About a month ago, Miss Kwai, who was already working for the Yoto Metropolitan Police Department, was called to the office of the Ministry of General Affairs. She was informed that there was an important task assigned to her. Miss Kwai, who hadn’t been assigned any key tasks, eagerly rushed to the office in excitement.
Her boss politely invited her to sit down, then put a document on the table. He tapped the document lightly with his finger but didn’t open it. He instead just explained.
“A very important foreign guest will visit Yoto on August 2nd, and you will be his security advisor.”
“That’s fine, but why am I selected?” Kwai was slightly taken aback and asked in confusion.
Shouldn’t security advisors be selected from the Intelligence Department? Why am I chosen with just a police background?
“…I don’t know. This is a document issued directly from the above. Both the Cabinet Intelligence Research Office and the Ministry of Defense signed the document,” The boss touched his nose and said.
“Can you show me the mission book? I need more details in order to better complete the task.”
The expression on the boss’s face was a little subtle, he coughed, put the file in the drawer, and looked away while he continued.
“No, the task itself is not very difficult. I believe that Miss Kwai’s strength is more than sufficient without more details. What you need to do is be responsible for solving some legal problems that the foreign guest may encounter during his stay here. People from the Self-Defense Forces and the Intelligence Department will be responsible.”
“I understand, I promise to complete the task!”
Although she wondered why he couldn’t show her the mission log, Miss Kwai still accepted this mission with confidence.
It was just that for some strange reason, the old boss, who had always been aggressive towards his subordinates at work, was afraid to look her in the eyes…
Perhaps it was her Illusion?
In any case, it was the first big task in her career. If she could complete this task to perfection, it would definitely be a highlight on her resume. With 120% enthusiasm, Miss Kwai also studied a month of Mandarin. Because she heard that the foreign guest she was in charge of spoke Mandarin, she thought it must be a high-level foreign guest that was coming here to participate in the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.
However, Miss Kwai never expected that when she arrived at the hotel where the foreign guest stayed, with anxiety and excitement, that she’d meet someone she didn’t want to see.
No, he should be called the devil!
“I guess you are hesitant about whether or not you should run away,” Jiang Chen looked at the shaking Kwai in the hallway, as her slender shoulders trembled. Jiang Chen touched his chin as his lips curved, “But I guess you will choose to stay.”
“I’m a police constable now…” Miss Kwai said nervously, “Please be respectful. I can forget the things that happened before but from now on…”
Because she was too nervous, she accidentally bit her tongue.
Jiang Chen laughed as he looked at the lady with red cheeks. He walked to the sofa and sat down, turned on the TV, and asked casually while changing the channel.
“Police constable? What is that?”
“A rank…” The corner of her lips raised, as she was obviously quite proud.
She indeed could be proud.
In Nippon, women did not have an advantage in the workplace. She graduated from the police academy less than two years ago and was able to go from the lowest rank, an inspector, to a constable before she was twenty-four. Even if this was a drama, her promotion path was quite rare.
“Oh,” Jiang Chen nodded thoughtfully and laughed, “It seems that they are taking good care of you.”
“Taking care?” Kwai was slightly taken aback.
She didn’t realize that she was promoted so quickly in the workplace because of someone’s work.
“Let’s not talk about this,” Jiang Chen smiled and turned off the TV that hadn’t been on for too long, “Since there is still time before nightfall, we might as well do something interesting.”
“What do you want to do?” There was a noticeable panic in her eyes and Kwai subconsciously took half a step back. However, when she saw the smirk on Jiang Chen’s face, she was agitated. She worked up her courage and stared back at Jiang Chen. In a threatening tone, she said, “Even if you have diplomatic immunity, if news spreads that you’ve done something to a police officer, I’m afraid you can’t get out of it.”
The more powerful, the more they cared about their reputation.
Kwai was certain that Jiang Chen would definitely make the right choice in front of personal and group reputation. However, when she saw his eyes, Jiang Chen shattered her self-confidence with only three words.
“Are you sure?”
Are you sure?
Kwai started to panic.
Even she herself didn’t know why she started to question herself.
“…I will tell my boss that I’ll give up this mission.”
Her glistening teeth clenched tightly together, and she bowed deeply. Kwai left this sentence and ran to the entrance. However, when she reached for the doorknob, she realized that she couldn’t open the door.
“I told you to come in,” Jiang Chen shrugged, stood up, and said slowly, “But I never told you to leave.”
Kwai hurriedly took out her phone as she saw Jiang Chen walk towards her.
“Don’t worry, you have one minute to call now. I’ll allow you to ask anyone for help,” Jiang Chen said with a smirk, “By the way, if you call the police or call your colleague or boss, I promise you it won’t work. If you call your family, I will let you go. Everything that happened before will be wiped clean, and I will promise you a reasonable request.”
The hand that held onto her phone trembled, and Kwai shuddered as she watched Jiang Chen approach her. She moved back again and again before her back was against the door.
“I still have a bottom line. I never force anyone to do anything.” Jiang Chen walked to her and brushed a strand of her hair behind her ear. As he watched her panic like a squirrel, shrunken in the corner, he slowly took away the phone she was holding, then whispered into her ear while blowing on her soft earlobe, “It turns out you are still looking forward to it, aren’t you?”
Kwai said in a shaky voice.
“You, you devil…”
“Devil? I don’t think so.” Jiang Chen shrugged, dropped the smartphone in his hand on the cabinet at the entrance, and glanced at her with interest. He then said, “In fact, there is a very simple way to verify my reasoning.”
“Wh…what reasoning?”
“The reasoning that you are actually expecting me to do something to you.”
Kwai’s breathing was choppy as she squeezed these words from between her teeth.
“…That is impossible.”
“Don’t deny it right away.” Jiang Chen looked at the stubborn and dazed look that interchanged on her face. Then, he raised her right hand and showed it to her with the same smirk, “Let me teach you what to do. You can go to the bathroom and verify it yourself.”
