"You really want to go out?"
Chen Sheng stirred the coffee cup with a spoon. Although he didn't dislike the taste of coffee, he didn't appreciate it too much.
Opposite Chen Sheng, Gurmei stared closely at Chen Sheng's stirring of coffee.
He didn't say much, just nodded silently, hoping that the man in front of him could let him go.
"Those brothers and sisters have business to do, so don't disturb them."
Chen Sheng looked at Gu Mei and smiled slightly, then picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.
Well, it seems that adding a cube of sugar would be more appropriate.
I thought so in my heart.
The coffee spoon in Chen Sheng's hand gently tapped the coffee saucer placed aside, and a piece of sugar cube jumped into the coffee cup.
Not a single splash, full marks.
This scene fell in Gulme's eyes, making him breathe quickly and subconsciously.
But recalling what this man had just said, he became a little anxious.
"I'm not going to disturb them!"
"I'm going to the lair and do what I have to do!"
Gurmei slapped the table seriously and stood up, his childish voice full of determination.
This considerable commotion did not cause any ripples in the surrounding area.
On this windy and snowy night, there were no other customers in the shop, only a coffee shop owner watching the TV on the wall.
The boss ignored Chen Sheng's movements. He was minding his own business while playing with his mobile phone and glancing at the TV hanging on the wall with his peripheral vision, without moving his eyes at all.
Chen Sheng looked at Gurmei's firm gaze, and then turned his gaze to his hand, looking at the street scene separated by only a glass window.
Even in the dark night, you can still see this not-so-prosperous town, wrapped tightly in white snow.
There was not a single pedestrian on the street.
The snowflakes were swept by the strong wind, covering most of the view outside the window. Only the orange light of the street lamp not far away could leave a trace through the gaps in the snowflakes.
"What will you do if you go out alone in this weather?"
"The lair is deep in the mountains."
"What to do? What can you do?"
Chen Sheng's tone was very calm, but he indirectly pointed out the cruel truth from a certain angle.
Gurmei followed Chen Sheng's gaze and looked out the window.
Perhaps because of the howling wind and snow, or perhaps because of the reassuring temperament of the man next to him, Gullmei's mind suddenly became clear.
Yes, just as Chen Sheng said.
If he goes out, what will happen?
Regardless of whether he can help his brothers and sisters destroy their nests, now he can't even cross the snowy sky to travel across the snow-capped mountains.
Even if he still stubbornly wants to go out and the man next to him doesn't stop him, the result will still be nothing more than a frozen corpse buried in the wind and snow.
If it weren't for the man in front of him, he wouldn't even be able to break free from the hemp rope that the woman tied to the construction site.
In fact...
He has no power at all!
Weakness is often the original sin.
Desperate to get to the lair, maybe just incompetent and furious to prove that he tried.
At this point, Gulmez fell into a long silence.
Seeing Gulmei like this, Chen Sheng was not in a hurry to say anything. This child is indeed a good prospect, but the organization that is now developing steadily is not in a hurry to directly say that it wants to recruit people.
Chen Sheng just picked up the coffee cup and tasted it. It was coffee with a piece of sugar added.
Well, the taste this time is not bad.
He showed a satisfied smile and took another sip from the coffee cup.
Gulme, on the other hand, was looking out the window in silence, with various thoughts flowing in his mind.
No power! No power! No power!
He has no power so he can't leave here, he has no power so he can't protect his loved ones, he has no power so he can't take revenge...
My mind was filled with confusion, but the environment outside was unusually quiet.
In addition to the faint sound of wind coming in through the soundproof glass, there was only the sound of the TV turned on by the bar owner not far away...
Other than that, everything is so quiet.
Even the movement of the man next to him drinking coffee made no sound at all.
Gulmei looked at Chen Sheng, and his thoughts subconsciously became calm again.
Strangely enough, this man was obviously drinking coffee for the first time, and his actions showed no trace of etiquette at all.
But somehow it gives people an elegant temperament.
After pondering, Gulme paused.
A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.
Gurmei suddenly figured out something.
"Power! Please give me power!"
Gurmei swallowed and spoke to Chen Sheng in a slow but firm tone.
Looking at the unmoved man drinking coffee in front of him, Gulme suddenly realized that he was too stupid.
Such obvious supernatural power is right in front of you.
Why is he still so entangled?
Faced with Gu Mei's words, Chen Sheng paused.
Putting down the coffee cup, he looked calmly at Gulme in front of him.
"If you blindly pursue power, you will only get lost."
"If you want to get power from me, you have to understand something first."
Chen Sheng's tone was profound.
As his mysterious and powerful aura spread out, the twelve-year-old Gulme was obviously stunned by these words.
Want to figure something out first?
Gulme was stunned for a moment, obviously being fooled by these words.
Before his tragic experience began, he was also a child who liked reading various fantasy works such as novels and movies, and he also had some imaginary knowledge of otherworldly heroes and forces.
Could it be said that this is the test for a hero before he embarks on his journey?
Do you need to look into your own heart first? !
If your heart is not strong enough, you cannot truly control the power? !
Thinking of this, Gurmei fell into deep thought.
And when he saw Gurmei sitting back down, he thought about what he needed to understand to gain power.
Although Chen Sheng didn't say anything, he couldn't stop smiling in his heart.
Only when you are truly in this position can you understand the joy of being a Riddler.
It is indeed interesting to watch others scratch their heads and think hard about the meaning of their words.
Of course, Chen Sheng was naturally not just for fun and a bit of bad taste, otherwise he would have been teasing Bai Yu into thinking more deeply every day.
His main idea was to make Gulme's joining more difficult.
As mentioned before, the organization has now officially begun to develop. When the Yongzhou Education Department is also established soon, it will develop rapidly.
He is not so short of people that he needs to rush in to bring in this good young man who is only twelve years old.
Regarding Gulme's test and training, although he wouldn't be as intense as he was with Bai Yu and the others, it would still be a little more difficult.
This is just a child.
It’s always good to grind a little more.
Thinking about it, Chen Sheng continued to pay attention to his test and training of the seven first batch members with a smile.
