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

He really wouldn't just stay at the stage where he would put a gun to someone's head and execute them only after everything was settled.

"Non-professional combatants" does not mean that they have no combat capability. These are two different concepts.

However, there are usually people protecting him when he travels, so he hardly needs to take any action.

"Who asked you that? I mean, you just..."

Tang Shuang frowned slightly, and her tone became even lower.

"How did you say I discovered the killer? Maybe it was because of my upgraded ability?"

Xu Shi interrupted her again, thought for a moment and replied, "I can feel some of the things that cannot be seen by the naked eye."

"Entropy increase of evil thoughts" is a psychic power. In the terms of fairy tales, it should be called spiritual consciousness or something like that. It is normal to give him such an ability as a gift.

When he just reached A-, he was able to defend against Lin Yue's assassination. Now that the assassin girl's seed has completed the closed loop, he has been completely and steadily promoted to the A+ level, and his perception range is even greater.

In this respect, he is better than professional fighters.

Anyway, he is definitely better than the one in front of him. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but remind him, "Speaking of which, even if you become the governor in the future, you can't be too lax, otherwise it will be bad if you suffer because of this..."

"shut up!"

This time it was Tang Shuang's turn to interrupt him. Her voice instantly rose octaves, giving Xu Shi a fright.

"What I want to say is... Xu Shi, you're a fucking bastard!"

Then he noticed that Tang Shuang's tone was unusually tearful, "It's fun to scare people, right?!"

"Who's scaring...what do you mean?"

Xu Shi couldn't help but frown and looked at her and asked.

"After something like this happened, why can you still look so nonchalant?"

Tang Shuang glared back angrily, "Do you know how I felt when you pointed the gun at me and said those words to me just now?!"

She really couldn't help wanting to cry.

Judging from her current state, she was really scared this time. Of course, it was not because she was almost ambushed by someone, which was nothing to her.

To be honest, let alone a killer rushing towards her with a bomb, even if there were ten more, she wouldn't be too worried - the people in the Inspection Bureau have all lived on the edge of a knife, and their psychological qualities have long been tempered.

What she was really afraid of was Xu Shi’s actions just now, or some bad associations that might arise from it.

Now she has sorted out the causes and consequences, but it was too late just now. When Xu Shi pointed a gun at her, she could clearly feel the extreme despair and fear that arose subconsciously and exploded in her body in an instant, making it hard to breathe.

This was exactly what she had been worried about - Tang Shuang knew very well that the difference in concepts between her and Xu Shi was ultimately an obstacle that could not be avoided, and on this issue, it was difficult for either of them to change the other. The most they could do was to take a step back and treat the symptoms rather than the root cause.

Then there is a problem. Now that everyone has the same goal, they can still get by like this. But let's think about the worst case scenario. If one day, their goals are not consistent, what will happen?

Tang Shuang was not willing to think about this question. The current situation was booming. Why was there any need to talk about such depressing topics? Wasn't it the same before? Just saying something like "I won't forgive you if you commit a crime in the future" and then nothing happened.

But what happened just now forced her to face the problem again, and even helped her find the answer.

The answer is that she found the situation was far worse than she had imagined, because when facing Xu Shi's gun, her first reaction was not to resist, but she felt her brain go blank, as if the sky was falling and the earth was collapsing.

How could this be... Tang Shuang asked the question in her heart even though she knew the answer. In fact, she also understood that this was because she had a good impression of Xu Shi, and it was not just an ordinary good impression.

Otherwise, she wouldn't force herself to compromise, and wouldn't try to influence him and change him from time to time, or even find ways to be alone with him - she would only do this if she hopes a person can become a better person, otherwise, no one would care about you.

Tang Shuang swore that when they were throwing cups at each other in the past, she could never have imagined that their relationship would become what it is today, and she didn't want it to change back.

So, even though she knew Xu Shi was doing this to save her, she still couldn't help but vent her concerns in this way.

"…It was an emergency just now, don't let your imagination run wild."

Seeing her lose her composure like this, Xu Shi probably guessed what she was thinking and whispered something to comfort her.

His initial actions were indeed easy to cause misunderstanding. If you put yourself in his shoes, you will realize that he is probably not much better.

No wonder you look like you've lost your soul, he muttered to himself. Come to think of it, Tang Shuang doesn't look like someone who would be scared by such a thing.

You said this matter caused... As he thought about it, he became a little angry. He was supposed to be happy today, but it turned out like this. Where can he go to seek justice?

Damn it, the “Forsaken” deserve to die.

"I, I know, I just couldn't control myself for a moment..."

Tang Shuang came back to his senses and responded softly.

"What do you know? If you really knew, you wouldn't be like this."

Xu Shi smiled and sighed, "Do you really think I will shoot you?"

"I... do you want to hear the truth?"

Tang Shuang hesitated for a moment and said.

"of course."

"…To be honest, I really can't be 100% sure."

Director Tang gritted his teeth and decided to speak frankly, "It's still the same now...why don't you answer a question for me now?"

"You said."

"If, I mean if, we encounter an irreconcilable conflict in the future, what will you do?"

Tang Shuang asked seriously.

"I will... Oh, I can't answer this question for you."

Xu Shi thought about it, then shook his head in confusion.

"Why can't you answer?"

Tang Shuang pressed on, "Just tell me what you want. I can handle it."

"Because, the situation you described will never happen, right?"

Xu Shi rolled his eyes at her. "I admit that we have different ideas, but please think carefully. Given the current situation, will there really be an 'irreconcilable contradiction'?"

"Why not... uh..."

Director Tang was about to refute subconsciously, but suddenly realized that Xu Shi was right.

She had always been worried that one day their goals would become inconsistent, but the problem was that the current goal seemed to be the final goal...

There is nothing bigger than the goal of "making Night Sin City stable and prosperous". Anyway, she can't think of any other major issues. So if you want to talk about disagreements, is it that Xu Shi wants to overthrow the stability and prosperity that she has built with her own hands, or is she determined to make this city a mess?

It seems that neither is likely...

Ah this...

"Moreover, even if we disagree in the future, do we really have to let it develop to the point where it cannot be reconciled?"

Seeing that she had come to her senses, Xu Shi continued to persuade her, "You are not someone like Long Tianding, Shen Qin, and Lin Wenhua. This means there will always be room between us."

"The fact that you have given in and compromised with me more than once is the best evidence... so why can't you think that I won't treat you the same way?"

"What you said... seems to make sense."

Tang Shuang rubbed her nose. She didn't object to this statement, and was this a promise he made?

For a moment, she suddenly felt a little enlightened - a very important part of her concern was that she was unsure of Xu Shi's attitude towards her. Would this guy be willing to make concessions to take care of her feelings?

She didn't ask it herself, how can you ask it? It doesn't mean that if you do this, you must ask others to do the same, otherwise it would be kidnapping.

But she also overlooked a problem - Xu Shi was indeed cunning, but he was too frank in this regard. He could even tell you bluntly that he wanted to squeeze her out and poach her to become his own subordinate. What else could he not say openly?

He will even be like he is now, and will take the initiative to express his attitude even if you don't ask.

So, he was just shutting himself in and sulking, right? Anyway, it is certain that those who are involved are often confused, otherwise why would he have ended up in a dead end just now...

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a lot more relaxed and even smiled at herself.

Many things are not as complicated as she thinks.

"And you said you weren't imagining things."

Xu Shi couldn't help laughing when he saw this. It was best that she could realize this.

Of course, what he said is not absolute. The probability of "irreconcilable contradictions" appearing is infinitely close to zero, but it does not mean that they will not appear.

What should we do if such an extremely rare event really happens?

Director Xu's answer was, I will give you a clear arrangement based on your ability! Not only do you do useless things all day long, but you even dared to yell at me just now. What are you trying to do?

Humph.

“…Stop the car.”

Tang Shuang certainly didn't know about his bad thoughts, but after she understood them, she was indeed in a good mood and her tone became much lighter.

"What to do?"

Xu Shi blinked and parked the car to the side as she said.

"come over."

Director Tang waved his hand mysteriously, motioning him to come closer, "Come here."

"Uh-huh!"

Before Xu Shi could react, she held his face and kissed him hard.

Hiss, I was in a good mood yesterday, but today I got stuck as soon as I started writing. Did someone steal my literary energy during the Chinese exam today?

This chapter took a long time to revise, and even yesterday's 183 was adjusted a little bit, and only then did I come up with a relatively satisfactory version.

The original idea was that Xu Shi was using this incident to deliberately test Tang Shuang, and then do some high-intensity PUA. But after thinking about it, although Director Xu is bad, he shouldn't be the type to play around and test the humanity of those close to him, otherwise it would seem a bit annoying...

It’s good like this now, so easy, so nice.

I will sort out the subsequent plot in a bit. I will just update this once today to ensure quality first and quantity second.

There are still three more chapters to go for the leader, and they will be arranged as soon as possible.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 186 Xu Shi, you bastard are scaring me again, right? !

I was kissed...
