"Starlight, how about the Super Seven? What kind of people are the people of the motherland?"
In the park, Xingguang sat under an apple tree with her legs curled up, listening to her mother's somewhat excited questions on the other end of the phone.
"I... my motherland is very busy, I haven't seen him yet, but Deep Sea..." Starlight took a deep breath, her eyes a little red: "Mom, I have something to tell you..."
"Oh, by the way, Starlight, you know, I played mahjong with Mrs. Patty last night. She used to keep talking about his daughter being in medical school, but now, she doesn't dare to say a word."
The mother’s tone was cheerful and excited:
"Do you know why? Because you became one of the Super Seven yesterday! Hahaha..."
Listening to the mother's proud tone on the other end, Xingguang swallowed. Thousands of words came to her lips, but she couldn't say anything.
"By the way, what did you want to say just now?"
"No...it's nothing. Everything is fine, mom." Xingguang choked with sobs: "Mom, I'm going to die. You know...I'm very busy."
With that said, she didn't even wait for her mother to reply and hung up the phone directly.
Behind the apple tree, Cao Gui bit into his sandwich and looked over curiously. Sure enough, it was Starlight, the new member of the Super Seven.
Although he didn't express his feelings, his senses still listened to all the phone calls.
Although Cao Gui didn't know what happened, the girl seemed to have been treated unfairly, and it was also related to the deep sea.
Can that kind of weakling bully others? No way, right?
However, to Cao Gui's surprise, Xingguang slowly lowered his head, rested his forehead on his knees, and began to sob softly, with choking sounds slowly coming out.
Cao Gui frowned. It seems that this deep sea is not a good thing. Now only Queen Maeve, Black, and the unknown people of the motherland are left.
After thinking about it, Cao Gui took out another sandwich lying next to him and handed it over:
"Uh... hello, are you hungry? Do you want a sandwich?"
Hearing the voice in his ear, Xingguang raised his head and looked at the sandwich in front of him with red eyes. He was a little confused. What's the point of seeing a girl crying and giving away a sandwich?
Cao Gui shrugged: "Well... people will be in a bad mood when they are hungry. Moreover, the sugar in the sandwich will promote the release of dopamine and make you feel better."
"Don't lie to me, the sandwich is all starch, not glucose and fructose. It has no sweetness and cannot promote the release of dopamine."
"So, do you want to eat?" Cao Gui asked quietly.
"……eat."
Xingguang grabbed the sandwich in Cao Gui's hand and bit it viciously.
"You seem to be in a bad mood. Are you not going well at work?" Cao Gui asked casually, biting into his sandwich, and brought the topic to the Super Seven.
Approaching Xingguang, Cao Gui not only wanted to comfort her, but the most important thing was to know the movements of those people from him.
In this world, Cao Gui's S.H.I.E.L.D. authority and FBI authority are all useless. Cao Gui doesn't even have a driver's license to represent his identity.
It can be said that for all his strength and money, Cao Gui has nothing. It would be best if he could know the movements of the Super Seven through starlight.
"It's not...well, it's definitely not going well...it doesn't count." Xingguang said depressedly:
"I have taught the people who bullied me a lesson, mainly because... this job is different from what I imagined, and the colleagues I admire are also different from what I thought, or even completely opposite."
Cao Gui swallowed the sandwich in his mouth and roughly understood that this girl may have worshiped superheroes since she was a child. However, when she became one and joined one day, she realized that superheroes are not great and upright, but rather perverted and evil.
To put it simply, the character of the idol that this girl was pursuing collapsed, and it collapsed in front of her, which had a huge impact on her.
"Then do you like this job?" Cao Gui asked.
"I like it." Xingguang said solemnly: "I have been preparing for this job since I was born."
Cao Gui shrugged: "In that case, just overcome the factors that make you sad and continue your work."
"Your way of comforting people is really extraordinary." Xingguang's head was full of black lines.
"Otherwise?" Cao Gui said nonchalantly: "I advise you to give up this job?"
Starlight: "..."
Is this a man who cares about being alone?
"Ahem... Although your comfort is not good, I still thank you very much." Xingguang smiled and said: "Thank you, my name is Annie."
"Cao Gui." Cao Gui said, picked up a bottle of water and unscrewed the cap with force.
"Chinese people?" Xingguang took another bottle and opened it easily.
"OK."
"I heard that people in China know Kung Fu, is it true?" Xingguang raised his head and took a sip of water, tilted his head and asked curiously.
"Yes, I can too." Cao Gui immediately nodded in agreement. If he had to take action, Cao Gui would use this as an excuse.
"Then you definitely won't." Xingguang immediately smiled.
"Oh why?"
"Because people in Bruce Lee or Jack Cheng movies always say, 'A little bit, I only know a little bit, but I can't hit people.'" Starlight said seriously, and pinched her fingers, putting her thumb and index finger together,
Create a small space of about one centimeter.
Cao Gui's head is full of black lines. Is this fixed impression good or bad?
"Okay, as long as you're happy." Cao Gui spread his hands helplessly.
"Hahaha..." Xingguang laughed: "You are still very interesting."
Jingle bell bell~
At this time, Xingguang's cell phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a call from the company.
"Sorry, I have to leave." Xingguang said apologetically.
"Well, goodbye." Cao Gui drank some water and said with a smile.
"Bye~"
Watching her back, Cao Gui touched his chin and muttered, this girl is quite good. If we create a chance to meet next time, we should be able to talk about specific things. Unfortunately, there is no chance to install a bug or something.
…
Water Tower, inside the Chaoying Conference Hall.
When Starlight arrived, she found that everyone had arrived, except for the transparent man, who had Ms. Stillwell sitting in his seat.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's start talking." The motherland man said from the main seat.
"The first thing is that Transparent Man is missing and his whereabouts are unknown. Black and I, as well as Deep Sea, are definitely missing." The first words of the motherland scared the six superheroes present.
Jump
Xingguang was even more shocked. It was just her first day at work, and something like this happened.
"Sometimes, no news is also good news. The search continues, and this matter is left to Deep Sea." Madeleine said: "In the next period of time, your endorsements and performances have been cancelled."
"Oh...Okay, okay..." Shenhai didn't dare to refute.
"Besides, don't tell anyone about this matter." Madeline said:
"We, Walt, are seeking superheroes to be stationed in the Ministry of Defense. Although the vote has been successful, it has not been officially determined. The disappearance of Transparent Man will affect this matter."
The people from the motherland nodded when they heard this and said: "The second thing is, after our investigation, we can probably confirm that the suspect is an Asian."
"He appeared in the same place as the Transparent Man, but no one could find him. He even made up a lie that he and the locomotive were good friends."
Asian?
Xingguang frowned, thinking of Cao Gui whom he had just met.
But soon, Xingguang suppressed this thought. It couldn't be him. He couldn't even twist the bottle cap. He looked... so weak.
