peace of mind.
But Ye Lan doesn't think that way in her heart.
Although the Leader told her to obediently stay at headquarters, will she comply?
Joking, it's better to play outside with Kong Yubai and Shu Yao.
The Leader definitely won't blame her, and after leaving the dream, the Leader will forget everything. At that time, she can just lie and say she obediently stayed put in the dream.
Mm-hmm, it's not bad to be a bad child occasionally!
The Leader observes Ye Lan's micro-expressions, seemingly guessing something, and smiles helplessly.
"Anyway, be mindful of your safety. Also, we Radiant Sun Night Watchers will try to verify the daydream conjecture today. You should join in too."
"Ehhhh? Do I have to sleep during the day too?"
The Leader shrugs.
"This can't be helped. Who told you to be the only one who can retain memories from the dream?"
"Ah this..."
Ye Lan hesitates.
She really wants to betray a certain Mo Tutu who likes to watch the show, to let her know what human treachery is like.
But this might expose the troupe's secrets, so better not say it.
In the end, she still has to bear it silently alone.
Damn it!
This further strengthens her determination to feminize Mo Tutu quickly!
A completely feminized Mo Tutu is super cute, okay?!
Faced with the Leader's words, Ye Lan puts on an unwilling expression.
"Fine..."
Seeing her expression, the Leader feels like he's done something universally despised.
"Ye Lan, let's treat this as employment. I won't use duty or responsibility to bind you. What do you want? I can use it as compensation."
"Really?"
Ye Lan immediately becomes energetic.
Now there's motivation.
Who wants to work overtime without benefits?
Seeing Ye Lan become energetic, the Leader feels his decision was correct.
Although Ye Lan is currently a Night Watcher, her future might not necessarily be in the hands of the Night Watchers.
It should be known that she has another dangerous identity.
If she's oppressed like capitalists exploit workers, she might immediately turn against them.
The Leader doesn't want to add a Supernova-level Star Eclipse trouble.
"Of course it's true. Tell me, what do you want?"
"I want to become a Radiant Sun Night Watcher, then get a cool car! And finally retire on the spot!"
Ye Lan's eyes sparkle with desire, clearly showing she's serious.
This request immediately silences the Leader.
