Zheng Zhi replied very quickly: “P9. This is a level that many people only dream of. Some people will never be able to reach it in their entire lives. This is also the greatest benefit I can get for you as my duty. There is currently no formidable leader in the internet department. If you are willing to come, I believe that the people in the internet department will submit to you. Of course, I saw with my own eyes how you defeated an esper. It is said that he is already a world-class hacker. I also sincerely admire you.”


  Xue Xi: “.……”


  P9.

  With this level, she would be on par with Jing Fei and Zheng Zhi!

  Xue Xi’s eyes lit up. She thought for a moment and replied: “I can work online.”


  Zheng Zhi hurriedly replied to the email: “No problem. As long as you don’t violate the law, it’s fine even if you don’t want to show your face! In the special department, it is allowed to not show your face and still work!”


  Although many espers were formidable, they did not want their family members to know about it. Hence, they all worked in secret. Their personal files were kept confidential, and ordinary people would not know their identity.

  There was also such a precedent, which was why Zheng Zhi agreed so readily.

  Xue Xi replied: “Get the Internet Department to send me the information related to the esper investigation system. In the future, contact me through email.”


  Zheng Zhi: “No problem. However, can you send your identity to our boss? P9’s position is too high. It’s impossible to give it to someone who never shows up and whose identity is unkown. Don’t worry, our boss is absolutely fair. If he doesn’t want anyone to know, he will definitely not let anyone know. Even I won’t know your identity.”


  Xue Xi could not help but recall that when she attacked the special department last time, the other party also had a hacker who claimed to be X against her.

  Xue Xi did not gain any advantage from the other party.

  Could this person be the teacher?

  Xue Xi paused before sending a message to Zheng Zhi: “I’ll contact him.”


  It was a huge question whether she should confess to the teacher.

  Xue Xi closed her email and rubbed her chin as she started thinking. If she said that she was the X who wanted to invade but did not get anything, would the teacher lock her up?

  She did not know what the consequences would be, so she simply looked at Xie Yingying. When she turned around, she saw Xie Yingying weaving something with a thread.

  Xue Xi paused and asked, “What are you doing?”


  Xie Yingying moved the wool in her hands. “Knitting scarves! The weather is going to turn cold soon. Everyone is knitting scarves!”


  Xue Xi: “?”


  She did not understand. “Why should you knit scarves?”


  Xie Yingying smiled. “For my boyfriend! Li Zixia told me that she knitted a gray one and gave it to her boyfriend. Hehe~ How can I fall behind?”


  Xue Xi: “.……But do you have a boyfriend?”


  The corners of Xie Yingying’s lips twitched. “Sister Xi, can you not mention such a sad topic? Moreover, everyone is knitting a scarf. If I don’t knit one, won’t I be left out from the rest?”


  After saying that, she looked at Xue Xi and said, “Sister Xi, speaking of this, why don’t you knit one for Instructor Xiang?”


  Xue Xi: “?”


  She stared at the thread in Xie Yingying’s hand and suddenly recalled that when she met Omnipotent Boss that day, his body did not seem to be in good condition. On such a hot day, he was even wrapped in a black cloak and was coughing……

  Xue Xi blinked and said, “You’re right. What color do men like?”


  Xie Yingying: “?”


  She blinked and asked, “Sister Xi, are you going to ask Instructor Xiang about this? I’m knitting this for my father. I asked him, and he likes gray.”


  Xue Xi: “.……Oh.”


  At this moment, her phone rang again. It was actually Xiang Huai.

  She picked up the call.

  Xiang Huai’s voice sounded. “Little kid, what are you doing?”


  Xue Xi shot a glance at the thread in Xie Yingying’s hand and asked, “If you were asked to choose a scarf color, what color would you choose?”


  When Xiang Huai, who was standing at the school, heard this, he looked at the girls who were gathered in groups of two or three and smiled. Almost everyone was holding a knitted scarf.

  He whispered, “Black.”


  “Okay.”


  Xue Xi took note of the color black and asked, “Where are you?”


  “Outside your dormitory.”


  Xue Xi’s eyes lit up. “You came at the right time. Accompany me to buy some wool!”


  Xiang Huai smiled. “Okay.”


  It was the end of October and the weather was turning cold.

  If she started knitting a scarf right now and sent it out after she was done, it would coincidentally be December already. Xue Xi put down her book, changed into her shoes, and left.

  She jogged to Xiang Huai.

  Xiang Huai looked at her red face and could not help but reach out to pinch it. “Where are you going to buy it?”


  Xue Xi walked toward the door. “There are shops selling goods at the entrance of the school. Many people bought them there.”


  Xiang Huai nodded.

  As the two of them walked on the school road, Xue Xi’s face was filled with exuberance. Xiang Huai looked at her and his eyes softened.

  Just as Xue Xi was thinking about how to knit the scarf, her hand was suddenly wrapped by a warm hand.

  She paused and slowly turned around to see Xiang Huai holding her hand and looking ahead as though nothing had happened.

  Xue Xi looked at the two hands and suddenly smiled. She did not struggle.

  Ever since the two of them kissed, they rarely held hands.

  Moreover, ever since they started truly dating, her heartache had never acted up again.

  As Xue Xi thought this, she pressed a hand on her chest.

  Did the curse automatically break?……

  The two of them entered the boutique. Xue Xi asked for a black thread and chose the one with the best quality. She even let Xiang Huai touch it. “This thread is quite soft. It shouldn’t be too rough, right?”


  Xiang Huai nodded.

  When Xue Xi followed the store manager to pay, Xiang Huai stood at the door and waited.

  He originally wanted to pay, but after thinking about it, this ball of thread was only a hundred plus yuan. He would let the little kid pay. After all, this was a gift she would meticulously prepare for him.

  At this thought, his sharp eyes softened again.

  At this moment, a phone suddenly rang.

  Xiang Huai was stunned. He lowered his head and realized that the ringtone was coming from the bag Xue Xi had asked him to hold. He opened the bag and took out Xue Xi’s phone to answer the call.

  Zheng Zhi’s voice came from the other end. “Xue Xi, I get it. You said that you’re busy, so you didn’t come to the internet department to work. So you’re actually working on some light source machine? Ha, I really don’t know what you’re capable of. You actually dare to challenge this! Do you know that this light source machine was developed by a very large country overseas? China can’t compare to their technology at all! You’re wasting this time to find an excuse and not come to work, right? If you don’t want to work, just say it!”


  Xiang Huai’s eyes turned cold as he asked coldly, “What did you say?”
