Chapter 12 Borrowing a Picture
In just over ten minutes of breakfast time, Gu Ming heard Jiang Siyi's name at least twenty times.
It is not difficult to understand. Linjiang County is originally a small place. In addition, it is relatively safe. There have been no powerful monsters in the past ten years. Naturally, it will not receive too much attention from the superiors. Most of the people working here are locals.
It is not easy to get an intern, so it will naturally attract everyone's attention. What's more, Jiang Siyi is not only beautiful, but also said to have a first-class talent.
It stands to reason that such seed players are the focus of training by Beidou's senior management. Even if they need to go to the grassroots level for training during the internship period, they should go to a big city at the level of Yushan City, where there is a platform to fully display their talents.
After chatting with colleagues for a while, Gu Ming put away the tableware and left the cafeteria. Just a few minutes after arriving at the office, he heard footsteps and Xiao Hu's attentive voice in the corridor.
"Siyi, this whole floor is for the Tianquan Department. There is no one else except Gu Ming and Director Wei. There is nothing to see. How about I take you to see our Yaoguang Department. In Linjiang Branch, Yaoguang Department is the most important department with the most members."
"Thank you for your kindness. I came here to do business."
"What business can there be here? There is nothing valuable except the visualization map, and these visualization maps below the fifth grade are useless to you."
As they were talking, Jiang Siyi and Xiao Hu walked into Gu Ming's office.
Today, Jiang Siyi changed into a coat with a tight turtleneck sweater inside. Her black hair was as smooth as waves. A pair of high-heeled leather boots wrapped her white long legs, and the exposed part was mesh black silk.
"Rice!" Gu Ming looked at her calmly for a few more times and gave a high score of 9.7 in his heart.
"Xiao Gu, it's Siyi's first day at work, I brought her here to get familiar with her, you can introduce the situation." Xiao Hu said in a somewhat old-fashioned tone, as if deliberately suppressing Gu Ming.
He still remembered that it was Gu Ming who carried Jiang Siyi out of Qingquan Town yesterday, and it was Gu Ming who had been taking care of Jiang Siyi after returning. Xiao Hu also complained to Zhang Hanzhong privately about this matter, saying that he didn't know how to fight for such a big advantage for his subordinates.
"We had an in-depth discussion last night." Gu Ming didn't have a good face for Xiao Hu, not for him personally, but for the entire Yaoguang Department.
"Xiao Hu, you go and do your work first, I have something to say to Gu Ming." Jiang Siyi said with a polite smile.
"Siyi, you see, no one here is more familiar than me. If you have anything, just ask me directly. Although Xiao Gu has some qualifications, he is more introverted and stays in the archives room all day. He is not as familiar with many things as I am." Although Xiao Hu was a little surprised, he was still trying to create opportunities.
The polite smile gradually disappeared, and Jiang Siyi turned around and said, "Team Leader Xiao, please step aside for a moment. I have something serious to discuss with Gu Ming."
"Okay then." At this point, Xiao Hu couldn't stay and could only say to Gu Ming, "Xiao Gu, well, you treat Siyi well. Don't say anything you don't understand. If you have any questions, call me."
"Got it." Gu Ming waved his hand unhappily and drove Xiao Hu away quickly.
"Tell me what you want to talk to me about. If it's official business, I'm sorry, my computer is broken and I can't do it." Gu Ming didn't even raise his head when he spoke, and his attention was focused on the book in his hand.
Jiang Siyi took a look and saw "Jiuzhou Chronicles" on the cover. This book is the official history of Jiuzhou, recording major events after the revival of spiritual energy.
"I want to borrow the second-grade thunder method visualization map." Jiang Siyi walked to the opposite side of Gu Ming and said with a slap on the table.
"I just said that the computer is broken, and you also saw it last night. The Dao rhyme of the Thunder Method Diagram was too strong, causing the computer to short-circuit."
"Then use the manual process."
Gu Ming glanced at Jiang Siyi, thinking that the long-legged girl was well prepared. She was just an intern and was very familiar with the rules and regulations. However, since the other party had brought it up, Gu Ming couldn't continue to slack off.
"Okay, please show your ID and permission. I remind you that if you want to borrow the second-grade visualization diagram, you need at least the first-level authorization of Yushan City." Gu Ming said without thinking, with a completely official attitude. He has been an archive manager for many years. Although he has never borrowed a second-grade visualization diagram, the authorization regulations have long been imprinted in his mind.
This time it was Jiang Siyi's turn to be stunned. This time, carrying the second-grade Thunder Method Diagram was confidential, and he did not obtain authorization from the Yushan City branch in advance.
"What? No?" Gu Ming said, "If there is no authorization, please forgive me for being powerless. Regulations are regulations, and we must work according to the regulations."
"I have verbal authorization from my leader."
"Words are not enough." Gu Ming said, "Now everything we do requires trace management. I can't take away the second-grade visualization map based on your words. If something goes wrong, I can't bear the responsibility."
"You..." Jiang Siyi was so angry that she wanted to explode, but she also knew that what Gu Ming said was true and that there was nothing wrong with his way of handling it. But somehow, seeing Gu Ming's face, she couldn't help getting angry.
The atmosphere was a little stiff, and Gu Ming kept reading the book with concentration, as if the boring words in the book were more attractive than the beautiful woman in front of him.
Just then, Wei Dafa squeezed in from the door frame. He looked at the two and said with a smile: "Siyi is here so early. Gu Ming, I just received a call from my superior, authorizing Siyi to borrow the second-grade thunder method visualization diagram. In addition, you are responsible for protecting her while she is meditating."
"I am responsible for protecting her?"
"Any questions?" Wei Dafa said, "You are the most familiar with the visualization diagram in the entire Linjiang branch. If you don't do it, who will? Do you want me to do it myself?"
"I know, Director." Gu Ming closed the book reluctantly and said to Jiang Siyi, "Wait for me."
After that, he skillfully opened the drawer, took out the work registration book, wrote and drew for a while, and then handed it to Jiang Siyi and said, "Sign and put your fingerprints."
While Jiang Siyi was signing, Gu Ming reported to Wei Dafa about the computer burnout and tactfully asked if he could take a few days off. Of course, he was ruthlessly rejected. Wei Dafa generously offered to move his office computer over and contacted the colleague in charge of technology to install the system on the spot.
This completely cut off Gu Ming's escape route. He opened the safe dejectedly and took out the visualization map that he had just put in last night.
"When you comprehend, just let me know." Gu Ming handed the visualization map to Jiang Siyi.
"I want to comprehend now. You are slacking off anyway, so why not come and protect me." Jiang Siyi said expressionlessly.
"The practice room in the basement is ready." Wei Dafa made up for it on the side, and threw a small paper ball to Gu Ming, saying, "If you encounter any problems, follow the steps above."
Gu Ming always felt that the smile on the face of this middle-aged fat man was meaningful, and thought: "Did the director know that the long legs would come to borrow the map?"
Jiang Siyi's forehead was black, thinking, can you be more careless?
At this moment, three short and one long alarms sounded in the building, and the expressions of the three people changed.
Three short and one long alarms mean that there are intermediate or higher monsters nearby, and members above the Tongxuan realm need to gather urgently to deal with them.
"I'll go too." Jiang Siyi said.
Wei Dafa thought for a moment and said, "No need. It's your first day here, so there's no reason to send you to the front line. Don't worry, Zhang Hanzhong will take care of it. You can concentrate on comprehending the visualization map."
"By the way, let me remind you that the second-grade visualization map will release a strong Taoist rhyme when comprehending it. Although such things have not happened in Linjiang County, you still have to be careful. If someone has bad intentions, it will be easy to sense the location of the visualization map."
