There are always some truths and falsehoods in the rumors. You can't completely believe them, but you can't completely disbelieve them either.
For example, Paihuazi was initially rumored to be miraculous. Each trafficker seemed to have special hypnosis skills. How many hypnosis masters still need props to assist them. They just pat their heads and shoulders.
Then, as their horizons broadened, the public began to question, pointing out evidence that the rumors were false, and conclusively demonstrated the dangers of superstitious rumors.
Then came the doubts...
Ye Shuang didn't know what happened to others, but she was certain that the statement of "drug addiction" was true.
Veritaserum has been used in the United States since the 1900s. It was once used to cooperate with the court in interrogating criminals. It was not until the 1950s that questions were raised, denying the results of the confessions produced by veritaserum.
But this does not mean that sodium thiopental has really withdrawn from the stage of history. It has just been transferred and lurked under the mass media and used by intelligence agencies or criminals on special occasions.
After becoming an intermediate agent, Han Chu once took time to take Ye Shuang to a chemical laboratory because the scope of his business became complicated. Some medicines worth noting but not widely circulated were brought out by Han Chu to Ye Shuang to get familiar with, and among them was the sodium thiopental in the man's hand...
"Then what's stored in the phone?"
If Ye Shuang's curiosity was only two or three points at first, it is now seventy or eight points.
The man choked for a moment and was about to speak when Ye Shuang interrupted him: "Forget it, I know you won't say it!"
Man: “…”
Ye Shuang thought about it: "Actually, I haven't seen anything on my phone. Do you believe it?"
Only a ghost can believe it! The man finally seized the opportunity to speak and sneered. He flipped his wrist and took out a small spray bottle again: "If you ask me, I'll believe it!"
"You think I'm stupid." Ye Shuang scorned: "Reducing brain activity can at best lower the defenses of ordinary people. Even Veritaserum is not completely omnipotent. There are also special people who have undergone adaptive training!"
"That's true. I really don't intend to completely believe what you said." The man actually agreed.
Ye Shuang sighed: "Besides, now that I've seen you show off such a thing, even if I really don't know anything, I'm afraid you won't give up easily. It's all because of my agility."
The effect of using up the Veritaserum is similar to that of a person who is drunk and drunk. Not only does he know everything and talks about everything, but he will not have the memory of that period after he wakes up... In other words, if a man still has a bottom line or doesn't want to cause trouble, make sure Ye Shuang might have let her go without knowing the secret.
Unfortunately, Ye Shuang reacted quickly and interrupted the reading of the man's skill with a backhand. When he looked back and calmed down, it was obviously impossible to pretend that nothing had happened.
The man wrinkled his face in confusion: "... This is absolutely correct."
Ye Shuang thought about it again and sighed in distress: "There are cameras in the hospital parking lot. If you really succeed in the car, that's fine. But if we have a conflict now, you won't be able to run away even if I'm done... What should I do?"
"..." Yes, what should I do? The man held his head and beat the car in pain for half a minute, then turned around and said angrily: "If you let me succeed in the first place, everything would be fine!"
"Why don't you reflect on your dark psychology and act impulsively?!" Ye Shuang couldn't bear it anymore. This person was simply unreasonable.
When a war was about to break out, the tense atmosphere was interrupted at the critical moment by the ringing of a mobile phone in the man's pocket. It was the same mobile phone belonging to the girl in the hospital bed.
The man gave Ye Shuang a confused look, then took out his cell phone and stared at it.
Ye Shuang spread her hands: "You take it, I won't run away for now."
If this matter is not resolved today, running away will mean countless troubles. After all, when he sent the fainted girl to the hospital last night, the person who signed the contact book was Ye Shuang's own information.
After hearing what Ye Shuang said, the man's face looked much better. He picked up the phone angrily and walked a little further away: "Hello!"
"I looked at it for a long time, so I borrowed the phone from the bed next door." The girl's voice came slowly from the other side of the phone: "It sounds like you are not in a good mood... Well, do you think that girl read our text messages? "
"It was just one night. Who knows how much she has learned in such a long time?" The man admitted readily without shying away from Ye Shuang's position two meters behind him.
The girl's side was completely unaffected by the man's loud voice. The voice that accompanied the noisy background of the hospital corridor was heard softly: "Did you forget to read the text message on my mobile phone to open the password?"
The man was suffocated for a moment: "..." He really forgot. He was only checking how much prohibited content was stored in the text message, and was completely unaware of the steps he took to unlock it reflexively before clicking on the text message.
The girl sighed: "That's why I said you have a low IQ..."
"Even if this is the case, that woman may also have special password-breaking skills!" The man said with a stern tone, trying to hide his guilt with his volume.
Ye Shuang raised her hand and interrupted: "I really haven't learned this skill before. You are overthinking it."
The man glared angrily. Seeing that the man didn't seem to want to discuss this issue with him, Ye Shuang had no choice but to spread his hands and make a gesture of "whatever you want".
The girl didn't have Ye Shuang's hearing, so naturally she couldn't hear the voice coming from behind the man. She continued her evaluation of the man: "Since you have admitted that you are going to find that girl's trouble, I won't feel comfortable contacting you again now." With your tone, I might as well make a bold guess that you didn’t succeed?”
Man: "..." My partner is so sharp that I can't even have fun!
The girl sighed again: "Well, I don't count on your IQ anymore. The best outcome is that you didn't abduct anyone, and the worst outcome is that you did it but still failed... Well, to put it simply, you are exposed Right!"
If it was still a question before, the girl had already used an affirmative tone when she said the last sentence.
Because what the girl said was so reasonable, the man was speechless for a moment.
"... Come and help me with the discharge procedures." The girl was silent for a long time, and finally concluded: "I think your mess can be salvaged. Let's see if the girl is willing to discuss it."
…
Ye Shuang, who was very willing to solve the problem peacefully and amicably, readily agreed to the girl's invitation.
After waiting for the man to help the girl go through the discharge procedures, the three of them left together in Ye Shuang's car. As for the car the man drove, it didn't matter. Anyway, the only stop at the hospital was to pay some money when he went back to pick up the car.
Since they only needed to discuss, the three of them didn't have to find a noble place to sit. As soon as Ye Shuang drove out of the hospital, the girl spoke slowly: "Isn't this sister an ordinary person?"
"Well...probably not an ordinary person." Not even an ordinary human being.
Ye Shuang thought about it seriously, then turned to the steering wheel and looked in the rearview mirror: "But I am very law-abiding. I am just good at it, and my background is not as complicated as you think."
"What did we imagine?" The girl tilted her head, with a look of confusion clearly in her eyes: "How could you have such a misunderstanding? We didn't make any guesses without authorization."
"Oh, it's mainly your friend's reaction..." Ye Shuang explained euphemistically: "You also saw his reaction as soon as he entered the ward. And then there was the second grader who wanted to use truth serum before he understood the situation... Cough! I mean impulsive."
"..." The girl's condemning eyes turned quietly to the guilty man sitting next to her.
"Look, what are you looking at!" The man became angry.
The girl's voice was still calm, but there was clearly a trace of sadness in her expression: "I just want to roughly estimate how long I might be dragged down by your IQ?"
The man finally got angry: "Can you stop talking about my IQ?"
Ye Shuang was also angry: "Ci'ao! I borrowed this car from a friend. If it's damaged, will you pay for it?!"
… Counting the waking hours, Ye Shuang never spent more than an hour interacting with these two people. But in such a short period of time, their personalities have been clearly revealed.
If these two people were a partnership, then the girl would usually be responsible for thinking and making plans.
Men are impulsive, but girls have very strong logical reasoning and emotional management abilities. As she said herself, her IQ is much higher than that of men, so it is enough to make up for the troubles men make and handle daily affairs.
But equally, it must be the man's job to take action among the two.
The girl's procrastination is at an advanced stage and there is no cure. Although the man's fiery personality is too impatient, on the other hand, it is also a sign of high mobility.
So if a girl has a backlog of affairs that she doesn’t want to move or simply wants to pretend she didn’t see it and ignore the past tense, then a man is needed to turn the tide...
Therefore, it can be said to be a tragedy that two people with such polar opposites come together. But if you don't take into account the factor that disputes may affect the tacit understanding of cooperation, the combination of this pair of partners is unexpectedly a perfect match.
After five minutes of waiting for that pair of partners, you accused me of procrastinating and I accused you of being a crooked building with a low IQ. Although the girl spoke slowly but sharply, she finally won. Then she decisively abandoned her partner, who had been beaten to death by her, and started to fight again. The focus of the conversation returned to Ye Shuang.
"Sister, everyone has secrets that are impossible to tell others honestly." Half of the girl's face was buried in the scarf. She looked extremely well-behaved, but her expression was completely calm and could not be called well-behaved: " We don’t want to investigate your skills, and I’m sure you don’t know our work yet…”
After a slight pause, the girl seemed to consider her tone and words, and then continued slowly: "So I can probably think of it this way - apart from knowing that each other is not an ordinary person, we actually don't have anything to be wary of. The other party’s reasons, let alone the conditions that must be opposed?”
"That's right." Ye Shuang can now automatically ignore the man. It's too hard to reason with him anyway, so she just pays attention to the girl's mood: "I don't have any curiosity in the first place, if you are willing to ignore me too That would be great. After all, we are just meeting each other by chance, there is really no need to look for trouble."
The man who was "looking for trouble" frowned and scratched his head: "I don't know why, but I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable."
Ye Shuang has nothing to say about this man's intelligence.
The sister also ignored the past. After reaching a consensus, she knew that Ye Shuang had no intention of continuing to investigate the details of the two of them, so the sister planned to end the matter here: "Then sister, if there are no other questions, can you please stop in front later? Let’s get off the bus somewhere.”
"Oh, okay." Ye Shuang didn't care. She was eager to send away two partners with mysterious backgrounds who could mean countless troubles.
... Yes, Ye Shuang originally thought so.
But before she reached the next stop, the call she received on her cell phone made her give up her original idea.
"I heard that you were hospitalized in a car accident?"
After the girl answered the phone, Ye Shuang clearly heard the familiar voice saying this from the other end.
The girl said "Yeah" slowly, and then she was silent for a long time before she realized that this answer could easily be misunderstood, so she added expressionlessly: "I lay in the hospital all night with low blood sugar, and a private car owner took me there. Yes, not being bumped into the hospital."
"..." Ye Shuang was almost expressionless. She really didn't expect to hear the voice of an acquaintance on the girl's phone.
So the next question is, what is the relationship between these two people
Soon the next sentence on the other side of the phone cleared Ye Shuang's doubts: "Oh, next time ask your partner not to send threatening text messages to my phone. Even if you are my sister, you will have to pay for repeatedly reporting false information to interfere with my schedule. Money."
The man whose ear was already attached to the back of the girl's phone quickly argued: "I was just worried that something would happen, so I wanted to notify you as soon as possible... Besides, that's not a threatening text message, right?"
The two brothers and sister on both ends of the radio wave ignored the noise at the same time. The girl said "Yeah" again: "It's okay, I'll hang up."
Then the phone hung up as expected.
After listening to the whole call, Ye Shuang sighed silently, turned the steering wheel, and the car that was about to stop at the parking spot swung its front and drove back into the traffic on the road.
The girl looked at Ye Shuang silently and expressed silent accusation.
Ye Shuang sighed again: "I think we need to get to know each other again... My name is Ye Shuang, and unfortunately I am the mid-level agent under your brother Han Chu."
The girl still had no reaction on her face, but the man jumped up after being stunned for a moment.
"Holy crap! Are you that perverted agent?"
"..." The girl silently turned her gaze to the man.
When the man froze, Ye Shuang was already happy: "Shall we find another place to sit?"
…
After recognizing their relatives, the relationship between the two parties changed from neutral to friendly.
Although some twists and turns were unexpected, Ye Shuang still felt that there was absolutely no harm in getting to know these two more people, considering the seemingly mysterious careers of the girl and the man.
She found a coffee shop and asked for an independent seat to sit down. After placing her order, she introduced herself again. In the meantime, Ye Shuang also called Han Chu to ask him to prove his identity.
The girl calmly confirmed that Ye Shuang was not lying, and then hung up the phone. Drink coffee slowly and eat cake slowly. After thinking and sorting out his thoughts for a few minutes, he finally looked up and seriously accused Ye Shuang in the man's cautious eyes: "You are my brother's subordinate and you still let me eat at a roadside stall?"
"...Who knew who you were at the beginning." Ye Shuang still occasionally felt helpless towards the girl's thinking: "Besides, I'm a newcomer and I haven't met you before, so it's okay. But Xiao Su... Oh, you were in my car just yesterday. The other girl I’m dating has been a member of the agency team for several years and still doesn’t recognize you, so that’s not our problem.”
It was obvious that the girl didn't usually like to communicate with her family members. Judging from the way the man casually fished out the truth serum, what the two of them were doing was not an aboveboard job.
Family members no longer interact with each other, so how can you blame your relatives' subordinates for not recognizing you
The girl thought for a while: "Okay, let's forget it this time."
"... Then how about I pay the bill this time?" Ye Shuang was speechless.
"That's not necessary." The girl took a small sip of the coffee. After taking a few sips, she put her hands on the cup to warm her hands. Then she turned to look at the man beside her: "Did you bring the catalog?"
"I didn't bring it with me. It's in the car." The man was very upset.
"... Electronic catalog?" The girl tilted her head and asked again after thinking about it.
The man muttered a few words, reluctantly took out his phone, tapped it left and right, and turned on Bluetooth: "Um... Ye Shuang, right? You turn on Bluetooth, and I'll send a file to you."
Ye Shuang followed the instructions and received a package of documents shortly after.
When she opened it, she saw a dazzling list of various products with prices marked on them. It was a catalog of goods, but the goods themselves left Ye Shuang speechless.
"I'm Han Shu." The girl nodded to Ye Shuang and introduced herself in a calm tone: "As you can see. My brother is a talent agency, and I am a product sales agency... Well, you can also think of it as Transshipment sales.”
The girl said something very horrifying in a very calm and gentle voice: "Guns, ammunition, illegal drugs, surveillance equipment, and various agents or anti-terrorism equipment...except that I don't sell atomic bombs, you can come to me if you need anything."
Ye Shuang: "..." Is the family background really so strong
The girl didn't seem to care about Ye Shuang's reaction. She lowered her eyes and continued to describe the content slowly: "If my brother's mid-level agent has equipment to apply for, he will apply with me, and then he will place an order with me. But since We just met, you can contact me directly in the future."
"Right." At this point, the girl remembered some details again, took out her mobile phone and finally looked up: "You can also leave me your mobile phone or email number. We will update the product catalog and send it to customers every quarter. Except for special products , and you can also do overseas shopping on the way." Anyway, we are using illegal transportation channels. When there is space for transportation in some purchase orders, it is not a problem to bring some odds and ends along the way.
Ye Shuang gave the phone number and email address without any expression. Looking at Han Shu taking notes carefully, she finally couldn't help but ask: "You brothers and sisters are so arrogant outside, do your parents know?"
"Huh? I know." Sister Han Shu didn't realize that this was a cold joke. She blinked and answered seriously: "When starting a business always had some difficulties, my family first took us to understand the market..."
hehe…
Ye Shuang had nothing to say.
After the girl thought she had expressed her kindness, her expression became visibly relaxed. Of course Ye Shuang also noticed this, so the next conversation became even more relaxed.
After half an hour of chatting, Ye Shuang not only learned that the girl's name was Han Shu and that she was Han Chu's cousin. At the same time, I finally learned that the man's name was Mo Bei, and he was the son of another agent under Han Chu. Because he accidentally discovered his father's secret part-time job during his youthful rebellious period, he set out on the wrong path and stepped firmly towards this job. A “cool” career…
Of course, the other party's youthful rebellious period was also quite long. Others could only be rebellious until high school, but he was rebellious until he graduated from college.
"Brother has been in Shanlin City during this time." Sister Han Shu forked a piece of cake, stuffed it into her small mouth and chewed it carefully for a while before looking at Ye Shuang in confusion: "Actually, I had planned to check on the situation after a while. After all, Shanlin City is not really developed, and it really doesn’t make sense to say that he is expanding his business... Later I learned that he had developed an intermediate agent, but when my brother upgraded his agent before, there was no such step-by-step teaching... "
Sister Han Shu worried seriously for a while: "Is it because your potential is particularly high? Or is it the opposite? Is it because your business ability is particularly worrying?"
Han Chu first came to Shanlin City to hide from his family, but in fact the trivial matters at home were not big problems at all. So everyone just thought he was looking for an excuse to run away, but they didn't expect that he would really stay in Shanlin City for so long... Everyone's initial inference was actually correct, but the twist was that Han Chu suddenly discovered that Ye Shuang could transform. Gender thing.
As a result, Han Chu's stay was extended. After noticing this, the Han family began to realize that something was wrong.
They couldn't analyze the reason for Han Chu's abnormality, and it was impossible for Han Chu to tell his family directly that he had discovered a pervert. So, under Han Chu's firm attitude of not wanting to give an answer, everyone became more and more concerned about the reason for the other party's abnormality.
Han Shu happened to run into Ye Shuang, and he happened to know that she was the agent of Shanlin City. With such favorable conditions at the right time and place, it would be weird not to take advantage of the opportunity to understand the situation: "Sister Ye, can you answer my question? My brother is staying in Shanlin City. What’s the reason?”
Ye Shuang was heartbroken: "Do you think I can analyze the problems that you guys couldn't figure out after decades of getting along with him and I've only known him for less than a year?"
"I originally guessed it was because of Antonis, but then I thought it didn't look like it." Han Shu bit his fork and frowned, thinking hard for a while: "If we reason from logic, the conditions for all possibilities are not sufficient. And if it is a breakaway There are unreasonable reasons beyond logic..."
Han Shu suddenly raised his head and carefully examined Ye Shuang for half a minute before hesitatingly said: "...Is it because of love?"
Ye Shuang: "..." That's enough! (To be continued)
