"Actually, the detective agencies run by the protagonists in movies and anime are also like this."
Although he was slightly disappointed for a moment, Meng Bochao quickly regained his composure and walked to the store with Yang Bowen.
At this moment, the rolling shutter door of the store has been closed, revealing another layer of translucent sliding glass door inside. You can vaguely see people busy inside.
"Uncle Yang, are there any other seniors here?"
Meng Bochao turned his head curiously and asked Yang Bowen.
"This is not an ordinary senior, this is called a boss lady."
Yang Bowen grinned.
"Uncle Yang, you are talking nonsense again."
Tang Youxin, who was cleaning, heard Yang Bowen's words and let out a blushing look.
While he was looking at Yang Bowen, his eyes naturally fell behind him. He couldn't help but show slight disappointment when he didn't find another familiar figure. Finally, he moved his eyes to, or rather noticed, Meng Bochao.
"Haha, don't worry, Youxin, the boss will definitely come today."
How could Yang Bowen not understand what she was thinking? He laughed heartily and then introduced: "This is the new employee the boss hired yesterday, named Meng Bochao."
"Hello, boss lady."
Meng Bochao couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Tang Youxin for the first time, but after Uncle Yang's 'reminder' just now, he didn't dare to look more, and he didn't dare to have any unnecessary thoughts, so he shouted honestly
Boss lady.
"Hello."
Yang Bowen, who often got along with her, was fine. Faced with Meng Bochao, a stranger whom she met for the first time, Tang Youxin couldn't let go. She just said hello with a slightly uncomfortable jaw, and didn't even bother to refute the title of boss lady.
"What are you talking about?"
It was said that Cao Cao had arrived. Not long after the three of them entered the door, Xia Xu also walked over with A Tuo in hand.
"Woof!"
As soon as Xia Xu let go of the leash, Atuo ran towards Tang Youxin, wagging his tail enthusiastically.
Xiao Baihua's appearance seems to not only attract people, but even small animals such as cats and dogs have a natural affection for her. With the existence of Xia Xu's relationship, Atuo is particularly close to Xiao Baihua.
"Atuo, good morning."
Tang Youxin also squatted down after Atuo ran over, and her small white hands gently and slowly stroked the hair on Atuo's back.
She was a little scared when she first met Atuo, but after Xia Xu brought her up close for a while, the two became extremely harmonious.
The morning sun was rising, and a ray of sunlight shone through the glass door, which happened to shine on Xiao Baihua, who was already wearing a white dress. A little behind her was a clear-cut shadow and a little light in the room.
The childish face, the peaceful appearance of squatting down and touching Atuo quietly, combined with the right light at this time, are like a beautiful picture, pulling people into a peaceful and leisurely Anran mood.
Xia Xu felt like something had shot him in the heart.
"I only care about Atuo and don't even say good morning to me."
Xia Xu pretended to be sour and approached.
"Good morning."
Tang Youxin raised her head very naturally and said "Good morning".
"I think it's nicer to say good morning."
Xia Xu said with a smile.
The little white flower said obediently: "Good morning."
"It does sound much better."
Xia Xu smiled happily, and was so intimidated by the invisible cuteness of the little white flower that she wanted to bully him severely.
Fortunately, there were two outsiders, Yang Bowen and Meng Bochao, present. He didn't have the habit of showing off in front of others, so he quickly gave up and talked about business.
"Lao Yang, the main reason I came here today is to arrange things about Bo Chao. I should have told you about his father, right?"
Xia Xu first approached Yang Bowen, and Meng Bochao was also sitting next to him.
"Yes, I said it."
Yang Bowen nodded slightly.
"Then just be more careful next time. While keeping an eye on Griffin Jones, take the time to work with him to investigate the culprit. It shouldn't be too much trouble. If you need money or people, you can just tell me directly."
Xia Xu nodded and ordered, and at the same time looked at Meng Bochao: "Bochao, you should move to another house in the next few days. Your neighbor next door has provoked a top professional killer, and there may also be a special force involved later. You continue to live here.
There is a high probability of being involved in some high-risk events."
Now that Meng Bochao has been recruited, it would be unwise to let him stay next door to Griffin Jones. Taking super brain medicine will greatly enhance a person's information retrieval ability, which includes abilities such as observation.
of.
Coupled with the acceleration of thinking, even an ordinary person can become a top detective, psychological analyst, etc. when the brain is overclocked. If Meng Bochao stays there, it will be easy for him to see the flaws or seize the clues.
"next door?"
Meng Bochao suddenly understood after hearing Xia Xu's words.
It seems that Uncle Yang and the boss originally went for the gringo next door, but ended up being targeted first after hacking into the traffic management system, and suffered this 'unexpected disaster'.
How big of a crime must the foreigner have committed before he is targeted by the boss? There are also professional killers and so-called special forces. Although it is not clear what is special, looking at the serious and dignified look of the boss, it is obvious that he is not a simple thing.
Meng Bochao felt a little shuddered when he thought that he was living next to such a time bomb during this period. He quickly said: "Okay boss, it's the same wherever I live. I can move at any time."
"Yeah, okay."
Xia Xu nodded slightly and continued: "From today on, you will officially join our consulting company. I have something I need to leave to you."
"Guaranteed to complete the task."
Meng Bochao looked solemn for a moment and saluted.
Is this about to start the first mission?
not sure what it is.
Invade a company? Organization? Or investigate and monitor some special persons?
"Actually, it's not a task. I just want you to do me a small personal favor. Of course, the bonus will not be lost to you."
Xia Xu smiled hoarsely and took out a silver metal object the size of a football from the baggage he carried with him.
"ah!"
"this……"
As soon as this thing was taken out, several people were startled. Little Baihua, who was standing behind Xia Xu on tiptoes and looking curiously, exclaimed in fright. Meng Bochao and Yang Bowen also instinctively shrank back.
No one else, because at first glance what Xia Xu took out was a ferocious silver centipede, a centipede as thick as a human arm, curled up into a ball.
Normally, a centipede as small as the thickness of a pinky finger can make people tremble with fear. It is strange that it is not scary when such a thing that is more than a hundred times larger is taken out at first sight.
"Don't be nervous, it's fake."
When Xia Xu heard the sound, he quickly glanced at Xiao Baihua, and after confirming that he had not fallen, he breathed a sigh of relief and explained to Meng Bochao and the others.
In fact, the three of them had already seen clearly what he was holding.
The centipede does indeed look like a centipede, but it is actually a mechanical creation made of pure metal.
