What those weird officials from the Third Bureau meant was that Fan Xian’s body conformed to standard proportions; the equipment they had provided would fit him perfectly without the need for adjustments
Fan Xian put on his outfit and frowned as he recalled that night when he was five years old Fei Jie earing the sa
Senior Disciple Leng explained, ”It is e froreat axe, young disciple, I advise that you dodge”
Fan Xian smiled bitterly and spread out his arms The outfit was in accordance with the newest style in the capital, only it had a hood on the back
”I shall be taking your hidden crossbow” Leng recognized the crossbow on Fan Xian’s left arlance
Fan Xian sighed as he reluctantly obliged That crossbow had acco his person
Boss Leng judged the circumference of Fan Xian’s arm and opened a box on the table He took out a small and delicate crossbow that was painted all black He carefully put it in Fan Xian’s sleeve and lance at the crossbow Fan Xian just took off ”What a piece of junk To think you’re still using a o”
Fan Xian s carefully explained thecrossbow But due to size restraints, it only has a capacity of three bolts Those bolts have been dipped in poison number four You should knohat it is”

Fan Xian was even”But arsenic is a ood stuff—acts faster than poison arrows”
The topic of poison invoked a sort of professional excitement The three other officials, also froarding which poison would bring the slowest,under theRiver
All things considered, the Third Bureau of the Overwatch Council was a bizarre department, occupied by a bunch of bizarre people
After stepping out of the Third Bureau, wang Qinian noticed Sir Cohtly flushed, as if having done so like a learned scholar every day is hard work It’s much better to talk about useful skills at a place like this”
The bizarre seniora cup of tea He looked at Fan Xian in the distance with a satisfied expression
