Chapter 190 Chapter 190 Evil Thoughts Become Demons
The subsequent finishing work was handed over to others, and the strongman Xiao Li carried the wheelchair and helped He Junxia get into the car.
I almost forgot, I still have to ask about Xiao Li.
After realizing that Xiao Li might be a mentally retarded person, He Junxia felt uncomfortable every time she thought about him bringing her food, as if he was bullying her.
He looked at Xie Xiaoyu, waiting for her to explain to him the ins and outs of how Sister Liu became an awakened person.
Xie Xiaoyu mentally organized his words and after a moment's thought, he said, "Some ordinary people have higher levels of inspiration and a higher probability of awakening. They are called potential awakeners."
"However, not all potential awakeners will be able to awaken. Sister Liu, please tell Qi Zheng about your own awakening experience."
Liu Fenlan said embarrassedly, "Mr. Song, some time ago you asked me to push you to the window every night to enjoy the night view. I felt very comfortable and refreshed standing next to you, and then suddenly one day I woke up."
While Liu Fenlan was speaking, Xie Xiaoyu carefully observed the change in Song Qizheng's expression when he learned the truth.
Ordinary civil servants need political review, and special departments cannot be careless when recruiting people.
Although they had investigated Song Qizhen's life in advance and found no moral corruption, and had also seen him risking his life to save others on surveillance footage, they still had to be cautious.
After all, the awakened ones after training have amazing killing power. Captain Yan, a seventh-level awakened one, can cause the earth to crack with just an arrow.
If the morally corrupt awakened ones were allowed to learn the method of cultivation, the consequences of their illegal and criminal activities would be unimaginable.
The young man in Xie Xiaoyu's eyes was stunned for a moment, then his eyebrows curved when he realized what was happening, and his tone seemed to be a little complaining: "Sister Liu, you didn't tell me earlier, so I can't congratulate you until now."
He smiled and said, "Knowing that you've become an Awakener, I finally feel a little relieved. At least I'm still somewhat useful, not just eating and drinking for free and being taken care of."
Liu Fenlan was very embarrassed: "Mr. Song, the Special Bureau has already paid me my salary. Of course I can't take your money. It's not reasonable to have the best of both worlds."
Moreover, the probability of a potential awakener becoming an awakener is greater when they have long-term contact with the awakener. Her coming to take care of Mr. Song was an opportunity she had fought for.
Mr. Song is her benefactor, who transformed herself from an ordinary caregiver into a material awakener with various welfare subsidies, high salary and stable job.
He Junxia looked at Xie Xiaoyu again: "Sister Xiaoyu, Brother Li just told me that he is also a potential awakener, so why don't you ask him to stay after delivering the meal.
Anyway, I live in a single room, so one more person or one less person won't make any difference. Maybe Brother Li can also awaken."
If my guess was correct, there should be benefits for potential awakeners and awakened people to stay together for a long time. Otherwise, it couldn't be such a coincidence that Liu Fenlan and Xiao Li, who were sent by the Special Bureau, were both potential awakeners.
He Junxia even suspected that Xie Xiaoyu was also a potential awakener.
However, the reason why Liu Fenlanhe was able to awaken successfully was most likely closely related to the moonlight energy condensed during his practice at night.
After all, he is not a true awakener.
Of course, there is no need to tell others this, he doesn't want to be the most special one in the crowd.
Moreover, He Junxia could feel that the laws of this small world somewhat repelled the profound power—although different small worlds had the same origin, they were not on the same path after all.
"Forget about Xiao Li. He has other work to do. It would be better to avoid causing you trouble and disturbing your rest."
Xie Xiaoyu unexpectedly rejected He Junxia's proposal. She looked at the back of the head in the passenger seat and sighed softly.
She had her own selfish motives in letting Xiu De be the food delivery man so that he could have brief contact with Song Qi every day. But when the opportunity to awaken was presented to her, she couldn't help but hesitate.
Because she couldn't guarantee that becoming an awakened person would be a good thing for Li Xiu De.
If it weren't for his high level of inspiration and the higher probability of him being contaminated by demonic energy than an ordinary person, she would even just hope that he could be a happy ordinary person under the protection of the Special Management Bureau.
Xie Xiaoyu said, "Qi Zheng, you should have noticed that Xiao Li is a bit silly."
He Junxia smiled and said, "Little Li is pure and genuine. There's no pressure getting along with him."
Xie Xiaoyu's smile was tinged with bitterness. "His father died in the demonic outburst twenty-five years ago. His mother was also seriously injured and passed away after giving birth to him."
"He was disturbed by evil spirits in the womb, so he has a bit of a brain problem. It's fine for him to be an ordinary person."
He Junxia didn't expect that Xiao Li had such a background, and couldn't help but respect his parents.
However, Xie Xiaoyu's words also revealed an important piece of information - the Special Bureau was not established in recent years, and it has been at least twenty-five years since the first awakener appeared.
He Junxia quickly searched the wisher's memory for the vicious incident that happened twenty-five years ago. The explosion of demonic energy was definitely not a minor fight like the one between the demon snake and the bronze man.
Found it!
Every July 3rd, the nation mourns for the lives lost in the earthquake in City X, the tsunami in City C, and the fire in City H. Those horrific natural disasters claimed millions of lives.
All these terrible natural disasters occurred on July 3rd, 25 years ago, a day also known as Hell Day.
He Junxia's heart suddenly became alarmed.
Others didn't know the situation, but he knew it very clearly - when he first accepted the mission information, the Space-Time Administration sent a message reminding him that this mission world was being promoted to A-level.
(PS: The Space-Time Administration's assessment of mission levels is closely related to the level of the mission world itself.)
He Junxia initially thought that it was caused by the appearance of a monster, but now after listening to Xie Xiaoyu's words, he seriously suspected that it was related to the explosion of demonic energy.
Who can guarantee that the demonic energy explosion that happened 25 years ago will not happen again?
He Junxia asked doubtfully, "Sister Xiaoyu, does a demonic energy explosion refer to the sudden appearance of a large amount of demonic energy?"
Xie Xiaoyu shook her head slightly. "I can't tell you. This is the rule. When you join the Special Branch for training, the instructor will explain that period of history."
He Junxia nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
He looked out the window. A clown was performing acrobatics in the square, entertaining some children. The clown's mouth was wide open, and the red paint on the sides of his mouth had been pulled all the way to his ears.
The blood-red paint is very realistic, and it looks like the corner of the clown's mouth has been deeply cut with a knife, with bright red blood flowing out.
Weird with a hint of madness.
Several children stared at the scene with their mouths wide open, looking up blankly. Suddenly, one of the clown's eyes fell out of its socket, and the black and white eyeball rolled to their feet.
The next second, deafening cries broke out in the square, and several children ran away in panic.
The clown who scared them didn't care about the children's reaction. With only one eye left on his face, he stared straight at the driveway, at the black car that had already driven a long distance away, with a bright and weird smile on his face.
He Junxia frowned.
This clown gave him a very bad feeling, and he always trusted his sixth sense.
He Junxia told Xie Xiaoyu about this and hoped that she would ask someone to investigate the clown.
"Okay, I'll send a message to the Information Department and ask them to check it out."
The fact that Song Qizhen was able to help Liu Fenlan awaken shows that his inspiration after awakening is stronger than most ordinary awakeners, and his sixth sense is more credible.
Besides, it won't hurt to check it out. If there really is something wrong with the clown, it would be a good thing to discover it in advance.
…
Half an hour later
The vehicle slowly drove into an inconspicuous courtyard. The exterior of the courtyard was very ordinary and looked like a normal residential building.
However, the two men standing guard at the door had their hands pressed against their trouser seams, their heads held high and their eyes sharp. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell they were from the army.
Xiao Li lifted He Junxia out of the car. He was very strong and the wheelchair slowly landed on the ground without making any obvious sound.
"Thank you, Brother Li."
He Junxia quietly looked at this quiet place in the bustling city as if she were looking at her future workplace.
As the saying goes, small seclusion is in the wild, medium seclusion is in the city, and great seclusion is in the court. The location of the special bureau is not bad, and the scenery in the yard is very beautiful.
What comes into view is a straight row of tree-lined avenues. The breeze blows, the osmanthus trees on both sides rustle, and the pale yellow stamens on the branches dance gracefully, bringing a burst of fragrance.
The bushes on both sides of the avenue are full of delicate hibiscus, fresh and elegant hydrangeas and charming but not gaudy purple platycodons, and they are obviously carefully cared for.
He Junxia took a deep breath, and the scent of osmanthus filled his nostrils. The bad mood after meeting the strange clown gradually dissipated.
Staying in the ward every day will make you feel moldy.
Xie Xiaoyu felt a surge of pride as she watched the young man's expression gradually relax. As the head of the coordination department overseeing logistics, the landscape of the courtyard was the product of her hard work.
Xie Xiaoyu smiled and said, "There's a small lake behind this building. Next to the lake is a small zoo with peacocks, alpacas, rabbits, kittens, puppies and other animals. We can go for a walk there after dinner."
"Um."
The young man's eyes lit up slightly, showing that he was very interested in this proposal.
They walked through the two old buildings in front and arrived at the cafeteria on the first floor. The cafeteria was not big, only about a hundred square meters, but it was decorated with great charm.
The main color is beige, with some warm yellow and light gray as embellishments, giving people a very comfortable and cozy feeling. It is not like an institutional cafeteria, but more like a private restaurant.
However, He Junxia's attention was still on the tempting aromas in the air. Just smelling them was enough to whet one's appetite.
Xiao Li pushed He Junxia around the self-service counter. When he came out, he had several more plates in his hands, filled with various dishes.
There are sweet and sour pork tenderloin, sweet and sour pork, sweet and sour pork, as well as spicy Kung Pao chicken, stir-fried pork with peppers, and mouth-watering chicken. There are also sour and spicy, sour and sweet, sweet and spicy...
There are dozens of dishes, and although they don’t use expensive ingredients, they are all classic dishes from various cuisines.
He Junxia savored the rice and dishes slowly, and her appetite was satisfied as never before.
However, it seemed as if God couldn't stand his leisurely appearance. Before everyone finished their meal and went for a stroll around the lake and zoo behind, Xie Xiaoyu's face suddenly changed when he saw the message pop up on his mobile phone.
"I'm so sorry. I said I'd take you for a walk after dinner, but something important suddenly happened and I need to go."
He Juanxia looked at her anxious expression and guessed, "Is there something wrong with that clown?"
Xie Xiaoyu paused and nodded slightly.
