.Just after three o'clock in the afternoon, Paper Man had already arrived at the door of the second branch of Guanzhi County HL North in a familiar way. He was still wearing the shabby windbreaker and a peaked cap on his head. Although he is recovering from a serious injury, it does not affect the performance of his abilities, so he is still here.
Zhi Xia had a pretty good impression of the person named Shi Shi. Even with his obvious character flaws, he was more approachable than someone who spoke in an official tone.
The front desk staff was also familiar with Zhi Xia. They exchanged a few words and Zhi Xia went in on his own. Anyway, he ran around the office every two days, as diligently as if he was working at his mother-in-law's house, leading the way. Everything is superfluous.
As usual, when he arrived at the place, Paper Man went in without knocking, and saw this scene: The waiter was lying on Ma Long's desk doing sit-ups, and Ma Long was pressing his legs.
In the first few seconds, Zhixia felt that his brain might have been damaged by the blood owl, or that he had some serious mental sequelae, or else he was still in a coma in the hospital, and everything in front of him It's all a vegetative nightmare.
However, he didn't wander for too long in his confusion. The waiter saw him and got down from the table: "You're here. Very good. Come with me."
The waiter led the way, and Paper Man and Ma Long followed behind. Paper Man looked at Ma Long with a very strange look, and he couldn't tell whether it was disgust or contempt. Ma Long put on an expression like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water, and calmly picked up a cigar. : "After he came back from the hospital, he came to my office to wait for you. About thirty seconds after sitting down, he said with a very frightened expression and an imminent tone that his life was being wasted."
Paper Man squinted at Ma Long and said in a doubtful tone: "So he did sit-ups on your desk for two hours?"
"No, first it's a return run, then a handstand, then push-ups, then a return squat jump, a return handstand walk..." Ma Long's eyes were full of vicissitudes: "In every exercise, a set of sit-ups is interspersed as an adjustment. rest."
The corner of Zhi Xia's mouth kept quivering: "Have you told him about the gym on the second floor..."
At this time, the waiter interrupted their conversation again with the speed of a submachine gun: "It is most efficient to wait for you to come in in the office, and then immediately go to the testing location underground. If I go to the gym on the second floor to exercise, from From the time you arrive at the colonel's office, to the time he informs me, to the time I arrive in the office, and then go underground, from the time of communication to the extra linear movement distance, about eight to ten minutes will be wasted.
During this time, I can choose to listen to two songs, have lunch, go to the toilet once, do eye exercises twice, play three rounds of Landlords, read about 3,000 words of written materials, etc., not to mention Many of the above things can be done together. "
Ma Long covered his face and shook his head: "That's how he answered me after I told him the location of the gym."
Paper Man sighed: "Okay, I kind of understand your mood."
The waiter still said without looking back; "Life is very short, gentlemen, use every minute and every second effectively and do more things than others in the same time. That is a kind of profit. There is an old saying in the East that every inch of time is worth an inch of gold. From this perspective, I am a billionaire while you are poor."
Paper Man shrugged: "I once heard a nobleman say something like this two years ago, and I can quote it here. What he meant was probably, 'The poor deserve to be penniless, and the rich deserve to be wealthy.'"
The Attendant replied: "Don't you think people who hold this view are very disgusting?"
Paper Man said: "Of course it's disgusting, that son of a bitch, but you have to admit, this is reality."
Shi Shi glanced back at Paper Man: "I understand, your point of view is that no matter what, you and I can't agree on the concept of time, so let's just let you die in poverty, right? ?”
Zhixia smiled and said: "Hahaha, it's great that you understand."
Ma Long blew out a smoke ring and said with a smile, "I'm hopeless. Don't sympathize with me."
The waiter had an incomprehensible expression, and he couldn't find the point of laughter at all; "You are obviously older than me, but you are still wasting your time needlessly. Your attitude towards work and life is really hopeless." As he spoke, he stood in front of a door, put the magnetic card in front of the scanner, and the door opened automatically.
"Okay, the four minutes and twenty-three seconds of chatting during the walk are over. Please cooperate with me to complete the work as soon as possible. My plan is to get on the plane before five o'clock, complete the written report during the journey, and fax it to the headquarters. From now on, we will land directly at the vacation spot. I hope you won’t disrupt the latest schedule I just completed when I was doing sit-ups." The waiter led the paper man into a square room with a length, width and height of fifty meters. Big house.
Malone stopped at the door without going in and said, "I'm in the observation room next door. You can talk to me directly through the radio." Then, the electronic door closed.
The room is surrounded by dark metal, and the lighting equipment on the top seems to be able to provide various tones of light, but now it is just ordinary, soft white light.
Zhi Xia has never been here before, but he has heard that many HL branches have such a testing room for ability users to battle. In an emergency, this kind of room can also be nuclear-proof and air-raid-proof. , anti-virus outbreaks and other special circumstances.
"If I want to test my limits, I still need something." Paper Man said.
"Everything is ready." The waiter shouted: "Colonel Malone, please bring in the prepared paper."
Malone's response came over the radio: "Watch your step."
The floor in the middle of the room opened in response, and a full ten cubic meters of white office paper neatly stacked rose up.
Paper Man whispered: "Man, are you sure this room can withstand enough? If this branch is destroyed, Jim will go crazy like an alcoholic."
"I can hear you! Asshole!" Malone cursed on the radio.
The waiter said: "Don't waste any more time, Officer Ness. People can make steel, but they can't break it with their fists. In the same way, since we can make this metal, we have absolute confidence, as long as it is not above the level of ferocious It is impossible for a person with abilities to destroy this house, otherwise the criminals with abilities in Tide Prison would have collectively escaped from the prison long ago."
At this time, the paper in front of Zhi Xia had floated away on its own, rose into the air, and began to condense and form: "Then if there is a person with the ability of 'fierce', how should the test be conducted with his consent?"
Shi Shi replied calmly: "This information cannot be disclosed to people of your status yet. If you want to know, you can ask me again when you reach that level."
But the papers under the control of the Paper Man gradually merged into a giant beast, with teeth that can separate tendons and bones, claws that can grasp and support 緷緷, its spine is like cast iron, its tail is like a steel whip, its eyes are like golden eyes, and there is a king on its forehead. pattern; this creature that is vertical, leaping, leaping, ferocious, ruthless, cruel, and violent all rolled into one is... a paper tiger.
"The last time you fought against a criminal at risk level four, you seemed to have used a dragon. Which mimic creature is your special move?" Toki asked.
Zhi Xia said: "The tiger is perched on the mountain, and the dragon is swimming in the sea."
"I understand, you are saying that it is more appropriate to use a tiger in the current environment." Shi Shi put his hands in his pockets, without any intention of moving or making preparations, and said directly: "Then, please attack quickly. Come here, I'm in a hurry."
Before he finished speaking, the paper tiger suddenly came forward. The paper man just said: "Don't die."
Shi Shi stood upright on one leg with his left foot, and raised his right leg slowly. When the giant tiger came in front of him, he kicked his legs, and the giant tiger was kicked into thousands of pieces of paper, which exploded in the air. .
Paper Man's eyes widened, as the scene when the Blood Owl defeated the paper dragon seemed to be repeated. Unexpectedly, there was more than one person in the world who could smash his own paper beast with just strength.
The expression on the waiter's face showed that he thought this matter was no big deal. After regaining his feet, he asked: "I have already experienced cats that are at the top of the food chain. The impact just now represents your strongest strength." Destructive, right?"
Paper Man answered bluntly: "Yes, that's my limit."
Shi Shi walked forward slowly: "Now please use those pieces of paper to form the strongest defense and receive my punch."
"Okay." Paper Man rejoined the paper controls to form a pyramid-shaped shield that floated in front of him.
After more than ten seconds, the waiter asked: "Is it done?"
Zhi Xia said: "Let's take action."
There was no sound from the punch, and Paper Man could not catch Shi Shi's movements. He only felt a wave of air erupting from the point of impact, sweeping through the entire testing room like a violent wind. Two seconds later, cracks began to appear from the top of the paper pyramid, but it did not completely collapse, but most of it was broken, leaving the bottom edge still intact.
The waiter said: "Very well, thank you very much for your cooperation, Officer Ness. Finally, I have a question." As he spoke, he walked towards the door, not wanting to waste a minute: "Assume the power of my punch It’s one hundred, what was the last blow that the Blood Owl hit you with?”
Zhi Xia thought for a moment, but the waiter had already walked out of the house. Before the electronic door closed, Zhi Xia replied: "At least more than five hundred."
"Thank you, goodbye." After the waiter said this, the door behind him just closed.
Zhixia took a long breath: "Huh... who are these people..."
At this time, Malone's voice came from the radio again: "Elot, I just received an urgent message. You have to come and listen. Meet me in my office."
… …
At the same time, Shi Shi was walking quickly in a deserted corridor. He took out the mobile phone in his arms and dialed a number using the speed dial button. After only three seconds, the other party picked up and a voice said: ;"Hello, Deputy Director, may I have any instructions?"
The waiter replied: "Tell the old man that an indirect assessment of the Blood Owl's combat ability has been made, and I will write a written material to him later. As for Eliot Ness, as expected, he has not been included in the file. Value. I will continue to take leave after submitting the report, please do not contact me again."
