"Fine, you win! You've run into me today..."
"We've finally met an easy target!"
And so, Li Ji, the master of the kemonomimi (animal-eared girl) genre, continued to cook lunch amidst the bright spring sunshine.
"Dong dong dong."
"Who?"
Li Ji turned off the stove, took off his apron and hung it behind the kitchen door, muttering to himself, "What kind of weird wind is this today, bringing so much trouble?"
Li Ji walked quickly to the door and first looked outside through the peephole.
They found a man in a suit standing at the door.
Li Ji slowly opened the door, and the other person politely asked, "Are you Mr. Wan Feng?"
"It's me, what's wrong?"
"With all due respect, I am the board secretary of the Longxi Foundation. If Captain Wanfeng is willing, you may call me Secretary Chen."
Secretary Chen handed over his business card with both hands and said, "I'm here today to have a chat with Captain Wanfeng."
"The foundation's board secretary?"
Li Ji took the business card handed to him by Secretary Chen, and it was indeed as he had said.
Li Ji slowly opened the door and said, "Let's go inside and talk."
Upon hearing this, Secretary Chen immediately put on a smile and followed Li Ji into the house.
"You haven't eaten yet?" Secretary Chen said apologetically, clearly having smelled the aroma of food from the kitchen. "Then, so as not to delay your meal, I'll get straight to the point."
"I've come here today to discuss the matter of the Silent Texas operator with you." Secretary Chen opened the two briefcases in his hands, which were filled with neat stacks of Lungmen Dollars.
“Our boss really admires this agent and wants to see if you can bear to part with him. Here is the deposit; I will pay you by check after the job is done.”
Secretary Chen originally wanted to dissuade the boss from giving up on the recruitment, since the identities of the two people involved were rather mysterious.
But last night, a phone call from his boss gave him a severe dressing-down and even issued a death order.
So today he had no choice but to bite the bullet and give it a try.
"I wonder if you have this intention?"
The moment Li Ji saw Secretary Chen's business card, he already had a premonition.
He just didn't expect the other party to come to him so quickly and to be so blunt about the matter.
But since they've already come to us, let's see what tricks they have up their sleeves.
"If I lose this operator, shouldn't you compensate me more?"
Li Ji asked with a calm smile.
"Of course, if you are interested, we can also compensate you for the missing personnel with other six-star operators of the same level."
"Compensation at the same level?"
Li Ji seemed somewhat surprised, and then opened the laptop next to him and created a new Excel file.
"Tell me about the skill set, stats, and talents."
"What are you going to do...?"
"A watch? Never seen one before? Aren't they supposed to be at the same level? I need to take a look."
Li Ji looked at Secretary Chen, who was completely bewildered, with an expression that suggested he was looking at an amateur novice.
Even though Secretary Chen had experienced so many exchanges and recruitments of agents, he had never gone through this stage before.
"Um...she's right at the door. Should I go and call her in so she can talk to you?"
"Okay, time is precious, go and come back quickly."
Seeing that Li Ji had agreed, Secretary Chen immediately made a phone call and quickly walked to the door, returning shortly afterward with the female officer outside.
Li Ji's eyes lit up when he saw the female operator, not to mention her skill set multipliers and talents.
She is indeed pleasing to the eye; at least in terms of appearance, she doesn't lose out by too much.
But it's just that her outfit is a bit revealing...
Li Ji didn't want to comment too much on his personal interests.
However, just as the female agent was "sensibly" about to sit next to Li Ji, she was stopped in place by Li Ji's Great Wilderness Imprisonment Technique.
"Wait a minute, don't sit down yet. Didn't Secretary Chen tell you? First, talk about your skill set, multipliers, and talents. Let me calculate your total damage, DPH, and armor penetration threshold. Also, how is your buff rate, and how much does it cost?"
"And what cup do you have?"
Female operator: "???"
Secretary Chen: "???"
Chapter Twenty-Eight: Medium Cup, That's Enough.
"I...I have what cup?"
Sheng Yu looked at Secretary Chen beside her with a head full of questions. She could barely understand the previous part, but this sudden change of topic and the question about what kind of cup it was was.
What does it mean?
"I...I'm a C...C cup?"
She wasn't quite sure if she was asking about this cup.
Seeing that Secretary Chen also looked bewildered, she lost her target for help and hesitated for a few seconds before answering the question cautiously.
Sheng Yu was afraid that if she answered incorrectly or did not answer at all, she would be returned.
If she is returned, her life for the rest of her days will be ruined.
"No, who asked you about this cup?"
Li Ji looked at Sheng Yu with a puzzled expression, but then seemed to remember something and suddenly understood, "Oh, I forgot that this way of thinking isn't common among you. Let's calculate the damages then."
Li Ji didn't pay much attention; it was just that he had blurted out what kind of cup it was.
They completely forgot that this was another world, where there was no concept of using medium, large, or extra-large cups to define strength.
"What is a template?"
Li Ji asked this question first, since many templates have unique characteristics, and the templates need to be clarified before the next step of the calculation can be performed.
"Sword Master".
"Oh, not bad. Should we attack back or retreat on our own?"
"..."
Sheng Yu was taken aback. She looked at Li Ji as if he were an amateur. He had been quite professional just now, so why was he suddenly asking this question?
"To retake the attack or to retreat on our own."
Li Ji asked the question again, completely ignoring Sheng Yu's strange gaze. His voice was heavier than before, as if he was getting impatient.
It's as if to say: Don't make him wait too long for such a simple question.
Sheng Yu never expected Li Ji to ask such an idiotic question. Was there even a need to ask such a question?
When will the Sword Master be able to return to normal?
She gave a vague answer, but Li Ji didn't bother to elaborate and simply said:
"That means we're going to take back the offensive."
Li Ji looked up at the nervous Sheng Yu, and the smile on his lips was starting to crumble.
This was truly unexpected for Sheng Yu. Judging from Li Ji's "don't laugh at the challenge" attitude, could it be that the other party was already quite satisfied with her?
Sheng Yu was once again filled with questions.
The day passed by as if every step was unexpected.
He was first assigned to be an exchange operator early in the morning. He was hurriedly pulled out of bed and several stylists worked around him until noon.
In Secretary Chen's words, the plan was to create a flawless princess-like aura, at least in terms of appearance, so that the other party could not find any fault with it.
The last time we saw such a grand scene was probably when we went to exchange for operators from a top-tier team...
This made her think she was about to fly into a phoenix's nest!
Then she followed Secretary Chen to this old, dilapidated neighborhood.
Looking at the greasy pipes and walls, and the old building covered in moss, the 180-degree drop from a phoenix's nest to a chicken coop made her initially expectant heart plummet to the ground.
What kind of good team can a commander who lives in such a place lead?
This is definitely a random team!
Is there some operator in this team who looks like an angel and has caught the boss's eye?
But just as she stood outside, puzzled, she saw Secretary Chen rushing around, looking very eager.
This made her think that Wan Feng was some kind of reclusive master, which rekindled a glimmer of confidence in her.
