Chapter 21: Rejection
"What's going on?"
Taking advantage of Chen Molin's efforts to prepare materials, Sun Peng's brows were tightly locked, and his tone was also very unkind: "What's wrong with the people at the headquarters?" We are from the Intelligence Division, so why should we participate in such a pure arrest operation? Besides, even if the headquarters doesn't have time to send people, the local public security system can intervene, right? ”
"Hehe, maybe there are other difficulties."
Very sensitive to Sun Peng's displeasure, Zhao Shusen smiled slightly: "On the one hand, the combat power of the local public security system is limited, and there may be no suitable manpower, on the other hand, the time is indeed tight, and we happen to be in Donglin, if it is not a particularly troublesome task, it is nothing to help, right?" ”
Sun Peng couldn't figure it out, but Zhao Shusen's heart was as clear as a mirror at this time. Under normal circumstances, an arrest like this will definitely not require agents from the intelligence department, and even if they take the initiative to ask for battle, they rarely agree, but if it is put on Sun Peng, it will be another matter.
Sun Peng's performance in the assessment is really outstanding!
directly knocked down the examiner in actual combat combat, scored a full score in shooting, and added a one-on-twelve in the team confrontation, which gave Sun Peng the halo of a super newcomer on his head early. This kind of ability, not to mention an ordinary intelligence agent, even in a strongman-filled operation, is enough to become the trump card of an action team!
Zhao Shusen specially called Shangguan Cai before, and Zhilu Dao This support task was directly notified from above, and it seems that someone wants to see if Sun Peng, who is invincible in the assessment, is also so good in the actual battle.
Shangguan Cai's own words also vaguely revealed a little bit of interest.
Zhao Shusen is the same, so he tried his best to guide Sun Peng at this time, hoping that he could take the initiative to take over this task. However, to Zhao Shusen's disappointment, Sun Peng didn't have this consciousness at all, and at this time, all his thoughts were on those three women, how could he have time to assist in any arrest tasks? So after just a little silence, he shook his head and said indifferently: "I'm sorry Mr. Zhao, if you personally want to participate in the action, I won't stop you, but I personally don't have any interest!" Also, was it an order to participate in this operation? ”
"Well, no."
Slightly stunned, Zhao Shusen hurriedly explained.
"Then I refuse to participate in this mission!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Sun Peng shook his head directly.
"Refuse?"
After hearing Sun Peng's words, Zhao Shusen's expression immediately sank.
For old-school agents like Zhao Shusen, agents are born for the mission, especially when the mission is imminent. So after hearing Sun Peng's words, the good impression he had formed in the past few days was ruined a lot.
But Sun Peng didn't pay attention to Zhao Shusen's expression, or he didn't care at all if he noticed it, but nodded and said lightly: "Yes, I refuse!" I came to Donglin for the last assessment, and I am not even an official intelligence agent, so I have no obligation to participate in this mission in any way! ”
"But you'll soon be an official agent!"
Zhao Shusen, who was a little unacceptable in his heart, said in a deep voice.
"But at least not yet!"
Sun Peng didn't have any intention of compromise, and said calmly: "As a member of the Ministry of State Security, I know very well where my responsibilities lie!" Even if I were an employee of the Archives Center, I would have participated in the action if there had been a clear order from above, but if it was just for my personal opinion, then I'm sorry, I have only one answer! ”
"This ......"
Seeing Sun Peng's calm expression at this time, Zhao Shusen's brows furrowed, and he was suddenly a little in a dilemma, because he knew that what he thought was a simple matter was now in trouble.
Judging from the meaning of Shangguan Cai's phone call, she hoped that Zhao Shusen could persuade Sun Peng to take the initiative to take over this task, and Zhao Shusen had also worked hard since the morning meeting. But seeing Sun Peng's expression and tone at this moment, he didn't feel that he had the slightest hope. Although this young man has just graduated from college for a few months, after a few days of contact, Zhao Shusen has begun to slowly understand some of his principles of dealing with people.
Sun Peng decided something, and it was not easy to change his mind.
Besides, what Sun Peng said just now is indeed reasonable, even if Zhao Shusen is not satisfied in his heart, he doesn't dare to say it directly!
The key lies in the national security system.
No matter how good his ability is, Sun Peng is just a prospective agent, and participating in the operation itself does not meet the relevant regulations. Therefore, it is simply impossible to give a formal order as he said, because no one dares to bear the serious consequences caused by this!
National security agents sacrifice every year, but such sacrifices are unacceptable.
It is conceivable that if Shangguan Cai issued such a formal order, it would be fine if everything went smoothly, but if Sun Peng had an accident during the operation at that time......
Even if the above has acquiesced, who will appease the emotions of the other agents?
To be able to join the Ministry of National Security and participate in all kinds of dangerous operations, the agents have naturally been mentally prepared for a long time, but such a senseless sacrifice, no matter what aspect they consider, the agents will probably not turn a blind eye, after all, no one wants this kind of thing to happen to them in the future!
That's a big problem!
So whether it is above or Shangguan Cai, at most, they can only hope that Sun Peng himself will ask to participate in such an action, give a formal order or something, don't even think about it!
"How do you convince this kid?"
Frowning, Zhao Shusen's brain spun rapidly.
This kind of thing has not happened before, and newcomers who perform particularly well tend to get more attention, and this attention is naturally good and bad. Just like Sun Peng's situation, there are a large number of people participating in the operation, and it is rare for their lives to be in danger if they fail, but if they succeed, they will naturally show their personal strength better! So under normal circumstances, it is almost never a newcomer who will refuse such a request, like a few young people who are performing well now, such as Tian Feng from the Operations Department, who also encountered this situation back then.
If you perform well, the level of attention above will be different in the future.
But just when Zhao Shusen frowned and pondered, Sun Peng had already stood up: "Teacher Zhao, I'm sorry, I still have some things to deal with, if there is nothing else, I'll leave first." ”
"Huh? Let's go? ”
Before his brain could react for a while, Zhao Shusen was stunned again.
Nodding, Sun Peng smiled slightly: "Well, I don't have any interest in this task, so I won't wait to see the specific information, of course, if the above requires me to participate, please give me a formal order, I will definitely go all out at that time!" ”
Li Ying and the other three were still in a coma, and because of Qin Sha's special identity, the longer the time dragged on, the greater the commotion would be, and Sun Peng naturally wanted to go back to deal with them immediately.
"Uh......"
Zhao Shusen never thought that Sun Peng, this kid, stood up and was leaving!
The first reaction was naturally to leave Sun Peng behind, but after opening his mouth, Zhao Shusen found that he couldn't find a suitable reason!
Command?
Sun Peng said very clearly, participating in the operation requires at least a formal order from Shangguan Cai, although Zhao Shusen's level is very high, but he does not have this qualification.
Request?
If you want Sun Peng to stay first, you can only ask Zhao Shusen to see his attitude, but in that case, I am afraid that this matter can only be completely public!
With a wry smile, Zhao Shusen found that he really couldn't find any good way to face this newcomer with intelligence. No matter how unruly an ordinary newcomer is, he at least understands that only the old detective is the first time, but this Sun Peng is too assertive!
But......
"Sun Peng."
Just as Sun Peng was about to leave, Zhao Shusen groaned slightly, but still stopped him: "You are a smart young man, I think you should understand many things without explaining in detail, right?" ”
"...... are you referring to"
Stopping, the corners of Sun Peng's mouth curved slightly, and he asked with a smile.
After shaking his head with a wry smile, Zhao Shusen sighed lightly and said calmly: "To tell the truth, your strength is very strong, and your potential is also good, and you are very valued by the above, so this mission is actually to test your true level." Although there are some dangers, they are definitely within the controllable range, and if you perform well, the road ahead will be much easier...... Do you understand what I'm saying? ”
"Well, I see what you mean."
After pondering for a moment, Sun Peng nodded.
Zhao Shusen's eyes lit up suddenly, and he hurriedly asked, "Then ...... mission this time?"
"I'm sorry!"
Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Sun Peng shook his head again and said slightly apologetically: "Mr. Zhao, although I understand what you mean, I really have no interest in this task!" So...... I'm very sorry, but I still say that, unless there is a formal order from the director, I will refuse to participate in this arrest! ”
"But do you understand the consequences?"
Zhao Shusen was really anxious this time, and asked with a frown.
"The consequences?"
The movement of the whole body stopped, and Sun Peng's eyes narrowed slightly.
Nodding, Zhao Shusen said solemnly: "Although your choice is very reasonable, and the above cannot force you to participate in this operation, don't forget, this will greatly affect their evaluation of you!" ”
"So what? Fire me? ”
The corners of Sun Peng's mouth moved, and he said lightly.
Zhao Shusen shook his head, sighed lightly and said: "That's not it, after all, you haven't done anything wrong, but in this case, your future development will be ......."
No matter what Sun Peng's thoughts are, he didn't give face to the leaders after all!
After saying a few words, Zhao Shusen thought that Sun Peng would seriously consider it, but he didn't expect that it would only take two or three seconds at most, and Sun Peng suddenly smiled. And Zhao Shusen could see that Sun Peng's smile had absolutely no reluctance, as if he had really heard some good news.
Turning in the direction of the gate, Sun Peng waved his hand lightly while taking a step: "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, but to be honest, compared to Director Shangguan and they sit in the office every day, I think it's quite good to be an ordinary detective on a mission......
