I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything-Chapter 397 - 397 Meet my girlfriend
397 Meet my girlfriend
“What are you doing? Are alright?” Sofia asked with concern. “Have you lost it already?”
Fein looked at Sofia with a straight face and replied. “This is the password to enter the base. A secret, and can also be called a cryptic message. And it also changes every day.”
Hearing him say this, Sofia can’t help but feel amazed by the Ranger’s Eye base security. Even in their mansion, they didn’t do things like secret codes. Though they have a secret library. Now, she became more and more curious. She looked expectantly at the entrance and waited. “So it would open after you said the right password?”
“Yeah, when I started to work, I was really surprised. And I have even memorized freaking two hundred quotes just for this.” Fein subconsciously remembered the time when he was still a rookie. A nostalgic smile appeared on his face.
DUG!
Suddenly, two small holes emerged from the hole. Then a pair of eyes peeked from it and looked at Fein and Sofia.
‘So it’s like this...’ Sofia looked at the pair of eyes and she felt as if she was being stared at by a hawk.
“Well, it’s you.” A mellow voice sounded. Then the wall parted in two, which revealed a man with a small figure. The man has a long white beard, and he wore a red hat. Which covered his white hair.
Sofia glanced at the man who had the height of a twelve years old boy but had the face of an old man. This sense of contradiction made her dizzy. ‘Isn’t this basically the dwarf in the legend?’
.....
“Who’s currently in the office?” Fein asked and pulled Sofia with his hand gently. Then walked towards the entrance slowly.
“Michael, Kidd, and Captain.” The man responded without emotion on his face. But deep inside, he felt suffocated as he was in the same space as an S-rank degu user. So he kept reminding himself in his mind and projected a calm demeanor. ‘Don’t think too much. Do less, talk less.”
After all, he didn’t have much interaction with Fein and, as he was only responsible for opening the entrance and making repairing crude weapons. What’s more, he was just newly transferred into his role.
Fritz had heard Fein’s name from the mouths of his fellow workers. Although Fein didn’t publicize his promotion at first. But after so long, he didn’t care anymore and let Gregory reveal it to the staff and workers of Ranger’s Eye. Not to mention, Fein’s information was all recorded from the documents where the workers could view it with a simple search. The document listed all of Fein’s achievements, contributions, and profile since he started as an investigator.
Of course, the workers aren’t allowed to disclose the information, as only members of the branch could have access to it.
“Well, we’ll go first. Keep up the good work!” Fein smiled and led Sofia straight to the office.
Seeing the Fein’s back gradually fade. Fritz rubbed his sweaty back and looked at his slightly trembling hand. He felt the pressure just by standing in the same space with Fein. Not only that, but the girl beside Fein also gives him a weird sense of danger. ‘What a terrible feeling. I really don’t want to work as a gatekeeper anymore.’
...
Inside the Ranger’s Eyes captain’s office. Gregory puff a cloud of smoke from his tobacco as he lay in his chair with a rare bliss on his face. Slump down shoulders, laid-back demeanor, and the faint smile on his face clearly expressed his current emotion.
The past few days were his most relaxed times during this year. The paper works that he does every day. He didn’t know why, but the quantity lessened significantly. He only need to sign two to three and at worst sign five to ten, which wasn’t really worth mentioning from the previous mountain of papers on his desk.
Gregory looked at his two subordinates. Michael and Kidd stood quietly at the window with bored expressions on their faces.
“Did you notice? The missions these past weeks range from F to D...” Kidd gazed past the window and stared at the azure sky. He saw a group of birds form a triangle formation as they fly freely under the thick white clouds. ‘Floating clouds, and birds... Isn’t this a sign of freedom?’
Hearing Kidd’s Question and seeing him stared at the clouds, and the bird with an envious expression made Michael confused. “The fuck? Are you actually envious of the clouds and the bird in the sky?”
Gregory, who heard Michael’s question, almost couldn’t believe his ears. ‘What the fuck are these kids talking about? Are they so bored that they would have such silly topics?’
“You don’t understand, do you?” Kidd chuckled and gazed at the clouds with dreamlike eyes. “The clouds just float freely in the sky, cast a shadow to the whole world... Yet the clouds are still free and lack constraint. I envy clouds so much because they didn’t need to do anything but just float.
A question mark appeared on Michael and Gregory’s faces. f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m
“What the hell are you even saying? Are you that lazy already to even envy the clouds!?” Gregory’s mood was ruined and had the impulse to punch Kidd in the face.
“I think the guy has lost it already.” Michael quickly distances himself from Kidd. “Don’t come close to me. I don’t want to get infected with your weird ideas.”
“The two of you just don’t understand me. I bet that if Fein and Anthony are here, they would surely understand me.” A grin formed on Kidd’s mouth.
BANG!
Suddenly, the door of the office opened and collided with the wall. Gregory, Michael, and Kidd were startled and looked at the figures that appeared.
Fein looked at the three guys in front of him and asked. “Did someone mention my name?” 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎
“Fein, you’re here...” Michael glanced at his friend who had just arrived, and couldn’t help but notice the beautiful girl beside him. ‘Who’s this? Another sister of his or distant relative?’
Just in time, Michael heard Kidd beside him ask in his mind. Gregory sat straight with his ears perked up.
“Fein, who’s that beauty beside you? Your girlfriend?” Kidd asked aloud.
“Well, meet my girlfriend! Sofia Amborico Del Rosario Vladimir.” Fein smirked.
‘Huh? He memorized my name?’ Sofia looked at Fein with surprise.
