Chapter 542 Needs Cleaning Up
"Our work here is not complicated. Captain Li, come here and I will introduce it to you."
Mo Zaiti is the head of this office. His appearance and demeanor give people a sense of friendliness and professionalism.
Because this place is disguised as a community service center, people usually call him Director Mo.
This is not just a title, it is the heart and soul of this team.
When Li Muhan came, he heard from Cen Lin that the person in charge of maintaining public security in Zhengdong Street was also a member of the combat team before. After he got older and had a family, he retired to the second line and was responsible for some daily trivial matters.
Li Muhan followed the local customs and called him Director Mo.
Now he brought his three problem children to Director Mo's office.
The office looked no different from an ordinary community director's office, but when they followed Mo Zaiti through the screen, the scene before them brightened their eyes.
The back half of the office hides a high-tech world, in stark contrast to the plainness of the front half.
Especially the high-tech projection equipment, which occupied the entire back wall. Various data and images flowed on the screen, showing the office's secret missions and ongoing operations.
Next to the equipment was a row of sophisticated control consoles covered with buttons and switches, and several staff members were working, concentrating on monitoring the information on the screen.
Mo Zaiti led Li Muhan, Lu Yunxue and others to the control console and began to introduce the office's work flow and their responsibilities in detail.
His words revealed his love for the job and his trust in the team.
“So high-tech.”
Li Muhan couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Lao Mo chuckled twice, then sighed and said, "It's not as good as before now. Now we have to spend manpower to observe this data."
"Oh? Was it more high-tech in the past?"
Li Muhan said jokingly.
Unexpectedly, Lao Mo's expression became more complicated.
"Well, in the past, every street location had a dedicated detector. Once an unusual creature passed by, we would get the data. The backend would immediately analyze its behavior and identify any that might endanger ordinary people and report them. This greatly saved manpower and material resources."
Hearing words like logical analysis, Li Muhan guessed something. He did not respond but waited for Lao Mo to continue.
"Captain Li, you know how severe the impact of the Prometheus incident was. Our system happens to rely on Prometheus's computing power... When the Black Light incident broke out, two of my team members were compiling that month's data, and then... they died in this system affected by Prometheus."
After hearing Lao Mo's words, some staff members in the room also showed expressions of regret.
An older woman added with a wry smile, "Those two...were supposed to be getting married next month...sigh..."
Li Muhan nodded silently.
He knew that the damage caused by the Black Light incident was far-reaching and far more than what he had seen.
And in the future that I worked so hard to create, many people were squeezed out on the road ahead.
"Captain Li, you've done a great job. Please don't blame yourself."
The elderly Lao Mo saw the sadness in Li Muhan's eyes.
He patted Li Muhan's shoulder gently and then said.
"Our work here is divided into several categories. The data analysts you see here are one of them. They are responsible for extracting information about sightings of anomalies or detected abnormal data, analyzing it, and ultimately distributing it to the action teams. The team leaders will then make reasonable arrangements and go out on field missions."
"The other useful type is daily patrols. Captain Li, which type do you think is most suitable for these children to do?"
Director Mo respects Li Muhan's opinion very much.
But Li Muhan knew that this was a kind of respect, but it was definitely not a reason for him to arbitrarily overstep his bounds.
So he smiled and said to Director Mo: "You make the arrangements, Director Mo. Including me, the four of us will listen to you."
"How can this be? And you shouldn't be included. You are here to guide the work."
"I'm not in charge of anything. I'm a complete novice myself. Just rest assured and take care of everything."
In the end, Director Mo was still a little nervous. This middle-aged man was very meticulous in his work and insisted that Li Muhan ask his superiors for approval before he agreed to make arrangements on behalf of Li Muhan.
So Li Muhan called Qu Ran, and after getting his permission, Director Mo smiled and said, "Captain Li really is... worthy of being the captain of the Hero Squad."
"Ouch, hero team, tsk tsk."
Zhou Yichen had already become impatient with what he was saying. He was now sitting on a chair, with his legs crossed, playing with the dagger he had brought with him.
Finally, under Director Mo's arrangement, the four people were assigned to the same group.
Originally, Lao Mo wanted both Lu Yunxue and Chen Yiming to stay here to collect data, but Lu Yunxue firmly opposed it. Seeing that no one wanted to stay and do clerical work, Chen Yiming also tremblingly expressed that she wanted to join everyone.
Although Zhou Yichen laughed at him, he still made the decision in the end.
"Captain Li, you will be responsible for patrolling the area around Zhengdong Street and Binhai Park. If there are any special circumstances, I will contact you via the communicator. By the way, since this is your first time on patrol, I will assign someone to accompany you. Is that okay with you?"
"Of course, Director Mo, please make the arrangements."
After getting Li Muhan's permission, Director Mo walked out of his office and shouted to a corner of the service hall: "Chen Xiaoyu! Come here!"
In a moment, there was a commotion in the corner, and then a girl in a special management bureau suit raised her head from a pile of documents.
"I, I'll be right there! Director Mo!"
Afterwards, the girl jogged while tidying up her hair and clothes. When she came in front of the few people, there were still a few strands of hair scattered in front of her forehead in a messy manner.
"Zhengdong Subdistrict Security Team, Team 3 member, Shen Xiaoyu reports!"
The girl stopped and saluted Director Mo.
"Yeah." Lao Mo nodded, then looked at Li Muhan and said, "You will go on patrol with Captain Li today. Remember, don't cause any trouble for Captain Li."
"You're too kind, Director Mo." Li Muhan smiled, and then looked at Shen Xiaoyu.
"My name is Li Muhan, and I'm the captain of the seventh team of the Special Management Bureau of our headquarters." He observed Shen Xiaoyu and found that this girl should be a few years older than him, so he changed his tone and shouted, "Sister Shen, I'll leave it to you today."
Shen Xiaoyu blushed as soon as she saw Li Muhan, and then immediately saluted Li Muhan.
"Yes! Yes! I, I will definitely live up to everyone's expectations! I will definitely help Captain Li complete the mission brilliantly!"
Zhou Yichen couldn't help laughing in the back, and then he nudged Lu Yunxue with his elbow: "Is this woman reliable? Why do I feel like her brain is a little underdeveloped?"
"...You should have some basic manners."
Lu Yunxue gave him a cold look and then moved aside.
Zhou Yichen felt bored and smacked his lips. Then he looked at Li Muhan and said, "Boss, this sister blushed when she saw you. Did you do something to her before?"
As soon as he said this, Shen Xiaoyu's face turned redder and her body trembled slightly.
"No! No! I've never met Captain Li! But, but I know Captain Li's deeds! From the first day Captain Li joined the Special Management Bureau, and from the mission that killed the Zhan Kingdom and the former captain of Team 7, Huo Tian, I've always been following Captain Li! I, I just respect Captain Li very much!"
When Lu Yunxue heard the name Huo Tian, a complicated look appeared in her eyes.
Li Muhan also felt a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Lao Mo noticed something was wrong and immediately stopped Shen Xiaoyu from speaking.
"Shen Xiaoyu! Stop talking nonsense! When you're ready, take Captain Li and the others to drive. By the way, you will be the one driving, and all actions will be subject to Captain Li's instructions."
"Yes! Understood!"
Shen Xiaoyu stood up straight again. It seemed that this girl’s character was a little too serious.
Li Muhan couldn't help but think so, and at the same time observed Lu Yunxue, and found that the complicated look in the other's eyes had slowly disappeared, so he gave Lu Yunxue a point in his heart.
Her ability to withstand pressure and endure mentally should also be considered very strong.
If you train well, it shouldn't be difficult to pass the trial.
Five minutes later, Li Muhan and others followed Shen Xiaoyu to the garage, but Shen Xiaoyu stood in front of the garage, hesitant.
"What's wrong?" Li Muhan asked with some confusion.
"Can you please... wait for me for two minutes, Captain Li..."
"Of course." Li Muhan nodded with a smile.
"Thank you very much!" Shen Xiaoyu bowed to Li Muhan again, then quickly ran towards a car in the parking lot.
This car is not a luxury car, but it is perfectly suitable for transportation.
Li Muhan was moved by the scene and remembered his beloved car that died tragically at the hands of Subject Zero.
Five minutes later, Shen Xiaoyu came back panting. She seemed to have been packing something in the car.
It seems that he felt a little embarrassed because the car was too messy.
But it’s nothing. After all, if you live alone and use a car alone, it is normal for many people to have the car become a mobile suitcase.
"Okay, that's fine, Captain Li."
Shen Xiaoyu said.
"Okay, let's go."
Li Muhan sat in the passenger seat, Zhou Yichen sat in the middle of the back row, and the two girls sat on both sides.
Just as they were about to set off, Zhou Yichen suddenly noticed something.
He lowered his head, bent down slightly, and took out something from under the back seat cushion...it seemed to be a postcard.
"...What the hell is this?"
Zhou Yichen has no sense of boundaries and is simply the most impolite person.
He began to look at the postcards as if no one was around.
Through the rearview mirror, Shen Xiaoyu suddenly discovered this scene.
She slammed on the brakes.
"Please!! Please don't look!! Please don't look!!"
Her cheeks flushed and she turned around and yelled at Zhou Yichen.
Zhou Yichen took the postcard, looked at Shen Xiaoyu, and finally a strange smile appeared on his face.
"I want to see it."
Then when he saw the contents of the postcard clearly, he couldn't help but say "Oh my god".
"Boss!! This is your fucking photo!" Zhou Yichen shouted at Li Muhan holding the postcard.
"Ah? My photo?"
Li Muhan also turned back in confusion, and sure enough, he saw that the postcard contained a photo of himself when he was on a mission before, and there were words on the back of the postcard.
"Li Muhan, he looks very handsome today. When can I talk to him?"
Zhou Yichen read out the contents directly, and then slapped his thigh and laughed.
"Hahahahaha, holy shit! Holy shit! Boss! This is your fan! This sister is your fan!"
"Wow..."
Shen Xiaoyu held the steering wheel tightly with both hands, her cheeks flushed, and tears were about to fall.
"I'll look for it again!! I'll look for it again!"
Zhou Yichen began to rummage through the back seat of the car as if he had discovered treasure, and soon he found some postcards.
Without exception, all of them were photos of Li Muhan.
"...Captain Li was on a mission to capture aliens on Zhengdong Street today. I saw him from afar, and he seemed to glance at me. Ah! My eyes met Captain Li's! My heart is beating so fast..."
"Today is my birthday. I'm 23 years old. Captain Li is still very young. He probably wouldn't even look at an ordinary girl like me... I heard that Captain Li's girlfriend is a vampire, a very beautiful one... I really hope Captain Li can say happy birthday to me."
"...Today, it suddenly rained heavily, and the postcards in my pocket got soaked. It was so painful! They were treasured items I took with me every day... It was so painful..."
When Zhou Yichen kept reading out the contents of the postcard in a sarcastic tone, Shen Xiaoyu's tears had already burst out, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Until there was a crisp sound.
Li Muhan's eyes were as cold as ice. After slapping Zhou Yichen, he said to Lu Yunxue.
"You get off first."
"Um."
Lu Yunxue opened the car door and got out. Before Zhou Yichen knew what was happening, Li Muhan came to the car door in an instant, grabbed his collar and threw him out.
