Odd Containment Specialist

Is it so shallow?

Xia Shou was surprised.

He didn't know how he floated up, but the scenery of the shallow sea was obviously much better than the deep sea. If he dreamed of this kind of sea every time, he would be happy to sleep a little longer.

After a brief surprise, Xia Shou found that he couldn't breathe.

As soon as he inhaled, big mouthfuls of bitter and salty sea water poured into his mouth. The strong discomfort made him instinctively want to struggle, and then a graceful figure suddenly swam out from behind the coral reef and came in front of him.

Then, two soft petals came up, representing the air of life from the mouth of another life form into Xia Shou's lungs. Like some kind of ritual, he suddenly became able to breathe freely in the sea.

Xia Shou calmed down from the shock and saw the creature in front of him clearly.

The other party had a slender and graceful human upper body and a slender and beautiful fish tail, exactly the same as the mermaid described in fairy tales.

The mermaid girl swung her tail and quietly wandered in the sea water, her red hair spread out like silk behind her.

The other party stared at him angrily, her eyes full of doubt.

For some reason, the other party gave him a very familiar feeling, like an old friend who was very close in the past but was forgotten by him.

Xia Shou stared at the other party's face, searching for a similar figure in his memory.

Just as he was thinking, the mermaid's body suddenly burst into small wounds, and then a large puff of blood mist spread in the sea water, spreading like a smoke bomb, more and more, with no sign of stopping...

He opened his eyes and saw the ceiling of the dormitory above his head.

The ruler number on his left eye was still more than a thousand meters.

"What a strange dream."

Xia Shou supported the bed board and sat up. The beautiful shallow sea scenery in the dream could be remembered as clearly as a photo, but the appearance of the mermaid became extremely blurred.

It was noon, and he slept all morning.

There were a lot of text messages on his phone, all of which were work arrangements from Shangguan Yan.

Yes... He almost forgot that the price of the mission was to work overtime for a month, and he was now an office worker.

Xia Shou turned up the bed sheet, took out the dead record notebook underneath, and opened it. The handwriting on the notebook was still blurry and he couldn't continue to turn the pages to read.

Come to think of it, it was actually only 24 hours since he traveled to the present. In fact, it was not a long time at all, but he had experienced a lot of things.

While Xia Shou was in a daze, a folded piece of clothing floated in front of him with a pair of transparent hands.

He was stunned for a moment before he realized that it was Alice who did it.

"Alice, are you awake?"

No response.

It seemed that she was not awake, she was just fulfilling the duties of a maid.

Xia Shou sighed, got dressed obediently, put on his coat with the help of Alice, and then a basin of warm water for washing his face was brought out from the bathroom.

The transparent hands wrung out the hot towel and gently wiped his face. At the same time, a comb was used to comb his hair that was messed up due to sleeping.

Xia Shou didn't know what he did, but he felt a slight force constantly applied to his limbs, guiding his hands and feet to move around, raising his hands and feet.

Then the socks, pants, etc. were automatically put on, and the process of putting them on was smoother and more comfortable than when he did it himself, without any hindrance at all.

Five minutes later, he was "forced" to wear the uniform and stood at the door of the dormitory.

"Uh... Thank you Alice."

Xia Shou didn't know how to describe this feeling.

Although he felt that he would look useless if he just let the maid do whatever she wanted, it was not bad to have his daily affairs arranged properly without doing anything.

"Anyway, I have to go to work first."

Although the current sinking speed is still within the safe range, it is not certain when the sinking will accelerate, so he must start looking for the next monster suitable for him to devour.

Xia Shou walked out of the dormitory, crossed the museum's campus, walked between employees and ordinary tourists, and finally entered the administrative office area and came to the office of the third department where he had been last night.

There were only six workstations in the office of the third department of the investigation, but there was not even one person.

He frowned, picked up his phone and read Shangguan Yan's text message again: [There may be no one in the office today. I have cleared your seat. It is next to me. All the work is on the computer. ]

Xia Shou pushed open the compartment further inside and walked into the minister's exclusive office. Sure enough, he saw a desk in the corner. He remembered that when he came here yesterday, there was still a potted plant in this place.

"Is it some kind of secretary work assigned to me?"

Apart from the work of secretary, Xia Shou really couldn't think of any reason to put his office in the leader's office.

"Forget it, the work that should be done still needs to be done. Let's take a look at the next work arrangement first."

Xia Shou turned on the computer. On the desktop were two programs, "Work Schedule" and "Prohibited Item Query". He held the mouse and hovered between the two for a while, and finally clicked on the latter first.

Before starting the official work, he still wanted to investigate the information about the Death Recording Note.

Up to now, he has followed the instructions and arrangements of this notebook, but he knows nothing about this notebook.

Since the previous owner of the notebook knows Shangguan Yan, he must have had contact with the Control Bureau.

Maybe there will be information about this notebook in the Control Bureau's banned items file.

Xia Shou's fingers fell on the keyboard, and suddenly stopped.

If you search directly, you may leave browsing traces on the network of the control bureau. Although it is natural for an employee to casually check the banned articles of strange stories heard from others, it would be best if there is a way to browse without a trace.

Click!

While thinking, the door of the office opened a crack, and a familiar voice came from the door.

"Xia Shou?"

Su Weiyu poked her head in from outside the door, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xia Shou.

"Finally found you. I didn't see you in the dormitory, so I thought you should come to work, and I found you.

You haven't had lunch yet? Look what I brought you?

Dangdangdang~ Lunch produced by a five-star hotel!"

Su Weiyu shook the takeaway in her hand, put the lunch box on the table with a proud look on her face, and opened it, and the tempting aroma came to her face.

"Australian pureblood wagyu, Boston lobster, I thought you might not like Western food, so when I passed by the Japanese restaurant, I took a sushi platter, just enough for the two of us!"

Su Weiyu moved a chair and sat down next to Xia Shou's desk, and set the tableware.

Looking at the tempting food in front of him, Xia Shou sighed: "Isn't this expensive?"

"I didn't look at the price, anyway, I just took it casually. If you want to eat anything, just tell me, I'll get it for you, or I can make it myself. Don't look at me like this, my cooking skills are superb!" Su Weiyu gave a thumbs up, with full confidence on her face.

"It's great, these things can be eaten at will." Xia Shou envied Su Weiyu's ability.

With his conditions in his previous life, let alone lobster and beef, even going to a river bottom hot pot restaurant would have to be weighed, and Su Weiyu actually used these top-notch meals as daily food.

Compared with this, Su Weiyu's ability is so convenient. Not only can she be completely free from the constraints of social rules, but she can also enjoy the top services of modern society anytime and anywhere. Just thinking about it makes her feel so cool!

Su Weiyu sat aside, holding a knife and fork, not busy eating, but secretly observing Xia Shou's expression. After seeing that Xia Shou was very satisfied with this lunch, she breathed a sigh of relief and confirmed that the strategy plan she made last night was not wrong.

"By the way, why do you want to join the Control Bureau?" Su Weiyu picked up a piece of lobster and put it on Xia Shou's plate, asking indirectly.

"Well... how to say it, to survive." Xia Shou picked up the lobster and sighed helplessly, "The specific situation is very complicated. Simply put, I must keep hunting weirdos to survive."

"Is that so... then I really have to stay in the Control Bureau." Su Weiyu's eyes flashed with regret.

If Xia Shou was just short of money, then he wouldn't need to continue working at the Control Bureau. She could just go to any bank's safe and get a few gold bricks, and she could be free and easy for a while.

She had actually prepared a global travel strategy. If Xia Shou didn't have to stay at the Control Bureau, he could travel around the world with her.

Xia Shou picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat. Suddenly, he thought of something and looked at Su Weiyu with surprise: "Weiyu."

"Cough cough cough!" Su Weiyu was choked and coughed several times in a row. She raised her head and stared at Xia Shou in surprise.

She didn't expect the other party to call her with such an intimate name.

But soon, Su Weiyu calmed down, hid her smug mood, and happily accepted the name. She asked back very naturally: "What's the matter?"

"Let me ask you, if you look up information on the Internet, will your traces of browsing the Internet be noticed by others?" Xia Shou asked.
