Volume 4: Beginning of Spring Chapter 65: Adjournment
After Jiang You finished speaking, the living room became quiet again.
Guan Nuo looked at Zhuang Zekun and then at Tang Butian.
"That's it." Tang Butian said.
"Xiao Tang..." Zhuang Zekun tried to explain, but was interrupted by Tang Butian.
"Let's go." Tang Butian stood up.
Guan Nuo looked into her eyes, which were clearly black and white, with no emotion.
He heard her say, "Senior Zhuang, I understand what you mean. I have no objection."
"That's fine with me."
This is Jiang You's voice.
The sofa cushions vibrated, and Jiang You stood up holding Jiang Mo. "I still have to go to the Science and Technology Museum. It's not even two o'clock now, so I can spend two or three hours there." He walked towards the door. "I'm leaving first. Goodbye, everyone. Send me a message when you're going to take action."
"Brother Jiang, I'm with you." Sun Yu followed.
The door opened and closed again.
"Are there any results from the detention center?" Tang Butian asked.
"Not yet, Xiao Tang..."
"You go now."
"Okay, I'm leaving now," Zhuang Zekun looked at Guan Qingtong, "Shall we go?"
Guan Qingtong nodded.
They all stood up.
"Zhong Yan, let's contact each other later." Zhuang Zekun said to Zhong Yan.
"Okay, goodbye." Zhong Yan also stood up.
Guan Nuo took a step towards Tang Butian. When he opened his mouth to say something, Guan Qingtong pushed him.
He blurted out, "Tang Bu Tian..."
Tang Butian looked at him.
His voice dropped, "I'm leaving."
"goodbye."
He followed Guan Qingtong and walked out.
…
Sun Yu followed Jiang You out of the community. "If I had known, I would have asked for leave today. The task assigned to us is obviously a scam ."
“It’s still a bit confusing.”
"Oh, right," Sun Yu glanced back and didn't see Zhuang Zekun and the others. He said, "I just found out that Secretary Ji was also a member of the Special Operations Group. No wonder he has such a good relationship with Zhuang Zekun."
"How do you know that?"
"I met him when I was working overtime, and he told me that in person."
"Working overtime to read the materials?"
"I have nothing to do when I go home, and my mom is still nagging me. I read it and imagined it. It's quite interesting," Sun Yu said, glancing at Jiang You. "I found that the records from 17 years ago are indeed quite confusing. Do you think what Zhuang Zekun said today is true?"
"I think he wants to hide something. In fact, think about it, Huang Juan has been arrested, and he has not shown up. Jinghu will definitely be alert, right? I would just withdraw directly," Jiang You changed his posture and hugged Jiang Mo, "How is your health-preserving exercise going?"
“I feel much better.”
"The section chief is the most down-to-earth."
"Yes, the section chief seems very angry today..."
“So I quickly slipped away.”
As they talked, they walked to the intersection.
Jiang You said: "I'm going to cross the traffic light, what about you?"
Sun-woo said, “I’ll go along this way.”
"Goodbye then."
"Okay, goodbye Jiang."
…
After the person left, the living room suddenly became empty.
Zhong Yan looked at Zhaocai who was squatting at Tang Butian's feet and said, "It has gained a lot of weight."
"You can leave too." Tang Butian said.
"Didn't anyone tell you something about the Special Operations Group before you came down the mountain?" Zhong Yan asked, "The history of the Special Operations Group and so on..."
Tang Butian pursed her lips and didn't answer.
"I didn't know you had such a hard time down there. They should respect you and meet all your requests."
"Fighting?" Tang Butian asked.
Zhong Yan was stunned.
"If you don't want to fight, just leave. Also," Tang Butian lowered her head and glanced at Zhao Cai, "I'm doing well. I've gained a little weight."
"What?"
"Maybe I don't exercise enough. Every time I take action, I have to apply for permission, and I'm never allowed to do it with all my strength. I also have to write a report afterwards. Fortunately, Sun Yu is here."
"Junior sister?"
Hearing this name, Tang Butian was stunned.
"Aren't you sad?"
"I didn't set the rules of the competition. Teke, you made me the person in charge, but the rules were still not set by me. So I have to listen to you." Tang Butian's tone and expression were very calm.
"Zhuang Zekun and I are not in the same group." Zhong Yan's tone was a little anxious.
"I agree with this rule, I think it is fair."
"Tang is not sweet..."
"Strength is respected on the mountain. In the past, I thought that my opponents were my peers, but I was wrong. I have to be stronger than the people who make the rules. This is what I figured out when I got off the mountain."
"You've hit a dead end."
"I can afford to lose," Tang Butian bent down and picked up Zhaocai, "The Special Operations Department is very important to Senior Zhuang, and maybe to you and Director Zhong as well. But for me, the Special Operations Department that I'm in charge of has nothing to do with any special talents, internal fighting, or research results. It's just me, Sun Yu, Jiang You, and Zhaocai doing our duty for some ordinary people's things."
Tang Butian felt that the recruitment was indeed a lot more difficult. She frowned and said, "If you don't leave, I'm going to hit you."
"and you……"
The wooden sword pierced through the air and appeared in front of Zhong Yan in an instant.
Zhong Yan subconsciously swung to block, and the wooden sword drew a semicircle in the air and chopped towards his shoulder.
Tang Butian stretched out his right hand and grasped the hilt of the knife.
The blade was about five or six millimeters away from Zhong Yan's shoulder.
A dark light floated on the blade.
Zhong Yan took a step back.
"Strength is respected in the mountains. I hope you remember this rule."
"Tang is not sweet..."
Tang Butian lowered his hand, with the tip of the knife standing at an angle on the floor.
Zhong Yan's eyes darkened, "Then I'll leave."
Tang Butian looked at the coffee cups scattered on the coffee table and said, "Pick up the trash."
"good."
"Meow!"
Zhao, who was nestled in Tang Butian's arms, let out a cry.
…
After Zhong Yan left, Tang Butian held Zhao Cai and sat on the sofa in deep thought for a while.
Her hands gradually loosened, and Zhao jumped from her knees to the ground, walked around her feet, and then curled up.
Time passes by every second.
Tang Butian took out her cell phone and called Jiang You.
Jiang You had already entered the Science and Technology Museum. He looked at the three words "Tang Xiaotian" on the screen of his mobile phone and answered the call, "Leader, you are looking for me."
"The cat was not taken away."
"I just said that I seemed to have forgotten something, Zhaocai, I'm at the Science and Technology Museum now, are you going out today? If not, I'll stop by your place on my way back and bring it back."
"good."
"Are they gone?" Jiang You asked.
"I'm leaving."
"Do you want to come and play? I just checked. There is a robot exhibition hall. The robots can play the piano, play with the Rubik's Cube, and experience earthquakes. There is also a spider exhibition. The introduction said there is a specimen of a giant carnivorous spider."
Jiang Mo lay on Jiang You's shoulder, looking at the simple drawing of a dinosaur on the wall. He reached out and tapped it, and the dinosaur drawing lit up.
"Okay." Tang Butian agreed.
"Okay, we'll meet at the robot exhibition area later."
