Xiao He followed Brother Jian back to the company, opened the door of the lounge, and saw Huo An sitting inside.
The real person is more muscular than in the photo, with a broad back and strong arms. He looks like a door god sitting there, intimidating without even being angry. From head to toe, he has nothing to do with the word "delicate".
Xiao He didn't believe it.
In terms of size, he is not much different from the psychics in the team.
That person with special abilities can even lift a car.
She waved.
"Huo An, come here, I have something to discuss with you."
The warrior stood up without saying a word. His burly figure exuded an oppressive air, his muscles bulging high, and he walked towards Xiao He with the image of a macho man.
Just took the first step.
The body suddenly trembled and a soft cry came out.
"Ouch--"
Then bend over and cover your feet.
Biting lips.
Tears flickered in her eyes.
She fell delicately on the sofa.
Xiao He: ???
Pupil tremors.
"What are you doing?"
Huo An frowned and complained painfully, "There were stones on the ground, and they sprained my ankle."
Xiao He opened his eyes wide to search.
There was indeed a stone on the ground, no bigger than a little finger.
Brother Jian gave her a look and said, "Do you understand what I mean now?"
Xiao He was silent.
A muscular man was blowing air on his sprained area with tears in his eyes. The scene was so shocking that she needed to take a break.
Huo An debuted for a year and was discovered by Xiao He in the book. He looks big and strong, but he is actually only 22 years old.
His career, like other artists under Xiao He, has been rough since his debut. When searching Huo An's name online, the keywords that pop up are: sissy, ugly.
There was a lot of cursing.
In fact, Huo An's face is not ugly. It can be said that he is heroic and upright. Coupled with the muscles all over his body, his appearance is not bad at all.
Unfortunately, he is very delicate.
I can choke when drinking water and sprain my ankle when walking.
He gets out of breath after running a few steps, can't keep up with others in physical work, and tears well up in his eyes at the slightest provocation.
Although he has the body of a strong man, he has the same physical conditions as Lin Daiyu.
This directly led to him being caught in a dilemma.
Men call him a motherf***er, while women who prefer pretty boys call him ugly.
After such a long time since his debut, he only appeared in a few announcements in the early stage, and then he just stayed at home.
It’s no wonder that the director of “Speed” refused to let him participate in such a random film.
Xiao He explained the content of the notice to him. When Huo An heard the name of the program, his face turned pale and he shook his head repeatedly.
"I've done similar projects before, and I couldn't get past the first hurdle."
"It's okay. I've already made an agreement with the director. There's still half a month until your first performance. Before the show, I'll give you some simple special training."
Huo An: "But I've never received any training."
"Then what's with all your muscles?"
Many people want to train this beautiful and strong muscle but cannot achieve it.
His face flushed, and he said a little embarrassedly: "This is a family trait. Everyone in my family is like this. When I was a child, they wanted to train, but because of my poor health, they gave up in the end."
Xiao He: ...
Can such a person become a star?
On the way to the company, Xiao He simply looked up some information.
Where she lives, there is no such profession as celebrity.
Most areas have been occupied by zombies, and the surviving humans are huddled in the base, each doing their own job and trying their best to survive.
Can singing and dancing be used to make a living?
But people in this world are particularly crazy about the profession of celebrity.
They regard celebrities as the center of the world and spend all their wealth on them. This is commonplace. When she was looking up information, she saw a news report that five years ago, a fan even chose to commit suicide because of a celebrity.
Xiao He said he couldn't understand.
Open the dictionary and you will find the definition of a star as follows:
Refers to a person who has influence on the public in a certain field and is regarded as a benchmark.
This is similar to leading a doomsday team.
Xiao He briefly and roughly summarized the agent's job description:
It is to cultivate stars to become public role models.
She closed the dictionary and looked at the delicate Huo An.
"Looks like I need to give you some special training."
That day, Xiao He took Huo An to training.
Before leaving, Brother Jian looked at them worriedly.
"I say, just give up. Huo An's physique is just like that. When we first debuted, we put in so much effort but couldn't improve it. There won't be any effect in just half a month."
"How do you know if you don't try? Anything is better than singing."
Brother Jian sighed and wanted to persuade him again, but finally shook his head.
"Forget it, if you want to try it, go ahead. When you're training, remember to send me some photos for feedback."
Anyway, Xiao He is a very soft-hearted person. She will give up immediately if her artists act pitifully.
This time, it probably won’t last long.
Just as he was thinking about it, Xiao He smiled, snapped his fingers, making a crisp clicking sound, and his eyes flashed.
"Don't worry, I don't have any weak soldiers under my command."
Brother Jian was frightened by the smile on her face, and the hairs on his back stood up instantly.
Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling?
He turned around and saw Huo An sitting in the car with an expectant and innocent look on his face, completely unaware of the dangers waiting for him in the future.
Brother Jian silently lit a candle for him in his heart.
"be safe."
The training location chosen by Xiao He was in the woods in the suburbs. It was a sparsely populated area and the dense woods could conceal his presence, so he didn't have to worry about being discovered.
The natural geographical environment can increase the intensity of training and is an excellent training place.
Huo An got out of the car excitedly, like a primary school student going on a picnic.
At first, he was full of anticipation, but after walking inside for a while, he saw the training program that Xiao He had prepared in advance at noon, and the smile on his face disappeared.
"What's this?"
"I've made a simplified version of the level based on the setup in 'Maximum Speed'. For the next two weeks, you'll train here until you're ready to go on stage."
Huo An's face turned pale instantly.
"That would kill people, right?"
Xiao He slowly held out a medical kit. "I can handle simple injuries. If it's too serious, there's a hospital nearby, only a ten-minute drive away. It'll be there in time for emergency treatment."
Huo An: ...
"Sister He, you are so thoughtful."
Xiao He crossed his arms over his chest, put one foot on the tree stump, and corrected him: "From now on, call me Captain."
She changed into a camouflage uniform today, with her pants tucked into her boots, making her look taller. Her long black hair was tied into a ponytail, and she looked heroic.
"Let's start now, step by step. Run twenty laps today, and add more tomorrow."
Huo An, who was about to start running, heard this and his legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
Starting with twenty laps, is this called gradual progress?
He ran over slowly.
It took me two full minutes to move forward with difficulty while lying on the low wall.
When passing the three-step pile, I fell three times.
Jump over the deep pit, jump once, and go in once.
…
Ten minutes passed and I hadn't even finished half the distance.
Xiao He looked at the frail and strong man and silently looked away.
It's unbearable to watch.
"Sister...Captain, I really can't run anymore. If I continue like this, I will die." Huo An begged for mercy breathlessly.
Before he finished a lap, he was already covered in mud, his limbs were weak, and he looked extremely pitiful.
He deliberately moved his face closer to show the beads of sweat on his face.
According to previous experience, as long as he plays the victim and acts pitiful, the agent will soften his heart and agree with him no matter what.
But this time, after he had acted pitifully and looked up, he was met with a pair of cold eyes.
Xiao He remained unmoved.
Soft-hearted?
Sorry, no.
Huo An begged again.
"Captain, please, I really can't run anymore."
Xiao He won't tolerate his bad habits.
However, Huo An was obviously used to being lazy. He just sat on the ground, looking like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
She narrowed her eyes and suddenly smiled.
"I have a cute pet. I'll let it play with you for a while. Maybe you'll have the strength to run."
When Huo An saw that his plan had succeeded, he nodded excitedly.
"Great! I'm so tired I can't even move my fingers. I need the healing of a small animal the most. Captain, is your pet a kitten or a puppy?"
Xiao He: "It's a little hamster."
Huo An was extremely excited and immediately looked forward to it.
"The little hamster is the cutest. It's soft, small, round, and chubby. Captain, if you let me play with it for two hours, I'll definitely have the energy to train..."
Hearing his increasingly aggressive voice, Xiao He laughed.
Never mind two hours.
You can play with it all day long, no problem.
If you dare.
When they reached a deserted place, Xiao He threw out a huge monster directly from the space.
Holding it, he walked towards Huo An.
Huo An was slumped on the ground at this time, still imagining the good times with the little hamster. The next second, the sunlight was blocked out.
The surroundings seemed to darken in an instant.
"Is it cloudy?"
He looked up, and his view was blocked by a dark, tall, round creature.
It has a pair of pointed ears standing up, a furry body, small round dark eyes, two sharp white fangs flashing with cold light, and a long whip-like tail behind it.
Huo An's head was buzzing as he stared blankly at the giant creature in front of him.
The next second, he jumped up in fright.
"Ahhhh what is this?!!"
Xiao He scratched the hamster's neck and said, "My cute little pet."
"How is this small? How is this cute? Help!!"
How can there be hamsters taller than humans in the world?
This thing can be called a cute pet?!
Huo Anhun was almost scared to death and ran away in terror.
This huge mutant hamster was domesticated by Xiao He during the apocalypse. It was not infected with the zombie virus and would not hurt people at will. It was also psychic and could understand human language.
When faced with danger, his strength is no less than that of a combat-type psychic, and in daily life, he can also train with them.
Xiao He touched the hamster that was nudging her.
"Little cutie, do you remember how we trained before? Go ahead."
After saying that, he pointed at Huo An not far away.
The mutant rat flicked its tail and rushed out like an arrow.
The next second, Huo An's miserable cry was heard. He wanted to escape, but was driven back by the mutant rats.
The instinct for survival made him burst out with amazing strength. The high wall that he had been unable to climb over before, he now jumped over it easily with a kick of his legs.
Xiao He was very satisfied.
Can't it still run?
Potential is like courage, it will grow fatter if you scare it.
After running twenty laps, Xiao He quietly put the mutant rat back into the space and checked the time.
"Very good, ten minutes faster than I planned."
Huo An fell to the ground exhausted, tears streaming down his face.
Changed.
Everything has changed.
The agent who used to have a good temper and always went along with them is gone.
Seeing his appearance, Xiao He squatted down.
As the captain of the top team in the apocalypse, she is well aware of the principle of combining kindness with severity.
She lowered her head and gave him a friendly smile.
"Don't worry, I'm not a monster. Today's training ends here. I'll add five more laps tomorrow, ten more the day after tomorrow, and the day after that..."
Before he could finish his words, Huo An's eyes widened, he took a breath, rolled his eyes, and fainted from fright.
Xiao He sighed.
The stars in this world are too spoiled.
If you can't even run fifty laps, how can you be a benchmark?
She grabbed Huo An's clothes with one hand, lifted him up from the ground, and walked out of the woods with ease.
After getting in the car, I remembered that Brother Jian had told me to notify him when the training was over.
So Xiao He took out his cell phone, took a photo of Huo An, and clicked send.
In the photo, Huo An was covered in mud, his eyes were closed, and he was lying in the car in a mess. It looked like a crime scene, which scared Brother Jian so much that he trembled with fear.
Brother Jian: [Is he... still alive? ]
Xiao He: [Still breathing.]
Brother Jian: [……]
Brother Jian: [Didn’t I tell you to be more reserved? Why did you scold me like this?]
Xiao He: [I've already contained it. I only made him run twenty laps.]
When we trained team members in the past, we always started with fifty laps.
Brother Jian: [Are you a devil?]
Xiao He: [How do you know my nickname?]
Brother Jian: [……]
Where on earth did he hire such an agent?
Looking through Huo An's photos, Brother Jian was filled with worry.
I originally thought that the so-called special training was just a pretense, a formality, but I didn't expect Xiao He to be so decisive and really train Huo An to death.
If this continues, it will be questionable whether we can see Huo An safely and soundly in half a month.
He thought about it and quickly went to find the manager.
"I want to get insurance for Huo An quickly."
The manager laughed.
"Is it really that serious? Isn't it just a show? Even though the levels on 'Speed' are difficult, there won't be any danger in the show."
Brother Jian looked nervous.
"No, no, no, it's not the show that's dangerous, it's Xiao He."
