It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

In this situation, how could she not be obedient?

But then again, Xia Wuyou's psychological quality is indeed very strong. Even after being pulled for so long, his first reaction was not to surrender, but to fight to the death with himself.

This was also within Xu Shi's expectations - he suffered a tragic accident when he was young and watched his relatives die in front of him. Afterwards, he had to learn to carry the burden of life alone on his tender shoulders.

After joining the "Snake Ring", she has been doing dangerous work in the field department, involving life and death... Such experience is really not comparable to that of a little kid like Gu Yi.

Fortunately, he was well prepared and used "Evil Thought Entropy" to easily break down her last bit of defense and completely control the situation.

Otherwise it would be really troublesome... Xu Shi muttered to himself as he glanced around the restaurant. Everyone who was still having dinner was silent. No one dared to have any opinion about the commotion that had just happened.

Hey, this is the reaction a normal person should have when facing a villain like him.

Su Lin didn't think about it in this way. From her point of view, superpowers have too many uncertainties, and there is no such thing as "because I know what my superpowers are, so I am in a hurry to awaken them."

It was probably just a coincidence, which just served as the icing on the cake.

But she was still very surprised, because she had no idea when Xu Shi knew Xia Wuyou's background so well.

It was the same with Gu Yi last time... I had never seen him say these things before!

Is this still the young master who only knew how to spend his time drinking, car racing and partying?

If she still had some doubts before, after experiencing this incident, she was completely sure that Xu Shi was hiding his abilities before.

"Master, how do you know Xia Wuyou's true identity?"

She still couldn't help herself and asked cautiously.

"As a group director, isn't it normal for you to know the situation of your employees?"

Of course Xu Shi would not give a direct answer, but calmly drank the tea in front of him.

"…It was my fault for neglecting my duty."

Su Lin paused when she heard this, then lowered her eyes in fear, "Please punish me, Master."

It can be seen that although she thought it was a good thing from the bottom of her heart, Xu Shi's sudden exposure of his skills still made her feel a little uneasy.

The words he used to perfunctorily deal with her were also taken by her as a warning to herself, the human resources director.

After all, this is supposed to be her job...if a disaster really happens, she won't be able to escape responsibility either.

"What are you doing?"

Xu Shi was a little surprised by her reaction. "I'm not blaming you. There's no need to be so... uh..."

Before he could finish his words, he suddenly felt dizzy.

My heart rate instantly increased, a tearing feeling spread in my mind, and the sounds around me became distorted and blurry in my ears.

When he looked at Su Lin again, he suddenly had a strange idea.

Speaking of which, although it is not mentioned in the original book, is she really that trustworthy?

He knew very well what kind of person he was before. How could anyone really follow such a playboy so wholeheartedly?

Does she have other thoughts? Should we investigate that as well?

Thinking of this, Xu Shi suddenly felt his thoughts a little confused, and his breathing became unconsciously rapid.

"Master?"

Su Lin was a little panicked when she saw this, but she soon realized what was happening. She hurriedly took out a medicine bottle and fed him the capsules.

The drug took effect very quickly, and I woke up in less than a minute. The distracting thoughts in my mind faded away like the tide.

"call……"

After calming down for a while, he was still frightened, "I just..."

"I'm sorry, Master. I didn't think it through."

Su Lin said worriedly, "It should be a complication caused by your supernatural power. Since this is your first time, your reaction should be stronger."

"I should have reminded you earlier. Fortunately, I always carried inhibitors..."

"…It's okay, you're thoughtful."

After a while, I came to my senses and realized that this was it.

Knowing the plot, he certainly knew what the complications were, in addition to his own special abilities.

Suspicious.

A more professional term is paranoia.

However, the original body never cared about this at all. Coupled with his eye-catching operations that kept refreshing the bottom line, this complication eventually left him with no one to use, and he fell into severe madness.

This was one of the key factors that led to his failure.

The blocker that Su Lin took was a targeted drug used to relieve symptoms.

Of course, this thing is only effective for mental illness, and physical symptoms cannot be alleviated by it.

"...If I remember correctly, Su Lin should also have mental complications?"

Speaking of this, he suddenly became curious, "And you are an A-level upgrader, so the symptoms should be more serious...but I don't think I've seen you take medicine?"

"Yes, after using my ability, I will fall into an extremely manic state."

Su Lin nodded, not hiding her weakness from him, "But I have been trained, and now I can control myself without drugs."

Xu Shi became even more curious, "On your own? How do you control yourself?"

“…listening to music, soothing songs can help calm your mood.”

Su Lin pointed to the earphones on her left ear and said, "If you are willing, I can also share my experience with you... But this takes time. Right now, you'd better take blockers in time after using your superpowers to avoid unnecessary invasion."

"Okay, got it."

Xu Wen took the medicine bottle, smiled and sighed.

There's really no need to doubt her... The fact is that Su Lin has been in the Xu family since she was seven years old, and has been following him diligently all these years.

From a servant to a bodyguard, and now to the right-hand man of the group... Even in the original book, no matter how much Shen He tried to win her over, she still firmly followed him until she gave her life.

Her loyalty is beyond doubt. It can be said that if he cannot even trust her, there is no one in the world worthy of his trust.

But then again, I really didn't get to know her well before, and I just treated her like a servant.

Thinking of this, Xu Shi secretly rolled his eyes. No wonder his original body was covered with gauze. Can he blame others for this...

"Have you finished eating? Do you want me to order you another cup of black coffee?"

Thinking of this, he shook his head slightly, then looked at his childhood sweetheart with a smile.

Hey?

Hearing this, Su Lin seemed a little surprised.

Does the young master actually know my preferences?

He had never said anything like this before...she was really flattered.

After a brief silence, Su Lin smiled unconsciously.

"Ah."

Snake Ring Heavy Industry, 18:00 p.m.

Xia Wuyou always leaves work on time, without wasting even a minute, like a precision machine.

Today was no exception, except that she looked even more hurried than usual, as if she was trying to escape from here.

However, she usually kept to herself, so her colleagues in the field department didn't notice anything unusual.

After taking the subway back to his residence anxiously, Xia Wuyou followed "Xinghuo"'s instructions, turned on the computer, downloaded and started a game.

"God's presence"

The high pressure in Night City makes many workers rely on video games as a cheap and effective way to relax.

"Shenlin" is the most popular large-scale MMORPG game nowadays. Whenever you log in, you can see hundreds of thousands of people online at the same time.

However, Xia Wuyou was not very interested in it, so she simply created a character and then controlled the character to come to the agreed location.

In the dim alley, someone had already been waiting for her arrival.

[Yinhe: You are here, have you brought what I need? ]

[ahsiaoshd: Well, the personnel configuration for tomorrow's operation is...]

Halfway through typing, Xia Wuyou inevitably got stuck.

She was still a little hesitant in her heart... But after a moment of silence, she finally forced her eyes away from the inhibitor on the table, and picked up the note Xu Shi gave her.

[ahsiaoshd: Three Type IV combat teams, forty TC-II tactical drones, cargo divided into four heavy-duty trucks, I will lead the team personally.]

As she typed this sentence, Xia Wuyou felt as if her fingers were filled with lead, and every key press drained away all her strength.

However, the person she was in contact with naturally wouldn't know this.

【Ginga: (▽`) Great! Just as I expected, the Snake Ring has indeed strengthened its defenses... Thank you so much, otherwise we would have suffered a great loss.】

【ahsiaoshd: ... Yeah. 】

【Yinhe: I will greet the operation personnel, you also have to be careful, otherwise I am afraid you will be in danger... By the way, can I treat you to a meal after the operation is completed?

Actually, I miss you a lot. When we were little, Uncle Xia always sent you to Tianhe to play. We didn’t have to worry about anything back then, and you always fought with me for snacks...】

【ahsiaoshd: Yeah, let’s talk about it later. I’m going to take a shower. You should also... go to bed early. 】

After sending this message, Xia Wuyou hurriedly logged off and turned off the screen.

Her haste did not arouse Shen He's suspicion. After logging out of the game, he hurriedly found the man in the sweatshirt.

"The Snake Ring has strengthened its staffing. Is everything ok with you, Old Chen? Do you want me to transfer Lei Song back to work with you..."

"No, I can handle this situation."

The sweatshirt man named Chen Fang patted his chest and shook his head, "Trust me, Chief Shen, I will fight the first battle to overthrow the consortium!"

“…Okay, then let’s do our best!”

Shen He paused, then bumped fists with him vigorously.

You can see that he is very happy now.

However, what he didn't know was that inside the rental house, Xia Wuyou collapsed weakly on a chair, closed his eyes in despair, and tears fell uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes.

Why, why do you want to bring up those past events...

sorry……

But I can't go back...
