Inside the Wanzhong Group Twin Towers, there are many intelligent service facilities, such as automatic office supply dispensers, self-service maintenance centers, and multi-position smart massagers.
However, the most constructive facility for License Holders is undoubtedly the smart gym.
Not only can one book a private space for free, but one can also enable privacy protection to seal off the area for "personal training" sessions.
The soundproofing in sealed mode is excellent; even if there is pig-slaughtering screaming inside, those outside will continue to sweat and work out as if nothing is happening.
Unless someone calls the company's internal emergency line.
For instance, Ye Xiaojing had just slammed someone into the wall so hard they were stuck, and she immediately dialed the emergency hotline; medical staff arrived instantly to treat the injuries.
"What? Why are you staring at me?" Ye Xiaojing put away her phone and began to loosen up her wrists and ankles.
This was her signal that she was about to brutally abuse someone.
Jiang Qian remained calm. "Don't try to pull that on a workplace rookie like me. If I need to use workers' compensation insurance, the company HR will handle it for me."
Ye Xiaojing nodded. "Not bad, the onboarding training was effective."
"It's a pity I haven't officially started working yet." Jiang Qian felt slightly regretful about this.
"You should be thankful. You'll soon discover how tedious the Security Department's work is."
Ye Xiaojing shrugged, then carelessly brushed her long, straight black hair behind her head, her toned legs stepping forward. "What's the study plan for today?"
"Shall we start by getting familiar with the work equipment?" Jiang Qian pulled out the gear he had just happily received today: a stun baton.
"The only difference between this and a regular stun baton is that the spikes at the tip can release a biological toxin that paralyzes the nerves. Once depleted, it recovers on its own if left to sit." After Ye Xiaojing explained it concisely, she mocked him without hesitation, "Only rookies like using these entry-level items."
First of all, this thing is useless against me... Jiang Qian smiled. "Can't help it, I'm just a rookie, and I haven't found a weapon that suits me yet."
"Once you reach the Second State, you will let go of your obsession with the concept of 'weapons' and become more accustomed to using your own body."
"Like a mantis's twin blades?"
"Exactly, my twin blades." Ye Xiaojing spread her arms, assuming a combat stance.
"Let's get this straight, no hitting the head today!"
"Fine."
Before the words had even faded, Ye Xiaojing had vanished from her spot at lightning speed!
The next second, she raised her knee to strike at...
Fortunately, Jiang Qian was already familiar with Ye Xiaojing's rhythm of starting a fight without a word. He had long since activated Snake Shadow Stealth and effectively avoided his vital points. The girl's knee struck his thigh, sending a wave of numbness from his muscles to his leg bone.
I said no hitting the head... Jiang Qian felt numb all over. "Teacher Ye, you aren't trying to teach me; you're trying to kill me."
"I'm just making you understand that there are many low-life enemies, and you must be able to face and defend against any possible attack."
Ye Xiaojing's expression remained composed as her next combo attack came in.
Ten minutes later, Jiang Qian, drenched in sweat, picked up his stun baton and walked to the side to answer a call.
"Hello?"
"Student Jiang Qian, this is Xiao Xuebai. There is some work to handle here; is it convenient for you to come back now?"
"Convenient, 10 minutes."
"Mm-hmm, no rush, I'll be waiting for you~"
Jiang Qian hung up the phone and looked at the unsatisfied Master Ye. "Department work, I have to head back. Thanks for today."
"So boring, I was just getting into the mood." Ye Xiaojing complained with a blank expression.
"Don't get too obsessed with me, see you later."
After a quick shower and changing into the spare clothes he had brought, Jiang Qian returned to the department.
The rabbit-like girl, Xiao Xuebai, was already standing there gracefully, waiting for him.
"Jiang Qian!"
"Sorry, I went to get a workout in."
"That's perfectly normal, our department isn't busy anyway~" Xiao Xuebai expressed her full understanding. "I heard something happened over there. A tough colleague from out of town came in and accidentally beat a colleague who walked into the wrong room so badly they were sent to the infirmary—almost broke their leg... Did you see it?"
I almost broke mine too... "Didn't notice, maybe they were sparring with the doors closed?" Jiang Qian laughed.
"Is that so?" The rabbit-like girl seemed much more passionate about gossip than work. "By the way, a few internal disputes have come our way. Come with me to handle them. Remember, once we're at the scene, watch my demonstration first, and you'll understand how to do it in the future~"
"Got it."
Thus, Jiang Qian welcomed his first day of work: mediating internal fighting incidents.
In the infirmary, a man with a mohawk stared with disdain at the bespectacled man who was being bandaged up like a mummy. "You want me to let him go? And apologize to him? Pfft! This jerk said I was a nepotism hire. Sigh, if I hadn't heard it, that would be one thing, but since I did, I had to beat his dog head in!"
Seeing the Security Department colleagues there, the bespectacled man refused to be outdone. "I don't want his apology, I want a medical injury assessment! I want him to pay damages!!"
"I'll send you to get a forensic assessment!!"
The entire infirmary suddenly became rowdy. Some were trying to pull them apart, while others were hiding far away.
Even the burly man who had just been brought in and was still unconscious was almost woken up by the noise.
At this moment, Miss Xiao Xuebai walked calmly between the two, her elbows bent, her little fists held up to her chest. She stomped her long, white, beautiful legs and pouted her lips:
"Stop arguing, you two~ Everyone sit down for me, right~ now!!"
Then the entire scene went quiet.
The two troublemakers seemed to freeze instantly, their respective goals and demands deviating severely in that moment.
They looked at Xiao Xuebai and began to listen to the young lady reason with them:
"You~ it was clearly you who started the fight, and then you tried to justify it and made it worse. So what if he called you a nepotism hire? You should have just ignored him!"
"And you~ what are you doing! Can we please stop with the rumors and gossip~ He's a powder keg, do you have to pour oil on the fire? Between colleagues, isn't there anything that can't be resolved properly~"
And then, the matter was resolved.
To Jiang Qian, these words had zero persuasive power, yet after Xiao Xuebai said them, those two colleagues acted as if they had been cursed; they apologized when they should, paid damages when they should, and had no complaints at all.
Jiang Qian earnestly took notes in his notebook:
Write: A Xiao Xuebai.
Notebook reply: "A rabbit who likes to eat aloe vera raw."
Write: Handsome Guy is Poisonous.
Notebook reply: "A hyena held firmly in the palm of a loli."
And paid the corresponding two secrets.
"See? As long as you reason with people properly, things get resolved quickly~"
Afterward, Xiao Xuebai shared her experience with Jiang Qian.
That's because the one reasoning is you. If I dared to reason like that, the forensic department would be very busy... Jiang Qian nodded thoughtfully. "Learned it, Senior."
After that, they handled some lost-and-found work, and it was nearly time to get off work.
The towering Wanzhong Group Twin Towers.
Many floors worked through the night, but License Holders would leave right on time or even sneak out early; the concept of overtime simply did not exist.
For example, when the last incident was handled and Xiao Xuebai and Jiang Qian returned to their desks, Captain Xiong Er and the other colleagues were already gone.
"Where... are they?" Jiang Qian asked casually.
"They went home, it's almost six o'clock!" Xiao Xuebai blinked, amused.
Then she opened her computer, pulled up a webpage, and started binge-watching a web drama...
A License Holder's working hours are typically nine-to-five.
"Alright, then why aren't you leaving?"
"It's my turn to be on duty today. In case of any special emergencies outside of working hours, I need to provide timely support and relay information. But you're an intern, so you don't need to worry about shifts~"
Jiang Qian understood. Although the Security Department's daily work wasn't heavy, if something really happened, the role the Security Department played was irreplaceable.
High risk corresponds to high reward; no matter how high the salary is, it isn't earned in vain.
"Are you the only one?"
"Da Lang is here too, the one who could talk the most during lunch. He's probably off eating again right now... It's fine, you can head home first!"
"Then I'll head out, stay safe."
"Mm-hmm, see you tomorrow!"
"See you tomorrow."
Jiang Qian did not go straight home after leaving the office area.
It was still early, so he prepared to go back to the gym to review what he had practiced with Ye Xiaojing earlier.
At this time, the gym was just as busy as it was during the day.
But Jiang Qian had booked a private space, which was sufficiently private and safe.
After closing the door, he took the black porcelain figurine of the Sorrow Demon out of his pocket and released the Sorrow Demon clone.
He practiced for about two hours.
Just as the Sorrow Demon clone was offering rational and reserved praise for Jiang Qian's progress, the Positioning Glasses in Jiang Qian's pocket sent an alert.
--Information that only Security Department employees within a fixed range can receive.
He touched his pocket. "It's off-duty hours now, should I check work messages?"
