Chapter 482: What a Shame That Your Reflex Terrible

Without much deliberation, Gu Qingjiu signed the agreement…

Even if she had yet to see what special place this Ninth Department was or if it was a place for her to prove her uniqueness.

However, other than the weird quirks in Lu Ziyang’s speech, Gu Qingjiu was sure that the Ninth Department belonged to the country.

After signing, Lu Ziyang pa.s.sed her personal copy to her, and then he stretched out his hand. “I am officially welcoming you into the Ninth Department.”

This time, he finally shook hands with Gu Qingjiu.

After they had completed the agreement, Gu Qingjiu still felt befuddled. Did she sell herself off just like that?

At that moment, she didn’t even have the slightest idea of what the Ninth Department was.

Lu Ziyang was sorting the doc.u.ments when he suddenly paused.

Gu Qingjiu noticed his strange action and was left confused. Suddenly, her scalp tingled ominously. Without hesitation, she pushed Lu Ziyang down onto the table with a single arm. “Careful!”

At that moment, a small bullet flew over Lu Ziyang’s head at a fast speed.

“Bam—” The bullet struck the metal wall on the opposite side.

It was a rubber bullet!

Gu Qingjiu narrowed her eyes and turned towards the direction where the shot was fired. From an entrance opposite of where she entered came two people.

A male and a female.

And they were both pretty good looking.

Both seemed exceptionally close, and they even looked alike. They were probably siblings.

As the two walked in, the man twirled a gun in his hands as if treating it like it was his toy.

He looked at Gu Qingjiu in surprise. “Wow, this newbie is pretty good!”

Although he had said that, it seemed to barely conceal the imposing and arrogant aura he carried as a senior who arrived at the department before her.

“You guys are too much!”

Lu Ziyang’s gla.s.ses almost fell off when Gu Qingjiu pushed him down.

He straightened up and looked at the cold gaze in Gu Qingjiu. Adjusting his gla.s.ses, he said, “Do both of you still respect me as a superior?”

“It’s just a joke. We wanted to test the reflex of the recruit. Boss, it’s not as if you don’t know it was a rubber bullet. It would just hurt a little.”

The one who spoke was the man. He had the face of someone who treated things indecorously, as if not taking everything to heart.

Their relations.h.i.+p was strange – or at least Gu Qingjiu felt that it was strange.

Lu Ziyang was their superior, so why would they treat him in this manner?

As he turned to look at Lu Ziyang again, he looked helpless against this pair.

“Testing the recruit while using your superior as a bait?…”

Before he could complete his sentence, the man smirked cheekily and threw the gun onto the table. “Hey newbie, aren’t you a talented sharpshooter? Take the gun and point at me. See if you can…”

Before he could complete his sentence, Gu Qingjiu abruptly swept the gun up and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

He reacted quickly, but since he wasn’t expecting Gu Qingjiu to shoot even before he could finish his sentence, he only barely avoided it. However, due to the short distance, she still scored a shot on his chin.

“Ouch!”

Even if it was a rubber bullet, it still hurt a lot when it hit his chin.

He cried out in pain as he cradled his chin.

The girl beside was stunned. Her icy gaze instantly turned towards Gu Qingjiu and saw her put the gun down.

The smile on Gu Qingjiu’s face was mild, but her words were cold.

“What a shame that senior’s reflex is terrible.”
