What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

Zhong Chongshan waved his hand, gesturing for her to sit down, then looked at Gu Yuqiu and asked, "If you felt the occasion was inconvenient and there were some things you couldn't say, now is an opportunity."

Gu Yuqiu said, "I really have no opinion."

"No?"

Zhong Chongshan looked at her, a rare surprise on his face. He thought to himself, "If you have nothing to say to me, why are you staying here?"

Lin Mushi was also looking at Gu Yuqiu, thinking to herself, "You're sitting here and not leaving... are you really just teasing me?"

Gu Yuqiu stood up, walked towards the door, and said lazily, "Let's go."

Without a second thought, Lin Mushi got up and chased after him, just like she had done before.

Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Zhong Chongshan recalled his youth and smiled with a touch of nostalgia, feeling a strange sense of beauty.

"but……"

Gu Yuqiu suddenly stopped and said, "Although I don't have any opinion, I do have some feelings."

Zhong Chongshan asked in a slightly deep voice, "How do you feel?"

Gu Yuqiu didn't turn around and continued, "The news tonight is true, but it's not necessarily all of it."

Lin Mushi looked at her in confusion, wondering if feelings could be used to calculate things.

"You mean..."

Zhong Chongshan thought about it seriously for a while and asked, "Is someone or some force deliberately passing this message to the Special Affairs Bureau to distract us and then achieve their own goals?"

Gu Yuqiu said, "That's your guess."

Zhong Chongshan looked at her intently and then said, "If my guess is correct, then who do you think made this decision?"

Gu Yuqiu still didn't turn around and said, "I guess it's not the Church of the Sleeping Demons."

Zhong Chongshan said, "Then what is the purpose of this force? Could it be that they have already found the relics left behind by that person, but they just can't take them out quietly, so they have to use this method to attract attention?"

Gu Yuqiu repeated her previous statement: "That's just your guess."

Lin Mushi was not used to this way of talking; she felt it was too pretentious and meaningless.

"Thank you."

Zhong Chongshan noted these words down and asked no further questions.

Then, he suddenly realized a problem.

Why is Gu Yuqiu so easy to talk to today?

Just yesterday morning, he was outside the Junan Center building when he had a subtle but significant altercation with the other party.

Based on his understanding of Gu Yuqiu, this person should be the kind who holds grudges, and shouldn't be so easy to talk to.

As Zhong Chongshan pondered these things, his doubts grew, until the earlier scene flashed before his eyes, and he began to have a vague guess.

"So it was because of Lin Mushi?"

He laughed, thinking of the two rather well-matched figures from behind, and felt good about it.

……

……

"Although I still find it strange, you really are a good person."

"Ok?"

"If you really have a problem, why did you talk so much to the bureau chief? Why are you usually so high-profile, as if you're afraid others won't notice you?"

"It's just a matter of habit."

"So... what are the chances that your earlier speculation is true?"

"Wrong."

"what?"

Lin Mushi looked at her with a puzzled expression, wondering where she had said something wrong.

Gu Yuqiu corrected, "It's not my speculation, it's Zhong Chongshan's own idea, and it has nothing to do with me."

Lin Mushi thought to herself, "I understand," and quickly coughed, pretending to be serious as she said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

"So……"

Gu Yuqiu turned to look at her, a half-smile on her face, and said, "How are you going to apologize to me?"

Chapter 41: The Beginning of Doubt

Lin Mushi disagreed, thinking to herself that she had said such things too many times, so where was the deterrent effect?

She pretended not to hear anything and naturally changed the subject, asking, "Shall we go sit at our workstations or go to the break room?"

The Special Affairs Bureau is located in the city's central business district. It is a huge office building with a constant flow of people around it, and naturally, it also has a variety of facilities inside.

The lounge in the story is not far from a bar or coffee shop, covering a huge area, and most of the drinks and food are provided free of charge.

As the situation in Xinchu becomes increasingly tense, the higher-ups of the Special Affairs Bureau have transferred a lot of people from other regions. Since these members do not have fixed workstations, the break room has been quite lively lately.

Gu Yuqiu shook his head and said, "The latter suggestion is stupid."

Lin Mushi was taken aback, wondering what she meant by that. Then she remembered her face and quickly nodded, saying, "Then come sit over there for a bit."

If she were to sit idly in the lounge with Gu Yuqiu, and the latter were to show his face, a discussion would inevitably break out until everyone looked over... How could that feel like a rest?

In fact, if she hadn't looked at that face for so long, and her various emotions had gradually faded, she wouldn't have been able to remain calm either.

"In my memory..."

Gu Yuqiu said, "My office is quite big."

Lin Mushi glanced at her and said with a sigh, "It is quite big, but you don't work, so it's just sitting empty most of the time. It's a bit of a waste."

Gu Yuqiu raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "Are you envious?"

"Sure."

Lin Mushi looked completely at ease.

Then she looked at Gu Yuqiu with some confusion and said, "I've always wanted a promotion and a raise, and I've mentioned it to you several times. Don't you remember at all?"

Gu Yuqiu said, "But I don't feel like you've tried."

Lin Mushi said irritably, "Isn't that because you have so many things to do?"

Gu Yuqiu smiled and said, "I think it's because your will is not strong enough."

"Since I can't argue with you anyway, whatever you say makes sense."

Lin Mushi sighed, ignored her, and walked towards the office.

After leaving the meeting room, Gu Yuqiu put her mask and hat back on, looking very low-key. Although she was still noticeable, she was not so eye-catching after all.

Just as the two were about to arrive at the long-vacant office, Lin Mushi suddenly had an idea.

"or……"

She stopped and said in a subtle tone, "How about we have a match?"

Gu Yuqiu asked, "The reason?"

Lin Mushi thought for a moment and said, "The transfer order from above hasn't come down yet, so sitting in your office now would be a waste of time. I think it's good to get some exercise."

As she spoke, her voice gradually faded, and she realized that she was really indulging in wishful thinking.

Given Gu Yuqiu's unusually lazy temperament, she's usually too lazy to even leave the house, so she's hardly the type to want to exercise.

Just then, three words reached her ears.

"all right."

Gu Yuqiu turned her head to meet her gaze and said with a light laugh.

Lin Mushi didn't hear carefully and thought she was refusing. Just as she was about to change the subject, she suddenly realized what she meant and was stunned.

She blinked, looking incredulous, and asked, "You actually agreed?"

Gu Yuqiu asked curiously, "Why can't I agree?"

Lin Mushi hesitated for a moment, but decided to be honest and said seriously, "Because you are usually really lazy and don't want to do anything. I'm almost becoming your maid."

Gu Yuqiu said, "It's not like I'm short of money, so why should I make trouble for myself? Besides, wasting my life doing nothing is a kind of happiness."

Lin Mushi was speechless, because this was the kind of life she wanted to live.

She shook her head, didn't continue speaking, and turned to walk towards the elevator.

……

……

The Special Affairs Bureau provides a venue for combat sparring among superhumans, located in the basement of the office building and in a specially designated suburb.

The two were still waiting for their transfer orders, so they couldn't go to the suburbs. They were left with only one option.

"Please remember this: if any damage is caused beyond the scope of coverage, you will be responsible for the repair costs. Do you understand?"

The staff member sitting at the registration desk gave a routine explanation and then handed the two a card.

Lin Mushi smiled and nodded, then glanced at the number before leading Gu Yuqiu toward the training room.

"Actually, you don't need to care about these words."

As she walked, she said, "This building is built to very high standards, with the help of superhumans. It's incredibly stable. The two of us won't be able to cause any problems."

Gu Yuqiu thought to herself that the building was indeed well-built, but demolishing it would be troublesome.

Because in the past, she would have needed to take a quick look before the building collapsed.

……

……

Meanwhile, visitors also arrived in another area of ​​the Secret Service building's underground basement.

After a short but rigorous application process, Su Yan followed the staff to an interrogation room and sat down.
