Legends of Runeterra

Chapter 446: Night Talk with Camille

Sitting on the sofa, Li En looked down at the jurisdiction of Hefeng Industry through the huge integrated floor-to-ceiling windows.

After all this time of governance, the dark and depressing haze that is characteristic of Zaun has become much lighter in the area where Hefeng Industries is located.

The street lamps emitted bright lights, and the bumpy streets covered with dirty and suspicious liquids disappeared, replaced by neat streets paved with stone bricks.

People walking on the road are no longer so cautious. Although their clothes are simple, they are at least clean, tidy, well-fitting, and without patches.

“Crack~!”

A light sound was heard, and Li En's brows moved slightly.

"Are you here?"

“Da, da, da~!”

Some strange footsteps were heard, and a tall and slender figure walked gracefully to Li En's side.

"In Zaun, what Hefeng Industries has created is truly a miracle."

"Really? But there are also many people who are restless."

"Of course, there are always those kinds of people, right?"

"Haha~! Good evening, Ms. Camille. It's been a while since we last met. I miss you so much."

Li En's mouth corners slightly raised, and he turned his head to look at the figure beside him.

The Hex eyes emitting a faint blue glow were also looking at Li En at this moment.

"Good evening, Li En, you look...ve changed a lot?"

After not seeing each other for a long time, Li En's appearance has become more and more outstanding, but the more significant change is that although Li En used to look confident and had incredible kindness and benevolence, Camille, who has been engaged in the spy career all her life, can still see the incomprehensible "worry" hidden in Li En's heart.

As a collaborator, Camille did not choose to dig deeper.

But when they met again, the hidden worry between Li En's eyebrows was gone, and now there was only unstoppable confidence.

She was a little curious, but just like before, Camille still didn't ask any questions.

Besides, she came here directly tonight to maintain the alliance between her family and Hefeng Industry, an excellent partner.

"Please take a seat, Lady Camille. Is it only Ionian tea?"

"Of course, thank you."

Camille sat opposite Li En, with her long, straight legs together and placed sideways. Every movement was perfectly in line with aristocratic etiquette, elegant and confident.

"Is this...Victor's research result?"

"Yes, that's right."

Meeting Li En's gaze, Camille nodded slightly.

"Hex-powered bionic legs. I asked the maid to put them on when I go out.

We are meeting friends tonight, so that pair of fine steel blades is not really appropriate, is it? "

"Haha~! Ms. Camille is so thoughtful. Please have some tea."

He handed the brewed tea to Camille, who took it with both hands. Li En smiled slightly when he saw this.

"Since Ms. Camille considers me a friend, I won't beat around the bush. Do you have anything to say about the large amount of Hextech crystal ore that suddenly flowed onto the streets of Piltover?"

“Money can’t buy loyalty, but it can buy betrayal.

I'm sorry, Li En, this matter is indeed the responsibility of the Philos family."

Camille picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Karl Firoth, one of the people in charge of the exploration in the Kumangu Jungle, secretly concealed the newly discovered Hextech crystal mine and sold it to a group of Piltover nobles led by Midalda."

"I see. Then..."

"The people and relevant evidence have been delivered to Mr. Hilco. Mr. Li En, you can deal with them as you wish."

"Didi didi~!"

The transmitter at hand lit up and Li En tapped it lightly.

"Lord Li En, the Philos family suddenly sent someone over."

"Okay, I understand. I'll check the evidence and hand the person back if he says so."

"Yes, my lord."

After hanging up the phone, Li En looked up at Camille, who was a little surprised.

"Li En you..."

"If Ms. Camille can do this, then I should naturally trust you and the Ferros family."

"..."

Hex looked straight at Li En, and Camille suddenly smiled.

"Thank you, Li En."

"Well, you're welcome."

"In view of the mistake made by the Philos family this time, we are willing to give up the 5 points of profit that belonged to Philos in the contract to show the Philos family's sincerity."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course, someone from the Philos family will come to sign the contract tomorrow."

"Well, as you wish."

Seeing Li En nod in agreement, Camille felt a little relieved. The main purpose of tonight was achieved.

But what follows is concern about the current dual-city structure.

The methods used by the Midalda family and others were very dishonorable. Not only did they use tricks to seize the Hextech crystal mines, they also used women and power to win over a talented researcher from Hefeng Industries.

Given the current size of Hefeng Industry, if a conflict really occurs, there will definitely be an unprecedented upheaval between the two cities.

Thinking of this, Camille spoke slowly.

"Li En, can you tell me what you think about those families in Midalda?"

“They are not important.”

"Ok?"

Facing Camille's puzzled gaze, Li En stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Be it Midalda or the Hextech Crystal Mine, or even Jayce who is now thriving among the upper class of Piltover, none of these are important."

"So what do you care about?"

"My hope has always been that this haze that has shrouded Zaun for hundreds of years will eventually lift.

As two cities that were originally one, people living in Zaun or Piltover should have the opportunity to live under the same sunshine.

This is the goal that I, or those who are willing to join Hefeng Industry, pursue together. "

Li En had his back to Camille, and the faint light coming in from the window cast his slender and tall figure.

Arrogant and crazy, this was Camille's first reaction when she heard Li En's ideal, but looking at the street scene outside the window that was exactly the same as the prosperous area of ​​Piltover, she felt that this did not seem to be a foolish dream.

As a spy, Camille is very familiar with the terrain of the Twin Cities. If the earth-shaking changes below continue, perhaps Zaun can really become what Li En described.

"What a great idea. It seems that I was a little bit negligent in my previous opinion of Japanese industry."

"Haha~! There's no need to be like that, Ms. Camille. As our allies, you are also contributing to this ideal, aren't you?"

"Haha~! It's my honor!"

...

“Crack~!”

A steel cable shot out from her thigh and hooked onto the protrusion that Li En specially designed on the Japanese Industrial Building. Camille quickly left in the night.

After tonight's conversation, Camille saw the ambitions of Li En and Hefeng Industries.

But to be honest, Camille didn't hate it, she was even a little happy.

A rational and far-sighted leader led this change. More importantly, this leader, Li En, except for being a little too "loving" emotionally, had the highest moral standards Camille had ever seen.

Only more fertile land can produce more luxuriant flowers. Even though wise people can see that Piltover treats Zaun as a garbage dump, they can do nothing about it under the general environment.

Now that someone has stepped forward, Camille is very much looking forward to this change.

"Whoo~~!"

The sound of wind came into her ears, and Camille looked at the residence of the Philos family from afar.

"Since Li En has given me respect, I will also give Carl Fellowes some respect."
