Chapter 28 Before the collapse

After returning to the room, he curled up on the soft sofa and put on a blanket. Meng Fei finally felt that his body was warm again.

This time he was slightly injured after jumping off a building, so Luo An gave him half a month's leave. He is now in a state where he does not have to go to work.

In addition to continuing to learn about the human geography and history of the world and asking girls to drink milk tea, he sometimes has to hold his mobile phone in a daze.

When he was outside, he still took out his cell phone to make Didi calls, just to make himself appear normal.

But now at home, he doesn't need to take out his phone at all. He only needs to unfold the system in his mind to connect to the phone.

He could see the phone screen directly in his mind, with such high definition that he could zoom in and see every pixel on the phone screen clearly.

You can operate, type, and compare pictures just by thinking about it. Everything can be done in seconds without even moving your fingers. This feels really exciting.

If I were in my previous life, it wouldn't be a big problem to flirt with twenty girls at the same time. But in this life, I can't flirt with anyone at all.

Click on WeChat.

Choose the only girl.

tease.

"Captain Ai, what are you doing?"

At this time, Ai Ting was sweating profusely and staring at the two stacks of paper side by side on the table, trapped in a strong tangle.

She either signed the left side or the right side, and now a few signatures could determine her fate for the rest of her life.

Under the lewd gaze of this scumbag old man, she wanted to arrogantly sign her rejection and leave.

But what about level twelve? What about this damn level twelve?

The pen was clearly in her hand, but she felt like she couldn't lift it up. But at this moment, her cell phone beeped.

Click to open.

I fainted, and it turned out to be that boring perverted man with super powers again.

"You are so free!!"

She replied with a flick of her thumb.

Old Man Li reminded with an ugly face: "Before you decide to refuse or accept this invitation, please try not to contact the outside world."

At present, Ai Ting has not decided to join his organization, and she has not signed a confidentiality agreement. If the secret is leaked to the outside world, theoretically, there is nothing he can do.

"I did not say anything!"

"It won't happen again."

The mobile phone she placed on the table beeped again, and a sentence popped up: "I actually have something serious to see you for."

Ai Ting ignored him now.

But another sentence popped up on the screen:

"Do you have Tang Wenwen's WeChat account? If so, send it to me."

Ai Ting was furious.

I'm standing at a crossroads in life and don't know how to choose, but you still have time to ask me for WeChat ID to pick up girls!!

She simply stuffed the phone into her pocket.

Ai Ting has never thought of taking shortcuts. She has been working very hard in the Criminal Investigation Bureau and improving herself step by step.

But when the words "Level 12" came into her eyes, the situation was irreversibly changed.

No matter how hard you work, it doesn't matter. At most, you can accumulate qualifications and merits, be promoted to the eleventh-level deputy bureau in your fifties, and then work for a few more years and retire.

It was as if she suddenly won a prize of five million yuan. Even if she refused to accept the prize and went back to work, her monthly salary of five thousand yuan would no longer have the same flavor as before.

"What is the salary for a twelfth-level civil servant?"

After thinking for a long time, she couldn't help but ask.

Lao Li kindly said a number.

Ai Ting signed.

She really isn't in it for the money.

Satisfied, the old man put away all the documents and put them back into his extremely classic brown cowhide bag.

"Congratulations on joining the Goddess Faith Culture Research Association."

Ai Ting felt like she had black lines on her head. This name was so low-key that she didn't even dare to mention it in front of others.

"If you don't like the name,"

The old man said with a gentle smile.

"The name is just a code name. Internally, we are called the Ability Investigation Department."

"Paranormal Power Investigation Department?"

Ai Ting raised her head in despair.

"According to Resolution No. 392 of the Judiciary Committee of the Parliament in 2018, all cases related to supernatural powers will be under the jurisdiction of the Paranormal Power Investigation Department."

"Why have I never heard of such a thing as superpowers before?"

Her first reaction was serious dissatisfaction.

The country has long made it clear that there are supernatural beings?

She wasn't the first person to discover evidence of supernatural crimes?

It's like you were about to proudly claim that you were the first to discover the New World, only to find that others had already settled in the "New World".

But if supernatural powers have always existed, why has it never been clearly confirmed in the long history of the Republic?

Even if this kind of thing is kept strictly confidential, as time goes by, evidence will be leaked and eventually become known to the public.

"This is because the goddess..."

"No," Ai Ting stopped repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I'm not a believer."

"All right,"

The old man had to change his tone.

"Because in the history of the Republic, until 8015, there was really no supernatural phenomenon that was disclosed.

"In other words, the country's mainstream academic circles do not admit that any supernatural phenomena have been discovered.

"The first time in the history of our country that supernatural phenomena were recognized was in March 8015.

"Even on a global scale, the first time the supernatural phenomenon was clearly recognized was only in January 2015, less than two months earlier than our country.

"Before that, even if it had happened, well, it would have been heresy.

"The Department of Supernatural Power Investigation was established in Qingmang in 2017. The Parliament only passed the secret investigation bill on superpowers in 8018. It has only been two or three years now."

"All right."

Ai Ting still felt that something was wrong with this matter.

"Since there is evidence of the existence of supernatural powers and a supernatural power investigation department has been established, why must it be kept secret?"

She didn't believe those inexplicable reasons for secrecy in a certain country's blockbusters. The vulgar plot where the protagonist went around looking for people to tell him but no one believed it even made her vomit.

"From 2015 to now, the Parliament has been discussing the formulation of the "Supernatural Powers Law", but it has not been released because of too many controversies, so it has been kept secret for the time being."

Lao Li explained in a methodical tone.

"The goddess said..."

Whenever he mentioned the word "goddess", Ai Ting looked at him with a strange look, as if she was looking at a liar who was fooling old ladies on the podium.

He could only swallow his words again.

"But the parliament combined with the preliminary research results believes that supernatural powers themselves are not a reasonable phenomenon in this world."

Ai Ting showed disdain in her eyes.

If your science and technology can't explain it, do you think it's unreasonable?

Why don’t you think the basis of your scientific and technological theory is unreasonable?

In order to avoid being looked down upon by that scornful look, Lao Li changed the way he expressed himself.

"This world originally had no supernatural powers.

"The emergence of superpowers is the result of instability in the underlying foundation of this world.

"The source of this instability is currently unclear.

“It could be an external intrusion, it could be the exposure of internal problems, or both.

“But no matter what the problem is, it must be solved.

"Disclosing the existence of a power may have consequences.
