Enforcer's Handbook

Chapter 722 Good night, District 1

Fatigue, drowsiness, and my eyelids were so heavy that I could hardly open them.

Jock was gripped by these feelings all evening.

The hover car was driving on a preset track. This was the fourth time since he got on the car that he yawned. Jock had to take out the anti-fatigue medicine and take twice the usual dose.

Although he hadn't had a good night's sleep in the past few days, the mess that "Domination" and Hogg made one after another made him have no intention of falling asleep, but staying up late is normal for people like him, and with the help of anti-fatigue drugs, He shouldn't be like this.

Or is this a sign of aging?

But no matter what, he must ensure that tonight's meeting ends smoothly.

Jock steeled himself and arrived at the banquet hall ten minutes earlier than the agreed time.

Their guests followed their rule of never being late and knocked on the compartment door when the appointed time came. What followed was a feeling of chest tightness and shortness of breath.

The whole building became completely silent, and all sounds seemed to disappear with the appearance of the visitor.

"Long time no see, 'Emperor'."

Jock adjusted his breathing rhythm and spoke.

Several years have passed since the last meeting. Even for the congressmen, the whereabouts of the person in front of them have always been a secret. At the same time, the other person is also one of the few six-star rescuers who is not affected by the company and family. managed individuals.

There are only rumors that even after the end of the Dark Ages, the "Emperor" never stopped working.

Compared with the last time, the appearance of the "Emperor" has changed significantly.

His face has been completely mechanized, and almost no human part can be found. Anyone who appears in front of this image will probably be regarded as a robot.

Jock guessed that the opponent's level of prosthetic transformation might be as good as that of "Desolate Bones". Except for the brain, the other parts had long since lost original parts.

"Our time is precious, so let's just say what we have to say."

The pale blue light emitted by the "Emperor"'s prosthetic eye swept across Jock's body. He just stood in front of the table and seemed to have no intention of sitting down and having a long conversation with him.

For a person who has undergone a highly mechanized transformation, no matter how rich and delicious the food is, it has no appeal.

In order to adapt to the continuous fighting in various environments, he no longer needs to supplement his physical energy through food or nutritional injections.

"In fact, I would like to invite you to join us in the name of the High Council. We also hope to hear the voices of rescuers in decision-making."

"I will not join any organization."

An expected answer.

Jock knew that even the title of six-star rescuer and the title of "Emperor" were forcibly placed on this person's head by the council. In fact, he had never reported to the rescuer department, nor had he experienced any such experience. Assessment of any rescuer.

So far, the "Emperor" has maintained absolute neutrality in any political stance.

The reason is that he is not interested in any decisions of the coalition government.

"It seems that you haven't changed after all these years. This is not easy."

Every communication with the "Emperor" is extremely difficult. The latter is so taciturn that it is difficult to continue any conversation. More importantly, the closer you get to him, the more obvious the feeling of difficulty breathing will become. Just want to end the conversation as quickly as possible.

Jock thinks so now.

However, the High Council never imagined that they could convince the man in front of them through a meeting. They had already prepared information that could really arouse the other party's interest.

Jock pushed the prepared data chip towards the other party, "δ, you should have heard of this name."

The face that had been completely transformed into a machine no longer had any human expression. The "Emperor" just picked up the data chip from the table and inserted it into the data connector on the back of his neck. "I remember it, An out-of-control biological weapon created by Elimon Biological Laboratory."

"See for yourself, for some reason it's closely related to Jasmine."

This is the "bait" they tailor-made for the "Emperor". "After Jasmine came to the first district, she was suspected of participating in the assassination of the chairman of the jury. Some six-star candidates also revealed to us that she had approached them privately. , has spread some... remarks that are not conducive to the coalition government. It is said that δ has extremely strong interference psychic powers, and we are not sure whether she has been bewitched."

"I will find her and investigate this matter."

The 'Emperor' put away the data chip and before turning around to leave, he suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "You'd better go take a rest, your body is about to be unable to hold on."

"thanks for reminding."

Jiao Ke subconsciously touched his face, feeling a little embarrassed. Could it be that he was so haggard that others could tell at a glance?

However, before he had time to think about his rest plan, the sound coming from the door made his heart tremble. When he followed the sound, he found that the waiter in the banquet hall had bumped into the arms of the "Emperor", and the precious champagne Shattered to pieces on the ground.

The waiter was obviously frightened by this scene. When she raised her head, she met the "Emperor's" prosthetic eyes that were shining with scarlet light.

"Yeah, sorry, I dozed off!"

The waiter stuttered when she spoke, and she apologized in a panic. She didn't know what happened to her today. Although her work schedule was no different from her usual working hours, she felt so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes several times since the afternoon. Yes, I almost fell asleep while walking just now.

She was completely panicked, because they heard that the members of the High Council were going to receive an extremely important guest here. If they neglected the guest, it would not only be as simple as losing their job.

She heard that someone had mysteriously disappeared after offending a certain congressman. Although the company said that he was transferred to work in another city, everyone privately said that he was killed.

"I'm so sorry, I'll clean it up for you right away!"

"It's my responsibility."

Unexpectedly, the man in front of her who had been transformed like a mechanical demon actually let go of her arm and helped her stabilize her shaky body due to her weak legs. "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

After leaving these words, he walked straight towards the elevator.

As the man went away, the feeling of panic and chest tightness gradually diminished. She stayed there in a daze. It wasn't until the elevator reached the first floor that the strange feeling disappeared completely, and then she suddenly remembered something.

When he turned around, he met Jock's stern eyes.

"I'm sorry, I'll clean this place up right now!"

Looking at the waiter who hurriedly closed the cubicle door, Jock took a few deep breaths and decided to follow the advice from the "Emperor". After all, his prosthetic eyes may be equipped with some advanced biometric technology that can detect his The body is already in quite a bad state.

The meeting ended much earlier than he thought. This was also the advantage of dealing with people like the "Emperor", as unnecessary pleasantries were omitted, and even the dinner was also omitted.

Jock stayed alone in the cubicle and took a few bites after the dinner was served.

A deep sense of fatigue still enveloped him, making him unable to taste food. During the meal, he arranged work with his secretary via text message and decided to go home and have a good sleep tonight.

But his plan ultimately failed.

Just when he decided to drive the hover car directly back to his apartment, a fatal phone call came to his door again.

This time it was the secretary himself who brought the bad news.

Her voice sounded extremely weak. When reporting on work, you could even hear her yawning. You must know that his secretary was selected after many layers of selection. He had never behaved in such an unprofessional manner before. .

The bad news this time did not come from "Domination" or Hogg, but from their company itself.

Not long ago, there were a lot of signs of indolence on the job.

Most employees went to the break room at the same time and put themselves into hibernation bins. This unintentional action caused the hibernation bins of the entire company to be full, and those employees who tried to stick to their desks were ultimately unable to hold on and lay down. He fell asleep on the table.

Even the secretary herself is like that.

She originally wanted to take half a day off before her boss sent new work instructions.

This feeling is as if the employees' tense nerves have been cut off at the same time, and even anti-fatigue drugs cannot stop the spread of fatigue.

Jock was very dissatisfied with the secretary's report.

The work of the parliament these days was enough to make him miserable. He could not accept that his company was in trouble at this time. He had to change his plan to go home and sleep, and gave stern instructions to his secretary on the phone. , let those lazy employees get up and work quickly.

But after the outburst, the other end of the phone was eerily quiet.

After a while, he actually heard snoring.

The anger suddenly made him sober. Although his whole body sent him signals that he wanted to rest, he still summoned the spirit to summon the waiter. After paying the bill, he would return to the company to see who dared to Take the lead in being passive and slacking off.

However, what he received in response was silence.

Jiao Ke got angry all by himself, and then suddenly realized that the waiter had not come over. He pressed the summons button a few more times without belief. The cubicle was still surprisingly quiet, with a lonely feeling as if there was only one thing left in the world. He was left alone.

He quickly came to the door.

The broken glass and wine stains on the floor have been cleaned up, but there is not a single person in sight in the long corridor.

Jock walked along the corridor and finally found the waiter on a chair near the elevator.

She has fallen asleep.

Shu frowned and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, as if he had left all the troubles behind.

The moonlight shone on her body.
