Most Western restaurants don't have private rooms, they have booths at most, but Yuebanwan Restaurant has private rooms, and they are very spacious and tastefully decorated.
Xu Qian was brought to the door of a box by the waiter. Two men in suits stood on both sides of the box door. The waiter was startled by the fight.
"Mr. Xu, your steak will be served soon. Let's get acquainted first."
Han Qianqian came directly from the bureau and had no time to change clothes. She was wearing a women's suit. Xu Qian quickly noticed that there was a floral "三" embroidered on her chest.
"Han Qianqian, deputy director of the Third Division of the Special Branch." Han Qianqian stretched out her right hand.
Xu Qian doesn't have the habit of shaking hands, and the character of a high school student doesn't need to shake hands.
"You are Director Han, you are quite young."
Han Qianqian didn't feel any embarrassment. She took back her hand and said with a smile, "Isn't Mr. Xu younger?"
After Xu Qian took his seat, Han Qianqian took the initiative to introduce herself before Xu Qian asked, "I think you have never heard of the Special Branch, and you don't know why I came to you."
Xu Qian nodded, "Before the food is served, you can give a brief explanation."
"Mr. Xu is really different." Han Qianqian has a good impression of Xu Qian's character. She especially doesn't like the kind of beating around the bush or pretending to be flattering. Xu Qian looks like a harmless high school student, plus there is a She said that her straight-forward personality made her feel that her trip to Nanhai would not be in vain.
"The Special Bureau, the full name is the Special Incident Handling Bureau, is a secret agency directly under the central government. I am the deputy director of the Third Branch. Our Third Branch is responsible for handling some special cases that cannot be handled by the police or are inappropriate to handle. Incident." Han Qianqian spoke of the Special Affairs Bureau, both in her tone and expression, with an unquestionable reverence.
"It sounds like the Special Branch is pretty powerful, but what is a special event? A supernatural event?"
"First of all, you have to tell me, are you a martial artist?"
Xu Qian shook his head and said, "I don't know. It is said that martial arts cultivators need to be certified by the Martial Arts Association. I don't have this certification."
Han Qianqian leaned back easily: "The certification of the Martial Arts Association is only for low-level martial arts practitioners. It is to meet the needs of the vast number of martial arts enthusiasts among the people and for better management. Real martial arts Most of the high-level martial arts cultivators look down upon this martial arts association, let alone go for this certification, and the martial arts association is not qualified to certify martial arts cultivators above the martial arts sect."
Xu Qian felt that today's meal was the right one. He was worried about where to learn these common sense things. He didn't know anyone in the circle. The books and the Internet only mentioned the martial arts association, about high-level martial arts. He couldn't find out anything at all.
"So, your special department has something to do with these high-level martial arts cultivators?"
Han Qianqian nodded slightly, "On the surface, the Martial Arts Association is a private voluntary organization. In fact, it is a subordinate agency established and managed by our Special Branch Bureau 5. Low-level martial arts practitioners across the country need to register with the Martial Arts Association, while high-level martial arts practitioners need to register with the Martial Arts Association. Repairs are registered and managed directly by our Special Branch Bureau, and it is the Fifth Branch that handles the specific procedures."
Xu Qian became interested. He heard Fatty say that high-level martial arts were certified by another organization, but he didn't know what organization it was. It hadn't even been 24 hours, and someone came to give him a class to popularize knowledge.
"All high-level martial arts cultivators across the country need to register with your five offices?"
"Well, this is what our Special Branch requires. You should know that high-level martial arts practitioners are like supermen to society. If we cannot grasp the situation of these people, the entire society will be at unknown risks." Han Qianqian suddenly After a pause, "However, there are also some martial arts cultivators who have not registered for various reasons, but as long as we find them, we will persuade them to complete the registration procedures."
"What if the other party is unwilling and even violently confronts me?"
Han Qianqian smiled slightly, but this smile was somewhat mysterious, "Then we will continue to persuade until the other party completes the registration."
Of course Xu Qian would not foolishly think that the Special Branch would always rely on words to persuade like Tang Seng. Just now he was unwilling to accept an invitation from a stranger. This was just a normal and reasonable refusal. The two of them must directly After breaking into his house and facing a task that must be completed, why would he always be polite and win by talking to you?
Xu Qian had already seen the so-called "continuous persuasion" in the other party's mysterious smile.
"Then can I think that if I don't speak calmly, Director Han will continue to persuade me after a while?"
"Mr. Xu is joking. That's not the purpose of my coming today. Besides, helping you complete the registration is all done by the fifth office. I don't have free time to get worse."
At this time, the box door opened, and the dining car filled with exquisite dishes entered the box.
Xu Qian watched with satisfaction as the waiter brought the dishes to the table.
Prime beef tenderloin with 5A grade foie gras in oil
Top quality caviar seafood platter
The waiter announced the name of the dish, and Xu Qian's eyes lit up.
Han Qianqian was naturally happy that Xu Qian was interested in food, "I don't know what you like to eat, so I ordered them blindly. These two are both appetizers. Which one do you like?"
Xu Qian has never been to Yuebanwan, and it’s not like he has never eaten Western food. He has also learned about the details of formal Western food from books, so he is not unclear about what appetizers are, and he will not make a fuss about eating Chinese food together. Joke about dishes on the table.
"Then I'll eat this." He pointed to the seafood platter, and then said a little embarrassedly: "Director Han, look, I have a big appetite, can you ask the kitchen to make another one of yours?" Then he pointed to the plate of beef tenderloin with foie gras.
Even though Han Qianqian had seen many scenes, she had never encountered this kind of thing. However, she remained calm and did not show any strange expression, nor did she explain to Xu Qian that after finishing this whole set of Western food, the portion was still very sufficient. Instead, I asked the waiter directly to order another beef tenderloin and foie gras.
There was a crisp sound, the sound of tableware falling to the ground.
"I'm sorry, could you please help me change a set of tableware?" Xu Qian picked up a table knife from the ground, then handed the entire set of tableware to the waiter with a smile.
The waiter took the tableware doubtfully, nodded instinctively and put it on the dining cart.
"And this cup." Xu Qian also handed the drinking cup to the waiter.
Watching the waiter leave, Xu Qian turned his head and smiled silly at Han Qianqian as if he had never done anything strange.
"To be so cautious, you are really not a simple person!" How could Han Qianqian not see that Xu Qian had changed all the tableware and water glasses. Wasn't it because he was worried about poisoning himself before he arrived? She also There was no telling the truth. In fact, Xu Qian did it so obviously, so naturally he wasn't afraid of her seeing it.
Han Qianqian picked up the water bottle, added some water to her own glass and took a sip, saying that the water was safe and she drank it all to save the kid from having to change the water too.
"Let's not be so open to each other. I'm a few years older than you. Just call me Sister Qianqian. I'll just call you by your name, okay?"
Xu Qian was worried that the tableware was poisonous, but he also wanted to see the other party's reaction. Han Qianqian's behavior made him very fond of it. Hearing Han Qianqian say this, he also understood that it meant to close the distance.
"Okay, I'm a high school student and I haven't seen many officials. I feel uncomfortable calling you Director Han all the time. However, I'll call you by your name. Calling you sister feels a bit too high." Xu Qian himself knew what he was doing. Although he didn't know his true age, judging from the environment and circumstances in which he woke up, he was definitely not a teenager on the surface. It doesn't matter if he pretends to be a high school student in normal times, but it's still a little hard for him to accept a girl in her twenties as his sister.
Han Qianqian was a little surprised. She knew that Xu Qian must have a secret, but she had never doubted her age. It was obvious that she was under twenty years old. It was not normal for someone to call her sister. What? Unexpectedly, this boy was unwilling.
At this time, the waiter came in again and brought Xu Qian new tableware and water glasses. Xu Qian started eating without saying a word.
