Fog Formula-Warning Book of Fog City Search Chief's Strange Talk - Chapter nine

“…”

Seeing that Shenxiu’s expression softened after hearing the words, he obviously felt that this was a reasonable question, but he still seemed dissatisfied with the occasion when Xi Wei raised this question, and there was no good spirit in his words.

“If the case is solved, the overtime pay will be tripled, and there will be a bonus.” The search leader said in a straight line, but before Xi Wei could show a happy face, the content of the words immediately changed sharply.

“If the case cannot be solved, all bonuses will be cancelled.”

“Ah! Why is this!” The girl’s face immediately swelled up, but seeing Shenxiu ignored her tricks, she just looked out of the window again.

“…”

It wasn’t until he made this action that Xi Wei realized that there was something abnormal. [Investigator sees Shenxiu] It is definitely not someone who would treat this place as a private occasion just because there are only two people in the meeting room at the moment. In his eyes, work is always work, even if there is only one person in the meeting room, it is also meeting time. So when Xi Wei raised the issue of overtime pay before, he was not happy, because it was not an issue related to the content of the meeting. But he still answered her because he is the boss and obliged to answer the salary question.

Of course, such a person would not sit in a daze in the meeting room for no reason—unless daze is the content of the job at the moment.

He was waiting—Xi Wei finally reacted.

But the problem is——

What is he waiting for?

If it is a meeting on weekdays, it is actually possible for other people to discuss it by themselves. The employees of the Search Bureau are the most experienced investigators, and they can handle many cases by themselves. But at the moment there were only Xi Wei and Jian Shenxiu in the conference room, and Xi Wei was the only one singing a one-man show when Jian Shenxiu didn’t speak.

Xi Wei was at a loss and didn’t know how to deal with the situation in front of her. Seeing that Shenxiu is not easy to deal with is a problem that everyone in the search bureau knows, but how to deal with certain behaviors of Jian Shenxiu-the entire search bureau is probably only known to Marquesias.

Xi Wei was a newcomer to the search bureau not long ago, and this was the first time she was working as an assistant for Jian Shenxiu. But in fact, coming here for a long time may not be of any use. The only person in the entire search bureau who has dealt with matters one-on-one with Jian Shenxiu is Markesias.

He is Jian Shenxiu’s most trusted assistant, and also the only designated assistant. Xi Wei just temporarily takes over his shift when he is away.

But the conference room can’t just be quiet like this all the time, Xi Wei didn’t know why, but she still had to bite the bullet and ask.

“You…” Xi Wei put one hand on the table and leaned forward slightly, looking a little uncertain.

“Are you waiting for something?”

“…Hmm.” Seeing Shenxiu leaning on the chair, with long-distance gaze and slender back, he turned his head slightly after hearing Xi Wei’s question, glanced at her with those red pupils, and then hummed.

His tone didn’t fluctuate, and most of the time, his tone didn’t change. People at his level don’t need anger or volume to increase their sense of oppression. He simply sits there and has his own majesty.

“Two phone calls after a minute’s wait.”

Two phone calls? Xi Wei was taken aback for a moment, because Shen Xiu didn’t look like she was going to wait for a long time. She didn’t know why Jian Shenxiu was so sure that a call would come in soon, but for no reason she remembered a sentence a senior said to her when she first entered the search bureau a long time ago.

The Chief Inspector was actually very patient, he just simply hated wasting time. If you ask him, he will patiently listen to you no matter what, but if he thinks it is nonsense after listening, he will directly deduct your bonus. So it’s best to speak quickly in front of him, whether it’s a private matter or a business matter.

Let such a person sit quietly in front of the table and wait for the “two phone calls” during the meeting…

What kind of content will it be?

“Ring ring ring…”

Suddenly, a bell rang on the table. It was Jian Shenxiu’s cell phone, and the ringtone was a majestic symphony. Xi Wei’s mind moved slightly when she heard the ringtone, the symphony felt quite familiar to her, but she couldn’t remember which piece it was for a while.

“Mr. Xiu.”

Seeing that Shenxiu picked up the phone, Xi Wei couldn’t hear what was said on the phone from Xi Wei’s position, but could only vaguely distinguish the clear and clear youthful voice of Marchesias on the other side of the microphone.

“Okay, got it. Inform the other groups to collect their own evidence, and don’t let them run away now that [the tail] is caught.”

After listening for a while, the chief inspector gave such instructions to the microphone, and then hung up the phone calmly. Put the phone back on the table.

“This call is…” Xi Wei hesitated, not knowing whether to ask or not.

“Xias called, and the action has come to fruition.”

Seeing that Shenxiu had no intention of hiding it, he explained it casually. However, before Xi Wei continued to ask, the ringing of the phone was thought of again in the meeting room.

“Ding ding ding—”

This time it was the landline in the meeting room that rang, and it was the internal line of the Navi City Hall, which was picked up from the front desk.

The girl was at a loss for a while, logically speaking, this should be her job, but this was a call to see Shenxiu, so she didn’t dare to reach out to answer it immediately. It wasn’t until she saw Shenxiu cast a questioning look at her from the side that he quickly reached out his hand to answer the phone as if he was shocked by electricity, and pressed the speakerphone.

“Hi, hello, this is the Search Bureau.”

“Hello, this is the office hall on the first floor. Someone from the Biological Laboratory of Yukimizawa University of Science and Technology came and said that the analysis commissioned by them before had the results. Now the person is on the first floor and asked for a meeting.”

From the speakers of the landline came the sleepy voice of the attendant on the first floor. When the call came, the pointer just pointed to 6:30 in the morning, and the duty officer on the first floor had just turned over.

“…” Xi Wei turned her head to look at Jian Shenxiu, and saw the man nodded to her again.

“Please come up.” So Xi Wei turned her head to the phone and said, “Conference Room 5007 on the 50th floor, the Chief Inspector and I are waiting for him here.”

“Okay, please wait a moment.” The other end of the phone hung up the communication, and a beeping busy tone came from the microphone of the landline.

“Even if the elevator goes straight to the 50th floor, it takes forty seconds. Counting the walking time, you have about three minutes to close your eyes and rest for a while.”

After hanging up the phone, Shenxiu was sitting on a chair, with his hands folded in front of him, calmly spoke to Xi Wei, and gave instructions casually.

“There is a report to be heard soon.”

The girl looked at him and was silent for a while.

Just as he said, the call came in on time. In this way, the man had anticipated this, or in other words—all this was originally his plan. Others have a meeting with Xi Wei here, but the layout is far from here. The case that happened in the early hours of this morning was just an accident to him, so he handled it himself. However, other than this accident, everything was still going on in an orderly manner according to his ideas, and everything that happened later was within his control. within the plan.

She suddenly remembered what Shenxiu said to someone when she was in the harbor——

[Some people underestimated me, if I hadn’t prepared everything I wouldn’t have come here. ]

Navi City Hall Search Bureau, Parliament, and Prosecutor’s Office are divided into three powers, and Jian Shenxiu is the highest officer of the Search Bureau. Who dares to underestimate him? And as the Chief Inspector, he…

What are you preparing in secret?
