Nightcrawler: 20 Years of Peaceful Demons

Chapter 193 Inside the Department of Secrets
Although I don't have any cases on me, since I have filed a case with the 419 office, if I leave, I will still be restricted.

But this was just a formality. The man told me to wait a moment. After he called and consulted his superiors, he brought a discharge notice and asked me to sign here. Basically, there was no problem.

I am still very grateful for the staff below. I chatted with them for a while before leaving.

Then Ma Yi'ao took me away and went out to take a taxi.

He has studied in Yanjing for many years, and has many teachers, classmates, and friends, but he has no time to get together at the moment, so he just took me to visit a few elders.

I followed Ma Yi'ao and visited around, and I feel that I have gained a lot of knowledge.

However, although some of these elders have great reputations, some have advanced cultivation bases, and some have high positions and positions, but when he mentioned this training activity, which is the so-called "National First Senior Seminar for Folk Practitioners", , all expressed helplessness.

Some people said they hadn’t heard of it, and some people had heard of it, but they also said that this class is for the great gods of the folks all over the country. The above attaches great importance to this, and allocated a lot of money as a special fund. Many people heard the news , One after another wanted to stuff the children of their own family's younger generations into it, so the number of places was very limited, because too many people were staring at it, and the person in charge of this matter was very cautious and would not let go easily.

Under such circumstances, the number of places in each class is the same as the quota for studying abroad in the early years, so that no one dares to pat his chest and say that Ma Yi'ao can go in.

After walking around for a while, I just realized that for such a sought-after spot, Su Lie actually agreed to leave me half a month, he really thinks highly of me.

I could feel more and more that old man Bai's status in that day's secret office was really high.

Besides, the biggest possibility is that my bloodline, "Lingming Stone Monkey", may no longer be a secret.

It's not that there are no experts in the Tianji Department. If old man Bai doesn't say it, others may not be able to see it.

And they also have materials transferred from the Southern Province, which can be referred to.

At noon the next day, Ma Yi'ao and I went to Hecheng Residence. The proprietress Liu Na saw me, she was a little surprised, and she said to me with a somewhat reproachful tone: "You didn't say anything when you left. Myolie and I went to the hospital in the morning, but the people in the hospital didn't know where you went, and they didn't have your contact information, which made us all panic to death."

I hurriedly apologized, and then handed a jar of Heart Eater honey that Thomas brought to her.

When the two of them were chatting, a fat man came over to me, giggled at me, and said, "Chef, I didn't expect you to be here? Oh, hurry up and get me a plate of mutton fried rice, I'm so hungry Yes. Although the old picture is pretty good, compared with your craftsmanship, it still lacks too much meaning..."

I turned around, saw this greasy face, was taken aback for a moment, and said, who are you?

The fat man grinned and said me?Fan Hongbo, don't you remember?I'm a reporter from Metropolis Daily, and I wrote the food column for your shop last time.

I couldn't help laughing at the little fat man's expression of asking for credit.

But he is right. The reason why Hechengju's business is so booming today is not only my craftsmanship and the taste of the food, but also has something to do with his publicity.

I thought about it and said yes, you wait, I will do it for you.

Ma Yi'ao smiled and said, "I remember your craftsmanship is quite good, why don't you give me a copy?"

I smiled, looked at the proprietress next to me, and said, okay?
The proprietress frowned, and said with a smile: "Yes, your friend is a guest of Hecheng Residence. He can eat whatever he wants, and if he eats too much, he can stay and wash the dishes. We have a lot of work in this place now."

It's noon now, and Hechengju is really popular. In just a few minutes, several groups of guests came.

The business is good, the mood of the proprietress is naturally much better, I don't say any more, let Ma Yi'ao talk to the proprietress outside, I enter the kitchen, and say hello to Lao Tu, as well as the newly recruited chefs and helpers.

Seeing me come back, Lao Tu was very happy, he came to hug me regardless of his greasy body.

Then he introduced to others, saying that this is the chief chef of Hechengju. Our main dishes here, except for the lamb scorpion hot pot, are all developed by him. Today, Brother Hou cooks here, and you all learn from it. Point - he is a person with real skills, if you learn a little bit, you can eat half your life...

He called me "Xiaohou" before, but now he calls me "Brother Hou". Unknowingly, but subconsciously, he raised my status.

After a few polite words with the big guys in the kitchen, I came to the stove and started to get busy.

From the ups and downs in the rivers and lakes, I returned to the stove in the kitchen of the small restaurant, and I felt an indescribable relaxation for no reason.

With a kitchen knife in one hand and a frying spoon in the other, I faced the list and started to operate in a smooth manner. Portions of oily and delicious mutton fried rice were poured from the frying pan onto the plate, decorated with vegetables, and flowed out. After a while, Xing'er happily said: He ran into the kitchen and handed over a lot of orders.

When I saw it, I couldn't help being taken aback, and said, why do you want so much mutton fried rice?
Xing'er raised her eyebrows, and said happily: "The guests heard that you are back, and you are cooking for yourself, so they don't care if you are full, so hurry up and order one, so please..."

I was a little speechless, but this feeling of being expected made me very happy.

I was so busy that I didn’t relax until about 02:30 in the afternoon. I was very hungry at first. I smelled the smell of vegetables all afternoon. It was greasy and I lost my appetite. After ordering some mutton soup and making do with it, I went out of the kitchen and saw Ma Yi'ao had finished eating early, lying in front of the cashier, chatting happily with the proprietress.

And the proprietress, who is usually very reserved and guarded, let go of her defenses in front of Ma Yi'ao, laughing like a little girl.

When I came out, she saw that her face was a little red, and she subconsciously wanted to hold back her laughter, but she was teased by Ma Yi'ao with something she didn't know. cute.

I didn't see when Liu Na, the proprietress, was as happy as this moment, and I was in a trance for some reason.

Then, I suddenly figured out what Ma Yi'ao meant when he said that he helped me get rid of old man Bai.

I don't know why, but I felt relieved, and felt a little lost.

Maybe men are just that greedy?

Ma Yi'ao was reluctant to leave Hechengju and the proprietress of Hechengju, but after 03:30 in the afternoon, he left with me because we needed to go to the next place.

This appointment is very important to Ma Yi'ao. According to him, whether he can enter the training camp in Changbai Mountain this time depends on this time.

He made an appointment with someone behind my back, and was a little sneaky. When I asked him, he was evasive and very mysterious.

I couldn't ask anything specific, so I followed him, dazed, to Prince Chun's Mansion in Shichahai.

The outside here is a scenic spot for tourists to browse, bypassing a small door, walking inside, crossing an alley, and came to a unit without a signboard.

Although this unit does not have a signboard, there are armed police guarding the door.

Ma Yi'ao went forward to make contact with people.

After the guard heard about it, he went in and chatted with the people in the guard room. After someone called to confirm with the unit, he came out and said that someone would come and take us there, and let us wait in the guard room first.

I walked into the guard room, and saw that there were actually three people in this not-so-spacious guard room—an old man in his 50s who was reading a newspaper, and a man in his thirties who was eating a big pancake. And a young man in his twenties with a stern face.

These three people were the young man who received us, and they behaved neither humble nor overbearing.

I stood behind Ma Yi'ao and let him approach him.

I was watching with cold eyes, because I found that these three people actually exuded different degrees of cold aura, and these auras seemed to have substance.

The most intense one is the old man reading the newspaper with reading glasses. The color of his aura is only slightly worse than that of the white old man; Ao should be full-bodied.

After so many days of rest and recuperation since the last accident, my eyes are getting stronger and stronger.

It is not an active ability, but the ability to see clearly inadvertently.

And the more deliberate and serious I was, the more blurred my vision became.

But no matter what, these three people are all extremely powerful masters, and it is really scary to use such three masters to guard the goal.

Only then did I understand why Ma Yi'ao was so mysterious and secretive.

We didn't wait for a while, a young man wearing glasses came over, asked Ma Yi'ao a few words, and then led us into the yard.

The space inside is very spacious, we even walked through a small garden, stopped in front of a wing on the west side, and said to us: "The leader is receiving guests, please wait for a few minutes."

Ma Yi'ao nodded, saying yes.

The two stood in the corridor outside the door and waited, because there was a young man called Secretary Xu by his side, even if I was full of doubts, I couldn't ask Ma Yi'ao too much.

After waiting for about 10 minutes, someone finally came out.

Secretary Xu went in to inquire, then came out, and said to Ma Yi'ao: "You have 15 minutes, you can take care of it yourself, okay?"

Ma Yi'ao nodded, saying yes.

Afterwards, he led me into the office, and I followed behind. After entering, I saw a woman with short hair sitting behind an antique sandalwood desk. documents..."

Hearing this, I was shocked and looked at the other party in disbelief.

I know this person.

She is Tian Yingnan, Deputy Director Tian of the Tianji Department, the official fifth-ranked big shot.

The person Ma Yi'ao was looking for turned out to be her?
