I avoided everyone's gaze and murmured, "Yes." Then, I pointed at the pile of things on the coffee table. The three of them looked at the coffee table, and Wood stretched out his finger to poke it.
He poked it and said, "Well, it looks like it is."
Qiu Yue's face turned from red to white, and then from white to red. She pointed at my nose and shouted loudly with a trembling voice: "Are you, are you having water in your brain? Are you crazy? Are you a pig? Are you?
, you..." Qiu Yue was so angry that she stamped her feet, not knowing what else to curse to relieve her anger.
Chiyoko looked at Qiu Yue's furious look, then looked at me, burst out laughing: "Are you guys still a little confused because you just came back? Have you forgotten that we still have a pancake?"
If you accidentally break this, it doesn’t matter!”
When Qiu Yue heard what Chiyoko said, she was stunned for a moment, and then continued to curse loudly: "A mistake is a mistake, and he must bear the blame." As he said that, he glared at me fiercely.
Wood looked at me and asked, "What about the other pancake? Have you seen it?"
I looked up at Wood and whispered, "No, I didn't see it. I found this pancake accidentally."
Wood turned to Qiu Yue and asked, "Do you know where the other pancakes were sent?"
Qiu Yue shook her head and replied: "When we left, I asked Brother Gang, and he said that he was looking for a suitable place to put the frequency mark, but he hadn't decided yet. I really didn't expect that this wasteful thing would be ruined. You
When can you not eat that bite of food, are you so greedy?" As she spoke, Qiu Yue became angry again, and she reached out to hit her.
I was in the wrong, so I didn’t plan to hide at all, so I just sat there and stretched my neck for her to hit. Chiyoko on the side moved between me and Qiu Yue, blocking me and saying: "Oh! Didn’t I tell you, there is another one.
Where is the pancake? Why do you want to beat him again? Really."
Qiu Yue was already angry. Seeing that Chiyoko was still protecting me unprincipled, she became even more angry. She blurted out: "What? Are you still heartbroken? We took such a big risk to get back the things.
To be destroyed like this is simply a crime, and beating him is considered a light crime."
"What else?" Chiyoko's voice suddenly turned cold, and she looked straight at Qiu Yue.
Qiu Yue was startled by Chiyoko's tone and expression, paused, and replied coldly: "That's an internal matter within our club, so you don't need to worry about it."
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense. After the two of them argued, I began to realize the seriousness of the problem. I stood up and asked Wood: "If similar things happen in the sub-world, how do you usually deal with it?"
"
Wood didn't think twice and just gave two words: "Annihilation."
I started sweating immediately and felt a little dizzy. Although Wood said that in the sub-realm, it would be annihilated, but that would not be the case here in the New Territory. However, the seriousness of the matter was far beyond my imagination.
With a crash, the rolling shutter door of the teahouse opened, and two figures stood at the door. It turned out to be Mr. Qin and Brother Gang.
Qiu Yue immediately ran over, while I stood there blankly, feeling so cold in my heart, waiting for a new storm to come.
Brother Gang turned around and pulled down the rolling shutter door. Qiu Yue followed Mr. Qin without saying a word. Mr. Qin walked towards us with a smile on his face, stretched out his hand and said to Wood: "Mr. Wood, thank you very much for your hard work.
Bring the child back safely."
Wood stretched out his hand, held it with Mr. Qin's, shook it gently a few times, and replied: "Mr. Qin, you are too polite. This is what I should do. However, something has happened now."
"Gangzi and I have monitored that something is coming, a data packet and two things. I have received the data packet, but there is one thing that has been touched just now. Is this the situation you are referring to?" Mr. Qin
Asked calmly.
Hearing what Mr. Qin said, I couldn't help but lower my head. I really can't hide anything from Mr. Qin.
Wood nodded and said: "Yes, I think you should also know. The touched thing is now here." After speaking, Wood pointed to the lump of something on the coffee table that had begun to harden.
Brother Gang bent down, looked at it, and asked, "What was this supposed to be?"
Wood didn't answer but looked at me, and I replied with shame on my face: "This was originally a pancake with a mixing box proportions molded inside. But I chewed it as a snack."
My voice became lower and lower. Qiu Yue on the side looked at Mr. Qin nervously. Although she scolded me so much just now, it was obvious at this moment that she was still worried about me.
Chiyoko interrupted and said: "There is another pancake that was sent back. It doesn't matter if this one is broken."
Brother Gang straightened up and ignored Chiyoko's words. Seeing that I didn't say anything, he turned to Mr. Qin. Mr. Qin frowned, just waved his hand and said to us: "Then follow me upstairs. The other one will teleport to
It’s my office, let’s go take a look.”
I walked at the back, stepped heavily on the stairs, and secretly prayed in my heart: I hope the cake is intact, Amitabha, Amitabha.
Just like that, we entered Mr. Qin's office. I stood at the door and watched from a distance, not daring to come near, for fear that something stupid would happen to me again.
Brother Gang carefully opened the closet behind the desk. I stretched my neck and looked over. I saw a pancake inside, nicely placed inside. It looked so comforting. I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and thought: Finally, it’s okay.
No bad luck at home.
The expressions of Qiu Yue and Chiyoko also relaxed. Qiu Yue turned back and pointed at me, meaning, you are lucky.
Brother Gang looked back at Mr. Qin, who waved his hand and said, "Don't touch it yet. You can bring the scanner over and scan the internal structure directly."
Mr. Qin was still cautious, I praised him in my heart.
Just when Brother Gang went to get the scanner, the pancakes in the cupboard changed. Two-thirds of the pancakes suddenly began to collapse and turned into powder in an instant. The remaining one-third was still crumbling.
The situation happened like a landslide, catching people off guard.
My heart was completely cold, and I looked at everything in front of me helplessly, "Quick, Gangzi, scan quickly." Mr. Qin ordered Yuchi Gang urgently.
Brother Gang quickly operated the scanner and began to scan the remaining third, while the landslide in the cupboard continued slowly until it completely turned into a pile of powder. And my heart also became shattered.
.
Except for Mr. Qin and Wood, everyone present was stunned. Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Mr. Qin sighed softly and asked Yuchigang: "How many did you scan?"
Brother Gang looked at the scanner data and replied: "About one-fifth."
"It's better than nothing." Mr. Qin said to himself.
Wood asked: "Mr. Qin, is the data you received complete?"
Mr. Qin looked at Wood and said, "It's incomplete. I've asked someone to help restore it. I don't know how far it can be restored."
Wood looked at the pile of powder in the cupboard and said: "Anyway, we have gained something this time. Let's talk about the rest next time when we have the opportunity."
Mr. Qin nodded and said, "It seems this is the only way."
I secretly wondered: Why did this pancake turn into powder? The pancake that was eaten just now was obviously still a little hard, so why was this pancake so weak?
"Okay, that's it. Everyone has worked hard. Let's go back and have a rest. We'll talk about work tomorrow." Mr. Qin turned around and said to everyone.
But the severe criticism I expected did not come as expected, which made me even more uneasy. So, I walked up to Mr. Qin, lowered my head, and whispered: "Mr. Qin, I'm sorry, it's all my fault..."
"Hey! Stop talking now. Go home and have a good rest. Come directly to my office after work tomorrow. I have something to tell you." Mr. Qin said to me.
I blushed, nodded, and followed everyone down the stairs.
At the entrance of the teahouse, Mr. Qin and Brother Gang had already got in the car and left. Before getting in the car, Mr. Qin told Qiu Yue to drive Chiyoko and Wood to the hotel.
So, Qiu Yue went to pick up the car, and I stood at the door of the teahouse, planning to take a taxi home. Qiu Yue drove the car over, let Wood and Chiyoko get into the car, and said to me: "You can get in the car too, and I will take them there."
After finishing them, I will send you home."
I shook my head and said, "Don't bother. My home is not far from here anyway. I can just take a taxi back, and you can go back and have a rest early."
"Okay, then I won't see you off. I'll see you tomorrow." Qiu Yue said while starting the car.
I waved goodbye to them and looked at the red taillights of the car. I felt melancholy and my heart was full of guilt. It was me, it was me, who ruined what was originally a complete success and made what everyone had risked their lives to gain.
It's all for nothing, I'm really too embarrassed to see anyone.
The next day, Mr. Qin and I sat across from each other in Mr. Qin’s office, as if I had just come to the company for an interview. Mr. Qin said straight to the point: “Xiao Wan, this matter is indeed very serious.
The operation used a lot of resources and manpower, and even activated Wood in advance, but it failed. As the planner of this operation and the head of the society, I have to explain to the joint committee."
I stood up and said solemnly to Mr. Qin: "Mr. Qin, I know that I have caused a big disaster this time. I am willing to bear all the responsibilities and cannot let you suffer on my behalf."
President Qin waved his hand and said: "For you, we can't talk about this yet. As for the explanation of the joint meeting, I will naturally handle it. However, you are right about one thing. You cannot be completely exempt from liability."
At this point, Mr. Qin stopped and looked at me.
I met his gaze and looked over. I will never shirk my responsibility.
Mr. Qin continued: "From now on, you can no longer stay in our club, and you will no longer be able to be absorbed by any club in the future."
I was speechless for a while, and my head felt dizzy. Although I have not been here for a long time, the things I have experienced and the people I have come into contact with during this period are, for me, subversive experiences and perceptions.
And all of this is going to come to an abrupt end because of a pancake, just like the scene when I just came to the club for an interview, does it end like this without a clue?
I can't believe that all this is true, just like I couldn't believe that there are actually three worlds on this earth. But all of this really happened, and I can't help but believe it, although I still ask questions repeatedly in my heart.
