The sunshine outside the window is dazzling, and it is extremely hot in Koro Island today.
The air conditioner was turned on very high, and Jiang Chen was sitting in the study, holding a book in his hand quietly. It was rare for him to calm down and read a book like this. Thanks to Ayesha's presence, this elegantly decorated study never became dusty.
He really wasn't in the mood to go out today, nor was he in the mood to put on the Phantom helmet and play games, so he simply came to the study. While waiting for news about the ghost agent, he quietly read this book that he had half read a year ago but never picked up.
"Cabbage and the King"
He didn't try to guess the ending of the story, because O. Henry's endings were always so unexpected.
A gust of wind blew gently, and Jiang Chen raised his head. Ayesha, wearing a maid outfit, had already appeared at the door, walking next to him with light steps.
"The identity of the assassin was found. Her parents were members of the Black Ship and died in the pursuit of ghost agents."
At Jiang Chen's request, Ayesha did not tell him the girl's name.
After closing the page, Jiang Chen put the book aside and asked softly.
"What about her?"
"It has nothing to do with the Black Ship... but it cannot be ruled out that people from the Black Ship later found her, gave her simple training, and instilled in her... the concept of hatred." Ayesha adjusted her words and explained as concisely as possible. road.
"Really..." Jiang Chen fell into deep thought.
The hatred bred out of hatred was something he expected. However, he has no intention of changing his mind. The Black Ship Organization must die no matter what, and any excuse is not enough to justify being anti-human.
What's more, they are just dying.
"We can add a physical examination item to the entry inspection to monitor people with genetic codes." Ayesha suggested.
"There are too many people who carry hidden genetic codes, even more than those who don't. The only difference between superpowers and ordinary people is whether that genetic code is expressed explicitly or not," Jiang Chen said softly.
Ghost agents have penetrated into all areas of the new country and use artificial intelligence to monitor every phone call, every text message, and every 1kb of data incoming and outgoing from the new country. However, it is almost impossible to ensure the identity security of every inbound passenger in a tourist country with more than hundreds of thousands of tourists a month.
Compared to mercenaries using thermal weapons, attacks from unarmed superpowers are sometimes more dangerous and difficult to defend against. For example, the girl last night used mental attacks at critical moments, which could kill people without being noticed.
Fortunately, although these so-called superpowers are incredible, they are all within the scope of nature. Those mutants in Marvel who can move through the air every second, definitely don’t exist.
Biting her lower lip, Ayesha buried her pretty face full of apologies.
"I'm very sorry. It was my fault that you were assassinated last night—"
"No need to be sorry, please raise your head." Jiang Chen smiled, "No one can predict what is about to happen. All we can do is to prevent problems before they happen, not to prevent them from being inevitable."
Although Jiang Chen's words gave Aisha some comfort, the little girl still did not completely forgive herself for her dereliction of duty. If he hadn't been there, there would have been at least one ghost agent accompanying Jiang Chen. Unfortunately, the atmosphere between him and Xia Shiyu was so good last night that Zhu Yu, who was protecting Jiang Chen by his side, did not dare to watch the "passionate live broadcast" between the two, so he left quietly.
No one expected it to be such a coincidence. If Zhu Yu had been nearby at the time, she would have killed the girl immediately without hesitation. People with superpowers are also human beings. No matter what kind of superpower they are, as long as the person dies, nothing will happen.
For this matter, Ayesha gave Zhu Yu a hard lesson.
If it were her, she would definitely not hide away when Jiang Chen and Xia Shiyu did something shameful, and she would still participate in it... ahem.
Seeing that Aisha didn't speak, Jiang Chen paused for a moment and then continued.
"What happened last night is nothing. My car has been modified. Even if the car didn't stop and hit the sea, I would only suffer minor injuries at most. So don't feel too guilty. In that world, I have seen more terrible things." of superpowers."
"More terrifying?"
Jiang Chen smiled and nodded.
"His super power has been unlocked to the third level, and he can even wipe an entire province off the map... But in the end he died under my lightsaber."
Thanks to the sub-crystals detonated by the guy named Boyu, otherwise his storage space would not have transformed into the actual universe.
After hearing what Jiang Chen said, Ayesha asked worriedly.
"Is that world over there... so scary?"
"You can't say that. Although the situation over there is chaotic and bad in every sense, fortunately there is a group of pretty good people who are slowly establishing order. So, you also Don't worry too much about me. If I have a chance, I will take you there to see... although it's not a good place."
After saying that, Jiang Chen smiled and stretched out his hand to touch Aisha's head.
"Yeah." Ayesha murmured softly.
…
In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Jiang Chen did not make the news of the assassination public. And the girl's body was brought to the end of the world for burial, and the traces of her existence were erased from this world forever.
After resting at home for a day, he came to the group building as usual the next day.
It was somewhat different from what he imagined. He originally thought that with Xia Shiyu's thin skin, after experiencing such a humiliating incident, she would definitely avoid him for several days in a row. However, the reality was beyond his expectation. Xia Shiyu not only did not avoid him, she even took the initiative to sit opposite him during lunch.
I don't know if it was Jiang Chen's misunderstanding, but the relationship between the two has become much closer.
However, when the two of them were eating, they mostly talked about work.
"How are the preparations at Future Human Technology?"
"What are you referring to?" After mixing the salad dressing and fruits and vegetables, Xia Shiyu picked up a piece of tomato with a fork and put it into the cherry bite. For some reason, Jiang Chen always felt that those bright red lips were very erotic the moment he bit the tomato. Maybe it was because the salad dressing was white
"cell phone."
Jiang Chen cut a piece of meat from the steak and chewed it to hide his embarrassment for a moment.
"Futureman Heavy Industries has delivered samples. Judging from the quality of the products, they are definitely worthy of the concept of 'next generation'. In addition, I have also seen Ning Huajian's planning plan, and the promotion and sales channels of Futureman Technology have also It’s ready. All the work is in place, now there’s just one last thing left.”
"What's up?"
Xia Shiyu smiled slightly, using a rare joking tone.
"Chairman please name me." (.)
