Chapter 30: Joining the Division of Strange Affairs

In front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, Zhou Xu wore a tie awkwardly.

Today, he is wearing a black suit, looking very formal, and even the leather shoes on his feet are shiny and shiny.

Lu Zhiqiu looked at him from the side, and when he saw that he was grinding and chirping, he simply stepped forward and helped him tie it, and sorted out the edges of the corners of his clothes by the way.

"I really don't understand what suit the Alien Division wears, is it convenient to act like this?" She complained.

In response to the impending disaster in Binhai City, the teaching policy of the Faculty of Life Teachers has been adjusted, and from today, all students will enter different departments of Binhai City and carry out social practice.

In line with the principle of respecting the wishes of students, the college sent out a form two days ago for students to fill in the department they prefer.

Zhou Xu chose the Department of Foreign Affairs, and then was admitted, today is the first day of work!

Since the various departments of Binhai City are in the urban area, it is inconvenient to live in dormitories, so the college allows students to live in their homes.

Zhong Taiyan, the dean, also moved into the city, and then he will no longer be the dean of the Destiny Master Academy, but the wartime commander of Binhai City!

Zhou Xu naturally moved back to live in the house, so it was convenient to go to work in the Department of Foreign Affairs, and it was also convenient to accept Zhong Taiyan's guidance.

"On the first day of work, formal wear is just required, and what you wear in the back doesn't seem to interfere."

Zhou Xu smiled kindly at himself in the mirror, he heard that the staff of the Foreign Affairs Division had to contact a large number of people in society, and it was best to practice expression management.

"Oops, it's almost time. Auntie, I'll go first! ”

Zhou Xu looked at his watch, was startled, and hurried out of the house.

"Wait, bring breakfast to you."

Lu Zhiqiu stuffed breakfast into Zhou Xu's hand, Zhou Xu took it, and immediately ran out of the door.

Lu Zhiqiu came to the window, smoked a cigarette, and watched the youthful teenager downstairs leave in a hurry.

"Time flies so fast......"

Running wildly all the way, Zhou Xu finally entered the door of the Strange Affairs Division before work time.

At this time, he was hungry, so he had time to look at the breakfast that his aunt stuffed into his hand.

It looked like it was a sandwich, and it looked like it was an egg and bacon.

Smelling the smell of burning, Zhou Xu comforted himself that at least the lettuce in it was not burnt.

After devouring the sandwich, Zhou Xu came to the office, but found that there was no one.

Just as he was surprised, his cell phone rang.

"Come to the door, why are you late for the first day?" A stern, displeased male voice came from the phone.

Zhou Xu hurriedly ran out of the office building, and a car at the door reminded him twice.

"Zhou Xu, this way."

Hu Xinxin poked his head out of the rear window.

Zhou Xu hurriedly got into the car, and the driver was a man with a scar on his face.

"We met again, I didn't expect you to fall into my hands so soon." The scar man said with a smile, changing the tone of his previous phone call.

"What a coincidence."

Zhou Xu was quite surprised, this person was the scar man who served as a rating officer with Shen Zhu and Skylark before.

By the way, Shen Zhu said that Scar Man is a member of the Strange Affairs Division like her!

"Just call me Brother Qiu, from today onwards, you will work under me."

Brother Qiu said, and then started the car.

"I heard that both of you have become E-class life masters, I didn't expect it to be so soon. Especially you, Zhou Xu, I heard that you did very well in the licensing exam. Brother Qiu chatted while driving, and without the identity of the examiner, he seemed to have become much more talkative, and not as fierce as he seemed on the surface.

"It's just luck, I almost didn't survive." Zhou Xu replied.

"Luck is also part of strength, and we need luck when we are fortune masters." Brother Qiu said casually.

"Brother Qiu, where are we going?" Zhou Xu asked curiously.

"The work of the Department of Foreign Affairs, I basically travel around the city every day, and I rarely stay in the office. There was an anomalous incident at Marina University this morning, and we're going to deal with it now. Brother Qiu said.

Esplanade University?

Zhou Xu couldn't help but have a bright smile in his mind.

Soon the car drove to Binhai University, and at the school gate, Brother Qiu showed his ID card for the Department of Foreign Affairs, and the security guard did not dare to slack off and immediately let him go.

The roads of the Esplanade University are very clean, with trees and flowers on both sides.

Through the gaps in the greenery, you can see lakes, lawns, and small fresh buildings from time to time.

Zhou Xu looked curiously, if he hadn't become a life master, he would have entered Binhai University by now.

Life is like this, a choice, an opportunity, the future is very different.

Hu Xinxin also watched with some envy, some students were running around the football field, and some students were reading in the morning on the benches by the lake.

Suddenly, she saw a couple of men and women kissing on the side of the road, blushing suddenly, turning her head, just in time to see Zhou Xu.

Dappled sunlight shone onto Zhou Xu's face through the car window, and the breeze gently brushed his bangs.

Sunny, handsome.

Just like when he was in high school, he was always leaning against the railing of the hallway, looking at the blue sky and not knowing what he was thinking.

She always passed by him, but he never paid attention to her.

And now, the two are sitting in a car.

Hu Xinxin lowered his head and smiled happily.

The car drove to the downstairs of a boys' dormitory, and the downstairs had already been cordoned off by the people of the Department of Public Security.

A large number of students gathered downstairs in the dormitory, and there was a lot of discussion.

Zhou Xu and the three got out of the car, and the people from the Department of Public Security immediately cleaned up the crowd and invited the three into the dormitory building.

Generally, criminal cases of deceased people are resolved by the Department of Justice, and when biological anomalies are involved, they will only be referred to the Department of Strange Affairs.

The incident took place on the fifth floor, and the three were led by the police officer into a dormitory in the corner.

As soon as you enter the dormitory, the scene is shocking!

I saw an old male corpse lying on the ground, his eyes wide open with anger before he died, his eyes were red, he was holding a glass of water in his hand, and half of his body was charred.

If it weren't for the terrible scene he had already seen in the trial town, Zhou Xu wondered if he would vomit out his breakfast today.

"Who is this man? How could you die in a student dormitory? Is this dormitory unoccupied? Brother Qiu asked.

"This person is a student who lives here, named Sun Cailiang, although he can't understand it, his classmates have already identified it, and it is indeed him."

"Last night was the weekend, and Sun Cailiang's roommates all went out to open a room, and he was the only one in the dormitory. When my roommate came back this morning, the dormitory door wouldn't open, and no one answered the knock on the door, and the curtains were still drawn. ”

"Some roommates tried to pry open the window and open the curtains, only to see Sun Cailiang's body on the ground, and they were so frightened that they couldn't speak now."

"After the school called the police, after our investigation of the scene, the door of the dormitory was locked from the inside, the door of the balcony was also locked, and the curtains were still drawn on both sides, as if they didn't want people to see the situation inside."

The person from the Department of Security spoke in detail, and Zhou Xu boldly stepped forward as he spoke.

He found that the cup of water in the hand of the deceased seemed to have spilled a lot of water, and the water flowed to the ground, and it actually condensed into ice, and it was not completely melted yet!

"It's a secret room again, and it's the inexplicable aging of the body, it seems that it is indeed a biological anomaly."

Brother Qiu frowned, this case is really weird, it is the strange department who often deals with this kind of thing, and he has never heard of similar cases.

Taking out an energy detector from his arms, Brother Qiu approached the corpse and soon found that the pointer of the detector moved.

"There is a remnant of life energy, did the Destiny Master kill him?"

Brother Qiu muttered to himself, a little puzzled.

Cases of murder by the master are actually not uncommon, in the past, some ordinary people accidentally awakened their life, and after they had power, they would take revenge on those who had conflicts on weekdays.

This is also the reason why the life master must be registered, and if the life master with special powers is not controlled, it is easy to breed all kinds of problems.

But if the master kills people, he kills people, why do you want to create the illusion of a secret room?

Could it be that the murderer thought that the deceased looked like this, and people who saw it would think that he had committed suicide?

Brother Qiu was puzzled, and after examining the body, he asked, "What did you two find?" ”

Zhou Xu then said the problem of water on the ground, and Brother Qiu couldn't help but shake his head. "So this case is even weirder."

Hu Xinxin picked up a few books from the deceased's desk, "This person seems to be very interested in things related to the life master, and there are a lot of miscellaneous books in this area on the shelf. ”

This is barely a discovery, Brother Qiu pondered: "The corpse is inexplicably senile, charred, and there are signs of freezing next to it, the results of the autopsy are very important, and further judgment will have to wait for the forensic doctor." ”

Next, I checked the process for other abnormalities in the vicinity, and interrogated many students on the same floor, and by the time I left the dormitory building, it was already noon.

"Let's eat, what do you want to eat?"

Brother Qiu asked, and at this time, someone in the crowd shouted Zhou Xu's name.

Zhou Xu turned around and found that it was Xiao Tao, who had been on a blind date before and left each other's contact information!

Xiao Tao saw the surprise on his face and waved at him.

Zhou Xu was also quite surprised, and stepped forward to chat.

"Why did you come to Marina University?" Momo's smile is sweet.

"Work reasons."

Zhou Xu explained briefly, a little bit I didn't know what to talk about with the other party.

Although they left each other's contact information before, they didn't chat much, especially after Zhou Xu training became more and more busy, the two almost broke off contact.

"It's noon, have you eaten? Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner, our school cafeteria is delicious! ”

The little peach was generous, Zhou Xu was a little hesitant when he heard it, and looked back at Brother Qiu.

"Go ahead, remember to come back before two o'clock." Brother Qiu said with a smile.

Zhou Xu followed Xiao Tao away, Hu Xinxin looked at the back of the two leaving, and Brother Qiu called her a few times but didn't hear it.

Zhou Xu and Xiao Tao walked on the university campus, Xiao Tao's steps were brisk, and Zhou Xu in a suit looked very steady.

"I really didn't expect you to become a life master. When I asked where you want to apply, you said that Imperial Capital University would not be considered, and if you wanted to apply, it would also be Binhai University, so I was thinking, can you still not apply? Now it seems that you were determined to become a life guru at that time! ”

Xiao Tao can speak well, full of youthful vitality, Zhou Xu is a little embarrassed to look at her.
