Thirty-sixth floor, Sherman Building, William's Office.

Zhang Jiao crossed his legs and sat on the assessment position in the application room.

In front of him, the four detectives who had come to apply for the job were lined up, sitting behind large desks in two positions.

Ann sat next to him, dressed in a tight denim suit.

At this moment, he was staring at the four candidates sitting in front of him with great interest, with a malicious smile on his face, as if he was expecting something.

This kind of vision made the four detectives who came to apply for the job in front of them very uneasy, and they always felt that something bad was going to happen.

The four of them immediately became a little more cautious in their hearts, and their spirits were highly concentrated, waiting for the instructions of the examiner Zhang Jiao in front of them, striving to pass the assessment smoothly.

After all, the salary offered by the firm in front of him is too generous to be unimpressed.

Zhang Jiao looked at the four confident applicants in front of him, and suddenly thought of his experience of applying for jobs in college.

The corners of his mouth smiled slightly, and he shouted softly to the side.

"Ann. ”

Ann immediately stood up, took out four file bags from the filing cabinet next to her, and placed them in front of the applicant.

The four of them suddenly tightened their hearts, knowing that the assessment was about to begin.

Zhang Jiao looked at the four people who were ready, slowly took out a vintage-style gilt hollow pocket watch from his pocket, then opened the cover with a ding, looked down at the time on it, and suddenly said when the hands were about to reach the hour.

"Gentlemen, please open the first document bag on the left, take out the atlas inside, and in two minutes I will ask you questions, and write the answers on the white paper in front of you. Remember, only one answer is allowed, and you must be careful when filling it out, as you do not have a chance to change your answer. ”

"Alright, I'm done. Now, the timing begins. ”

As soon as it finished speaking, the four people sitting behind the desk immediately picked up the file bag on the left hand, quickly opened the red rope wrapped around the bag, and then took out the picture album inside.

On the album, countless chaotic lines converge to outline a strange and strange portrait.

On the painting, all kinds of blue-green, incandescent white, and scarlet pigments are randomly smeared on this scroll, mixed with these intricate lines.

The strange lines and the rich overlapping colors are stacked together, and just looking at them can make people feel a wave of physical discomfort, dazzling and disgusting.

"Vomit !!"

The detective sitting second on the right had this kind of physical discomfort, and he subconsciously covered his mouth? Trying to endure the dizziness on the top of your head and the churning of your stomach? I'm going to look at the album again.

But after watching it for less than two seconds, he couldn't help the nausea and nausea in his body? Retched to the side.

A faint sour smell? Ann strode up to him and closed the album in front of him? And then pour a cup of coffee from the coffee machine that is already ready next to it, and add some pure milk? After stirring well? Bring it to the candidate.

"Drink some, it will make you feel better. ”

"Thank you. ”

The applicant rubbed his head and thanked him, then took a sip of coffee before leaning back on the back of the chair weakly? A wry smile on his face.

He knows? I'm out, and this super-lucrative job has left me.

The No. 2 candidate clenched his fists a little unwillingly, wanting to fight again, but before he could say anything, he was stopped by Zhang Jiao's eyes.

He immediately remembered when he first walked into this application room? The first words spoken by this examiner.

"Gentlemen, welcome to apply for William's office? I hope you are mentally prepared in advance, the assessment criteria of our firm are not simple? It's not something that can be passed casually. ”

"Because, we only accept the elite. ”

This way? With a snap of Zhang Jiao, open the pocket watch? The pointer just stopped in the direction of twelve o'clock.

"The time has come. ”

He shouted? Ann, who was next to her, immediately walked up and turned over the album in front of the other three and covered it.

Zhang Jiao looked at the remaining three and asked.

"How many palms are there in the images in the album?"

The three people sitting in the chairs immediately recalled the patterns in the picture book they had just forcibly written down, and then they were about to put pen to paper.

It's just that when the tip of the pen in their hands just touched the paper, the picture in their minds became a little blurry, and the answer they just wanted to write felt as if it was wrong.

"Two, four, or six, or no arms at all?"

The three of them were suddenly in distress, and they didn't know how to write for a while.

Zhang Jiao didn't care about these and asked a series of questions.

"Does the image in the album have a face, and if so, is it a man or a woman?"

"What are the three types of pigments that make up the images in the album? ”

"The celestial bodies depicted in the album are the sun, the moon, or the stars. ”

"Is there any text in the album?"

Four questions were asked by Zhang Jiao one after another.

The remaining three candidates sitting in front of him were already patting their heads incessantly, and their expressions were hideous.

"Four, five?"

"Cyan?red?"

"Yes, no?"

......

These questions come together as if they have evolved into a myriad of questions.

The remaining three only felt as if their heads were about to explode, and the palms holding the pens were hesitantly raised in the air, unable to write.

Zhang Jiao stared at their painful faces, and didn't ask too many questions, but leisurely picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip gently.

Collecting earthly tablets is certainly not an easy task, and it is not certain how many difficulties, obstacles and dangers will be encountered.

So when he was ready to recruit people, the rules had already been set.

People can be selected slowly, but they must be the elite in this industry, otherwise they will only harm others and themselves, and they will cause trouble in vain.

After more than half a month of study and understanding, Zhang Jiao learned a lot of news about this world from An's mouth.

Especially the bright side mentioned in the third mile of this mission, he already understands something.

The Great Supreme God, the All-Knowing and All-Powerful Creator.

More than three billion people on the planet believe in this master.

Zhang Jiao's scalp tingled when he thought of this, he may not know much about anything else, but for Shinto, he is already a living god who has stepped into it with one foot.

In the last world, there were only more than 100,000 people in the Northland who believed in the Sanyang Society at the beginning, and they had already created such an evil god as the Sanyang Divine Venerable.

He couldn't imagine the faith of these three billion people and the power of the gods condensed.

Of course, it is not without good news.

For example, the great Lord's earthly church has split into three churches because of kinship, politics, and doctrinal issues.

Orthodoxy, Orthodoxy and Protestantism.

According to An, due to doctrinal disagreements, in the past 400 years, there have been nearly 100 large and small holy wars between the three religions.

Every time there is a holy war, several countries have been overthrown, and many dark creatures hiding in the corners have survived.

It wasn't until modern times, after the explosion of science and technology and the opening of people's wisdom, that the influence of the entire Templar declined, but it still had a huge impact, controlling the dominance of both light and darkness in the world, so that outliers like them did not dare to be too presumptuous, thus maintaining the basic balance.

But the three religions are still hostile to each other, and they all claim to be the Lord's shepherds on earth, herding scavengers for the great Creator.

Therefore, every year in December, everyone can see that the Pope of the Orthodox Church, the chief priest of the Church, and the patriarchs of the Protestant Church will all go into battle and proclaim their orthodoxy in the newspapers, television, and the Internet.

Speaking of which, it seems that December of this year is not too far away.

Just as Zhang Jiao was thinking about this, there were three sudden noises outside the door of the application room, and then he saw a blonde woman wearing a professional suit and short skirt walk in.

As soon as she walked in, she said sweetly to Zhang Jiao, "Boss, a customer has come to the door, do you have time to receive it?"

Zhang Jiao immediately came back to his senses from his thoughts, he nodded at the girl, and then said, "Okay, you go and greet the guests first, I'll come right away." ”

After finishing speaking, he immediately turned his head and said to An, "Collect the answer sheet in ten minutes, and then count the scores, and if you score more than three points, take him to the gym to test his physical fitness." ”

An Wenyan immediately gestured to him that it was okay, and Zhang Jiao then walked out of the door and walked towards his office.

In the large office, a slightly obese middle-aged man is sitting on a sofa.

He was holding a coffee cup at the moment, but his eyes were looking out the window, and from time to time he would raise his hand to look at the time, looking preoccupied.

When Zhang Jiao walked in, he didn't even notice.

It wasn't until he snorted softly and then sat down across from the middle-aged man that he reacted.

"You're Detective William?"

Zhang Jiao answered, then waved his hand to the secretary next to him, and waited until she walked out before saying, "Yes, I'm William Zhang." Welcome to William's Office, don't know what kind of help you need?"

The middle-aged man stared at him, and after his gaze stayed on Zhang Jiao's white hair for a while, he said in a hoarse voice, "I heard from my friends that Mr. William is a very capable person, I don't know if you can help me investigate a matter, of course, there may be some difficulties in this matter." ”

Zhang Jiaoyan said with a smile, "Please believe me, we are professionals when it comes to solving difficulties." ”

The man stared at him deeply, his body involuntarily leaned forward, and said gloomily, "This thing is not the matter of looking for cats and dogs, it may be dangerous." ”

During this time, William's office has completed six commissions to find pets, and each handover task takes no more than three hours, which has caused quite a stir in the pet circle in the new area.

Of course, a large part of this sensation is due to their high commission fees.

Here, after hearing the other party's slightly sharp sarcasm, Zhang Jiao's expression remained unchanged, and he still said with a smile on his face, "Maybe what you said is for us to find cats and dogs?"

The middle-aged man immediately looked at Zhang Jiao, his eyes were full of scrutiny, and his expression was aggressive.

Zhang Jiao seemed to turn a blind eye, still smiling and staring at him.

After more than ten seconds, the middle-aged man took the lead in turning his gaze and said, "I heard that your charges here are very expensive?"

Zhang Jiao nodded and replied without hesitation, "Yes, the fee of our firm should be the highest in the country." ”

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, but he said, "It's good if it's expensive, and it's good if it's expensive, don't you say?"

Zhang Jiao immediately responded, "Yes, the only disadvantage of expensive things is that they are expensive, and other than that, it has no other disadvantages." Or rather, this disadvantage is not the disadvantage of expensive things, but the disadvantage of yours. ”

The middle-aged man nodded in agreement, then took out a box of cigarettes from his arms, gestured towards him, and asked, "Is it okay?"

Zhang Jiao shook his head.

The middle-aged man was not angry, he casually put the cigarette case in his pocket, then propped his hands on the table in front of him, leaned forward, and said with a somewhat crazy face, "Help me keep an eye on a person, 24 hours a day, figure out what she is doing every day?"

"No problem. Zhang Jiao immediately replied.

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, he took out the collection, opened the album, clicked on a photo, and handed it over, "It's her." ”

Zhang Jiao looked at the smiling woman in the photo, immediately led it out, sent it to his email, and then asked, "Do you have any other information about this lady? ”

The man immediately uttered a barrage of information, not only the woman's name and age, but even where she would go every day, sounding like a husband and wife living together.

So Zhang Jiao opened his mouth and asked, "I take the liberty of asking, are you and this lady husband and wife?"

The middle-aged man was immediately silent, and his expression suddenly became a little indifferent.

Zhang Jiao didn't care about the man's sudden change in face, his fingers flicked the table, making a regular clicking sound.

"In principle, we should not ask about the customer's affairs, but if the other party is your wife, some of our actions will be changed, and please tell us as much detail as possible, please rest assured, we will not disclose customer confidentiality." ”

After saying this, Zhang Jiao got up from his seat, walked to his desk, took out a document and brought it over.

"You can take a look, this is our firm's contract, which details many matters during the commission, we promise that we will never disclose any confidential information learned of the client during the commission, this agreement is supervised by Xinya impartially, and those who violate the treaty will be compensated up to 20 times the liquidated damages. ”

The man immediately took the document, and after examining it carefully, he said with some hesitation, "Yes, she is my wife." ”

Zhang Jiao listened carefully, her fingers began to flick the table again, and in her clicky voice, she quietly asked, "Do you suspect that your wife is having an affair?"

The client shook his head and confided in a somewhat confused expression, "No, I just found that she has changed, and it has become something that makes me very scared." ”

The man looked up at Zhang Jiao, his eyes were full of fear, and he couldn't help but recall.

"You know what? I can't sleep all night now. ”
