Chapter Ninety-Five: Two Choices
finally relieved Liu Yan's heart, and after making an excuse, Bai Yang slipped out of the room.
I saw that in the hall downstairs, my mother was sitting in the hall with Xiao Tao'er watching parenting TV, of course, Xiao Tao'er naturally can't watch TV now, so I can only listen.
Hearing footsteps behind her, Bai Mu turned her head to look.
Seeing that it was her son, she couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Why did you get up so early today?" β
"Whoa, oh, well, oh, whoa." Xiao Tao'er, who was lying in the arms of the white mother, was very restless shaking her little hands, and she didn't know what to say.
"Oh, I can't sleep, by the way, Dad?" He hurriedly asked.
"Your dad hid in the basement early in the morning, this guy is really a little crazy!" Bai Mu said with some dissatisfaction.
Poplar couldn't help but cry and laugh, maybe his stepfather was abused by him, and now he often hides in the basement alone to practice his ball skills.
"I'm going to play with him." After speaking, he didn't wait for his mother to speak, and immediately ran in the direction of the basement.
"This kid!" Bai Mu muttered a little dissatisfied, but in the end she didn't pay attention to it, and continued to watch parenting TV with Xiao Tao'er in her arms.
Poplar went to the basement, naturally he didn't really plan to learn from his stepfather.
Once in the basement, he immediately locked himself in his home theater.
"I don't know if Director Hu will blame me after such a long time!" He couldn't help but smile wryly.
He knew that as long as he waited for his call back, his good life would come to an end.
But this call, he had to make.
As soon as the call came back, it was immediately connected.
"Hu Ju, good morning." He was the first to greet with a smile, hoping to eliminate the unhappiness in the other party's heart.
"You kid, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Director Hu's slightly dissatisfied tone came from the mobile phone.
"Hehe, hehe." Poplar smiled awkwardly.
"I know that your kid lives with his family now, and it's not convenient to answer the phone, so I specially sent you a text message, how about it, I gave you more than two months of vacation, did you forget who you are?" Director Hu asked with a smile.
"No, absolutely not, I'm always waiting for S.H.I.E.L.D. to call." Poplar hurriedly denied it.
"Haha, this is what you said, originally I was going to give you a few more months, since you said so, then you should come over before twelve o'clock at noon to report." Director Hu said with a laugh.
Poplar was dumbfounded, is it really fake?
"Hu Ju, that, if you can really give me a few more months, I will be very grateful to you." Although he didn't know if what Hu Ju said was true, he would have to fight for this kind of opportunity no matter what.
"Ha, you think about the United States, don't talk nonsense, before twelve o'clock at noon, S.H.I.E.L.D. reports, one minute late, the mission time is extended by one day!" Director Hu laughed and ordered.
After hanging up the phone, Bai Yang couldn't help but pouted and said, "I knew it would be like this, and it was so sad to lie to me!" β
Although he was very unwilling in his heart, S.H.I.E.L.D. had already given him an extra two months of vacation, and he had nothing to complain about.
Because considering that the punishment was too severe, although it was still early, he didn't dare to delay, if he really accidentally extended it for a minute or two, wouldn't he be able to come back a day or two later?
Now he is not worried that S.H.I.E.L.D. will withhold his money, and it is obvious that Director Hu also knows this, so he will prescribe the right medicine and use the disgusting way of extending the mission time to pinch him, which makes him both depressed and helpless.
In the home theater, after he released the puppet One, he directly teleported out of the villa.
At 11:31 p.m., Poplar arrived at S.H.I.E.L.D. nearly half an hour early.
As usual, this time he still teleported directly into the cultivation room that belonged to him in S.H.I.E.L.D.
Afterwards, he didn't make any repairs in the cultivation room, and walked out of the cultivation room directly to the outside of Director Hu's office.
"Toot toot." He knocked lightly on the door three times.
Soon the door was opened, and the secretary Zhou Yu was standing inside the door and smiling at him.
"Xiaobai, you're here." She said with a smile.
"Sister Zhou, Hu Ju should be inside, right?" Bai Yang smiled and nodded, then glanced in the direction of Director Hu's office and asked.
"Yes, he has already explained to me, and when you come over, let me take you in directly." Zhou Yu nodded and said with a smile.
Under the guidance of Zhou Yu, Bai Yang soon walked into Director Hu's office.
Seeing him coming, Director Hu glanced at the watch on his wrist and said with a smile: "Well, it's quite punctual, I won't punish you this time." β
Poplar was suddenly depressed, obviously he arrived early, okay, can he reduce the task time of the day by one minute earlier? Half a day is fine! Oh, and it's okay to even redeem a minute for an hour, his requirements really aren't high.
"Sit down." Before and after Bai Yang walked to the desk, Director Hu pointed to the chair in front of him and said with a smile.
Then Zhou Yu made two cups of green tea for the two.
Bringing the green tea to the two of them, he walked out of the office.
After Zhou Yu left, Director Hu scolded with a smile: "Xiaobai, you guy is not interesting enough!" My wife didn't tell us when she gave birth, didn't she take me and your master seriously? β
Bai Yang was suddenly embarrassed, he really didn't think of this at the time, he just patronized to inform his acquaintances in Hangzhou.
He laughed a few times, and hurriedly quibbled: "Hu Ju, you have wronged me, I don't dare to call you." β
"Oh, you're afraid of revealing your identity?" Hu Ju asked with a smile.
Bai Yang nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, yes, you still know me." β
"Haha." Director Hu laughed and pointed at Bai Yang, and scolded with a smile: "You little slippery head, you can't find a better reason to lie!" β
Bai Yang suddenly said with a look of grievance: "What I said is true. β
Director Hu shook his head with a smile and asked, "Could it be that sending us a text message will reveal your identity?" β
"Uh, heheΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·" Bai Yang suddenly touched his nose in embarrassment, and said with a wry smile: "It's not that I didn't expect to be able to send a text message." β
Director Hu shook his head with a smile and said, "Okay, let's stop joking with you, let's get down to business." β
Hearing that Director Hu was going to get down to business, Bai Yang immediately sat up straight, and the hippie smile on his face also retracted.
Seeing Bai Yang's performance, Director Hu smiled and nodded, and then said: "Actually, your master will talk to you about this matter later, because I took into account that the influence on your body has not been completely eliminated, so I gave you two more months of vacation, but these two months of vacation are not in vain, and the task time will not be eliminated because of the passing of the holiday, so you have two choices, one is to complete the tasks of the previous two months at one time, and the other is to evenly distribute the task time of the previous two months to the tasks after it, This point is up to you, and you can now say what you think. β
Poplar thought that the previous two months of vacation were picked up by him for nothing, but he didn't expect that there was no pie in this world, which made him a little depressed.
He pondered for a moment and asked, "How can I calculate the time for completing the previous two months at one time?" β
"The task time is adjusted according to the difficulty of the task, if it is just a simple task of carrying materials, I think your master will let you move it for a month and a half." Director Hu explained with a smile.
A month and a half! Poplar almost fainted, he almost fainted last time after only moving for less than twenty days, is this planning to force him to strike?
"Isn't it! Hu Ju, how is this time calculated? He asked with a bitter face.
"Haha, don't worry, there are not so many materials for you to carry at the base, as for the time, didn't I already tell you last time, the treatment of your special team is half a month of tasks, half a month of vacation, of course, this is just an ordinary situation, so if you perform the simplest task, a month's task time is half a month, and you have two months of vacation, then it adds up to a month, plus the time of this mission, isn't it exactly one and a half months?" Director Hu asked with a laugh.
Baiyang naturally knew this, but he forgot it because too much time had passed, and now after being reminded by Director Hu, he remembered it again.
It's just that the thought of staying in S.H.I.E.L.D. for a month and a half makes him happy.
"Hu Ju, can you tell me what tasks you have this time?" He asked tentatively.
Director Hu smiled and shook his head: "What is the specific task, you have to ask your master about this, the most I can tell you is that the location of your mission should not be on the earth." β
If it is not on the earth, it is naturally the task on Luo Yuanxing, and Bai Yang can naturally understand this.
In fact, the current Poplar really doesn't have much opinion on where to go on a mission, he just hopes that the time can be shorter, so that he can have more time to spend with his family.
Of course, if he was asked to stay in that kind of dangerous place for half a month, he would naturally mind, but is it possible? Even if he wanted to, the state wouldn't do it!
"What about the time of the mission, Hu Ju, can you tell us a little bit if I choose to complete it all at once?" He asked tentatively again.
"Haha, you also have to ask your master about this, if you choose to do it all at once, I can tell you that it won't take more than a month and a half." Director Hu said with a laugh.
Poplar was speechless for a moment, this answer didn't seem to be any different from no answer!
"If you're struggling right now, you can go back and think about it, there's still an afternoon to spare." After taking a sip of tea, Director Hu said with a smile.
Bai Yang touched his nose, if it was usual, this matter would indeed make him feel very entangled, but at this time, he thought of the words that Liu Yan told him in the morning, which made him understand that even if he went back early this time, he couldn't do anything, rather than this, it was better to simply stay in S.H.I.E.L.D. and finish the task at once.
He took a deep breath and said with a wry smile, "No need, I've already decided." β
"Oh, so fast?" Director Hu asked in surprise.
Bai Yang nodded with a wry smile and said, "Long pain is better than short pain, I decided to complete the task left over from the previous two months at once." β
"Are you sure?" Director Hu asked with a smile.
"Sure." Poplar nodded and said.
"Actually, I hope you choose to do it in installments, after all, if you do it all at once, it will take a relatively long time, are you sure there is no problem at home?" Director Hu frowned and asked.
Bai Yang smiled and said, "Hu Ju, don't worry, I have already arranged everything at home." β
"Oh, how do you say?" Director Hu asked curiously.
"I told my family that I was going to Beijing for a meeting, and I might not be able to come back for a while." Poplar said nonsense.
Director Hu smiled and asked, "They don't have any suspicions?" β
"Probably not, anyway, when I said it, they didn't say anything, they just told me to be careful when I arrived in Beijing." Poplar said with a shrug.
"Be careful of what?" Director Hu couldn't help but ask funny.
"It is said that everyone in Beijing is a master, and urinating may be sprinkled on the thigh of a certain central leader, can they not worry?" Poplar asked rhetorically with a smile.
