The Final Story of Miss Weird
Page 97
Cen Xiangyun's face was filled with black lines. She had finally fallen asleep at daybreak, but the company called her room directly, waking up Lu Manqing as well.
"Such a black heart reminds me of some past experiences."
Lu Manqing elegantly took a sip of the black tea in her hand, revealing a satisfied expression.
Victoria rarely drinks tea in the morning, usually coffee, but she is still more accustomed to drinking tea, which seems to be a habit brought about by previous experiences.
"It's just that I've heard of working overtime at night, but I've never heard of working overtime in the morning." Lu Manqing shrugged.
She didn't care, since her schedule was similar to Elsa's.
The same happened to Luo Ling, and the only one who suffered was Cen Xiangyun.
Seeing this scene, Cen Xiangyun's face turned even darker.
She is the only one of them who is directly affiliated with the company, why does she feel worse than outsourcing...
There is no need to explain much about Luo Ling's situation. Although Lu Manqing joined the "company" partly because of her mother, it was generally because of her own ideas and she did not use the connections of Granny Lu.
Elsa's case was even more special. Luo Ling still didn't know how she got into the "company". Even she herself was not quite sure and just followed here in a daze.
Anyway, as long as she could stay with Luo Ling, Elsa had no objection.
Generally speaking, only Cen Xiangyun is a legitimate descendant of the "Company", but she now has the greatest resentment towards the "Company" among the few people...
"By the way, my mother told me that you had almost no hesitation in choosing the P6 specialist to lead us. Did you know him before?" Lu Manqing asked.
"...Haha." Luo Ling just sneered, "I just want to ask her for the debt."
Anyway, I don’t know anyone there, so I might as well choose someone who has a grudge against me.
If we catch this guy in the "company", he might get away, but if he's chosen as the captain... he won't be able to escape.
Selling photos, right? Don’t even think about having a good life if you don’t get any money.
Luo Ling didn't really care why she wanted to sell the photos or where they were sold. She wasn't that good-looking, nor was she a great beauty. What could a few photos do for her?
In terms of looks, she felt that she could not compare to the three present, unless she used the "White Witch" form.
However, the form of the "White Witch" has now completely transcended the scope of humans, and anyone who sees it will instantly realize that it is weird.
When she was in Jiangcheng County before, Luo Ling didn't stand out so much when she tied her hair up, but that's not the case now.
"..."
After hearing this, several people fell silent at the same time. Since they didn't really want to know how this person had offended Miss Luo Ling, it was better not to talk too much about it.
After spending some time together, they had more or less come to know Miss Luo Ling's true nature.
To be honest, I'm a little...stingy.
Of course, you can't say this in front of Miss Luo Ling. If you say that a narrow-minded person is narrow-minded in front of her, she will really show you how narrow-minded she is.
"Go wash up first. I've brought you breakfast. There's definitely no soy milk or fried dough sticks here. There's nothing you can do if you're not used to it."
Cen Xiangyun pointed to the milk and buttered bread on the table, with a hot fried egg next to it.
This was just a very ordinary breakfast. However, after witnessing life in the slums, Luo Ling realized that in this era and in this area, even such ordinary things were more expensive than life to some people.
Ordinary and common, but it requires everything as a price.
"Well, I see."
......
After breakfast, Luo Ling and others did not delay any further and went directly to Wellington Manor where Luo Ling had been before.
On the way, Cen Xiangyun briefly introduced the situation of the "company" in Victoria to Luo Ling.
Although this place is called the headquarters, in fact, except for the core decision-making level, the rest are distributed in the form of offices in the 18 urban areas of Victoria.
The eighteen offices are like eighteen branch offices. Each office has a P9 in charge, but in most cases he or she will not show up. Basically, the highest-level leader you can see is P8.
Lu Manqing's mother, Lu Fangling, is the head of the Wellington office. She had previously gone to Jiangcheng County to set up a branch for her ex-husband and daughter.
Now that Jiangcheng County has been destroyed and her daughter has decided to come to Victoria, she has no reason to stay in the branch and is transferred back to the headquarters.
Li Shaoheng's situation is rather special, as he is in a combat department directly under the decision-making level. The peculiarity of his abilities makes many P9s feel difficult to deal with, and he is also very suitable for dealing with unknown weirdness.
In other words, he can fight anyone on equal terms, and even if he faces a being of the philosopher's level, he can still have a chance to escape.
...as long as their abilities aren't sealed.
Because Luo Ling and his group were related to the Jiangcheng County incident, they were arranged to the Wellington office and managed by Lu Fangling.
When they arrived at the manor, they looked at it from the outside and saw the same scene as usual, with servants bustling about and the doorman drowsy.
But when you walk in, the scene changes instantly.
Dozens of company employees in black suits were divided into several lines. A passionate leader stood on a podium, seemingly making a pre-war mobilization.
"Wellington Office guys! This is an emergency like never before! I know I've said this before, but this is a real emergency!"
"A demon who just massacred 400,000 innocent people has extended his hand to Victoria, trying to get his hands on everything we have, bringing his disaster here to exterminate us all!"
"We can't agree to this. For the sake of the company and everyone, we must do our best! We can't let other offices steal our limelight!"
The leader is excited and enthusiastic, but the employees below are listless.
No matter who is woken up early in the morning, how can they be in high spirits, let alone such a meaningless speech, which has to be done every time there is a collective mobilization.
However, after the leader's last sentence, everyone exploded in an instant.
"If our Wellington team performs well enough in this incident, I will directly apply to the headquarters and ask them to agree to change the set dinner menu to a buffet with 18 types of dishes."
"Okay! For the evening... for the company! Fight! Fight!"
"It's just the White Witch. Even if she shows up in person, for the sake of our company, we will definitely take her down and make her pay for her crimes!"
"..."
Suddenly, the crowd was excited.
Hearing this, Luo Ling couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly.
She just showed up and did nothing, why is she being accused of so many things...
I am not some evil devil, and besides, are the people in the Wellington office so weird...
In addition to the speeches, there were several leaders sitting calmly nearby, including Granny Lu.
The arrival of Luo Ling and others was inconspicuous. Only a few people noticed them and then simply passed them by.
Only one person's eyes lit up instantly and she walked over quickly. It was the maid who had received Luo Ling before.
"Ms. Luo Ling, you are here."
The maid was as cold as ever, but she revealed a strange enthusiasm.
She was one of the few people who were not leaders and did not participate in the mobilization.
"Who is this..."
Cen Xiangyun stuck her head out and asked.
"Just call me Eve," the maid skillfully took out her business card and handed it to several people one by one, even Elsa was not exempted, "Next, I will lead you to carry out the commission."
Luo Ling took the business card. What was written on it was quite concise. In addition to the contact information, there was also her code name and route.
The "Judgment" path, codenamed "Iron Fist", is introduced as "excellent at killing with uppercuts, specializing in killing all-powerful dogs."
"Oh, you're the one who was noted down... Oh no, our leader?"
Lu Manqing looked at the maid, trying to figure out how she could have offended that petty person.
"I can't say I'm your leader, but I will be leading you for the next period of time." Eve said calmly and quickly, "But you don't have to be so reserved. I'm just a colleague. In fact, I should thank you, especially Miss Luo Ling."
"Ok?"
Luo Ling raised his head and almost asked, "Did the photos sell for a lot of money?"
As a good kid who has been frugal since childhood, Luo Ling is quite sensitive about money. How could he take his own money and not give a share?
"If Miss Luo Ling hadn't directly appointed me as the team leader, I would have had to follow the main force to investigate the appearance of the "White Witch" last night. It would be dangerous and troublesome, and it would not be as easy as a novice's mission."
Eve waved her hand and looked at Luo Ling with an extremely passionate gaze.
Not only did she make a small fortune yesterday, but she also got rid of a troublesome task. Miss Luo Ling is truly a lucky star.
"Newbie mission..."
Luo Ling recalled the not-so-pleasant experience of the last novice mission, and inexplicably felt a sense of PTSD when he heard this word.
At this moment, Lu Manqing asked a key question.
"Isn't this all about the White Witch? Why is it still dangerous or not?"
"No, no, no, this is different, completely different." Eve stretched out her fingers and waved them, and continued, "Last night, the bosses held an emergency meeting and used various methods to speculate and verify, and came to one conclusion. The vision last night came from the White Witch herself, and it is very likely that she has designated an 'agent'."
You even know this?
Hearing this, Luo Ling was quite surprised.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems reasonable.
In the history of the "company", it has solved several high-risk and strange incidents, and there are countless dangerous and strange things. It must be familiar with all of these, even more than Luo Ling.
It is not impossible to infer the truth of the matter through some clues.
Seeing that the few people seemed to have no reaction, Eve knew that they probably didn't know how terrible the agent was. She sneered and said,
"Under normal circumstances, the weakest of these 'agents' can be compared to a ninth-order awakener. Only P8 or above are qualified to deal with them. A P7 will almost certainly die if they deal with them alone. Even if a P8 leads the team, the casualty rate is extremely high."
"Yes, really?"
Luo Ling suddenly felt a little guilty, as the agent she appointed seemed to be only at the sixth level...
But considering that the person she designated was an ordinary person before, it was amazing enough that he could become as good as a sixth-level awakener overnight.
Of course, what is amazing is not the strength, but the fact that ordinary people can accept the high-risk and strange power...
The reason why it is said that the agent's strength must be at least level nine is because without this kind of strength, it would be difficult to withstand even the dangerous and strange gazes.
It has to be said that this is all due to the particularity of Puppet Rumor's abilities. It is extremely biased, with maximum secrecy and spreadability, but relatively low lethality.
"However, there is a high probability that I won't meet him, but I am afraid that I might meet him." Eve looked around and lowered her voice, "It's hard to say for others, but I don't want to die. Thanks to Miss Luo Ling for pulling me here to lead the newcomers."
At this moment, Eve was truly grateful to Luo Ling.
But only Luo Ling knew that there was actually no danger. Not to mention that Alyssa's strength was basically equal to Eve's, even if she was really strong, there was no danger.
It’s not just because Luo Ling doesn’t want to take action against the “company”, on the other hand...it’s impossible to find it!
As long as he is not exposed voluntarily, it is almost impossible to find Puppet Yao in the vast crowd. Ji Ying has been searching for more than ten years, and even his own consciousness has been annihilated, but he still cannot see the location of Puppet Yao's body.
Ji Ying's true strength is actually at the P9 level. After all, her team is able to kill Puppet Rumor at another level... although the detailed reasons are very complicated.
In fact, Luo Ling felt that novice missions were more likely to be dangerous.
She couldn't trust her luck too much.
But considering Eve's grateful expression, Luo Ling swallowed all these and just asked,
"When do we leave?"
"Right now, it seems they are about to leave as well."
Eve glanced at several queues and whistled at a few of them, as if to show off that she had only received a commission from the Novice Village, rather than a dangerous mission that might involve facing an agent.
Needless to say, several colleagues were gnashing their teeth in hatred.
"Do we need to make any preparations?" Cen Xiangyun asked.
"No need, it's just a routine exploration." Eve waved her hand, "We have investigated these so-called hatcheries several times before. In fact, they are all fake, just relying on some means to cover up.
"In fact, the other offices have almost finished their investigations. It is estimated that the White Witch's apostles are carrying out revenge killings. The motives and reasons for the deaths can basically be found, and the suspected murderers have basically disappeared.
"This White Witch is indeed a terrifying demon. She has killed enough people herself, and she also encouraged her subordinates to use such cruel means to kill people for revenge... Even in the high-risk and weird situation, she is an extremely tyrannical existence."
Luo Ling listened without changing her expression, because she already knew the truth of the matter.
They are not apostles at all, but the pioneers of evil spirits. Most of the murderers are members of the evil cult who stole her abilities and did the murders.
However, having said that, it seems that we have some clues as to why the evil pioneer would do this.
"Are we going to involve the Apostles? But what is the Apostles like... Are the strange Apostles fighting on their own, or are they somewhat organized..."
