Director Tang was also a little nervous. After all, it was his first time cooking... and looking at Xu Shi, he didn't seem very satisfied...
"Actually... it's OK, a little bit... ha, salty..."
Xu Shi swallowed hard, his voice became a little hoarse, and he finally recovered after taking several sips of water.
"But my suggestion is that since we are not short of money, we can just go out to eat if we really can't afford it."
"So you don't like it? I'm so sorry."
Tang Shuang rolled her eyes. No matter how politely the other party spoke, she knew that her cooking skills were definitely not that good. She felt inexplicably unhappy.
"Don't worry, I didn't say I don't like it."
Seeing this, Xu Shi smiled and said, "I mean you can do better... Come closer and I'll teach you a trick."
"Really?"
Tang Shuang foolishly came over, thinking that he really had some trick up his sleeve.
After hearing this, she finally realized what was happening and blushed as she slapped him. "What kind of a trick is this? Can you think better?"
"What do you mean by a trick? How do you know if it works if you don't try it?"
"……Oh."
Director Tang responded dryly, mustered up the courage to do as he said, put the lunch box aside, and whispered, "Well, now I'm going to help you cast a magic to make the food delicious..."
Draw a circle with your left hand, draw a circle with your right hand, then make a heart shape and sprinkle it on the lunch box...
"No, no, it won't work at all!"
She really didn't have the courage to finish the whole routine that Xu Shi had taught her. She just wanted to roll on the ground out of shame, "Eat it if you want, forget it if you don't want!"
Xu Shi couldn't help laughing, "Yes, yes, forget it, you are really not suitable for this, and I don't think I'm used to it either..."
He had mainly overlooked Director Tang's figure and personality - he had originally wanted her to serve like a maid cafe just for the contrast, but now it seemed that it was not going to work, the difference in style was too great and it was just funny and awkward...
I'm afraid we have to find someone like Gu Yi for this. Miss Black Rabbit is at the right age to wear white silk... Or we can try catching an old aunt? A loli maid seems to be good too, not to mention that she is an old actress, so there is no need to worry about stage fright.
However, the fact that Tang Shuang is willing to humble herself and try something that is completely inconsistent with her character is the most interesting thing in itself. Or you can say that you can find the feeling of campus romance from her.
Anyway, Xu Shi is enjoying it, and is not even in a hurry to go further. There are plenty of people to find that, but what is important is the feeling, the feeling.
The final result was that the two of them went to buy fast food to eat. After lunch, Director Tang's shame gradually disappeared.
"By the way, do you feel anything strange today?"
Crumpling up the hamburger wrapper in her hand, she got down to business. "We've been to a lot of places this morning, but I always feel like someone is watching us. The inspection results are not as good as yesterday. Many places are just pretending."
"That's normal, sis. Is this your first day on patrol as a leader?"
Xu Shi didn't care about it. "Knowing that we may show up at any time, who would dare not work hard? Even if it's just a face-saving job, I have to leave a good impression on you."
What's more important is that he is also here - if it's just Tang Shuang, the Inspection Director or even the Governor, who comes to inspect, the major financial groups may not buy her account, but it's different for him. If he says anything casually, the Night Sin City will tremble. If he doesn't cheer up and slack off, he's courting death.
What’s more, there was yesterday’s raid. It would be strange if the situation today is the same.
and.
He seemed to have noticed something and glanced at the corner not far away intentionally or unintentionally.
Su Lin, who was hiding there, suddenly dodged.
No way...the young master discovered himself?
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 188 Do You Really Think I Can’t Find You?
Su Lin was startled when she noticed Xu Shi's gaze directed at her.
It won't really be discovered, right?
She was very confident in her stealth skills. She had also been trained in the field team for several years. Coupled with her ability to come and go without a trace, based on the young master's ability... it shouldn't be possible no matter how you think about it.
But if he didn't notice, why would he look at me for no reason?
Director Su thought for a moment and decided to observe the situation for a while.
"Xu Shi, what are you looking at?"
Tang Shuang also noticed his abnormality and asked curiously.
"……nothing."
Xu Shi came back to his senses, smiled and waved his hands, "It's just a sneaky and timid cat... Let's go, let's go to District 7 this afternoon? I have an appointment with Ding Jun and Lin Yue, you have something to discuss with them too, right?"
"Oh."
Tang Shuang didn't think much about it, and took his arm and got into the car, "No, who is leading who on patrol? Why are you arranging the destination again..."
Seeing this scene, Su Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Great, it seems not.
I told you, my lurking skills are still pretty impressive!
What she didn't know was that Xu Shi's mental power was even more powerful. Not only did he sense her presence, he even knew her escape route clearly.
This is called playing hard to get.
……
Regardless of the effectiveness of Director Su's clumsy tracking operation, Xu Shi and Tang Shuang did gain a lot in the past four or five days.
Although they were the ones who finalized the general outline of Night Crime City, the specific implementation might not be consistent with their expectations. After a round of inspection, they found many potential drawbacks and hidden dangers, which helped them to avoid a lot of trouble.
This is the truth. It is said that reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. Although this metaphor may not be appropriate, if you just sit in the office and work behind closed doors, no matter how brilliant your ideas are, in the end you can only create castles in the air.
Even for Tang Shuang, it was the first time that she had a calm exchange of views with these gang leaders in Sin City in the form of a discussion - in the past, she would directly lead the team to arrest people, and as soon as they met, they would be on the verge of a fight and would not give in to each other, and everything they said was full of gunpowder.
Now that the identity and form have changed, the old ways are of course no longer feasible, and we still have to resolve it in a peaceful way.
Although the two parties had had many disagreements in the past, with the help of Xu Shi's mediation, the talks went unexpectedly smoothly.
"The City Hall still believes that Sin City will still be left to you to manage. We will only send specialists and offices to supervise it."
At the last day's meeting, Director Tang seriously concluded, "We would even prefer not to use the word 'supervision', but considering the overall situation in Sin City in the past, I'm afraid it won't be possible in a short period of time."
"So, please let both of us work together and make progress together?"
“…I understand.”
Lin Yue, who was sitting opposite her, smiled and behaved properly and elegantly, "This is what I hope to see."
"I heard that Governor Tang and Chairman Xu have been visiting Sin City these days. I'm sure you've seen a lot of things with your own eyes. Spark has already integrated some of the remnants of Dragon City and other scattered gangs. I estimate that within a month, the previous gang model will be basically transformed."
This speed is definitely not slow. In "Dragon City", a lean camel is bigger than a horse. It is not easy to control various resources and recruit its personnel. The scattered small gangs are all stubborn. The fact that she can make such a promise shows that she is very concerned about this matter.
"This is the filing document. Governor Tang, please review it."
Lin Xing on the side handed over a few data bricks at the right time, obviously he had prepared it in advance.
"This couldn't be better."
Tang Shuang was very satisfied with this. "It also includes Chief Song and Chief Ding... both of you?"
"Oh, yes, yes, I have no objection either."
Ding Jun seemed a little distracted, and obviously didn't care much about this matter. He just said a few perfunctory words when he heard it.
"Chief Ding probably doesn't have the heart to deal with these, right?"
Xu Shi joked, "Governor Tang may not know that this guy recently sold a lot of Sin City's assets, and used the money to invest in a lot of Night City's industries... He's trying to steal my food."
"No, no, Mr. Xu, you are joking."
Ding Jun waved his hands hurriedly, indicating that he had no such idea at all, and then found an excuse to slip away.
Xu Shi didn't mind it. Every move of the other party was under his eyes, so it wouldn't cause any trouble. Even the investments he made were made after he had given instructions...
In fact, he still finds it a little funny when he thinks about it, because Ding Jun's approach is definitely not wise - Sin City today is different from the past. After the reconstruction is completed, it will be a huge blue ocean. On the contrary, Night City is an already saturated red ocean. It was reasonable to do so in the past, but now it is hard to see the direction...
However, he also asked Ding Jun, who did not regret it, and was very interested in going to Night City to show his talents and build a career. Perhaps this was his long-cherished wish? Or perhaps in his eyes, only Night City was the ladder to the top.
Xu Shi didn't stop him. Ding Jun chose the road himself, so he didn't bother to interfere. He just helped him keep in touch. After all, the agreed things had to be fulfilled.
He would even be happier to see Ding Jun withdraw voluntarily, because this would mean that Lin Yue could control the entire Sin City more quickly and efficiently and become the voice that has the final say here.
As for Song Ziyou? There's no need to worry... He got almost nothing from the redistribution of Dragon City's property this time, and Xie Qingyan doesn't seem to be willing to help him anymore. Not to mention that he will gradually become a vassal or even disappear in the future, strictly speaking, he is not even qualified to sit at the negotiation table now, he is just making up the numbers.
So he could only smile awkwardly, "Just listen to the two leaders of "Xinghuo", "Baitie" will give the utmost support no matter what."
He didn't want to stay here anymore. What was he doing here? To entertain others?
"Ha, that's fine too, just discuss it among yourselves."
Tang Shuang didn't care that the two guys ran away one after the other, and she was even happy to see it happen - she also hoped that Sin City could be as unified as possible, so that negotiations and everything else would be easier...
Thinking back to the past, why was this place such a mess? Wasn't it because of the big and small gangs that occupied the mountain and acted like kings and refused to obey discipline?
"Then I wish Sin City a smooth and renewed look."
After explaining everything that needed to be explained, she stood up and extended her hand to Lin Yue, ready to say goodbye.
"Okay, happy cooperation...ah..."
Lin Yue was about to stand up, but suddenly she shuddered as if she had received an electric shock. She sat back weakly, her pretty face instantly turning red.
"Huh? What's wrong with you?"
“…No, nothing…”
Lin Yue waved her hand, supported by the table, and stood up with difficulty. She shook hands with Tang Shuang hastily, "It's just... I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable..."
"Sister has been very busy these past two days, maybe she has caught a cold?"
Lin Xing smoothed things over for her, "Maybe I have a cold... I'm so sorry."
"...Lei Chief, please take care of your health."
Tang Shuang always felt that something was wrong, but couldn't put his finger on it, so he just followed Lin Xing's words and said something polite.
She remembered that the younger sister was more talkative among the two sisters, so why is it that the older sister is taking the lead today?
