Upon hearing this, Asuka Tomoki secretly breathed a sigh of relief, saluted quickly, and then turned around and walked out of the meeting room. After everyone left the conference room and closed the door, Asuka Tomoki breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his forehead with the back of his hand, and said: "It's finally over..." After the words fell, a familiar voice sounded beside Asuka Tomoki's ears: "Looking at you like this, you have made it this time..." Upon hearing this, Asuka Tomoki turned around and immediately saw his old acquaintance Nagoya Shigeaki. Seeing that it was one of his own, Asuka Tomoki stopped pretending and said with a wry smile: "I guess I've gotten through it... To be honest, I almost thought I was going to be punished after this report." As he spoke, Asuka Tomoki paused and explained: "The captain of the French detachment was brought to court-martial. The captain and deputy captain of the Lucia detachment were dismissed. The two captains of the English detachment were forced to transfer to Northern Ireland. Even the American detachment was warned." "Except for the Tianchao Action Team who received an award, everyone else suffered. Do you think I wouldn't be afraid?"

"To be honest, I thought I would be forced to resign this time like my predecessors..." "That shouldn't be the case..." Nagoya Shigeaki shook his head. He leaned against the wall of the corridor and said softly, "At most, you just didn't solve the problem. Although it can't be said that you have made a great contribution, at least you are not at fault..." "And speaking of great achievements..." Nagoya Shigeaki pointed to the right, signaling Asuka Tomoki to look over there: "That side is the biggest contributor." Hearing this, Asuka Tomoki turned his head and immediately saw a man wearing a black suit, with slightly childish cheeks but extremely handsome, and a tall and beautiful woman with blonde hair and a calm face who was walking with him. At this time, Nagoya Shigeaki next to him said quietly: "You should know everyone over there, right?" "The director of the SDS Secret Management Department, Luo Shu, and the director of the Operations Department, Tachibana Kirika, are the most prominent figures in this incident. I heard that they sent people to block the hand in the sky." "Although it's just gossip, I heard that the United is considering setting up another action team in Akihabara and letting SDS manage it." Hearing this, Asuka Tomoki immediately thought of the previous conversation in the conference room, and said with an unnatural expression: "No way? Lucia and the Celestial Empire won't agree, right?" "After all, this will strengthen America's power in the island nation..." "I thought so too." Nagoya Shigeaki lowered his voice at this time: "But I heard that before the reporting meeting this morning, the two had secretly contacted the Celestial Ambassador." When Asuka Tomoki heard this, his eyes widened and he said in astonishment: "Are you sure it's a secret contact?" We had a secret contact in the morning, and now we know about it at 9 o'clock. How can this be called a secret contact? Isn't this public? At this time, Nagoya Shigeaki complained: "Everyone knows it, but it cannot be told. It is a secret."

At this point, Nagoya Shigeaki couldn't help but say: "I guess the Chinese government is starting to win over this 'overseas Chinese'." “That’s why I said that it’s possible that SDS will actually have a new joint operations team, even if it’s in the name of a detachment.” Hearing this, Asuka Tomoki's expression was somewhat complicated. Although he had long since accepted that there were always geniuses far superior to himself in the world, the fact that the other party was only in his twenties and had caught up with or even surpassed himself who was in his forties made him feel a little uneasy. "Does this mean we will have an extra 'colleague' in the future?" "That's a good thing, after all, you seem to have a good relationship with Minister Luo... That's right, after all, people like you who work hard on the front line and help to 'clean up' are all your friends..." As he spoke, Nagoya Shigeaki could not help but ask: "You're probably going to have a few drinking parties tonight, right?" "Yes, I have to see off the captain of the Lucia Action Team. England has also invited me..." Thinking of this, Asuka Tomoki also smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid I'll get drunk and die at the table.. 0 " Hearing this, Nagoya Shigeaki thought that Asuka Tomoki was fine, but others were transferred and dealt with. After a little thought, he realized that Asuka Tomoki would definitely be the target of the fire at night. "Do you need me to make an appointment with a funeral home for you in advance?" "Get out of here!!" Asuka Youki rolled his eyes, turned around unhappily, and shouted: "Let's go! There's still a lot of shit to deal with in the team." "That's true..." Nagoya Shigeaki thought for a moment, sighed, and then quickly caught up with Asuka Tomoki. When the two left. At the end of the corridor, Luo Shu turned his head and looked in the direction the two people left. Ju Wuxiang, who was leaning against the window, turned her head slightly upon hearing this, glanced at the two departing figures, and immediately asked: "Did you see anyone you know?" "almost." Luo Shu responded, then turned around and said with a slightly distressed look: "But speaking of which, what did the Celestial Empire representative mean just now?" "You asked me if I was interested in managing a joint operations team... Isn't that too direct?" Ju Wuxiang raised her eyebrows and glanced at Luo Shu speechlessly: "Didn't you refuse?" Hearing this, Luo Shu shrugged and said calmly: "There is no way. I don't want to get involved in the fight between America and China. After all, our SDS is a non-governmental organization~~"

Hearing Luo Shu's slightly ambiguous words, Ju Wuxiang sighed: "But you hinted to the Celestial Empire to help you find the whereabouts of the 'Natural Fairy Spirit'. This doesn't seem to be consistent with your behavior of not wanting to get involved, right?" Luo Shu spread his hands and said innocently: "I have to owe my family some favors, right? Otherwise, it would be no fun to be called a traitor... But after joining SDS, can I be considered a traitor?" Ju Kirika understood Luo Shu's idea, but she also understood the other side's approach more: "If you want, as long as you have a deeper connection with that side, you can be a patriotic overseas Chinese. You can even get the treatment of half-mast flags after you die." "Wouldn't that bring honor to my family?" Luo Shu sneered at , but felt somewhat melancholy in his heart. Guangzong Yaozu? The ancestors' graves are not in this world, so where can they get the glory from?... Sighing inwardly, Luo Shu casually changed the subject and said: "But after I made the request, weren't they willing to make some arrangements and hand over Miss Iwanaga's body to us?" "You deal with the American ambassador, and I'll deal with the Chinese side. If both sides agree, won't things be stable?" Hearing this, Ju Wuxiang glanced at Luo Shu, and then said calmly: "I will convey this sentence to Lux exactly as it is." "Don't make it sound like I'm cheating on you..." Luo Shu looked at Ju Wuxiang with a smile, then shook his head, turned around and said: "Forget it, forget it. It's time to go collect Yanyong's body. Really, why do I have so many things to do..." Having said that, Luo Shu walked towards the exit on his own. Seeing this, Ju Wuxiang glanced at Luo Shu's back, curled the corners of her mouth slightly, and reminded him casually: "How far have we come? Once the Secret Management Department is officially operational, you will know how troublesome it is to be the head of a department..." “Is it too late to quit now?” "You have to finish the road you choose." "But you forced me to choose..." "....Is it my fault?" Chapter 270 Luo Shu is curious about what happened last night On the evening of the 26st. Luo Shu, who was sitting in the office flipping through documents, heard a knock on the door.

"Please come in." Luo Shu said this without raising his head, and then the door opened, and Yukinoshita Yukino, wearing black stockings and Toyonozaki school uniform, walked in. "Minister, the people from the alliance just contacted us and said that a batch of items are coming and asked us to hand them over in time." Hearing this, Luo Shu raised his head and glanced at Yukinoshita Yukino, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. "Are you from the Alliance? You're pretty fast..." He had already guessed what was being transported, so he wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he took a curious look at Yukinoshita Yukino's outfit: "But speaking of which, Yukino, are you going to wear this and go with me to pick up the goods later?" Yukinoshita Yukino lowered her head and glanced at her school uniform, then looked at Luo Shu in confusion: "Is this formal attire weird?" This school uniform that looks so exciting at first glance is actually formal wear. In my opinion, it is really strange... Luo Shu complained in his heart, and then casually evaded: "This is considered formal wear, so there's no problem." Luo Shu put the documents aside and stood up while explaining to Yukinoshita Yukino: "By the way, where's Xiao Huiren? I haven't seen her all day today. Is she resting?" "No, Kato-san is in my office sorting out last night's action report." "By the way, most of them are various documents and reports of the Phoenix Society provided by Miss Revel and Miss Mammon... Although it is not shown, I think Kato-san must be in a bad mood today." "Minister, are you sure you want to see Kato-san?" "Please pretend I didn't say that before..." Luo Shu very tactfully withdrew his previous inappropriate remarks. Kato Megumi was so oppressed by the sea of ​​documents that even her mood was shown on the surface... He still didn't touch the tiger's whiskers Thinking of this, Luo Shu even quickened his pace towards the underground parking lot, as if there was some kind of monster hiding on the third floor... - 10 minute later. Secret management department, underground parking lot. Luo Shu glanced at the refrigerated truck in front of him, then turned around and looked at Yukinoshita Yukino who was signing the acceptance with the people from the alliance. After Yukinoshita Yukino signed, the people from the alliance bowed and immediately left in another car. Our polite Miss Yukinoshita Yukino kept bowing as she saw us off until the vehicle drove out of the underground parking lot. Then she straightened up, adjusted her clothes and hair, and turned around. In this regard, Luo Shu lamented: "Social interaction in an island country is really exhausting!" Then keep responding "Hi! Hi! Hi", bowing, and smiling all the time. It's okay for a short time, but Luo Shu feels that he won't be able to bear it if he keeps doing this for a long time every day.

Whether it's the 'unsociable' Yukinoshita Yukino, the 'transparent presence' Kato Megumi, or the 'reclusive' Kasumigaoka Utaha, they can all handle this kind of thing properly. Should we say, they are worthy of being girls who grew up in the island society? Even if I'm not good at it, I'm better than a foreigner like him... Thinking of this, Luo Shu suddenly wanted to lure Yukinoshita Haruno-san, who was good at dealing with people, to work in the Secret Management Department. Letting such a child run a real estate company is simply a waste of resources~
