Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.

Chapter 737 How did you become so calculating?

Zhou Yichen's attraction to Chu Xin was not based on lust at first sight; rather, he gradually became deeply attracted to her through repeated conflicts.

So he didn't care whether Chu Xin was pretty or not, nor did he covet her ability to help him; he only cared about her as a person from beginning to end.

Regardless of whether Chu Xin was a normal person or not, his desire to spend his life with her would not change. He even did many things he would never have done before in order to help her cover it up.

When Chu Xin first expressed her intention to quit, Zhou Yichen was already planning her escape route.

He was worried that Chu Xin might cause more trouble after leaving the Special Branch and that there wouldn't be a proper way to clean up the mess, but he was also worried that without the rules and restrictions of the Special Branch, she would completely let herself go and play "murder and arson".

So Zhou Yichen thought of a special unit in China—the Institute for the Application of Human Extraordinary Abilities, also known as Bureau 749.

After witnessing those extraordinary individuals in Hong Kong, he specifically looked into it upon returning to China and discovered that China also had such mysterious entities.

It is said to have been established in 1965 with the approval of General Wang, and its code name originated from "the Fourth Research Bureau of the Seventh Office of the Ministry of National Defense". Initially, it was under the Ministry of National Defense, but later it was transferred to the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense. Its level of secrecy was extremely high.

Later, during the Cold War, influenced by the US-Soviet competition in paranormal research, this unit was given priority in promoting paranormal research.

Of course, Zhou Yichen didn't want Chu Xin to be researched, but rather to work as a mission taker.

There are quite a few people there who possess mysterious powers that are not for ordinary people. They are specifically tasked with investigating supernatural phenomena, paranormal events in various places, and even fighting against foreign mysterious organizations. If Chu Xin enters one of them, her abnormalities will simply be normal there.

Moreover, due to its extremely high level of secrecy, the people in Bureau 749 may keep a low profile, but they possess absolute law enforcement power, which is very suitable for Chu Xin.

Because she was so dazzling, even her lazy demeanor couldn't make people ignore her outstanding abilities. However, the special department's complicated rules and excessive constraints, while providing her with convenience, also limited her.

The new opportunity perfectly suited Chu Xin's characteristics. Although it also had high-standard rules, most of them were aimed at the task targets, which gave her enough room and freedom as an executor, and she didn't have to hide her abilities or live cautiously.

After Zhou Yichen patiently explained everything, Chu Xin's eyes widened, and the finger that had just poked his head was itching to poke again. Damn it, this time she wanted to poke a hole in it.

"You really are a man of few words but great deeds, Zhou Yichen. Didn't you ever think that I was just lazy and wanted to live a life of idleness and waiting to die?"

Tell me, do you not want to support me anymore?!

How could he not want to raise him? Zhou Yichen was so anxious that his face was all scrunched up, and he was so flustered that he didn't know whether to stand at attention and swear an oath or put down his things and hug the person in front of him tightly.

"I want to take care of you, I dream about it..."

As she spoke, her voice unconsciously weakened, "I know that you have the heart of a lazy bum, but your temper and ability to cause trouble mean that you can't just be a pure lazy bum."

There has to be someone to shield you from criticism, right?

Chu Xin:......

It sounds like they genuinely care about her, but why is she being so awkward?

Suppressing her temper, Chu Xin asked, "So what did you say about me?"

Zhou Yichen hurriedly said, "I know that in the end it depends on your opinion. I first looked for ways to see if they were interested in recruiting people. After that, I'll see if you want to go. If you don't want to go, then just consider it me asking out of curiosity."

"Oh……"

Chu Xin nodded slowly, "Is this what you said you wanted to ask me before I left?"

"Yes, I'm also waiting for their reply. But I've thought about it. Even if you go, don't stand out too much. You're strong and powerful, and with hypnosis, you should be able to get in."

Too much of a good thing can be bad; the bigger the tree, the more the wind will blow against it. It's best to keep a low profile.

Zhou Yichen spoke frankly, his attitude of wanting to perform well but not too well was clearly meant to make Chu Xin feel at ease finding a place to continue her aimless life.

Chu Xin frowned as she looked at Zhou Yichen.

Goodness, how did Zhou Yichen, who used to be so upright and incorruptible, strict with himself and others, become so calculating?
