Chapter 23 Hair is a color control



The law enforcement team arrived on time, and Ichiro Sato was very cooperative. He was taken away without any resistance. However, before he left, he looked at Chen Chu with a somewhat cold look.

"Mr. Chen Chu, I've made note of this matter." Sato said.

"It's just a small matter, Mr. Sato, don't take it to heart." Chen Chu said in a tone that said, "You don't have to thank me."

"..." Sato's face twitched and he turned his gaze to Lin Xi in the distance, with a flash of resentment in his eyes.

Chen Chu took a step to the left and blocked Sato's sight with his body.

Sato was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face. He said nothing more, bent down and got into the car.

The law enforcement officers saluted Chen Chu and drove Sato away.

Chen Chu waited until the car left before turning around and walking towards Lin. At this time, Lin was standing under a banyan tree, holding a string of hydrogen balloons in her hands, jumping up and down, not knowing what she was doing. Chen Chu had already approached her, but Lin didn't notice him, and was still trying to tiptoe. Chen Chu asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

"Ah?" The sudden sound startled Lin Xi. Her hands loosened and the rope she was holding flew out. Hundreds of hydrogen balloons tied to the rope flew up to the sky.

"Balloon!" Lin Xi jumped up and tried to reach for it, but once the hydrogen balloon was freed, it rose so fast that Lin Xi could not reach it at all. She could only watch in dumbfoundedness as the hydrogen balloon floated farther and farther in the air, becoming a scenic line in the blue sky.

"It's over!" Lin wailed. The hydrogen balloons were from the amusement park. They must have been sold out when the amusement park closed yesterday, so the merchant tied them to the banyan tree. Lin was bored waiting for a while, so she came to take a look and found that there were quite a lot of hydrogen balloons. She suddenly wanted to try the feeling of being as light as a swallow, so she untied the hydrogen balloons and played with them in her hands. She originally wanted to tie them back after playing, but...

There were hundreds of hydrogen balloons in that bundle, and they were expensive in the amusement park. Even if they were sold at ten dollars each, she would still lose a thousand dollars.

How could she be so unlucky? She just escaped death and found out that her phone had lost space when she came back. She didn't even have time to buy a new phone and she owed another thousand dollars in foreign debt.

"My thousand dollars." Lin Xi looked at the hydrogen balloon that was flying higher and higher and farther away, and she felt so heartbroken that she almost cried.

Why are you crying all of a sudden?

Chen Chu followed Lin Nan's gaze and looked at the colorful hydrogen balloons in the sky. He suddenly raised his hand and grabbed the sky. At the moment he raised his hand, a breeze blew through the sky, pulling the flying hydrogen balloons back down and slowly landed in Chen Chu's hands.

"Here." Chen Chu handed the rope tied to the hydrogen balloon back to Lin Xi.

Lin Yan stared at Chen Chu in a daze, not even reaching out to take it. Her heart even began to beat violently and uncontrollably.

[Ahhh, I'm teased. I'm going to give him a 30% discount. ]

"Isn't this what you want?"

"Shut up!"

Chen Chu was stunned by the yelling.

"Ah, yes, yes, this is what I want, thank you for helping me get it back." Lin Xi almost snatched the rope from Chen Chu's hand, and then immediately turned around and tied the hydrogen balloon back to its original place. Lin Xi tied the rope very carefully, and did not turn around again until the heat on her face and her heartbeat returned to normal.

"Thank you, senior. If it weren't for you, I would have almost lost another thousand dollars." Lin Xi thanked again.

"You're welcome." Chen Chu smiled. He found that Lin Xi was really sensitive about money. When she saw the balloon flying away, the first thing she did was to convert the balloon into equivalent money.

"Well, the law enforcement team has taken Sato away?" Lin Xin realized that the law enforcement team's car had already left. "What will happen to Sato? Will he go to jail?"

"Sato is an official supernatural being of Country R, ​​so he won't be locked up for long." Chen Chu shook his head, "But he has a history of illegal immigration, so he will be banned from entering China for a period of time."

"That's good." Lin Yan felt relieved after hearing that. Although Sato couldn't beat Chen Chu, it would take her no time to defeat him. As the saying goes, it's easy to dodge an open attack but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark. She was really afraid that Sato would be deported back to his country and then buy a plane ticket to come back and kill her.

It was obvious that Sato was not a good person. Lin still remembered the look in his eyes when he killed Yamaguchi Yuriko. It was not killing a person, it was like killing a chicken. Such a person would definitely bear a grudge, not to mention that she had stolen his things. Although it was Zhenzi's fault, the grudge would definitely be against her. So while waiting for the law enforcement team, Lin had been hiding here, in order to reduce her presence in front of Sato. It would be better if she could forget about her.

Well, she was a little scared.

"Let's go to the headquarters." Chen Chu had already reported to Assistant Tan about rescuing Lin An, and Assistant Tan asked him to take Lin An to the headquarters.

Lin Yan followed Chen Chu out of the amusement park and called an online taxi to No. 106 Chunfeng Road.

"Assistant Tan wants me to do it?" Lin asked.

"I think we should give you some on-the-job training." Chen Chu said.

“On-the-job training?” Lin Xi was stunned. They actually have on-the-job training for a job where they don’t have to go to work unless they have to do something else?

Chen Chu glanced at the online taxi driver in the front row and said cryptically, "You need to supplement some knowledge, such as what happened last night."

"Oh." Lin Xi suddenly realized that he wanted to supplement her knowledge of the sub-space, which she really needed.

What happened last night? On-the-job training? The online-hailing driver, who always encounters countless weird things while driving, couldn't help but take a look at the man and woman in the rearview mirror, giving full play to his imagination.

What kind of job requires a man and a woman to go out at night and do it, and then they have to go through on-the-job training? Is that so formal these days?

"By the way, do you want to call your roommates?" Chen Chu remembered something. "You disappeared yesterday, and they were very worried. They even went to the police station to report it."

"What?" When Lin Xi heard that Xu Ruan and the others had called the police, she subconsciously took out her cell phone from her pocket, but it was empty. Then she remembered that she had lost her cell phone yesterday.

"Here." Chen Chu handed over his cell phone.

"Thank you." Lin Ping held the phone and thought for a long time but couldn't remember her roommate's phone number. Then she returned the phone to Chen Chu very embarrassedly.

"What's wrong?" Chen Chu was surprised.

"I don't remember the phone number." Lin Xi was embarrassed.

Chen Chu laughed: "You have to learn to memorize phone numbers in the future. After all, we often lose our phones."

Whether entering the subspace or fighting with others, mobile phones are easily lost or damaged.

"I will. I will write down the senior's phone number when I get back." Lin Xi nodded repeatedly.

Chen Chu was stunned and looked at Lin Xi.

"And Assistant Tan's from headquarters, I'll memorize them all." Lin Nan added anxiously and guiltily.

"You must remember Tan's phone number. He can help you a lot. Here." Chen Chu handed his cell phone to Lin Yan again.

Lin Xian looked at it in surprise and saw that a familiar phone number had been entered into the mobile phone that was handed over this time.

"Assistant Tan looked it up for you. Your classmate's phone number seems to be Xu Ruan." While Chen Chu was talking to Lin An, he asked Assistant Tan for Lin An's phone number. As the logistical support for the headquarters, Assistant Tan had access to all of their social information.

"Thank you." Lin Xi took the phone again and dialed Xu Ruan's number. The call was connected quickly.

It was a little after six in the morning. For someone like Xu Ruan who had a rare day off and liked to sleep in, this was the time when dreams were the sweetest. But when Lin Xi called, the other party answered almost immediately.

"Xu Ruan, it's me."

"Lin, where did you go last night? Are you okay?"

Hearing her friend's worried words, Lin Xin, who had almost forgotten the thrill of last night, suddenly felt like crying. She turned away embarrassedly, trying to control her emotions, and made up the excuse that her phone was stolen and she had something urgent to do, and fooled around with what happened yesterday.

The car soon stopped at No. 106 Chunfeng Road.

"You go in first, I'll go buy something." Chen Chu said to Lin Xi.

"Okay." Lin Xi nodded and went in first.

In the small building, Assistant Tan was already waiting on the first floor. He seemed to have just arrived and was making tea. When he saw Lin Nan come in, he looked her up and down, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

To be honest, when Assistant Tan first heard that Lin Xi was chased by Sato Ichiro and came out of the subspace, he thought Lin Xi must be in a very bad state, but now he saw that she seemed to be in good condition.

"Would you like some tea?" Assistant Tan asked Lin.

"I don't drink tea, I just drink water." Lin Xi didn't have the habit of drinking tea early in the morning.

Assistant Tan didn't say anything and helped her get a glass of water.

"Thank you." Lin took it.

"You were scared yesterday," Assistant Tan asked.

Lin Xi nodded. She was not only scared, she almost died.

"I am responsible for this matter. I should have reminded you about the things in the sub-space, but because I thought your ability level was not high enough, I did not tell you in detail. In the end, I underestimated the extent of your misfortune." Assistant Tan said.

Lin Yan blinked, and suddenly remembered the strange message that Assistant Tan sent her yesterday: "Assistant Tan, you told me to be careful yesterday. Could it be that you were referring to this sub-space?"

"That's right." Assistant Tan nodded. "As an official organization, we can predict every time the subspace opens. But the subspace only devours those with abilities above level D. You are level F, so I thought you would be fine, so..."

“I see…” It’s all because of the -99 luck value.

“招你進六組,原本也沒打算讓你戰鬥或者探秘次空間,我們對你的定位其實是後勤。本想着等你畢業之後,再讓你慢慢熟悉後勤的事物,卻沒想到你居然先進了次空間。現在看來,我們對你的定位得重新調整了。”譚助理之所以只和林媗簽了保密協議,而沒有做所謂的入職培訓,原因就在于他給林媗的定位只是一個普通的後勤。而次空間,是戰鬥人員需要注意的事情。

“不,不用,我覺得當後勤就挺好的。”昨天那種事情她是真的不想再經歷了,她當個小後勤,沒事占占蔔,真的挺好的了。

“我是無所謂的,不過萬一下次次空間再把你吞了,你确定不提前了解一些?”譚助理問。

“……”林媗頓時哭喪了臉,她很想說,還被吞,自己沒這麽倒黴吧。但對自己運氣值非常有B數的林媗,實在是沒這個底氣。

“這是我整理的一些關于異能界的基本資料,可以讓你快速的了解異能界的一些常識,不懂的你可以問我。等你三個月觀察期過了,我會再給你一個賬號,有了賬號你可以直接進入官方組織論壇,自行查閱資料。”譚助理遞過去一個優盤,叮囑道,“小心不要洩密。”

“我會注意的。”林媗接過。

“還有,我把你拉進群了,你通過一下。”譚助理道。

“什麽群?”林媗一愣。

“六組的工作群,原本要等你觀察期過了才能進入的,但昨晚你的事情鬧的大家都知道了,我就提前把你拉進去了。”譚助理想了想提醒道,“昨天他們為了你,好些人一晚上都沒睡。”

早上好幾個人都感應到了次空間門的開啓,最後是有人發現陳初先一步去了,在群裏發了條消息,其他人才沒有過去。

“啊?!”林媗驚訝的瞪大眸子。

“不然你以為陳初是怎麽第一時間趕過去救你的?”譚助理道,“他一整晚都在感應空間門的開啓。”

林媗情緒瞬間複雜起來,原來陳初學長為了她守了一晚上。

“你也別太有壓力,這也是官方組織的一點便利,以後你若有能力,也要如此。”譚助理道。

“我一定會的。”林媗忽然對六組就有了強烈的歸屬感。

原來不只是陳初學長,六組其他的同事也都在試圖幫她,甚至在素未謀面的情況下。

“會什麽?”這時候陳初走了進來,手裏拎着剛買的早餐徑直走到兩人面前,把早餐往桌上一放,“譚助吃過了嗎?要不要一起吃?”

“等你們的時候我已經吃過了。”譚助理面無表情的道。

“那我們吃。”陳初把買來的包子遞給林媗,“這附近沒有賣早餐的攤子,不過這家24小時便利店的包子還不錯。”

“謝謝學長。”林媗逃命逃了一晚上,這會兒早就餓了,拿着包子就狼吞虎咽起來。

“你們吃,我先上樓了。”該交代的都交代了,譚助理準備上樓去辦公。

“譚助。”陳初忽然喊住譚助理,問道,“組裏還有備用手機嗎?”

“怎麽了?”

“林媗昨晚把手機落在次空間了,如果組裏有,給她一個,省得去買。”陳初說的随意,林媗卻聽的激動不已。

“我去看看,應該還有。”譚助理轉身上樓。

林媗一直等到譚助理離開了,才激動的問陳初:“學長,咱們部門手機也可以報銷的嗎?”

“是備用的,不是報銷,注意用詞。”

林媗愣住,好半天才反應過來,學長的意思是,手機是不能報銷的,但突發情況下可以拿來備用,至于用完還不還,員工則可以自由發揮。

懂了。

林媗一臉欽佩的看着陳初,揩公司油這種事情,果然還是得老員工來幹啊。

陳初被林媗欽佩的表情弄的哭笑不得,要不是知道林媗經濟壓力大,丢了個老人機打電話的時候還和室友抱怨了好幾回,他也不會想到公司的備用手機。

幾分鐘後,譚助理拿着個手機從樓上下來,遞給林媗。林媗看到包裝眼睛就亮了,雖然不是最新款,但這是M家上季度最新款,現在賣也得8000塊呢。她長這麽大,就沒用過這麽貴的手機。

林媗激動的當場就把包裝拆了,生怕晚一步譚助理就給收回去了。

“剛才執法隊來電話,說你搶了佐藤的木系能量結晶?”譚助理的聲音裏帶着驚訝和不可思議,林媗對上佐藤沒死已經是奇跡了,居然還能搶了對方的東西。

“啊,對。”這個事情陳初也知道,林媗壓根就沒打算瞞着。

“你怎麽搶的?”

陳初也看向林媗,其實他也有些好奇,只是之前沒顧得上問。

“就……運氣比較好。”其實林媗自己也不知道是怎麽搶到的,反正回來頭發裏就有了。

“原來是運氣,不過搶的好。”譚助理誇道。

嗯?!自己這是被領導表揚了?

“那這個能力結晶你打算怎麽處理?”譚助理望着林媗,眼中帶着期許。

“需……需要上交嗎?”林媗被譚助理看的渾身發毛,下意識的覺得自己應該上交戰利品。

“你願意上交?”譚助理眼睛一亮。

陳初看了譚助理一眼,沒說話。

“所以……其實也可以不上交?”

“……”譚助理被噎的胸口疼,前一句他還覺得林媗這人挺機靈的,聽出了他的話外之意,怎麽下一刻就變卦了呢。

“正常來說,作為官方組織成員,奉命進入次空間,所得到的特殊物品是要上交組織的。但你昨晚的情況特殊,組織也沒有給你任何的幫助,所以你得到的木系能量結晶可以選擇上交,也可以選擇不上交。但如果你上交,組織會給予你相應的補償。”譚助理殷切的望着林媗。

我說的夠明顯了吧,是你表現的時候了。

“什麽補償?”林媗順嘴問道。

這丫頭情商也太低了吧。

陳初看着微微瞪眼的譚助理 ,差點沒忍住笑出來,只得轉過身去啃包子,假裝沒看見。

譚助理冷靜道:“可以兌換成積分,積分可以用來兌換其他東西,比如可以提升異能等級的能量石,一些特殊物品,也可以兌換成錢,房子……”

“房子?!”林媗眼睛瞬間就布靈布靈起來,她馬上要畢業了,她缺房子啊。

“你要房子。”譚助理也看出來了。

“嗯嗯嗯。”林媗頭點的跟搗蒜似的,“我要房子。”

“行,回頭我發一份房産明細給你,你挑一處,剩下的我給你兌換成積分。”譚助理伸手過去,“木系能量結晶給我。”

“等一下啊。”林媗立馬從儲物空間裏掏出了貞子的長發。

看見忽然出現的長發,譚助理和陳初都沒有太驚訝,因為林媗原本爬電視的技能就屬于空間系異能,身上有空間并不奇怪。

林媗的手在長發裏一頓摸索,終于摸到了那顆被長發死死纏着的能量結晶,不知道是不是錯覺,林媗總感覺這顆結晶好像小了一些。不管了,先薅下來換房子。

林媗扯了扯,結晶紋絲不動。林媗再扯了扯,結晶不但不動,長發甚至裹的更緊了。

“……”林媗懂了,貞子不願意給。

“貞子姐姐,把結晶給我吧,我要換房子。”林媗在心裏道。

貞子不理會,繼續纏着。

“雖然結晶是你搶回來的,但被追殺的是我啊,你差點坑死我你知道嗎?這樣,你把結晶給我,我換了房子,這件事情我就原諒你了。下次再找到結晶,我就不上交了,給你,行嗎?”

貞子依舊不理會,頭發纏的死緊。

“怎麽了?”陳初察覺到林媗表情不對。

林媗尴尬的道:“頭發纏的太緊了,我一下拿不出來。”

“我看看。”譚助理說着就要幫忙去解,誰知他的手才伸過去,貞子的長發忽然“啪”的一下,抽在了他的手背上,頓時紅了一片。

譚助理望着林媗:“你是不是對我有意見”

“不是,不是,是這個頭發,它……有點……有點……”林媗不知道怎麽解釋了。

“我來試試。”陳初眸光閃了閃,剛才那一刻他感覺到了一陣微弱的能量波動。說着,陳初伸手去拿能量結晶,接着令人尴尬的事情發生了,貞子的長發不但沒有抽打陳初的手,反而主動松開了纏着結晶的頭發。

譚助理頓時不幹了:“你還說不是對我有意見?”

“真的不是,您可冤枉死我了,是這個頭發它……”

“它怎麽了?”

“它顏控。”林媗道出實情。

這是一頂會給陳初打七折的頭發,您信嗎?

“……”譚助理。

“……”陳初。

作者有話說:

譚助理:你就是對我有意見。

林媗:是就是吧。
