Chapter 1208: Connections

Colonel Lin sighed in relief. To his credit, the retard comment was not meant for him or Jiang Yao.
However, his expression darkened upon hearing Lu Xingzhi’s statements. “Those people more or less have some flaws, but everyone has their own occupational quirks. Those quirks allowed people to determine the characteristics of their jobs. There’s nothing wrong with that!”
“Also, in my plan, the memory test is after the marksmanship test. Why was it adjusted to the second half of the second round instead of going according to the original plane?” Lu Xingzhi’s face was even darker than Colonel Lin’s.
“That’s a crazy arrangement!”
Colonel Lin growled, “After the marksmanship test, you’re sending them to the memory test, and you even dug so many holes for them. Honest people are scratching their ears and heads anxiously, aren’t they?”
The chief and the bureau chief had agreed to switch the order of the tests. They were worried that Jiang Yao would treat the test as a particularly severe and rigorous matter once the marksmanship test was over. They did not doubt the test was full of traps. Therefore, after discussing it, they decide to switch the first half and second half of the second round.
After returning from the coffee house, Jiang Yao would begin to understand the essence of that test if she were to pass the first round. It was to lie with her eyes wide open—every ten sentences would have five genuine sentences and five fake ones.
The assessment’s difficulty was decreased because both the bureau chief and Colonel Lin agreed that Lu Xingzhi’s tests were slightly abnormal.
“How can she accept that mission as a spy if she lacks her own judgment?”
“If she believes what other people say, lacks her own thoughts and the ability to think independently, can’t make objective judgments and analysis, you might as well tell her to go home. How could you describe her as a soldier?”
Lu Xingzhi snorted and sat back in his chair with a face full of contempt. “This person has to have some connections to someone on the force. Otherwise, you guys won’t be so considerate of her.”
The corner of Colonel Lin’s mouth twitched slightly. Of course, she was related to someone, and that someone was powerful and a promising talent.
“So, after you read that report, you don’t have the slightest bit of praise or appreciation for your partner?”
Colonel Lin thought, ‘Lu Xingzhi, if your wife finds out that you’re like this, she will definitely cry!’
Fortunately, Lu Xingzhi did not immediately reject his new partner. His eyes paused on the report for a few seconds before he said, “It’s not like there are no redeeming features. Her marksmanship was barely passable. Her performance at the coffee shop was not bad. She was very vigilant and did not let anyone get any information from her. She has good eyesight. She also knows how to observe the seemingly unimportant people around her and recognize the two police officers in the Police Crime Squad. But her close combat skills are not satisfactory.”
“That’s all?”
Colonel Lin frowned. “If you’re so dissatisfied, why don’t I help you apply for a new one?”
“No need, there’s no time. If she’s here, it means that someone else thinks she’s outstanding. If we get another person, they might not be as skillful as her.” Then, Lu Xingzhi sighed regretfully. “If I were to make arrangements for those people in the coffee shop, she might not be able to notice anything even if I gave her half an hour.”
Even though he said that, Lu Xingzhi was still quite satisfied. His future partner could see so many flaws in just five minutes; it seemed that she was not entirely brainless.
