Realistic Longevity

After staying up all night, Tang Ran's eyes were flushed, but he still didn't find any trace of the escaped person with special abilities.

Of course, this is also within his expectation. After all, that boss who has mastered the ability of "time travel back" has been imprisoned in the branch for decades, and he has already cultivated into a master. He has four years of work experience. It's normal for a rookie to beat others.

"Tang Ran, here, breakfast." The new colleague opened the door and came in, carrying the steaming breakfast from two nights, walked to the tea table and sat down, swept away the sundries and unimportant materials on the table, and put the breakfast on it, " Freshly made fruit glutinous rice balls, eat them while they are hot."

Tang Ran turned on "Chasing the Wind and Chasing Shadows" which he had searched in a large area all night. He didn't consume much spiritual energy and lost a lot of physical strength. He happened to be hungry, and he was not polite. He pulled a bowl in front of him and opened the packaging bag. While eating, he didn't forget to complain: " This early in the morning, which shop is so unique in making glutinous rice balls?"

"Oh, the Shiguang Restaurant across the street has been closed for a long time, and it just resumed business yesterday." The new colleague Hululu took two sips of sweet soup, "The chef at that restaurant knows all kinds of cuisines, and the dishes are all delicious. It’s fair, especially for migrant workers like us.”

Tang Ran doesn't pay much attention to appetite. As long as the taste is not too strange, eating is a process of filling his stomach for him, so he can't resonate with his new colleagues.But the fact that the price is fair won his heart, and he can add one more option for ordering takeaway in the future.

After eating a bowl of glutinous rice balls in a few minutes, Tang Ran packed up the garbage and threw it into the trash can outside the door. He wiped down the coffee table with a wet towel before moving the office equipment up and leaning on it to continue working.

The Special Department is the official organization of the metaphysical world, and it is also the organization that perfectly integrates fantasy elements and technological atmosphere.In addition to self-developed magic tools to deal with criminals with special abilities, the R&D department of the special department also cooperated with several large domestic companies specializing in research to jointly develop several instruments that are mainly based on technology and supplemented by magic techniques, including It is not limited to the star finder, the bundle of immortals, and the Qiankun astrolabe used by Tang Ran at the moment.

The Qiankun Astrolabe is similar to a computer in the metaphysics world, and its shape is no different from that of an ordinary laptop, except for a small gossip mark on a hidden place.

As the most important invention in the metaphysical world in the past century, the Qiankun Astrolabe is very powerful.The main body of the astrolabe is set in the General Bureau of the Special Department, which contains the largest database in the Chinese metaphysical world, which stores all the people, things, and things related to the metaphysical world that have been discovered and processed in the past 200 years, and has advanced analysis capabilities.Every member of the special department can use the database and analysis capabilities of the main system to deal with special events through the subsystem of Qiankun Astrolabe. For Tang Ran, who has the ability of "Wen Tao", this is a very useful tool.

Enter the four words "back in time" on the data search page in the astrolabe, Tang Ran presses the Enter key, and thousands of entries are displayed. He chooses to sort by importance, and then starts from the first entry. look.

The new colleague came over with a bowl: "You have read the materials for ten hours since last night, did you find anything?"

Tang Ran squinted at him, moved to the side, separated by half a meter: "It can't be said that there are none, but there are not many. There are only three people with special abilities who have the ability of 'time travel' in the whole country. Those who are in the dark, who are suspected, and who have not been registered, ten are as high as the sky. Among these ten people, two are confirmed dead, and the whereabouts of the remaining eight remain a mystery. The only one is confirmed to be related to the escaped boss The person is his distant relative, only know the surname Zhuo, no other information."

"Then what are you looking at?" the new colleague asked.

Tang Ran was still very patient during working hours, and explained to him tirelessly: "As the saying goes, everything that goes by leaves a trace. No matter how well that big boss and his relatives can hide, they still live on this land. , since they have a background in the metaphysics world and are related to such an eye-catching ability, it is impossible for them to escape completely, and they will definitely leave clues in the relevant news of 'backtracking in time', and I am looking for these traces now."

"So much news, can you finish reading it?" The new colleague frowned in distress, not for himself, but for him.

Tang Ran didn't raise his head: "What is my ability?"

"Wen Tao Wu Lue, the only newcomer in the special department who has the ability to work, everyone knows you."

"Now that you know, don't ask me such stupid questions."

As he said that, Tang Ran quickly cut to the next record, which was the No.20 document he read during his speech, which was the record of the interrogation of each member of the branch by the Law Enforcement Department after the criminal with special abilities escaped.

Wen Tao Wu Lue, Wen Tao is good at memorizing, analyzing, inducing, summarizing, and sorting out information. All branch abilities develop around this principle.Martial strategy refers to a strategic battle, directly against Zhang Fang, the "seeking immortal" of the Wei Dynasty. Zhang Fang is also the first owner of the "martial strategy" ability recorded in history.

"Wen Tao Wu Lue" is actually two skills, separate is the Kun level ability, combined to break through to Qian position.

The new colleague choked on his succinct and crazy words: "Then what should I do? I'll watch you read the information?"

Tang Ran shook his head: "Of course not, you have to do something for me."

The new colleague cheered up: "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"Go downstairs and buy me a drink." Tang Ran stared at the interrogation record on the screen, and blurted out the thoughts that had been circling in his mind for a long time, and he did not forget to add the taste requirements: "I want whole sugar with ice The oolong milk cap, please add another milk cap, thank you. I will transfer the money to you when I am done in a while."

New colleague: "..."

……

After receiving the flowers ordered last night from the delivery man, Cheng Chuhua got into Yun Shuxia's car and headed to the Jianghai City Cemetery.

There was silence all the way.

When he arrived at the place, Cheng Chuhua got off the car from the right side first, then went around to the left side, helped Yun Shuxia, who was handicapped with legs and feet, into the wheelchair, pushed him to the entrance to register his name, and then slowly walked towards the place where his old friend died.

Both of them held a bunch of flowers in their arms, which were light red crane orchids.The flower language of the crane orchid is freedom and tranquility, and it was Yun Shuluo's favorite flower during his lifetime.

Yun Shuluo, Yun Shuxia's younger brother, Cheng Chuhua's only friend after he decided not to have too many bonds with others.

Yun Shuluo's cemetery is located in the central area with the best scenery in the cemetery. It is quiet and peaceful, with blue sky and white clouds, accompanied by a clear breeze and sunny day. Walking into it, even the impetuous heart will calm down.

Yun Shuluo's name is engraved on the marble tombstone, and sunlight flows slowly along the sunken lines.The owner of the name is silent and gentle, making the cold and hard stone soft. When Cheng Chuhua presented flowers, he accidentally touched the tombstone, as if touching the fingertips of a friend again, and felt the long-lost warmth.

Yun Shuxia remained calm and indifferent, and comforted Cheng Chuhua gently: "Shu Luo would not want to see you sad for him, he was very calm when he left, because he had obtained eternal freedom and tranquility, just Like the crane orchid you gave him."

Cheng Chuhua stood up and stabbed him indifferently: "Sometimes I really doubt whether you have human emotions. Studying Buddhism has turned you into a Buddha. Should I praise you for your professionalism?"

Yun Shuxia smiled slightly, and there seemed to be a strange force around her, blocking all sharp edges from the outside world.

"I know you are complaining about Shu Luo, you think it's unfair, why I survived, but he didn't." The Buddha's counterattack also has gentle edges and corners, which can also hurt people, "Unfortunately, although I also I often think so, but I really couldn't save him."

There was no emotion on Cheng Chuhua's face, nor in his eyes, he hid all the turbulent waves under a blank: "You don't have to regret, after all, he has obtained eternal freedom and tranquility."

Yun Shuxia smiled lightly, and put her bunch of crane orchids in front of the grave: "You are still the same as before, you haven't changed at all."

His robe had long and wide sleeves. When he stretched out his hand, the cuff was pulled up, exposing his wrist and half of his forearm. There were three smooth red scars on his fair skin. Although he had healed for a long time, he could still see How miserable they looked when they were first born.

Seeing this, Cheng Chuhua frowned: "Your injury..."

"It's healed, but the scars can't be removed." Yun Shuxia put down her sleeves, "Shu Luo lost his life, and it's fair for me to get a few scars."

"Are you still not going to tell me how Shu Luo died?" Cheng Chuhua stared at him, and finally couldn't help asking what he had held back for a long time.

He asked this question once four years ago, but Yun Shuxia didn't answer, so he didn't continue, until today he asked for the second time.

The smile in Yun Shuxia's eyes faded, and she remained silent for a long time before she said, "I tell you, what can you do?"

"Maybe I can't do anything about it." Cheng Chuhua turned his head away, looking at the sky hanging down into the mountains and plains in the distance, "But I just want to know."

Yun Shuxia lowered her eyes, and the calmness on her face faded, replaced by indifferent compassion: "Have you heard of the Special Events Processing Department?"

Hearing the words "unusual event processing department", Cheng Chuhua's heart was overwhelmed, but his face remained calm: "Where is that place?"

Yun Shuxia glanced at him, pondered for a moment and smiled slightly: "You don't have to pretend, you know it."

"..."

Mistake, forgot that both of their brothers are masters at reading people's hearts.

The tense cheeks relaxed, Cheng Chuhua nodded and said: "Yes, I know, you don't need to introduce to me what it is. Then what? What is the relationship between Shu Luo and the Special Department?"

As soon as the abbreviation of "Special Department" came out, Yun Shuxia immediately deleted nearly half of the explanation, but he didn't feel relaxed because of it, but became more cold: "Shu Luo is a member of the special department in the Chuhuai City branch. Died in a mission, and I was one of the people the mission target was going to kill."

"Is he a person with special abilities?" Cheng Chuhua blurted out.

"That's the problem." Yun Shuxia held the maple leaf pendant in front of her chest, "He's not a person with special abilities, and he wasn't the executor of that mission in the first place."

Cheng Chuhua's eyes widened in astonishment: "What did you say?"

"How Shu Luo joined the special department and why he received that task is what I have been investigating. Unfortunately, four years have passed and I have found nothing." Yun Shuxia stared at her brother's tombstone as she stared at everything in the world, without strong emotions. Emotions are even more heavy because they are too indifferent, "I didn't tell you before, not because I wanted to hide it, but because I don't want you to experience this powerless feeling like me."

Cheng Chuhua lowered his head, replaying the memories of getting along with Yun Shuluo in his mind like a revolving lantern.

He is a quiet and gentle person, sometimes even more stable than the immortal Cheng Chuhua and his elder brother, and has a clear and firm plan for life.Cheng Chuhua remembered that his original ideal was to be a history teacher, and he worked hard step by step to achieve his ideal.

But for some reason, he chose to join the special department in the end, performed extraordinary tasks with an ordinary body, and died ordinary.

The reason why Cheng Chuhua is not yet clear, but he concluded that it must be a reason so important that Yun Shuluo had to give up his ideals.

Maybe it has something to do with Yun Shuxia, maybe it has something to do with Cheng Chuhua himself, maybe it has something to do with other people and things that are very important to him.

Suddenly, Cheng Chuhua thought of something: "You said your eldest sister works in Jianghai City, what's her name?"

Although she didn't know what he meant by asking about this matter, Yun Shuxia still replied: "Concubine Yun Xue is the director of the R&D department of the Jiangjiu Group branch."

It was an unexpected and reasonable answer.

"I have a double bond with Concubine Yunxue. She is a member of the Jianghai City Branch of the special department." Cheng Chuhua looked helpless, "If she is your eldest sister, then I probably understand why she committed crimes because of a special ability. So angry."

The innocent victimization of the real psychiatrist Shen Dai must have reminded her of her younger brother, that's why she showed the anger that frightened her companions.

Yun Shuxia didn't know about this before, but now that she knew, she wasn't too surprised: "So that's it. It seems that I have another way to investigate. Thank you for telling me about this."

"You're welcome." Cheng Chuhua sighed, "If you find the answer, please tell me."

Yun Shuxia nodded seriously: "Okay."

……

Tang Ran took a sip of the oolong milk cap with double milk cap, tapped the keyboard with his fingers quickly, summarized the useful information he screened out in the process of reading materials into documents, and then sorted and printed them out one by one.

The printer is extremely efficient, and a double-sided [-]-page document can be printed in ten seconds.But the new colleague with the humanoid stapler on the side didn’t have such a fast hand speed. He took the stapler and stapled the documents in a hurry, racing against the speed of the printer, for fear of messing up or getting the order wrong one step later, the result was still the same. I didn't catch up, and there were more than a dozen copies left behind.

It's over, I'm lagging behind!

The new colleague thought desperately.

Xu heard the cry in his heart, Tang Ran's hands did not slow down, but he said slowly: "Don't worry, you just need to make sure that every document is complete, I remember the order, you don't need to worry."

The new colleague suddenly came back to life: "You scared me to death if you didn't say it earlier!"

Tang Ran hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled perfunctorily: "Although I don't mind, this is indeed your job. There is an essential difference between whether you need to do it and whether you want to do it. Hold on tight. Forget about trivial matters, if you can't keep up with me when it's time for the official action, I'll apply for a replacement."

The new colleague smiled: "I know, I can definitely keep up."

"Really?" Tang Ran glanced at him sideways, and quickly typed the last line, his eyes fixed on it for a long time, "Then guess where I'm going now?"

"Ah?" The new colleague was stunned, "I don't know where you are going..."

Tang Ran snorted softly: "Wait, I'll report a replacement when I get back."

After speaking, he picked up the thin windbreaker on the sofa, and the oolong milk cap in his hand, and strode towards the door.

"Hey, wait for me!" The new colleague hurriedly followed.
