"Do you like Huang Shaoxing?"
Xu Shiqing: “……?”
It took him a while to figure out why he asked that.
"I didn't!" Xu Shiqing stood up suddenly, his face flushed, not knowing whether it was from anger or heat: "Xie Jingyi, are you not finished writing your report, so you have nothing to do and think about these messed up things?!"
021 I want to eat some popcorn.
It was unclear whether Xie Jingyi had listened or not, and he said faintly, "So you still remember that I'm your suitor... I thought you had forgotten, Xu Shiqing."
“…”
Xu Shiqing gritted his teeth: "Xie Jingyi, you're such a jealous person. If you think this kind of thing is unacceptable, then do I have to report to you every time I eat in the future?"
021 curled his lips and said, "That's quite reasonable, but if you, Xu Shiqing, didn't indulge him, would Xie Jingyi dare to do this?"
Anyone who comes here can solve everything by saying "You have no status and no position, so why do you care about yourself?"
Xie Jingyi also knew that he both liked and hated Xu Shiqing very much.
"What do you want me to do?" he asked. "I'm just jealous of him. I like you, so I accept the fact that you can't respond to me for the time being, but I'm still jealous of him."
What a good move of retreating to advance, pitiful as if he wasn't setting a trap for Xu Shiqing. 021 sighed inwardly at the cruelty of human hearts, then looked at Xu Shiqing and suddenly felt a bit of a heart attack.
"Are you angry?" Xie Jingyi asked, "Do you hate me for doing this?"
Xu Shiqing remained silent, but this was already an answer.
He still looked like someone who was easy to see through, but in fact his inner soul was not revealed at all.
Everyone in the Abnormal Management Bureau said Captain Xu was someone to be admired from afar, not touched, cold and unapproachable, as heartless as a celestial being. But those who knew him well knew that Xu Shiqing was a very lovable person in his daily life. He would clean the leaves of the office plants when he couldn't finish a report, and he would get angry when witnesses were too outrageous during investigations.
Everyone thought that this was all Xu Shiqing had, and Xie Jingyi once thought so too.
The incoming mail ring rang again, but Xie Jingyi ignored it. Xu Shiqing thought this was a good starting point, and he visibly breathed a sigh of relief. "The bureau sent a message. It should be about the meeting about the division of our jurisdiction."
"Go back."
Xie Jingyi didn't move: "The meeting is over."
[?] 021 was stunned for a moment. He looked through the data and comics, but found nothing.
"?" Xu Shiqing said subconsciously: "No, I remember..."
His voice suddenly disappeared.
"Just as you expected, you weren't notified to attend the meeting regarding the district allocation." Xie Jingyi said, "You and I were assigned to the northwest, which radiates outward from City N."
"I'll check the bureau's surveillance records." The system said.
"No, no, he wouldn't lie." Xu Shiqing stopped the system. This was something that had already happened, and by its nature, there was no point in verifying it.
But Xu Shiqing still felt a little anxious. He didn't hide this and bluntly expressed his dissatisfaction: "Why? The white fog is spreading towards the city center and the coast. Why don't they let us go to those high-risk areas?"
"You know why." Xie Jingyi raised his head and looked directly into the young man's gray eyes, like a beast stalking its prey. "Comrade Xu Shiqing, no one is stupid."
Xu Shiqing's body trembled, he was actually frightened by this look.
He pursed his lips: "I don't think you are stupid."
But you yourself are obviously not a smart guy.
Xie Jingyi felt extremely helpless.
He had to be the only "bad guy" in that story.
"Do you remember what happened in the orphanage?"
Xu Shiqing didn't quite understand: "I don't remember."
"..." Xie Jingyi laughed, and then he said, "You, what should I do to you?"
"...What exactly do you want to say?" Xu Shiqing said. He realized that the other party wanted to start a long conversation with him, so he sat on the bench consciously, only a fist away from Xie Jingyi.
"The bureau's recent reorganization has reviewed everyone's reports, including Bai Wu's. At the same time, our Bai Wu detection and exploration technology has made significant progress." Xie Jingyi said, his tone measured. "The final outcome of that meeting was for me to persuade you."
"..." Xu Shiqing asked: "What do you want to persuade me?"
There was a hint of understanding in his eyes.
"You are not human." Xie Jingyi said.
[Tell him you're not human.] System 021 said, [The identity the world consciousness gave you is truly unreliable and doesn't stand up to scrutiny.]
"...Yes." Xu Shiqing nodded.
"Hacking into the system to create a fake identity for you was a bit careless," 021 said. "When they visited again, the dean actually said she found you suspicious because you were so beautiful. She must have remembered you."
[Damn that director, she kidnapped children] 021 gnashed his teeth [She deserves to be arrested! ]
"...In short, the dean was arrested. To reduce her sentence, she confessed everything when asked about you. Later, we went to look for people your age who you should know, and they all said they had no impression of you."
"You're supposed to be in that welfare home, and the household registration system records it that way. We can only conclude that your resemblance to 'Xu Shiqing' is accidental. Do you understand?"
Xu Shiqing: "...I understand."
"Is the allocation of jurisdictions also due to this?"
