"Xiao Jun! Xiao Jun!" Muto Junko broke down when she heard the gunshot. She pounced on Xiao Tu like a madman and hugged him in her arms.
In the next moment, Xiao Tu looked at her tear-stained appearance and laughed softly."Junko, we were tricked. There are no bullets in the gun."
The moment the gunshot rang out, Xiao Tu's entire body trembled. He even thought that he was going to die.
However, there was no pain. He quickly reacted. The gunshot did not come from the gun in his hand.
He held Muto Junko in his arms and looked at Zhuang Xiaoman. She was holding a pistol in her hand. White smoke was still coming out of the muzzle. It was obvious that she was the one who fired the gun.
This evil woman with a bad taste had not changed at all.
Zhuang Xiaoman saw Xiao Tu looking at her and smiled gently."Mr. Xiao is really a hero who sacrifices himself for others. In that case, I'll let you live. Mr. Xiao, we'll meet again.”
After saying that, she turned around and left.
Those people also quickly retreated with her.
Xiao Tu looked at her back view and thought to himself," Bad woman, I'll remember what happened today. I'll get back at you next time.
"Xiao Jun, are you alright? Are you really alright?" Muto Junko repeatedly sized up Xiao Tu with a nervous expression.
Xiao Tu showed her the gun and let her know that there were no bullets in it. Only then did she feel relieved.
Looking at the gun in his hand, Xiao Tu put it away. Perhaps he would have to rely on it for a long time in the future.
……
In the evening, Xiao Tu finally brought Muto Junko back to the Wei Nation's embassy.
"Xiao Jun, I'll go back to my room and put the flowers in.”Muto Junko said to Xiao Tu as she hugged the rose.
After today's incident, Muto Junko and Xiao Tu had become much closer. The way she looked at Xiao Tu was obviously gentle.
"Yes, I am. Go, I'll go see Consul Muto first.”Xiao Tu nodded.
Muto Junko took a deep look at Xiao Tu, then quickly ran back to her room.
Looking at her back, Xiao Tu chuckled and walked to Muto Shio's office door and knocked.
"Please come in!" Muto Shio's voice came in.
Xiao Tu pushed the door open and walked in. Muto Shio raised his head to see him and said warmly,
"Xiao Jun! You're back? How was it? Did everything go well today?"
"Overall, it was alright. However, on the way back, a friend seemed to have played a joke on me.”Xiao Tu narrowed his eyes.
"Haha! Xiao Jun, you really saw through it.”Muto Shio laughed.
The office door opened.
Zhuang Xiaoman walked elegantly to Xiao Tu's side.
"Mr. Xiao, we meet again.”Zhuang Xiaoman said to Xiao Tuman.
Xiao Tu looked at her, then at Muto Shio, and finally spread his hands.
"Haha, I'm not sure. Xiao Jun, let me introduce you to Miss Zhuang Xiaoman, a high-ranking intelligence officer of the government.”Muto Shio said to Xiao Tu.
"So it's Miss Zhuang. Miss Zhuang really scared me just now.”Xiao Tu smiled bitterly at Zhuang Xiaoman.
"Mr. Xiao's courage really makes Xiaoman admire him. It was just a small joke just now. Please don't take it to heart, Mr. Xiao.”Zhuang Xiaoman said with a smile.
"Alright, the misunderstanding has been resolved. Miss Zhuang, you can go back to work. Xiao Jun and I still have some things to discuss.”Muto Shio waved at Zhuang Xiaoman.
"Yes." Zhuang Xiaoman glanced at Xiao Tu and turned to leave.
With just one glance, Xiao Tu knew that Zhuang Xiaoman had her eyes on him. She had always wanted to get information from Muto Shio, but she had never succeeded. Now that she saw him being close to Muto Shio, she probably had some ideas.
After Zhuang Xiaoman left, Muto Shio came to Xiao Tu's side.""Xiao Jun, sit."
Xiao Tu sat down.
"I'll get straight to the point. I admire your courage and philosophy. I hope you can work for me in the future. Of course, as a reward, I will give you 300 yuan a month as a social fee. What do you think?" Muto Shio said directly.
Xiao Tu's heart skipped a beat. Muto Shio had indeed recruited him.
He pondered for a moment before shaking his head."Consul Muto, you and I share the same ideals. You and I have the same goal. Working for you is the same as working for me. So, I'll skip the social fee. In the future, if there was a need to spend money, he would naturally ask the Consul for instructions.”
This was the result of his careful consideration. 300 yuan was a lot of money in the present, equivalent to tens of thousands in the future. However, he could not take this money. If he did, he would really become a lackey of the Wei Nation.
However, he also knew that rejecting Muto Shio so directly might cause him to be wary and alienate him, so he proposed a compromise.
"However, Xiao Tu has a presumptuous request. Consul Muto, please do me a favor.”
"Oh? Xiao Jun, please speak."
"After Xiao Tu returned to the country, he didn't even have a place to stay. He's still staying in a hotel. I wonder if Consul Muto can find a place for him to stay?”
Muto Shio smiled and said," This is very simple. How about this? You go and find Hu Yibiao. He's very familiar with Shanghai and knows which houses are empty." You can look for him wherever you like."
"Ding! The host told a reasonable lie, and the other party believed it.”
"Difficulty level: 3. Obtained 20 lying points."
Xiao Tu's eyes flashed.
(PS[Thank you for the 100 points reward, but I can't see your name in the background.])
