First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

Lu Ding spoke up, saying, ”Don’t worry, I’ll handle these problems.”

”As for Zhang Wei and the others, those unlucky brats, they’re just asking for a beating. A few more rounds will straighten them out.”

”Don’t take it to heart either. They won’t do anything too outrageous. Since they’re all under my direct command, then putting it bluntly, if they commit an unforgivable mistake, I’ll be the first to drag them to Hanjing for investigation, sentencing, and punishment!”

”Putting it mildly, if they really do something absurd, I won’t tolerate them. If they can’t even figure out whose bowl they’re eating from, I have my own family punishment!”

Moreover, with Lu Ding’s methods, even if he went to the First Circle, it wasn’t like he couldn’t come back. As long as he could find a way to maintain contact, the moment something happened in Great Han, he could whoosh back to the Second Circle using Celestial Shift.

So he wasn’t that worried that once he left, these beasts would run rampant in the Second Circle.

Besides.

It was still early.

Secretary Qiu nodded. He really had gotten a bit worked up just now.”Then you go ahead and get busy. Perfect timing, the engineering team sent by Great Han has arrived. They’ll need to launch satellites and whatnot later. I have things to do as well, but I think this satellite won’t last long.”

”After all, this isn’t Great Han. They have no reason to hold back against us. After we launch it, it won’t be long before someone destroys it.”

”But it doesn’t matter. I anticipated this outcome, so I had them prepare plenty. Anyway, this stuff isn’t very expensive.”

Lu Ding’s interest was piqued. ”Then I’ll bring Lei Xiao to take a look later.”

”Alright.”

Secretary Qiu said, then turned to attend to his own matters.

Lu Ding also walked out and found Lei Xiao, who was playing a single-player game.

But when he got outside.

Lei Xiao was looking for something.

Lu Ding asked, ”What are you looking for?”

Lei Xiao spoke with a serious face, saying something completely ridiculous, ”I’m looking for a knife to chop off these damn claws of mine. Why am I! So! Freaking! Bad! At this?!”

”I can’t even figure out a single-player game!!!”

”I’m so mad!!!”

Lu Ding: ”Hahahahahahahaha......”

”Alright, alright. Maybe your talent just isn’t in gaming. We’re launching a satellite later. Want to come check it out? We can talk about the Thunder Roar Hall too.”

When Lei Xiao heard this, she stopped searching for a knife and very carefully put her phone away. ”Brother Lu, once the satellite launches, will there be signal? Then I can scroll videos and contact my uncle and the others?”

Lu Ding shook his head. ”You sure know how to dream. Even after launching, it needs debugging, and ground base stations need to be built and all that. And even if everything’s set up, it’s impossible for you to contact the Third Circle from the Second Circle.”

”If you ask me, just stop worrying. When the time comes, I’ll take you back to visit directly. But you need to think hard about how to explain to your parents that you went from male to female.”

Lei Xiao: ”.......”

That shut her up completely.

Yeah.

How do you explain going from male to female?

Seeing that she’d finally gone quiet.

Lu Ding said, ”Come on, come on, let’s go watch the satellite launch. We won’t make it in time otherwise.”

The whole way there.

Lei Xiao, for once in her life, didn’t say a single word.

Just as they arrived.

”Brother Lu~~~~!!!!”

She even dragged out the ending sound.

”How am I supposed to explain this?”

”A son becomes a daughter. My parents won’t reject me, will they?”

Lu Ding looked at the launch base ahead, where the final stage of debugging was underway, and said, ”When the time comes, I’ll go back with you to explain. There are ways. Just say you participated in a national experiment or something, that you’re a great meritorious official.”

”Have the nation endorse you. Get you a full military uniform, then pin a chest full of medals on you. Then bring a few hundred soldiers with live ammunition, drive a dozen or so military vehicles, and get a whole bunch of armed helicopters flying in formation.”

”Have your city mayor, county magistrate, and local leaders all trail behind. Max out the spectacle, and it should work.”

Hearing Lu Ding’s description.

Lei Xiao couldn’t help but start fantasizing.

Damn it!

If she really went home like that!

Several people in the village would probably hang themselves!?

Her parents would have so much face!

Completely returning with their heads held high!!

Creating a sensation across the county, across the city!!!

Just thinking about that magnificent scene made Lei Xiao unbearably excited!

What extraordinary phenomena, what demonic beasts, what dragons, this and that - none of them could compare to the scene Lu Ding described.

Because Lei Xiao’s parents were just ordinary people. When they encountered supernatural power and saw those things, they would only feel fear mixed in.

But if the nation endorsed it and created that kind of commotion to send her home, then Lei Xiao’s parents, who had bent their backs their whole lives, would probably straighten up completely!!!

When that time came, they probably wouldn’t even care whether she was male or female. As long as she was still their own child, that would be enough!!!!

”Brother... Brother Lu, really?”

Lu Ding looked at her. ”Would I joke around with you?”

”But you need to earn more merit. Otherwise, this won’t be easy to arrange. You can’t have a chest full of medals that are all fake, face-saving junk, right?”

Lei Xiao’s expression stiffened. The next moment, she gradually turned serious. ”Brother Lu, from now on, give me the most dangerous places!”

”Even if it’s only me!”

”As long as I can earn merit, you could make me a mushroom bomb close-range blast observation recorder, and I’d do it without hesitation!”

She wanted to earn merit so badly. She was desperate to earn merit!

She wanted to serve the nation. She wanted to return home in glory. She wanted armed helicopters clearing the way. She wanted hundreds of armed soldiers accompanying her!!!

Lu Ding laughed. ”There will be opportunities. But you need to be more obedient. Stop always going after your own people.”

Hearing this, Lei Xiao went stomping over to Secretary Qiu, who was busy working.

Her expression was grave.

She even startled Secretary Qiu. What did this unlucky brat want to do? She wouldn’t dare make a move on him in front of Lu Ding, would she? He couldn’t beat her.

As it turned out.

Lei Xiao suddenly bowed at a perfect ninety degrees and said very loudly, ”I’m sorry! Secretary Qiu!!!”

”I’m young and immature. Please don’t stoop to arguing with me!”

”This is my apology gift. Please accept it.”

Lei Xiao produced a jade box, respectfully presenting it to Secretary Qiu with both hands.

Secretary Qiu was dumbfounded.

He looked at Lu Ding with eyes full of confusion and shock.

You really have a way with her!!!

She got her straightened out with just a few moves.

But this is her.......

Lu Ding tilted his head, signaling for him to accept.

Secretary Qiu’s eyes immediately turned exasperated. What did he take him for? Accepting gifts? ”We’re all one family, all one family. When you’re away from home, everyone helps each other out. It’s fine, it’s fine. I appreciate the gesture, but I can’t accept your gift......”

Before he finished speaking.

Lei Xiao lifted her head. Lightning slowly flickered in her eyes, crackling as she stared at Secretary Qiu.

Secretary Qiu: ”I’ll accept it. I’ll accept it.”

This unlucky brat. Straightened out, but not completely. Half-straightened.

Seeing Secretary Qiu accept it, Lei Xiao finally revealed a smile. ”I’m sorry, Secretary Qiu. I’ll never speak to you like that again.”
