At ten o'clock the next morning, a car arrived downstairs at Chen Lu's house.
Chen Lu stood downstairs, wearing sunglasses, looking up at the Maserati.
Wang Ren waved his hand from the Maserati, "Get in the car, brother."
"Heh." Chen Lu smiled lightly,
"How do you open the car door?"
Wang Ren: "..."
The security bureau was very remote. Wang Ren drove for an hour before reaching a suburban area. There was a high-end office building in such a deserted place. It was difficult for Chen Lu to measure how tall this building was.
"Go to work!" Wang Ren stretched his waist and led Chen Lu into the security bureau.
"This is the main office of the Windy City Security Bureau, but the security bureau is managed by the Asian Federation, so there will be many foreigners, but don't worry, they are very easy-going."
Chen Lu listened to Wang Ren's words, and then looked at a lifeless person walking by him. The skin on his body was loose, as if he had been wearing it.
He noticed Chen Lu's gaze, and stared back, making Chen Lu's scalp tingle.
This is the elegant and easy-going Security Bureau
Taking the elevator, Chen Lu came to the sixth floor, Wang Ren's office.
"Come on, sit down wherever you want."
Wang Ren touched the screen on the reception table, ordered a cappuccino for Chen Lu, and then took out a file bag from under the table. The file bag was very thick, and when he opened it was a stack of contracts.
Chen Lu looked at the contract and didn't move, but said:
"Get my reward first."
"You kid... the reward is 1.2 million, and I personally added 200,000 to you, and then I applied for the right to choose for you. You can choose one of these three ghosts to wear Walk."
When Wang Ren touched the screen, the data of the three ghosts appeared, which really caught Chen Lu's attention.
A black bell, a blood-stained stick, and a red dice.
Chen Lu leaned down and carefully read the introductions of the three ghosts.
Dead Bell (Copy): An item taken from a ghost, which is rare and can be hung on a ghost. When the ghost moves, it will make a clear ringing sound from far to near.
Rotten Stick (Replica): A stick with a rotten breath, it will break if you use it once, but it can unconditionally repel the ghost once.
Ghost Dice: The gambler's dice can only be used once, and different points will have different effects.
The power of the replica is weaker than the original, and it can only be used once, but it will not revive the ghost.
Chen Lu pointed to the ghost dice: "Why doesn't this dice have the word 'replica'?"
"Is this?" Wang Ren explained, "Because this is a ghost object, using it will risk the revival of ghosts."
Seeing Chen Lu's tangled look, Wang Ren couldn't help but add, "I suggest you choose the rotten stick. This is the most successful copy in my opinion. So far, the rotten stick is indeed able to repel ghosts unconditionally. And it won't revive the ghost."
Chen Lu dragged the screen, rotated the rotten stick 360 degrees to observe, and thought about which one he should choose.
The dead bell can only be used in specific scenes, otherwise why hang bells on ghosts
The rotten stick is indeed a bug, but it can only be used once. Repelling the ghost at a critical moment can delay a lot of time, but once the ghost approaches again, it will be useless.
In the end, there is ghost dice. As a ghost, he is definitely stronger than the two replicas, but he has to bear the risk of ghost recovery, and the reward is not stable...
After thinking about it, Chen Lu finally followed Wang Ren's introduction and chose the rot stick.
However, he is very interested in ghost dice, and he still has to ask Wang Ren for the opportunity.
"That's right, if you didn't choose ghost dice, then you're pretty safe." Wang Ren showed satisfaction on his face, and his impression of Chen Lu got better.
"Then, let's talk about the security officer... By the way, you should look at the contract first."
Chen Lu nodded, picked up the contract, but frowned at a glance.
"Dongjiang district security officers...Dongjiang district accounts for a quarter of Fengcheng, do security officers manage such a large place?"
"Eh... Dongjiang District's welfare is also good! As a security officer in Dongjiang District, the annual salary is two million. Even if there is no abnormal event, you can still receive a ghost replica every year. I have fought for a long time to help you." Got it!"
Chen Lu looked at Wang Ren suspiciously. Such benefits were even more suspicious, and he dared not sign them.
"The premise of my cooperation is that both parties treat each other honestly."
Chen Lu shook the contract, leaned on the sofa, and looked at Wang Ren coldly.
Seeing Chen Lu with a cold face, Wang Ren was no longer in the mood to smile.
He picked up the cappuccino on the table, took a sip, put down the cup, crossed his hands, and then stated his purpose:
"Dongjiang District has been in chaos recently."
"The outbreak of abnormal incidents in Dongjiang District has a tendency to increase day by day, and two consecutive ghost slayers died in abnormal incidents, so the organization decided that our bureau would appoint a ghost slayer to guard the place with the other two Dongjiang District."
"I think that although you have only mastered one ghost, you are strong enough and bold and careful. You are a good talent. It is no problem that you are qualified for this position."
Chen Lu was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that the only person who had seen Chen Lu's two ghosts was Song Xi, and now Song Xi was still in the scientific research center.
"Of course." Wang Ren changed the subject, "I still have a contract here, you only need to take care of Chengnan, who is one level younger, but the benefits...of course it can be called good, but there are no ghosts It's just a guarantee."
"Let me remind you, don't think that you can avoid danger in the south of the city."
Chen Lu didn't answer. He looked into Wang Ren's eyes without expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a long time, he smiled slightly.
"Okay, I'll take it."
What Wang Ren said was right, it was not dangerous to go anywhere, Dongjiang District had other ghost slayers to help, and Chen Lu had two actual check-in locations in Dongjiang District.
But can this check-in system predict Wang Ren's whereabouts in advance? Why is the place where the sign-in happens to be in Dongjiang
And why the abnormal incident broke out in Dongjiang District, is it really a coincidence
Chen Lu picked up the contract and continued
"Huh? What does it mean to go to Dongjiang University?"
Chen Lu saw that the contract also named him to study at Dongjiang University. Dongjiang University is the number one university in Fengcheng, which is much better than Chen Lu's current university.
"Oh, it's not about you, it's about all security officers."
"Returning to a normal life is very helpful for the mental state, so remember not to skip classes all the time!"
"..."
This is really not a problem. A moderate amount of contact with the outside world can indeed adjust the mental state.
Chen Lu remembered that his cousin also went to school in Dongjiang University Town, which school he forgot...
Finally, after carefully checking the omissions in the contract and confirming that it was an ordinary contract, Chen Lu signed his name.
"Pleasant cooperation."
Wang Ren sent Chen Lu away, and he had to go to work, so he could only watch Chen Lu leave the office building.
Chen Lu took the Didi special car arranged by Wang Ren, and set foot on the way home again. He was in a hurry and would leave for Dongjiang tomorrow, and the house had been arranged for him.
After Chen Lu left, a man's voice came from Wang Ren's cell phone.
"I remember that there are only two places for ghost slayers in Dongjiang District. Are you afraid of causing dissatisfaction among the ghost slayers if you add one more? The number of ghost slayers staring at this seat can't be counted with ten fingers. What do you think? Solve it."
The person on the phone is right. Although Dongjiang District is dangerous, the benefits are also exaggerated, and there are many coveted people.
"Are you talking about counting on those ghost slayers who want to whore for nothing?"
"Or do you still not see how powerful he is?"
Wang Ren asked back.
"Just because there is no trace of the ghost's recovery in dealing with the blind box incident is already terrifying, and I specifically emphasized the danger of Dongjiang District, but there is no fear on his face."
"A safe person who chooses a rotten stick will not be without consideration. It can only show his affirmation of his own strength."
"I even suspect that there are two ghosts on him."
The person on the other end of the phone was silent and finally hung up.
...
...
Sitting in the car, Chen Lu sighed with emotion about his life.
Didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he would become a millionaire and even a student of a prestigious university
Life is such a drama.
It's just that Chen Lu risked his life to get all of this, so he didn't have that impetuous mood, instead he felt like a sage.
Sure enough, he is worthy of being a man, and he will not cherish it if he gets it.
Chen Lu got out of the car, walked to the door of the house, and rang the doorbell.
There was a tapping sound in the room, and then the door opened.
"you are back?"
A young man poked his head out and rushed back to the living room after confirming that it was Chen Lu.
"Remember to close the door, I'm going to watch TV."
"Okay~" Chen Lu took off his shoes and closed the door. He looked back and saw that the man was watching a movie on the sofa with his shoes on.
"Why don't you take off your shoes?"
"Why are you taking off your shoes?"
"That's right... why do you need to take off your shoes?" Chen Lu hesitated, the man was right, but he took off his shoes habitually and walked into the living room.
"I'm going to take a shower!"
"OK!"
Chen Lu walked into the shower room. He turned on his mobile phone, played a song, and listened to the music to take a bath to relieve his mood.
This is a piece of classical music, without lyrics, only the melody.
The song was playing along with the sound of flushing water. Chen Lu closed his eyes and took a shower. Suddenly, the music stopped abruptly.
Another song was played, and Chen Lu's behavior of taking a bath was stagnant.
Strange, isn't the song over yet? Why did you cut the song? ...
"Why can't you cut the song, isn't this normal?"
A man's voice suddenly sounded in the toilet, Chen Lu looked towards the crack of the door, his roommate showed one eye, staring at Chen Lu through the crack of the door.
"Yeah... is there anything unusual about this?"
Although Chen Lu always felt that something was wrong, he still didn't pursue it and continued to take a bath.
This time he washed very quickly, and walked out of the room in five minutes.
He was very uncomfortable inside, and his roommate made him feel very strange.
But I can't tell.
Chen Lu walked out of the bathroom, looked at the man, his face went from flushing to pale in an instant.
"You... what are you doing?"
Chen Lu took a step back. He saw the man holding his head and standing stiffly in the living room. The head in the man's arms turned his eyes and stared at him.
"Um?"
The corner of the head's mouth twitched strangely, as if he was laughing, and then he said softly:
"Again... is there anything unreasonable about it?"
Hearing what the head said, Chen Lu's originally tense nerves gradually relaxed, his eyes gradually returned from vigilance to calm, and he was still a little puzzled, as if he was questioning his actions just now.
"yes."
"Just hold your own head."
"Is there anything unreasonable?"
