Chapter Seventy: Who Captures Whom, Who Governs Whom

Hao Handsome walked out of the little black room with a heart full of conflicting emotions. The moment he stepped out, he was once again ready to get off the train. At that moment, he spotted a stray cat on the ground. Just then, Wang Zixuan's voice came through his wristband.

Wang Zixuan: "Attention, Investigation Center and all agents. Attention, Investigation Center and all agents. Intern agent Hao Handsome has fled to the South Train Station. Suspected of betrayal. Agents nearby, apprehend immediately. If he resists, shoot to kill."

Hao Handsome hurried back into the car.

Hao Handsome: "Driver, don't stop the meter—turn around. GOGOGO."

The driver was baffled, but he turned around and drove off. Without stopping, they went straight to the entrance of Supermarket No. 444. As soon as the taxi pulled up, Wang Zixuan's car arrived right behind. He got out, rolled up his sleeves, and seemed ready to stage a wild brawl right there on the street. Hao Handsome leisurely stepped out.

Wang Zixuan: "Ha, I finally caught you. What else is there to say?"

Hao Handsome feigned ignorance: "Caught for what? I'm coming to work. Look how dedicated I am—you saw me as soon as I arrived."

Wang Zixuan: "Work?"

Hao Handsome: "Of course."

Wang Zixuan cast a sidelong glance at the taxi: "You brought all this luggage to work?"

Hao Handsome: "As the saying goes, time is money, and money can't buy time. I think, spending so much time on the road every day is such a waste—wasting time is wasting life. So I decided to live in the supermarket. It will help me get familiar with the job and environment faster. Doesn't that make sense?"

Wang Zixuan pursed his lips skeptically: "And what about your dog?"

Hao Handsome nodded: "The dog? It’s out buying some dog food. It'll wander back home on its own soon."

Hao Handsome turned to his bewildered dog and said, "Little Four, don't wait for me. Go home by yourself."

Wang Zixuan revealed a sly smile: "Hao Handsome."

Hao Handsome: "Hmm?"

Wang Zixuan: "Just you wait. Don't let me catch you off guard."

With that, Wang Zixuan strode off in style.

Early in the morning, Little Deng went to the Investigation Center’s household registration department to chat with the big sister there.

Little Deng: "Look at this—full price one hundred ninety-nine, subtract one hundred. Feels like a great deal, right?"

Zhou Ning patted Little Deng’s arm: "Alright, alright, I’ll pick for myself."

Just then, Gu Weimin's big face appeared at the window.

Gu Weimin: "Morning!"

Zhou Ning: "Morning!"

Little Deng: "Morning!"

Zhou Ning and Little Deng glanced at Gu Weimin and went back to their business.

Gu Weimin looked back and saw something to drink. He picked it up: "Where’s Treasure? Living well, eh? Even got yogurt."

Holding the yogurt and watching them play, he headed to his own office. At the door, he ran right into Wang Zixuan, whose face was full of menace.

Wang Zixuan: "Old Gu."

Gu Weimin was so startled he stepped back several paces.

Gu Weimin: "Oh my goodness!"

Wang Zixuan, hands on his hips and face fierce, stared at Gu Weimin: "No matter what you do today, you must transfer that damned Hao Handsome."

Gu Weimin: "Zixuan, who catches whom and who manages whom—that’s the policy set above, isn’t it?"

Wang Zixuan: "Just as if you guys are capable of catching him."

Gu Weimin: "Hmm? Watch your tone. Show some respect. At the very least, call me uncle."
