Chapter 63: An Unsmooth First Encounter

In the face of chaos within his own team, the way to deal with it is to let it go.

Just go if you want to go?

When this is a makeshift hotel where you can sleep for a night for a few shillings?

Donald took a step forward and stood in front of this strong man named Burns, no matter what Horn Shelley thought, at least he had to make sure that the team would not fall apart on the first day he came, otherwise it would be a problem to stay well, let alone do the mission.

After watching the play, Donald thought he should be on the stage.

"This ...... I just joined the company today and don't know what's going on, but with all due respect, I don't think moving out and moving to another place will solve any problems, and we're going to have to get to know each other on a new mission, otherwise we won't be able to name each other when we go to the area near Dmingham tomorrow, isn't it embarrassing?"

In the middle of the conversation, Donald briefly turned on his quick thinking, and he quickly remembered what the captain had said in the conference hall, that one of Horn Shelley's team had died in the mission, and another had quit.

Notice that someone has already quit the team, and this Mr. Burns in front of him, if he hates Horn Shelley so much, why doesn't he quit the team?

The reasons can be varied.

Maybe he didn't pass the formalities, so he couldn't quit the team, but he didn't want to resign, because leaving the Abnormal Adjustment Bureau was equivalent to giving up this golden job, and there was no need to ruin his future in order to hate someone, right?

Perhaps he still has some expectations for Horn Shelley, and wants to stimulate the other party by moving out, which is the same as the baby crying to get the attention of adults.

Of course, there could be other reasons, but one thing is for sure, Pence did not quit the team, which meant that he knew very well what he needed to do, and since he was a member of the Anomaly, he had to accept the dispatch of the Deviant.

Throughout the ages, when internal contradictions have intensified to a certain extent, whether it is class contradictions, economic contradictions, or strange contradictions such as ideology, there has been an extremely effective solution, and that is to publicize external contradictions.

It is best to have external contradictions, and if there are no external contradictions, then it is necessary to forcibly create external contradictions.

So the task that was originally pushed away by Horn Shelley became something that would be carried out tomorrow in Donald's mouth, and his reason was also extremely legitimate, no matter what contradictions there were between Pence and Horn Shelley, at least it was completely out of step with him and Stephanie.

Choosing to stay away from the team at this time can lead to unfamiliarity with your new companions, which can lead to failure of the mission, followed by punishment, or simply death......

Is it worth it?

As long as your brain is fine, you should know how to choose, and there is no need to live with your own life, right?

Pence looked honest, this ability to think was still there, and there was a wavering look on his face, Donald took this opportunity to turn his head slightly and pass a look to Stephanie, who was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood.

"Mr. Pence, I'm a newcomer, and there are a lot of things I don't understand, so can you please don't go?

What Pence needed now was a step, and it was a bit aggressive for Donald to speak again.

The expression on Horn Shelley's face didn't seem like a retention.

At this time, the role of Stephanie Quake, a beauty, is reflected.

What could be more effective against such an honest man than a beautiful woman with a hot body but I still feel sorry for?

"This ...... Well, since I have a task tomorrow, I won't move, I'll go put things. ”

Burns was a little embarrassed at this time, and retreated with his suitcase in both hands, and the girl who had picked it up before glanced at Stephanie, her eyes were more focused on her figure, and then she looked down at herself, and then looked at Donald with surprised eyes.

"Stephanie, you're doing a good job, and I'm glad you understand what I mean, otherwise something would have gone wrong. ”

Donald waited for Pence to walk away before speaking.

Stephanie nodded hurriedly, looking at Donald with a hint of kindness in her eyes...... No one hates compliments from others.

Donald also had a smile on his face, his purpose was halfway accomplished.

Why do you say this word of praise?

Quite simply, he wants to establish his position!

Through previous observations, Donald could vaguely guess that Stephanie Quake was an unconfident woman.

This kind of person will also have another problem, lack of assertiveness!

Donald gestured to her with a look in his eyes, in a way with a subtle hint of asking for help, and the latter did so after understanding, which was consent.

At this point, the two have established a kind of partnership.

At this moment, Donald said this in the form of praise, and Stephanie responded, imagine what kind of situation would it be?

There will be such a formulaic so-and-so among friends, are you really good at this kind of thing?

This kind of sentence pattern is more common at work, especially from superiors to subordinates, isn't it?

On a psychological level, there is a new connection between the two - the subordinate relationship, which is only a prototype at the moment, but it is foreseeable that this relationship will inevitably be strengthened by Donald, because the ability to achieve this effect is not accidental, but the result of Donald's deliberate creation.

It is an invisible law that the weak obey the orders of the strong, the subordinates obey the superiors, and the incompetent are attached to the capable.

Donald is the best of this class of newcomers, he is a power-level wizard and a level 2 inscriptionist, causing many inquisitors to compete for it.

Stephanie, on the other hand, is one of the chosen remainders, her abilities are obviously not favored, and she is not confident in herself.

There is a world of difference between the two.

Naturally, Donald dominated the correspondence between the two sides, and Stephanie herself did not hate this situation, she was a newcomer, and she had a strong person to carry her, so she could be regarded as having found a backer.

An inscription wizard who can speak well and has great potential is a new companion like himself, and a captain who is full of alcohol and can't even manage the team members.

She naturally knows what to choose.

"Captain Shelley, please forgive me for making a decision in a hurry, I don't want to see the team fall apart like this, I think letting Pence go today is really irreparable, I think no matter what kind of misunderstanding, at least we can build a new friendship and tacit understanding by fighting side by side in the mission, isn't it?"

The benefits of agile thinking were on full display, and in a matter of minutes, Donald had put together a rhetoric that would convince Horn Shelley.

As an investigator.

As the captain of this team.

Horn Shelley must forgive Donald for this behavior, and now it is Donald who has eased the conflict and provided a way to solve the problem.

And that's exactly what happened.

"Thank you for your help, tomorrow's mission...... As usual. ”

Shelley gave Donald a deep look and said.

"Don't wait outside, come in. ”

The girl who had persuaded Pence before was happy that the situation had improved, and she was also full of affection for Donald and Stephanie's initiative to help.

Walking into this villa, Donald really feels a sense of elegance, the exquisite interior decoration, the various artworks hanging on the four walls, and even the smooth marble floor under his feet all tell the truth of this villa.

"How's it going? Our office is beautiful, isn't it, it's the home of our captain, Horne Shelley, who has taken it out as our team's residence. ”

This girl has a cheerful and lively personality, to put it bluntly, she is a little heartless, in the current situation of the team, her mood is still optimistic, judging from her remarks, she should be a supporter of Horn Shelley.

It's just that the fact that he used his residence as the team's station surprised Donald a little.

A villa of this magnitude must have been the main home of the Horne Shelley family, who was willing to make it the home of the party...... Is he really not interested in this team?

If it really doesn't matter, why not just rent a commercial villa outside?

Now that I think about it, it's no wonder that Pence wanted to move as a stimulus just now, it turned out that this was Horn Shelley's home, and moving out from here naturally carried a layer of rupture meaning.

"It looks like we have guests visiting. ”

Just as Donald was observing the interior of the villa, a middle-aged man with a thin figure and good spirits came out of the villa.

This should be the man left in Horn Shelley's team.

Donald looked at the middle-aged man, and quickly withdrew his gaze, not because he didn't think this person was anything to be noticeable, but because Donald couldn't see his depth clearly.

This middle-aged man is definitely not simple.

Burns hadn't heard a word of his advice when he was about to leave the villa, and the group hadn't seen him after talking at the door for so long.

He didn't choose to show up until everything had come to an end and they started to enter the villa, and judging from his attitude towards several people, he didn't have the same dislike for Shelley as Burns, nor did he choose to support and help Shelley stabilize the situation like this girl.

Obviously, he didn't care if Horn Shelley abandoned his teammates or what would become of the team.

Such a person is the most feared, and because he wants nothing and seems indifferent to everything, Donald cannot see any useful information in him.

"Okay, this time we have two newcomers to our team, and then we have to introduce ourselves to each other, bring our own specialties to introduce, there will be a mission tomorrow, and we may have to discuss the mission situation together. ”

Controversy aside, the team's first encounter didn't go well.
