"do not know."
Aso Maruka raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes: "As I said, what I'm good at is only practical skills, and I'm not an expert in ability development. If you really want to be an expert, you can't even see it. How could I possibly see it?"
"...After all, I have been retired for nineteen years."
Lin Yun shook his head: "You also know that the country's research content is changing with each passing day. Nineteen years is enough time to produce some latest results that I don't know about."
"Then why don't you go find the Chief and ask?"
Aso Maruka looked at him: "Is the chief here?"
"Emerald...huh?" Lin Yun was silent.
In fact, he had considered this option. He even had a hunch that if he went to look for emeralds, there would be a high probability that a solution would be found for this problem.
However, this also means that the daughter must meet the gem scepter, which will inevitably be accompanied by more unstable factors.
He has always tried his best to avoid involving Lin Xiaolu in national affairs, but the reality is always difficult to achieve. It seems that as his daughter goes deeper and deeper on the path of a magical girl, there is a force driving everything, making everything more difficult. She has connections with people and things from more countries.
Should we continue to prevent it, or let it go? Lin Yun hadn't thought it through until now.
"You guys are still as overprotective as before..."
Seeing that Lin Yun had not spoken for a long time, Aso Maruka, who probably guessed what he was thinking, sighed: "Although I am not very familiar with the Chief, from what I know about her, she should be the best to deal with in the Gem Scepter. I’m a human being, is it necessary to take all kinds of precautions?”
"I can't give a conclusion about what kind of person she is, but when dealing with the gem scepter, I can't help but think too much." Lin Yun whispered.
"Is it because you are supposed to be a sapphire?" Maruka Aso asked coldly.
Lin Yun was silent again.
He couldn't help but remain silent, because Aso Maruka's words really hit a painful point.
"...In short, I will consider this matter, but unless it is absolutely necessary, I still hope that we can solve it on our own."
After a long while, he spoke again and changed the subject rather abruptly: "I will try some other methods in a few days. Before that, I ask you to teach her more. After all, if you are just talking about combat skills, you Probably the one who stands out the most in our squad.
"So you don't want to talk about it? Even if you flatter me, you won't let me forget the topic just now."
Aso Maruka smiled narrowly: "But since it is rare for you to praise others, I will accept your praise."
This is not flattery. Lin Yun thought to himself.
Because this is the fact, Aso Maruka is the one who has the most in-depth research on combat skills among the old Fangting City team.
Although in her own words, this is not a talent, but a "helpless act without talent."
Among the members of the old team, Cornflower's progress in developing abilities can be said to be unreasonable, while Sakura's ability itself is extremely powerful. As for Ranxiang, it can be called an "Encyclopedia of Magic Techniques" "A general research genius.
Only Margaret, that is, Maruka Aso, is just the standard of ordinary magical girls. Her magic power is not outstanding, her abilities are not overly strong, and her talent for learning spells is only good or not bad.
In such a situation, the path ultimately chosen is "technique".
This is destined to be a difficult road to walk, so until Lin Yun retired, Aso Maruka's achievements as a magical girl were not outstanding. When most people mentioned the code name "Margaret", they would only think of " This is Sakura and Cornflower's teammates."
However, just as she resolutely chose to leave Fangting to become a singer, Aso Maruka's persistence and perseverance in one thing are unimaginable to ordinary people.
The fact is that at the end of this persistence, Aso Maruka finally got her own flower card.
It does not come from military exploits, nor does it come from research. It is just a posthumous title after reaching the ultimate level in a certain field.
A flower card that simply symbolizes "the skill has been accomplished".
Chapter 204 Secretary to the Director
Hong Siyu's day starts in the kitchen filled with the aroma of coffee.
After working as a migrant worker for many years, a cup of coffee in the morning has become her daily habit. No matter how sleepy she feels when she gets up from bed, as long as she smells the familiar smell coming from the coffee machine, she will feel a little more energetic.
It was still early, and the sky outside the window was still a bit dark, but the first ray of sunlight had already penetrated the clouds, coating the floor of the single apartment with a thin golden glow. Hong Siyu was busy making breakfast while humming a song.
Lift the pot, turn off the heat, and wipe the stove.
Wash cups, dispense liquid, and brew coffee.
After a skillful operation, boiled eggs, vegetable porridge, and coffee were already placed on the small round table next to the stove. This was Hongsi and today's breakfast.
After slowly finishing the food on the table, Hong Siyu began to change her clothes. But when she changed into her professional clothes and walked to the bathroom mirror, subconsciously wanting to put on makeup, her movements stopped as her eyes touched the mirror.
In the mirror, the girl who looked extremely young, as if she was still in high school, was looking at her.
No, this is me as a high school student.
Thinking of this, Hong Siyu raised the corners of her mouth, wishing she could smile forever, but she had laughed many days ago. The self-control that an adult should have prevented her from losing her composure, but she coughed a few times without being alarmed.
A few days ago, as her treatment at Emerald ended, she was finally able to completely return to her normal life, and the most important thing about returning to normal life was of course to continue working.
However, the current Hong Siyu did not return to the Bureau with her original identity. Now she rejoined the company with a subtle identity of "Hong Siyu's niece", and her first job after joining the company was also... Very simple - Secretary to the Secretary.
Thanks to the identity of "his niece" and the assignment from the state, other people in the foreign strategy bureau just regarded this as another airborne landing and did not think that this matter had anything to do with Lin Yun. Otherwise, if he hired such a secretary who looked underage, Lin Yun would probably be looked at differently by everyone in the bureau.
In fact, even now, many people are doubting the relationship between Lin Yun and the new secretary.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Hong Siyu, and no one can stop her now.
Arriving at the Weisi Bureau early, Hong Siyu went to the still empty director's office alone, wiping the table, sorting documents, pouring boiling water, watering the green plants... everything was done with ease.
By the time she finished all the chores, it was already eight o'clock in the morning, and the originally quiet office building began to be filled with noisy sounds.
This is also the time when Lin Yun usually arrives at work. Hong Siyu has figured out the rules in just a few days and has stuck the time at this point very accurately.
Standing by the window, she looked at her image again in the reflection of the window glass, making sure that her hair was not messed up and her clothes were still neat. Then she sat down with satisfaction and looked at the office door with bright eyes.
She was waiting for the door to be opened, and as soon as the person behind the door walked in, she would immediately go up to claim credit.
You know, what she is wearing today is the clothes she and Lin Yun chose together before; and although the makeup on her face is very light, it is the best solution to suit her temperament; although her hair looks very natural, But I also went to the beauty salon yesterday to have my hair straightened and styled, in order to create an absolutely eye-catching image of a "beautiful girl in workplace literature".
All elements are carefully selected, and every angle is carefully customized, based on her mature aesthetic developed through years of hard work in society, and careful consideration of Lin Yun's preferences... Combined with her walking on the road in the morning, passers-by turn their heads. The rate is almost 100%, which makes her extremely confident in her current look. This is the horn she uses to launch her attack.
Come on, senior.
She thought silently in her mind.
And this blazing faith seemed to penetrate through the door and infected God. Not long after, she saw the office door being pushed open.
A figure in a suit walked in.
"Good morning, senior."
She immediately put on a long-rehearsed smile on her face, holding the documents she had just picked, her outstretched hand and body posture were just right: "Have you had breakfast? If you don't mind, why don't we come together... eh?" "
Halfway through his words, Hong Siyucai suddenly noticed that the person who walked in from outside seemed to be wrong.
Although she was wearing a suit, it was obviously a woman who walked in. She was tall, with fair skin, and wore sunglasses. Her orange hair was quite eye-catching, but now it was all tied into a bun at the back of her head, making her look very heroic at first glance.
stranger? guest? No...it feels a bit familiar...
Hong Siyu looked at this woman's appearance, her mind running wildly, constantly trying to find the identity that matched the other person from her memory. Unfortunately, before she could come up with an answer, the woman in front of her suddenly spoke:
——"95 points."
And what she said was just a series of short numbers.
"95 points?"
Their thoughts were drawn into two parallel lines for a while. Hong Siyu, whose brain was slightly overloaded, could only repeat what the other person said: "Excuse me... what does this mean?"
"Charm, seduction, or cuteness, in short, is my rating for your performance just now."
The orange-haired woman held up her chin with one hand and said to Hong Siyu.
Although there was a layer of sunglasses between them, Hong Siyu could feel that the other party was looking at her from head to toe. Not only that, his eyes even lingered for a moment on several places on her body that had clearly put effort into dressing up, making her feel confused for a moment. A feeling of being completely seen through.
This made her feel a little uncomfortable, so she subconsciously hugged the documents in front of her with both hands and stepped back.
However, the woman in front of her didn't seem to intend to let her go. After Hong Siyu took two steps back, she followed closely and took two steps forward: "Do you know where the deduction points are?"
"Deduction...deduction of points?" Hong Siyu stuttered in reply.
"The point of deducting points is that the direction is wrong. Compared with this kind of lively and enthusiastic invitation, which is pretending to be generous, it is actually a bit shy, and the invitation with soft request can arouse the other party's sense of guilt more."
The woman wiped her chin: "But this can be considered nitpicking. All in all, it is really cute! I like it very much! My lovely junior has made such preparations to welcome me, so it would be too much for me not to agree to your request!"
With that said, she finally distanced herself from Hong Siyu, turned around, and pushed the half-open door aside: "Let's go, you lead the way, I don't know where the canteen is."
However, when she took two steps toward the door, she realized that no one was following her.
"What's wrong?"
The woman turned around and asked in confusion: "Is there anything you haven't done yet?"
"No...I just want to say, who are you?"
Hong Siyu tried hard to maintain the smile on his face: "Please don't make such jokes. If you have an appointment to meet with the director, you can wait nearby..."
"Ah? Sister, you already called me 'senior', now you ask me who I am?"
The woman was also quite surprised and said: "Although you have never called me that before...what's going on?"
"Before? Never shouted like this?"
The woman's words seemed to press a switch, and the thoughts in her mind were connected like an electric current in an instant. Hong Siyu finally remembered why the appearance of the person in front of her looked familiar, and the strange words he said. To whom does the method belong?
——"You...ah? Yuanxiang?"
It’s just that, compared to surprise, the feeling after recognizing each other is closer to shock.
Chapter 205: Reunion suddenly feels like a dream
——"So, it's just because of this?"
Ten minutes later, in the director's office, Lin Yun stood aside, looking at the two people sitting on the sofa facing each other, and sighed inexplicably: "I just went to another department, why did you two get into trouble now?" ?”
"This is obviously senior's fault, right?"
Hongsi and Wenyan leaned forward and pointed to Aso Maranka, who was sitting opposite them. At this time, the old god was there: "Why didn't you tell me earlier that Maranka is back! And you didn't even mention it to me?"
"...This is not my problem. This guy didn't notify me before."
Lin Yun crossed his arms and looked away from Hong Siyu subconsciously: "How should I put it? Even if I know that a singer with the same name is coming to Fangting City to hold a concert, I can't confirm that it is him until I actually meet him. I'll tell you directly. If we find out in the end that we are not the same person at all, wouldn’t it be even more embarrassing if we make a mistake?”
