Chapter 32: The "Man in Black"
The fireworks are raging, and people are more likely to be manic in the crying and shouting, but Wu Sijie, who is shuttling through the streets in a cloak, is calm as usual in his heart.
As the de facto controller of the Jinyi Guardian's errand, his task is daunting. As an indigenous who has never been in contact with a time-traveler, he can't actually touch the context of things many times.
Fortunately, his performance in the matter of Xu Hongru was quite good, and he soon came up with enough evidence to convince Shangguan that this guy was definitely not a "local product".
So his position began to solidify, although in many things he still couldn't grasp the traverser's routine.
He urgently needed someone who could penetrate the enemy's interior and understand the strengths and weaknesses of the traverser. But his subordinates are a bunch of slippery bureaucrats, and it's okay to intrigue in the yamen at ordinary times, but it's really enough to pull out to do something.
The few elite talents still have tasks. Daming is so vast, it's not just as simple as a Xu Hongru.
Fortunately, something that he was happy to see happened happened. The son of the ace spy Kang Zhuang, whom he had never met, actually took the initiative to ask Ying to enter the Demon Sect.
It is true that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the sons of mice will make holes.
Thinking like this in his heart, Wu Sijie came to Yan's return quickly, and his son was still smiling like a flower, but Wu Sijie's cold face did not change in any way because of her smile.
"Is Miss Phoenix there?"
"Yes."
** Before he could say something, Wu Sijie had already turned around and went upstairs, and soon disappeared from everyone's field of vision.
The door creaked open, and the Phoenix girl looked up from the gauze tent and smiled, "You're here." ”
Wu Sijie didn't laugh, just chose a free place to stand and asked, "Is the Kangning you said reliable or not?" ”
"I've asked him and he says it's fine. Eagles always have to spread their wings, but a little earlier than we expected. ”
"The plan that suits us is very different."
"So what?" The phoenix girl replied lightly, "Wouldn't it be better for him to seek to spread his wings in the air?" Capture and kill the bandits, befriend Yang Zhaoji, and tonight's fire, all of which are indispensable to his shadow. We haven't even found out what he was doing with the arson. ”
Wu Sijie's pupils shrank: "So, if we don't incorporate it into our system as soon as possible, he will get out of control in the future?" ”
"The eagle will eventually prey on the fox rabbit, and even if it is included in our system, it will not give him a sense of belonging. But the boss doesn't care, as long as he can put a pair of eagle wings for Da Ming, no matter where Corning takes Da Ming, as long as he doesn't lie on the ground as a soil pig like before. ”
"Upper?" In the Phoenix girl's lengthy words, Wu Sijie only grasped this one key point, "Since becoming the number two person after Luo Sigong, I have never seen him care so much about a person's growth." ”
"That was the last weapon he had prepared for Da Ming." "It's just that before he even started forging it, he discovered that this weapon had a spirit of its own. I don't know what he will choose next, but no matter what, he will not object to this sharp blade and try it on Xu Hongru. ”
"I see." Wu Sijie nodded, but suddenly remembered something and asked, "I heard that he also arranged an identity within the Black Clothes Society." ”
"It's a long-term plan, and it's not about what's in front of you." The Phoenix girl said, "On the side of the Black Coat Society, even if many people know the code name Antares, the only thing they can find out is that Kang Ning is recuperating at home. ”
Wu Sijie nodded: "The question of the candidate is so decided." ”
The Phoenix girl smiled, "I wasn't going to ask for your opinion. ”
Wu Sijie's face was slightly embarrassed, but soon his whole face returned to a calm state.
The Phoenix girl continued: "I have already agreed with Yang Zhaoji to bring him to me today. It just so happens that you're here too. Then you can give him the task. ”
At this time, Yang Zhaoji was looking for Kangning all over the street. Ever since he learned that Kang Ning was going undercover in the White Lotus Sect, Yang Zhaoji immediately informed the Phoenix girl of Jinyiwei, hoping that it could secretly help.
Unexpectedly, the Phoenix girl immediately expressed her position, hoping that he could bring Kang Ning and persuade him to join Jinyiwei.
Yang Zhaoji knew that in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, although Jinyiwei seemed to be majestic, it was also an unpopular organization many times.
Corning knew at first glance that he was a man of his own way. Yang Zhaoji had no way of judging whether Corning was willing to join Jinyiwei.
But at the moment this is not the most important question, after all, no one has been found, and it is obviously too early to consider whether he can be convinced.
In the end, he had to ask Yuan Fang for help, and only then did he find Kang Ning who was in a daze at the door of a restaurant called Gluttonous Diet.
"Brother Xian, I've found you."
Yang Zhaoji's voice woke Kang Ning up. He turned around and asked, "Brother Yang, do you have something to do with me?" ”
"Yes, you come with me. I'll take you to meet a friend. He asked you and me to meet when Yan returned. ”
"Yan returns?" Kang Ning silently recited the name of this place in his heart, isn't that the place where Yang Zhaoji and Jin Yiwei exchanged information? How did you get yourself to that place?
At that moment, Kang Ning asked a little puzzled: "Brother Yang, I have never been to that kind of place." ”
Yang Zhaoji smiled and said, "Didn't you go with me last time?" ”
"Didn't you say last time that there was a girl who was particularly good-looking, so I just went to see it twice."
Yang Zhaoji definitely didn't say anything similar at the time, but he knew that Kang Ning's words had another meaning, referring to the fact that he had gone to connect with the Phoenix girl in the first place. It's just that the surrounding population is mixed, and it's inconvenient to say it directly.
If Yang Zhaoji didn't even have the means to deal with this kind of thing, then he would be the chief soldier of Datong in vain.
So he smiled and said, "Hey, you also know that the girls in the Qinglou like handsome offspring, and they will like a big old man like me." He heard that I knew you, and that you had redeemed your sister, and that she wanted to know you. No, let me invite you tonight. Let's go to the excitement together. ”
Hearing him say this, Kang Ning felt a little uneasy in his heart, could it be that he was going to have something to do with Jinyiwei?
In order to be unconventional and attract people's attention, some people said that the Jinyi Guard was just a family honor guard for the emperor. Although this is also one of the functions of Jinyiwei, it is more important to "specialize in investigating bad deeds, evil words, human lives, robbers, and serious matters".
In a way, it's still a dangerous job.
Cor Ning didn't think that two generations of their family needed to be involved in this kind of thing.
But thinking of the task he automatically asked for Ying, he suddenly felt that if there was Jin Yiwei's help, the results might be much better.
"Okay, then let's go to the excitement together."
So, Kang Ning and Yang came to Yan's return with you. Since Kang Ning was still pretending to be sick in the name, he wrapped himself in a cyan cloak and followed Yang Zhaoji into the third floor with a quick step.
After a round and turn, they came to the Phoenix girl's room.
Yang Zhaoji just looked around, and pushed the door directly without knocking.
Kang Ning, who was hiding behind Yang Zhaoji, even if he entered the door, still hid his whole person in the cyan cloak.
He cast a tentative gaze from under the brim of his hat, and soon found a graceful figure in the veil opposite. That should be the phoenix girl Yang Zhaoji talked about.
On the other side of the tent was a man dressed in black.
Yang Zhaoji also saw the stranger at this time. However, he was not disturbed, because he had seen the style of the dress more than once, the Flying Fish suit.
"Why did you launch this flying fish suit? Interesting. ”
Hearing Yang Zhaoji's teasing, Wu Sijie's face did not show any unhappiness, he just glanced at Kang Ning lightly, and found that one of his faces was in the shadow created by the brim of his hat, only a pair of bright eyes, flashing with a deep light in the dark.
"You're Corning? Ancestral hometown of She's county, the word Anshi? Wu Sijie bypassed Yang Zhaoji and started a conversation directly with Kang Ning.
"Exactly." Corning replied calmly, his face invisible because it was hidden in shadows.
His mind and logic still need to be honed, and not long ago, he just guessed wrong on the issue of whether the King's Key is fake, which can fully prove that even if a soul piercing person has a predecessor who has been studying behind closed doors and has not experienced the world, it will take some time to carry out the localization process.
Fortunately, it is also beneficial for the ex to study behind closed doors. First, his knowledge reserve is likely to be enough for him to win fame, which will be very beneficial in future development. Second, he rarely shows his head outside, but he is indeed very suitable for the spy industry. Even if someone knew the name Corning, who could associate it with this face. After all, there are too few people who know him.
"Your father is my colleague, though I have never met him. But I know that he is excellent ......"
"That's not right." Kang Ning suddenly interrupted Wu Sijie's words, and everyone present looked at him in surprise, "My father has never been Jinyiwei, and neither am I." He is Betelgeuse of the Black Clothes Society, and I may become the Antares of the Black Clothes Society in the near future. ”
Wu Sijie was stunned for a moment, and finally figured out what Kang Ning was going to say.
"If my identity is revealed, then it will be Antares, the spy of the Black Clothes Society, who will die, not Kangning of the Jinyi Guard."
"I see." Wu Sijie nodded with satisfaction, and then cast an appreciative look at the Phoenix girl, "Young eagle!" This is your ring. You don't wear a flying fish suit, you don't deserve to embroider a spring knife, you don't have a brocade robe, but you still have to sneak in the night. ”
Yang Zhaoji glanced at Wu Sijie puzzled. What Kang Ning said just now should be refusing to join Jinyiwei. Why did he take out the ring? Isn't that a token exclusive to the Husband's Bureau?
In Yang Zhaoji's puzzled eyes, Kang Ning stepped forward and took the green ring that looked like a toad's head.
Even if he didn't know it, his fate was already on the track that someone had arranged for him.
Since then, he has become the Jinyi Guard, the Jinyi Guard of the Husband's Errand Bureau.
In later generations, there was a movie called "Men in Black", which was about an earth organization that detected and managed aliens, and each of their husbands did similar things.
It's just that they're an indigenous organization that detects and manages the traverser.
