Chapter 792: Strongest Talent

It had been a while since she went to the department’s secret underground base.

Now familiar with the way, Gu Qingjiu could find the exit even with a blindfold over her eyes.

When Gu Qingjiu arrived at the secret base, Lu Ziyang was there waiting for her.

Lu Ziyang hadn’t shown much change, still smartly dressed in a suit and looking as affable as ever.

It made one feel unwary of him.

Perhaps because of the incident three years ago, Lu Ziyang felt guilty towards Gu Qingjiu. All these years, he had been lax in his supervision of Gu Qingjiu.

So much so it didn’t comply with the secret base’s regulations.

“You’re here.”

Lu Ziyang revealed a gentle smile at Gu Qingjiu, who nodded in return.

No idea if it was an illusion, Lu Ziyang felt that Gu Qingjiu appeared more vibrant than before, where she seemed to exude a hint of gloominess that wouldn’t go away.

It was like she was radiating with a brand new glow.

“Is there a mission?”

Gu Qingjiu asked in passing because it had been a few years since she went on a mission.

Lu Ziyang shook his head with a smile. “Of course not. It’s not the time for that yet. But, it’s time for me to tell you certain things.

“Mm?”

Gu Qingjiu was baffled to hear this.

What would he be telling her at a time like this?

Unexpectedly, Lu Ziyang retrieved a stack of documents from his briefcase. The first piece of paper was Gu Qingjiu’s body checkup information.

Many data on that document indicated that Gu Qingjiu’s body stats were similar to an ordinary person’s.

After training, she had strengthened her body. But there was an abrupt question mark in a region near Gu Qingjiu’s brain.

As though they had questions about Gu Qingjiu in this aspect.

“I’ve wanted to tell you about something. What happened three years ago wasn’t a mission but a test. Hence, I’m very sorry.”

It was rare for Lu Ziyang to mention this matter again.

Gu Qingjiu shook her head. “No need to mind that.”

“I’m apologizing to you because that wasn’t the department’s usual protocol. We hadn’t wanted you to go on a mission so quickly. I believe you would have sensed it over these three years, after having undergone special training. It’s not for you to go on missions, but because we finally confirmed something during that test.”

Lu Ziyang’s tone sounded very solemn, as though he was about to reveal some grand secret.

Gu Qingjiu pricked up her ears and listened attentively.

“Qingjiu, perhaps you’ve always thought that back then, when we chose you to enter our department, it was because of your extraordinary talent in shooting, right?”

Gu Qingjiu creased her brows. “Isn’t that the case?”

It was undeniable that she had extraordinary talent when it came to shooting, and according to Elder Gong, even Yin Ruoyi couldn’t compare to her in certain aspects.

“No. The phrase ‘shooting talent’ is too general and completely restricts your talent. Your talent is not simply in target shooting. It’s in...” He pointed at his head and said, “The brain!”

“Brain?”

It was Gu Qingjiu’s first time hearing her talent being described in such a way.

Of course, a strong talent in shooting meant it had something to do with the brain. But what Lu Ziyang was trying to convey wasn’t this.

Gu Qingjiu quietly waited for Lu Ziyang’s explanation without raising any questions.
