How an Office Drone Conquers the Strongest Boss

Shen Run is an office drone.

Fresh out of college, she joined an outsourcing company, working like a beast of burden: two days off a month, phone on 24/7, delayed wages a common occurrence, a...

Chen Run's expression immediately grew tense. Yan Xunqing, a master of negotiation, assessed her expression and added, "But this is within Chinese territory after all. We will do our utmost to protect the safety of our citizens. And since you're a psychic yourself, there's no need to be too nervous."

He put his hands in his pockets and stood up. "Okay, now let's test your new ability."

Chen Run was still thinking about what instrument to use to test her superpowers, but she didn't expect Yan Xunqing to take her directly to the detention room on the underground floor, where seven or eight superpower users who were caught last night were detained.

When seven or eight people with special abilities saw him, they huddled together and shivered like quails.

He leaned against the iron railing, his hands in his pockets, and said in a cold and casual tone: "Okay, let's get started."

Chen Run was stunned for a moment before realizing what he meant by 'start': "Directly, test it directly on humans? Isn't that illegal?"

"Sorry, Miss Shen, I forgot to tell you one thing. The rules for people with special abilities are different from those for ordinary people. People with special abilities who break the law have no human rights."

Yan Xunqing gave her a deep look, a warning in his eyes, but his expression was calm. "Also, every time the patrol team goes out, a certain amount of casualties is allowed. Last night's casualty rate didn't meet the standard. You can experiment on them as much as you want. I will report the casualties according to the mission."

Seeing Chen Run's eyes widen, he said, "You don't have to think this is cruel. In the early days of the superpower outbreak, many superpowered people in China joined forces to organize a riot, intending to gain dominance and enslave ordinary people. It took many sacrifices to quell the rebellion. Within a certain range, some rules are tacitly accepted by everyone."

He released an S-level pressure and said in a deep voice, "Now, in front of me, release your supernatural power."

Shen Run finally understood that the important thing was not the 'test', but to let him understand his own abilities clearly in front of him.

This man looks quite gentle, but he does things in a way that is unscrupulous. He even uses living people to test their supernatural powers as soon as he says so, and his words are full of threats. It is really suffocating to talk to him.

Oh, forget it. Since ancient times, the people have never fought against the officials. How can a common citizen like her beat an official?

She blurted out, "Yes, sir, I will obey your orders."

Yan Xunqing: "..." He took a breath to calm himself down and pointed to the person on the far left: "Let's start with him. He's a C-level psychic, and his psychic ability is a relatively ordinary power type."

Chen Run was just an ordinary person before, and had never even heard of superpowers, but now, as if by instinct, she stood outside the iron railings and raised her hand to make a grasping gesture.

An invisible big hand grabbed the C-level mutant, and a halo was drawn out from him and entered Shen Run's body. He was blank for a moment, and suddenly it was as if his spine was pulled, and he collapsed on the seat.

On the contrary, Chen Run felt her body was full and powerful. She clenched her fist and punched the wall behind her, leaving spider-web-like cracks in the snow-white wall.

"Very good, you have obtained all the superpowers of a C-level superpower user. He has now completely become an ordinary person." Yan Xunqing glanced at his watch: "It took five seconds."

He didn't give Shen Run time to ask questions, and pointed to the next person: "Try his, he is a D-level psychic, his ability is theft."

Chen Run tried to grab it again and successfully stole the work badge on Yan Xunqing's chest. She was gradually changing from nervousness to excitement and asked, "Master, which one should I grab next?"

Yan Xunqing: "...Come with me." He took Shen Run to a separate detention room: "Just now you were tested on C-level who were lower than you. Now try the combat system of the same level as you."

Chen Run took a look inside, oh wow, it was an acquaintance, Ruan San who almost killed her!

Ruan San looked like he had been beaten badly, his face was bruised and swollen, and one of his arms was broken off. When he saw Chen Run, his face twisted slightly: "Bitch, it's all your fault, I..."

When enemies meet, they are extremely jealous of each other. This time, without waiting for Yan Xunqing to speak, Chen Run began to try to plunder, but she failed the first time. She tried three or four times before she plundered Ruan San's lightning ability.

Under Ruan San's horrified gaze, a ball of crackling lightning emerged from her hand: "How do I try this?"

Yan Xunqing casually pointed at Ruan San and said, "Go back to where you came from."

Chen Run grinned grimly, gathered a ball of lightning and hit Ruan San. For a moment, the whole detention room was filled with Ruan San's screams. She also tried to rub the lightning into Chidori Raikiri and spiral patterns to experiment on Ruan San. It was also thanks to the B-level psychic's excellent physical fitness. If it were an ordinary person, he would have died by now.

Although the abilities of B-level psychics are more complicated, she had mastered Ruan San's abilities after practicing five or six times. She tried it more than a dozen times purely because electric people are so fun, hahahahahaha.

She even rubbed the electric light in her hand into the shape of a chidori, and pointed it at Ruan San's face in a classic anime pose, and said excitedly: "Master Qingtian, please take a picture for me."

Yan Xunqing: "...That's enough, stop making trouble."

He made an assessment: "For a psychic of the same level, your chances of successfully seizing the power are low, and the power you can exert is about 60% to 80%." He asked Shen Run to continue trying to seize the powers of others, but he failed. He nodded slightly: "It seems that you have reached the upper limit, at least for a certain period of time. You can keep an eye on it and see when you can continue to seize the powers of others."

Shen Run thought for a moment and said, "You already know everything you need to know. Can you let me go?"

"Okay, but before you leave, I need you to answer a question." Yan Xunqing looked her in the eye, probing her, "Ruan San said he severely injured you, but when we found you, not only were there no wounds on your body, but you actually gained supernatural powers. You even had a men's jacket on you. What happened during that time?"

Of course, he also interrogated Ruan San and other people with special abilities, but everyone seemed to have collectively lost their memory and could not say anything that happened during that period.

In an instant, a figure flashed through Shen Run's mind, but she immediately shook her head: "I have no impression."

This answer was within expectations. Yan Xunqing hummed and said, "Okay, you can go now."

At the moment, Chen Run is fine, and his doubts have been alleviated a lot.

He pondered for a moment, looked away uncomfortably, and coughed lightly: "Do you want to add WeChat?"

Seeing Chen Run's puzzled expression, he feigned calmness and explained, "The patrol team is short of staff and will start recruiting non-staff next month. Your abilities are very suitable."

Chen Run's eyes lit up: "Can I become a regular employee?"

If she could eat this bowl of government food, she would have to be given a three-day banquet when she returns to her hometown. At that time, she would occupy the main table by herself, and all the aunts and uncles who looked down on her when she was a child would stand behind and serve her!

Yan Xunqing: "...If you want to become a regular employee, you still have to pass the civil service exam. You can't avoid the practical test and the essay test. If you fail, you can only work as a non-staff employee for now." He added: "The only difference from the national exam is that the interview test is about special abilities."

Chen Run: “…” Forget it, it’s a non-staff job, let’s just do it first.

She originally thought that Yan Xunqing was not easy to get along with, but she didn't expect that he not only took the initiative to add her on WeChat to provide her with a job opportunity, but also sent the company bus to take her home.

After arriving at the rental house, she found that Chi Shuangliu had not returned yet. Thinking of the figure she saw at the moment of death last night, she called Chi Shuangliu several times, but the prompt tone was always that the phone was turned off.

She couldn't find anyone and was almost exhausted, so she changed into an old man's vest and shorts that cost fifteen yuan, lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.

......

If Monica had known that Chi Shuangliu was actually an intelligent creature, she would not have dared to plot against him and Shen Run even if she had a hundred courages - everyone involved in this matter was caught or killed. She was terrified, and almost as soon as Chi Shuangliu appeared in front of her, she couldn't wait to slide down to her knees and beg for peace.

She prostrated herself on the carpet, sobbing, "I beg for your forgiveness. From now on, I am willing to serve you wholeheartedly, just like a believer serves a god. You can do anything to me, I just ask for a little tolerance and mercy..."

As she spoke, she raised her face, her pure blue eyes filled with tears.

She stretched out her slender white fingers and humbly pulled at Chi Shuangliu's trouser leg.

Monica was incredibly beautiful, even in Hollywood she would be considered one of the most beautiful women. Cao Xun, watching from the side, couldn't help but daze for a moment. In a trance, he seemed to recall his first love and the restless and beautiful adolescence. His mind was filled with a sour and painful feeling, and he couldn't help but plead, "Master, she didn't mean it..."

Chi Shuangliu took a step back and avoided her hand.

He ignored Cao Xun's pleas and showed a slightly mocking expression: "Do you think you are charming?"

Monica's pupils shrank slightly - she was an A-level psychic, her ability was charm, and the range of her charm was...all opposite sexes.

She has never failed in her charm, no matter if it is an emotionally deficient person, a homosexual, or even her elder brothers who are related by blood. After this skill was upgraded, its charm range even transcends races, as long as it is a male, even animals and plants will do.

What is the origin of this 001?

Isn't he a male? Is he a female?

She was about to speak, but suddenly screamed in pain, covered her heart and fell down - soon, a black eye appeared on her arm, and the eye seemed to have life and blinked rapidly.

Once she developed malicious intent and took the initiative to attack, she would be cursed. From now on, she would have no choice but to be driven and enslaved by him. Chi Shuangliu didn't even look at her, but turned and left without any reluctance.

Cao Xun had also come back to his senses at this moment, and explained somewhat awkwardly: "I'm sorry, Master, I was accidentally bewitched by her just now, so I opened my mouth to plead for her. Please punish me..."

"It has nothing to do with you. Her abilities are indeed very powerful and deceptive. Even S-rank and above would find it difficult to escape her influence. If she can continue to upgrade, even gods might be bewitched by her."

Chi Shuangliu explained casually.

Cao Xun was surprised: "Then you..."

"I'm different from you..." Chi Shuangliu curled his lips playfully: "I don't have any desire for humans."
