In the empty corridor, the sound of hurried footsteps in hard-soled shoes echoed in the air. The pale cold light cast the shadow of the visitor on the gray metal floor, as tall and thin as a noodle man. The isolation door in front opened automatically when someone approached.
, showing the office with luxurious interior decoration. The visitor took a deep breath, straightened his collar, approached the explosion-proof glass curtain wall in front of him, and recognized his identity at the access control terminal to pass. The glass that originally seemed to be a single piece opened a gap, and a force field
The generator was temporarily turned off, and a beautiful classical melody flowed out, followed by a refreshing fragrance. However, these could not relax the visitor. He slowed down and walked in uneasily.
Behind the valuable gold-plated desk, the luxurious boss's chair prevented the visitors from seeing the figure of the big man. After encouraging himself three times in his mind, he finally spoke in a respectful voice.
"My lord, my subordinates would like to report to you on the current situation of the 'protagonist'."
After finishing speaking, he kept praying in his heart that his boss would not suddenly find trouble. Although the door is not locked, it usually means that the boss is willing to receive subordinates, but this moody and scary guy has no rules to follow, and maybe he will do it next time.
He was thrown out within seconds.
"Oh? Who is the protagonist? Is there any other protagonist in this world besides me?"
A mature and charming female voice sounded from behind the chair, with a relaxed and comfortable tone. It seemed that the boss was in a good mood today. However, the content of her words was very problematic.
"Lord Leader, the protagonist is just the code name of the target. Of course, you are the only protagonist in the world."
The visitor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said sarcastically.
"Who came up with this code name, those idiots from the Arbitration Committee? I should have thrown them all into the dissolving pool a long time ago!"
The boss's voice became angry, and it was obvious that her mood was not beautiful anymore.
The visitor took out his handkerchief and kept wiping his sweat. The amount of sweat could no longer be borne by just wiping it with his hands. After repeatedly confirming that he had written a suicide note and prepared an escape plan for his family, he resolutely answered the boss
The problem.
"Lord Leader, you chose this codename yourself. Are you too busy and have forgotten it?"
"..."
The music stopped suddenly, and the splendid office fell into a deathly silence. Behind the boss...the virtual image facing him at this time also changed from sunny and sometimes cloudy to cloudy. The visitor's heart "thumped" and he closed the door.
The eyes are ready to die.
"Hmm... I've been busy growing flowers recently, and I did forget that I seemed to have taken a code name like this."
It started to rain in the virtual image, and the white bulbous plants on the grassland swayed in the rain, blooming beautiful flowers. The boss's voice was hesitant, as if he had really forgotten about it.
Fortunately, she didn't take her anger out on others.
"Why don't you remind me? I said this goal is very important, remind me every day not to forget it!"
The boss was angry again, and the visitor's heart was suddenly relieved. Although he faced this kind of life-and-death situation every day at work, he still couldn't suppress the fear in his heart when facing this boss.
After thinking about retiring and going home if this mission was successfully completed, he once again opened his mouth to correct the boss's mistakes.
"Master Chief, you... never said this... What you said before was that you leave everything to us and don't disturb you unless there is something important..."
"..."
In the virtual image, strong winds were blowing, and lightning and thunder were faintly visible in the thick clouds.
"But Sir, what I bring this time is good news! The codename 'Sister' has established a good relationship with the codename 'Protagonist', the codename 'Bing Jing' did not obstruct, but supported the relationship between the two. Codename'
The protagonist' has restored normal social functions and even regained the courage to fight. It is expected that the ability of the codename 'Protagonist' will also be restored soon. Your plan is just around the corner!"
The visitor spoke very fast and reported the situation before the boss spoke. Rather than worrying about being punished by the boss for talking too much, the inexplicable anger was more terrifying to him.
"Oh? This is indeed good news."
The weather in the virtual image quickly changed back to a normal cloudy day, which shows that the boss's mood has improved.
"So this is the reason why you came to see me without bringing snacks? I told you that you must bring snacks when you come to see me. Is your head full of mush?"
The boss changed the subject and brought up something that had nothing to do with the main topic, leaving the guests unprepared.
"First... Sir, my subordinates came in a hurry, so... I'm very sorry..."
The visitor secretly complained in his heart, the boss has never said this! And he actually asked to bring snacks to meet the leader? Do you think this is a date?
"Then get out of here! Come see me in ten minutes with snacks, or you can make experimental materials!"
"Yes! My subordinates will prepare some snacks for you right away!"
The visitor bowed three times and rushed out of the office as if he was running away. While he was glad that he had escaped, he began to worry about how he could get the snacks that the boss liked to eat in ten minutes. You must know that this place is deep.
In a research institution hidden underground, there are no exquisite desserts served in the cafeteria! After racking his brains for 25 seconds, he took out his mobile phone and made a call.
"I am a 'visitor'. Notify the surface guards. Within five minutes, I will get enough snacks to satisfy the leader and deliver them to the core area. Otherwise, I will wait to become a D-class personnel."
After the visitor finished speaking, he hung up the phone, took out a cigarette from his pocket and leaned against the wall. Just as he took out the lighter, he looked up and saw the smoke alarm on the roof, so he had to put it back in his pocket. He took the cigarette and looked at it.
After two seconds, he simply put it to his nostrils and took a deep sniff. After exhaling the non-existent smoke, he just hoped that the pawns could complete this damn task under the threat of death, so that everyone could avoid death. Leader
Although the request is messy and sudden, she can complete it every time if she works hard. Once the task is not completed, the punishment mentioned by the leader will also become a reality. You can doubt whether her mind is normal, but you must not go
Deny her power. This power is not the kind of power that can be obtained by commanding others, but is the real fighting power of a super superpower. It is no exaggeration to say that this
The reason why the research institute, and even this organization, exists is because of the leadership of the leader. Otherwise, the International Superpower Management Committee will never allow such a dangerous and ambitious organization to exist even for one day.
However, this super powerful leader sometimes even forgets his own ambitions. Perhaps for her, conquering the world is not as attractive as a piece of holiday-only cake.
Five minutes later, several frightened guards appeared in front of the visitors. The thick-set men carefully guarded a delicate pink cardboard box, which looked very funny.
"very good."
The visitor said coldly with a straight face, and at the same time he took the carton steadily, turned around and left. In front of these pawns, his intimidation was just like that of the leader to himself. There was no need to thank or praise them, as long as he kept them alive.
The best reward.
Calculating the time, the snacks were presented to the boss at 9 minutes and 30 seconds after the leader spoke. Guests did not dare to advance too much in advance to avoid the boss getting into trouble again.
"My lord, my subordinates have brought snacks to you."
The visitor bent down to hold the pastry box respectfully, even though the boss still had his back turned to him.
"I asked you to buy fried chicken, and you actually brought me snacks?"
"Master Chief, you did say you wanted some snacks just now!"
The visitor felt so miserable~ Why did he end up with such a big boss? It’s okay if he has the air of a bastard and is decisive and decisive, but he still has a problem with his brain, so how can he be this little brother?
"Did I say it? Oh, then let's eat together and put it on the table. But I'm very unhappy that you didn't buy me fried chicken. This year's bonus will be all deducted and used for the activities of the 'step sister'.
You have no objection, right?"
"No, no! The subordinates are happy to accept the punishment from the leader!"
The visitor lowered his head deeply, on the one hand to show humility, and on the other hand to hide his miserable face. As an underground worker, his work is not protected by labor law, even if he is
There is no place to sue for arbitrary salary deductions. So far, not a cent of his salary and bonus this year has been deducted, and he still has to pay back three months' salary. How can a top executive of a secret organization behave like this and not be sad and shed tears?
I feel bitter in my heart, but I dare not say it!
PS: Yes, this is the way I hate to say one thing before I finish talking about another thing.
