Chapter III: Refusal
Mu He wore Chen Xian's slippers and hurriedly ran out of the living room.
It seems that the slippers don't fit well, and they make a snapping sound all the way, looking like a toddler.
When she saw Huo Fatzi and Lu Yisheng, her pace slowed down slightly, and at the same time, a vigilant expression appeared on her face.
Mu He cautiously approached Chen Xian's side and asked him to stand in front of him.
"What's wrong with the TV?" Chen Xian asked quietly, without revealing the slightest flaw in his expression.
"No...... Painting ......" Mu He hugged Chen Xian's arm tightly and said pitifully, "I can't see ......"
Hearing this, Chen Xian nodded, looked at Huo Fatzi and the others and said a word of unaccompaniment, and then led the girl back to the living room.
As Mu He said, there is no picture on the TV, the screen shows no signal, Chen Xian checked it again, and found that the video output line of the TV was not plugged in tightly, and it had fallen off at the moment.
Plug the plug back in and fix it, and the screen has changed back to the familiar picture of Mu He.
"You stay here obediently, don't go out casually, do you hear?"
Mu He looked up at Chen Xian, seemed to understand his words, and hummed seriously.
Under Chen Xian's arrangement, she obediently returned to the sofa and sat down, watching TV quietly.
Chen Xian returned to the courtyard and saw the gossip on Huo Fatzi's face, so he took the initiative to explain.
"She's my friend, she just came here two days ago."
"Your friend?" Huo Fatzi was obviously stunned for a moment, and his eyes became more and more curious, "Such a good-looking little girl, it's your girlfriend, right?" ”
Mu He is a girl who is easy to attract the attention of others, this Chen Xian has long expected, in superficial terms, she is so good-looking, how can she not attract attention?
"Just your friend??" Lu Yisheng couldn't help but open his mouth, glanced at the living room with bad intentions, and then turned back to look at Chen Xian with anticipation, "Can you introduce me to him?" ”
Lu Yisheng has seen a lot of beautiful girls over the years, but there is really no girl who can make him shine like seeing Mu He.
When Mu He jumped out of the living room before, Lu Yisheng was directly stunned.
The image left a deep impression on him.
Looking at Mu He's lively and cute appearance, he only reminded him of the deer walking in the forest, which was both clear and pure.
"If you don't apply powder, it's like the morning glow reflecting the snow...... It's so beautiful......." Lu Yisheng muttered, seeing that Chen Xian didn't say anything, he hurriedly asked again, "Dude, can you introduce me to me?" ”
Chen Xian's originally indifferent eyes became a little cold at the moment, and even he didn't notice such a change in himself.
"Nope."
Hearing Chen Xian's simple refusal, Lu Yisheng immediately became anxious, but before he could say anything, Huo Fatzi glared at him directly, barely letting him quiet down.
"Let's get down to business." Chen Xian sat on the chair next to him, without any expression on his face.
"Xiao Chen, you really don't plan to think about it?" Huo Fatzi still didn't give up, and the attention that was attracted by Mu He before also returned to the topic at this moment, "We can talk about the conditions, you believe me, the sincerity of the secret bureau to you is very sufficient." ”
"I believe in your sincerity, but I'm used to freedom, and I don't like the kind of life after I officially join the company, Uncle Huo, I hope you can understand me......" Chen Xian said this very sincerely, and he directly expressed his attitude, "You can come to me if you encounter problems, after all, I am a registered temporary worker, and I will deal with the tasks assigned to me, as for other things, I don't want to get involved too much." ”
Hearing this, Huo Fatzi couldn't help but be silent.
Before coming to Ningchuan, he had read Chen Xian's files given to him by his superiors more than a dozen times, and it can be said that he had roughly understood what kind of person Chen Xian was from those written materials.
He wants to be an idle crane, and the free and casual days are a kind of enjoyment for him, except for the task that allows him to attend, he will not get involved in other things, especially dealing with cases between strangers and strangers...... He won't get involved in giving money.
It's not that Chen Xian is afraid of trouble, but he just feels that he shouldn't take care of these things.
All he could do was the anomalous beings.
"Okay, Xiao Chen, since you said so...... Uncle Huo also understands you. Huo Fatzi sighed, and planned to go back first and then think about countermeasures, and then talk to him alone, after all, it was the superiors who asked him to join, and if this matter is not done well, Huo Fatzi will have to be criticized when he goes back.
"Thank you." Chen Xian nodded.
"Then we won't bother you, the Ningchuan Branch is still in the initial stage, there are more things, I will come to talk to you again when I have time, and I will treat you to a good meal when the time comes." Huo Fatzi laughed, his face was still so kind, "I remembered your favor last time, and I will be in Ningchuan for a long time in the future, and I won't have a chance to repay your favor." ”
Chen Xian shook his head and said that he didn't need to remember it so clearly.
"It's also my job to protect you, I just did my job, and I can't talk about owing favors." Chen Xian said with a smile.
After a simple politeness, Chen Xian sent Huo Fatzi and them out of the door.
During this process, Huo Fatzi did not mention the matter of letting him join the Ningchuan Branch, but only chatted with him about Mu He's origin.
Chen Xian naturally couldn't say much, but he couldn't say a word, just said a few words, saying that she was a friend she had known a long time ago, and she had just come to join her recently, and she was currently living in the Chen family's old mansion temporarily......
Closing the door, Chen Xian stood in the courtyard for a while, his eyes relaxed a little.
It was obvious that the previous incident had made him a little nervous, because Huo Fatzi had seen Mu He before, and Chen Xian was worried that he would recognize him at a glance, but it turned out that he had thought too much.
When Mu He was discovered by Huo Fatzi and them, she was just a black horse monkey, and now she looks like a celestial person, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as if the two of them are judged, so it is normal for Huo Fatzi not to recognize it.
"Safe for ...... for the time being"
Chen Xian let out a long breath, rubbed his somewhat stiff facial muscles, and turned to walk towards the kitchen.
For Chen Xian, joining the Secret Bureau is not a very bad choice.
On the contrary, as long as he officially joins the Secret Bureau and becomes an internal member, then with his personal ability, he will definitely be able to mix well in the Secret Bureau.
At the age of twenty-three, he can become a one-in-a-million senior temporary worker, a personal achievement that outsiders cannot imagine, and even some of the "seniors" in the Secret Bureau have to be amazed.
An Inhuman who doesn't know any religious techniques, but can deal with all kinds of abnormal cases, this ability is no longer comparable to ordinary Inhumans, even many Inhumans who have cultivated for decades dare not say that they are stronger than Chen Xian, because his "battle record" is too brilliant, even brilliant to the point of being terrifying.
In an SUV outside Laoluoguxiang, Huo Fatzi sat in the driver's seat, smoking a cigarette with a very disappointed expression, and Lu Yisheng also had a similar expression, leaning on the car seat sullenly without saying a word.
"You know it's amazing, huh?" Huo Fatzi laughed, handed a cigarette to Lu Yisheng, and threw the lighter to him, "I told you a long time ago, he is a capable person, and you kid still don't believe it." ”
"It's just a lot of strength, and it's not a special ability." Lu Yisheng took the cigarette and lit it, his face full of unconvinced, "What I'm good at is Qimen Dunjia, if I give me a little time to prepare, I can hang him up and beat him!" ”
That's right, even if Lu Yisheng was pinched half to death by Chen Xian, he was not completely convinced.
Strong personal combat ability in close quarters does not mean that he is really strong, after all, the evaluation of Inhuman's combat effectiveness cannot be based on hand-to-hand combat, because the vast majority of Inhumans are not good at that kind of combat, they are good at "casting", which is the so-called casting spell.
In most cases, the battle between Inhumans and Inhumans is very similar to the fighting method of Maoshan Taoist priests in the movie.
The reason why Lu Yisheng was so unconvinced was precisely because of this, he had no chance to show what he had learned in front of Chen Xian before, how could he swallow this breath?
"Strong?" Huo Fatzi smiled, looking at Lu Yisheng's eyes as if he was looking at an ignorant child, "How many years did you work as a temporary worker before you turned regular?" ”
"Four years." Lu Yisheng replied.
"What level were you at that time?" Huo Fatzi asked again.
"Intermediate." Lu Yisheng said, his expression became slightly proud, after all, it is already a great thing to become a mid-level temporary worker at this age, at least ninety percent of the strangers can't do this, "Now that I'm a regular, I'm also a middle-level member of the Investigation Department, and I may be able to get a senior title in the first ten years." ”
Huo Fatzi took a puff of cigarette and asked him quietly, "Do you know what Chen Xian's title is?" ”
"What job title?" Lu Yisheng asked rhetorically, frowning inadvertently, "It won't be intermediate like me, right?" It can't be intermediate to look at him like that, after all, he ......"
"He's a senior casual worker." Huo Fatzi interrupted Lu Yisheng's words.
"Senior temporary?" Lu Yisheng shook his head with a smile, his face full of disbelief, "Uncle, don't tease me, which senior temporary worker is not an old man with white hair?" ”
Huo Fatzi glanced at him, as if he was reading out the information, and every word was said very carefully.
"Chen Xian registered as a temporary worker at the age of eighteen, when he was only a junior entry, but in the next year, he was promoted from junior to senior, and our leader said that this is definitely not the end of Chen Xian, now it is just because his qualifications are not enough, once the qualifications are enough...... Maybe he'll be graded special. ”
When Huo Fatzi said this, his expression couldn't help but become complicated, even though he had read Chen Xian's file dozens of times, he still showed a little disbelief when telling these already familiar information, and even felt that this was simply some kind of myth of modern Inhumans.
"Are you kidding?" Lu Yisheng frowned, "There are only so many senior temporary workers in our bureau, I remember everyone's code name, what is Chen Xian's code name in the bureau?" ”
Huo Fatzi smoked a cigarette and replied slowly.
"Eater."
