Paranormal Investigation Notes

Chapter 84 Mode
Facing Wang Zheng's question, Lu Ming said in a low voice: "Generally speaking, every year, depending on the number of tasks, there will be at least one death and as many as ten deaths. Sometimes in extreme situations, the number of deaths is even greater. too much."

Zhang Dingshan had already told him about the dangers of becoming an official member of the action team based on these data.

Wang Zheng looked directly into Lu Ming's eyes: "I remember that more than ten years ago, in one year, in just one year, six action teams were wiped out, twelve action teams died, and a total of 46 action teams died. people died. That year, the total number of field personnel in 30 action teams was 152.”

This is a 30% mortality rate!
Although he already knew about this matter, when Wang Zheng told it at this moment, Lu Ming still felt a chill in his heart.

He remembered again that he was transported to another strange planet by a spaceship during the handling of the "Mountain God" incident.

If Zhang Dingshan hadn't ventured to come later, he would have died at that time.

"Moreover, this death rate is based on the premise that every field agent has received strict training, and, if necessary, almost unlimited manpower and material resources can be mobilized anytime and anywhere."

Perhaps it was the aggression possessed by Wang Zheng. At this moment, even though he already knew what he said, he still felt the real threat of death.

The great sense of accomplishment, thrills, colorful life, and the dream of becoming a hero, behind it lies the blood and cruelty hidden in the dark.

Wang Zheng continued to smile and said, "Each team has at least four people, and at most nine people. Lu Ming, do you know why the second operational team only has three people before you?"

This is another point that Lu Ming didn't think of before.

Why is there only three people in the second action team before him?Could it be...

"That's right, it's exactly what you think." Wang Zheng snapped his fingers: "One team member died."

Lu Ming stared straight into Wang Zheng's eyes: "Since it's so dangerous, why don't you leave or resign? I remember that there is no such thing as not allowing resignation in the Operations Department."

Before Lu Ming joined the second operation team, Zhang Dingshan had clearly told him that any official member had the right to resign at any time before the mission started.

Of course, if you choose to resign, the relevant treatment given by the World Government will be partially or completely withdrawn according to different situations.

Of course, once the acceptance of the task is confirmed, resignation is not allowed.

Wang Zheng laughed, and his voice echoed in the training hall.

"Since it's a transaction, it must be done if both parties are willing. Lu Ming, do you think that if it wasn't so dangerous and required such high quality personnel, the World Government and the Operations Department could offer such a high price for you and me? Such a good treatment?"

Lu Ming was silent.

After a while, he murmured, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"What I want to say is very simple. I invite you to join Action Team Sixteen." Wang Zheng smiled and said, "My price is that you have the opportunity to become teammates with the strongest. Only the strongest cooperate with each other. Only by relying on each other will it be possible to survive in constant tasks, enjoy the extraordinary treatment given by the world government, and accumulate enough treatment levels and wealth to finally retire safely.

However, my Action Sixteen Team, from my captain to the team members, are all the strongest.

You performed well enough to qualify as a temporary member of Operation Sixteen.If you can continue to maintain your excellence, you will become an official member of Action Sixteen in the future. "

"Lu Ming, why stop?"

At this time, Zhang Dingshan, who had left before, left and returned.

Seeing Zhang Dingshan come in, Lu Ming hurriedly stood up: "Captain Zhang, it is Captain Wang who is looking for me, looking for me..."

Wang Zheng didn't seem to see Zhang Dingshan, but still looked at Lu Ming with a smile on his face: "Team Zhang of your second action team used to be a very good captain. But since that incident,..."

He shook his head, as if regretting something: "If you are interested, just come to me, welcome anytime."

After that, he turned around and bowed to Zhang Dingshan exaggeratedly: "Hello, Captain Zhang."

After that, he straightened up, laughed and left.

Lu Ming looked at Zhang Dingshan, and saw that his expression was still calm, without any fluctuations.

"Keep training."

"Yes."

Lu Ming hastily agreed.

In the next training session, because he was always absent-minded, Lu Ming made mistakes several times.If the coach hadn't been watching from the side all the time, he might have been injured.

After today's class was finally over, Lu Qingliang found him.

"Lu Ming, your house purchase funds have been approved, find some time and go to see the house."

This is also one of the benefits for the field staff of the Operations Division.

According to different levels, each field worker has a certain amount of funds to buy a house, and can freely buy any house in any city in the world.As long as the limit is not exceeded, the purchase price will be fully provided by the Action Office.

For Lu Ming, a field worker who has just joined the second operation team and has not even performed a single mission - the previous "Mountain God" incident does not count, and the amount of funds for his house purchase is probably enough to buy a large apartment in a prime location in the capital city. house.

Moreover, the follow-up decoration, electrical appliances, furniture, etc. will also be provided by the Operations Department.Even the subsequent water and electricity bills, babysitting fees, property fees, car, gas fees, insurance, etc. are all provided by the Operations Department.

This is part of the invisible benefits behind the 50 annual salary hidden on the surface.

Of course, at this moment, Lu Ming only has the right to use this house, but does not own it yet.If he resigns now, the house will have to be taken back.

"Okay, I see, take the time."

Lu Ming answered absently.

"Lu Ming, what's wrong with you?"

Lu Ming looked at Lu Qingliang: "Let's act in the second team, did something happen before I came?"

"Oh?"

"Today, the captain of Operation [-], Wang Zheng, came to see me..."

Lu Ming recounted what happened today.

As a result, Lu Qingliang's expression became more gloomy.

"Yes, something happened. But...it is related to the details of a certain mission. I can't tell you because of the confidentiality rules. What I can tell you is that, originally, our second operation team, and Wang Zheng's operation ten Team Six is ​​the only team among the [-] teams in the Operation Department that was rated as the first rank. However, after that incident, our team’s rating dropped to the lowest rank, the D rank.”

The rating of the team is related to a series of treatment issues, and also related to many aspects such as the voice and priority within the operation department.

Lu Ming knew before that the second action team had the lowest grade D, but he didn't know that it was because of a certain incident that it was directly dropped from the highest grade A to D grade.

"It's the code of secrecy again!" Lu Ming grumbled, "It's all from the Operations Department, and it's unreasonable to keep it so strictly confidential!"

The Operations Department handles so many supernatural incidents every year. From a common sense, shouldn't the handling process and results of these incidents be publicly known to every field staff?

The more cases you are familiar with, the more experience and lessons you can sum up, and the better you can handle the next case.

As a result, the regulations of the Action Department are that, except for some public information, such as certain scientific and technological creations, such as the "neutrino bomb" used in the Shanshen incident, the handling process and methods of each case, The results were kept strictly confidential, and even internal personnel were not allowed to circulate them. As a result, although Lu Ming was hired, he didn't even know about one of the other cases.

"You are mistaken."

Lu Qingliang shook his head: "Behind every regulation of the Operations Department, there are a lot of blood and tears experience and lessons.

The reason why this regulation was introduced was that a large number of analysts behind the Operation Department discovered that there is no such thing as experience and lessons for supernatural events.

Because almost no two cases have anything in common.The experience and lessons of the previous case are not only of little benefit to the next case, but it is easy for the investigators to fall into the trap of experience, and it is easy to mess things up.

Only the personal qualities of field personnel, such as psychology, force, decision-making ability, imagination, association ability, etc., are fundamental. Experience is not important at all, but harmful.

So, the Department stipulates that all cases are prohibited from being circulated and kept strictly confidential, in order to prevent us from bringing the experience of other cases to new cases.It is also for this reason that we veteran players have to receive special psychological training after each mission. "

Lu Ming thought about it, and felt that it made sense, so he couldn't help feeling resentful.

But after a while, he realized: "This is wrong! Every case has to be kept secret, so how did Wang Zheng know that I performed well?"

Lu Qingliang snorted: "There are [-] action teams in the office. Except for Wang Zheng's [-]th team, every other team has a reserve team. New recruits usually come from the reserve team. You know that?"

Lu Ming nodded: "I know that. But the [-]th team doesn't have a reserve team? Then they...uh."

Lu Ming suddenly understood.

The sixteenth team has no reserve team because the remaining 29 action teams are the sixteenth team's reserve team.

Being able to be recruited into the team by Zhang Dingshan proves his excellence.Wang Zheng didn't need to know the truth about the "Mountain God" incident at all.

After absorbing himself as a temporary team member, whether it is a mule or a horse that is pulled out for a walk and performs a mission, the specific quality can be seen of course.Then eliminate the inferior ones and keep the superior ones, and the cycle continues.

"No wonder Wang Zheng dared to say that the sixteenth team is all strong..."

The real strong, not afraid of challenges, will of course have the confidence to stand out.As a result, they can form a team with the rest of the strong ones who stand out, and get the highest survival rate among the field personnel of the entire operation department.

This model has a natural appeal to the real strong.
