Lin Fan was stunned for a moment, then he said with a mixture of laughter and tears, "Have you discussed changing my last name with my dad?"
Jin Sichen smiled without answering and sat down next to him.
"Have you eaten?" John Woo asked him.
"Eat it now." Jin Sichen glanced at the various foods on the table, picked out the ones he liked, and ate them.
John Woo didn't say anything to him. Anyway, there wasn't enough food on the table for Lin Fan to eat, and he would have to get more later. It didn't make much difference whether Jin Sichen ate it or not.
Lin Fan held the bowl and asked, "What mission? Go to the Ugly Woman's Cave?"
We had already said this at the meeting last night, there shouldn't be a second task suddenly popping up.
"Yeah," Jin Sichen replied, "I spent a long time reading the information this morning. Wow, you guys went on a mission and dug up information about someone who's been dead for thousands of years?"
"How could she be dead?" Lin Fan gulped down his soup and mumbled, "She was just sealed. Where's Sleeping Beauty?"
"Let's sleep with grandma?" Jin Sichen smiled mischievously. "I heard that grandma is hard to deal with. You three are going there, and two of you are sleeping?"
The news that Sister Xu was pulled back in a coma spread quickly. After those who had connections in various departments of the institute heard the news, they all went to visit her if they had time.
They happened to meet the rescue team conducting a physical examination nearby, and from the vivid descriptions, one can imagine how the mission of the three of them was spread.
Jin Sichen listened to the general idea with a skeptical attitude and thought it was an exaggeration. However, when he received the task information in the morning, he found that it was not complete.
"Actually, I was lying down too." Lin Fan moved another piece of fried chicken to the table and began to chew on it. "Then I was woken up by lightning."
Speaking of being struck by lightning, John Woo immediately pictured an overwhelming, blindingly white electric grid. The rumbling of thunder still seemed to echo in his ears.
He looked up at Lin Fan and heard Jin Sichen ask beside him, "What does it feel like to be struck by lightning?"
How could an average person get struck by lightning? Even if they did, most wouldn't have the chance to describe the feeling. So, I'm still a bit curious.
"Hmm..." Lin Fan said without thinking. "At first I didn't know what it was, but then it just started to feel numb. It felt like my body wasn't a single piece, but rather tiny molecules floating around, dancing... That's how I felt."
After saying that, he focused on the fried chicken in his hand and took two or three bites of each. Oh my god, it smells so good.
Wu Yusen had heard her say this yesterday and didn't feel anything. Jin Sichen raised an eyebrow when she heard this for the first time.
But he didn't know much about it, so he didn't say much. Instead, he talked about the afternoon's mission. "There are twenty of us. I'll go with you in the car when the time comes."
People always tend to be with people they are familiar with.
There was no one in the Special Affairs Office that Jin Sichen didn't know, but he was more inclined to be closer to Lin Fan.
"When are we leaving?" Lin Fan quickened his eating pace.
"Don't worry, it's still early. Let's leave at 3:30." Jin Sichen advised her.
John Woo was already looking at the mission notification.
Hearing there was no rush, Lin Fan resumed his leisurely eating pace. "Honestly, I don't really like going underground."
"Aren't we underground too?" Jin Sichen said with a joking smile.
"Oh, you know what I mean." Lin Fan glared at him. "I'm talking about those underground places that are pitch black, filled with traps, and possibly even monsters."
The lights were on almost everywhere in the special affairs office. Even if she didn't recognize the people she met, they were all colleagues. They were all very friendly to her, so why should she resist?
"It's okay." Jin Sichen certainly knew what she meant, "Just go this once. If you don't want to go in the future, then don't go."
"That also requires the cooperation of the female clown." John Woo looked at the task requirements carefully and added without raising his head.
"Do you think the ugly woman will keep her promise?" Lin Fan was actually a little worried.
She has seen too many people go back on their word.
Although everyone is a different individual, it is really difficult for most people to trust a person in a society full of lies.
"Who knows?" Jin Sichen shrugged. "I haven't seen the sleeping grandmother yet. It's not accurate to judge based solely on your description in the report."
Lin Fan gave him a "huh" and didn't ask any further questions.
When it comes to professionalism, Jin Sichen is never vague.
"But I'm still quite optimistic." Jin Sichen smiled and said, "After all, the world is full of glitz and glamour, and she's just an old lady."
"Let me remind you, the old lady you're talking about is actually quite young." Wu Yusen looked up and interrupted, "She should be around twenty years old. If you don't count the years, she should still be a little girl."
"Girls are better." Jin Sichen smiled even more happily.
As long as he wants, no girl will feel unhappy when talking to him.
Young, naive, and a little naive, Jin Sichen felt more confident about this mission.
Lin Fan didn't like to listen to them talking about girls or grandmothers, so he ate his meal with a grunt.
After lunch, we rested for a while and soon it was time to set off.
Because the target this time was the female clown, all the elites from the second and third divisions were dispatched.
That is, the supernatural department and the ghost department.
Lin Fan didn't know all 20 people. But everyone knew her. After a cheerful greeting, they didn't say much. Three or five people shared a car and set off.
This time the destination was clear and the journey was much faster than before.
When it was getting dark, they entered the village again.
Because the road to the pond was far from where they lived, no one in the village noticed their convoy.
"By the way, are Ma Baobao and the others all normal?" Lin Fan then remembered their previous mission targets and couldn't help but sigh that he was too unprofessional.
"It's back to normal. It's back to normal since the domain was lifted." Wu Yusen paid special attention to this and replied directly. "The villagers are living a normal life now and don't remember the incident in the ugly female cave at all."
Yesterday, on the way back, after reporting the situation to Zhu Cunjun, the psychological team was pulled over to do some work. It was said that they had just left.
"That's good." Lin Fan responded happily, secretly reminding himself to remember to pay attention to the follow-up in the future.
The group arrived at the location and got their equipment from the car.
Lin Fan didn't want to bring any weapons this time, as it would be inconvenient for her to transform.
It was John Woo who silently carried it.
He didn't do this entirely for Lin Fan, but after the last time, he found that cold weapons were sometimes indeed more useful than guns.
If you can't find a suitable one in a short time, you might as well borrow one that is already available.
Lin Fan didn't care and jumped into the pond with everyone else.
I hadn't walked far when the scene in front of me suddenly lit up. Twenty or thirty people suddenly appeared out of nowhere. There were also a number of boxes on the ground, probably equipment, and there were quite a few of them.
Lin Fan was stunned, wondering if he hadn't paid attention while walking just now and if he had missed something.
Jin Sichen whispered in her ear, "It's a trick, a trick used by the institute."
Oh, I understand.
Enter the village quietly and don't shoot with guns.
A familiar figure walked out of the crowd and approached Lin Fan and the others.
"Minister Lin, Minister Jin, Wu Teqin, and all colleagues at the Special Affairs Office, thank you for your hard work along the way."
Lin Fan looked at Cen Fangyuan's sincere smile and suddenly understood why he could be so secretive about the National Taiwan University.
This kind of work efficiency and this kind of comprehensive and appropriate greeting are not something that everyone can achieve.
Ah, the place I live in is going to be demolished. They came to measure the house yesterday. What a turmoil! My good life is now in turmoil again.
Everyone was whispering downstairs, so I ran down to listen, and the more I listened, the more confused I became.
My head hurts. Why are there so many things going on?
