Chapter 118 Deterrence
After Qi Yi came back, he took the responsibility of picking up and dropping off people.
As they both worked in the White Tower, he wished he could stay outside Ji Zi's office for 8 hours a day so that he could be at her disposal at any time.
But in fact, after working at the Central White Tower for nearly half a month, she finally received an external assignment after cleaning today.
An S-class contaminated swamp area.
The leading military region is unknown.
The time is three days later.
After get off work, she excitedly pushed the door open and ran towards Qi Yi who had been waiting for a long time, but saw someone standing next to him.
Wen Ye also came back.
The two men leaned against the corner like two wife-waiting stones, allowing the guides who came and went in a hurry to cast their gazes at them with indifferent expressions.
Until I saw her appear.
"You're back!" That's really a double blessing.
Qi Yi wanted to leap forward as usual, but an unshakable force suddenly appeared on his wrist, restraining his actions.
Wen Ye stared at him and said, "We are in the White Tower. You have no shame, but the guide still has some."
Ji Zi was deeply moved and agreed with his words completely.
Qi Yi used to only disregard his dignity in private and kneel whenever he wanted, but now he has gotten to the point where he doesn't care about his dignity in public either.
Since he came back, Ji Zi has been laughed at by his colleagues in the guide group for many days.
Many colleagues who are usually aloof and don't like to be approached even added her contact in the work group and quietly asked her what methods she used to make Qi Yi like this.
It was unfair. She had never disciplined him. It was obviously because he had too strong a sense of self-service. He wanted to bark at any time and anywhere, and he wanted everyone in the galaxy to know that he was Ji Zi's most loyal dog.
On the way back, Qi Yi was forced by Wen Ye to drive.
Wen Ye took out a gift box he had prepared long ago from the storage room and handed it to him, saying with rare gentleness, "Open it and take a look."
Three warm water energy crystals emit a faint bright luster.
As soon as he and Qi Yi arrived at the Central White Tower to take up their posts, they took on tasks day and night, and it turned out that it was all for her.
My eyes were a little moist for a moment.
Wen Ye in front of him was a shade darker than before, successfully turning into a piece of black chocolate. The exposed skin had a matte texture and felt as smooth as satin.
Ji Zi took the initiative to kiss his face, "I like it very much." Thank you.
She just repeated the last two words silently in her heart.
Return to the Ji family's old house.
The housekeeper suddenly informed Ji Li that he had to leave the Central White Tower for a few days for official business, and his personal terminal was temporarily blocked, so Ji Li could not notify her in person.
Ji Zi looked at the butler who tried hard to pretend to be calm and responded.
After dinner, Wen Ye and Qi Yi had something to discuss alone, so she took the opportunity to go downstairs and ask them.
"Did Ji Li leave me any words before he left? Did he just ask you to tell me this?" Ji Zi asked.
The young butler stammered and covered up for a while, but even though he was already aware of Jili's mind-reading ability, he didn't plan anything deliberately and tried hard to pretend that everything was calm.
But she still insisted on getting to the bottom of it.
"Miss, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but my master told me before he left. I don't want you to worry." The butler frowned. "The person who came this time is not simple. It seems that this is not a simple investigation and interrogation like last time."
Given Jiezhi's status and position in the Federation, there are few people in the entire galaxy who can be rude to him.
So Ji Zi immediately thought of the old politicians that Ji Li had mentioned before.
After thinking for a moment, she asked again, "Did Ji Li say when he would be back?"
"No."
There is no return period.
These two words left a deep and shallow mark in her heart, and also brought about a strong sense of uneasiness.
This is not in line with disciplined habits.
He is a person who will give an explanation for everything.
Before leaving the first floor, Ji Zi simply instructed the housekeeper, "While he's away, if anything happens, remember to report it to me as soon as possible."
I had originally thought about sharing my joy of finally getting an overseas assignment with the three of them tonight.
But it just happened that the discipline was not there.
In some mysterious way, it seemed as if he wanted to get rid of her intentionally.
Half an hour later, she came to the study where Qi Yi and Wen Ye were discussing. Both of their expressions became slightly heavy, not at all as relaxed as they were at the dinner table just now.
She knew without even thinking that he must have learned about the discipline.
"I received an overseas assignment today." As soon as they opened their mouths, their breathing became tense involuntarily.
Qi Yi is a simple-minded person and is not someone who can hide things.
He avoided looking at her, not daring to look directly at her.
Wen Ye seemed much more stable than him, but that was just an appearance. The two of them, whose minds were already in a complete mess, had already revealed all their thoughts.
"You haven't forgotten who marked you, have you?"
This one sentence completely broke the two men's intention to hide it from her.
"I'm sorry." Qi Yi and Wen Ye said in unison.
Ji Zi sat on the sofa, her eyes suddenly becoming a little cold as she swept across the faces of the two people.
"Is it necessary to hide this from me?"
The Guide is the one who knows her Sentinels best, and even without Discipline and the mind-reading ability she shares, she can still sense their true inner thoughts at all times.
Both of them were frightened by Ji Zi's stern attitude and dared not say a word. They sat on the sofa opposite, with their backs straight and their heads slightly lowered, and they only dared to look at her toes.
"I didn't mean to hide it from you..." Wen Ye wanted to explain.
Ji Zi stood up and walked up to him step by step.
"Discipline is also a sentry I marked. If anything happens to him, shouldn't I be the first person you should notify? As your guide, I should be responsible for you."
"Or do you think I don't have the ability to bear the consequences of this matter?"
She revealed the concerns in both of their hearts without any concealment.
Wen Ye lowered his head, and Qi Yi was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe.
"Tell me everything you know, from beginning to end."
Perhaps it was because she had been protected and blessed by them all the time since the first day she became Ji Zi, so that even now that she had grown up, they still looked at her with the old mindset of protecting a baby.
I believe that guides are born to be protected by sentinels, the kind that takes care of them in every possible way.
But, have they forgotten one thing?
If the guide is really born weak, how could he mark such a powerful sentinel?
Even Jidi, the strongest monster produced at the end of the last century and the only remaining SSS-level dark sentinel in the entire galaxy, was marked by her effortlessly, wasn't he?
Isn't this enough to prove that the guide's ability must be superior to that of the sentinel?
Ji Zi's attitude changed so quickly that even the usually overbearing Wen Ye was shocked and became incoherent.
What they received was the latest news from Hanasaki Kiri from the Federation.
This time, Discipline was not questioned as a routine matter.
Rather, the son of a certain politician or minister was carrying out a secret state mission and had been severely contaminated. He urgently needed to use the essence of discipline to transform his genes, otherwise he could only survive for a week at most.
