16. Special Status
In the training time that was not too long, Nangong was instilled with the most knowledge: rely on Xijing more. Although Nangong knows very well that Xijing is actually just a knife, it is really just a knife, even if it is a beautiful woman who is alive, it is actually just a knife. But I'm afraid that there will still be hesitation when it really comes to the time when you need to rely on Xijing.
According to the mutual restraint of the five elements, Nangong, who was temporarily determined to be earth, was forcibly granted a bunch of knowledge that was completely based on the law of "native gold". In other words, Nangong didn't learn a little bit of "cool special effects" similar to the "cool special effects" that the spirit mirror often used in the time after that, all he learned was the spells that made the demon sword in his hand temporarily become "stronger".
To put it simply, Nangong has become an assistant, and it is not a pure auxiliary that can hide behind the crowd. Although Nishitsu can fight with a sword alone, he certainly doesn't have the strength to concentrate on the sword form. Therefore, as the owner of Xijing, Nangong also needs to exercise her physical fitness like a warrior while doing assistance, and all this is to allow Xixing to exert her due strength.
Although there is no way to "eat" to replenish physical strength as before, even the current Xijing should not be underestimated.
"What's the matter, it's only been a few days, and you've already fallen in love with your unlucky senior sister?"
Splashing Mo, who is incarnated as a drag racing clan, is still concentrating on showing off her driving skills, while Banqing is very energetic, teasing Nangong who is looking out the window in a daze.
No, it's a little less spiritual, it should be said that the current half-sunny always vaguely shows a feeling of suppressed excitement.
"If you insist, it's not impossible to stay there."
"No...... Well, it's just a little worried, bad luck is the first thing to do. ”
Nangong sighed and took his thoughts away from the senior sister Yuzu pear who would mess up because of bad luck no matter what she did.
What awaits him after training is not a leisurely vacation, but a greater danger that must be faced. The next "practice" is not as good as the practice in training, and if you really eat "peanuts", you will definitely die.
"No one has been able to unravel the bad luck of yuzu pear until now. Otherwise, with all due respect, you will probably have to wait a month to see her. ”
Banqing tilted her head, "After all, she is a perfect woman, and her mother is much more powerful than me, the Inspector General." So even now, there are a few rich people who are not afraid of death who have been chasing pomelo pears. ”
"Hah...... That's right. Nangong didn't seem too surprised, Yuzu had also said before that she had decided to live in Banqing's hometown for a while, and there were many considerations, one of which was to avoid the "innocent brave" from suffering. The bad luck brought by Yuzu pear when she was far away from Banqing's hometown Nangong had seen it with her own eyes, and it was definitely the bad luck that would either kill or hurt if you were not careful.
"I don't have time to go back and can't be with you all the time." When the car was speeding into the city, Banqing, who was silent for a while, said, "I have things that I need to deal with here, and I also have my own considerations. Originally, the investigation and arrest of Ballet was just a problem that I had taken the time to settle with my own hands, and these matters were originally the job of your local ombudsman. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, it's my responsibility."
Nangong hurriedly waved his hand, "If I hadn't let her see her face at the beginning......"
"It doesn't have much to do with you, as long as they're still roaming around my territory, I won't let them feel comfortable." Banqing also seemed a little upset that Ballett had "played" her at the bar, "I'll take the time to investigate in my own way, after all, your lazy fox won't help at all." What you need to do is to continue to cultivate your body every day according to the previous method, and of course, the techniques that you have obtained from cramming Buddha feet in the past few days should also be reviewed frequently. But the most important thing is to protect your own life, not to disgrace me is also for your own good, after all, life is the only output, isn't it? ”
"Ah, good."
Banqing's slightly overly concerned made Nangong seem a little overwhelmed, especially along the way, Banqing was looking at him intentionally or unintentionally, and that contemplative expression showed that Banqing was mostly hesitating about what to decide.
"Lord, what's next?" While throwing Nangong a roll of his eyes, Splash Mo asked, "Do you send him home or leave him on the side of the road?" ”
Feed! It's too much to throw it on the side of the road! Send the Buddha to the West!
"Yes...... Whew, splash ink, go to the office first. ”
"Do as I am told." After nodding his head in agreement, Splash Mo also slowed down the car, and the familiar scenery crossed in front of Nangong, which also made Nangong feel a little home.
And Banqing, who was sitting next to Nangong, also seemed to have decided on the troubles along the way, patted Nangong on the shoulder and said, "Nangong Inspector, let me ask you a question." Are you still satisfied with your current job? ”
"Satisfied, very satisfied."
Although he didn't know why Banqing asked such a question, Nangong still honestly said what he thought in his heart.
It is true that while the process of being an ombudsman certainly comes with danger, this does not affect its meaning to oneself itself. To be able to turn your dreams and pursuits into reality and realize them is nothing to regret in itself.
"No, I don't mean the passion, I mean the work." Banqing sighed, "Don't you think your current job is ...... Is it a little too dangerous? You know, your commander is very unreliable, she puts all the work on her subordinates. In other places, this is the complete opposite, where most of the work is centered on the local inspector general, and the ombudsman like you is like an intern. ”
"Ah, I don't feel like this." Nangong scratched her head, although she had to admit that she was very lazy about the thousand-faced Nangong, but so far there have been no particularly big mistakes.
"And I'm familiar with the youkai too, so there's basically no problem."
"Phew, I see, you have no intention of transferring. But it's okay......" Banqing was silent for a while, and then looked at Nangong with a majesty that made Nangong have to stand upright, "Nangong Supervisor, are you interested in being my direct supervisor?" ”
"Lord!?"
"Don't talk too much about splashing ink." After reprimanding Splash Mo in a rare stern tone, Banqing continued to explain, and her gaze never left Nangong's eyes, as if she wanted to see through the depths of Nangong's soul.
"The direct prosecutor, as the name suggests, will be my direct subordinate. However, this does not stipulate that you must act together, so Nangong, there is no problem for you to continue to stay in the territory of a thousand faces. ”
"That ......"
"The only difference is that you only need to follow my orders in the future. As for Thousand Faces, while you can continue to follow her orders on the surface, you have actually jumped out of her jurisdiction. You will theoretically no longer have any subordinate relationships, but if you have to be ranked, you will be ranked above her. ”
Banqing's expression turned cold, "Of course, it's the same as the literal meaning, you can't say this identity at will." No one can. ”
"Isn't this a spy?"
"Whew, there's no problem with your understanding. But this spy is not the spy who does bad things in the TV series. ”
Banqing's expression relaxed slightly, but her eyes that were pressing on Nangong were still forcing Nangong to agree to this proposal.
"After all, we're the agency that manages the monsters, not the spies who spy on intelligence, do we? And even if you can only obey my orders after agreeing, I won't bother you too much in the short term, and you can still be your apparent 'ordinary inspector'. So, what do you mean? Nangong? ”
