Lu Linbei returned home very late. Chen Manchi was a little anxious again. As soon as he heard the door open, he ran over and hugged him. It took him a long time to let go. "Is it true that something happened to Professor Mao?"
"Well, it's him. I went to see him."
"The news said it was an accident, but I don't think it was..."
"He committed suicide." Lu Linbei led Chen Mandu to sit down at the dining table. "There is something I want to tell you."
Chen slowly waited with a pale face.
"The matter is not over yet." Lu Linbei started with these words that he had thought about for a long time.
"Is it still Team Leader Guan?" Chen Manchi's expression softened a little.
"Her last name is Wen now."
A smile gradually appeared on Chen Manchi's face, "It doesn't matter what her last name is, she is still her and will not change."
"Aren't you afraid?" Lu Linbei was a little surprised.
"Well... be afraid. Once you are afraid, you get used to it." Chen Manchi has a strange character. He attributes everything he encounters in life to "fate". When he encounters good things, he accepts them calmly. When he encounters bad things, he accepts them calmly. , try to look forward and comfort yourself with "the long-term direction of destiny".
Lu Linbei is another kind of person who always lives in the present. As for the future, it is all specific plans, clearly arranged in front of him according to the level of possibility. Unexpected things are allowed, but ambiguity is never allowed. Even more unwilling to obey the arrangements of "fate".
Lu Linbei also smiled. He liked her who had a different personality from his own. "Our situation may become more dangerous in the next few days."
"Team Leader Guan...are you going to take action?" Chen Manchi still showed a bit of fear. Habits are habits. She was really afraid of Guan Zhuqian.
"That's what the rumors say." Lu Linbei tried to keep his tone as relaxed as possible without saying that he had obtained clear evidence. "In the past few months, our safety, including the safety of Guanzhuqian, has been protected from all major planets. Guarantee, now, this guarantee is still there, but it cannot stop the desire for revenge.”
"I really don't understand why Team Leader Guan always stares at me..." Chen Manchi murmured, like a child being bullied by his peers.
"Because she is a proud person and will never allow her chess pieces to move on their own."
"But...her tasks are so difficult..." Chen Manchi felt even more aggrieved and a little angry, "Can't you even quit?"
Lu Linbei smiled and shook his head.
Chen Manchi sighed softly, "I also know it's impossible. Team Leader Guan does have the kind of character you mentioned. The moment she kidnapped me, she once said, 'People like me will never accept any betrayal.' , the scariest thing is the phrase 'people like me'. I have never understood, what kind of person is she? Is she very different from me and you? I just don't want to work for her, is it a betrayal? I I never wanted to go against her."
"I got some information that may explain the problem. Do you remember that there was a dead boyfriend before Guan Zhu?"
Chen nodded slowly.
"Early reports said her boyfriend died in an accident, which was not entirely accurate. In fact, the police initially determined there were signs of homicide, but later changed it to an accident."
Chen Manchi's eyes widened in horror, and then showed an expression of disbelief.
"Although there has never been a conclusion, several relatives and friends of the man insist that he was killed by Guan Zhuqian."
"Why?" Chen Manchi asked softly.
"Only Guan Zhuqian knows the exact reason. The statement I got is that the man once proposed breaking up."
"Just for this?" Chen Manchi became more and more unbelievable.
"Maybe the man made another mistake, or maybe it was just because he proposed to break up that Guan Zhuqian was tempted to kill. On the bright side, Guan Zhuqian has a heart that will never admit defeat. She was born in an ordinary family, and she is not wealthy. A powerful family, not an interstellar orphan, just an ordinary family. It was because of her unwillingness to admit defeat that she was appreciated and reused by her superiors. Even after she took unauthorized actions and came to Jiazi Planet, she still obtained the King Star. Military Intelligence’s forgiveness.”
"Even the sisters here like her." Chen Manchi added.
"She has this ability. In order to complete the task, she will do whatever it takes. People who reuse her value this, but they don't understand that Guan Zhuqian will only work for herself, not an organization.' Like her 'The person' is the person who must be a head taller than others."
"I understand. How are we going to deal with this? You must have a plan, right?"
"Plan" is one of the projects that Lu Linbei is good at. "If there are people like her, there will be organizations like the emergency department and the farm. If the crook is killed before Guanzhu, the farm will not give up." Revenge. Therefore, the two of us were left on Jiazi Star just to lure Guan Zhuqian to take the initiative."
Lu Linbei decided to tell the truth. Now, he is no longer simply performing a task, but also wants to save the lives of himself and his fiancée. There is no need to "isolate" anymore.
Chen nodded slowly, "Actually, I guessed it. You didn't let me go out casually, and you installed a lot of equipment in the store that I didn't recognize, and this."
Chen Manchi's ten fingers were once again covered with rings. Unfortunately, none of the previous rings, especially the engagement ring, had been recovered. She bought many cheap jewelry from immigrants, one of which was special. What Lu Linbei gave her was not a backup for the engagement ring.
The ring is a tracker and monitor. Through it, Lu Linbei can understand the situation around Chen Manchi in real time.
Lu Linbei held one of her hands and said, "I can't refuse this task, but I won't let anything happen to you again."
Chen slowly smiled and said, "I'm more worried about you. Team Leader Guan must hate you especially because you always ruin her plans."
"This is the core of the plan. We and Guan Zhuqian hate each other and want to kill each other."
Chen slowly opened her mouth and wanted to say that she had no intention of "killing the other party", but in the end she didn't say it. She felt that she had no choice.
"But the planet's guarantee still exists. Anyone who violates it will cause trouble for themselves." Lu Linbei continued, "Both Guan Zhuqian and I have made plans, and they are probably similar plans: to lure the other party to take action first. , and then fight back legitimately."
"Team Leader Guan took action before you?"
"The rumors say that Guan Zhuqian probably got the support of Jiazixing. She must have acted secretly. She used a third party to force me to 'take action first', and then she would fight back publicly."
"a little complicated."
"Everyone knows that taking the first move can gain an advantage, but they all want to create the illusion that the other party makes the first move. That's pretty much what it means."
Chen slowly nodded hesitantly, "What do you need from me?"
"The next few days, possibly longer, will be more dangerous, and I need you to be more careful."
"Team Leader Guan wouldn't break into my house and shoot me, would he?"
"No, in that case, she will lose."
"Then I stay at home and don't go out - can I buy groceries?"
"I'll go and buy."
"Okay. Can I still tell customers' fortunes? Business has been good recently."
"Okay, but don't get into any dispute with anyone. If anyone provokes you, please notify me immediately."
Chen slowly smiled and said: "Do you think all the people you meet on the wandering road are good people? In the field of life magic, you often come into contact with weird people. I know how to deal with them... I will inform you immediately."
Lu Linbei patted the back of Chen Manchi's hand twice with satisfaction.
"What about you? What are you going to do? If you are always running outside, wouldn't it be more dangerous?" Chen Manchi asked.
"I am an official of Zhai Wangxing. No one dares to touch me easily." Lu Linbei's words are only half correct. Official status can provide protection, but it is also easy to frame him, but he doesn't want Chen Manchi to worry too much.
"I really hope things will pass quickly. I really hope no more people will die. If someone must die... I hope it will be Team Leader Guan."
"And one more thing."
"ah?"
"I hope we can get married soon."
"As soon as possible...how quickly?"
"tomorrow."
Chen Manchi has been carefully planning the wedding at the end of the year. He has prepared two plans, one in Jiazixing and one in Zhaiwangxing. He will choose one according to the future situation. However, if he gets married tomorrow, there will be no time to implement either plan.
But she realized, "You want me to have an 'official status' too?"
"Well, I'll go to the embassy to register tomorrow. It won't affect the wedding at the end of the year."
"You really understand me." Chen smiled slowly, then showed a bit of shock, "From tomorrow on, I will be 'Mrs. Lu'!"
"Yes, and he will become an official resident of King Zhai."
Chen slowly shrugged, "I'm a wanderer. I don't belong to any planet. I'm just a little weird."
"What's weird?"
"I always thought that I would end up like Mrs. Red Magpie, marrying hastily, divorcing hastily, and being alone from beginning to end. This is the fate of a wanderer, no matter how many people have walked with me on the road, There is always one person left in the end. But you are not sloppy at all. You are the least sloppy person I have ever seen. If I saw someone like you in normal times, I would consciously stay away, not because I am afraid of you. But I don’t want to waste time, because you won’t ask me for fortune telling, and you won’t be easily deceived by me.”
"And I don't look like a rich person." Lu Linbei said with a smile.
Chen slowly nodded and said: "This is very important, so I have to find a way to make money for the two of us. What I want to say is that without the team leader, we will never get together, and we will never realize how much we have. Suitable."
Lu Linbei thought for a while, "Thank you to fate. There is no need to thank fate for being a tool. Guan Zhuqian unknowingly acted as a tool. That was fate's mockery of her."
"Occasionally, you are really good at talking." Chen slowly smiled.
"I'll practice more."
"Don't do it. It's good once in a while. If you keep saying good things every day, I'll be worried."
"What are you worried about?" Lu Linbei was a little confused.
"Are you really confused, or are you pretending to be confused?" Chen Manchi stared at Lu Linbei for a while, then stepped forward to kiss him, "You are really confused, I like you like this. Oh my god, we are getting married tomorrow. , I don’t think I can sleep tonight.”
The two of them did fall asleep very late. Chen Manchi kept urging Lu Linbei to go to bed first, but her presence was the reason why Lu Linbei couldn't fall asleep. The two of them chatted aimlessly, never mentioning Guan Zhuqian, never mentioning Guan Zhuqian. The immediate threat only cares about the most trivial matters.
Lu Linbei enjoyed this calmness and also enjoyed the coming storm.
