Wang Shu left with a cold face, while Xu Le knocked on the door and prepared to report on last night's incident:
"Come in."
When I pushed the door open, I saw Bai Jing sitting on a chair smoking. There was a bit of fatigue on her 40-year-old face, and it seemed that she was really tired during this period.
"Tell me about the meerkats."
Xu Le just nodded, but before he could speak, Bai Jing suddenly raised her hand to stop him from continuing.
At the same time, the door was pushed open with a bang, without even knocking.
Apart from anything else, the person who came here was probably very impolite.
The person who came was a woman, about 30 years old. Although she was a little short, she was quite pretty.
Following behind him were two guys who were also wearing Night Watch uniforms. Xu Le had some impression of them and he should have seen them in the branch, but he didn't know their names.
"Captain Wang Yueqin, why are you in such a hurry? You didn't even knock on my door."
Wang Yueqin? Xu Le had heard of this name before and thought about it carefully.
This is the person mentioned by Lao Niu in Team 6 before, Team 2 in Area B, a man who became the captain in just two years, the Ghost Blade Wang Yueqin.
Wang Yueqin smiled and completely ignored Xu Le's existence.
He walked to the desk, leaned over and stared at Bai Jing in a condescending manner. She waved her hand, and the night watchman next to her handed her a piece of paper and placed it on the table.
“This is a special order from the captain. From now on, the case of ancient god species contamination in Area B No. 55 will be handled by our Team 2.
Captain White, please give me the information and evidence chain about the Golden Rooster and the Mongoose incident last night."
Xu Le frowned and looked at Bai Jing. Submit the case
The current situation clearly shows some signs of internal struggle.
"What would the captain do?"
Bai Jing's face was always hidden in the smoke, and Xu Le couldn't see it clearly.
But she quickly stood up and pressed the cigarette butt on the "No Smoking" sign again.
Because of her height, she was able to look down at Wang Yueqin.
“Okay, Captain Wang, please wait a moment. I will hand over the chain of evidence and information to you right away.
The strangeness of the Golden Rooster case is that the ancient gods are golden roosters and the ancient sounds are white skeletons. The case occurred near the No. 55 water source. "
Bai Jing wanted to elaborate, but Wang Yueqin interrupted her at this time:
"Stop, stop, stop. Just give me the information and the chain of evidence. There's no need to go into so much detail."
"That won't do. Submitting a case is a very important matter. I don't want to make any mistakes."
Xu Le looked at Bai Jing and became thoughtful.
Every action of the captain should not be meaningless. Her purpose... should be to let me write down the chain of evidence and information as much as possible.
The ethereal state was activated, and Xu Le's eyes began to follow Bai Jing as she read the materials and explained:
“The origin of the Golden Rooster case was that a farmer accidentally broke his femur while cleaning crops in a rice field outside the city, and it became a white skeleton.
After the farmer was deformed, he killed his wife. When attacking the children, the ordinary rooster they raised was affected by unknown energy and directly transformed into a golden rooster, which fought with Bai Hai.
The golden rooster killed the white skeleton, but just like the meerkat case yesterday, this golden rooster also had problems.
It eventually killed that family, as well as several families nearby…”
Bai Jing explained in great detail, and then she handed all the information to Wang Yueqin.
Xu Le had relied on the blessing of the ethereal state to memorize it several times over and over again, and barely remembered the general idea.
Although Wang Yueqin was a little impatient, after getting all the information, she nodded with satisfaction:
“Okay, thank you Captain Bai for your cooperation.
Captain Bai doesn't need to be discouraged, as the construction of a lighthouse requires internal and external interaction.
Although we have different responsibilities, we are all contributing to the Lighthouse.”
"Captain Wang said it well, I think so too."
"Well, I still have to go investigate the scene of the mongoose case, so I won't bother you any more, Captain Bai."
After saying that, Wang Yueqin took her people away.
Xu Le looked at Bai Jing, and there didn't seem to be any anger on the captain's face.
He just lit a cigarette for himself and continued smoking.
"Sit down for a while."
"Captain, what did you mean just now?"
"You're so clever, can't you guess it?"
Xu Le touched his nose. Bai Jing's praise made him feel a little embarrassed.
"The captain asked me to write down the case. Do you think Team 2 can't solve it?"
Bai Jing took a deep puff of her cigarette and suddenly laughed:
"Hehe, no, I just think this case is not that simple."
"Why?"
"Because we can't solve this case either."
Xu Le was shocked. He also had many doubts about the mongoose incident last night:
"Captain, do you know what the Son of Guyinduo is?"
Hearing this word, Bai Jing frowned slightly:
"Son of Gu Yinduo? Are you sure it's the son of Gu Yinduo, and not the heir of Gu Yinduo?"
Offspring? Definitely not an offspring, but the son of Gu Yinduo. Xu Le shook his head:
"I'm not sure about this either."
"Where did you hear that word?"
Xu Le looked at Bai Jing and took out his own ancient music card.
"Ancient sounds contain many secret words."
Xu Le did not lie. If he lied in front of a senior night watchman, he would most likely be seen through.
So he was telling the truth.
The phrase "son of ancient Yinduo" does come from the ancient Yinduo secret language.
Bai Jing seemed to be unaware of the existence of this thing. She shook her head:
"I really don't know about this. Maybe Gan knows something. You can ask him."
"Then, do I still need to go on the mission?"
“No need, the case of Ancient God No. 55 is already very difficult, and we have no clue.
Now that Wang Yueqin has taken over the case, it is also a good thing for us.”
“I see.”
Xu Le's expression showed some regret. To be honest, he was still somewhat curious about handling the Gu Yinduo case.
Especially after I mastered the ability of divination.
"Why, aren't you feeling uncomfortable after being asked to slack off for a few more days?"
Xu Le scratched his head, thinking that the captain had misunderstood him. He was a very serious person at work.
"Uh, no, that's not what I meant. I just think, wouldn't it be uncomfortable for other teams to snatch the case directly from the captain?"
Xu Le's statement may also be the thinking of most team members.
But Bai Jing just smiled, showing no sign of being angry, and continued smoking.
Xu Le had hardly ever seen an angry look on her face.
Moreover, Bai Jing is not as cold as Wang Shu. She gives people the impression that she is a very nice person and she does things very tactfully.
But after finishing smoking, Bai Jing suddenly stopped smiling.
Her voice became somewhat distant:
"Xu Le, have you ever thought about why you always have a smiling face when you are at work, and why you often act according to other people's expressions?"
"Ah?" Xu Le was stunned and was about to say that he didn't look at other people's expressions.
But he suddenly realized that what Bai Jing said seemed to be true. He didn't know when it started, but it really became like this.
Bai Jing didn't look at Xu Le and continued to talk to herself:
“If one day, a person becomes particularly good at dealing with people, welcoming and seeing off guests, and being smooth with all kinds of people.
I won't laugh at him, I will just feel sorry for this person because he killed a part of his former self.
If he had someone to rely on, he would not have become such a person."
Xu Le savored Bai Jing's words, feeling a little stunned and uncomfortable.
If it was in his previous life, to be honest, he would have looked down on those people who were good at dealing with things and felt that those people were boring.
In a word, he felt at that time that he would never become that kind of person.
But now? I seem to have become quite good at dealing with things.
So, does this count as living the life you hate the most
“Why did it become like this?”
Xu Le seemed to be asking Bai Jing, but also seemed to be asking himself.
Bai Jing said calmly:
“Because Team 6 is a detention center, everyone here has a bad background.
When we are not strong enough and have no one to rely on, we have to be more slippery.
Otherwise, those lords in the upper city won’t let us, the scum in the lower city, have a good time.”
Bai Jing's words made Xu Le stunned:
"Are the Night Watchmen also divided into Upper City People and Lower City People? After becoming a Transcendent, don't you have the right to live in the Upper City?"
"You have the qualifications, but I won't play with you!"
“Is this also divided into factions?”
"You know there's no use in this. Go ahead and think about the information you wrote down over the next few days. Maybe it'll be useful someday."
Bai Jing ordered him to leave, and Xu Le could only nod his head:
"Yes, Captain."
After leaving the office, Xu Le saw several members of the executive department saying something indignantly.
It goes without saying that they are talking about Team 2 taking the case.
Xu Le didn't have time to argue with these people here.
Just like Bai Jing said, wouldn’t it be nice to use this time to take a break or recharge yourself
For example, he is now preparing to go to Gan for further studies.
Knock knock knock.
"Mr. Gan, here I come!"
"Come in."
Gan, who was reading, put down the book in his hand, looked at the sleepy Xu Le and frowned slightly:
"You don't look like you're suitable for studying today."
"Um, Mr. Gan blamed me wrongly. I didn't wash my face this morning."
"If you have such dark circles under your eyes without washing your face, I guess the place where you slept yesterday must be very dirty."
Xu Le laughed dryly twice:
"Mr. Gan is really humorous. I stayed up late because I practiced divination yesterday."
Looking at Xu Le, Gan shook his head:
"If it were in the past, I would definitely not teach you anything if you were like this, but unfortunately time is too tight now.
The White Team also needs your growth, and my growth as well.
So let’s get started today.”
Officially start
When Xu Le heard Gan say this, he realized that today's learning content might have changed again.
"What are you learning?"
“Each warlock can master 3 unique secret arts at each level.
You already know the basic secrets of a psychic, which is the basic core psychic summoning.
Then there is the Destiny Card - The Secret Words of Gu Yinduo.
What we are learning today is the last secret technique of the psychic.
In addition to psychic summoning, it is another technique that can be used in combat.
Spirit Scarecrow, do you want to learn?"
Xu Le's eyes lit up. What he had been teaching these days were all big stuff!
What's the situation? Even though Xu Le is eager for knowledge and power, he also knows that it is not advisable to learn too many things when his foundation is still weak.
Should I subtly remind Gan that I have learned too much
Regarding the secret technique, should we... take it slow
“Teachers are above us, and when students pay respect to them, they are not afraid of hardship or fatigue.
Please teach me some secret techniques!"
