cloudy day.

A rare good weather.

It is not a rainy day, nor is it sunny; it is a little damp but not cold; it is light but not dazzling; it may be sunny in the future, or it may rain.

I like this ambiguous weather and complex possibilities.

This personality may be derived from the weather in my hometown. Hongcheng with sunshine always makes people feel stuffy, but it makes people feel even more uncomfortable when it rains, let alone winter rain, which is my mother and I nightmare.

In that cold and humid weather, I always had difficulty breathing, and my mother's legs would be painful and made her lie on the bed. At that time, the house was as quiet as if it was dead.

Now that I think about it, this is the evil consequence of the Yin Qi hidden in the curse. Even though the Yin Qi has dissipated, the painful memories are always lingering.

Sitting in a elegant seat in a teahouse, I couldn't help but recall the past and was rarely dazed for a while.

I rarely stare at dazed because it was a waste of my few time. At that time, I didn't know when I would die, so I raced against time. But now, when I know that my future lifespan can exceed two hundred years, or even more, I began to occasionally get back the shortcomings that ordinary people have, but this is not a bad thing, because compared with the current freedom and comfort, the feeling of powerlessness in the past became more and more obvious, and it made me more alert to the importance of strength.

It's 3:20 pm now, and there are still 10 minutes before the agreed time, but the person has not arrived yet. It seems that the guy I'm going to meet this time doesn't like the guy who arrives early, or is he not paying much attention to this meeting?

I looked at my watch and couldn't help but ponder in my heart - this performance is not consistent with that friend's enthusiastic performance on the Internet... Could it be that I encountered some accident?

This is my first time meeting with a netizen. I wouldn't be nervous. The main reason is that I'm very curious about the person I'm about to meet.

Since my friend Su Zhou was forced to promote the benchmark figure in the era of spiritual revival by Zhengguo's official government, his existence itself has brought a lot of traffic and hot topics. The work of guiding fans and public opinion is the top priority. As his friend, I have taken on this task for granted and become the manager of his fan core group.

Although I don’t think Su Zhou would think about public opinion traffic and hot topics, and wouldn’t care about it, the experience of managing such a large organization is rare. Although the structure of the fan club is loose, it is also an organization after all. Working in it is equivalent to doing an internship, which is not an experience that anyone can have.

And this time, the person I want to meet is a big administrator who joined the "Suzhou Support Group Core Group" very early.

His id is called ‘Suzhou Support Team 014’. Just from this number, you can know how early he joined.

014 This person is knowledgeable and warm to others. He often helps other administrators solve many problems in the group. It can be seen that he is indeed very capable, and even has management experience. Such people are rare, especially among Su Zhou's fans, which is really a bit amazing. The communication process between him and me is always very pleasant. In other words, he not only has a low ability, but also has a weak interpersonal communication ability.

There have been several times, I even wanted to hire him as a full-time manager of the fan club because his ability is really strong. Whether it is guiding public opinion or crisis public relations, they are doing it perfectly, but this is just thinking about it. After all, with such ability, this person must have a considerable position in reality.

Recently, this friend who claims to be a fellow villager in Hongzhou claimed that he would come to Hongcheng soon and invited Su Zhou and I to meet in reality, and said mysteriously that he would give Su Zhou and me a big surprise.

I didn't think there was anything on Earth that could surprise Su Zhou and I. Moreover, when he started to invite me to meet in reality, I vaguely realized that the other party had a different purpose.

This should be avoided when meeting friends on the Internet in reality. I will not put myself in danger. Although this friend is very friendly on weekdays, who knows what he really thinks? Maybe he deliberately intervenes in the fan club, establishes good relationships on weekdays, and shows kindness in order to deceive me at this moment.

Although he also invited Su Zhou as a way to relieve doubts, I believe that as a person who often observes Su Zhou's action pattern, he should be very confident. If he really sends an invitation, Su Zhou will inevitably decline, and even I will not allow Su Zhou to meet fans privately at the inappropriate time.

After all, if something unexpected happens in the middle or is exposed by other people with ulterior motives, it will be considered a scandal.

However, after vaguely confirming that the other party had ulterior motives, I became more interested in 014. Although he hid it very well, his tone and speaking habits prove that this friend may not even be a good person and live a pampered life.

How could such a person be so enthusiastic about the work within the fan club? What is the purpose of his intention to meet me in private?

I'm quite curious about this.

At 3:25 pm, I heard the sound of calm footsteps outside the seat. The owner of the footsteps should be 180 tall and weigh about 70 kilograms, and was thin. His movements were extremely regular, and each action was abnormally in line with the rhythm, but surprisingly, I did not feel any fluctuations of spiritual energy from this body.

An ordinary person who has never practiced?

No, in this world, where do ordinary people in the traditional sense come from? Nowadays, except for children who have not reached the age of practice, basically all adults have a certain foundation for practice. The so-called national practice is not a joke. Even in the western mountain villages, there are special cadres to popularize it.

Ordinary people are the biggest extraordinary. Although in this way, the threat the other party has reduced to almost nothing in reality, I must be more cautious. Who knows what the other party’s purpose and back-up is? The other party may have hidden his cultivation through secret techniques, but this is better to say that this is the greatest possibility.

Even if people say that they are too cautious, I am happy with this kind of thinking.

After three knocks, I got permission to enter, and the door was slowly opened, and a young and polite voice sounded: "Hello, it seems I'm late."

"No, it's just that we all came too early." I replied, and then looked at the visitor with interest.

The one who walked in was a mixed-race man. He had long, slightly curly black hair, pale and clean face, and could be called feminine and handsome. His dark brown eyes were introverted and his mouth was filled with a kind and gentle smile, which made people feel kind at first glance.

If my friend Su Zhou described this hairstyle, it would have to be "just like instant noodles", but I vaguely felt that the slightly curly long hair had some familiarity, like a snake.

I moved my thoughts away from this strange place, and as soon as I saw the other person's face, I felt alert.

Something is wrong.

I thought so in my mind. Because the appearance of this visitor is really outstanding.

It's not jealousy. After all, I have to say something. I am not bad. Even after getting perfect blood, Su Zhou's appearance is even more meticulous than this mixed-race friend. Although his own personality and behavioral patterns often make people unable to calm down and think about how handsome he is, I know very well when I often see him that if he shut up and sits on a chair, it is really a perfect appearance template that even the marble statues of ancient Mycenae are not as good as those of you.

With Su Zhou as the standard, I would not be surprised by the other party's appearance.

But what I mean is that appearance itself is also a kind of power.

With this level of appearance, it will inevitably attract popularity. 014's friend's appearance is enough to be a movie star. No matter whether he wants to or not, as long as he walks to the street, he will definitely be famous. Most of the people who are slightly more famous in Hongzhou and even in Zhengguo, I know that most of them have to add the rare label of mixed-race children.

But I don't know him, which proves that he is not from Hongzhou or even from Zhengguo as he claimed before.

He lied and just wanted to meet me. I was even more curious about this and did not intend to expose the other party, because I wanted to know what the purpose of this person meeting me was, and what kind of lies he would tell based on the lies.

I, who has just advanced to the extraordinary first-class level recently, is not as strong as that friend who is a bit outrageous, but among the younger generation in the whole world, it is not bad. The confidence brought to me by strength and some hidden trump cards can ensure my safety.

Although the other party may have a backup plan, if you want to find information, you must take a little risk.

After a brief greeting and complimenting each other, I and this friend who still did not reveal his real name, but claimed to be 014, talked about the fan group for a while. It took about 25 minutes, and I did not get any relevant useful information from it.

If ordinary people are anxious, but I don’t, because I have vaguely guessed the reasons and purpose of why this person wasted time so much. He seemed to want to make me feel a little irritated - not his irritatedness when he speaks like a spring breeze, but his irritation about the management of fan groups.

He is very clever and often inadvertently suggests that managing a fan club is a time-consuming thing, and the subtext is "it will affect your practice". If I hadn't been wary of this guy from the beginning, I would have really followed his induction and developed a different emotion.

The clues were revealed - I continued to push the topic without hesitation, and 014 seemed to be clear and stopped when it was better.

“A gift.”

He smiled and said, "For you and Professor Su. If he is the person I have always admired and longed for, then Mr. Shao, you are the friend I really want to make."

Said this way, 014 handed over two small boxes, and I could sense a wave of restrained spirituality from it. What 014 said before was not false. Even if I had eaten two wisdom fruits, I didn't hear any lie from it.

——He really respects Su Zhou and wants to be friends with me? It’s interesting, but this does not conflict with his ulterior motives.

"I really have to worry about you, but if it is too expensive, I won't accept it."

He said this, after I was polite, I opened the box.

A ray of inspiration lit up.

The box contains two watches, which are very delicate but not luxurious. It is attached with an extremely fine spiritual gathering array. When this spiritual gathering array is running, it can even allow the watch to detect the surrounding spiritual concentration and some more detailed data.

This is not expensive, but the workmanship is extremely fine, and it is not qualified as a magic tool. However, it is definitely above the standard as a small gift for daily use. It is very meaningful just as a souvenir.

But the most important thing is not the watch itself.

"A very clever hypnosis."

I said in admiration, closed the box, and nodded slightly to 014 on the side: "Invisible, a trace of invisible psychological hint - through previous words, I felt bored with the fan club, and then mixed Su Zhou and the fan club concepts, and finally used the "inspiration I saw when I opened the box", which was just ordinary, but also symbolized the action of "opening my true thoughts in my heart", and planted this hint deep in my heart."

"But the subtle thing is that your hint does not make the relationship between Su Zhou worse. On the contrary, you just want me to concentrate on practicing, catch up with Su Zhou, and then gradually transfer the work of the fan club to you - this is a good thing, I am not rejected in my heart, so it is extremely difficult to discover. Even if I find it, I will feel that this is my own idea."

"You showed great abilities, and after this meeting, as a friend who has met in reality, I have no reason not to believe you."

——But Su Zhou and I have been friends for so many years, how could I not know that it is impossible to catch up with each other by focusing on cultivation?

If you don’t cheat, you cannot become a real strong man, because neither talent nor hard work is just a foundation. Without extraordinary experiences, ordinary geniuses cannot catch up with the strong man.

014 The handsome face showed a hint of surprise, but he was not panicked - it seemed that he did not underestimate me, as if he knew that I would not be affected by this hint? But he might not have expected that I had not believed him from the beginning, so he was surprised.

But it was too early to be surprised.

In this regard, I just pointed out a question simply: "If you change to a more ordinary face, I might be really hit. 014, let's talk, what is your purpose? I guess you shouldn't be a simple Suzhou fan, and you're willing to take risks for the benefit of being a fan leader."

I think 014 should have a backup plan, and it is not like a person who only makes one preparation.

"no way."

Regarding my words, 014 shrugged, and he showed a real bitter smile: "This is the standard for the organization to screen personnel, especially the core personnel - that is, the appearance must be the best group of people in the race, as for the specific reasons..."

He shrugged and didn't continue.

Organization. Sure enough, there is indeed an organization behind 014, which is consistent with the management ability he showed before. The other party has been lurking for so long, probably has a different purpose, but the criteria for preventing the screening of core personnel is really inexplicable... good-looking?

Recalling the experience in Shan Country, I seem to have guessed which organization behind this guy is.

"You can find this hint, which is actually what I expect. We have never underestimated you, but if you really get hint, it will be more convenient for me, so you can give it a try."

Although someone discovered his purpose, 014 quickly regained a harmonious smile, without any fear or desire to escape: "Do you know who you are?"

——If it were Su Zhou on the Internet, at this time, a reply like "Of course it's your father" would have popped up.

Although the Internet term that friends are used to use easily appears in my mind, my strength is that I can be distracted for several purposes, so I still pretend to be very confused: "I am Shao Qiming, and the entire core management group knows why you ask this meaningless question?"

But 014 shook his head and said, "Do you think your identity is Shao Qiming?"

"No, only you, your parents, think so. For most people in this world, your identity is actually 'Su Zhou's friend'."

Yoho.

I raised my eyebrows. After the 014 was revealed, I no longer concealed it. This opening was to provoke the relationship between Su Zhou and me, implying that I am Su Zhou's subordinate, and arousing my fighting spirit... What does this mean?

Moreover, from this moment, I vaguely began to notice that the spiritual power fluctuations on 014 began to surge out. It seemed that he had concealed his strength with some secret technique before... Superior High-level? Although there was only a small part, it was indeed Superior High-level, or even the peak purity. As I guessed, he indeed hid his strength, but if it was like this, it was still within my expectations.

Soon, he cast a shielding spell to isolate the teahouse Yazu and other private rooms.

I don’t need to crack this spell for a moment, but I also see that this person has no malicious intentions - it’s really interesting.

"You've been lurking for a long time."

After taking a sip of tea, it was a little bitter. I said calmly: "Why is it exposed now? If you want to be unfavorable to Su Zhou and me, as long as you continue to lurk, you will always find an opportunity."

The meaning of my sentence is mainly to have two purposes. One is to try to obtain the other party's motivation for action, and to ask directly, to see if the other party will answer, and to judge the other party's personality.

"Because there will be no chance if we don't use it, and our purpose is very simple."

And 014 also brought himself a cup of tea, he took a sip and smiled: "And, it is good for Su Zhou and you."
Chapter completed!
