Following.

Santo Domingo, valley district.

David yawned heavily, pushed open the bedroom door and walked to the living room, only to find it empty.

"Mom?"

He tried to shout, but saw Gloria's bedroom door open, but didn't respond.

"Where did you go so early in the morning?"

David muttered and walked into the bathroom and began to wash up and get ready for work.

Yesterday he got off the morning shift, and after eating with Tang Yu at noon, he felt that the whole person seemed to be much better.

David picked up a puddle of cold water in both hands, rubbed his face vigorously, instantly refreshed himself, and then looked up at himself in the electronic mirror screen.

The eyebrows and bones are vaguely angular, which is a bit of an adult.

David couldn't help but recall yesterday's words, Tang Yu told him, Be yourself.

It's a pity that he wasn't too angry at the time, crying a lot, obviously not understanding the meaning of the words, but inexplicably moved himself.

David grabbed his face tightly with both palms, only to feel a wave of regret welling up in his heart, and he wanted to find a hole to get into.

When he went to bed last night, this damn memory and scene kept sneaking up on him, and every time he thought of crying in front of Tang Yu, he was so embarrassed that he almost twisted into a worm in the bed.

What a shame!

He David is also a man who is about to turn eighteen, how can he lose his temper and cry in front of Mr. Tang.

And what Mr. Tang said, now that I savor it, it doesn't seem like a comfort, nor like an encouragement, how can I be so easily moved, so that when I think of Tang Yu now, my mind is full of chaos.

"Little brother, Mr. Tang calls me little brother"

"Alas, it's still a child"

"But, Mr. Tang seems to be quite good to me"

David put down his hands, and his big face was covered with ten finger prints, red.

He looked at himself in the mirror and fell into an extremely tangled situation.

"Do you want to go to the company today?"

"I hope Mr. Tang can forget about yesterday's noon."

"Don't do such stupid things again, it's okay to ask Mr. Tang to dinner"

David slapped his face and tried to cheer himself up.

No matter how embarrassing it is, you have to go to work hard, it's a big deal to hide a little, after a long time, Mr. Tang will naturally forget about this stubble.

David firmly believes that Tang Yu, as the deputy minister of the two departments, must be busy to death, where can he have time to remember these things.

He took two deep breaths in the mirror, sorted out his appearance, and ran to the living room to change clothes.

Suit, tie, leather shoes, and finally some hair oil to fix the hairstyle.

David in the mirror seems to be a company employee.

The suit was newly bought for him by Gloria, and it was considered a relatively high-grade outfit, although it was not as good as the luxury goods of Jinguji, but it was enough to cope with work.

David deeply understands his mother's intentions, because he doesn't want to be looked at strangely because of his clothes when he interns at Arasaka Tower.

After tidying up, David opened the door and set off towards Arasaka Tower, starting a busy day for the company's dogs.

It didn't take long.

David arrives at his destination, the Counterintelligence Department on the 33rd floor of the Arasaka Tower.

He greeted the front desk as usual, and then walked to his office, only to find that everyone was all there.

David looked at the time suspiciously, it was still early to go to work, could it be that today was another big day?

After working in the Counterintelligence Department for a while, he discovered that his colleagues in the department had a habit.

Whenever something big happened yesterday, or something big is about to happen today, everyone will come very early, and then get together in groups to gossip and discuss.

It's like you can skip breakfast, but you can't listen to gossip, it's like the stock market is open, trading all kinds of fresh information early in the morning, and the counterintelligence department really makes a living from intelligence.

David, who was gradually getting used to everything, pretended to be absent-minded and slowly paced towards the office.

As I passed by other colleagues' tables, I could hear some gossip in pieces.

Some female colleagues will complain about their husbands, some male colleagues will complain about the high-end places they go to, and some will discuss the latest developments in other companies.

David almost didn't understand, and he couldn't interject at all, just like a little guy who had just entered the city, and it was fresh and enjoyable to listen to what the big brothers talked about.

But today, all colleagues seem to be talking about the same problem.

"Something is wrong, I heard that there was the latest personnel change late last night, very suddenly, a colleague from the personnel department secretly said it."

"I've heard the wind too, it may have something to do with our department."

"It can't be that a new person is coming, the boss has been on a business trip for so long, and there is no news."

"I've heard it's a senior department, and I guess it's most likely the new deputy minister."

"Huh?!"

The new deputy minister?

David's heart was suddenly shocked, and he almost went to the wrong place in his work.

He hurriedly returned to his workstation, turning on the electronic screen and pretending to tidy up the desktop, while pricking up his ears to listen to the chats of his colleagues.

If the new deputy minister is really coming, then the matter will be big, and Mr. Tang may be in trouble.

He listened attentively to the exchange of information with several colleagues.

A amorous sister, wearing a pair of black stockings, whispered: "This is not a blind guess, it is well-founded, you think about it, the number of times Donald has come to our department, you can count it on your fingers."

Another short-haired cool girl chimed in: "Yes, and according to the Special Operations Department, Donald hasn't been to them, and he left yesterday after reimbursing the funds." ”

"It's obvious, Boss Tang is shaking his face and they see, in the past, it was a big department, and every time they cooperated, they wiped their tails, and they were annoyed when they thought about it!"

Sister Feng saw it more thoroughly, and confidently analyzed: "How can it be so simple, when it comes to their level, how can they care about these things, what I want to say is that Donald has never been to the Special Operations Department, and the board of directors will definitely not let it go, nine times out of ten they are talking about this." ”

Sister Feng's legs under her short skirt changed positions again, folded them up and continued to speak: "Since Donald is in two departments, the Counterintelligence Department is too busy, so it is natural to arrange a new deputy minister to share the burden, and this matter has been mentioned by the board of directors before, but it has not been approved." ”

Sister Ku exclaimed in a low voice: "Then this time, the new deputy minister, the airborne landing is so fast, I'm afraid it was arranged by the above, it was determined in one night, this speed is too fast, I'm afraid it's not small." ”

Sister Style nodded meaningfully, expressing her agreement with what Sister Ku said, and then added: "Don't guess, you'll know when you go to work, Boss Tang may not come today, let's wait and see what happens." ”

Sister Ku said sourly: "Alas, I don't want to have more than one mountain, Boss Tang is the best alone!" ”

Sister Feng smiled helplessly, the corners of her mouth hooked up shallow dimples, and sighed silently in her heart: "Who is not, I haven't reported to Boss Tang alone, and I don't know if there is a chance, alas." ”

Several people sighed, and when they saw that the time was almost up, they all returned to their workbenches one after another, sorted out their moods and started today's work.

After listening to this, David Martinez sat in his seat and was immediately distraught.

These intelligence news were simply too shocking for him.

The Ministry of Counterintelligence actually needs one more deputy minister, so Tang Yu will have one more competitor.

He knew what the people around him said about Tang Yu, and they all said that he was a lone wolf and it was too easy to offend people.

Whether it is Susan Abernathy, the director of special operations, or the director of the R&D department, Tanaka, or the large and small staff of other departments, they all have a bad impression of Tang Yu, thinking that he is not easy to deal with and likes to put on music.

David doesn't think so, after being in contact with Tang Yu for a while, he thinks that he is not as cold and majestic as everyone says.

David admitted in his heart that he couldn't understand or guess Tang Yu at all.

Tang Yu's world is unattainable.

Whether it is the height he is at, or his hidden inside, outsiders have no way of knowing.

But David firmly believes in his intuition, just like Tang Yu's words, which will inexplicably touch the depths of his heart, obviously not a big reason, but there is a sense of healing.

However, the struggle and arrangement of the company's top management are not at all known and intervened by him as an intern.

Who will be the deputy minister can only be left to fate.

David looked up at the aisle of the office area, but he didn't see a familiar figure, he was anxiously waiting, waiting for the moment to go to work.

Minutes and seconds passed.

The entire office area began to fall silent, as if to signal that this was a sign before the storm.

Many colleagues began to look around, staring in the direction of the public elevator.

Suddenly.

There was a commotion in the direction of the public elevator, as if a group of people were coming, and the colleagues in the office area were immediately alerted, realizing that they should be coming or coming, and they all pricked up their ears to listen to the movement at the front desk.

The front desk of the department saw a group of people walking out of the public elevator, talking and laughing, surrounded by Arasaka bodyguards, obviously the company's top management, and the front desk immediately got up to greet them.

The group walked up to the front desk, and someone immediately said, "This is your new deputy secretary of counterintelligence, Ms. Kate." ”

The front desk scanned the identity and recognized the other party as the deputy minister of personnel, and quickly reacted and politely saluted: "Ms. Kate, good morning." ”

Kate looked arrogant, her brown and red hair was tied in two strands, and her eye sockets were cyber-implanted and transformed into a square vision system processor, emitting a faint red light.

She was expressionless and didn't say much.

HR executives then asked, "Is Mr. Jenkins in the office?" ”

The front desk replied: "Mr. Jenkins is on a business trip and has not been working in the department recently. ”

The deputy minister of personnel was a little displeased, and then asked, "What about your vice minister, Mr. Tang?" ”

The front desk told the truth and replied: "Mr. Tang is on a field trip and is not working in the department today. ”

When the new deputy minister took office, there was not a single high-level person in the huge counterintelligence department who came out to receive him, which was somewhat contemptuous.

The deputy minister of personnel clearly remembered that the notice of appointment had already been sent to Arthur Jenkins, and the new deputy minister should not have been treated so coldly.

The deputy minister of personnel knew that Kate's background was not simple, and she could suddenly become a deputy minister overnight, and she couldn't deal with the past at will, so she asked a little angrily: "Then is your new deputy minister's office ready?" ”

Front desk: "."

He only felt confused, he didn't receive any notice, how could he prepare the deputy minister's office in advance.

The Counterintelligence Department does have a free independent office, but it has not been notified who will take care of the idle office.

The deputy minister of personnel directly reprimanded angrily: "Then don't hurry up and arrange it!" ”

The front desk was criticized for no reason, and quickly began to notify people to tidy up the office.

Kate was on the side, and said in a cold tone: "It's just to come and see today, so let's send it here." ”

Hearing the main speaker, the deputy minister of personnel consciously sent off the post in place, and there is really no need to stay here.

The executives of the company who accompanied her here were deflated when they saw Kate on her first day in office, and knew that she was not very happy in her heart, so they no longer reluctantly stayed.

After saying goodbye to everyone, they left the Counterintelligence Department.

At the front desk, only Kate, the new deputy minister, and another subordinate who had been newly transferred from the Special Operations Department to the Counterintelligence Department.

Kate didn't pay attention to the front desk, walked directly towards the office area, and began to patrol on her own.

Since she had already reported to the Counterintelligence Department, the Personnel Department generated information about Kate's new job identity, and the Counterintelligence Department employees could scan it to confirm their identity.

Kate's face did not change, and she paced down the aisle, carefully examining the layout and details of the counterintelligence department.

Some of the staff of the counterintelligence department who passed by looked at her with some curiosity, and after discovering that the other party was the new deputy minister, they immediately put on a smiling face and took the initiative to salute: "Good morning, Ms. Kate." ”

Kate didn't squint, as if she regarded the people around her as air, and didn't pay attention to it at all.

Not much.

Kate walked to the counterintelligence office and immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Many of the staff who were working looked up at Kate and looked at the new deputy minister.

David also saw the new deputy minister for the first time, and he only felt that the other party was walking slowly, with a strong aura, and he looked like he was not close to anyone, and he was not easy to mess with.

Kate glanced coldly around the office area, without any words, just stared at everyone for a while.

In the hearts of everyone present, a slight chill could not help but rise, this posture and attitude are obviously not easy to serve.

The employees hurriedly lowered their heads and began to work, pretending that nothing had happened.

David also lowered his head smartly, so as not to make eye contact with Kate and cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

When he saw the new deputy minister, he couldn't help but mutter.

"I didn't expect it to be parachuted in from the R&D department, and the relationship between Mr. Tang and Tanaka doesn't seem to be very harmonious, will it be related to Katsuo Tanaka again."

"And I feel like she's weird and scary, I'm afraid it's not easy to get along with."

"Mr. Tang didn't come to work today, did he deliberately let her?"

"Probably not, Mr. Tang is not even afraid of the director, how can he be afraid of a new deputy minister, nine times out of ten he is out in the field, after all, as a deputy minister of two departments, it is normal to be busy."

David speculated carefully in his heart about what kind of impact the new deputy minister would have, and what Tang Yu planned to do.

"Well, the technique is good, there is progress."

The early morning sun was just shining through the mist.

Tang Yu was sitting on the balcony, basking in the sun leisurely, and it was another day when he didn't have to go to work.

The only difference is that there is an extra cat lady in the family.

Sasha stood obediently behind Tang Yu, placing her slender fingertips on his temples, gently pressing and making circles.

She is a little strange, as a special assistant, assisting Tang Yu in his work is her main responsibility.

But Tang Yu told her today that she didn't have to go to work, so she would go out at home.

Sasha doesn't quite understand why he is at home when he goes out on a field trip, shouldn't he be running a mission?

Although he didn't understand it very well, he still followed Tang Yu's will and stayed at home to continue the maid service.

Tang Yu knew that Sasha was still in the learning stage, and she couldn't let her guess everything by herself, and with her brain, I was afraid that the more she thought about it, the more crooked she became.

"If you have any questions, just ask them directly, and hold them in your head to figure out what will go wrong."

When Sasha heard Tang Yu speak, his eyes immediately flashed with a hint of brilliance, and he immediately asked.

"Mr. Tang, Sasha wants to know, why do you stay at home when you go out on duty, isn't this a holiday?"

Tang Yu was a little helpless, and while closing his eyes to recuperate, he casually explained: "How can the matter of going out on business be called a holiday, at most it can only be regarded as fishing, let me ask you, what is my identity now." ”

Sasha replied very simply: "The Counterintelligence Department, the Special Operations Department, the Deputy Minister of the Dual Departments!" ”

Tang Yu then asked: "Then which department do you say I should go to work, is it the Counterintelligence Department, or the Special Operations Department?" ”

Sasha thought about it for a while, and said decisively: "Go for both!" ”

Tang Yu: "."

He had to go around in circles again and ask, "Then how much salary and performance do I receive?" Who will issue the task bonus? ”

Sasha had a clear understanding of the information related to his position, and replied again: "Receive a salary, which will be paid by the finance of the Special Operations Department, and the task bonus will be paid according to the actual situation!" ”

Tang Yu said as a matter of course: "That's right, I get a salary, but I have to go to work in two departments, so I can only cut it in half." ”

Sasha hurriedly shook his head anxiously and denied: "You can't cut it in half!" Can't be cut in half! ”

Tang Yu pretended to be tired, and explained helplessly: "So you understand, when I go to work in the Counterintelligence Department, the Special Operations Department will not be happy, and when I go to work in the Special Operations Department, the Counterintelligence Department will not be happy, so I will simply go out on duty, so that I don't have to worry about it." ”

He sighed again: "And it's hard to go out on the job, do you think I'm easy?" I'm just waiting for an opportunity to raise my strength. ”

"When the big task comes, it will naturally be my contribution, and if I don't rest now, where will I get the strength to work when the time comes?"

After listening to it, Sasha felt quite reasonable, and then nodded approvingly: "Then Sasha has to work hard, strive to let Mr. Tang rest and relax, do you need Sasha to change the mode, it is recommended that you change the intimacy mode, set it to 70%, Sasha can help you press more places!" ”

Tang Yu: "."

Seeing that Tang Yu did not agree, Sasha did not continue to sell, but reminded: "Mr. Tang, Sasha has just noticed that the high-level positions of the Counterintelligence Department have been renewed, and Kate has been appointed as the new deputy minister. ”

Tang Yu naturally knew about this matter, and Arthur Jenkins sent him a message late at night, saying that a new deputy minister had been transferred from the R&D department.

Arthur Jenkins was so annoyed by this that he parachuted in the deputy secretary from the outside department without any communication with him, which was obviously too disrespectful.

While he was on a business trip, he couldn't reconcile the situation in time, and he was attacked by someone, which was really unbearable.

So Tang Yu and his old boss Jenkins simply didn't do anything, and they didn't go to receive Kate today, so that she could play in the ministry by herself.

When the game is full of chickens and dogs, and the sky is angry, Jenkins will go back to the end and press Kate well.

The new vice minister took office, and for Tang Yu, this matter was in the middle of the matter.

He wished he hadn't even sat in the squad of the Counterintelligence Department, if it weren't for the face of his old boss Jenkins, and the fact that the ministry really couldn't be empty, he would have gone to do private work a long time ago.

It's good now, a new deputy secretary came, let her toss it, just pretend that she doesn't know anything, and wait for Jenkins to come back and clean her up.

Tang Yu knew that Kate was from the R&D department, and he also brought a follower Douglas from the Special Operations Department.

No matter how he looked, there was a smell of conspiracy, and it was aimed at him Tang Yu.

A gentleman must know how to avoid its edge, and it is better to have less in this class!

Tang Yu opened his eyes and looked at Sasha, and said helplessly: "You better take care of yourself first, go back and buy two clothes, don't wear mine every day." ”

"Sasha thinks she fits well, so she doesn't need to buy a new one!"

Tang Yu: "This is an order!" ”

Sasha was aggrieved.

Instant noodles: "Thank you to the 'little Awen' gold lord and the helmsman for rewarding the work, instant noodles will be closed in the small black house, and I will work hard to write a book at night!" ”

Johnny: "V, I'm tired, let's destroy, put this under the window of the little dark room, screw the volume to the maximum, shake all the glass open, and then wait to see the show!" ”

V: "Go yourself, Johnny!" ”

Instant noodles: "??? ”
