Chapter 3 The Blessing of Immortality?
This is the third day that Lin Zuzu has returned home, and it is also the third day that Li Qing has monitored her, and at the same time, it is also the third day that the task has not progressed.
Mission content:
1. Observe whether the target behaves suspiciously and whether it has contact with suspicious people;
2. Find the reason why the target came back from the dead.
Looking at it now, he is still in contact with suspicious characters, Li Qing has never seen a person who lives so closed.
As soon as Lin Zuzu arrived home, he closed all the curtains, like a mushroom growing in the shade, and did not need the sun at all.
If it weren't for the urgent application for thermal imaging equipment, Li Qing would almost be helpless, after all, he was not from the Intelligence Bureau.
During the three days that she stayed at home, she did not have face-to-face contact with anyone except for the takeaway brother who delivered food to her door, which is of course understandable considering her physical condition. But even after such a serious injury, no one came to visit or take care of her.
Team 11 has taken into account whether there is a problem with the delivery staff, and it can be determined that they are all ordinary people according to Li Qin's all-round investigation.
Therefore, in order to complete the task assigned by this wayward captain, Li Qin could only brush his face again and ask for foreign help.
Lin Zuzu's most common thing to do these days is to take out a book from the bookshelf with difficulty, bury himself comfortably on the sofa, and then start to be in a daze.
"Knock knock."
There was a knock on the door, pulling her back into the real world, and for a moment she felt that something was wrong with the scene in front of her.
"Takeaway."
"Ah, just leave it at the door, thank you."
Lin Zuzu didn't have time to think about the sense of disobedience, she sighed lightly and got up slowly.
Outside the door, the short, mask-wearing delivery man did not leave, but responsibly handed the pork knuckle rice to the girl.
It seemed that seeing Lin Zuzu's miserable injury, he asked, "Is there any garbage that needs to be thrown away, I'll help you take it down." β
There are still a lot of good people in this world.
The previous medical expenses were also waived by the hospital because she was too pitiful, anyway, the doctor told her so, and said that there was no need to pay any fees for the reexamination. She didn't want to delve into the officer's unnatural state.
Lin Zuzu slowly reached out to grab the takeaway bags that had been piled up in the door for three days.
Seeing her struggling, the delivery man quickly leaned over and leaned half of her body into the house, put away all the plastic bags and lifted them up.
"Thank you so much."
"Let's go." So saying, he departed in the dust.
Lin Zuzu closed the door and returned to the sofa. She had just sat down to enjoy the fragrant pork knuckle rice, when she inadvertently looked up and made her stunned.
She finally realized where the scenery in front of her was abnormal.
It wasn't that she saw some flood beast, or that the strange black man had reappeared, but that she had just seen a photo on the TV standβthe only photo of the family of three.
She could clearly see the smiling faces of her father, her mother, and herself.
Of course, this is a normal thing for others, but Lin Zuzu has a myopia of 500 degrees!
Her glasses had been completely scrapped in the explosion, and she hadn't had time to reinstall them.
The distance from the sofa to the TV is a few meters, although it is not enough for her to distinguish between humans and animals, but it is impossible to see a small photo clearly.
She looked around the room and saw that it was not a hallucination.
Lin Zuzu, an ordinary person who has been highly myopic for many years, suddenly stopped being myopic.
Is this also a blessing for immortality?
A hint of uneasiness rose over her as she thought, she never thought she would have this.
There was another knock on the door.
She hesitated and walked over, and through the cat's eye she saw the man she wanted to see but didn't dare to see.
"Zuzu, are you at home?"
Zhang Xiuying's face was full of grief, her expression revealed a little humility, her eyes were red and swollen, and she seemed to have been crying for a long time. She carried two large bags in her hand and a small suitcase by her side.
"Zuzu, will you open the door? What the hell is wrong with you? β
Lin Zuzu was sure that she had not told anyone the news of her injury, and she would not post it on social platforms.
Well, the only thing that is possible is that phone call.
Those police officers, they ...... What was done? Is it because of good intentions?
"Is it okay for your mom to meet you? Please......" the woman begged bitterly.
Maybe it's the fragility of a serious injury, maybe it's the woman's expression that's moving, maybe it's her pleading...... Lin Zuzu only felt that something in his heart collapsed.
Oh, that's her strong defense.
"Click." The door opened.
Zhang Xiuying's excited expression was immediately replaced by surprise before she could fully float on her cheeks, and then she shed tears in her heartache.
Her daughter...... How could her baby daughter be so bruised? How did this happen? She didn't even want to tell herself that if it weren't for those kind policemen, she still knew everything.
Zhang Xiuying stretched out her hand and wanted to hug the girl, but she didn't dare to touch her, for fear of hurting her, so she stood beside the girl at a loss.
"Mom...... Mommy ......"
Lin Zuzu's emotions that had been suppressed for more than five years gushed out in an instant, and he cried like a child.
Of course, she was only seventeen years old.
"I miss you so much, woo woo, Mom, I really miss you so much......"
No matter what...... It really doesn't matter......
Lin Zuzu threw himself into the woman's arms and wrapped his left arm tightly around her neck.
This is the blessing she wants.
At the corner of the corridor, the short delivery man stood there, listening to the tear-jerking and touching reunion of the mother and daughter, but there was no wave in his heart.
Suddenly, he made a strange gesture with his right hand, and as he softly spat out the word "Jie" in his mouth, his whole body seemed to ripple so that people could not see it clearly.
After a while, the ripples dissipated. A pretty girl with a delicate figure appeared, looking sixteen or seventeen.
She was about to turn around and leave, but saw the takeout bag at her feet.
She hesitated for a few seconds, then finally pouted and picked them all up.
***
On the rooftop, Li Qing held a thermal imaging night vision device to Lin Zuzu's room, and he saw 2 groups of heat sources enter the room.
The mysterious girl suddenly appeared out of thin air, and pinched a different trick in her hand.
"Hey, Brother Qing, long time no see."
Li Qing put down the night vision device, turned his head and said, "Long time no see, Miss Ming." β
Ming Qiaoqiao smiled playfully and said, "Brother Qing, hurry up and pack up and go back to the team." β
"What do you mean?"
"This girl doesn't have any mental power at all, and even if that happened just now, I didn't notice any difference."
Li Qing didn't answer immediately, he lowered his eyes, and seemed uncomfortable with this.
Zhang Xiuying was indeed called by him.
No, that's not quite accurate, he just told her the truth about the accident that happened to the target.
He didn't know why he didn't want to see his mother, but ignoring the wishes of others for the sake of the mission wasn't something he was willing to do.
Although, this is a clever suggestion.
As a natural user of spiritual power, she clearly knows that ordinary human beings will burst out with tremendous power at the spiritual level when their emotions fluctuate violently. Therefore, if you are really talented, it will be easier to be noticed.
When the mother and daughter met, Ming Qiaoqiao used mind control spells to mess up the girl's heart. After she lost control of her emotions, she didn't show any signs of having mental talent.
So, this girl is just a Muggle.
As the descendants of Ming Chongyan, a master of illusion and physiognomy in the Tang Dynasty, the "Ming" clan has been one of the important family forces of the government since ancient times.
Not to mention, at the age of sixteen, she has already become a member of the "Courier" with her powerful mental power and skillful ability to manipulate illusions.
Therefore, Ming Qiaoqiao is very confident in her perception ability.
You know, the average age in this department is 21 years old.
Li Qing knew that she was not lying, and the biggest characteristic of the "messenger" was honesty.
Forbidden spells are carved into their tongues, and they cannot make any sound if they lie. The curse of death is also buried in the heart, and once you betray the government, you will immediately crush the heart.
Even if they are as powerful as aliens, once the heart is destroyed, it is useless, let alone weak humans.
Despite the harsh conditions, there were still many young people who wanted to join the Courier.
In the eyes of others, this is a job with more money and less work. You don't have to be out and about like the Einsatzgruppen or the Intelligence Agency, all the time, working hard and dying. Even when they come to live, they are always at a distance, and rarely go into battle at close range.
Of course, it is not for these superficial and practical reasons.
Or rather, her purpose is simpler -
Surpassing Ming Lifang, the head of the four "messenger chiefs". The head of her "Ming" clan is also her aunt.
"And how do you explain her resurrection?"
"Occasionally, there will be soft-hearted gods, right?" Ming Qiaoqiao no longer cares about that ordinary girl.
"Speaking of which, Sister Qin'er still hasn't changed her mind?"
"You know my sister, she's like that."
"Brother Qing, you too, with the strength of the two of you, why do you want to nest in this small 11th team, and be ...... by that waste wood captain"
"Miss Ming, go back and rest early, thank you very much for your assistance today." This was the first time Li Qing had interrupted her.
Ming Qiaoqiao pouted and said, "I'm also looking at Sister Qin'er's face." Tell her that the Courier is still very welcoming to her. β
Li Qing nodded, but he knew that his sister, who had refused the invitation of the "messenger" many times, and even did not hesitate to seal most of his spiritual power, would never change her mind so easily.
On the rooftop, calm returns.
Li Qing looked at Lin Zuzu again and was surprised to find that the thick curtains had been opened.
Zhang Xiuying moved 2 chairs to the balcony, helped Lin Zuzu to sit down, and the mother and daughter basked in the sun together.
She is very different now than she was when she was in the hospital.
At that time, she was polite and restrained, always looking at other people's faces carefully, even if she was so seriously injured, she never complained or was depressed.
Except when she was on the phone, she never showed strong emotions.
Only...... Like a non-poisonous mushroom, he doesn't want to attract too much attention from others, and lives a low-key and lonely life.
Li Qing looked at her relaxed smile at the moment and made a decision to go against the captain's mission.
That's good, don't be a little mushroom anymore.
