Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 96 She A-ed the Captain Stuck in the Office
Perhaps what Ins envisioned was in line with the development of reality, and there was no abrupt coincidence.

Perhaps it was driven by the sequence 0 "writer" "08-1".

In short, after the wife of Congressman Maynard was caught cheating in bed and teased by Mrs. Sharon, the daughter of the leader of the new party in Tingen City really couldn't stand it.

Filled with anger and hatred, she approached the "professionals" - the Blackthorn Security Company, who had solved the case of the kidnapping of Elliot, the youngest son of tobacco merchant Vickrol, in just half a day a few weeks ago.

……

And this day was exactly the time when Daly was transferred from Enmat Port to Backlund according to the original development trajectory.

In the morning, after finishing the sacrifice ceremony for Star's auxiliary materials, Klein walked into the Blackthorn Security Company with steady steps.

After greeting Roshan at the reception desk, Klein talked about the welcome party tonight after completing the joining mission.

When the Night Watchmen have a dinner party, he won't have to go to Senior Sta's house for a free meal and can still have a good meal.

Thinking of this, Klein deliberately touched his stomach and said to Roshan with a smile:
"Ms. Roxanne, you shouldn't bring up this topic at this time. I'm already tired of the tasks that haven't come yet today. I just hope the night will come sooner."

"Me too." Luo Shan laughed.

She looked around, beckoned Klein to come closer, and then lowered her voice and said:

"I just saw Ms. Daly and the captain enter the office together."

"Ms. Psychic Daly?" Klein asked in surprise.

The most famous psychic in Ahowa County has always lived in Enmat Harbor, not too far from Tingen.

So, Ms. Daly is really interested in the captain and came here specially?
What kind of mutual crush is this?

When did Star use his golden finger to check the situation of these two people? He ate the melon earlier than me, his teammate.

"Yes." Luo Shan nodded vigorously, "You came at the right time. She hasn't left yet."

Next, Roxanne talked incessantly about her beautiful imagination - if she became a psychic like Daly, she would definitely travel around the world.

After hearing this, Klein wanted to complain that becoming a Beyonder would be subject to official rules and regulations.

However, when he thought about how wild Beyonder seniors like Star lived an extremely comfortable life, he turned his thoughts to other topics and noticed another key point in Luo Shan's words.

Since he did not sleep in this morning and rushed to deliver the supporting materials he applied for to Star, Klein came to Blackthorn Security Company earlier this time.

Thinking of the comments about the captain and Ms. Daly that Star had made during their casual chat, Klein couldn't help but have a sudden thought:
"Since this is such a coincidence, should I go take a look before Ms. Daly leaves?"

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Luo Shan say, "Klein, are you listening to me?"

Then she said angrily, "Forget it. The captain told you to go find him as soon as you get here. But in this situation, you should just wait outside the office."

Realizing that he had been distracted, Klein apologized a little sheepishly.

And Luo Shan's suggestion also made him somewhat interested.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Klein walked towards the partition and approached the captain's office.

Outside the captain's office, Klein was thinking about the result of Daly coming all the way here, hoping that she and the captain could create a hot spark.

"What is this, the story that a middle-aged nightmare and a young psychic have to tell?"

As he was waiting, he suddenly heard a female voice coming from inside the door.

That's when Ms. Daly suddenly raised her voice:
"After I leave, you will never see me again, Dunn, don't you have anything to say to me?"

"Don't wait until late at night when you miss me to regret it."

She had on an old-fashioned makeup look, and the blue eyeshadow and blush on her enchanting face revealed a hint of anticipation.

During her darkest time, it was Dunn who brought her out of the quagmire and warmed her body and mind.

So, after she knew she would be transferred to Backlund, she rushed here from Enmat Port.

So, I'm leaving tomorrow, Dunn, you really don't have any opinion?
Although I have indulged too much in the past, please don't ignore my hints, okay?

She didn't want to see him just be at a loss again and again.

She didn't want to see him just avoid her anymore.

But Dunn's dark grey eyes did not dare to look directly at Daly. He, who was always steady, became flustered.

He coughed, thinking that Ms. Daly was joking with him again, and stiffly changed the subject: "Let's continue to talk about our views on the Sequence Pathway promotion."

After hearing Dunn's reply, Daly could no longer conceal her disappointment and said in a depressed mood, "Oh, your way of changing the subject is not smooth at all, it's still so rough."

Captain Dunn turned his head away awkwardly, his hidden emotions once again suppressed by his inferiority complex.

Some words got stuck in my mouth and couldn't be said anymore.

She is a talent, she is young enough and she has enough opportunities.

She has a better chance of becoming an archbishop or a high deacon than I do.

But Daly didn't think so. Deep down, she believed that the conservative Dunn was still concerned about her previous behavior.

She didn't dare to hold Dunn down and ask him to give her a positive answer, so she could only force a smile:
"It's getting late. If I stay any longer, people might think I'm doing something to you."

"I go first."

When we come here, we have expectations, and when we leave, we only have those expectations shattered.

Then she bumped into Crane at the door.

Klein also looked at Ms. Daly in surprise as she was about to leave sadly.

He had already imagined an emotional story in his mind and couldn't believe what the captain was struggling with.

Is it really like what Star complained, that the captain is a blockhead?

Daly had nothing to be embarrassed about, she just said jokingly:

"Little guy, you have seen my embarrassing side."

Klein felt a little embarrassed. Meeting the melon owner while eating melon did make him a little overwhelmed for a moment.

He didn't know what the captain was hesitating about. He always had a smile on his face when he mentioned Ms. Daly, but he didn't show any expression at the critical moment.

I just thought of what Star once joked about, "The story of an ordinary genius and an ordinary middle-level Nighthawk."

Klein suddenly had an idea and said, "Ms. Daly, I have something to tell you..."

After a while, Klein slowly walked into the office.

He saw the captain with a receding hairline holding up his coffee and smiled:
"Daly was here."

“I know. I just saw her leave.” Klein responded.

Dunn's hand holding the coffee shook noticeably.

He ignored the implication in Klein's words and sighed:
"Daly has been transferred to the Backlund Diocese. It is the most prosperous and crowded city in the world, and it also has the most Beyonders and the most opportunities... She has a better chance of becoming an archbishop or a high-ranking deacon than I do."

No wonder Ms. Daly came over, so that's why.

Klein then asked, "Captain, why do you say that about Ms. Daly?"

Dunn thought for more than ten seconds and said:
"She has a unique talent in mastering and mining sequence potions... I told you before that the internal regulations of the Nighthawks are that if you want to take the potion of the next sequence, you must wait for three years and then undergo strict examinations to avoid losing control. But normally, three years is often not enough. It took me three years to go from 'Sleepless' to 'Midnight Poet', and nine years from 'Midnight Poet' to 'Nightmare', a full nine years. It has taken me three years to go from 'Nightmare' to Sequence 6. I don't know how many more years it will take." "When our bodies get old and our spirits begin to decline, even if we overcome the hidden dangers, we should not try to advance again, because the risk of losing control is so high that no one is willing to take the risk."

"However, Daly and I are different from most Beyonders. After becoming a 'Corpse Collector', she submitted a special application only one year later, hoping to take the subsequent potion immediately. To everyone's surprise, she actually passed the more rigorous examination and obtained the 'Gravedigger' potion."

"It only took her one year to go from a 'gravedigger' to a 'psychic'. Haha, this year is only her fifth year as a Extraordinary Person. She is only 24 years old, still young enough and has plenty of opportunities."

When Klein listened carefully, he actually heard a certain pride and pride in the tone, and it was not the normal kind of pride shown to teammates or juniors.

Is it true that Ms. Daly is only 24? Is this why the captain has such low self-esteem?
Klein, who had been gossiping for a long time, sighed and glanced at the captain with a high hairline.

He also sighed and thought to himself:

Star is right, Captain, you are really stupid.

I finally understand why Ms. Daly put on old-fashioned makeup. She wanted to match you.

Then Klein comforted Dunn: "Captain, you are still young enough. You are only in your thirties."

And he added silently in his heart that it was just that his memory was a little bad.

Oh, the captain has a bad memory. Why does he remember Ms. Daly's promotion story so clearly, as if he knew it by heart...

Dunn took a sip of coffee, shook his head and smiled bitterly.

When Klein saw the captain's performance, he sensed a tragedy caused by inferiority complex.

At the same time, he finally decided that this couple had a chance, and it was really his turn to play the role of "Yue Lao" or "matchmaker" to help them get together.

He asked deliberately:
"Captain, didn't Leonard share the 'acting method' with the team? You can also use this method to quickly get promoted like Ms. Daly."

After finding out from Ms. Daly and Star the true attitude of the church's top leaders towards "acting law," Klein no longer had any reservations about sharing this information directly.

The church's top leaders simply require those who have mastered the "acting method" to swear not to spread it to outsiders for the sake of world peace and stability.

That's fine. Take this opportunity to say whatever you need to say.

Anyway, even if he swears not to spread it in the future, he can ask Star to help him share it with other people at the Tarot Club - although now he can only sit on the side and watch Star collect the money.

Of course, if Star knew about this, he might add a few more comments for his own amusement:

Hey, Mr. Fool, the world famous painting, is sharing his “acting method”.

But why are there only Mr. Wheel of Fortune and other Tarot Club members? Where is Mr. Fool?

Mr. Fool just watched.

It was he who tacitly allowed Mr. Wheel of Fortune to spread the "acting method", so he was unwilling to take advantage of such an advantage of only a few hundred pounds.

The captain sighed, touched his smooth forehead, and said with some helplessness:

"I also want to play 'Nightmare', but I still don't know how to play 'Nightmare'. I can't figure out how to play 'Nightmare'."

“I tried, but I always felt like there was no feedback from my performance.”

"And for some reasons, my role will definitely take longer, and it will be more difficult to digest."

"Alas, by the time I have digested the 'nightmare', I will probably be in my forties, and I will have no hope of competing for the position of archbishop or senior deacon."

It’s a pity that the captain is drinking coffee instead of wine, otherwise it would make him even more depressed.

Even so, Klein still felt the bitterness in the air, and he began to think:
It is somewhat unsuitable for a kind person like the captain to play the role of "Nightmare".

The requirements for acting are indeed sometimes a bit difficult. For example, Klein still has no idea how he will play the Joker in the future.

Alas, Star told me that I don’t need to worry about this, but I still have to hurry up and improve my strength.

Could it be that Star's cheat code can tell how some sequences should be done "acting out"?
When he thought about the speculation about Star and his golden finger, Klein felt that there should always be a way.

Klein did not forget the purpose of coming into the office this time. He said to the captain loudly and energetically:

"Captain, does that mean you only need to master the 'acting method' and digest the potion to advance to Sequence 6 in time?"

"You will take the initiative to extend your hand to Ms. Daly, invite her to dance an opening dance, and tell her your inner feelings!"

It doesn't matter if the captain blames me.

Because it is no longer face-saving and worth caring about.

There is no need for love that cannot be conveyed.

Because now is the era of straight ball.

"No way!" Captain Dunn jumped up and said like a mad curly-haired baboon, "Klein, don't talk nonsense."

Now he no longer had the calmness and composure of the past, and just wanted to shut Klein's mouth as soon as possible.

But his secret was finally exposed, and Captain Dunn could only bow his head in embarrassment and refute:
"That will have to wait until I master the 'Acting Method' and advance to Sequence 6."

Klein didn't offend anyone by giving a meaningful "oh" to neutralize the sour smell of middle-aged love.

Instead, he smiled happily and continued:

"Captain, your last sentence didn't deny what I said. It seems that you really think so."

Dunn sat down, took a sip of the bitter coffee, and said:

"whatever."

At this moment, Ms. Daly couldn't wait to open the office door and asked excitedly:

"Is what Klein said true?"

Dunn suddenly felt that the scene was in chaos. His eyes suddenly widened and he was speechless for a long time.

With a bit of disbelief, he finally opened his mouth and said:
"Dai, Dai Li, did you hear everything that was just said?"

Family members, who understands? Just now, a little boy deliberately let the person he secretly loves hear my inner voice...

Daley looked at Dunn's performance and instantly understood what Dunn was thinking.

She finally understood why she came with the news of being transferred to Backlund, but instead saw Dunn avoiding her even more.

Klein on the side retreated at the right time, leaving the two people in the office looking at each other in bewilderment.

Dunn's deep grey eyes reflected Daley's enchanting and beautiful figure. He considered his words for a while before muttering:

"I didn't know you were outside..."

"Stop talking." Dai Li's expression became joyful, and the corners of her mouth curled up a little bit, gently and sweetly.

She suddenly walked up to Dunn and hugged him from the front with her hot body.

The unexpected development made Dunn unable to react for a while, and the fragrance in his nose made his brain shut down.

I only heard Dai Li say faintly:

"But, silly, I don't care what sequence you are in."

After saying that, she raised her head and entangled Dunn...
