Chapter 207 Chapter 205
The Blade Unsheathed
"Ding dong!" The doorbell rang, and Zhuang Xuteng looked in the direction of the door in confusion. Only his sister and Ge Gongdao knew his address. The former had the key, and the latter either called first or shouted directly at the door.
, never bothers to press the doorbell - the button is a little too small for his fingers and he doesn't like it.
"Ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong ding dong..."
Zhuang Xuteng was furious. Which naughty kid was this? He was ringing the doorbell here and asking for a beating, right? He put down the dumbbells, clenched his fists and walked towards the door. He was about to teach him a lesson, but he caught him with the eyes of shadow.
A very strong shadow energy signal was detected. Zhuang Xuteng immediately became alert. He breathed and walked softly, brought the bone spear gun, and was ready for battle.
"Nai...Naike, open the door quickly, I can't stand it anymore..."
Hearing that the voice was a meteor, she was at the door? Zhuang Xuteng did not dare to take it lightly. He concentrated on using the Eye of Shadow to observe and determined that most of the opponent's strong shadow signals were concentrated on the head, and then opened the door. Outside the door, only wearing thin clothes
Meteor in pajamas knelt on the ground, sweating all over her face, panting heavily, and her body trembling slightly. She raised a hand and said, "Drag me in."
Zhuang Xuteng looked outside the door to make sure there was no one else, then grabbed her arm and dragged her in.
During training, Zhuang Xuteng would close the curtains to block out the outside scenery so that she could concentrate more. After Meteor came in, she felt like she was back in a closed space, and the situation immediately became much better. Although she had been here many times with the same destination,
Going up from the secret door elevator inside and walking up the stairs outside, different paths stimulated her differently. Her panic was not a disguise, because Zhuang Xuteng was able to absorb a lot of negative emotions from her with his resentful spirit servants.
"I'll pour you some juice, and you sit down for a while. You don't need to be afraid of the meat bun - oh, it's my snow leopard. I've fed it, and it's lying down to sleep."
"Oh..." Liuxing actually felt a little guilty. She was afraid that Roubao would be particularly affectionate with her when she came to her house for the first time, and Zhuang Xuteng would see the flaw. Fortunately, Roubao was half exhausted from being Zhuang Xuteng's sparring partner.
He didn't want to move at all while resting in the nest, not even wagging his tail for a long time. Zhuang Xuteng glanced at the meat bun, lowered its guarding ability score in his mind, and then poured Legion juice into Meteor.
After drinking the juice, Meteor's mood was obviously relaxed. She looked around, climbed to Zhuang Xuteng's bed and wrapped herself in a quilt, as if she had built a temporary nest. Meteor squeezed out a smile at Zhuang Xuteng and stretched out her
He tapped his toes on the ground and said, "You don't know, right? I'll live downstairs from you."
"I was going to give it to you, but I have another set here. Lucy asked you to protect me, so when I called for help, you had to break down the three-layer door to save me? Besides, it would be a shame to ask you to take me out on a mission.
Xi asked me to say it. She said that if you agree, she will find me another bodyguard who will not cause trouble. You passed the test, but I am not completely happy."
Meteor's eyes lit up, he reached into his arms and said, "That's okay! This is my room key, you can come anytime!"
"I'm downstairs from you, and your floor is my ceiling - we're neighbors." Meteor stretched out her hand from the quilt nest, just like a hermit crab using pincers, and took the juice cup with both hands. She took another sip.
, also stuck out his tongue to lick the residue on his lips, and then said: "Ah, don't be afraid, don't be afraid! Naike, actually I lived here earlier than you. At first I didn't like the new environment, until I heard Bang Bang upstairs.
Bon, I feel better knowing you have started decorating."
"Oh...it turns out to be the mercenary Naike who is greedy for money and schemes!"
"Don't tell me the specifics of the mission yet." Zhuang Xuteng interrupted her and said: "Lucy asked me to live near you for protection, and didn't let me take you out. She... is unlikely to give you what you need.
Tasks that can only be completed when you go out, so you can also complete them at home, but it is more convenient to go out, is that what you mean?"
"Hiss...she won't hear what I just said, right?"
"That happened several months ago..." Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head and asked, "Why didn't Lucy tell me?"
"Will you give me the key?"
Meteor shook his head and said: "I'm not going to get my hair done, but I'm going to perform a mission. Send me there and protect me."
"It's awesome. But you can just call me and ask me to come down. You can also scare me." Zhuang Xuteng rubbed his hands and found something to say: "I have nothing to entertain you here except juice. Do you want to taste me?
craftsmanship?”
"Yes, I finally have a bodyguard! And you also promised to accompany me when I perform my mission, which is an unexpected surprise! You must keep your word!"
Zhuang Xuteng sighed, guessing that things would probably be like this, but now it turned out to be true. He took the key and put it away, and said, "You're not completely happy, but you're still a little happy?"
"That's not the reason why I rejected you, and it's not because I think you can't control yourself. I've been with you in the wilderness, and I know you can be strong." Zhuang Xuteng sat across from Meteor and said, "When you are outside
, your status will decline. Status of
The decline will definitely affect your ability to complete the task, and it is likely to cause a chain of negative consequences. Unless it is absolutely necessary, I recommend that you use the best state to deal with the task. You must know that even if you are fully prepared, accidents may still happen, let alone
It’s time to be in a bad state.”
Zhuang Xuteng was stunned and asked: "You are going out on a mission? Does Lucy know?"
"No, no, no, no!" Meteor said with a smile, then stretched out his legs from the bed, dangling and said: "Others will definitely not be able to do it, but it will be absolutely fine with you by my side. I find that I feel particularly at ease when I am by your side.
It's like hiding in a safe."
"Won't it delay your mission?"
"Lucy is just an employer, not a master. At least she can't control how I complete the task!"
"Ah? It's still an exchange! I don't want you to take care of me just for Lucy's money."
Zhuang Xuteng shook his head and said, "No, my answer is still no."
"Downstairs?" Zhuang Xuteng was stunned for a moment and said, "Which one is downstairs? There are twelve floors below, as well as an equipment mezzanine and a three-story basement. Are you settling on the mezzanine?"
"According to her personality, she may have to wait until something happens to me and you need to run to save me before she tells you."
"Yes, I'm in 1213. It's only half the size of your place. Fortunately, it's packed with equipment, so I won't feel empty and scared." Meteor made a rough gesture, and then said: "The properties here are quite good, and they know that I don't dare to go out.
, will deliver the food and take away the garbage. My foyer is different from yours. There are three doors, forming two isolation areas. I just put things in the isolation area. The first time I walked out of the three doors, I came up the stairs.
, am I very powerful?”
"No, you misunderstood." Zhuang Xuteng quickly went back to make amends and said: "I am purely trying to please you. I am a mercenary, you are an intelligence agent, and you are more important to Lucy. I have taken good care of you, and you
Just give me a good review in front of Lucy, and then I can continue to live here. If you think I'm good, give me more information and take care of the tasks involving me, and I will benefit as well, right?"
Zhuang Xuteng nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. It's really possible for her to do that. Meteor, are you living alone downstairs?"
"Hey, the rent alone for this big house costs a lot of money. The longer I live there, the more money I make." Zhuang Xuteng deliberately put on a greedy expression and acted exaggeratedly and comically: "Hmph, I'm thinking,
It’s best if you can get these benefits for free. If that’s not possible, how can you earn it with the lowest cost and the smallest effort?”
"No, no, I've already eaten, and you have to take me out soon."
"You're going to get a haircut, right? I promise you." Zhuang Xuteng looked left and right and said, "You have a nice hairstyle and your hair is very neat. Do you want a new look?"
"Haha, it looks very similar, just like what was shown on TV!" Meteor fainted, then took out a mobile phone from his pajamas and handed it to Zhuang Xuteng, saying: "Lucy asked you to give her a call. This phone number
The lines are safe, you can use them with confidence.”
Zhuang Xuteng continued: "I will take you out to get a haircut, see the scenery, and go shopping on the street. At most, you will not have a good time, or you will encounter gangsters and gangsters. The two of us can bear the consequences. Lucy is currently arranging very important things.
, something went wrong, and the result is not
We can't bear it, but we don't want it to go wrong, right? Meteor, you can go shopping, but not on missions. If you feel very bored, I can accompany you while you work, as long as you don't mind
It’s okay if it’s a little noisy while I’m exercising next to you.”
"Yes." Meteor nodded. "Just take me out for a while. I won't cry or make trouble when I'm with you. I'll just be obedient, isn't that okay?"
Is the servant of the resentful spirit so easy to use? Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head and regarded the emotional issue as an academic issue. He did not think about the direction that Meteor liked him at all. He only thought that Meteor was quite pitiful and had a lot of negative emotions. As long as he could alleviate it a little,
She can be very happy and even become dependent. Isn't this worthy of sympathy?
"That's okay. As long as I don't have a mission, I want to find you. This house is too big. I only serve as a bodyguard when you are in danger. This exchange makes me not very comfortable. If I can take care of you...
…”
Meteor shook his head and said: "She arranged a job for me. I found that I could go directly to the PCPD..."
"No, no, no!" Meteor shook his head vigorously, but suppressed a smile on his face, looking full of bad blood.
The phone rang three times before it was connected. Lucy asked directly: "Password!"
"The password is 1314." Meteor said quickly.
When Lucy heard the password from Zhuang Xuteng, she hummed, and then said: "Very good, you are still stable enough, so that I can trust you to entrust the important task to you. Listen, this time you have to make a sheathed blade.
, a fatal blow to the enemy's vital points. In addition, I will tell you some news that may not make you too happy: Brother Dao was deceived. He failed my test, so he will not be your partner this time. Your partner
It’s a shooting star.”
