Chapter 981 Chapter 23: The thief's heart is still alive
Inside the highest level training room of the Pingjing City Special Management Bureau.
Everyone was watching the game that was about to begin.
"I haven't seen Minister Ling take action much, how strong is she?"
A member of the Special Management Bureau asked.
"She is the Furnace Soul born from the furnace Gan Jiang uses to forge swords. If she really gets serious, her strength will definitely not be underestimated."
"She's usually so cheerful, I didn't expect she would be so serious about this."
"You don't understand." A slightly older member of the Special Management Bureau sighed and said, "Back then, Mo Qiao's grandfather worked in Pingjing City, and Lingying was his deputy minister."
"Not long after, the Prometheus Project began implementation. Mo Qiao's grandfather went there as the chief engineer, but Lingying didn't want him to go. Alas, you all know what happened later. Mo Qiao's grandfather, the old minister, died in the Prometheus laboratory. Lingying was very upset about this incident."
"I know. When Mo Qiao went to Prometheus, Minister Ling got really angry and almost smashed up General Lu's office."
"Now that you put it that way, I think I understand. Minister Ling probably saw the shadow of her grandfather in Mo Qiao, so she is so persistent in wanting to protect Mo Qiao."
The discussion was interrupted by the sound of a huge hammer hitting the ground.
"Okay, one by one, stop gossiping behind people's backs." Lingying glanced at everyone, and then her eyes fell on Shao Yu who was doing warm-up exercises obediently.
At this moment, the girl had changed out of her white dress and put on a black sportswear and sweatpants.
"Master, this is my first time wearing this kind of clothing. It feels so comfortable. It's light and comfortable. It doesn't restrict my body no matter how I move."
Shao Yu sat down and bent down while looking backwards at Mo Qiao.
"You should also be careful. Lingying is not an easy opponent to deal with. Don't hurt her, and don't get hurt yourself. Do you understand?"
"clear."
Shao Yu smiled slightly, then stood up and tied her long silver hair into a ponytail behind her head.
"I never thought I could watch an exhibition match before leaving."
Elias said to Li Muhan beside him.
"Just shut up! If you keep saying these sarcastic remarks, I'll beat you up, not to mention the Special Management Bureau."
Li Muhan was still worried about one thing.
If Xia Yue suddenly came over, how would I explain it?
Originally, they were bringing Elias out without telling Xia Yue, thinking that when they went to the moon, Xia Yue would not be able to follow them. Then they would ask the people in the circus to coax Xia Yue and let her go home to accompany her child first.
As a result of this incident, the trip was delayed.
What should Xia Yue do if she reacts or feels her father's breath chasing after her?
"Li Muhan..."
A faint voice came from beside Li Muhan.
It was only then that Li Muhan discovered that there was a girl with messy hair and wearing a white coat sitting next to him.
"Minister Qu...long time no see."
Li Muhan greeted Qu Ran with a smile.
"Can I sit next to you? I, I smell terrible right now, right? I, I, I just stayed up all night for three nights and didn't shower. I'm sorry."
Qu Ran is still the same as before. Even though he works at the General Administration, his personality has not changed at all.
Moreover, there is no longer any care from the Huaxia Special Management Bureau in the General Administration.
Lin Ze is now the deputy director of the General Administration, and he probably doesn't have much time to take care of her.
Looking at her somewhat worn white coat and messy hair, Li Muhan could imagine that she was not having a good life.
"Minister Qu, I'm sorry. I said I'd come to see you, but now I don't have time. I have to leave soon."
"No, it's okay, Li Muhan, I just want to talk to everyone I used to know. Anyone is fine. Thank you for talking to me..."
"Minister Qu." Li Muhan couldn't bear it anymore.
"You should go back to the Tianhai City Special Management Bureau."
Li Muhan’s words stunned Qu Ran.
"But, but I did such a terrible thing to you... and hurt Yin Qi... There's no place for me over there anymore."
"No, no, no, Minister Qu, Xiao Yin actually never blamed you. She even often asked me about you. You are all victims of Mendarosa, so she actually has a special concern for you. If possible, Minister Qu, wait until this matter is over and come back to Tianhai City with me."
"Really... Is that okay? But I'm here and must be monitored by the enforcement team. I..."
"I will speak for you, don't worry, after all..." Li Muhan glanced at Lei Jian who was sitting in the seat in front.
"After all, I can do whatever I want."
Lei Jian obviously heard these words and his body shuddered.
Lin Ze, who was sitting next to Lei Jian, sneered.
"If he really goes to the rooftop of the World Trade Center to shoot off a plane one day, I will chop you into pieces." Lin Ze said to Lei Jian with a smile.
"No, no, not really, not really, Director Lin." Lei Jian's voice was trembling. He obviously felt that what he had said before to encourage Li Muhan was a bit too much.
But Qu Ran was very moved.
"Thank you, thank you, Li Muhan. I'm so terrible. I'm almost thirty years old, and I'm your leader...but I have to let you take care of me like this."
Li Muhan didn’t know this before, and always thought that Qu Ran was talking nonsense when he said she was almost thirty. She looked about the same age as Lin Ze, in her early twenties.
But now he understands.
Qu Ran, Yin Qi and Sasha are all the same.
They are all experimental subjects, so their bodies will no longer grow. At the same time, they have a lifespan that is almost immortal. Even if their organs fail, they can just be replaced with new ones.
"Come back safely first before making promises to others."
Elias smiled inappropriately.
"Yes, yes, Li Muhan...you must come back safely. It's okay with me, but you must be safe. I'm really sorry that I ever wanted to hurt you."
"Don't worry, Minister Qu. I promise I will bring you back to the Huaxia Special Management Bureau. You will then be the head of the Intelligence Department, and I will be your deputy. Together, you and I will surely make the Huaxia Special Management Bureau surpass the Pingjing City Special Management Bureau in terms of performance."
"Hmm..." Qu Ran wiped away his tears with emotion.
Lin Ze, who was sitting in the front, was also relieved after hearing this.
My little brother has grown up and is becoming more and more comfortable with people. I wonder if he will be like me in the future, collecting strange creatures everywhere and bringing them back to the Special Management Bureau for shelter, just like opening an encyclopedia to capture Pokémon.
"Then we'll get rid of Chang Yue, move the General Administration's capital to Tianhai City, and get ourselves a director."
But what Li Muhan said made Lin Ze almost spit out blood.
