Their commission was suspicious.

Interrogations of Penguin Logistics don't even require an interrogation room, because both Penguin Logistics and the police officers know it's just a formality.

Ultimately, it still has to be released.

“You’ve worked hard working overtime… It’s been a really tiring day, because of the natural disaster, we had to temporarily reassign guards from the Lungmen Guard Bureau to the checkpoints to deal with the surge in people trying to enter Lungmen. This has increased the workload of the officers who stayed at the Guard Bureau, and almost everyone has to work overtime… Here, Xin, go order some milk tea, everyone who worked overtime today will get some!” Swire said, turning to the Guard Bureau members following behind her.

While Swire can be stingy when he wants to be, it's simply part of his professional ethics as a businessman.

Money that should be spent can be spent, but don't even think about taking a single penny of money that shouldn't be spent from Swire!

But Ms. Swire is happy to share her good mood and often treats everyone to a meal at her own expense after a hard day's work!

For example, right now.

Because of the sudden natural disaster, everyone in the Lungmen Guard Bureau is working overtime.

What a terrible natural disaster!

"Achoo!" Chen Luo sneezed.

"Okay, okay." After glancing at Chen Luo, the police officer under Swire's command lowered his head and opened the work group to send a statistics table.

Many of the people who accompanied Swire to the checkpoint today were members of the Lungmen Guard Bureau who were not originally required to work at the checkpoint. However, due to the natural disaster, many people wanted to enter the mobile city for refuge, which increased the pressure and forced the Guard Bureau to withdraw its personnel.

Take, for example, the police officer in front of me who had only recently seen Chen Luoyan's spy certificate.

"Oh, speaking of natural disasters, this gentleman is from the Imperial Observatory, responsible for observing natural disasters, and it seems he has been observing this disaster for some time. However, according to his colleague, he is currently on paid leave." The police officer who was originally in charge of interrogating Chen Luo and the others couldn't help but mention Chen Luo when Swire brought up this matter.

"Huh? From the Imperial Observatory? Why are you working with Penguin Logistics?"

You've broken the law, you know that?!

Although it's not nice to say it like this, companies like Penguin Logistics that operate in a gray area are always prone to doing things that test the limits of the Lungmen Guard Bureau.

Fortunately, Swire knows what's important, so it won't specifically target Penguin Logistics.

Walking in the gray area means that it's not impossible to cooperate with the Guard Bureau...

"Just someone I met on the way," Chen Luo said, leaning back more comfortably in the Guard Bureau chair.

"Now that you've discovered it, why aren't you communicating with Lungmen? Didn't you meet them today?"

"The problem is, according to my predictions, this natural disaster won't even reach Lungmen. Come to think of it, I've been working overtime, haven't I? Can you buy me a milk tea?"

“Obviously, no.” Swire shook her head.

After all, Swire wasn't a sucker.

She's just a mascot.

Chapter 1240 Chen Luo: I even held Chen, the child, when she was "little".

"However, if you can provide information about the route of this natural disaster, its affected area, its cause, and the amount of Originium it contains, then I might as well treat you to a drink..." Swire changed the subject.

What Swire just said actually requires Lungmen to send people to investigate.

However, if we can get some clues from Chen Luo, the investigation will definitely be easier.

Although this was not a matter for the Lungmen Guard Bureau, Swire was willing to pay Chen Luo some compensation out of her own pocket as long as it could contribute to the development of Lungmen.

Perhaps because she was kidnapped in Lungmen as a child and then rescued by members of the Lungmen Guard, Swire is always very enthusiastic about building Lungmen.

This is why Swire, whose family is incredibly wealthy, chose to become a senior superintendent.

“Four portions,” Chen Luo said, pointing to his companion.

"And they also need to waive the bail we're required to pay this time, but we still need to get an invoice," Chen Luo stated his request.

"Hmm?" Croissant couldn't help but glance sideways.

Good grief, are they planning to stick to their old tricks?

"What do you want to do?" Upon hearing the word "invoice," Swire, a wealthy young lady, immediately sensed something was wrong.

"It's nothing. I just felt that since it's my work compensation, I should get something in return. If I can't get it from the Lungmen Guard Bureau, then I'll get it from the Penguin Logistics boss! It's what I deserve!"

“Sure, but only if you actually have the intelligence.” Swire nodded, not refusing.

In any case, it's not the Lungmen Guard Bureau that suffers the loss, but the owner of Penguin Logistics.

"Here you go." Chen Luo took out a document from his red orca plush toy and handed it to Swire.

"???" Surprised by the location where Chen Luo stored the files, Swire glanced at the red orca doll a couple more times before focusing her attention on the files in front of her.

After reviewing it, Swire gave it high praise.

Because it was so detailed, it was as if Chen Luo had been following the disaster closely and meticulously recording everything from the beginning to the end of it.

"You're really dedicated. With a member of the Observatory like you in Yan, how can the future not be prosperous?" After confirming the authenticity of the document, Swire took Chen Luo's Observatory ID from a police officer.

"I wouldn't call myself dedicated."

"Hmm, you're also surnamed Chen?"

“Absolutely genuine. In Yan Kingdom, Chen is a very common surname. It doesn't mean that people have a high social status, but there are many people with this surname,” Chen Luo said.

"Oh, I see... I was thinking I might run into some distant relative of Pink Sausage Dragon." Swire muttered to herself as she returned the ID to Chen Luo and gave them four extra milk teas.

The police officer next to Chen Luoyan, who had seen Chen Luoyan's spy certificate, hesitated for a moment, but still lit a cigarette for Chen Luoyan.

"Are you interested in developing your career in Lungmen?" Swire was trying to recruit some talent for Lungmen.

"Sorry, I'm on paid leave right now. Wouldn't it be foolish to quit now?"

"That's true. So when is your vacation over?"

It is indeed outrageous to ask someone to resign during paid leave.

"Hard to say."

"What do you mean?"

"It means that if I don't want to go back to work, they are willing to pay me a salary for life but don't want to see me."

"Why? Judging from the work materials you just presented, you seem to be quite professional, don't you?"

"Because I always manage to increase their workload in some strange way, especially when it comes to natural disasters. My position in the Imperial Observatory of Yan is quite special; their only requirement for me is to stay as far away from Yan's cities as possible. It's just too much!"

What happened to Chen Luo? Isn't Chen Luo just someone who frequently attracts natural disasters? What did Chen Luo do wrong?

Besides, whether Chen Luo attracts natural disasters is something he can control! Unlike someone who causes natural disasters and brings bad luck wherever they go.

"Are you infected?" Swire looked at Chen Luo suspiciously.

"No, if something like Originium could infect me, I might think more highly of him." Chen Luo shook his head.

While this might be a bit too Versailles-like, Chen Luo is someone who can swim in the Herrscher of the End's bathwater; his Honkai energy adaptability has reached 200%, and his other resistances have also been amplified...

Source Stone? Infect?

It's more like something you could eat raw to boost your sanity!

"Then why don't the people at the Imperial Observatory welcome you?"

"Perhaps it's because of jealousy and envy of talent," Chen Luo said with a sigh.

"In that case...why not try working part-time as a Lungmen Catastrophe Messenger Consultant? You can earn two jobs for one, wouldn't that be great?" Swire continued trying to recruit Chen Luo.

This guy is a real talent!

Talented people can shine wherever they go, and they are always worth recruiting.

"Really? You're really willing to give me a job opportunity? You're really willing to recruit me as an advisor on behalf of the Lungmen Guard Bureau?" Chen Luo was somewhat excited after hearing Swire's offer.

I can get another salary for free!

What? You mean work? You can find all that information in the Book of Akasha.

The Book of Akasha + The Void Archives = Data Printer

If Chen Luo wanted to, he could complete a month's worth of work in just one minute.

"Of course, as a senior superintendent of the Lungmen Guard Bureau, I have this authority, provided that your identity as an Imperial Observatory official is genuine."

"Alright, the search is complete, it is indeed true." Swire did find Chen Luo's name and image on the Yan Kingdom's internal information search website, specifically within the Imperial Observatory.

The name and profile picture match perfectly.

For some reason, the information about Chen Luo only includes a picture and his name, and doesn't even include his age.

But Chen Luo was the only one with a gold badge, representing a high-level talent.

But this only strengthened Swire's belief that this was a talent; otherwise, why would the Imperial Observatory have kept Chen Luo's information so well confidential?

The high level of secrecy demonstrates the value of such talent.

"Wait a minute, Doctor, you've already found a job in Lungmen? Didn't you say you were going to come back to Penguin Logistics with me?" Exusiai asked in surprise.

“Don’t worry, there’s no conflict between being a part-time consultant for the Calamity Messenger in Lungmen and going to Penguin Logistics. After all, I’m just a consultant…right?” Chen Luo looked at Swire.

“That’s right. All you need to do is help the people in Lungmen who are in charge of exploring natural disasters to answer their questions when they encounter more advanced difficulties. The work is easy, and it mainly relies on your knowledge and professional skills.” Swire nodded.

“Of course, as a part-time consultant, rather than a full-time one, the monthly salary will be lower,” Swire added.

"No problem!" Chen Luo nodded.

No matter how low the salary is, as long as I can get things for free, that's enough.

"Alright, while the milk tea is being delivered, let's sign a contract first."

Swire is, after all, a senior superintendent in the Lungmen Guard Bureau. If it's just about hiring an advisor, her authority would be sufficient.

It's fair to say that within the Lungmen Guard Bureau, and even throughout Lungmen, very few people can control Swire.

Swire's position was already very high.

The next step was to replace Chen as the head of the special inspection team.

Chen is currently in charge of the Lungmen Guard Bureau.

As long as Wei Yanwu doesn't take action, no one can control Chen.

"Alright, the contract is signed. From today onwards, you are Lungmen's Senior Disaster Advisor. Remember to keep your phone accessible so we can reach you when needed, otherwise your salary will be deducted," Swire said.

"Don't worry." Chen Luo patted his chest.

Chen Luo assured him that they would not choose to contact him first.

Why, you ask?

Requesting leave first and reporting later is a special privilege granted by imperial authority!

"The milk tea is here too, have a cup." Swire looked at the talent she had just recruited with great satisfaction.

Swire has always wanted to replace Chen and then take over the Lungmen Guard!

Eat your food one bite at a time!

Let's start by recruiting a henchman surnamed Chen!

Well, he can't really be called a junior, but Swire helped him find a part-time job, so he should at least thank Swire, right?

This is my own little group!

This young man is pleasing to the eye and is a highly skilled individual. Moreover, since he is a messenger of natural disasters, he must be quite capable in combat.

“I used to come to the Lungmen Guard Bureau to pay fines. This is the first time I’ve gotten something from the Lungmen Guard Bureau. It’s a really precious experience!” Croissant exclaimed.

"As expected of a Doctor!" Exusiai said with considerable pride.

"..." Texas silently sipped her milk tea.

To be honest, the milk tea I got for free did taste better.

Previously, I always delivered things to the Lungmen Guard Bureau; this is the first time I've gotten something for free from the Lungmen Guard Bureau.

However, Chen Luo was arrested on his very first day in Lungmen, but within 20 minutes of being arrested, he found a job at the Lungmen Guard Bureau with a decent salary. It just goes to show that the strong never complain about their environment!

Even if they get arrested, they can still shine!

That's really impressive.

So... is Chen Luo's ability to destroy the Dragon Gate related to his identity, or is it a lie?

"Alright, now that you've joined the team and are in the Lungmen Guard Bureau, I'd like to ask you to wait a little longer so I can report some information to the disaster messengers as a firsthand witness to the catastrophe." Swire patted Chen Luo on the shoulder.
