Chapter 242 Showdown II
"Give me some time."
Chen An raised his head and wanted to look at the stars in the night sky, but the night sky in the capital was invisible.
"How do you give you time?" Zhou Baixiong shook his head.
"Not much, three months." Chen An stretched out three fingers calmly. "As a price, I can help you catch Su Yi and the others."
"Haha..." Zhou Baixiong snorted. "What if it fails?"
"Let's deal with it." Chen An said lightly.
"One month, this is the limit I can help you." Zhou Baixiong took his last breath of cigarette, and slapped the cigarette butts into his pocket. "A month later, no matter whether it succeeds or fails, you must promise me something."
"What's the matter?" Chen Andu said.
"I lack a member of the team in Shenhai, and I think you are very suitable." Zhou Baixiong said in a deep voice. "I hope that you can loyally guard the peace of the motherland in your life."
"Do you believe me?" Chen An's eyebrows trembled slightly.
"A filial child will never be a bad person." Zhou Baixiong grabbed the railing with both hands and looked into the distance. "Everyone has his own secret. I don't know what you have hidden, nor why you chose to save Hou Wenjun, but I know that you have no bad intentions."
"You are such a special person." Chen An said sincerely.
"In my eyes, everyone is special, so do you." Zhou Baixiong turned around and reached out to pat Chen An on the shoulder. "Don't let me down."
After saying that, Zhou Baixiong strided away from the rooftop.
At this moment.
Chen An didn't know how to express his feelings. Before coming to the rooftop, he had imagined countless conversations in his mind while walking in the playground and practiced countless countermeasures, but in the end none of them came in handy.
Because Zhou Baixiong's reaction was completely beyond his expectations.
He thought he was here to seek punishment, but he didn't know that he was like a kind elder who gave him unexpected teachings and trust.
It was precisely because Chen An fell into a long silence.
He doesn't like to owe anyone, but Zhou Baixiong just hits his weakness.
Why did he choose me? Why did he trust me?
No answer.
Chen An couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Dingling--
The phone in his pocket rang, interrupting his complicated thoughts.
"Hey?! Chen Ping, why haven't you come back yet?! The three of us are almost hungry..."
"Come back in about thirty minutes."
After hanging up Qian Xiaodong's phone call, Chen An left the rooftop.
Three servings of rice bowl, beef, green pepper shredded pork, tomato and eggs.
When Chen An returned to the dormitory, the first time, whether it was Qian Xiaodong lying on the bed, or Meng Fanfei and Jiang Zhili, who were sitting in front of the computer, were unable to play games, rushed over like a hungry tiger pounced on a sheep.
"Chen Ping, where are you glasses?"
Qian Xiaodong, who was squeezing into his mouth, saw Chen An sitting in front of the computer, and then he reacted slowly.
"Take it."
Chen An is like a wandering heretic.
"Why did you throw it away for no reason?" Qian Xiaodong quickly took a sip of water and swallowed it to the food that was blocked in his throat.
"Because there is no need to wear it anymore." Chen Anduo.
"Speaking of this, Chen Ping, you are still very handsome if you don't wear your eyes!" Jiang Zhili said with a smile. "But something abnormal will happen. Suddenly, you don't wear glasses anymore. He said, "Did you fall in love with a girl before you are ready to decorate yourself?"
"Huh?! Big news!! I didn't expect Chen Ping, you will have a time of thinking about the spring!" Qian Xiaodong pretended to be exaggerated. "Let me tell me, which department did you like? What's your name? How do you look? Where do you live..."
I really envy you who are carefree.
Chen An shook his head and did not answer, but just sighed in his heart.
Next step.
It's time to unfold the cage bird combat plan.
Su Yi, don’t let me down!
...
...
"Captain Zhou, what are you thinking?"
Lin Yi scratched his head and looked at Zhou Baixiong who was smoking calmly in the car. He really didn't understand what he did. Since he met and communicated with Chen Ping from the rooftop, he ordered the removal of most of the people responsible for monitoring Chen Ping and solemnly warned that no one was allowed to disturb Chen Ping's normal life without his permission.
"Give people a chance, give yourself a chance." Zhou Baixiong silently looked at the scenery outside the car window.
"But we have all discovered such an important clue. Now if you say you want to give up, give up. Once Team Jiang is pursuing it..." Lin Yi said in dismay.
"I will explain Lao Jiang." Zhou Baixiong said.
"Is Team Zhou worth it?" Lin Yi calmed down. After a long time, he suddenly asked.
"Lin Yi, do you know that since the establishment of the Nine Departments, the number of psychics in the work has been counted over the years?" Zhou Baixiong replied unfairly.
"I haven't paid attention to it carefully." Lin Yi said honestly.
"In 57, Nine Departments were established, with a total of 263 psychics in the workplace. In 78 years, there were a total of 191 psychics in the workplace. In 97 years, there were 163 psychics in the workplace. This year, there were only 132 psychics in the workplace…" Zhou Baixiong slowly said a series of numbers. "Do you know what this means?"
"It means that the number of psychics in Nine Places has been declining sharply over the years." Lin Yi's mood became heavier.
"Do you know that the number of psionics abroad has been increasing?" Zhou Baixiong sighed lightly.
"Captain Zhou... I probably understand what you mean." Lin Yi leaned his head down and leaned on the back of the chair, staring blankly at the ceiling of the car.
"Every psychic who joins the Nine Departments should know that since those ten years of dying mountains and ruining temples, most of the spiritual power inheritance in China has been basically cut off. Others have either fled abroad or remained hidden in the world, while fewer and fewer psychics we have cultivated and discovered by ourselves." Zhou Baixiong continued to tell a sad fact. "Once there is no successor in China and has died out, who can take on the important task of protecting the peace of our motherland and the people in the future?"
"Captain Zhou, I understand, you need to say nothing." Lin Yi covered his face with both hands.
"Every generation has the responsibility of each generation. The mission of the predecessors has been completed, and it depends on us now." Zhou Baixiong said with a rare smile.
"But... he is not a real psychic!" Lin Yi said.
"Indeed." Zhou Baixiong said. "But he has proved with his strength that he is not inferior to ordinary psychics."
"I admit this." Lin Yi nodded and sighed. "He is really the most powerful ordinary person I have ever met."
Qin Shixiong was killed in a sneak attack in the train incident. Hou Wenjun was rescued from the tiger's mouth on the May 7th. Even now, under the circumstances of unmotivated violent coercion, they still do not know Hou Wenjun's specific whereabouts under the other party's calculations.
If it were Lin Yi, could he do the above?
Although he didn't want to admit it, Lin Yi asked himself, and it seemed that he was indeed inferior to Chen Ping.
"He is an excellent wise man who can coordinate the overall situation. Even without spiritual power, he can still show a deterrent force that no one can ignore." Zhou Baixiong said. "And this is what I value him."
"Have you reached any deal with him?" Lin Yi said silently for a moment.
