Chapter 39: I don’t want to fight to the death but I can try my best
When Jiang Siyi walked out of Wei Dafa's office, she looked a little absent-minded.
She originally thought that being selected to become a night watchman in the Tianxuan Department was enough to prove her talent and ability, but after learning about Wei Dafa's entire layout for this secret realm and Gu Ming, she realized that there are always people better than you.
It turned out that Wei Dafa had laid out the entire plan a year ago and had anticipated all the results.
Of course, what surprised her the most was the identity of Yu Lei Zhenjun. Even their Jiang family didn't know these secrets, so where did Wei Dafa get them from?
This master who was called the highest and could not be higher by Gu Ming was indeed unfathomable. Wei Dafa had such a terrible mind and mansion. Her direct superior "Zero" and the leader of the Tianxuan Department, whose true face no one had ever seen, how terrible must they be.
In the following period of time, Linjiang County gradually returned to normal with the cooperation of various official departments. The pain left by the monster attack on the city will slowly heal over time, but the wound will scab over, but it will leave traces after all.
Under the auspices of Wei Dafa, the secret realm was concealed, and even few people in Beidou knew about it. The news media only learned that a large number of monsters appeared in the city that day, and the strange phenomenon that appeared on the Jade Pen Peak in Chixia was also said to be caused by the battle between Beidou's masters and powerful monsters.
Jiang Siyi guessed that the reason why Wei Dafa concealed the secret realm was, on the one hand, to prevent people from noticing Qianren's belonging, and on the other hand, to protect Gu Ming and not want his talent to be exposed to the public.
Gu Ming was a little out of shape during this period, and Jiang Siyi, who was temporarily his roommate, felt it most obviously. She felt that Gu Ming was worried and absent-minded in everything he did, and did not go to Wei Dafa to ask about the recognition of achievements.
Jiang Siyi recalled Wei Dafa's evaluation of Gu Ming. He had unparalleled talent, but he seemed to have no sense of belonging to Beidou and Jiuzhou. From Jiang Siyi's observation of Gu Ming, this was indeed the case.
In her eyes, Gu Ming didn't care much about most things. He didn't care about money, career, or interpersonal relationships, just like he didn't belong to this world.
He only cared about whether he could awaken, and the reason why he was so eager to awaken was just to protect himself.
"Gu Ming, what do you think about every day?" On this day, Jiang Siyi found Gu Ming lying on the sofa in a daze again. The small video on the screen of his mobile phone had been played for more than a dozen times. It wasn't a cross-dressing show of a young lady.
Gu Ming came back to his senses, glanced at Jiang Siyi's long legs swaying back and forth, and said, "I'm a normal man, what do you think I can think of?"
Jiang Siyi smiled, and a dangerous breath was released in her eyes. She deliberately leaned forward and looked at Gu Ming provocatively and said, "How can I guess if you don't say it, many things may be settled if you say it?"
Gu Ming said seriously, "I was thinking that you eat and drink in my house all day long, and I haven't seen you pay a penny for living expenses. There are also electricity, water, and garbage disposal fees that should be shared, right?"
Veins gradually appeared on Jiang Siyi's forehead, and he felt that there was no need to continue the communication.
Seeing that Gu Ming was obviously a scoundrel and had to put on a serious look, Jiang Siyi was angry, but more for Wei Dafa.
He thought so much for Gu Ming behind the scenes, and even used a C-level secret realm to test Gu Ming, but Gu Ming still looked like he was not enlightened, and did not understand his painstaking efforts at all.
Just when Jiang Siyi was about to get up and go back to her room to ignore Gu Ming, Gu Ming said again: "In addition to these trivial matters, I have really figured out one thing these days."
"What is it?" Jiang Siyi asked subconsciously.
"Actually, it's just some personal issues. Do you remember that I asked you why you joined Beidou in the secret realm?"
"I remember." Jiang Siyi recalled the situation that day, and heard Gu Ming continue: "At that time, you told me that the human race needs heroes, and I told you that I just want to experience the feeling of being a strong person."
"So what?"
"To be honest, the memorial service after returning to the branch touched me a lot. I began to slowly understand what you meant, and I also figured out how to go in the future."
"What is your answer?" Jiang Siyi showed a relieved look, thinking that Wei Dafa's thoughts were at least not completely in vain.
"I still have to work hard to awaken and become a strong man." After Gu Ming finished speaking, Jiang Siyi felt like she was being fooled, but she heard Gu Ming continue to say, "I found that Beidou is actually quite good."
"Remember to talk to Senior Wei after work tomorrow. I heard that the documents for merit evaluation are coming soon. If you still want to go to Yushan City, you have to tell Senior Wei as soon as possible." After speaking, Jiang Siyi got up and returned to the room. After closing the door, he took out his mobile phone and told Wei Dafa about the conversation with Gu Ming just now.
Before Wei Dafa's reply, he received a message from "Zero": "Go back to Yushan with Gu Ming."
There was only one message, Jiang Siyi turned off the screen of his mobile phone and fell into deep thought.
How did Zero know that Gu Ming would definitely go to Yushan?
Did Wei Dafa reveal it?
The next day, after Gu Ming had breakfast in the cafeteria, he went to Wei Dafa's office. At that time, there was an unopened document on Wei Dafa's desk.
When Wei Dafa saw Gu Ming, he seemed to have guessed his intention early in the morning and asked, "Have you thought about it?"
"Well... Director, is my achievement enough to be transferred to Yushan City?"
"Here you go." Wei Dafa handed the document on the table to Gu Ming and asked him to open it.
After opening it, Gu Ming found that the document bag contained a transfer letter, which was his transfer letter to Beidou Yushan City Branch, and his position was still the file manager.
"It turns out that the director has thought about it for me." Gu Ming hurriedly thanked him, but saw Wei Dafa looking at him meaningfully.
Wei Dafa asked: "Gu Ming, before I go through the transfer procedures for you, I have a question to ask you."
"Director, you say."
"If one day Beidou needs you to fight to the death for China, are you willing?"
Gu Ming was stunned for a moment, but he saw that Wei Dafa looked serious and didn't look like he was joking, so he said: "No, but I will try my best."
"You kid." Wei Dafa laughed. Although this answer was not what he wanted to hear most, it was the most in line with Gu Ming's true thoughts. If Gu Ming answered yes without hesitation, Wei Dafa might not dare to believe it.
Being able to do his best is already very good for Gu Ming, at least it means that he finally has a little more sense of belonging here.
"By the way, there is another thing, which is about your practice."
Hearing Wei Dafa talking about practice, Gu Ming was obviously more interested.
Wei Dafa asked: "Have you ever thought that even without relying on awakening, you can become the strongest person?"
