Lin Mo fell into the same ditch twice.
This time, Chu Zehuai did not choose to be gentle with him like last time. He dragged Lin Mo into a small room alone and did not let him out until a long time later.
Lin Mo, with a pale face and disheveled feathers, walked into the office with deep despair in his eyes. Seeing this, Yuan Xue Yanran whispered to Bai Yu, who had "recovered" and returned to work.
"Lin Mo looks like he was scolded badly by Captain Chu."
Bai Yu looked at his good friend with sympathy.
"Not really. Lin Mo has a strong psychological endurance. He wouldn't behave like this just because he was scolded. Besides, Captain Chu doesn't curse people."
Yuan Xue shook her head. In all the years since she started working there, she had never seen Chu Zehuai swear at anyone.
When Captain Chu is angry, he will just stare at people coldly with a deathly gaze, or beat them up directly.
Judging from the messy and scattered feathers behind Lin Mo, Team Chu should have taken action.
"But even if he was beaten and scolded, he shouldn't have such a desperate expression as if he was about to be tortured. Maybe he was punished to write a self-review of more than 10,000 words."
...
...
Yanran touched his chin and gave another more reliable guess.
"giao~" Xiao Mi cried.
Bai Yu reached out and held Xiao Mi on his knees, then reached out and touched its smooth fur.
Xiao Mi guessed that Lin Mo’s salary was deducted, and this guess made sense.
Ten seconds later, Lin Mo, who exuded a resistance from head to toe, slowly moved to the center of the office, clapped his hands, attracted everyone's attention, and said with a stiff upper lip:
"Well... I want to announce a piece of news to everyone. I have a new title. From now on, you should not call me Lin Mo. You should call me by my new title - Dark Night Demon Crow."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire First Squad office fell into an eerie silence.
After a few seconds, loud laughter broke out.
"Hahahaha Dark Night Crow, Lin Mo, ah no, Dark Night Crow, I remember you were 21, not 12, why are you still so immature?"
After hearing these four words, Yan Ran was stunned for a moment. After she reacted, she could no longer maintain her cool sister image and couldn't help but pounding the table and laughing.
Lin Mo closed his eyes in despair, feeling that he could dig out a new investigation bureau on the spot with his toes.
He didn't want to be labeled as a middle school kid, but he couldn't resist the power and oppression of his brother.
His brother asked him to announce the news not only to the First Team, but also to the large work group in the bureau, and even to the family group, and to have everyone change the note they gave him to "Dark Night Crow".
Those captains will definitely laugh at him without hesitation, and this will become a widely circulated dark history of his, and may even become a long-lasting joke in the Investigation Bureau.
Just thinking about it, Lin Mo felt a black screen in front of his eyes.
"Xiao Bai, why don't you come up with a nickname too, and we can debut together in the Investigation Bureau."
Lin Mo lay on Bai Yu's desk with tears in his eyes, trying to win his friend's sympathy and help with his pitiful eyes and tone.
It's better for two people to have a middle school nickname together than for him to bear such an extremely embarrassing nickname alone.
"I don't, and I don't want to bother thinking of nicknames."
Bai Yu ruthlessly rejected Lin Mo's proposal. The other party was courting death and offended Chu Zehuai. What did it have to do with him?
"Xiao Bai~ Just agree to it, I can help you think of it! Your nickname can be "I'm Depressed", what do you think?"
Lin Mo softened his tone and blinked wildly at Bai Yu.
"I don't think so."
Bai Yu forcibly pushed Lin Mo back to his original workstation, took out a stack of blank documents and shook them.
"Night Crow, if you dare to come up with any weird nicknames for me and publicize them, you will have to write all your mission reports yourself from now on."
Under such a terrifying threat, Lin Mo had to withdraw his idea in disappointment and turn to look for other brothers who could share his hardships.
Fortunately, after Lin Mo's nickname "Dark Night Crow" spread throughout the Investigation Bureau, he finally found someone.
That was Zhou Yi, who had become extremely dark due to constant exposure to the sun.
Lin Mo's nickname is "Dark Night Crow" and Zhou Yi's nickname is "Shadow Black Panther", and the friendship between the two has been sublimated once again.
I don't know how they can appreciate and understand each other.
Bai Yu couldn't understand it anyway.
He couldn't even remember the nicknames of these two people, and he didn't have the free time to write down these two words, so he simply called Lin Mo "pitch black" and Zhou Yi "black as a skunk".
All his time was used to finish writing the documents for the next ten days in a short period of time.
As luck would have it, the pile of documents that could almost fill up an entire filing cabinet was completed in just three days. When they were handed in, the person in charge was shocked.
"Team One, right? How did you finish writing so much at once?"
The person in charge sorted the documents into several piles and put them away. When he turned around, he saw Bai Yu writing something again.
"I want to take fifteen days off."
Bai Yu took this opportunity to write a request for leave and answered casually.
The next fifteen days will be the coldest fifteen days this winter. After weighing the pros and cons, it is better to stay at home and sleep to save energy. In addition, after the fifteen-day holiday, the Investigation Bureau will have five days of annual leave, so I can sleep for twenty days.
"Will your captain agree?"
"I think so. I haven't asked for leave once since I started working here."
Bai Yu took the leave application and thought for a while, then said.
Ever since Chu Zehuai came out of the "Happy Opera House", the atmosphere between them has been inexplicably strange. Every time their eyes accidentally meet, he would immediately look away and unconsciously avoid him.
Bai Yu could only guess that it was the aftermath of the explosive plot of "Happy Opera".
This is not a big deal. Just let the other party calm down for a while. He can also take this time to have a happy hibernation.
**
Qinghe City Investigation Bureau, Director's Office
"I want detailed information about the 'Happy Opera House'. When I was inside, I could clearly feel the influence of the 'personality'. Will this influence last? Are there any records of this in Xizhou?"
Chu Zehuai sat on a chair and after briefly telling Chu Yunrou about his experience at the 'Happy Opera House', he explained his concerns.
"After detecting that the cinema was the contaminant, I have asked Xizhou for its detailed information."
Chu Yunrou opened the drawer and handed a stack of papers to Chu Zehuai.
"I just took a quick look at its abilities. One of them is that it can amplify a person's inner emotions and thoughts. It doesn't subtly change a person's mind as you might think. Don't worry too much."
What Chu Zehuai guessed as being "influenced by the character setting" was actually just an overlap between the character setting and the actor's own personality.
As for the emotions and thoughts that the actor himself does not have, they will not appear out of thin air.
"So that's how it is. I was wondering why Lin Mo deserved a beating in there."
Chu Zehuai nodded to show that he understood, and at the same time heaved a sigh of relief.
No wonder, Lin Mo's mouth is usually very lethal, but not as lethal as in "Happy Opera House". On average, every five sentences he says make people want to beat him to death.
There is also Ye Yu, who looks tall and strong, and who drinks, smokes, and beats people, but she actually likes embroidery.
Wait, according to the "Happy Opera", the emotions and thoughts in the play are actually magnified emotions and thoughts of the actors, so he himself——
"Xiao Huai, what's wrong with you?"
Chu Yunrou looked at Chu Zehuai and saw his expression instantly change from pensive to stiff. The other party's hand holding the document unconsciously clenched, and several creases appeared on the white paper.
"No...nothing."
Chu Zehuai came back to his senses, his long eyelashes drooped, hiding the emotions in his golden orange eyes, and quickly changed the subject.
"I still can't get in touch with Sal. Has Xizhou given any explanation?"
All the high-level pollutants have disappeared, and no one knows what those investigators from Xizhou are doing.
Chu Zehuai never liked to belittle his peers, but after such an outrageous incident, he had to doubt whether the Xizhou Investigation Bureau was really serious about fighting pollutants.
Chu Yunrou, who was suspicious just now, was distracted by this topic. She shook her head and said, "They only said that there was an emergency. As for Sar... he announced to the public that he went to a certain place for further studies."
"I think it's unlikely."
"Who knows? We haven't sent any undercover agents to Xizhou. Their affairs have little to do with us. We just need to take care of Qinghe City."
Chu Zehuai agreed. He glanced at the information in his hand with a complicated expression. He planned to find a deserted place to think about it carefully after returning. However, when he was leaving, he happened to run into Bai Yu who was waiting for him at the door.
"What's the matter?"
When he saw the pair of phoenix eyes looking at him with a smile, he felt as if burned by something, and his gaze shifted an inch to the side.
"Captain Chu, I would like to take fifteen days off. Here is my leave application."
Bai Yu blinked. Is it hot in the director's office? Why does he feel that the tip of the other person's ear is a little red?
"good."
When talking about work, the other party was obviously calmer than before. He took the leave application and signed his name on it.
"I thought Captain Chu would ask a few questions."
I didn't expect that he signed his name directly at the signature area without even looking at it.
Bai Yu had been worried that Chu Zehuai would not approve his leave, so he came up with many different excuses, but he didn't expect that none of them would be useful.
"As long as it complies with the Bureau's leave regulations."
If Bai Yu wasn't around, he would have more time to calm down and think about certain things.
Chu Zehuai handed over the leave application in his hand. When his fingertips accidentally touched the other person's slightly cold fingers, he paused for a moment, then quickly withdrew his fingers.
"Thank you, Captain Chu. I'll be leaving now."
Bai Yu blinked. Is the aftereffect of the explosive plot of "Happy Opera" so serious?
I always feel that Chu Zehuai has not yet returned to normal, and his actions and words are weird.
Forget it, never mind, hibernation is still the most important thing.
Have a good sleep!

"One, two, three..."
In the kitchen, Bai Yu asked the system to open the space and placed the chicken carcasses that had accumulated and had not been eaten yet on the dining table. He did not bother to cook them carefully. He simply followed the recipe and swallowed them all into his stomach.
"One, two, three..."
Dozens of huge carp pollutants were thrown onto the floor, and the small space of the kitchen was instantly filled with the smell of fish and water.
Bai Yu held a huge custom-made scaler and quickly removed all the hard scales and fins on the surface, making a simple sashimi.
"One, two, three..."
"One, two, three..."
........
"One cup, two cups, three cups..."
After eating all the accumulated pollutant corpses, Bai Yu found the pink ** stored in the system space and poured it all into the cup in front of him.
Eight glasses stood neatly on the table, and the crystal pink liquid glowed brilliantly under the light.
The pink juice can only be stored for a long time in the system space and special containers. It will gradually dissipate in normal containers. After pouring the last drop, Bai Yu drank all eight cups of juice.
The energy in the 'Happy Opera House', the energy from the accumulated pollutant corpses, and the stored pink ** energy were enough to make his plant cells reach over ninety, and were also enough to survive his first cold winter in this world.
Vigorous energy circulated in the body, countless green branches and leaves grew wildly from the body, and sleepiness and drunkenness came at the same time.
"Good night, system."
"good evening."
After dozens of seconds, there was no human sound at the place, and huge rose branches filled the entire house and fell asleep in the darkness.
