049 Visit(1/2)
Main world, July 28, 8:30 am.
Zhou Jing returned home and rang the doorbell.
There was movement in the house, a sound of footsteps approaching hurriedly, and Zhao Jing quickly opened the door.
"Lao San, you are back."
"Um."
Zhou Jing nodded, walked into the room, and found that his family was here again for the rare occasion.
Zhou Weian was sitting on the sofa, squinting and smoking one after another. The smoke was filling the air. The eldest brother and the second brother were sitting on the sofa on the other side, turning their heads to look over.
My family will also be notified of the visit by the Immigration Bureau, and everyone is waiting today.
After completing the final interview process, the immigration quota was truly determined and would not be changed again. Even my eldest brother took a day off specifically to witness it with his own eyes for peace of mind.
Seeing Zhou Jing come back, Zhou Wei'an stopped smoking.
He wanted to say something, but when it came to his mouth he didn't know what to say, so he had to find something to say:
"how are things?"
"good."
Zhou Jing's tone was calm, and he came to Zhou Wei'an, took off the cigarette between his fingers, and put it out in the ashtray.
Zhou Wei'an: "?"
"I've always hated the smell of cigarette smoke."
After Zhou Jing finished this, he found an empty seat and sat down, closing his eyes and resting his mind.
Zhou Wei'an frowned, took out another cigarette from the cigarette case, and continued to smoke by himself.
His eyes passed through the thin smoke screen and looked at Zhou Jing frequently.
Although he hadn't seen her for only seven or eight days, he felt that Zhou Jing's temperament had changed a lot, but he couldn't tell what had changed.
Next to me, the eldest brother and the second brother looked hesitant.
They wanted to talk, but looking at Zhou Jing with his eyes closed, they didn't dare to speak for some reason.
The two of them felt inexplicably that Zhou Jing had an indescribable aura and became a little strange.
They hadn't seen each other for just a few days, and they didn't know what happened to him... and they didn't dare to ask.
Zhou Jing did not speak, and everyone remained silent.
In the weird atmosphere, time passed by minute by second, and slowly came to nine o'clock.
Ding dong——
The doorbell rang.
Zhou Wei'an immediately jumped up from the sofa, walked to the door in a few steps, and opened the door.
Standing outside the door were two people wearing silver and red uniforms, a man and a woman.
Zhou Jing opened his eyes and looked at it.
The woman among them is Cheng Li who had the video call.
The man was someone I had never seen before. He was tall and had some tactical armed belts added to his uniform. He looked like a soldier or a bodyguard. He did not have a gun and had a dark stick stuck in his waist.
Cheng Li showed an ID, smiled politely, and said:
"Is this Mr. Zhou Jing's home? We are staff of the Xihai City Branch of the Interstellar Immigration Bureau."
"Yes, it's right here. Come in, you two." Zhou Wei'an smiled, stepped aside, and made an invitation gesture.
Two immigration staff walked into the living room.
Cheng Li glanced around and found Zhou Jing. She immediately turned around and looked over with a formulaic smile and said:
"Hello, Mr. Zhou Jing, I am Cheng Li. We have spoken through the phone. Before boarding the spacecraft, I will be responsible for your immigration work. Today is an arranged visit."
"Hello."
Zhou Jing nodded politely. After all, it was his job and he didn't want to lose face.
At this time, Zhou Wei'an stretched out his hand and said with a smile:
"Nice to meet you, I, Zhou Wei'an, am Zhou Jing's father."
Cheng Li raised her eyebrows, shook hands politely and responded: "Hello."
Zhou Wei'an turned to look at the male staff again, and also extended his hand: "Hello, may I ask who you are..."
The tall man ignored his outstretched hand and had no intention of speaking, his expression was indifferent.
Zhou Wei'an's expression froze, and he retracted his hand pretending to be natural.
Cheng Li smiled and explained: "You don't need to pay attention to him. He is just a colleague who ensures that I can carry out my work smoothly. He is not responsible for immigration matters and is only responsible for handling unexpected situations."
"Unexpected situation?"
Cheng Li’s smile remained unchanged: “When Immigration Bureau personnel visit, sometimes they encounter immigrants who are overly excited and show strong confrontational emotions. There are many similar things. Later, when Immigration Bureau visits, they will send a superpower.
Bodyguards follow the staff to prevent the situation from escalating."
Is this person a superpower?
Zhou Wei'an subconsciously took a step back, a little scared.
Although it is not uncommon for superpowers to be found in all aspects of society, ordinary people do not often come into contact with superpowers in their daily lives.
Even with the management of the Super Power Bureau, the vast majority of super people abide by the law and integrate into society, but because of their extraordinary power, accidents can easily occur if they are not careful.
There are often similar news reports about a person with superpowers who failed to control his strength while running and accidentally hit a passerby. The passerby spiraled into the sky and ended up in the hospital for three months. The person with superpowers was fully responsible.
Supers are no different from ordinary people online. Some people will also open social media to share their lives, especially those players in the super league. Many of them have fans.
But once they come into close contact with superpowers in life, many ordinary people will subconsciously be wary of them. This is an instinct to stay away from danger.
Zhou Jing was too lazy to look at Zhou Wei'an, but he was interested in this bodyguard.
Not counting the world of alien beasts, the only superpower he has come into contact with in his life is Li Xiaoyin. Naturally awakened people like her are more valued and are unlikely to take such a low-level position.
Powerful superpowers generally don't choose this kind of low-level job. Those who are willing to do this kind of thing are either novices with no future, or official people who follow orders.
'This person shouldn't be too strong. He is probably a super soldier from the military or security department who has been strengthened by genetic medicine...'
Zhou Jing secretly speculated.
Speaking of which, Li Xiaoyin gave Xu Lingyun the quota to use genetic medicine. I don’t know what the situation is now... I guess she didn’t drink him to death, right?
At this time, Cheng Li took out a special tablet device and asked with a formulaic smile:
"Mr. Zhou Jing, if you have no problem, then let's start our visit?"
"good."
The group of people came to the living room and sat down at the dining table.
Cheng Li put the device on the table, fiddled with it a few times, turned on the video function, then took out a thick stack of information from her bag, and said with a smile:
"I will ask you some relevant questions, and I hope you will answer them truthfully... But before we officially start, I need to confirm with you one last time. Are you sure you are voluntary?"
After the words fell, Zhou Wei'an, the eldest brother and the second brother all looked at Zhou Jing, slightly nervous.
"I am." Zhou Jing answered calmly without squinting.
Several people's expressions relaxed.
"Okay, got it."
Cheng Li kept smiling and pretended not to see the unusual expressions of the other people.
Over the years of working in the Immigration Bureau, she has met various families. She has no trouble in her heart and only cares about whether there will be any problems with her work.
Just go through the formalities and don't care about the rest.
She cleared her throat and started to answer questions according to the procedure. She asked questions one by one according to the script, covering various aspects. Sometimes she asked about something in Zhou Jing's childhood, and sometimes she asked him about his views on society.
Zhou Jing's answers were as short as possible, and he only said them in pleasant ways, which was quite politically correct.
This assessment is divided into two aspects. One is to conduct psychological analysis of the immigrant target, and the other is to evaluate the immigrant's value and ability, which is equivalent to an interview.
He had no intention of pretending to be crazy, nor did he intend to show anything in this kind of interview. He would respond normally and just go through the motions.
After asking several questions, Cheng Li flipped through the information in her hand and suddenly said: "You have a friend named Li Xiaoyin, right?"
"……What's wrong?"
Zhou Jing's casual eyes suddenly became sharp.
The other party had his own file, which must have written about his friendship. He was not surprised that the other party knew that he knew Li Xiaoyin, but he was surprised why he suddenly mentioned it.
At this time, the tall male bodyguard who had been silent all this time suddenly had goosebumps on his skin. He suddenly became alert and stared at Zhou Jing closely. He slowly pressed his palms on the swing stick at his waist.
Zhou Jing glanced at him, and looked at him in mid-air before looking away.
Cheng Li was completely unaware of the instant exchange between the two and continued to ask questions according to the procedure.
To be continued...
