Chapter 183: It is beyond the Supreme One, and it is arbitrary to cultivate immortality (Part 1)
Director Liang: "Don't avoid the important things. Why are you secretly monitoring our surveillance point? Who leaked the secret? Who assigned you?...You know, that surveillance point was arranged by me personally."
I thought to myself, "You are stupid enough! It's the secret you vented yourself." I replied without any politely, "There is no silver here, it's not the secret of anyone venting it. I found it when I walked there. As a special service staff member, when I saw such a store, I could clearly know where it was. I thought it was very interesting, so I observed it for a while."
"Oh? Did you find the problem yourself? How did you find it? Tell me." Director Liang's tone was a little surprised.
I didn't hide it, and directly told the problem of the seafood store. One, two, and three are very clear. The problem with that store is obvious, and as long as you are an expert, you can find something wrong. Director Liang looked a little embarrassed after hearing this, took a sip of tea to cover up his face, and said in an official voice: "Well, it's great! Although you are not old and not fully trained, you are very insightful!... In fact, the layout of the surveillance points is intentional, mainly to play a warning and deterrent role. Our policies have always been based on prevention. You can find that it means you are very professionally sensitive."
The effect of shock? It would be better to just write a slogan "Abide by the law" and hang it there. Why waste manpower, material resources and financial resources? Director Liang is obviously making excuses for his mistakes in his work. But I was too lazy to discuss this with him and asked directly: "I asked me here today for this matter? I explained clearly that I can leave, right?"
Director Liang's eyes were gloomy and clear, and it was obvious that he had some ideas in his heart. As expected, he changed to a kind and caring face and said to me: "Comrade Shitou, your current identity is still just an extra-staff special agent, and he has not enjoyed the formal establishment and level treatment of our institution. I think you are a promising talent. If you are interested, I can give you a report to you to absorb you into the formal establishment, and your work experience can also be included in your college years. After graduation in the future, you will go directly to the institution and have my care. I believe your future will be very fast..."
This is what I meant to win over, but I was not interested in formally entering this institution. I politely refused: "Director Liang, thank you for your importance and cultivation. I remember when I joined this organization, I was still young and ignorant, so I came in in a confused manner. Now I understand a little more things. I am willing to use my special abilities to do something for the country, but I don't want to give up my normal life, nor do I want to choose such a career. It's better to be an extra-staff special agent. I will try my best to complete any tasks in the organization."
Director Liang looked at me with a deep tone: "We can't force you to think so. Of course, if you value me as your boss, I will try my best to assign you appropriate tasks in the future... Another point I want to emphasize is that organizational discipline is very important! You must never short circuit at any time, and resolutely implement the code of action of automatic insulation. Your behavior yesterday was very reckless. Next time you find similar problems, you should contact me directly with a single line. Do you remember?"
"Yes, remember!" I answered very simply.
Director Liang said that if I value him as his boss, he would give me the appropriate tasks, that is, if I help him, he would give me benefits. Operations like me usually only have regular posts and only have fees when doing tasks, so there are more tricks in the operation funds. He also specifically emphasized a special agent term "short circuit".
The most common organizational structure in the field of agents is a one-way tree network. This is a bit like pyramid schemes but is not completely similar. For example, a "online" leader can command several "offline" members at the same time, and each offline member only contacts such a top-line leader. In addition to cooperating in tasks, members under the same leader are not allowed to contact privately in other occasions. Parallel members in the same organization are not allowed to contact and exchange information without permission. The purpose of this is to prevent one person from turning against him and minimizing the losses of the entire organization to a minimum.
If two members of the offline operations have private contact and exchange secret information, it is called "short circuit", which is not allowed by the discipline. If you occasionally find someone is a member of the same organization, you must adhere to the "automatic insulation" code and cannot ask or tell all the situations of the organization. For example, I once met Xie Changquan, a disciple of the Taihang Sect at Xi'an Railway Station and found that he is also a special operation member of our organization, which is already a "short circuit". So I didn't ask who he worked for, the code name and the boss, etc., and he didn't ask me, this is called automatic insulation.
To be honest, I don’t like the current boss, Director Liang, just like I don’t hate the original boss, Director Gu. Although Director Gu is also an old official, he is still a human nature. And Director Liang has become an endogenous element of a pure official organization. He speaks and acts completely according to the perspective of superior-subordinate relationships and his own power and interests, and has become a person who is separated from all advanced interests. He has been born in the officialdom or large organization for too long. Many people have been separated from all advanced interests and are very consciously and voluntarily regarding themselves as just a link in the chain of interests.
...
It was already afternoon when I came back from Director Liang. I unconsciously walked to the street of the snack bar to see Chen Yan. Maybe in this strange city, she only had an old friend like me. From a distance, I saw the door of the Xi'an-style snack bar open. When I walked in, I found that Chen Yan was busy with the greeting business, and there were still many customers today.
She was wearing a pair of flat slippers and a layer of sand cloth wrapped around her feet. It seemed that her foot injury had not healed, but she insisted on opening. I was careless and only reminded her to pay attention to rest, but forgot that such a small business could not be delayed. If she didn't open one day, she would have no money to earn a day, but she could not lose her rent and living expenses. She was very happy to see me coming, so she quickly asked me to sit down. I smiled and said to her: "Your foot injury has not healed, and it's not easy to scab it when you run around. You should stay in the kitchen. Today I will help you make a hall."
Chen Yan: "Why are you embarrassed to let you, a college student, cook the job of a restaurant guy? Just sit down and eat noodles."
"What's wrong? Didn't I tell you yesterday? I did this." As I said that, I pushed her into the kitchen, tied her apron, and really started to make a run. I put the noodles, bowls, wiping the table, checking out and looking for money. I worked back and forth very well. Chen Yan really believed that I had worked as a noodle shop. Today's business was good, and there were still many people coming to eat until after nine o'clock in the evening.
The most annoying thing is the seven boys in our dormitory. Yesterday I heard the story of the snack bar. Tonight I came to eat noodles, just to see the freshness. They found that I became the client here today, and they were very surprised. Xiao Geda asked me: "Boss, are you working part-time? You really know how to choose a place! If you have such a good thing in the future, I will introduce it to us."
"I'm helping my friend... If you want to eat noodles, eat noodles honestly. I treat you. Don't look around, why are you looking into the kitchen?"
When I was busy, I felt a little smirking - it seems that I really have a fate with the noodle restaurant. I remember not long after I went to high school, I went to Ziying's noodle restaurant to help. I have only been in college for more than a month and I am guest-starring a guy at the Xi'an-style snack shop opened by Chen Yan. History has experienced a strange cycle, and everything is like it happened yesterday. Thinking about it in my heart, I smiled unconsciously on my face.
There was nothing to say all night, and after nine o'clock, there were fewer customers. When it was time to close, I helped Chen Yan clean up the shop. When she sat down and rested, she asked me: "I see you laughing when you run around. Is it so interesting to be a mate in the noodle shop?"
"You don't know, I remembered something." When I was talking, I thought of Ziying, and my mind suddenly moved. I looked up and looked out the door. There was a big beautiful woman standing outside the door. Who was Ziying? Just as I thought of her, she appeared in front of me. She was here to see me in Feishui and happened to find this place.
Chen Yan thought it was a guest, and was about to get up and I was already greeting him: "Ziying, why are you here? You didn't say hello, how did you find this place?"
Ziying entered the door and said, "I will find your dormitory first, your classmate will tell me you are here...who is this?"
I quickly explained: "This is Chen Yan. I met him in Xi'an and mentioned it to you. She was injured in her foot today, so I happened to pass by and help me... Chen Yan, this is Ziying, my friend and business partner."
It is difficult to explain my relationship with Ziying to an outsider. The word "friend" has too many meanings. Chen Yan's eyes flashed with a more complicated look, but then she smiled well obediently: "Come in and sit down quickly, Ishino's friend is my friend."
Ziying is a self-professional person, especially with women. She walked over and grabbed Chen Yan's hand and said, "Sister Chen Yan, right? I've heard Ono mention it long ago that you have kindly helped him in Xi'an...What's wrong with your feet? Let me see. This ointment is like, I'll change a medicine for you later, and it'll be fine if you apply it. Don't be polite to your sister, sit down first..."
Not long after, Ziying and Chen Yan were already chatting well, and the sisters shouted at each other, which made me feel a little jealous. I unconsciously looked at the watch and the lights in the dormitory were almost out. Ziying was obviously visiting me, but when she met, she pulled Chen Yan and started chatting, and didn't tell me anything.
Ziying also found that it was too late, so she got up and pushed me out: "You go back to school, it's getting late. Don't worry about the things here, I will help Sister Chen Yan clean up... It's Monday tomorrow, and you should go to class. Don't come to help during the day. Come find me at night, and I will still be here."
Ziying's meaning was clearly that she wanted to stay and help Chen Yan. Chen Yan said unexpectedly: "Sister, why are you so embarrassed? As soon as I met, I asked you to help me with work? It's very unreasonable to bother Shino. Please trouble you again..."
Ziying interrupted her: "Don't call me elder sister, call me Ziying, Ono's friends call me that. Since Ono is willing to help you, it's okay for me to help you. Ono didn't tell you, he used to work in the noodle shop, and I opened that noodle shop. I'm a familiar person to do these tasks."
To my surprise, Ziying really helped Chen Yan’s snack bar for three days. In the past three days, the business of that snack bar has been getting better, and it can be described as a crowded place. Many people go to see beautiful women, and so many pairs of eyes are tracing on Ziying’s body, which makes me feel a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, it was only three days, and three days later Ziying returned to Wucheng and took Chen Yan away!
I don’t know how Ziying and Chen Yan got along these three days, but in the end Chen Yan treated her as a close sister and said everything was said to Ziying. It was not until the third day, the night before Ziying left that I had the opportunity to talk alone with Ziying at night. I greeted my classmates in the dormitory and said that I would not come back if I had something to do in the evening. They all looked at me and laughed lewdly, and two of them even whistled. I knew what they were thinking, but unfortunately they thought about the right thing but the wrong person involved.
