A short while later, someone brought over three dishes and a soup, along with a large bowl of rice.

It also includes braised pork.

Lu Ning's mouth was practically watering, and he immediately started eating.

He glanced at Lin Xiao standing to the side, hesitated for a moment, and asked with a blank face, "Would you like some?"

"No, thank you." Lin Xiao shook his head.

Lu Ning smiled brightly: "Really? That's such a pity, it tasted great."

Lin Xiao's breathing quickened, and veins throbbed on his forehead.

Seeing Lu Ning's smiling face, Lin Xiao didn't feel that he had anything to regret.

He snorted coldly, walked out of the room, and closed the door.

…………

Three days later.

Wang Anming arrived at the room where Lu Ning was.

Lin Xiao stepped forward and greeted him, "Director Wang."

Wang Anming nodded and glanced at the door behind Lin Xiao: "Has anything unusual happened these past few days?"

Lin Xiao shook his head: "No, apart from eating and sleeping, he's always spacing out."

"You've been spacing out?"

Yan Feng, standing nearby, was somewhat shocked: "Won't he get bored?"

"I don't know what he's thinking either."

Lin Xiao looked at Wang Anming and asked, "Director Wang, has the investigation been completed?"

"We haven't found Lu Ning in any of the other base cities either. It's as if he just appeared out of nowhere."

Lin Xiao frowned immediately: "Then what should we do with him next?"

"The order from above is... to bring him into the bureau."

"Recruited into the bureau?!" Lin Xiao's eyes widened, somewhat incomprehensible: "But his origins are unknown!"

“Of course we know. But he’s acting too strangely, and it’s really worrying to leave him alone. And he hasn’t shown any danger, so we can’t keep him locked up indefinitely. Most importantly, he’s been here for so many days, and his mental pollution level has remained at 0%. You know what that means.”

Lin Xiao paused for a moment, then nodded slightly: "I understand."

"So, bringing him into the bureau and observing him closely might yield some answers. Perhaps he really is a human from over two thousand years ago, before the mist appeared?"

At this point, Wang Anming chuckled at his own naive idea.

But will he agree?

"Hehe, that's why I came to talk to him myself. Open the door."
