Intelligence Bureau

The weather in London is already very humid. It rains at both ends of the day for three days. Occasionally, the weather clears up, and it is rare for the faint sunshine to pass through the heavy fog to bring some clarity to this wetland.

Today's weather happened to be the worst of the few days. The rain kept falling silently, and the cool water droplets and dense fog made it almost impossible for people to move.

Such weather has slowed down the rhythm of the entire central London.

However, in the rain, a slender figure was still walking on the street at a leisurely pace, holding an umbrella as if walking in the rain, and occasionally the water stains on the soles of his feet splashed his white suit pants.

As a result, every time he passed by a person, the passers-by would cast a slightly surprised look, even though what he saw was only a vague black shadow.

The man's stroll didn't last long, and soon he stopped somewhere.The fog was so heavy that bystanders could only vaguely see that there was a huge building there, hidden behind the fog.

If the fog is thinner, you will see that this is a complex building, which generally looks like a combination of Babylon's psychic tower and a power plant, which is very representative in Britain during the Industrial Revolution.

In fact, this building has little to do with industry, and it is the standard model of the "Government Telecommunications Bureau" that is generally accepted by the outside world.

"Colonel Costa, welcome to come, please allow us to lead the way for you." Not long after the man stood up, someone greeted him.

The estimated number of people is only three.

The faint smile that had been raised at the corner of the man's mouth tended to gradually deepen, and he casually took out something from his pocket and quickly stuffed it into his mouth, and then followed them into the building with the same strolling posture just now.

In fact, the interior of the building is not much brighter than the street, but seeing things is not a problem.Only at this time did he see clearly what the man stuffed into his mouth. It was an unlit cigarette.

"Colonel Costa, the Ministry stipulates that smoking is not allowed." Even if he is a colonel, he must abide by the regulations when he comes to the Intelligence Bureau.A man in black walking beside the man couldn't help but remind him, but after saying this, his face showed a dull state.

Without the obscurity of the previous thick fog, the man's unobstructed side face suddenly came into his eyes, his facial features were too delicate, if his ears were a little sharper, he would think he saw an elf.

In fact, if such exquisite facial features are just placed there, it is just a vase that people will appreciate, but the pair of brown peach blossom eyes with a smile make the whole person come alive, and if one is not careful, one will be caught by that person. Eyes sucked in.Thinking of this, Andrea suddenly woke up. He was stunned to see a man!

Before that, as a member of the Intelligence Bureau, he didn't even know that there was an army colonel who was so outstanding.

"Dear sir, I didn't light the fire." The man tilted his head and said with a chuckle, his tone was obviously raised, making the words sound less serious but not rude.Furthermore, in terms of status, there is no such thing as impoliteness when a colonel or deputy director of the intelligence bureau speaks to his subordinates.

But Andrea fell into a brief absence again, just because the colonel's voice was too special.I couldn't find any man's voice in my memory to compare with him. The soft tone spun a few times in the air and fell into my ears, which was unexpectedly comfortable.For the first time, he felt that a man's feminine and sultry voice was nice? !

No, he has made two low-level mistakes in a row.In just two seconds, Andrea immediately reflected deeply on her behavior just now.

Is he being seduced by sex?Seduced by a man?God, how absurd!

Andrea glanced at the man who was still smoking a cigarette, and couldn't refute his words for a moment, after all, he did not light a cigarette.Furthermore, his status as a colonel does not allow him to say anything, so he can only let him go.

Therefore, the first impression is all bad except for the appearance.It's okay to be airborne, and he still looks unscrupulous. He has a tendency to play big names just after entering the gate of the intelligence agency.

The man was led through a circular hall behind the main entrance, and went straight to the stairs at the other end.

Speaking of which, the internal and external styles of the Government Telecommunications Bureau are very different. First, it is mistaken for the appearance of an industrial base, and then it is an inner room similar to the layout of a parliament.

With the circular hall in the middle as the center, it diverges to form an upside-down circular platform.The round platform is divided into multiple layers, and each layer has many small doors, about ten meters apart.

It was only when the man was brought to the top of the stairs that he realized that the stairs were still extending downwards, and Andrea and his two partners had already stood on the steps one level lower than him and made a gesture of invitation to him.

Andrea saw the corner of the man's mouth raised again, and stepped downstairs with interest.I don't know why, but it feels a bit cold, maybe the basement is too damp on rainy days.

"Colonel Costa, this is your office, please come in." It was still Andrea who walked in front and opened a door first, and then stood respectfully at the door and maintained the action of inviting.

The man withdrew his gaze from observing the mysterious and magnificent basement floor, walked towards the door noncommittally, and immediately saw an ordinary office.It is really very ordinary, there is not even a vase in the room, just empty wooden tables and chairs, dull office colors.

As soon as he stepped in with both feet, Andrea spoke again: "Colonel Costa, I am your assistant Andrea, and I will do my best to complete whatever the colonel tells me."

"Oh? Then the two of them are also my assistants?" The man said while looking around the shabby office, still in the same aggressive tone as before.

"No, Colonel, they followed me to welcome you." Of course not, the addition of three of them just made the welcoming team look less shabby.Andrea said with disdain in her heart, even Mr. Arnold has only one assistant, and the people in the Intelligence Bureau are not full-time assistants.

"Then let them retreat, or change into more energetic clothes and come back? Little Andrea who is all in black will scare me~" What kind of request is this?And what is that 'Little Andrea' called?Andrea twitched the corners of her mouth slightly.

There were only two people left, and the office door finally looked less crowded.Just as Andrea wanted to ask the newly appointed deputy minister what else he needed, the other party spoke first.

"Little Andrea~ Don't you take me to meet your minister? Mr. Arnold?" Andrea was not surprised by this request, because the previous deputy minister also asked for it, but it was only just after taking office The time I asked for...

It would not be a bad thing to have this distinguished colonel meet Mr. Arnold.But can he ask the colonel to change that title first?

"Colonel Costa, please come with me." After thinking about it, Andrea never said it, but just took a step forward, bent down again and made a gesture of invitation in front of the man.

This is the third time the man saw this gesture today, and began to think about Minister Arnold's gentlemanly demeanor.

"Ara, just listening to the colonel, I feel that my shoulders are not carrying heavy responsibilities. In order to help me lighten the burden, little Andrea should call me Mr. Lenart." Andrea actually chose from what men are used to. A bit of childish naughtiness could be heard in the tone, and he was surprised by the change of the address. Few officers were unwilling to let others call their ranks.

Well, Andrea had to admit that the airborne deputy minister didn't seem to be as bad as he just commented.

"Yes, Colonel Costa."

"..."

It was only after Andrea finished speaking that she realized that she forgot to change her address. She looked up at the deputy minister, and the other party's lips with a cigarette still curved into a smile. He was obviously very naughty, but he couldn't deny that his smile was beautiful.

what!He just wanted to see if his immediate superior was angry, so why did he pay attention to the smile!

"Little Andrea shouts the wrong words next time, I will kiss you~" What... what... Andrea's eyes widened in disbelief, deputy minister, do you know what you said?

Seeing the assistant's apparent petrification, Lennart walked forward suspiciously.

Sometimes, cramming education works. Believe him, this is a good start, the beginning of knowing the true temperament of your boss.

If you carefully observe this magnificent underground floor again, you will find many interesting things. For example, the path they are walking now is different from the round hall on the ground, but a wide rectangular corridor. The rooms here are generally three times larger than the ground floor. Large, and the rooms are located in a staggered distribution, facing each other in pairs...

Only the two of them walked up the stairs step by step, and the dull sound of leather shoes hitting the wooden floor sank and resounded in the empty stairwell.

Andrea seemed to be quite frightened, and didn't dare to say anything for a while, and walked obediently two steps behind Lennart to lead the way.So the only thing that is silent along the way is the sound of footsteps, and some details will be easily amplified.Like the sudden sound of new footsteps...

Lennart raised his head quickly, because of this movement, the cigarette butt was a little soft again, and the cigarette swung up and down in the air a little bit, and it was clamped firmly.

"Mr. Arnold, Mr. Ke...Leinart said he wanted to see you, so I brought him here." Andrea first looked up to see the person coming, and then immediately bent down deeply to salute, despite her efforts Covering up, Lennart still noticed his fear.Is this the so-called awe?

"Hmm." The man standing a few floors higher went down two more floors, and uttered a syllable with obvious masculinity in his voice.

"Leinart Costa, dear Mr. Arnold, nice to meet you." Leinart looked up at the man on the steps with a smile on his face. The words and behavior in his mouth were obviously not on the same channel. The words are polite, but there are no such etiquettes as bowing or shaking hands.

However, Arnold didn't care about his etiquette, he just nodded slightly expressionlessly, and then walked straight past the two of them.It seems that they didn't hear Andrea's report just now. Lennart came to visit him on a special trip.

Lennart turned around and looked at the back of the man who was walking down the stairs steadily, with a smile reaching his ears. Does this mean that the superior also dislikes him?But pretty interesting isn't it?

"Little Andrea~ What do you think of your minister?" Leinart put his hands in his white trouser pockets, leaned against the handrail of the stairs, and slaved his chin in the direction Arnold left.

Andrea wasn't prepared for this question at all, but she still had endless pride when talking about her minister. "Mr. Arnold is a very stable and capable person. It is our honor to have him as the Minister of Intelligence."

The words are very official, but the high praise is also obvious.Andrea was secretly proud in her heart, our minister's position in the Intelligence Bureau is unshakable.

"Thank you little Andrea for telling me this, but I just want to say that your lord is really handsome." Leinart looked at Andrea slightly sideways and said, his peach eyes obviously had smile.

Then he went downstairs, and it seemed that the Intelligence Bureau was more interesting than he expected.

Andrea froze for a moment, and then followed the slender figure. Did he hallucinate just now?The deputy minister said he wanted to kiss him before, but now he says that Mr. Arnold is handsome. Although this is true, it still makes people suspicious. Are you gay, deputy minister? !
