One day later.
A day has passed since the meeting where Fang Xiu became the acting captain.
He had officially taken office at this time.
In the captain's office.
Captain Fang sat calmly behind the huge desk, the leather chair supporting his tall frame.
Golden sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating his desk and highlighting his sharply defined profile.
On his desk were rows of A4-sized printed documents bound in leather folders, and to his right was an exquisite rosewood teacup.
A beautiful woman dressed as a secretary is making tea; she wears black lipstick, high heels, and red lipstick.
As the woman moved, steaming mountain spring water poured down, landing on the tea leaves picked from the mother tree of Da Hong Pao, and the fragrant aroma of tea wafted out in all directions.
After the tea was brewed, the woman gently picked up the teacup with her slender hands, curled her red lips, and blew on the teacup, the aroma of the tea wafting out with her breath.
"Captain Fang, please have some tea," the woman said with a smile.
However, the busy Captain Fang ignored him, his long, strong fingers holding a black metal pen as he reviewed documents.
Seeing this, the woman parted her lips slightly and slurped!
He took a sip of tea.
Her beautiful eyes lit up.
"Wow! No wonder it's tea specially supplied to the chief commander, it smells so good."
As she spoke, the woman stopped pretending and sat down on the leather sofa next to her, crossing her two beautiful black legs and enjoying her tea.
Her high heels seemed rather loose; as she crossed her legs, the high heel of her foot, which was suspended in the air, detached halfway from her instep, swaying back and forth, revealing the round, petite heel encased in black.
Perhaps because the black S-shaped heel was wrapped so tightly, there was some skin showing through at the heel, and you could vaguely see the fair skin with a rosy glow.
After taking a couple of sips of tea, the woman seemed to get a little bored, so she took out her phone and started scrolling through short videos, laughing so hard she almost fell over, completely disregarding her image.
Busy with work, Chief Captain Fang couldn't help but frown.
"Xiao Chuxia, distribute this document and immediately notify everyone that from now on, reports on strange events must be written strictly in accordance with the requirements of this document."
Xiao Chuxia, who was sitting on the sofa scrolling through short videos, pouted in dissatisfaction.
"Seriously, Hugh? You're making me your secretary? And you actually have things for me to do?"
"If you say another word, your entire salary and performance bonus for this month will be deducted."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chuxia jumped up from the sofa, and because she stood up so suddenly, the high heel that had been hanging on her foot fell off.
Her feet touched the soft carpet, and she hurriedly looked around for her shoes. After putting them on, she took the documents and deliberately swayed her hips as she left the captain's office.
Fang Xiu watched her departing figure, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
If it weren't for the crucial importance of Xiao Chuxia's abilities, he would never have chosen such a lazy person as his secretary.
He chose Xiao Chuxia as his secretary primarily for protection.
If Xiao Chuxia is allowed to go out and have fun, who knows, she might die one day from lying or encountering something bizarre.
Moreover, if he were in the next point where he would die and be rewound, he might not be able to go back in time to save Xiao Chuxia.
Losing Xiao Chuxia is not important; what is important is not losing her abilities.
The previous battles were enough to demonstrate the importance of this woman's abilities.
It can be said that without the power of lies, Fang Xiu would have had a hard time winning that battle, no matter how many times he rewound.
After a while, Xiao Chuxia returned, swaying her slender waist.
"Brother Xiu, is there a mistake in the contents of this document? Your first order as captain is to have the spirit masters standardize their investigation reports on strange events?"
Did you know that when I just gave the announcement, some people were secretly complaining?
They said that spirit masters are not obedient people, and many of them do not write investigation reports on a regular basis; it is their liaisons who write them.
The chief inspector immediately demanded a standardized investigation report; even a new broom sweeps clean, and he doesn't usually do this over something so trivial.
Fang Xiu calmly took a sip of imported mineral water. He didn't drink tea because Xiao Chuxia had already had some.
He said calmly, "You don't need to pay attention to what your subordinates say. Just do as they say. Also, tell the heads of each department that if anyone fails to write an investigation report as required or falsifies information, their monthly spiritual materials will be halved the first time, completely deducted the second time, and dismissed the third time."
"Okay, okay, you're the captain, so you decide." Xiao Chuxia's tone was somewhat helpless.
Fang Xiu did not explain his intentions, even though the order seemed like a red tape to everyone else.
Why would a spirit tamer need to write an investigation report? Wouldn't it be enough to just solve the strange occurrences?
His purpose in doing this was simply to prepare for a future rollback.
There are many spirit masters at headquarters, and he can't possibly question each of them about the strange events they've experienced.
Therefore, they are required to write down the handling process, cause, and course of each strange event as clearly as possible after experiencing them.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Enter."
A staff member walked in with a serious expression.
"Captain, a strange incident has just occurred in the western district of Shangjing City. It took place in a large shopping mall, and thousands of people are currently trapped in a strange realm. Here are the details."
Thousands of people?
Xiao Chuxia was startled by this number. This was already a very serious and bizarre event, and if not handled properly, it could very likely cause social unrest.
Fang Xiu calmly took it and carefully looked through it.
Then, he silently noted down the time, place, and details of the incident.
"Send someone over to resolve this."
The staff member was stunned. He hadn't expected the captain to say such a casual remark at the end, without giving any instructions.
This made him hesitate, his expression somewhat complicated.
"Is there anything else?"
"No...it's alright now."
After saying that, the staff went to make the arrangements.
Not long after, another staff member came to report that another strange event had occurred somewhere.
As before, Fang Xiu looked at the report and then casually said, "Send someone over to resolve this."
This happened repeatedly, and each time it was the same sentence.
Because many strange creatures escaped from the last great battle, several strange incidents of injury occurred in Shangjing City alone within a single day.
Fang Xiu sat in his office all day, listening to reports all day long.
After get off work, Xiao Chuxia came over.
"Brother Hugh, you seem to have it too easy being the captain. I feel like I could be one too."
Fang Xiu glanced at her indifferently and ignored her.
He didn't explain, nor did he want to. The world only saw his ease, and how he could predict the future with a single, casual remark.
Each time, they manage to easily resolve a dangerous situation without any real trouble.
But no one knows how many times he secretly died.
