Chapter 3 Unexpected Events "Little girl, don't be too clear-headed about life."...
Shi Wei's work at ADT was very easy. She didn't know if anyone knew her background, and her work went very smoothly. Sermo appreciated her and promoted her two levels in just one year.
The entire A district is responsible for the production of professional promotional videos. She only found out after joining ADT that ADT actually had a long-term cooperation with the propaganda department of the Imperial Committee... This meant that the requirements for the finished product were extremely strict.
Each handover was a major headache for the entire Area A. The government departments' procedures for handling affairs were extremely complicated, with reviews at each level and approvals at each level. Often, it would take a month to prepare and three months to review.
Moreover, some high-ranking dukes do not like to use high-tech products—they even retain the habit of signing with pen and paper. When Shi Wei first saw a viscount take out a pen from his pocket, she was shocked for a long time.
This is a museum-quality item.
She remembered that when Lu Qi signed the agreement for her, he also brought paper documents. At the time, she thought it was to prevent her from using electronic products, but she didn't expect it to be a tradition.
Sermo, who was often in charge of liaison work, once complained to Shiwei: "If you are in charge of this matter for more than three months, you will get to know all the officials, big and small, in the department you are liaising with."
Shi Wei joked, "Then you've been working for ten years, haven't you even met the Emperor?"
Sermo shrugged at her: "I saw him ten years ago."
"Ten years ago, I was still a newbie. It was the 50th anniversary of the counterattack. We were going to make ten sets of films, one of which was to film the Emperor. I was lucky—I was in charge of the drone retrieval for that set. Then I met the Emperor. I was so excited that I almost threw the drone at his face..." Sermo recalled. Ten years ago, he was only in his sixties, not much older than Shi Wei is now. He actually caused such a mess.
"And then? Were you captured on the spot by the guards?" Shi Wei asked, intrigued.
The Emperor sighed: "The Emperor is very skilled. The drone was blown to pieces, and there was no need for the guards... However, he did not make things difficult for me and even praised my unique filming technique."
"She sounds very kind," Shi Wei commented.
Sermo smiled but didn't say anything; he had thought so too back then.
Shi Wei felt that she was very, very distant from such legendary figures.
Until she went to Milan with Thermo for a project.
Milan is the third largest city in the Manla Empire, with vast blue waters and beautiful flowers.
In recent years, she has been able to travel around, but she cannot return to China.
For her, it doesn't matter where she goes.
“Xiao Shiwei, don’t always stay at home watching soap operas. You’re only in your fifties, you should go out and travel,” Sermo said.
She smiled bitterly to herself. She had once wanted to travel to all eight star systems, but her mission had backfired, and she almost lost her life on her first stop.
She couldn't resist Sermo's enthusiasm; this gentle and handsome boss always showed her a special kind of care.
That feeling was vague, and she was only vaguely aware of it. As an Omega, she naturally couldn't avoid being pursued by Alphas.
She didn't speak, and Sermo didn't take any further steps, maintaining a just-right distance.
Until the day I went to Milan.
That day was also the second unexpected event in Shi Wei's life.
She was wearing a white dress and a huge sun hat. After the aircraft landed, she felt the sunshine of Milan.
Warm and beautiful.
As the group went through security, Sermo walked behind her and said with a smile that this outfit was perfect for the beach.
"You're sure to take some really beautiful photos." His golden eyes shone with a smile as bright as the sun.
Shi Wei revealed the scanning chip on her wrist, turned to him and said, "Okay, I haven't seen it before..."
"Beep beep beep beep! Beep beep! Beep beep beep—" A piercing sound came, and Shi Wei only saw Sermo's eyes flash red for a moment, and then she heard various alarm sounds.
The alarm sounded unfamiliar, yet it seemed familiar.
When she was pinned to the ground by the law enforcement team, she finally remembered where she had heard that voice before.
National Security Bureau.
Every bone in her body ached. She was roughly pressed to the ground, her hat fell to the ground, and the violent impact broke her forehead.
Shi Wei struggled to lift her head, only to be met with the muscular, cold-blooded Alpha soldiers. Their icy voices slammed into her head like iron blocks: "You under surveillance, why are you here?"
“I…” The frail, pale Omega opened his mouth and made a soft sound, which made him frown.
"Who is in charge of you? Didn't they tell you that you can't leave the supervised area at will?"
Blood trickled down her forehead and into her eyes. She finally managed to utter a complete sentence: "I applied..."
She had applied in advance, and Susie had approved it.
Sermo, who was rushing inside regardless of everything, heard these words and stood there stunned. Then he was kicked to the ground by the law enforcement team and watched helplessly as Shi Wei was taken away.
What... what do you mean by not being allowed to leave the supervised area at will?
What did she say?
Sermo was lifted up and questioned roughly, his mind blank.
She said she applied.
Sermo, a native of Manra who had lived on this planet for decades and dealt with the government for nearly twenty years, finally realized that this gentle and silent girl was not as simple as he thought.
Milan branch of the Security Bureau.
A gentle and beautiful Beta male nurse bandaged Shi Wei's forehead, carefully sprayed on a fast-healing skin medication, put a light blue protective patch on her, and braided her hair into a plait.
The Beta male nurse looked at the Omega who was still sobbing softly and muttered, "Are those Alphas out of their minds? Who would rate an Omega as an S-class supervisor? Don't cry, baby, even if you're being supervised, you still have human rights! Don't accept their apology, okay? After you get out, call 12345 and report them to the Omega Association..."
The handsome male nurse held up a small mirror so she could see his beautifully braided hair, and said, "It's okay, you're an Omega, and a foreigner at that. Even if you're under the security bureau's supervision, it's fine. What are those soldiers thinking? Even if you blew up Milan, you wouldn't be rated S-class. You're a precious Omega, and these Alphas are all muscle-bound!"
Shi Wei lowered her head, her white skirt stained with dust and blood. She was actually not injured. The soldier who was holding her down had loosened his grip when he realized she was an Omega. However, the difference in strength between an Omega and an Omega was too great, and she fell down with a gentle push.
Sermo... Sermo's last look.
Shi Wei shed tears, one after another.
This is what Lu Qi saw when he came in.
He was actually having a bit of a headache, because this accident couldn't be attributed to this Omega. After her application was read, her superiors failed to grant her the necessary permissions, which is why she was flagged by security.
Tsk, it took so much effort to arrange an identity for her.
They have ties to the government, reside in the capital, have a limited range of activities, and are easily monitored.
Can I still use this identity now?
Why don't we just kill her?
Since it's not a native Omega, I won't feel bad killing it.
well.
Chief Lu Qi, the head of the Security Bureau's special agents, is having his first headache trying to figure out how to deal with a troublesome Omega.
She really looked... pitiful when she cried.
Why didn't that traitor Decali just go straight to the point of no return and hand over the chips to the Alliance?
Unfortunately, the chip was ultimately given to this innocent Omega.
If he has a change of heart, he should turn himself in. For the sake of his old colleague, he could risk his life to apply to the Emperor for a life sentence.
It's better than facing this crying little girl right now.
Lu Qi coughed, his bright red rabbit eyes fixed on him. He was slightly embarrassed: "...You should have submitted your application a month in advance. The system doesn't update your location immediately, uh—"
Shi Wei glanced at him, trying to calm herself down, and asked in a hoarse voice, "So what do we do now?"
There weren't many eyewitnesses at the scene, and the difficult one to deal with was Sermo. Having spent so much time with Sermo, Shi Wei had a general understanding of his family situation... He was the third son of the Crozier family. Although he wasn't a top-tier noble family, he wasn't someone the Security Bureau could silence at will.
Lu Qi shrugged: "I can only give you another identity, a different face, and warn his father again... Can't you just go to your job obediently?"
Shi Wei's face twisted slightly. She knew that Lu Qi held a high position in the Security Bureau and could not be offended, but she still couldn't help but ask, "Is this what I wanted?"
That damned Security Bureau has only ever rated two Omegas as S-level supervisors over the years—one being Asta, the Queen Mother who livestreamed her court raid in front of the entire universe, blew up the entire high-energy research institute, and killed countless nobles.
One of them is her.
Rounding up, she's roughly on par with Astana.
As Lu Qi unlocked the restriction order for her, he said to her, "S-level supervision, this is the highest honor in our Security Bureau. You are an Omega who has enjoyed the same treatment as the First Lady - when you brag to your grandchildren in the future, they will think you are going to have dementia."
Shi Wei rolled her eyes at him. After dealing with him a few times, she found that Lu Qi's inner self was not consistent with his cold-blooded and ruthless appearance. She calmly said, "I am a non-marriage advocate."
She had subtly hinted at the possibility of her being released early, and from Susie's attitude, she could roughly guess that the Security Bureau wouldn't actually let her go after ten years, and might not even be able to guarantee those ten years. Perhaps one day she would become useless and be silenced.
Therefore, she cherishes every moment of her life as if it were her last.
Lu Qi opened the door and gestured for her to go out first—not out of respect, but because she was an Omega.
This kind of ruthless spy chief has no need for gentlemanly manners.
"You're not even sixty yet, not even of legal marriage age, so why are you so pessimistic about marriage?" Lu Qi appeared in Milan because he was on a semi-vacation there, so he came to handle things personally and had the leisure to chat with her.
“What future can a critically ill patient diagnosed with terminal illness talk about?” Shi Wei said calmly, sitting in the back of the hovercar with Lu Qi.
Lu Qi paused, then muttered, "Little girl, don't be too clear-headed about life."
In fact, no one paid any attention to her as an S-class supervised individual. After the Decali rebellion was suppressed, the Emperor was busy with the war, and the Security Bureau only needed to submit a monthly account of Shi Wei's life—no, research report.
Anyway, who knows what that damned Decali was thinking at the last minute?
Before Lu Qi arrived, he glanced at the research reports. The Emperor hadn't looked at them in a long time and probably had forgotten about her.
He looked at the girl in the white dress in front of him and thought to himself that she was still able to go out. As security personnel, they not only had to keep an eye on her, but they also had to analyze the ten possible reasons for the empire's first secretary's rebellion from the girl's daily life.
Damn it, I'm speechless.
Moreover, since she was of such a high rank, no one else had the authority to write it; only Lu Qi could write it himself.
Damn it, he's already the number two in the security bureau, and he still has to write this lousy report.
An S-level supervisor requires several hundred people, including Level 10 personnel from the Security Bureau, ranging from Major General Lu Qi, the head of the secret service, to Level 10 specialist 08199. This junior specialist works as an attendance auditor at Shiwei Company, where he regularly records Shiwei's get off work hours and then transmits the data to the database. The database intelligently analyzes the data to generate dynamic trend charts, which are then assessed by a Level 5 supervisor to determine the level of danger.
A Level 5 supervisor assessed the situation as follows: Danger level S, extremely high risk, requires continued monitoring. The target occasionally arrives late to the company's designated time, especially frequently in winter. Strict attention must be paid to their morning activity routes in winter to prevent them from transmitting intelligence during their commute.
Lu Qi: That's really ridiculous.
A young girl was late for work because she couldn't get up in winter, and was rated as an S-level high-risk incident. Is this how you slack off?
This is just one of the security bureau's records; there are at least a hundred dangerous incidents like this, both big and small, every month.
When Lu Qi was writing the report and was on the verge of a breakdown, he thought about finding a reason to kill her and saying that she committed suicide out of guilt.
But that would definitely attract the Emperor's attention, and he would then demand that the Emperor provide the cause, process, and outcome of the suicide, as well as its connection to Decali's betrayal.
Forget it, I'll just keep hiding like this. Studying the daily lives of girls is easier than studying their suicides.
