"Then prepare an office for me, just in time to display my banners. Those are all proof of the work I've done for you."

Xu Feng: "??" Don't be ridiculous! You're not a detective and you want your own office!

Having obtained more information, Xu Feng hung up the phone, feeling somewhat tired, and rubbed his forehead.

In truth, if it weren't for Qi Jiu's identity as an assassin, he probably would have already poached her from Interpol. After all, people with both brains and fighting skills like that are rare. But having that identity is definitely a disadvantage.

Even if the missions she carried out and the people she killed were all wanted criminals who had never done anything good, it still wouldn't be legal.

"President?"

Seeing the chairman lost in thought beside him, Xu Feng couldn't help but softly call out, "What are you thinking about? You seem so engrossed in your thoughts?"

The president of Interpol is a Westerner, and Westerners have very distinctive features. It was this president who made him make that call today, perhaps because he was afraid of getting into trouble with the guy on the other end?

You wouldn't believe it, but Qi Jiu has never been kind with her mouth unless it's her superior. She even argued with the president of Interpol.

Their chairman raised his hand to touch his chin, looking down at something, and only spoke quietly after hearing Xu Feng's words.

"I'm thinking about how to make an exception and let Number Nine in..."

Xu Feng: "..." This world has gone mad! These days, even the president of Interpol is trying to poach talent from assassin organizations!

"What Number Nine just said..."

"Get ready! Get ready! Even if she's not a detective, she's helped our police station so much, she deserves this office. It's just an office, Interpol can afford it."

Xu Feng: "..."

Very well, their director has lost himself in the repeated missions of Number Nine.

When Qi Jiu returned after hanging up the phone, she looked at the relaxed atmosphere in the office and a smile appeared on her lips.

It could be due to a change in atmosphere, or it could be because the 'Zero' organization finally has a lead.

"So happy?"

Qi Silin looked at the girl standing at the door with a smile on her face, went up to her, took her hand, and led her into the office.

Qi Jiu nodded. "We have a clue."

Chinese Design Association.

Qi Jiu didn't expect that she would come to this place again after the design competition was over. The place was the same as before, nothing had changed, except that the people in front of her seemed a little abnormal.

Yuan Ye looked at the two people sitting and standing in front of him with a grin.

"Teacher G, what do you think of our China Design Association?" As soon as the question was asked, Vice President Pan Raoguang's eyes lit up with anticipation. He quickly brought over the freshly brewed coffee.

The girl looked around and nodded. "It's fine."

"So, are you interested in...?"

"No."

Yuan Ye: "..." He hadn't finished speaking yet...

Shi Yu found Yuan Ye's speechless expression amusing. "Guild Master, you should give up on that idea. This girl doesn't even want to join an international guild, let alone a national one. It seems she has no intention of joining any guild at the moment."

As he spoke, he took out his phone and placed it in front of Yuan Ye.

"Look, the International Guild has sent another invitation."

Yuan Ye stared at the long progress bar above, a slight twitch appearing at the corner of his mouth. "How many times has Teacher G refused?"

Looking at the scroll bar next to me, it seems that this international guild has sent out more than one invitation.

Shi Yu pursed her lips, took back her phone and looked at it. "It must have been at least dozens of times. They're really persistent."

Yuan Ye: "..." So, you guys are in Versailles?

"President, you wanted to see me?"

Suddenly, a cold voice came from the doorway. Looking up, she saw Tong Lu's cold face. Unlike before, she looked at Qi Jiu with some surprise on her face.

His gaze was somewhat unfocused, as if he hadn't expected her to come.

She won first place in the design competition, and it seems the two of them haven't seen each other since. After all, they both had their own things to do.

Qi Jiu looked at Tong Lu at the door and nodded.

"Teacher G, I have a favor to ask."

The girl raised an eyebrow. "Please speak."

As he spoke, Yuan seemed a little embarrassed, but looking at Tong Lu, he seemed to have mustered up his courage.

"Although you are not a member of the China Design Guild, could you let Tong Lu learn from you? I know this idea is offensive, but I think this child has a bright future. I feel that Tong Lu's potential for progress in our guild is not as great as it is under your guidance."

Yuan Ye's eyes held a hint of anticipation, which surprised not only Qi Jiu but also Tong Lu herself.

She was resting in her office when she was suddenly called here. She never expected that the chairman had called her here because of this matter.

Qi Jiu pursed her lips, as if she was thinking. Seeing this, the people around her did not dare to say anything, for fear of making her impatient at this crucial moment.

In fact, she already knew she had a bright future when she first saw the design draft. During that competition, she revised the design draft that Tong Lu had given her and found that she grasped it very quickly. This was not hard work, but talent.

She always manages to find things that others miss, which is quite remarkable.

But she is now, and even for a long time to come, living in China, and is very busy...

"But I'll be living in China for a long time to come, and I have a lot of things to take care of. I might not have time to do anything else, so..."

"So, it's not allowed?"

Yuan was somewhat disappointed, as was Tong Lu beside him.

Although she hadn't initially expected to learn from G, now that there was hope, she was naturally looking forward to it. G was different from other designers; every piece he created was a masterpiece, and the people he connected with internationally were people that ordinary people couldn't possibly encounter.

"No, I haven't finished speaking. What I mean is, can you accept her going abroad?"

"ah?"

Yuan was a little taken aback, as were the others. Tong Lu's gaze remained fixed on Qi Jiu, never wavering. From initial disappointment to current delight.

The girl glanced back at Shiyu, who was still somewhat bewildered, and smiled.

“I have to study and manage the company in China, so naturally I don’t have time. But just because I don’t have time doesn’t mean my assistant doesn’t have time.”

Shigure: "???" What is that?

Qi Jiu looked at Shi Yu's bewildered face and inexplicably smiled happily.

"Although Shiyu is my assistant, he is also a top ten finalist in an international design competition. You should know that he has been here for so long, right?"

Tong Lu thought Qi Jiu didn't like her, but she didn't expect this twist. She glanced at Shi Yu, her eyes filled with inexplicable emotions.
