Chapter 100: "Family Reunion"
A week later, Gong Piqing successfully moved from the ward to the luxurious bedroom where he once lived, and the Simmons bed that he had broken before had been replaced with an iron-framed double bed that was the same as when he was hospitalized in Xiguan Renai Hospital.
The people at the headquarters probably knew that he would not be comfortable after moving out of Xiguan Renai Hospital like this, so they gave him such an identical bed for him to live here, but in addition to this bed, the other facilities in the room were as luxurious and complete as ever, and this time there was a large full-length mirror than last time.
Gong Piqing stood in front of the full-length mirror, and had been working on the tie on his body that couldn't be sorted out for more than half an hour.
There was another knock on the door, and the staff member who had been here many times shouted helplessly from outside the door: "Mr. Gong, the meeting will start in three minutes, are you busy......
This staff member has come to call him countless times in an hour, but Gong Piqing responds with "right away" every time, which makes people wonder if this guy has done something bad inside again and is afraid to come out......
A few minutes later, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door again, Gong Piqing had already been strangled by the tie and his face was flushed, but this time, the people outside did not knock on the door as politely as before, but broke the door directly, and it was actually a young woman who rushed in.
"Are you still going to the meeting? Coming to the new headquarters for the first meeting is so abrasive? Is it really good to have so many people waiting for you! After Zhang Yuemei came in, she scolded him, even when she saw his appearance that he was about to strangle, she didn't lose her anger.
"I'm this, tie, it'...... You're going to kill me......" Gong Piqing struggled to point to the tie around his neck, his brain looking crooked due to the lack of oxygen.
"It's you off! Everyone has been there for a long time, just because you have been waiting until now! Zhang Yuemei said angrily, reaching out to help Gong Piqing sort out her tie, as the restraint on her neck was gradually lifted, Gong Piqing's head slowly lowered, and he also saw the square badge hanging in front of Zhang Yuemei:
Name: Yuemei Zhang
Department: Operations Department
……
Gong Piqing was stunned for a moment, stared at the badge for a long time, and said a series of "you," but he couldn't ask why.
"Don't let you go, you have it too, we're all from the same department now." Zhang Yuemei said, took out an identical badge from Gong Piqing's chest pocket and pinned it to him, which was also his message, but it was also very different from Zhang Yuemei's, because his badge did not have his own name on it, only the icon of a big tree and a line of bare words - Special Operations Commissioner of the Genetic Enhancement Project Team.
Zhang Yuemei was also attracted by his badge, and after staring at the line of words on it for a few seconds, she smiled lightly, turned around and walked outside the house, "Let's go, Mr. World Tree." ”
Gong Piqing followed her all the way, and before she could ask Zhang Yuemei how she got the badge, she was taken to a huge conference room, where dozens of Mill Institute members in formal clothes sat straight on both sides of the conference table and waited for the arrival of the last member, there was no doubt that this member was Gong Piqing.
"Let's welcome the return of the World Tree, after a seven-year separation, the World Tree has returned to our Mill Institute again, everyone sees, do you still know our hero? Three weeks ago, it was he who personally smashed the conspiracy of the Xiguan Institute of Benevolence and brought back our Hades King, Commissioner Zhang Yuemei, and a member who was proficient in management! ”
Gong Piqing originally wanted to say "I'm sorry I'm late" to apologize, but before he could say it, he was swallowed up by a round of warm applause brought to him by the host.
His face turned red at once, and he was led to his seat by a staff member, who had already placed a notebook and pen for the meeting, although the staff here did not know that Gong Piqing would only scribble on it......
"Today we are honored to invite all our department leaders and important members here again, although the war with the Xiguan Renai Institute three weeks ago has greatly damaged our vitality, but after all, we are people who are running at the forefront of time against fate, we have no time to rest, because that door will be opened again in 17 days, and we only have the last 17 days to prepare......"
As the host of the meeting spoke, he used the remote control to switch the picture on the big screen, and a countdown accurate to the second immediately appeared on the big screen, and there were roughly 17 days and 15 hours left on it.
"The portal to the Demon Realm is about to begin, although it seems that we still have about 17 days to prepare, but in fact, we will wait until about 15 days to go to the Divine Tomb again, this time, the end of our journey will no longer be the Xiguan Renai Research Institute, nor the mysterious Divine Tomb, but another field we have not set foot in - the Demon Realm!"
Immediately, the picture on the big screen turned into a picture like a movie screenshot, the purple-red sky was full of totemic lightning, and countless dragon-like creatures that couldn't see what they looked like suddenly appeared in the lightning group, as if it was a post-apocalyptic scene like a natural disaster descending on an alien invasion.
But Gong Piqing quickly recognized it: "Isn't this the photo we took that day?" ”
As soon as he said this, the eyes of the members of the meeting immediately fell on him, and he did not know when he had taken off one of his shoes and stepped on the bare foot on his chair, and the other hand was unabashedly clasped into his nostrils......
"That's right, these photos were provided by the official who came to us from the Xiguan Institute of Benevolence, and he also told us that Mr. World Tree was also involved in the mission at the time, so you will be familiar with these photos." The host said to Gong Piqing with a smile.
Gong Piqing suddenly realized, "No wonder...... It turned out to be a picture from my son to you! ”
After he finished speaking, he looked around, but he didn't find the figure of the man in the suit.
"Now that we have made joint preparations from multiple departments, our plan to go to the Demon Realm has been preliminarily formulated, and now I will convey this plan to the hands of each department official, hoping that you can put forward some valuable opinions on this operation." As he spoke, the host took out a top-secret document from the table behind him that had not yet been opened, opened it and repeated it in front of everyone.
"We initially plan to send a team to the Demon Realm to find out the whereabouts of the evil god's heart, because we know very little about the situation in the Demon Realm, so this team is taking a lot of risks, everyone here knows that there is no 'human' in the Demon Realm, and all the living creatures in it can be summarized as 'monsters', so the task of the first team is extremely heavy, not only carrying the task of espionage intelligence, but also not excluding the possibility of facing various dangers."
Before the moderator of the meeting could finish speaking, he was interrupted again by Gong Piqing raising his hand.
"That place is not terrible, the minions in it can't speak, they are very slow, their attack power is very low, you can draw a circle on the ground so that they can't hit you, as for why I was injured in the Demon Realm last time, I'm sorry, I had a fight with that old black chicken, the reason is that it won't let me stew and eat it......" Gong Piqing muttered to himself for a long time, going through his head about his actions when he strayed into the Demon Realm and fought the Earl of the Raven.
The moderator of the meeting smiled awkwardly, "This ...... The ultimate goal of our mission is to bring back the heart of the evil god, the goal is to make peace without going to war, and to start a war is to minimize our casualties on the premise of obtaining the heart of the evil god, so there are too many situations that may be faced, so it is not easy to draw conclusions now......"
Gong Piqing nodded solemnly, put the foot down, and played with the good-looking carbon pen in front of him.
According to his style, the next step is to put pen and ink on the notebook.
But with an abrupt ping-pong sound, he accidentally got the pen cover under the table, and the pen cover was immediately labeled "evil" in Gong Piqing's heart.
He slipped out of his chair like a slippery loach, and was about to get across the table to arrest the evil pen, when it "flew" at him as if it had known spiritism.
He was so frightened that he almost screamed and jumped up, but a hand that rested lightly on his shoulder held him down, and when he looked up, he saw a fellow sitting next to him looking at him with a smile on his face, and the cap of the pen fell gently into his hand.
Gong Piqing was quite unfamiliar with the guy in front of him, but when he saw that smile with a hint of evil aura invisibly, fear suddenly exploded from his mind.
"You, you, you! You ......" He was almost speechless, but the man gestured to him with his index finger in front of his mouth, and said two words to him with his lips: Hades.
