Paranormal Investigation Notes

Chapter 83 Mortality

"Hoo...drink..."

In a hall filled with all kinds of fitness equipment, Lu Ming was wearing shorts and a T-shirt, competing with a barbell.

His forehead was covered with sweat, and his body even trembled a little. The man standing next to him who seemed to be a coach had a smile on his face, but he was obviously not satisfied. .

"Lu Ming, your strength is still too weak. For the next period of time, you have to strictly follow the fitness diet and increase the amount of training."

"call……"

After finally completing a set of training, and putting down the barbell, Lu Ming called out, "Is this... more? Coach, I'm a civil servant, so I don't have to work so hard, do I?"

Lu Ming's position in the second action team is very clear, that is to act as the team's brain on a certain level, responsible for finding breakthroughs and omissions from places that ordinary people can't notice when the situation is stalemate.

This is a brain job, it seems, it seems that there is no need to train the body so strong, right?

"Coach, you don't want to train me to be like He Wei, do you? No, no, I don't have that talent, so I can't do it."

After officially joining the second action team and getting to know Zhang Dingshan, He Wei, and Lu Qingliang better, Lu Ming realized He Wei's terror more deeply.

It's just an ordinary-looking young woman—well, maybe you have to add qualifiers such as good figure and good looks, but no matter how you add it, it's just a young woman, Lu Ming can't figure it out , how could she be so good at fighting?

Not to mention fists and feet, the key is that he is proficient in all kinds of cold weapons, knives, guns, swords and halberds, and all kinds of firearms are enough to be called a sharpshooter. The key is that even his strength is greater than that of a big man like himself.

When breaking her wrists, she exhausted all her strength, but He Wei played with her mobile phone with one hand, and casually moved herself down with the other hand.

She couldn't lift the barbell with all her might, but He Wei lifted it dozens of times without changing her expression, without even sweating.

"But, this is Team Zhang's arrangement..."

This coach belongs to the logistics department of the operations department, and his level is much lower than that of first-line players like Lu Ming.Hearing Lu Ming's words at this moment, he was a little embarrassed.

"I'll talk to Team Zhang."

"What do you want to tell me?"

The door of the training hall opened, and Zhang Dingshan walked in.

"Team Zhang."

The coach said hello and then closed his mouth.Lu Ming gasped for breath and called out to Qu.

Zhang Dingshan said: "Although you are a civilian, you are different from Qing Liang. You are on the field. When performing tasks, you have to be with the team. The physical fitness of field personnel must meet the standard. This is a rigid rule."

"It's too unreasonable... Team Zhang, this kind of thing is very talented. Even if I have reached the physical fitness standard, there will be cold weapon training, firearms training, maintenance support training, first aid training and so on. It can't be done. Besides, isn't there you and He Wei in the team, so I don't need it?"

Zhang Dingshan scolded: "Talent, what talent? With your hard work, it's not time to talk about talent. Coach, watch him carefully, and I authorize you to take coercive measures when necessary."

"Yes, Team Zhang."

The coach stood at attention and agreed without hesitation.But after Zhang Dingshan left, his tone softened a bit.

For a regular player, he shouldn't be too cold and hard.

"Lu Ming, what Team Zhang means is that you don't need to make any contribution to the team in terms of force, at least you must be able to protect yourself and not hinder the team. Although I have never participated in your mission, I also know that sometimes It will be very dangerous. That... more self-protection ability is not a bad thing after all, right? Besides, Team Zhang didn't ask you to reach He Wei's level, did he?"

Lu Ming smiled wryly and nodded: "I understand the truth, that is, I am too tired, can you let me rest for a while..."

"Uh, no." The coach still rejected Lu Ming: "It's time to stretch now."

"alright."

Holding his breath, Lu Ming stood up again.

If so, more than an hour passed slowly.Just when Lu Ming felt that he was about to lose his hold, the door of the training hall was pushed open again.

The visitor was a young man with a slightly naughty smile on his face.He is taller and stronger than Zhang Dingshan, and looks extremely aggressive.

The coach immediately stood at attention and said respectfully, "Team Wang."

He casually nodded to the coach, and the young man called Team Wang looked at Lu Ming: "Let me introduce myself, Wang Zheng, the captain of the [-]th Operation Team of the Operation Department of the Planetary Security Bureau."

Lu Ming stood up: "Uh, I'm a member of the second action team, Lu Ming."

"I know you, Lu Ming. Is it convenient to talk?"

Lu Ming hesitated: "I'm training now."

Wang Zheng looked at the coach.The coach immediately said: "You can rest for a while."

"Okay, you go to work first."

The coach got up and left, while Wang Zheng sat casually opposite Lu Ming.

"Captain Wang, what's the matter?"

Wang Zheng nodded: "Yes, there is something to do. I heard that you performed well in the 'Mountain God' case that was handled by the second action team, so I came to ask you, do you want to join our action team sixteen?"

It turned out to be someone who came to poach the wall.Lu Ming felt relieved, and opened his mouth to refuse.But Wang Zheng waved his hand first, and said, "Don't rush to refuse. Lu Ming, let me ask you one thing first. Why did you join the Operation Division of the Planetary Security Bureau?"

Lu Ming was taken aback.

"Sorry, this is my personal secret..."

Wang Zheng smiled: "Then, Lu Ming, do you know what kind of job this is?"

"I know, the investigation took place on Earth, there is..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted again by Wang Zheng.

"You think that this is a job that can make your life exciting and exciting, that you can get in touch with things that you couldn't imagine before, that you can become a hero who hides in the dark and fights for all mankind, and that it can provide you with great benefits. A sense of accomplishment, and at the same time, the pay is so good that you can't even imagine a job, right?"

Lu Ming was silent.

The second action team is a relatively ideal team.This point was confirmed by Lu Ming during the in-depth conversation with Zhang Dingshan, He Wei, and Lu Qingliang before joining the second action team.

He still remembered the words that Zhang Dingshan told himself loudly at that time.

"These teams in our operation are the last line of defense against supernatural forces in the human world. Every member must have the awareness to dedicate everything, including life, to the safety of the human world at any time.

We are the brave who walk in the darkness, we must do everything possible to wipe out those things that may threaten the human world in the darkness.Moreover, our achievements will never be known to the public.

If you don't have such awareness, then, Lu Ming, you are unqualified, and I will never allow you to join us. "

As a witness and victim of the "Mountain God" incident, no one knows better than Lu Ming the harm and pain that these "supernatural forces" can bring to the human world.Therefore, Lu Ming thinks that he has this awareness.

of course……

In addition to the necessary awareness, Lu Ming did not rule out other aspects.

For example, what Wang Zheng said at this moment.

Exciting and wonderful life, good enough treatment, great sense of accomplishment...

These things cannot be clearly stated, but it is undeniable that this is also one of the reasons why Lu Ming is determined to join the second action team, although these reasons are not dominant.

Well, half at best.

But there was one point that Lu Ming didn't agree with.

"The salary of this job...isn't that good. The annual salary is only 50, compared to some gold-collar workers, executives, bosses, it's not much..."

Lu Ming was taken aback when he saw Wang Zheng, which seemed quite unexpected.

"Lu... Lu Ming, you don't think that our treatment is only 50?"

"There are also public medical care, room allocation and so on, I know. Well, the treatment is really good."

It's just good, but if it's too good to imagine, it's a little bit worse.

Wang Zheng couldn't help but laugh.

"Lu Ming, do you know that the resources we can mobilize are beyond the reach of a billionaire? You know that when we go to society, many officials who ordinary people can't even meet have to respect us What? Who do you think we are? We are the last line of defense to protect the human world, how can our treatment, our authority, be measured by the mere 50 on the surface?"

"Are we so powerful?"

Lu Ming was a little shocked.

"It seems that since you joined the job, there have been no traditional villains such as unscrupulous rich second-generation, official second-generation, and black second-generation to provoke you, and then let you slap you in the face so that you can realize what kind of character you have. strength."

Wang Zheng sneered: "But you probably don't understand it. From the moment you join the job, your relatives have been included in the unified secret protection, and those people will not have the chance to mess with you."

Lu Ming was stunned again.

Zhang Dingshan never told him about these things.

"Okay, give up your unrealistic fantasies about being a hero. Let me tell you what kind of job we are in."

Wang Zheng stood up and looked down at Lu Ming: "Our job is actually very simple to say. It's just a deal. The world government gives us extremely good treatment, solving all our material and spiritual needs, and then , we work for the world government and the human world.”

"That's right, it's working hard! Lu Ming, do you think this job can make you a hero? It can make your life rich and colorful? It's just an appearance! Its essence is that every time you perform a mission, you must do your best to die. Be prepared to lose, you have to wander between life and death every minute and every second, and you must always be prepared to lose your life the next moment!
Lu Ming, do you know that there are [-] action teams in the entire operation, except for one support staff, each action team has at least three to nine field staff, what is the annual elimination rate, or death rate? ? "
