10, Chapter 10

"Mr. Hubbard, it's me, Shaw Scott."

When Boss Xiao sent Hubbard a message, An Zhe was holding a human head and practicing eyebrow transplantation on it.

A hot-melt needle pierced a tiny hole in the skin made of silicone rubber, and then planted fibers simulating human hair into it. When the melted silicone rubber cooled again, the eyebrows were firmly rooted on the doll's head.

Inside the skin. Boss Xiao's eyes were dazzled and it was difficult to carry out this kind of work with high intensity. An Zhe guessed that this was one of the reasons why he was eager to find an apprentice.

Putting down the communicator, Shaw Scott took the doll out of the glass display window and placed it on a seat in the center of the room. All the joints of the doll could be easily rotated. He folded its legs and clasped it with both hands.

Elbow, and finally twist the head so that it hangs its head slightly, the light passes through the eyelashes and casts shadows, creating a condescending and slightly melancholy sitting posture.

An Zhe raised his head and looked there. The dim light cast different shades of shadows on the doll's face. The only subtle difference between silicone rubber and human skin was offset. It looked like a silent living person.

Excessive silence - the surrounding display windows and containers - things that may be considered obscene in human cognition, also become strange and strange in this atmosphere.

The bizarre atmosphere was broken by the sound of the door opening, and the white light from outside shone in, illuminating half of the doll's body. An Zhe squinted his eyes and looked at the man who appeared at the door.

He was tall with a light on his back, half-length black curly hair, brown eyes, and cold facial features. An Zhe could imagine him walking in the wild with a gun.

An Zhe waited for him to come in, but the man just stood at the door. His eyes stopped on the doll in the middle of the room. He didn't make any movement for a long time. He seemed to have turned into a doll.

It wasn't until Boss Xiao coughed and said, "Come in." The man seemed to have woken up from a dream and moved. He strode into the room and when he came close to the doll, his speed suddenly slowed down. An Zhe

Watching him raise his hand to touch the face of the doll, his fingers were hanging in the air, but they didn't come down. In the quiet room, the only sound was the man's slightly trembling breathing, which was very light. Maybe the doll's eyelashes were resting on it.

He was holding a butterfly, and he was afraid of disturbing it.

Finally, he took his right hand back to his side, looked at the puppet, and said, "Thank you."

"No thanks." Boss Xiao walked over and looked at him with gray-blue eyes: "I have to thank Mr. Hubbard for giving me enough data."

Hubbard smiled, but his eyes were still lowered.

Boss Xiao pointed to the person-sized packaging box next to him: "Shall I do it?"

"I will do it myself."

He finally put his fingers on the doll's shoulders, slowly moved down, picked up the doll, and put it into the box.

Boss Xiao stood aside and said: "I didn't know Captain Hubbard was an emotional person before."

"There are some things I didn't have time to say." Hubbard half-knelt on the ground and slowly closed the lid of the box. The knuckles of the fingers holding the lid turned white. After a long time, he stood up again.

Boss Xiao crossed his arms and said: "The doll is maintained every two months, and it can be sent to you at that time. If there are any new skills, I will use them again."

Hubbard said: "Shaw Scott never did money-losing business."

Boss Xiao laughed happily.

"Captain Hubbard has great powers, but I can't," he said.

Hubbard: "What do you want?"

"I received a big order a few days ago. It's hard to find that person's data. I want to ask you for help."

Hubbard: "Is there any data that Boss Xiao can't get?"

Boss Xiao grinned, raised his arm, and made a shooting gesture towards Hubbard.

Hubbard curled his lips and smiled, turned around, picked up the handle of the box, and walked to the door.

"Please wait a moment." An Zhe suddenly said.

Hubbard looked back.

Anzhe walked quickly to him, unbuttoned the first button of his shirt, and took out the bullet casing hanging from his neck.

"Sir," he said, "do you know where this is from?"

Hubbard didn't say anything. He reached out and picked up the brass-colored cartridge case, turned it at an angle, and looked at it in the light.

Anzhe's heart was beating loudly.

"The supply depot and the black market do not have this type of model." After a minute, Hubbard let go and the cartridge case fell back to An Zhe's chest. He turned and left, leaving only one sentence.

"Military stuff."

His back gradually walked away. An Zhe reached out to his chest, holding the bullet casing, slightly lost in thought.

In the silent room, Boss Xiao laughed.

"Hubbard said it was for the military, so it must be," he closed the door, squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "Why, have you slept with someone from the military? Ducey's business is really big."

An Zhe slowly shook his head.

What should he do if it's something from the military?

"Tsk," said Boss Xiao, "have you lost your soul too?"

An Zhe said: "I want to find its owner."

Boss Xiao: "Why, this person didn't give you money?"

An Zhe felt that Boss Xiao's thinking was very wrong.

He argued: "No."

"If it's something from the military, people in the military will definitely be able to recognize the model number. I'll teach you a way." Boss Xiao said earnestly.

An Zhe: "What can I do?"

Boss Xiao: "You can't reach the main city and the wild areas. The outer city, the city defense station, and the trial court are all the territory of the military. You can go there to hang out in the middle of the night and hook up with someone. Although the military has strict control, it is inevitable

There are morally corrupt people.”

An Zhe: "..."

He thought for a while and then asked: "Who in the military would go to the wild?"

Boss Xiao flicked his forehead: "Who do you think drew the map in the wild?"

The beating hurt, and An Zhe bit his lip.

"I'm still aggrieved." Boss Xiao said: "Even the judge is away from the base for half a year every year. What do you think? All members of the military go outside."

An Zhe was speechless and lowered his head to continue planting his eyebrows. He realized that he might have to stay at the base for a long time.

The day of eyebrow transplantation was over. Boss Xiao was very satisfied and left Anzhe to get off work.

An Zhe wanted to drink the potato soup at the door of the first floor of the black market. Today was his third day working for Boss Xiao. Boss Xiao paid one month's salary in advance, and there was now 60 in his ID card.

But when he got to the ground floor, he felt that the atmosphere was obviously not right. The bustle of the past on the ground floor was gone, people looked in a hurry, and there were few people at the exit.

He was a little confused, but the temptation brought by the potato soup was great-he went over anyway.

Just when he was about to approach the potato soup, Anzhe's body suddenly paused.

He remained still for a second, turned around, and went back to where he was.

"Come back." A cold voice came.

Anzhe thought he was unlucky, turned around again, walked a few steps forward, and came to the judge at the door.

The judge did not come alone, there were three judges with simple clothes and young facial features.

——He ran into the Inquisition's daily patrol in the city.

Just listen to Lu H calmly say: "The body movements are stiff and the movements are evasive. One point will be scored."

The young judge behind him was holding a pen and paper. Following his words, he looked at An Zhe carefully, then lowered his head and scribbled something down on the paper.

An Zhe looked at them, but met Lu H's gaze, and he immediately looked away.

"Avoiding eyes, one point." Lu H's tone did not change at all, and the young judge behind him continued to record.

An Zhe felt that this scene looked familiar. He thought about it and confirmed that the Lord Judge was not simply performing patrol duties. He was bringing in new people, just like Boss Xiao brought up his apprentices. But Lu H was obviously not as good at teaching as Boss Xiao.

The teaching was very blunt.

He waits for the next deduction.

But he found that although Lu H's teaching was very blunt, his attitude could not be considered perfunctory. He began to ask questions: "The result?"

"Go back to the colonel." The young judge said: "Based on all indicators, the person under trial belongs to human beings."

"The reason for the abnormal indication?"

"Afraid of you."
