Chapter 664 - Chapter 664 Chapter 664 IEG Shencheng Branch
Chapter 664: Chapter 664: IEG Shencheng Branch Chapter 664: Chapter 664: IEG Shencheng Branch Wa Zhiqi had no idea what was on Lu Mian’s mind, and if he had known, he probably would never have brought Lu Mian to the office.
Outside, a passing team member came over to call for Wa Zhiqi.
“Team Wa, stop dawdling and go to the meeting already!”
Wa Zhiqi looked at Lu Mian worriedly, casually responding to the colleague outside the room, “I’m coming, I’m coming!”
Lu Mian gave him a “friendly, absolutely not going to make trouble” look.
Only then did Wa Zhiqi go to join his colleagues, and the sound of their discussion drifted down the corridor.
“What’s the meeting about this time, any progress?”
“Must be some good news from Wang Xintong’s side.”
“Then we’d better hurry and listen in!”
aEUR”aEUR”
After Wa Zhiqi left, Lu Mian locked the door of the room from the inside.

She deftly pulled a chair out from under the desk with the tip of her toe while busy transforming her electronic watch into a projection computer.
Her fingers nonchalantly tapped the projection keyboard a few times, swiftly restoring her normal communication in a way that wouldn’t be detected.
She sent a smiling emoji to the four friends in her small group chat.
Ya Ling: [Mian bro, have you arrived?]
Sui Yuan: [Mianmian, be careful!
When are you coming back, I miss you.jpg]
Seeing Sui Yuan’s pitiful emoji, Lu Mian pictured her Little Baldy head and really wanted to give it a rub.
Softened a little, Lu Mian typed three words: [I’ll hurry.]
Yuren: [I’m free anytime on my end, just shout if you need help.]
Lu Mian sent an OK gesture.
In a group of five, four people were online, and there was one gray avatar that never changed.
The four exchanged some simple updates on their situation.
Lu Mian didn’t wait for a reply from Sikong Jian before she exited the chat interface.
Then she remembered someone deserving of sympathy and placed a call to them.
Mo Si answered almost immediately.
“Miss Lu, where are you?
When will you be back?”
Hearing his anxious voice, Lu Mian knew Mo Si hadn’t tattled and she laughed, “Did Director Qi get in touch with you?”
“NoaEUR| you think, would Lord Mo already know?
Is he disappointed in me?
Is he plotting to send me to F Continent or maybe N Pole Continent?”
“No,” Lu Mian reassured him, “He’s very busy in Jinjing.
As long as you don’t say anything, he won’t know.”
“Then you should come back soon, I feel uneasyaEUR|”
Lu Mian, tired of Mo Si’s endless grumbling, had just put away her phone and cut off her own signal when someone knocked on the door.
Wa Zhiqi, having returned, said quickly while knocking, “Lu Mian, do you have time?
Come out with us on a mission!”
Lu Mian took her time to put away her electronic watch, then went to open the door.
At the doorway, Wa Zhiqi scratched his head awkwardly, “It’s just that you’ve just arrived and we’re already asking you to be busy, but you have a good memory, and we really need that this time!”
“Let’s go.”
Without saying a second word, the girl agreed.
Wa Zhiqi wasn’t sure if his eyes were playing tricks on him, but he thought she seemed quite excited.
The two quickly went downstairs, where a low-profile, black sedan was parked at the entrance.
It was a car for office use, deliberately not marked as a police car to facilitate investigations.
A tall woman with a smile on her face stood by the car door.
Her hair was tied back in a neat ponytail, and by her looks, she was probably around twenty-eight years old.
She saw Wa Zhiqi and Lu Mian approaching and greeted them with a warm smile, “Team Wa, you’ve brought some help?
Why didn’t I see her at the meeting earlier?”
Wa Zhiqi stepped forward and took the initiative to introduce, “Doctor Wang, this is Lu Mian, she just came over today and I’ve assigned her to the logistics department.
Lu Mian, this is the team doctor, Wang Xintong.”
Lu Mian nodded, “Hello.”
“Hello.” Wang Xintong, hearing that Lu Mian was from the logistics department, only glanced at her briefly before cutting the small talk short, “Team Wa, I’ve already arranged the meeting, let’s hurry over.”
“Okay.”
As Wa Zhiqi responded, he headed towards the driver’s seat; it was natural for him to take on the responsibility of driving in the presence of two ladies.
Wang Xintong pulled him back, “Team Wa, there’s a document that needs your review on the way.”
As she said this, she glanced at Lu Mian.
Lu Mian got the message and didn’t have any particular reaction.
She simply went straight to the driver’s seat.
Adjusting the rearview mirror, the seatbelt, starting the ignitionaEUR”all in one smooth sequence.
She glanced at the navigation, which already had the destination set and the route planned.
Wa Zhiqi couldn’t help but ask worriedly, “Can you handle this?”
Lu Mian rested her left hand on the window frame and spun the steering wheel with her right hand, her movements oozing with cool confidence.
“Do you want it fast or slow?” she asked lazily.
“Definitely as fast as possible,” Wang Xintong replied first, “I have someone waiting and don’t want to keep them for too long.”
Wang Xintong didn’t understand Lu Mian’s capabilities, nor did she want to.
Based on Wa Zhiqi’s comment that Lu Mian was from logistics, she had already judged Lu Mian’s skill and status and consequently didn’t bother with pleasantries.
Lu Mian was happy to complyaEUR”she had no experience driving slowly, but driving fast was something she could do.
“Everyone, get in the car,” she said indifferently.
Wa Zhiqi originally wanted to sit in the passenger seat, thinking that a young girl who had come all this way deserved some respect, particularly since she was Mr.
Mo’s girlfriend.
However, Wang Xintong directly pulled Wa Zhiqi to the back seat and sat beside him, claiming the document was very important and needed careful verification.
Lu Mian, expressionless, shifted gears and started in third, shooting out like a bullet.
The strong sense of being pushed back made Wang Xintong drop her document, and before she could pick it up, she was startled and quickly grabbed the handle.
“Cough cough cough…” Wa Zhiqi leaned forward to check the speedometeraEUR”almost redlining it.
My goodness, she was going all-out speeding.
“Slow down, slow down…”
Lu Mian casually overtook another car, “Is this fast?
I’m just getting started…”
Wa Zhiqi: …
Wang Xintong: …
She wished she could take back what she had just said!
What was meant to be an hour’s journey, Lu Mian completed in half an hour.
If it weren’t for the constant cries of “slow down” from the two people in the back, she could have gone even faster.
When they arrived at their destination, Lu Mian looked up through the car window at the building that seemed somewhat familiar.
Huh?
IEG Shencheng Branch?
Leaned against the car door, Wang Xintong took a while to recover before finally picking up the documents, handing them over to Wa Zhiqi.
“Team Wa, here are the five locations related to the Lost Case.
Have a look through them.
Once we enter the IEG Building, we can directly ask for help with accessing records.”
Wa Zhiqi went through them carefully, “All the addresses are correct.
Doctor Wang, we owe you one this time.
Otherwise, we would still be without a lead.”
“That’s too kind of you, my family has a bit of a relationship with IEG, it’s really no trouble at all,” she replied.
“You’re being modest,” Wa Zhiqi shook his head and expressed his sincere gratitude, “To be able to get in contact with the members of IEG’s third team is not something easily done!
Looking at our entire office, no one else could manage this feat.”
Wang Xintong just smiled and didn’t refute further, but she did give some careful instructions.
“The security here is especially strict with visitors.
Once we’re inside, they will ask us to hand over all communication devices and any items deemed suspicious.
You should cooperate with them when the time comes, don’t make it difficult for the security guards.”
