Under One Person, Engage in Black Technology

Chapter 29 Meeting
A sunny Thursday after building the Ark Reactor.

At this moment, Liu Ke is listening to Professor Deng's class with his classmates.

The old professor had been speaking for a long time and was thirsty, so he announced a break. Liu Ke also breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to take a break.

But before he even entered the restroom, he received a call from the company's landline.

"Hello, who are you?"

The person on the other end of the line was Mr. Xu San. He said, "Liu Ke? The special subsidy for aliens has been transferred to the bank card you provided."

"Oh! Wait a minute, that's right, I'm in. Thank you to the company. I'm sorry to cause trouble to the company."

While Liu Ke was looking at his bank card information, Xu San took a sip of coffee and said slowly, "Also, there's one more thing."

"You said it, you said it."

"If possible, please come to the company tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. There is a meeting involving a special operation that requires your participation."

"Meeting? Um, I'm afraid not tomorrow, I have a lot of classes... maybe the day after tomorrow. Saturday is fine."

The sound of shuffling papers came over the phone. After a while, Xu San's voice came over: "Saturday then."

"Um, are there any special requirements? Do I need to wear a uniform or something?"

"No. Except for some special missions, the company has no strict dress code requirements."

"Got it. Uh, okay. Got it."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Ke was a little confused and sent a WeChat message to Er Zhuang in his mind.

Liu Ke: Is there any big event happening in the company recently? Something that even a figurehead like me should attend?
Er Zhuang: No? I haven’t heard of it at all.

Liu Ke: Okay, that’s okay.

Er Zhuang: This weekend... can you make a model of Hainan? (●''●)
Liu Ke: [ok]
Liu Ke: No. I almost forgot. I have to go to the company this weekend, but I don’t know what I’m going to do.

Erzhuang: (.︿.)
Liu Ke: Uh... I'll try to find time [sweat]
Erzhuang: [Yeah], I went to work too, and I’ve been pretty busy lately.

----------------

On Saturday, Liu Ke got up early. After washing up, he checked the time and found that there was still plenty of time.

Mr. Xu San sent Liu Ke a text message with the meeting schedule last night. The meeting time marked in the text message was 10:30 am.

Since others had taken the trouble to remind him, there was no reason for Liu Ke to be late. He took a ride and set off at nine o'clock, arriving well in advance.

When we arrived at the company branch, we found that the entrance was quite crowded. Express trucks were driving into the warehouse one after another. The level of busyness was completely different from the last time we came back.

“There’s no shopping festival recently?”

Muttering something, Liu Ke put on the courier jacket that was distributed everywhere in his backpack, and then walked through the door inside.

The security guard was still soundly sleeping this time, showing no sense of professionalism at all.

Liu Ke wanted to say this when he came last time: this kind of security is a bit too "makeshift".

But, then again, he could understand the sloppy security atmosphere.

Just look at this express delivery center, all the people coming in and out to work are strangers.

Just like the Public Security Bureau is not afraid of thieves, with such configurations in place everywhere, why would they be afraid of ordinary thieves?
Even if we really encounter unusual ones, such as unusual bandits, or those with great skills and courage, what good will it do to send a diligent security guard here?

Therefore, the security guards at the entrance of Nadutong Company are no different from the security guards at the entrance of ordinary residential communities.

There is no need to defend against those who are incompetent, and it is impossible to defend against those who are capable. Putting someone in the security booth is purely a gesture.

After a few complaints in his mind, he stopped worrying about the company. Liu Ke glanced at the meeting information on his phone, then looked at the signboard on the first floor. After turning a few corners, he walked up to the audiovisual conference room on the third floor.

He knocked on the door and was told to come in. He turned the doorknob and walked in. Unlike the first time he came here, when the 'BOSS' direct recruitment room was being held, this time the meeting room was more business-like.

As soon as you enter, there is only a long white table. Three people are sitting on one side of the table: Xu San, Xu Si, and Feng Baobao.

Seeing that the three "big bosses" in the company also noticed him, Liu Ke smiled sociably, then pretended to hold a black-covered notebook and sat on the right side of Feng Baobao according to the order.

As soon as he sat down, he felt in his trouser pocket and found that he didn't have a pen...

It's okay... just use your brain to remember it.

After Liu Ke sat down, Xu San had no intention of waiting for anyone. He used his telekinesis to lock the door of the conference room and then delivered a stack of documents to Liu Ke, Xu Si and Feng Baobao.

"Everyone is here, let's get started. This is the advance intelligence."

It is not difficult to see from this that this meeting was chaired by Xu San.

But...are they all here?

Liu Ke looked around and narrowed his eyes.

There are only 4 of us including myself. Isn’t the number of participants a bit too small?
As the saying goes, small meetings determine big things, while large meetings handle small matters. This "small team" meeting was clearly about discussing some important matters.

But...Xu San, Xu Si and Feng Baobao are all capable men in the North China region of Nadutong. They can be said to be the elite among the elite, so there is no problem for them to attend the meeting.

But me? Is that okay too? You really don't treat me, a figurehead, as an outsider?

Liu Ke had some doubts in his mind, so he raised his hand.

Seeing Xu San looking over, Liu Ke pointed at himself, then circled his finger around and asked, "Are we the only ones there?"

Xu Si on the opposite side laughed suddenly, then continued to lean back in his chair and looked up at the ceiling.

"Yes, tentatively, your group of three will be conducting a covert operation. As for the company's main force, I will be in charge once the operation begins."

Even now, Liu Ke still doesn't know what this meeting is about...

but……

Huh? Covert action? Me?

No, brother... Why did you call me to this secret operation? I'm just a figurehead. Do I really have the qualifications to participate in this meeting?

However, based on his sociable habits, Liu Ke did not say anything more.

This... 2000 yuan subsidy is not easy to get.

But Mr. Xu San clearly understood what Liu Ke meant by this expression. After exchanging a glance with Xu Si, he said meaningfully, "Remember the cold storage incident? The bald guy who crashed his Tesla into the wall was called Yu Haiheng. He was a Quan Xing."

"And the target of our operation this time is also Quan Xing."

After saying this, Mr. Xu San adjusted his glasses, paused, and continued, "We believe this operation may reveal clues related to the cold storage incident, so we've called you along."

"This operation is indeed very risky. If you don't want to participate, you don't have to be forced, and you don't have to feel burdened. You can leave now."

That bald guy... Yes, his presence was so low that I almost forgot about him.

But, are there risks?

Liu Ke's eyes froze, as if he had thought of something, and his expression instantly became firm.

He finally said, "I'll join."

Mr. Xu San, who received a positive answer, frowned slightly, but calmed down the next moment.

Then he nodded, walked to the corner of the conference room, and dragged over a projector.
