Enforcer's Handbook

This lunch gave Nihility a new understanding of Lu Xiang.

In order to defeat an enemy who was like a phantom, she did not hesitate to sacrifice her own strength and returned to the mortal world, dormant in the strange lower world for decades.

For the inhabitants of the upper world, psychic energy is everything.

After all, not everyone can be like Song Lan, who can be lazy and take promotion at the same time. Most of them have paid a long and painful price to get here, which is most likely a lifetime. .

Until then, they were no different from the crickets in the eyes of the inhabitants of the upper world.

The objects of entertainment, the puppets controlled by the threads of fate, in addition to making unimaginable efforts, they also need enough luck to prevent them from dying in the dispute before they grow up.

Among them, luck is particularly important.

Void has seen countless crickets that he admired for their excellent qualities, but in the end they lost the possibility of being promoted to the upper world due to reasons that even he did not expect.

Because of this, the residents of the upper world who have gone through this difficult process value everything they have more than anyone else, and most of them will join the fight without any psychological burden after coming to the upper world. Cricket ranks.

Finally coming through, it's their turn to control the fate of others.

This is the most common mentality in the upper world.

Under the influence of this atmosphere, Lu Xiang's decision became particularly valuable.

Do you regret it?

Nothingness is a little curious.

No.

Lu Xiang's answer was without any hesitation. When the one hundred and fifty-fifth fragment returned to her hands, she had thought about this question.

The answer is obvious.

No matter how many times she starts over, she will make the same choice, at most optimizing some details of the plan.

After all, the original intention of this incident was not to implement a plan to exterminate the same species, but to make everyone aware of their situation. The only regret is that the persuasion eventually turned into a fierce self-defense, although Song Lan has always emphasized that he will Everyone in the world has become friends, but apart from her and Void, no one else seems to buy into Song Lan's account.

From this point of view, Song Lan has indeed grown a lot during the time she was missing.

In addition to the epic enhancement of his cooking skills, he also learned how to get along with people.

Everyone in the law enforcement department of District 17 really regarded him as a good colleague and good friend. No one would bring a dagger coated with poison and stab Song Lan in the back when he resigned.

And I also had some selfish motives when I separated the psychic energy.

Selfish?

Only when one abandons spiritual energy and memory can one truly return to humanity.

Return to humanity? Why do you think of returning to humanity?

Nothingness is even more surprising.

In the upper world, human beings are not really respected. In the eyes of the residents, they are no different from crickets on the roadside. The only difference is that the believers of the church are domestic crickets, while the others are wild crickets.

As for the followers of the Mechanicus, they are roughly equivalent to crickets with long swords and cruel temperaments that are difficult to catch.

This emotion is simple and easy to understand, just like no one wants to become a cricket or other insect.

“Because there’s a Slowbird that’s been in my garden preaching to me about the benefits of being human.”

Lu Xiang glanced at Song Lan.

During their conversation, the sluggish bird refilled its meal.

The honest Nothing was so focused on the conversation that he didn't even realize the crisis he was facing - the beef and potatoes were almost eaten by them. After a while, he could only mix the rice with beef and potatoes soup. have eaten.

Just imagine, if there is a slowbird that stays in your garden every day, and you have a lot of time, it will be difficult for you not to observe and study the habits of this alien creature.

In fact, her observation journal of Slowpoke goes back much further.

Slowbird always complained that life in the upper world was too boring and could hardly find any entertainment. It was difficult for him to imagine how the residents of the upper world spent these long years. Whenever she asked, the other party would say For humans, this is a perfectly normal request.”

Although in theory, they all initially completed the promotion ceremony as humans, their ascetic lives often lasted much longer than becoming residents of the upper world.

According to Lu Xiang's observation, only those who are focused on nothing can complete the promotion ceremony, which means that they often have this ideal as soon as they can remember, and it becomes a creed that accompanies them. Like Slow Bird, they have experienced a rich life. Those are the outliers.

But it happened that many of the things Song Lan mentioned sounded interesting and brought some waves to her monotonous life.

And now, she finally experienced all the pleasures the other party mentioned.

For example, when she was studying A Love Tip Every Day, the best-selling love code accompanied her through a happy time, and it also made her have feelings for Song Lan that were absolutely impossible to have before.

Now this matter has become one of her sources of happiness. Compared with the days in the upper world where she stared at the garden every day, human life is much richer and more colorful.

By the way, the two cartoons SpongeBob SquarePants and Tom and Jerry also brought her great happiness.

There is still a life-sized Spongebob doll in the living room of her apartment, but since Night Heron moved in, Spongebob has become Night Heron's pillow most of the time.

I think this topic can be ended here.

Nothingness stretched out his right hand. Just now, the bachelor's radar issued an early warning to him.

He observed that Lu Xiang's eyes towards Song Lan were getting softer and softer. As a single person, he had developed an excellent sense of crisis after experiencing the plot in the past few days.

There is indeed fun in human identity.

But that wasn't what he wanted to discuss right now.

It's rare that Lao Song has made such a big pot of beef. Let's try his... Huh?

The atmosphere at the table fell into a long silence.

Facts have proved that although Lao Xu has developed a radar for dog food behavior, he is still a complete newcomer in the field of food protection.

But you can't blame him. After all, with his noble status, even if he encountered a dinner party in the past, no one would dare to touch him if he didn't move his chopsticks.

The young Mr. Nothingness has never encountered a despicable person who ate up all the meat while others were talking!

However, for Song Lan and Lu Xiang, who raised Night Heron, chatting will never affect their choice of food. Otherwise, when you finish chatting, you will find that there are only bare plates left on the table.

But Song Lan is a socially responsible person after all, and he left some broth for their Lao Xu.

Even if you can't eat potatoes and beef, soaking rice in soup can be considered a good lunch.

rat!

Nothingness stood up and once again extended his right hand to Song Lan, Bring back my 152 followers and the potato and beef stew!

Don't be impulsive, Lao Xu.

After a full meal, Song Lan wiped the corners of her mouth and said, We are a team.

By the time you've eaten all the beef and potatoes we're no longer companions!

The heart of Nothingness is filled with grief.

He originally had very high expectations for this lunch. Song Lan used the slow-cooking technique and simmered it for more than two hours. The alluring aroma of meat filled the whole room. This is why he had The reason why he secretly put Shakeela into the pot several times.

But now, there are only bits and pieces of seasoning residue and soup base left in this huge casserole!

What a mature team needs is division of labor and cooperation.

Song Lan said, For example, during today's lunch, you are responsible for purchasing ingredients and washing dishes.

You actually want me to wash the dishes!

Nothingness couldn't believe his ears. The grief in his heart was constantly turning into murderous intent at this moment, Watch the move, Lao Xu stabs!

…

Congratulations, you have finally grown up.

After the meal, Lu Xiang spoke highly of Old Xu Thrust. Although it failed to cause any substantial harm to Song Lan, it also meant that he was not fooled by Song Lan again this time and ran to wash the dishes in a daze. .

This is undoubtedly historic progress.

Slowpoke took on the job of washing dishes due to his unethical behavior that undermined the unity of the team.

I don't feel happy at all.

Nothingness drooped his face.

He felt that the source of his happiness should be the process of showing off rice and beef, rather than launching Laoxu thrusts at Song Lan.

But there are many things in this world that even gods cannot do anything about.

This is one of those things that cannot be put back into the pot.

How's the situation outside?

Lu Xiang is the only person who has been out in the past few days. She has systematically studied reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance studies at Daystar. The Sea of ​​Souls has made her even more powerful. Even if she walks on the street, she will not be outlawed by the coalition government. Someone from the dispatch department found out.

Nothingness decided to talk about business to distract from the sadness in his heart.

The swarm doctors submitted their findings to the medical teams of the Oasis and the United Government, and they successfully developed a special serum.

After everything was settled, corruption was defeated, and the innocent people who died from the plague were reborn due to the power of the God of Life, a reliable medical team finally developed a serum to fight against infectious diseases.

Although the people in the oasis no longer need the serum, they can change their thinking and put the developed serum into the oasis's history museum.

If they are seen by future generations hundreds of years later, they may think that they played an important role in the plague that swept the entire country.

The good news is that the Brotherhood has been completely destroyed. Captain Doug and the Resistance Army have joined forces to rescue the people who were kidnapped here for various reasons. After the information integration is completed, they will use Root City and District 17 as transit Stop and send them home.

The wealthy Princess Lieyang said that the travel expenses would be sponsored by the Twelfth Country.

Having said that, this is an extremely complex and time-consuming task.

The rescued people were mixed with some remnants of the brotherhood and members of the fraud gang. They wanted to fish in troubled waters as victims and escape from this place of right and wrong. How to screen out these criminals and impose legal sanctions on them? It just depends on Captain Doug’s sense of smell and intelligence.

The Resistance is not good at this kind of thing, and Captain Doug complains that the experts they sent can't even understand the Skynet database and can only act as mascots.

Speaking of this, Lu Xiang couldn't help but sigh.

The spirit of work burned brightly within her.

At this time in the past, she should have completed the screening work in person on the front line. The slogan of the law enforcers in District 17 is to never wrong a good person and never let a bad person go. But now it is inconvenient for her to show up in public, so This important task all falls on Captain Doug and the special operations team.

The real headache is yet to come.

The council couldn't get through to her cell phone, so they sent a bunch of transfer orders to her mailbox.

To choose one of them as the head of the counter-intelligence department of the first district or the director of the abnormal case investigation bureau, in order to attract the two outstanding talents she and Song Lan, the council used all the connections they could think of. It made sense, and what made Lu Xiang feel even more incredible was that they somehow got the news that he liked to eat potatoes. They upgraded the staff kitchen of the counterintelligence department, and hired the best cooks from various parts of the coalition government. Potato cook.

The transfer order from the counterintelligence department also came with a menu for the staff canteen.

From Monday to Sunday, there are different varieties of potatoes every day.

One of the most eye-catching gimmicks is that the counterintelligence service has the best employee meal package in the coalition government.

Cunning intelligence agent!

Lu Xiang admitted that he was a little moved when he saw the staff canteen menu and pictures.

That's why she asked for beef and potatoes today.

According to the current momentum, it may be difficult to stay in District 17 any longer. As long as they show up, lobbyists from the Council will come.

As for Song Lan's transfer letter, it was more direct and clear, Special Advisor to the Psychic Research Institute, Minister of Homeland Security of the United Government, this is your transfer order.

“What does Homeland Security do?”

Song Lan's voice came from the kitchen.

To use what you said before, he is probably a general.

Slowbird has always said that he admires a general named Porusalino very much. She checked countless information and never heard of this person. Later, she got Song Lan drunk again before she came up with the words.

It turned out that it was just a character in the comics, known as General Moyu.

I reject.

According to the situation in the transfer order, wages and benefits have increased approximately 25 times.

Sorry, not interested.

Song Lan pretended to be wary of pyramid schemes.

Given the level of danger in this world, just a civilian employee of a border law enforcement department would be kidnapped on the way home from get off work. If he became a general, that would be okay. God knows what kind of danger he would encounter.

At that time, he is very likely to encounter a terrifying opponent of the level of True Overlord Sunset Chaiko.

Just thinking about it is chilling.

During non-war times, I work two days a week, and my time is free. You can check in on any two days you choose.

In this era where 007 is popular, is there really a job that allows you to work two days a week?

Lu Xiang read the contents of the transfer order aloud, Due to the special position, the attendance of this position will not be included in the performance appraisal.

The sound of water in the kitchen stopped.

About thirty seconds later, Song Lan's head poked out of the kitchen door, creating a rather strange scene.

Lu Xiang guessed that his waist had to be bent back 60 degrees to create such a scene comparable to a horror movie.

This is another proof that there is nothing wrong with Song Lan's waist.

Slowbird was staring at the two people in the living room with his wise eyes, Is the source of the news reliable?

Thanks to the leader of Shashashayu~! Many thanks!

Small theater its two hundred and ninety-four:

A certain day of a certain year, a certain day, a Wednesday, in the morning

This is an incredible talent. I think Little Potato may be more suitable to be a survival expert than a chef! This is an innate sense of crisis!

What you said makes sense.

Song Lan touched his chin and whispered to Hannah.

The two were so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't notice a cold look on their backs.

Some people say that children can see things that adults cannot.

This is the case for the current little potato.

The baby sat on the crib, looking longingly at Lu Xiang.

In her eyes, a well appeared on Lu Xiang's forehead.

You guys had such a great time chatting.

The light voice made the two of them tremble. Hannah, who had fully learned about fishing, judged the situation immediately.

Very well, the main target of anger is Song Lan.

Ah, I suddenly remembered that I have a meeting at the bureau tonight, so I won't disturb you for now.

The first rule of salted fish is to run away first when in doubt!

Go quickly, work is important.

Lu Xiang's smile was particularly bright.

I also suddenly remembered that our department has a meeting in the evening...

I have your department's meeting schedule.

Lu Xiang put his hand on Song Lan's shoulder to stop him from running away. Song Lan could only stretch out his right hand and made a compassing gesture toward Hannah's back.

What responded to him was the crisp sound of the door closing.

The promised team friendship!

At the same time, a devilish whisper sounded in his ears, It seems that you have a strong opinion on the porridge I cooked.
