Mechanical Pioneer Under One Person

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 I came here, when the 'BOSS' direct recruitment room was 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.

Chapter 30 Four Madmen

"The above is a summary of the recent '4.15 malicious dissemination' incident."

"What I am going to say next is the focus of our meeting."

"It was mentioned before that 'the root of evil' Shen Chong was connected to the malicious spread of the Xing Qi Gong method."

Mr. Xu San took out the projector remote control and pressed it lightly, and Shen Chong's photo appeared on the projected white screen.

"Over the course of several weeks, we 'destroyed' the villages where the martial arts techniques were maliciously spread one by one. As our progress accelerated, we also found Shen Chong's whereabouts."

Then, he pressed the remote control in his hand again, and the content projected on the screen changed.

The content of this PPT is a village map magnified dozens of times, and Shen Chong's photo is "hung" in a village in the upper right part of the map.

"This village is called Wujiagou, and it's located where National Highway 236 meets the Beijing-Tianjin border."

"According to insider intelligence from three days ago, Shen Chong is in this village. Furthermore, he's currently teaching the so-called 'secret technique' to the young people who have recently gathered in the village."

"besides."

The slideshow changed again. This time, accompanied by a burst of flying stars, two more photos appeared, one in color and one in black and white.

The colorful one is a smiling monk with a pale pink face. He has a gentle expression, ears like Buddha, and a slender demeanor. At first glance, he looks like a high-ranking monk.

The other was a middle-aged woman with a graceful and elegant appearance. She was not tall and had a calm expression.

Their identities were also marked on the PPT: the monk was Gao Ning, the "Thunder Smoke Cannon," and the woman was Dou Mei, the "Intestinal Poison." The two were the "Four Crazy Qis" and "Wine."

Xu San used telekinesis to lift the laser pen and used it as a 'teaching stick', pointing it at the monk photo of Gao Ning.

"Three days ago, Gao Ning also appeared in the village and had a conversation with Shen Chong. The content of the conversation is unknown."

"Gao Ning and Dou Mei have always acted together. Although our insider hasn't found any trace of Dou Mei, since Gao Ning showed up in Wujiagou, we have to assume that Dou Mei is also there."

As if knowing that Liu Ke didn't care much about the circle, he added: "These two are quite famous, and their abilities are no secret. If you don't know them, you can check them out on the intranet later."

"Simply put, the four madmen of Quan Xing, namely, wine, sex, money and anger, can each be deceiving and misleading, and we must be extremely vigilant."

After listening to this, Xu Si narrowed his eyes and asked, "Wine, sex, money, and anger, we're short of one of the three. Where's 'Bone Scraper' Xia He?"

Xu San shook his head and said, "This is intelligence from three days ago. Our insider has lost contact with us, so we can't confirm whether Xia He has appeared."

Liu Ke opened his mouth slightly and raised his eyebrows.

Does this mean that the undercover...is gone?

Xu San understood the looks from Liu Ke and Xu Si, but he could only spread his hands to indicate that there was no news for the time being.

Xu Si slumped his arms down on the table, lit a cigarette, and put away the weariness on his face. He said, "I've asked about the higher-ups' opinions. The act of randomly distributing Qigong techniques is extremely bad, and they've instructed us to eliminate the impact as quickly as possible."

Hearing this, Xu San looked up and glanced at Xu Si, frowning.

The two Xu family members seemed to be contemplating the matter, remaining silent. Feng Baobao and Liu Ke were known for their ability to simply follow instructions. Consequently, the conference room fell silent, with only the occasional sound of coffee sipping.

Liu Ke was not idle either. He was using Black Wall to catch up on his lessons in the company's intranet and quickly found information about Gao Ning and Dou Mei.

These two people, one destroys other people's hearts and minds, and the other makes people's wills weak. They are a perfect match among the bad guys, and both of them have area debuffs.
