Chapter 1
"Yesterday, another person with the ability to turn invisible appeared near Xinyang Plaza Commercial Street in our city. This person was completely naked and suddenly appeared in front of women walking alone, enjoying causing panic. In the past three months, our city police and the Supernatural Investigation Bureau have received 127 calls for help. However, due to the person's invisibility, the police have not yet been able to capture him. Everyone is advised to travel in groups, especially women, and try to avoid walking alone..."
Gu Tanxi turned on the TV but didn't watch it.
Drawing eyebrows in front of the mirror.
Today is the day she gets her marriage certificate. Although she usually likes to go without makeup, she decided to respect this sacred moment.
Put on full makeup.
There are more and more people with special abilities around the world now.
People have awakened all kinds of strange superpowers, and it is actually a good thing for everyone to have superpowers.
It would be scary if it could be used to do weird things.
This is all! The naked, invisible, and suddenly scary exhibitionism is not the most disgusting thing.
Some time ago, there was a creature that could transform into a dog. It turned into a very cute golden retriever, but its only purpose was to follow people with beautiful feet home and lick their feet while they were asleep.
After being caught, he admitted that he had a foot fetish.
Later, he was forced to take a suppressant to prohibit him from transforming into a dog and licking people.
There are many perverts these days, but not many are this perverted.
Gu Tanxi finished her makeup and looked left and right in the mirror.
Very satisfied with her beauty.
She hasn't spoken yet.
A palm-sized Q-version figure popped out of the mirror.
The little person was wearing a silver fishtail skirt, her long silver hair was tied into a pigtail, and she was wearing a diamond crown on her head.
It's like a cute little character that came out of a comic book.
The little Q-man was floating in front of Gu Tanxi, fluttering left and right.
In a sweet and childish voice, she said, "Wow! You look so beautiful today, only a little bit less beautiful than me!"
Gu Tanxi took out the perfume and sprayed it.
Smiling perfunctorily: "Yes, yes, you are the most beautiful woman in the world."
The little Q in the mirror raised her double chin with satisfaction: "Yes, I am the most beautiful woman in the world."
The water dispenser on the chest of drawers next to it suddenly started to gushed out water.
Standing on the water dispenser was a short man in a black suit, with his hair combed back and meticulously done.
He said in a serious tone: "It's been so long since you got up, and you haven't had any water yet."
The enameled two-handled cup under the water dispenser was already filled with water.
Lying on the edge of the cup was a little boy wearing an enamel-colored lantern-sleeved short top and cropped lantern pants. He was very young and handsome.
A pair of big blue eyes.
If this were in a comic, he would have the looks to be the male protagonist of a campus comic.
The enamel little Q-man supported his head with one hand and said in a charming manner: "Baby~ Drink me~"
The refrigerator suddenly opened.
A small Q-shaped figure in a fashionable coffee-colored suit flew out and said proudly, "What's so good about plain water? Drink me, I'm delicious."
The enamel figure snorted and said disapprovingly, "The coffee is bitter and not tasty."
"Then drink me! I'm fragrant and sweet. Today I'm drinking strawberry coconut milk tea, I love you~"
A lot of little Q people suddenly appeared at home.
They all flew towards Gu Tanxi, chattering as if vying for his favor.
"Drink me, I'm sweet."
"Drink me, I'll wake you up."
“Drink me, I’m healthy.”
"Drink me, I'll replenish my blood!"
Gu Tanxi was used to it, but today she was in a hurry to go out, so she didn't chat with them.
He stretched out his hand and swatted all the little Q-men away.
"Be quiet. I want to be more beautiful today. Drink black coffee to reduce swelling. Everyone, please stop arguing and stay home. Bye!"
Gu Tanxi took a bottle of coffee, unscrewed the lid and started drinking.
The little Q man from the breakfast machine hurriedly flew to the door with a freshly baked sandwich.
"Baby~ I need breakfast!"
"Thank you!" Gu Tanxi took the sandwich and went out.
Only she can see those little Q people.
That's her superpower.
When she was eight years old, she awakened this magical ability.
Little Q-people appeared on many things, and those inanimate objects, furniture, and electrical appliances became living things in front of her.
They are like her friends, participating in her daily life.
As soon as Gu Tanxi entered the elevator, his cell phone rang.
When she saw the caller ID, it was the man who would soon become her husband.
She picked up the phone.
The other party spoke without waiting for her to finish her words, and his tone sounded a little anxious.
"Hello, I'm Jiang Youqi, the person you agreed to marry today. Are you out now? I'm a little busy, so I hope you can be on time."
"I'm already out. It'll take me twenty minutes to get there. We agreed to go at 9:30, and it's only 8:40 now. I won't be late."
Gu Tanxi replied that she didn't expect the other party to be busier than she thought.
"It would be better if you could arrive earlier."
Gu Tanxi pursed his lips, smiled at the air, and replied: "I can, are you here already?"
"Not yet, but soon. Do you want to drive yourself? Or should I pick you up?"
"No need, I can drive there myself."
"Okay, see you at the door."
"See you at the door."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Tanxi just happened to come to the front of the car.
She opened the car door and got in.
Stuff the last bite of sandwich into your mouth.
I never thought that my wedding day would be so rushed.
She came to the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
I even specially fixed my hair.
Then he called Jiang Youqi.
Jiang Youqi saw the incoming call alert on his mobile phone, but did not answer it. He looked up and his eyes swept across the faces of many strange women like a scanner.
Then his eyes fixed on her face.
How did he know for sure it was her?
Gu Tanxi was very curious.
She had seen Jiang Youqi before, on TV and on the Internet.
But Jiang Youqi definitely has never seen himself.
Because today is the first time they meet.
There are several steps at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Jiang Youqi stood on it, looking down at the people walking into the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Those who come to get married come in pairs, and those who come to get divorced also come in pairs.
Even if a man and a woman make an appointment to meet at the door to get a divorce, the expressions on their faces will not be immature and uneasy.
So Jiang Youqi recognized the other person at a glance.
What's the name?
He just glanced at it and didn't look at it carefully.
It seems his last name is Gu.
Just when he wanted to take a look at the message and confirm the other party's name to avoid calling the wrong person, his phone rang again.
He picked up the phone and waved to the other party.
Gu Tanxi walked towards him, and as she walked up the stairs, she felt her legs going weak.
The decision to get married quickly was made very quickly.
She barely thought about it.
A week ago, her father, who had not had time to take care of her for many years, suddenly contacted her and said that he could arrange for his younger siblings to go to the best schools and ensure that they had enough money to finish college. If they had excellent grades, he could also send them abroad for further studies. After returning to China, he could also arrange for them to work in the company if necessary.
With such a smooth road in front of him, Gu Tanxi had no choice but to choose it.
More than two years ago, her mother died within two years of her parents' divorce.
Leaving behind younger siblings, the father hated his mother for betraying him and was unwilling to give a penny to his brothers and sisters who were not related to him by blood.
He even disliked his own daughter.
Before she graduated from college, her father still gave her living expenses on time every month.
But after graduating from college, she refused to work in his company. In a fit of anger, he stopped giving her money and ignored her affairs.
For so many years, my younger brothers and sisters have been raised by my grandparents.
But now, my grandparents are old and can no longer provide much care for my younger siblings.
I have just graduated for two years and can barely support myself. I cannot afford the living expenses and tuition fees of my younger siblings.
If her grandparents get sick and need money, she won’t be able to give them anything. When she thinks about the future, she becomes very stressed.
Her father suddenly offered such a good condition, and she had no reason to refuse.
But she knew that there was no love without reason, even from her biological father.
Her father needed her to marry a 40-year-old divorced man.
Although she loves her younger brothers and sisters as well as her grandparents, she loves herself more.
She couldn't sacrifice herself for the sake of others.
Coincidentally, she saw the push message from the dating website that very night.
When he saw the photo, Gu Tanxi thought the other person was so stupid.
They actually stole Jiang Youqi's photo.
Jiang Youqi is handsome, has a good figure, comes from a good family, and has a high level of education. If he had not awakened his superpowers during college and been recruited into the Superpower Bureau, he would have been a wealthy financial tycoon.
In recent years, more people have awakened their superpowers, and there have been more cases of superpowers.
Ordinary police have no way to deal with crimes committed by people with special abilities.
The task of investigating supernatural cases and catching supernatural criminals falls on the members of the Supernatural Bureau.
But there are very few people who are truly qualified and capable enough to enter the Supernatural Bureau.
Jiang Youqi solved almost all the supernatural cases in An City. He was often in the news and was considered a household name.
There are actually people stupid enough to use his photo to go on blind dates.
Who can believe this?
Gu Tanxi didn't believe it, but seeing that he looked handsome in the photo, he clicked on his homepage to admire his photos.
Every photo is a high-definition selfie.
Although the photos were taken in a very formal manner and seemed to be photos required for work.
But he is still handsome from every angle.
Gu Tanxi flipped through the photos back and forth.
The website popped up a prompt: You must like it after watching it for so long? Send a message and chat!
Gu Tanxi casually clicked a red button, thinking it was the cross to close the dialog box, but the system automatically sent a greeting.
As soon as the greeting is sent, the other party will send a message.
The first sentence successfully attracted her attention.
He said: I am Jiang Youqi from the Bureau of Supernatural Powers. I have no time to fall in love because I am too busy with work, and my family is urging me to do so. Now I want to find a woman to agree to a marriage for three years. The remuneration is six million, plus a 200-square-meter flat in the new city area. If you don't like it, you can get a discount. I have only one requirement, which is that the other party also wants to find someone to be a shield. I can pursue my career freely during the marriage, but I am not allowed to fall in love. I will divorce her when the term is up. I hope the other party is a clean person who can pass the political review.
Gu Tanxi laughed out loud when he saw the last sentence.
Passed the political review...
It's a bit funny, but she really likes this kind of strict partner.
Gu Tanxi still didn't believe it at the time, and asked the other party to send a video of reciting a passage from "The Moon Shines on My Bedside" to prove that the photo was not stolen.
Half a minute later, Gu Tanxi received a short video of Jiang Youqi reciting ancient poetry.
Jiang Youqi in the video must have been speechless by her request. He looked unhappy and recited the ancient poem perfunctorily.
At the end, he didn't forget to ask: "Have you joined the party?" He handed over his party membership card.
What a coincidence, isn't it?
Gu Tanxi is indeed a party member.
So she took a screenshot of her electronic party membership certificate and sent it to him.
Jiang Youqi looked at the one-inch photo on the screenshot and asked her if she was willing to get married.
Of course Gu Tanxi is willing.
Not to mention the money and the house, just for this person, she is willing to be his shield.
At that time, Gu Tanxi might have been tempted by her beauty. She never thought that she would be such a lustful person.
My head was boiling with blood at that time.
I want to marry this man, even if we get divorced in the future.
He defends the country, she protects him!
When she thought about it now, she realized how childish she was.
Then, there was this scene where she was standing in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Jiang Youqi was busy talking on the phone, looking to the side without looking at anything carefully, as if he was thinking.
"I'll be there in a minute. You guys go to the scene first and communicate with the police and the victim."
Gu Tanxi heard what he said on the phone.
I have always known that there are not many people in the Bureau of Supernatural Powers. The director has repeatedly called on everyone to come for interviews bravely in the media. Although the Bureau of Supernatural Powers offers very good benefits, many people still dare not go.
Some people who want high-paying jobs cannot reach the threshold.
Jiang Youqi also complained in the media that he worked like a horse every day and was exhausted.
But for the sake of the people, he can endure it.
He is a very honest person who doesn't say nice things.
Gu Tanxi had a very good impression of him in the media. Now he was standing in front of him, directly receiving the hormones he exuded.
She felt that her first impression score was also perfect.
Gu Tanxi shyly lifted the long hair beside her ear.
Fortunately, I am wearing full makeup today, so I should be at the peak of my appearance.
His impression of her shouldn't be too bad, right?
Jiang Youqi hung up the phone and opened a few text messages.
Without even raising his head, he tilted his chin inwards, saying, "Not many people are getting married today, so there's no need to queue."
"Oh..." Gu Tanxi followed Jiang Youqi inside.
It seems like he didn't even look at himself?
No need to queue up to check in, it's fast.
The two did not make eye contact from beginning to end. It only took six minutes of business as usual to get the red marriage certificate.
During this process, Jiang Youqi also received two calls and replied to three text messages.
The aunties who were doing the certificate business all looked at me with contempt.
But when he saw the name on the ID, he whispered with the staff next to him, and looked at Jiang Youqi together, then he immediately looked at Gu Tanxi with a smile on his face.
The two staff members didn't say anything and smiled the whole time.
But the little Q-people that popped out of their heads were chattering.
"Is it Jiang Youqi? The one with the amazing superpowers, Jiang Youqi? His wife is so pretty, a perfect match made in heaven!"
"I thought he was single, but I didn't expect he had such a beautiful wife. Tsk, tsk, tsk. I wanted to introduce my daughter to him, but his job is so busy and dangerous, the chances of me becoming a widow if I marry him are too high."
Jiang Youqi got the marriage certificate and turned around and left as if he had done something.
The customary politeness is: "I have something to do first, I will treat you to dinner next time."
Gu Tanxi hesitated to speak: "..."
After leaving the Civil Affairs Bureau, Jiang Youqi ran across the road and then drove away.
Very fast.
A small Q-shaped figure appeared behind him and ran hurriedly.
The short legs ran like a tornado.
