Southern University, Southern State, Huayu, Southern State.

In the more than a month since Zuo Dao was arranged here, apart from the warm hospitality of the principal that day and the intimate arrangement of accommodation, his interpersonal relationships here have been insulated.

The school climate is generally normal, but not necessarily the same on the part of the staff.

When the neighbors see the arrival of a "little kid", they will naturally make up different plots, especially when it comes to their own identities, which seem to be kept secret.

In this kind of environment where professional titles and backgrounds come first, and academic work is secondary, except for the occasional hello, no one really wants to have a deep friendship with him, and Zuo Dao himself is also happy to be idle.

The main thing is that the university here is normal and not doped with mystery, so the left lane selectively crosses out the social option.

And so it is today, more than a month later.

On an ordinary day.

But there are special characters coming-

- Bang bang

Two soft knocks on the door made Zuo Dao close the computer.

At the same time as he got up, the little paper figure floated to the door, because the door did not have a cat's eye, it could only blur into the door, and finally leaned out of the door to act as a paper man card monitoring probe.

Outside the door, a kind old man with a little girl with white hair was waiting.

At this time, they looked at the middle of the door, and saw a ghostly little paper figure poking out.

After confirming the other party, the little paper man retracted suddenly, and the door opened.

"Looks good, little friend." Xue Xie, the Southern Life Master, took the lead in saying hello.

"You too, Senpai." The left side opened the door, scanned the neighbor's door on the left and right, and responded politely.

He didn't call Nan Mingshi, because the environment they were in at the moment was the residence of ordinary people, and at this time, the residents who did not leave were also awake, and the sound insulation of the houses was very sparse.

In addition, he is not familiar with the other party, and judging from his ordinary dress, calling the other party's life master at this time, Zuo Dao is not sure whether the south life master is willing to be "exposed" in this kind of place.

In the system known to ordinary people in Huayu, there is no term Four Destiny Master, in other words, this is a kind of secrecy.

And Zuo Dao's action of glancing left and right implies that the other party cannot give the other party an honorific title because of the environment he is in, so he can only use the word senior.

As for whether the other party can understand this, Zuo Dao thinks he can.

If the other party is not good, and there is dissatisfaction in this aspect in the follow-up communication, it means that the brain is not good, and there is no need to talk about everything in the follow-up.

Nan Mingshi's side didn't know if he noticed this detail, at least Zuo Dao couldn't see it from his expression, the other party just smiled, and he took the little girl into Zuo Dao's room together.

The area of the house where Zuo Dao is temporarily living now is much smaller than that of Qingchi Huafu before.

Therefore, there is a lot less furniture, and there is only a small round table and two chairs in the living room, so Zuo Dao moved the small round table to the wooden sofa, and the two chairs are placed opposite each other.

Seeing this, Nan Mingshi asked the little girl to sit on the sofa, he and Zuo Dao sat on the chairs respectively, and the little paper man also brought three cups of tea, the left one was a bowl, and the others were made in a glass cup. ….

They each sat down, and strangely enough, none of the three took the lead in speaking.

In silence, Zuo Dao looked at the little girl.

"Is this little girl, much like the woman named Elsa, something wrong with her body, or some strange ability in this world, or is it her relative, similar to a sister?

"Since you brought her to visit, most of the next things are related to her, so what will happen, you can't ask me to take the child, right?" Zuo Dao joked in his heart.

Joke aside, in fact, Zuo Dao is already in the sea of souls, letting the paper spirit stare at his life book to see if there is anything abnormal.

He remembered that when they met for the first time in Huacheng that day, the other party couldn't wait to "see" his old bottom.

Fortunately, there have been no problems so far, and the other party's visit this time is like an ordinary visit.

At this time, Nan Mingshi didn't seem to want to waste too much time, and he might also sense that the person on the other side was the kind of person who could be stuck there for a day without making a statement, so he chose to speak directly:

"Little friend, I'll apologize for what happened before."

This is a very strange opening, and it is not in line with the statement of this life master's status, Zuo Dao thinks so.

"Nanshi is wrong, the younger generation doesn't think so." Zuo Dao replied.

He could guess that the other party's apology was related to the communication in Huacheng, and when he said this, he didn't care about the three seven twenty-one steps first.

If you want to go down, then go down, if you don't want to go down, it also proves that someone on my left doesn't hold grudges.

"Naturally, it's a matter of Huacheng," Nan Ming Shi took a sip of tea, he didn't have a gesture, and said seriously:

"Strictly speaking, it was the official call between me and Xiaoyou, and my words were inappropriate, please forgive me, there was a reason for the incident at that time."

Nan Mingshi's follow-up speech confirmed Zuo Dao's speculation, that day, in Huacheng, the other party signaled openly and secretly, it was indeed not a "good person" to speak, but it was not enough to let Zuo Dao take care of that.

In his previous life, he had really seen too much bureaucracy, and even he himself liked to play the drama of suppressing people with power and the spokesman of the moral high ground, after all, it was easy to use, not a loss, and it was also trouble-free.

It's just that the other party took the lead in admitting his "mistake", which made Zuo Dao more vigilant in his heart.

After all, the regression at this time is obviously to prepare for the subsequent sprint, and the other party's sentence has a reason, which is the preparation post before the sprint begins.

"Nanshi is too worried, that day we were all running for the safety of ordinary people in Huacheng, at that moment we were not divided into each other, regardless of camp, landslides and tsunamis, that is all later."

Zuo Dao spoke with full righteousness, and then changed his words and asked:

"There are two things that I would like to ask Nanshi to explain, since I came here, I will receive some special information, in the internal mailbox, the juniors have not found any traces of the authorizer, and Nanshi can know the mysterious department I am in, the team leader and Tongyan Quanhu and their recent situation?"

Faced with this answer, Nan Mingshi, who was holding the teacup, took a deep look at the other party, and Zuo Dao also looked at him seriously.

The little girl sitting on the sofa looked left and right, and felt that two foxes, one old and one young, were grinding the old donkey, she tilted her head and thought about it, and an olive core shape appeared in the center of her eyebrows, with red and blue entwined imprints, and then a kind of divine thought fluctuated and emanated, connecting Nan Mingshi and Zuo Dao. ….

She is ready to use the consciousness space to communicate and improve some efficiency.

The two people who noticed this, Zuo Dao did not move, but just observed the situation of this little girl and analyzed her characteristics.

But Nan Mingshi's side stopped it, making the little girl's operation ineffective, and she was puzzled in her eyes.

In this regard, the Southern Destiny Master showed a helpless gaze:

"Elsa, the consciousness communication space is suitable for emergencies and special times, and it is rude when there is no critical matter."

Hearing this, Elsa crooked her head and snorted, and continued to dive to hold tea and observe the two of them.

Through this, the left path also confirms the name of the other party.

He was quite curious about how this girl came to be like this.

"Zuo Xiaoyou, your colleagues in Huacheng are very good, because their files have been raised, and they will have to make arrangements, so the contact has been temporarily cut off, and I gave you those messages."

Nan Ming Shi pulled the topic back.

And Zuo Dao's side also understood what the other party really meant.

"This colleague, if he doesn't reply to my question in the first paragraph, he can be regarded as acquiescing in my attitude, since he is not in the same camp as him now, in other words, he wants to continue to communicate with me in depth to determine the real consensus.

"This also confirms that the "opportunity" he said before is not a one-way give, but also what he asks for me, combined with these days, the high-authority information he gave me to understand the situation in Huayu, plus Elsa's arrival, it seems that he wants me to do something with her?"

Zuo Dao flashed these thoughts, and he was not slow to reply at all:

"Thank you Nanshi, I don't know about this trip

Is there anything you want me to do here?"

After Nan Mingshi pulled back to the main topic, Zuo Dao also officially cut to the main topic.

What he meant was to convey to the Southern Destiny Master that he was the official cadre of Huacheng, and his heart was also about his own one-third of an acre.

If you have something beyond the requirements of Huacheng, then it is best to comply with the law and have a specific official transfer, so that you can be justified, rather than being a secret messenger.

Zuo Dao is really an undercover agent in his previous life, and he has become a psychological shadow.

The reason why he cut to the chase at this time -

First, if you know the general goal of the other party, then the core content needs to be promoted in more depth.

Second, after all, the other party is a veteran person, and playing Tai Chi with each other in the early stage can observe each other's minds and increase the bargaining chips for cooperation, but if it is too much, it will seem inappropriate.

The attitude of the three Southern Destiny Divisions on this trip is not overbearing, and Zuo Dao naturally has no reason to take out the shelf, or continue to slide down; This is far less than going straight to the point now, giving the other party an impression that he is a bit demonic and has a double business, and then he is also decisive.

Seeing Zuo Dao answer like this, Nan Mingshi smiled, no longer pretending to be blind, he looked at the young man, probed into the void with his hand, took out three documents from them, put them on the table, and pushed them to Zuo Dao.

"Xiaoyou's guess is not entirely wrong, there is indeed something wrong with this trip, but it is not Huacheng.

"This matter is mainly for me, and I also have contacts in the Southern State, and it is also related to the superior department of your unit, Tianlang Pavilion.

"But before that, Xiaoyou has a choice, and two of these three documents are not ours.

"If you choose the arrangement of the other two documents, then I will stop some of the cooperation I want to reach with Xiaoyou on this trip, old man; I can assure you that there will be no negative problems with your refusal." ….

Nan Mingshi said slowly, obviously he tasted the meaning of Zuo Dao's words.

Hearing this, Zuo Dao glanced at the documents that were all wrapped in kraft paper bags, and there were no special marking features on the outside, so he understood the purpose of this detail.

[I have known an old book friend for ten years to recommend to me to chase books, @

"Arbitrary Letter?" Zuo Dao looked at the title and thought to himself.

"It's not surprising that if you can come to things at this time, most of them will start with my position."

As he read it, Zuo Dao sighed in his heart, and he wiped his face with his hand, looking sad.

Just because this document is the legacy of the former owner's parents.

When he sees it, he has to behave.

And the content of this letter of intent is also extraordinary.

"-Hello Mr. Zuodao.

"I am a cadre of the Archives Bureau of the Comprehensive Commission, stationed in the Yance Mansion.

"According to the trust of your parents, Zuo Wenyao and Zang Lingxuan, until you are involved in the mysterious event and enter this life, this last wish will be frozen, and when you enter this realm, we will start the process according to the conditions.

"The content of the last wish is to be handed over by us to the Chief of the Yance Mansion for discussion, regarding giving you a suitable position.

"Unfortunately, due to the tedious process, we have only contacted you now, but we have also brought you a job arrangement. ….

"If you accept, you only need to sign the document, if you have any objections, you can also contact us, and the Archives Bureau will do its best to solve it for you."

"Position: Headquarters of Yance Prefecture, Investigator II.

"This is a position that contains crises and opportunities, at least as a resident of the Archives Bureau of the Yance Mansion, I would think so, this position has a very high limit, and I will often act together with historians and archaeologists and even scholars, it has a lot of room for promotion, good overall treatment, and a high risk factor.

"In this position, Mr. Zuo Dao will receive professional and complete training, in this case mysterious, and its bias will be carried out in terms of the point of events.

"At the same time, there are five levels of this position, and for a normal operator to reach the second level, no less than eight years of work experience is required, and after reaching the first level of investigator, it is the assessment of a historian or archaeologist."

"Finally, the chief of the Yance Mansion conveyed on my behalf, he said: The Yance Mansion will be your solid backing, if there is no problem in principle, but you encounter internal problems in Huayu, you can contact them at any time.

"Above."

This is the content of the first document, and it also confirms that the document that can be brought by Nan Mingshi himself is not ordinary.

Don't look at the second-level investigator seems to be very ordinary, in the message of this unknown cadre, the other party has introduced the authority of the investigator of the Yance Mansion.

Generally speaking, the investigators of Huayu have a very high space for action in the territory, and if they go to any local city, if they are in the state of the mission and need to be assisted, the local city cannot directly refuse, and except for special circumstances, the investigator's behavior objections can only be adjudicated by the Yance Prefecture itself.

Secondly, the investigators of the Yance Mansion of Huayu will also be protected by a company called the "Archaeological and Historical Association" outside the country, and in the chaotic places or border places of other regions, the scholars, scholars, and investigators of the Yance Mansion are usually very safe without a clear confrontation with a specific organization.

Even if there is a capture, when it is discovered, the association will intervene and coordinate as soon as possible, and this is called the 'Archaeology and History Society', which is jointly founded by all the regions, and has personnel stationed in all border lands and chaotic places, and few people dare to provoke it.

In short, if Zuo Dao signs this document, it means that he has become the commissioner of Yance Mansion, and he will get strong backers at home and abroad.

In this regard, although Zuo Dao, who was sitting on a chair reading the documents, was moved in his heart, his expression did not fluctuate in the slightest.

He calmly unwrapped the next one.

This also made the Nan Ming Master, who was secretly observing, secretly say in his heart: This kid is really a ghost.

The old man couldn't help but start to wonder, what kind of good genetic inheritance do the descendants of these historians and archaeologists have?

Elsa, on the other hand, also observed the young man from time to time, but she seemed to be relatively cold by nature, so she also observed the left path of the two, and did not find useful information from the other party's expressions and gestures.

The opening of the second document is a little less formal than the first one, but a little more human.

This is a crying letter.

"It's too troublesome to write, Chen Jiu, this middle-aged uncle, has to be like this, I'll write casually, you watch, how to do it, follow your ideas, don't be swayed by others, try your best." ….

"I think, when you see this letter, you should be able to find two things, one is that the people in Huacheng can't be contacted with each other, and the other is that a person named Nan Ming Shi came to you.

"Let's talk about the personnel problem of Huacheng first, because of the invasion of that alien deformity, as well as the matter of the old star lord, many people inside the original Huacheng are now being investigated, and many people have been taken away when they landed, of course, there is no problem with a few of us, but communication is also restricted to prevent mutual ventilation.

"And on my side, I will lose contact with the future for a while, and I will talk when I have a chance to eat together after I am busy.

"Although I don't know if you care about others, I'll just roughly say that Xiaotong's situation is very good, she went to Tianlang Pavilion, and so is Quan Hu, he was blessed by misfortune, and got the resources of Tianlang Pavilion, and made up for his incomplete inheritance bloodline, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the future can be expected.

"That's all for the old things, after the incident in Huacheng, it will probably be some years before everyone meets again, especially you—that's the last thing I'm going to say.

"Nan Ming Master, you need to pay attention to this, each of the four life masters has different personalities and strange behaviors, but it is undeniable that no matter how much they pretend to be stupid and cute, they will do big things under the impetus of the inheritance, I don't know what the specific reason is, this is what Chen Jiu told me.

"You can treat these people as a standard-bearer, and the people and things they fancy are his pawns, although this metaphor is cruel, but it is true, but Xiao Zuo doesn't need to be too disgusted, or resist because of my words, you just need to consider whether it is beneficial to you, and whether it looks controllable.

"After all, in this life, the roles of chess pieces and chess players are not static, at least in terms of mind, I think you have some counts, and at the same time, if Nan Ming Shi has bad thoughts about you, then don't hesitate to go directly to Yance Mansion, the favor and contribution left by your parents are enough to offset this kind of problem."

"Tell me something you don't know, hey, I just found out too, your parents used to be students of the current chief of the Yance Mansion, didn't you expect that?

"I didn't expect that you kid would have such a big background, but it's not surprising, under the interference of many big people, the law of mysterious aggregation in Huacheng has been working for a long time, so that in the end, the matter of Huacheng is not at all something that can be solved by a local city, and it is normal to have one more freak for you."

"But I've heard that this chief is very old-fashioned, and it's useless to force relationships, but if you are really coerced by someone inside to do something you don't want to do, he won't stand idly by.

"In the end, with my efforts, I helped you figure out a way, and if what Nan Ming Shi wants you to do is not to your liking, then accept this.

"This can be your springboard, and it is also a real qualification, in a few years, Chen Jiu or I will transfer you out, or you continue to do it, you can have a lot to do, busy, have a chance to meet."

"Next time we meet, remember to call my aunt to listen, ha."

"Arbitrary letter

"Comprehensive Commission Department: Supervision Office, Taboo Review Division, Acting Deputy Director."

Zuo Dao looked at the content, and all that came to his face was the righteousness and concern of the rivers and lakes. ….

It's a pity that the team leader doesn't write about the rank and specific work of this department...

Seeing Zuo Dao put away the second document and was about to open the third one, Nan Mingshi spoke at this time:

"Chenjiu told me about this, the Supervision Department is the authority department of the Comprehensive Committee Department, and the main direction is to deal with internal problems and mysterious problems, seven of them, the Taboo Review Department is a fragrant unit, and they deal with all kinds of mysterious things all year round.

"Generally, when the following or other departments get specific clues, they will work together with this department, and the rank authority is at the state level, that is, the local city, and when they can't deal with it perfectly, they will be called.

"Although there is a risk factor, once you get to the deputy director's office, this kind of position of just signing meetings and supervising, the danger will be greatly reduced, and the credit can be regarded as low-hanging fruit."

Look at the south

The introduction of the life master, the left Dao's face was not obvious:

"Nan Ming Shi seems to be very confident in the last one."

"Nothing." Nan Ming Shi smiled and waved his hand.

Elsa, who has become a child, continues to drink tea tons and tons, only feeling that these two people are in trouble.

... Won't they get tired if they're so neat?

I'm sleepy...

As for Zuo Dao's side, when he saw the second seal, he knew that Nan Mingshi had played a little trick.

The other party doesn't know how to estimate their random choice.

Put the content that belongs to Nan Mingshi himself at the end.

This shows that the other side is confident.

It also proves that the Southern Destiny Master, who acted as a messenger, was aware of the contents of the other two documents.

And whether it was Yance Mansion or Chenjiu's side, they didn't deliberately want to hide it.

Zuo Dao understood this detail as a hint from the other two parties to him -

He can refuse Nanmingshi's proposal, but he needs to have a way, not too reckless, and not inappropriate, yes or no, it has to be clear.

He opened the third file—

"Codename: Operation Wilderness."

Zuo Dao picked up the thin piece of paper and shook it gently.

Because there is only one line in this document.

What is this old man doing?

Seeing this, Nan Mingshi put down the teacup and said solemnly for the first time:

"Operation Wilderness, I think you should have heard of it.

"The rest of the content will be communicated to you by the old man through consciousness exchange.

"Please believe me, only this time, the old man did not regard you as a flag, but he also pinned his hopes on you.

"It's up to you whether you choose it or not.

"If you accept it, in the future, the southern state, at least the old man's department, will be your most solid harbor.

"Far more than anyone else, until I die, it will be."
