Stacking buffs
Nanjiang Military Base.
Next to the administration building, fourth floor.
Lu Miao sat on the chairs outside the office and waited.
Lu Xingyang is interviewing Yu Xiaowan.
Twenty minutes later, Yu Xiaowan came out wearing an eye mask, her clothes wrinkled from rubbing her hands together. "Section Chief Lu said I can attend the training now."
"Prove that you passed the interview. Come on, I'll take you to the training room."
"Uh-huh……"
Lu Xingyang, who stayed in the office, slumped in his office chair. Even the cute animal dolls in the room could not relieve his stress.
Maybe he was short-sighted, he really couldn't see what was special about Yu Xiaowan. Except that she wore a single eye patch... No, he didn't discriminate against the disabled, it's just... she was just an ordinary girl!
He sat up suddenly and decided to observe Yu Xiaowan carefully.
The training room is equivalent to a classroom, with one person per desk. A basic theory course on the category of ghost stories is being taught by a bald Mediterranean folklore professor.
Lu Miao sat next to Yu Xiaowan and glanced at her as she took a full page of notes.
She was more serious than Lu Miao in the past, and looked like a top student in high school. Lu Miao at that time was just a lazy student in the class who didn't like to study.
The folklore professor who taught the class noticed Yu Xiaowan's eagerness to learn and felt pleased.
At this moment, Lu Miao caught a glimpse of the furtive Red Hair outside the window.
At noon, Lu Miao took her to the cafeteria for lunch.
"team leader!"
A girl with pink hair walked into the cafeteria noisily, and behind her was He Pingan, who looked like he didn't know her.
"Huh? Who is she?" Wang Keke looked at Yu Xiaowan curiously.
Yu Xiaowan subconsciously lowered her head, trying to cover the eye patch on her face.
Lu Miao put his arm around her shoulders. "Her name is Yu Xiaowan, she's our new team member, and she just finished the basic theory class."
Wang Keke was delighted: "We finally have new team members! My name is Wang Keke, and his name is He Pingan. Have you moved in? Which unit do you live in? Do you like to watch anime?"
"I haven't moved into the dormitory yet..." She rubbed the corner of her clothes again. "I like watching hot-blooded anime..."
"Oh wow!" Wang Keke's green eyes lit up. "I like hot-blooded anime too! Which one are you following now?"
The two started chatting.
Feeling the gossipy eyes around them, Lu Miao urged them to go get some food.
"Captain, has she also experienced the penguin group's ghost talk area?" He Ping'an asked quietly.
"Yes, she participated until the end and became one of the 11 survivors."
He Ping'an couldn't help but look at Yu Xiaowan's back a few more times, full of curiosity.
The seasoning masks the waxy texture of the processed meat, and the wilted vegetables are dyed the color of the sauce, making them look and taste okay.
Having tasted the delicious lunch box, Lu Miao now thinks the food in the cafeteria is not tasty. However, she has a strong tolerance and is not picky about food, so she still finishes her lunch.
Wang Keke, as usual, ate with a frown on her face.
He Ping'an ate rice and dishes with an expressionless face, just to fill his stomach.
“It’s delicious.”
Hearing this, the three looked at Yu Xiaowan in surprise.
"You, what did you say was delicious?" Wang Keke suspected that she was hallucinating.
"Lunch. The lunch here tastes better than the nutritional supplements and processed meat outside." Yu Xiaowan's right eye sparkled.
Lu Miao asked: "Haven't you eaten the reward you received?"
She shook her head honestly. "So I sold all the rewards I received and used the money to treat my eyes and support my family."
Lu Miao felt something was wrong. "How many times have you been through the realm of ghost stories?"
"Uh... around eight?"
He Pingan and Wang Keke were shocked. "I can't tell."
"Hey, that's not right." Wang Keke put down her chopsticks. "The money you got from selling eight boxes is enough to cure your two eyes."
Yu Xiaowan was stunned.
“How much do you sell a box for?”
"Well, that vegetable vendor takes 4,000 yuan each time to collect my reward."
Lu Miao supported his forehead.
"Huh?" Wang Keke slapped his forehead. "You've been ripped off! A complete box of rewards can be sold for 10,000 to 20,000 yuan. If you sell three boxes, you can earn more than enough for treatment."
All the pollution-free fresh products in the box are difficult to cultivate in this world.
Nowadays, even the kitchen faucet for washing vegetables needs to be connected to a water purifier for filtration, and drinking water needs to be filtered twice by a water purifier before it can be drunk.
It is hard to believe that such water can produce healthy poultry. News reports often reveal that farms sell sick poultry. Once this black industry chain is exposed, coupled with the government's introduction of cheap nutritional supplements, all small restaurants have closed down.
Only the mid- to high-end hotel chains run by capitalists remain standing.
Therefore, the fresh food rewarded in the field of ghost stories is a priceless treasure for the upper class, but for ordinary people, it is money earned at the risk of their lives.
"What..." She couldn't hold the chopsticks steadily in disbelief and they fell to the ground with a thud.
"I'm so angry." Wang Keke took out her cell phone. "What's the name of the vegetable vendor? What does he look like?"
Yu Xiaowan was at a loss as to what to do when describing the vegetable vendor's appearance.
After she finished speaking, Wang Keke angrily called someone. "...That guy has a mole on his chin, is only 1.6 meters short, has a pointed face, find him for me!...What do you mean by dead body? I want a living person! I want him to give up the money he stole!"
The green team members sitting next to them looked over timidly, examining Wang Keke who was speaking so arrogantly.
Lu Miao comforted the anxious Yu Xiaowan: "Don't be nervous. Although Keke's family background is complicated, she won't do anything rash."
Yu Xiaowan’s face turned even paler.
After Wang Keke hung up, he gave her a definite message: "Don't worry, you will get your money back."
“Thank you…”
In the afternoon fighting class, Lu Miao handed Yu Xiaowan over to Wang Keke for instruction while she went to write a mission report.
For two whole days, Yu Xiaowan received training during the day and returned home at eight o'clock in the evening. She had to pass the most basic assessment before she could move into the dormitory.
The only good news that was encouraging was that Wang Keke helped her recover 70% of the money she had been defrauded of, and her savings skyrocketed.
Early in the morning on the third day, Lu Miao was called to Lu Xingyang's office.
"The Golden Courtyard community had a power outage at midnight. Until now, the power has not been restored there, and the maintenance personnel at the hydropower station cannot find the cause of the power outage." Lu Xingyang looked solemn.
"Is this a sign of the advent of the ghost story realm?"
"We guess so." He frowned.
Lu Miao guessed why he was looking for her. "Do you need the Green Team to investigate?"
"If only it were that simple. Do you remember the deserted town the mayor talked about? Now everyone is paying a lot of attention to the large-scale open ghost story field, and they don't want a second deserted town to appear."
Lu Xingyang handed her the Golden Mansion brochure. "It's a mid-range community, and the residents are all well-off families. The upper echelons and the capital are paying extra attention to the upcoming strange story field. So this time, we are going to send two investigation teams in, one of which is of course the Fluorescent Green Team."
Lu Miao picked up the strawberry bear on his desk. "Let me guess, when they hear that Department 2 is sending the Fluorescent Green Team, Department 1 will definitely be anxious and will send the most competitive team - the Red Team, right?"
He forced a smile: "Are you stressed?"
"How many people will the Red Team send?"
"Don't worry, Tu Yingt doesn't dare to do anything too much and will only send five people. But I think it is very likely that Xiao Chi will lead the team."
Lu Miao was in deep thought.
"Most of the Red Team members are pardoned criminals or scoundrels. I'm worried that they will mess with you in the field of ghost stories."
She raised her eyes, her eyes were frosty.
"Plus Xiao Chi is a pervert, you guys... I'd better go to the next base to borrow some people. How about Zhang Lian? You have worked together before."
"No need." She supported her temples with her fingers and said thoughtfully, "Sometimes good cannot defeat evil, and evil must be defeated by evil."
"Black eating black?"
"I have a candidate here. Take a look at his resume. But his identity is very mysterious. He should be someone from the upper class. He may be hunted by many enemies. We need to protect him."
“…” Lu Xingyang was speechless.
□□, being hunted, sheltering, stacking buffs!
He was ashamed. "Let me take a look at his resume first."
Five minutes later.
Lu Xingyang counted on his fingers. "In terms of tactics, you have a good chance of winning with three against five. Are you sure you want this person?"
She curled her lips: "You can try it."
As soon as she left the office, she sent a text message to Weekend.
[There is a task, a probation period, do you want to do it?]
The reply from there:
[Dry]
[Pack a simple bag and wait at the gate of Golden Mansion tomorrow]
[receive]
"Captain Deer."
A deep, metallic male voice came from far away. Lu Miao put away his phone and looked up.
The blood-red suit was like flesh peeled off the skin, wrapping around a man with gorgeous features. His long black hair was tied into a ponytail, revealing the bright red earring on his left ear.
This time, the collar of his black shirt was unbuttoned, revealing the lines of his chest muscles.
The person who came was Xiao Chi, the captain of the red team.
"I'm so glad to have the opportunity to work with you so soon." He smiled, not hiding his excitement.
Lu Miao looked indifferent. "Golden Mansion is not within the Red Block. I hope the Red Team will bring fewer dangerous items, otherwise I will report it to the police."
He smiled solemnly. "Of course, I won't let anything affect our cooperation. I'm really looking forward to it."
"We in the Fluorescent Green Team still have things to do. I won't stay here with Captain Xiao to sigh. Goodbye." She turned and walked towards the stairwell.
Xiao Chi's eyes narrowed into a charming arc.
Lu Miao returned to the dormitory and saw a cactus and an unopened gift box on the desk.
This business trip will be longer, so they will check into Golden Court early tomorrow to familiarize themselves with the environment and have no time to water the cactus.
"Well, I'll take you with me." She gently touched the cactus's spines. "I'll play some classical music for you."
It grew one centimeter taller.
As for the gift box...
Time is indeed important in the field of ghost stories.
She opened the gift box and put on the cool watch.
The next morning, a taxi arrived at the dormitory building and the three people went downstairs one after another carrying their luggage.
"Captain, you actually brought a potted plant?" Lu Miao's image became even more majestic in Wang Keke's mind.
Bringing a potted plant into the realm of ghost stories is like going on a trip.
Boss style!
"Bring it to water it."
"It has a lot of thorns. What kind is it?" He Ping'an leaned in to take a closer look.
To be honest, I don’t know about the deer seedlings. “I just bought them randomly. The boss said they are easy to raise.”
“Indeed, cacti can survive without drinking water.”
Other cacti can, but her cactus can’t live without water…
They loaded their luggage into the trunk of the car. The taxi first went to pick up Yu Xiaowan who had gone home to pack, and then set off to the Golden Courtyard community.
Behind the tree near the gate of the community, a tightly covered man looked a little sneaky, carrying a luggage bag.
The taxi stopped in front of him, and Lu Miao, wearing a filter mask, leaned out from behind the window. "Get in."
When the man squeezed into the back row, Wang Keke and He Pingan recognized his eagle-like eyes.
"Is it you?"
Weekend took the initiative to shake their hands. "Hello, I am your future teammate, please give me your guidance."
On the other side, the captain of the Orange Team knocked on Tu Ying's office door and asked to enter the Golden Courtyard instead of the Red Team.
"Huh?" Tu Ying was applying lipstick in front of the makeup mirror and carefully drawing her lips. "Stop messing around. If you guys are free, I'll give you a task right away."
He clenched his fist unwillingly. "Why can't we replace the Red Team? Just because the Red Team is the ace of the department?"
Tu Ying lost the mood to put on her lipstick and glared at him in dissatisfaction. "Whether it's because of the ace is not important, what's important is that Lu Miao and Xiao Chi are the same kind of people."
He was puzzled.
Tu Ying curled her lips: "They are each other's nemesis."
