"Sir."

The bumps in the road have already made Lao Chen and others expect not to meet this mysterious and powerful person.

After all, a small accident of fate can make people who need to meet easily miss it.

This time, after looking at Jing Chen through the rain curtain, the three of Lao Chen almost didn't hesitate to identify it as this mysterious powerful man.

There will be no one else waiting for them in the ocean here.

"Investigator Tatsu."

Jing Chengang's somewhat irritable mood calmed down a little, and he looked at the three investigators of the Investigation Bureau in front of him.

Lao Chen and the three of them burst out with their abilities, galloped to him and behind him, and also found a driftwood to settle down, controlling the undulating wind and waves on the side to calm down a little, and the body returned to its original state.

Jing Chen's response made the three of Lao Chen further confirm their identities - as long as the face of this mysterious and powerful man turned around, they couldn't remember it clearly.

"Sir. Are you waiting for us? ”

At this moment, facing this mysterious and powerful man, Lao Chen's mood was a little complicated.

He didn't know if he would be able to get an answer from the mysterious gentleman again this time.

It's just another powerful one, the suggestion of the 'Revelation', and Lao Chen's decision based on his judgment of this powerful one.

However, after coming here, I can see this mysterious gentleman here, and I also give the reptiles, and the three of them have more expectations.

"Hmm."

Jing Chen just responded.

Hearing this, Lao Chen looked at this mysterious gentleman, paused and then said,

"Sir, some of the information you gave us last time is that we already have directions. The 'order' of fate may keep the Lord of Calamity away. ”

"But we couldn't find 'luck' or a way to deal with the follow-up."

“…… Now, the main problem we face is that perhaps we can use the power of fate to solve the crisis of the Lord of Calamity.

But what this brings may make the thread of fate implicate more people and make the whole world die in silence...... We lack the means to restrain and stop Him. ”

"We can't stop the thread of fate from appearing on more people's heads and fixing everyone's 'destiny trajectory'."

"Hmm."

Lao Chen said, Jing Chen answered again, still looking at Lao Chen and the three of them.

The Silk Thread of Destiny......

“…… Sir ought to know the 'Him' of the Anomaly, in fact, we have asked Him what 'luck' is before here. ”

"But the generous Him, this time the 'stingy' did not give any answer."

Lao Chen paused and then spoke again.

'Luck' is almost the only hope, and the Bureau of Anomalies has made every attempt to find it.

But I don't know if it's fate interfering, even the almost omniscient He has not been able to give an answer to this question.

"Mr. ......"

Lao Chen looked at this mysterious powerful man almost with some extravagance, sir.

Jing Chen looked at the three senior investigators of the Abnormal Investigation Bureau and paused,

He wasn't so sure about the answer to the question.

Concentrated, Jing Chen once again peeked at the picture of Lao Chen's short future,

On Lao Chen's body in the ephemeral future picture, above his head, the silk thread of fate looms, and it is still a little vague.

"Give me a try."

Jing Chen said again to Lao Chen.

"Sir, tell me."

Some expectant Lao Chen heard Jing Chen's words and responded without much hesitation.

"You can just go over and talk to those two before you come back."

Jing Chen turned his head and looked at the old man Hong and his wife on the driftwood not far away.

"Okay, I'll go then."

Lao Chen followed Jing Chen's gaze and looked to the side, and then nodded in response.

Immediately after, without much hesitation, he turned around and rushed towards the piece of driftwood where Old Man Hong and his wife were.

Jing Chen stood on the driftwood on this side, turning his head to look at Lao Chen, who was approaching Old Man Hong.

Jing Chen is not entirely sure what exactly 'lucky' means.

It's just the white silk thread that fate manipulates things, Jing Chen remembers that he once broke the white silk thread on Lao Chen's head.

Now, Jing Chen wants to try again.

……

“…… Guests coming? ”

"What do you want to ask?"

When Lao Chen arrived in front of Old Man Hong, he landed on the side of the driftwood at Old Man Hong's feet.

Old man Hong is still the same as ever, smiling and greeting Lao Chen.

"What is luck, sir?"

Lao Chen looked at Old Man Hong and asked again.

It's just that when this question was asked, Old Man Hong was still the same as last time, just smiling, as if he didn't realize it.

“…… I would like to ask about my fate next. ”

"All is calm."

"All is well?"

"Yes, all is calm. Brother, don't worry, this is the revelation of fate, and fate will definitely give you the best arrangement. ”

Old man Hong said with a smile again.

Lao Chen just turned around and looked at Jing Chen here.

Jing Chen nodded, signaling that Lao Chen could come back.

In the brief picture of the peeking future, there is already a white silk thread on the top of Lao Chen's head.

Lao Chen saw Jing Chen nodding, so he turned around again and came back from that side.

Jing Chen turned his head again at this time and looked at the other two investigators,

“…… Go over and kick Investigator Tatsu into the flood. ”

Jing Chen looked at the reptile and Yinhu, and said calmly.

The reptile raised its head, looked at Jing Chen, and directly turned into a shadow and walked towards Lao Chen.

"Haha...... I'm good at this. ”

Yinhu paused, smiled, and galloped over using the power of the storm.

“…… Boom! ”

Lao Chen over there didn't know if he heard Jing Chen's words, or out of trust in his colleague and the other two investigators.

Watching the two of them attack him, he didn't resist too much.

In one fell swoop, it fell into the raging flood and made a lot of splashes.

Next to him, the reptile that turned into a shadow and the Yin Hu, who controlled some storm abilities, watched quietly.

Lao Chen, whose whole body was submerged in the flood, moved a few more times in the flood, and resurfaced his head from above the surging flood.

And in the eyes of Jing Chen here,

On Lao Chen's head, the silk thread that had just been implicated by fate disappeared again, or rather, it was broken.

It's like a marionette's thread, which can implicate the fate of the marionette,

But if the marionette goes too far, it will also break the thread.

The established fate was disrupted and detached from the arrangement of fate.

It's just that it is impossible for marionettes to escape the trajectory of fate on their own...... Unless someone kicked him.

Maybe that's 'lucky'.

Not controlled by fate, accidental outside of fate.

It is also the answer to the question that Jing Chen found, after the King of Disaster left, he used the same method to break the thread of fate on the heads of some people and break the arrangement of fate.

In other words, this matter needs to be done by Jing Chen himself - I don't know if it's because of his ability to peep into the future or the chaotic future, in fact, he can obviously be regarded as that 'accident outside of fate'.

The "Lord of Calamity" can do the same, and the arrival of a great catastrophe destroys all the established arrangements of fate.

But obviously, that's not what the Bureau of Heterogeneity and humanity want.

"Sir."

Lao Chen, who was soaked wet, returned to Jing Chen and the other two investigators, and did not ask Jing Chen the reason for his actions just now.

Just waiting for the results after Jing Chen's attempt.

“……”

Jing Chen's divergent thoughts retracted, and he turned his gaze back to look at Lao Chen and the other two investigators,

"The attempt has been completed. You can go back and restore the order of your destiny according to your intended plan until the calamity is far away. ”

"Also, give me the identities of all four people."

There was no need to bother, Jing Chen directly asked the Bureau of Abnormal Investigation for the information of those four people.

Listening to Jing Chen's words, the reptile raised his head, Lao Chen, Yin Hu, and the three of them all looked at Jing Chen and stopped moving.

They came to this mysterious powerful man because they lacked the means to restrain their fate,

And now, after an attempt, this mysterious and powerful man has given this answer.

Lao Chen turned his head again and looked at the position of Old Man Hong next to him.

Obviously, the attempt just now has something to do with fate.

"Okay."

At this time, the Abnormal Adjustment Bureau, Lao Chen and others could only believe in this mysterious powerful man,

Especially, in cases where they have no other choice of their own.

Looking back at this mysterious and powerful man, after a pause, Lao Chen solemnly responded.

Yin Hu took out a communicator similar to a mobile phone terminal, opened the identity information of the four people related to fate, and handed it to Jing Chen.

Jing Chen took it, read it several times in turn, and wrote down the most critical information.

"Alright."

"That'...... Mr. This time, we'll take our leave. ”

"When the floodwaters subside, the clouds disperse, and the weather warms up again, we'll come back to visit."

This time, before Lao Chen left again, there was a trace of hesitation in his eyes.

Perhaps the wind and waves will fade under the influence of fate, but it is not yet known what the world will be like after the flood has receded.

"Can you tell me, sir, what exactly 'lucky' is?"

In the end, Yinhu couldn't help but say more.

"I'm not sure. I'm not entirely sure. ”

Jing Chen answered truthfully.

"It's okay, it's enough for the sir to have an answer."

Yinhu listened to Jing Chen's words, but laughed,

"That sir...... Leave. ”

The three of them all looked at Jing Chen and said goodbye solemnly again.

Then they didn't stop any longer, and each used their own abilities, just like the direction they came, and left quickly.

"Hmm."

Jing Chen just answered, watching the three of them quickly disappear into the night.

Is this also a matter of fate?

In addition to the thread of fate, does fate have other means to influence people?

Jing Chen couldn't help but diverge his thoughts, and then shook his head, stopping this endless and meaningless thinking.

He paused again, thinking about what he had just seen, the relevant information of the four people, towards the other direction under the torrential rain and above the flood,

Fade into a shadow and leave quickly.

On the other side,

On the driftwood, Old Man Hong was still talking to his wife, just like usual.

“…… Come, take another sip of hot water. When it rains, there are always fewer visitors. ”

"Hmm...... Wife, what are we going to eat in the evening? ”

"Let's stir-fry some greens......"

"Hmm...... Wait for the rain to stop and the guests will come. Come and listen to God's guidance...... Everything is the best arrangement. ”

……

“…… This mysterious and powerful man on the banks of the Wang'an River is already somewhat beyond our cognition and understanding. ”

"Does he really have to be a 'human'?"

On the way back to the Anomaly, the ship they abandoned coincidentally appeared in his field of vision.

The three of them stood on the boat again.

Yinhu raised his head, looked at the flood waves in front of him, and said to Lao Chen after being silent for a while.

Lao Chen turned his head and just replied,

"There is no point in inquiry...... There is no need to explore. ”

"Just be on our side...... Even if he's playing a fun game, all we can do is play with him. ”

Listening to Lao Chen's words, Yinhu nodded and didn't speak again.

"According to our previous arrangement, use the power we can use to start restoring the 'order' of the fate of those four people in turn."

“…… Well. The first one was originally a teacher training student who originally lived in the south of Wang'an City, a fresh unemployed normal student. ”

"According to the words of the believer of fate, this person should pass the school interview during this time and start a new, calm and repetitive teaching life."

"The reality is that with the floods and torrential rains, it is impossible for schools to remain open, and the original recruitment plan has naturally been put on hold. Before we found him, he was trapped on the third floor of his rented apartment. ”

"The area is a little low, and the flood has already reached his floor, and it is expected to be submerged in half a day."

"At present, we have been moved to a temporary settlement on the southern edge of the city, on higher ground."

"Hmm...... Let's get started as planned. ”

……

“…… Thank you. Lad. ”

"No thanks, didn't you see this, uncle, I'm also a volunteer."

"Know, know...... Oh, by the way, boy, are you all right...... It sounded like you were a little uncomfortable before. ”

"It's alright...... All right...... I just fell asleep and had a nightmare. ”

An indoor temporary settlement on slightly higher ground. Two next to the gap between the tents, a thin young man with a volunteer sleeve,

While changing the gauze on the arm of the uncle next to him, he was talking to the uncle.

Listening to the uncle's words of concern for him, the thin young man paused, and there were some doubts and uncertainties in his eyes.

He didn't know what had happened to him before.

"Didn't the doctors come before, and they all said they were fine."

"It's okay, it's okay...... By the way, young man, you are also studying medicine, this bandaging is really meticulous. ”

"That's not it, I studied as a teacher, or I came out to be a teacher. It's a simple way to learn a little first aid bandaging. ”

"It's good to be a teacher, it's good to be a teacher...... Unlike me, life is not good. ”

"How can there be a bad life...... Everything is arranged by the best of fate. ”

The young man smiled and answered again, and the old man paused, raised his head and looked at the young man.

"Really...... It's all fate...... But you're not a teacher...... Why don't you apply? ”

The uncle paused, then raised his head again and asked suddenly.

"Apply? What are you applying for? You can't still let me apply for a job right now, right? ”

The young man listened inexplicably, first said, and then couldn't help laughing,

"If I want to find a job now, I always have to wait until the rain stops and the floodwaters subside."

"You can't let me stand in the flood and teach the students."

"You don't know, young man."

"The flood will not go away for a while, and the torrential rain will not stop. Children are messing around in the resettlement site, and the authorities want to set up classes in the resettlement site. ”

"Find some teachers and get the class back up...... And...... Say to the contract. ”

As he spoke, the old man lowered his voice, quietly touched it, and said mysteriously to the young man,

“…… You said that at this time, when there is a shortage of teachers, when we don't have many teachers here, it is easy for you to apply, or it will be easy for you to apply at that time. ”

“…… What stage of teacher do you want...... It's too small, it's too big, and I don't learn it right. ”

"What do you care...... Young man, I didn't say you. Let's go and stop the pit first. ”

At the instigation of the old man, the young man was a little moved,

"Anyway, I don't ask for much attention to the quality of your teaching now, just let the child have a place to go......"

"Uncle, where is that...... Why didn't you listen to it......"

"Hey, you're looking for the official in charge, they're all arranging this...... Okay, you've bandaged me too. Don't hesitate, let's go. ”

"Now...... It's getting dark, isn't it a little ......?"

"Good things are not afraid of being late, delay one night, and dream a lot at night......"

Pushed and coaxed, half-flickering, the young man walked in the direction pointed out by the uncle.
