Chapter 16: He's Different

With Chongming's ability, where would you not notice-

There was a barrier around the man and the ghost.

The enchantment is a space of its own, and if it were an ordinary person, it would never find the strangeness in this dark alley. But even if the Adept wants to hear the voices of other people's enchantments, it is not easy.

Especially in the case of targeted precautions of the other party.

- This man is also a stranger.

And Wang Lan, the manager of the Golden Horde, behaved very frankly. He casually glanced around Chongming, and the tone of his mouth was not very polite:

"The Colonel is coming to S City again? Why is it that a person walks here alone, and his subordinates are not around and ready to be on call at any time? ”

Immediately afterward, he didn't wait for Chongming's reaction, as if he suddenly remembered something, his eyes condensed with a vague hostility:

"I don't know the little clerk in our shop, how is your interrogation, Colonel? He's a half-old child, and he still works so hard for your alliance to mobilize the people, have you found anything? ”

Naturally, Shigeaki would not answer these questions, which were meaningless to him.

But his personality will always make people mistakenly think that he is high and too lazy to take care of it. Seeing this, Wang Lan glanced at the middle-aged ghost next to him, and the ghost trembled away.

Chongming glanced at its back, his breath had been recorded, he withdrew his gaze and faced Wang Lan.

I saw the man take a few steps forward gracefully, and said slowly:

"If there is nothing to do, please Colonel, raise your noble hand and let our little clerk come back quickly. It doesn't matter if he leaves, these two days of work are waiting for him to do, and his salary is also waiting for him. ”

Chongming was indifferent, and he didn't react to what he mentioned about Ji You.

When he walked to the vicinity of Chongming, Wang Lan stopped, turned his head sideways and smiled, "Don't think that you people from the Earth Alliance have a lot of influence in the world, the road to the altar is not easy, and if you want to go down the steps of the altar, it will not be so easy to walk." ”

Chongming didn't answer his words, and also turned his head sideways and said:

"Ji You, it's a supernatural one."

Wang Lan was not surprised by the information implied in this sentence, but habitually touched the sapphire ring on his index finger with his thumb, and his smile did not decrease.

"You're a Stranger too." Shigeaki confirmed.

Wang Lan took a wrong step forward, and turned his head to look at the Golden Horde Building not far away, "Not all people with abilities are obliged to join EA (Earth Alliance), let alone serve your Special Operations Department. ”

"It's your freedom." The colonel said with a straight look.

"What about Ji You?"

Even if Chongming knew how to deal with it early on, it was the best standard answer, but this rational colonel, who was like a high-end AI, still paused for a moment, and then blurted out:

“…… He's different. ”

Wang Lan disagreed, "Indeed, anyone can see that he is very stupid." But you use that to make him selfless? ”

Chongming did not answer mechanically, but asked succinctly:

"Who are you serving? The demons? Or the Ghost King? ”

Wang Lan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed a little sarcastically, "Hahahaha...... Your alliance's news network is really not ordinary. But alas, the imagination needs to be strengthened. ”

Chongming was silent, it seems that Wang Lan's purpose is not so simple.

The temptation ended here, as long as he knew that this strange explosion in the world was more or less related to Wang Lan, it was enough.

Superfluous things are not within the scope of his responsibility as a colonel.

For a while, the two turned their backs to each other and went in opposite directions, one side of the road was along Ji You's community, and Wang Lan's direction was the Golden Horde Building.

"Oh yes, please don't forget," Wang Lan's voice came from behind. "There are less than 7 days left in this month, if Ji You doesn't come to work again, help me tell me-"

"According to the regulations of the Golden Horde, if you are absent from work for more than 5 days, half a month's salary will be gone."

Chongming's indifferent face: "......"

Wages?

Then he subconsciously thought that the salary of the alliance headquarters and branch should not be lower than that of a fast food restaurant. was relieved to be silent.

And Chongming's reaction failed to let Wang Lan take advantage again, so Manager Wang, who likes to speak in analogy, didn't care about it this time, he stopped his steps, and turned around to continue to throw a few mockery skills at Chongming:

"Wandering alone in this city, you need to pay more attention, Colonel. It's not like Z City, where you can be slaughtered by your alliance's powerhouses. ”

"It's better that the colonel still has someone by his side at any time, otherwise it's too late to happen...... But I can't go back. ”

Chongming didn't know what to think, so he replied directly "thank you". The tone didn't sound special, just like his usual indifference.

But it's because of these two words-

If Chai Qing was here, he would probably be shocked and suspicious, their captain was almost ignored, and if he encountered a non-human creature, he might be able to take a second look, but Colonel Chongming had never been interested in living people.

As soon as Chongming's words fell, he raised his hand with two fingers, and the isolation barrier around him and Wang Lan disappeared instantly.

The surrounding buzz returned to its original state.

And the elegant manager Wang Lan also sorted out his expression in an instant, and then he immediately understood something in his mind.

Fang Chongming's series of actions are nothing more than to show him that-

It doesn't matter, you say yours.

And when Chongming got impatient to hear it, he didn't say a word and lifted the enchantment. Because in this way, the two of them are exposed to the public, and no matter what they talk about, they can't go on at all.

…… This colonel of the "humanoid weapon" who is circulating among the supernatural, why is his personality so dragging?!

Subconsciously, Wang Lan's impression of Ji You flashed in his mind.

I always feel that Chongming and Ji You have very different personalities, but in some places, they always inadvertently make people calm and break their skills, and they just want to go up and play two games to dissipate their anger.

"Wang! Barking! ”

"Ahh......h What are you doing with Rhubarb!! Mouth open! That's all I have for my best pants! Let go, let go! ”

"Wang ......"

"Ahhhh This is my hand! Are you hungry? Isn't it food at the door? Biting me has a fart! Ya, let me go......"

Except for Jiang Jiu, the owner of Shiba Inu Rhubarb, and Uncle Zhang, everyone else watched this scene very magically. The red-clothed little Ah Piao has been standing behind Ji You, and he doesn't seem to be afraid of Shiba Inu Rhubarb, but he doesn't want to get close to it.

At this moment, several people are next door to Ji Youjia 401, room 402.

Because Jiang Jiu excitedly reported that this was the first time he had seen a ghost in his life, Chai Qing gave up debating with him about the taste of the dish, and turned to Ji You's neighbor Uncle Zhang's house to seek an answer-

Could it be that Jiang Jiu is also a supernatural?

Chai Qing was anxious to verify, so he went straight to the point to Uncle Zhang who was sitting on the sofa on the side:

"Hello Uncle Zhang, take the liberty to ask a question, have you noticed that among us, it seems to be more ...... Strange people? ”
