After assigning the study tasks, Masha led a group of girls out to school.
As soon as I went out, I saw Comrade Josephine standing at the door.
"Hey, why didn't you come to school yesterday?" asked Masha.
"Something happened yesterday." Comrade Josephine said in English, probably because she didn't want the ordinary people watching nearby to understand what happened. "My hometown was destroyed by a superpower."
Masha suppressed her smile and said, "That's unfortunate. Is your family okay?"
"I have no family left." Comrade Josephine looked calm. "Then the superpower who did all this surrendered to the East German People's Army and has now been officially incorporated."
Comrade Josephine stared at Masha and said, "I know you must be related to the Shadow or the unnamed organization that is currently arresting people with super powers! I want to entrust them with a task through you."

It's Monday, time to vote! Click the sign-in button above the bookshelf and you will get a vote.
There will be an explosion tomorrow, really.
Then let's meet at 7:30 tomorrow.
By the way, I recommend the new book "Miss Skadi Just Wants to Go Home" by the toy master.
Introduction: The true god of war, the true sword master.
Tidal Wave Elegy Warning!
You will definitely die if I strike you with this .
As you can see, this is the story of a true swordsman with garbled physical strength values who kills all enemies on his way home.
Chapter 479: Second in Command
Masha’s first reaction was “This is a lie.”
But after seconds, he thought that if this was a trap, it would be too ridiculous.
But a second later he wondered if the enemy was using this childish trick as part of their disguise.
Finally, he decided that no matter whether it was a trap or not, he would first deny that he had any connection with Ying and the vigilante. It would never be wrong to deny it here.
"I also want to find them and settle the score with them for beating up my sister." Masha spoke in Chinese, gritting his teeth as he spoke, as if he wanted to eat Ying's flesh and blood alive.
Comrade Josephine looked at Masha and said nothing, but this silence exerted strong pressure on Masha.
But Masha was no pushover, and continued to talk nonsense calmly: "But don't worry, I don't know why Ying pays so much attention to me, they must be monitoring me in some way. Now that you say such things in the street, Ying must have known about it. Whether to accept this commission is their business."
After saying that, Masha ignored Comrade Josephine, waved to the girls behind her, and then walked forward first.
But the league secretary immediately caught up with him and forced him to the side, preventing him from passing directly past Comrade Josephine.
"Are you crazy?" After passing Comrade Josephine, the League Secretary lowered his voice and said to Masha, "She must be mentally unstable. What if she gets angry and holds you hostage?"
"I knew you would come and clean up the mess." Masha laughed, "With my intelligence, how could I not have considered this?"
——I’m sorry, I didn’t think about that.
——But I won’t show it!
——My character of Mashado, who is both wise and almost a demon, cannot be overthrown!
League Secretary: "Oh, so I should thank you for your trust in me?"
"Not just to you, I thought someone among you would definitely come up, so I deliberately slowed down my pace. If no one comes up, I will change my route to increase the distance."
——Yes, I have calculated everything and there is nothing wrong.
——Whether you believe it or not, I believe it first.
The league secretary curled his lips, as if saying, "I'll pretend to be fooled by you to coax you."

Comrade Josephine stood there, watching Masha and his group going away. At this time, KGB agents appeared from the shadows.
"Comrade Josephine, your behavior violates the regulations. We are ordered to take you back." said the leading agent.
Josephine nodded: "I understand."
"Please surrender your weapons."
Comrade Josephine took out her pistol and handed it to the KGB agent who came forward.
Seeing that Comrade Josephine had no intention of resisting, the leading agent relaxed his expression and said, "We are very sorry about what happened in your hometown. I also understand your resentment towards East Germany. Comrade Vladimir wants to talk to you."
Comrade Josephine nodded.
——This is also expected.
——Then it depends on how Ying judges my value.
——As long as they think I am valuable, they may avenge me.
Comrade Josephine glanced around.
She didn't know where Ying's surveillance camera was hidden, but she believed that Ying must have known.
After all, he was a shadow, a shadow who single-handedly made the KGB, the Stasi, MI6 and the CIA run in circles.
——After completing my revenge, I continued to work for the original Warsaw Pact as a double agent and spied on Shadow’s intelligence, so this was by no means a betrayal, but just a correction of some wrong practices of East Germany.
——It’s a pity that after this, I can’t go back to the Stasi.
——The Chinese are right. Since ancient times, one cannot be both loyal and filial.
Comrade Josephine has a further understanding of the profoundness of Chinese traditional culture.

After school that day, Masha came back and checked on Baiquan's learning progress first.
As soon as I entered the fairyland, I saw Bai Quan sitting on Xue Jianmei's lap, with the back of his head resting on Xue Jianmei's chest, holding a biscuit in one hand and a book in the other, looking very happy.
"Ah, come back!"
Masha looked at the scene suspiciously, thinking, "What did you do to my sister Xue?"
Before he could ask, Xue Jianmei said, "Masha, Baiquan is so smart."
"Yes, yes, I'm so smart." Bai Quan said, with an expression that said "Tell me more, I want to hear more."
Xue Jianmei: "I just gave her a little instruction, and she learned all the math content in elementary school."
"What's so strange about this? Elementary school math is super easy." Masha used the skill "Scholar's Disdain". "Even the content of elementary school math Olympiad is super easy. I easily won the first prize of the Gold Cup."
"But she's doing well in junior high school!" Xue Jianmei frowned slightly, "She's only ten years old!"
——Eh? Wait, Sister Xue, are you speaking in favor of this little ancestor? Aren't you my concubine?
"Sister Xue, aren't you...my concubine?" Masha asked!
"Yes," Xue Jianmei blushed, "but does it matter? Baiquan is smart, and Masha, you can't deny it just because you are smart."
Baiquan laughed out loud: "Great, Axue! I've decided! Masha, if you want me to study hard, let Axue be my subordinate!"
Masha: "You still need subordinates?"
"Yes, I am the second smartest person in your organization, so I am naturally the second in command, and I must have subordinates!" The little girl twisted her body and moved back, getting closer to Xue Jianmei.
Masha: "No, Sister Xue is mine."
"I know," Baiquan blinked, "I'm not trying to take her away. Look, I'm a member of your Harem, and so is Sister Xue. You can turn over both of our cards when the time comes."
Bai Quan spread his hands and imitated the style of Wang Situ in the old version of the Three Kingdoms: "Isn't it beautiful?"
Masha looked at Xue Jianmei and said, "Is this okay? It will be at least six years before I can turn over the little girl's card."
Xue Jianmei showed very obvious hesitation for a moment.
"Uh... six, six years later I'm still..." Xue Jianmei hesitated to speak. It seemed that her hunger prevented her from waiting that long.
Bai Quan said quickly: "Hey, I didn't say we must flip together, you let him flip. But, what you do at other times is under my command."
Xue Jianmei seemed to accept it immediately.
But Masha didn't accept it.
"No, you are not allowed to run my organization and build a stronghold. I am the commander-in-chief."
"You are! But you must have a second-level commander!" Baiquan actually began to persuade Masha, "Look at me, I am very suitable. I am smart and cunning, and I will never let the organization suffer any loss!"
"It is because you are smart and cunning that I dare not let you build a mountain."
Xue Jianmei: "Masha, I remember you really like Wei Zheng's "Ten Thoughts to Admonish Emperor Taizong", which talks about combining civil and military power and ruling with ease. Baiquan is so smart. As long as you teach her well, she will soon grow into your right-hand man."
Baiquan looked at Masha with shining eyes, just like a child asking an adult for a toy.
Masha scratched his head, thinking that Xue Jianmei was an ordinary person, and nothing serious would happen if he let the little girl take command. Moreover, when the little girl made some unreasonable demands, Xue Jianmei would probably still follow Masha's will.
The most crucial thing is that the two of them are actually under house arrest. Because Sister Xue agreed to do an experiment on how spiritual energy affects ordinary people, she can’t contact the outside world except for calling home.
Masha will also be present during the call.
Even if Baiquan goes out, he will definitely act with everyone.
The key is that Baiquan’s loyalty and favorability are now quite high, and he has magic weapons to back him up.
If Masha had not been impressed by her cunning before, he would have trusted her completely long ago.
Masha: "As long as you study hard, it doesn't matter if Sister Xue gives you instructions."
"Yeah!" Baiquan cheered.
Then she asked, "By the way, where are my watermelon and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?"
——I feel that she will definitely not forget the benefits that have been promised to her.
"I've already bought the watermelon and put it in the freezer outside. It's Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. I'm going to go out and eat it now. When I come back after eating, the watermelon will be frozen."
"Great! Then come and check my learning results! The sooner we finish, the sooner we can go out."
Masha narrowed his eyes and looked at Baiquan, and asked: "Tell me the truth, have you found the joy of learning?"
"Not yet." Bai Quan actually told the truth, "So I want to do those math problems you mentioned and see if I can find some fun. Give me a whole book tomorrow."
——This guy is actually ordering me around. He is really taking advantage of me.
Although he thought so, Masha was still very happy that Baiquan was willing to learn. After all, he was planning to educate Baiquan and turn him into a research assistant.
So he said, "Okay, I'll get you a copy tomorrow. No, I'll get you a copy on the way to dinner today. Just go to any bookstore you pass by and buy it. I'm sure it'll be there."
After all, supplementary teaching books are the cash cow of the Chinese publishing market and every bookstore will sell them.

Chapter 480 Since the spirit energy is revived, everything will naturally become magical (rd update)
Masha and his group followed the navigation and arrived at the nearest bookstore. As soon as they stopped, they saw an old lady carrying out a whole bundle of books and placing them on a cart at the door.
The sharp-eyed Masha saw at a glance that the cover of the first book in the bundle was a teaching supplementary book.
So he went up to the old lady and asked, "Grandma, what's wrong with this book?"
While asking the question, he glanced at the old lady's cart, on which there were already several bundles of books. They all looked like teaching supplementary books, with many titles familiar to Masha, such as Five-Year College Entrance Examination and Three-Year Simulation, "One Lesson One Exercise", and "Hengshui Real Questions" - there were not many Huanggang secret papers.
The old lady glanced at Masha and said, "I'm selling waste paper. If you want to buy some, I'll give it to you at a discount. This bundle weighs about 20 kilograms. You can give me yuan and take it away."
Masha and her father went to sell old magazines at home. They usually went to the "dangdanglao" in the community - this is the name because the waste collectors in Guangdong Province would use a gong to beat the drums - and usually the waste newspapers were 60 cents per pound, while magazines were more expensive, 80 cents.
Ten kilograms for twenty yuan. The old lady is a good business person. Seeing that Masha looks like a scholar who is out of touch with the world, she just raises the price.
Masha didn't buy anything either, so she asked, "Why is the store selling waste paper for supplementary teaching materials? Shouldn't this be the best seller?"
"Who still studies these things nowadays?" The old lady laughed and pointed to the other side of the street. "Look, the cram school over there has been changed into a religious class."
Masha and the other girls turned their heads and saw a scaffolding opposite. Workers were taking down the "cram school" sign. The sign next to it read "Orthodox Taoist Meditation Class". The slogan on the window was also changed. It now read "Live lessons from the Master of the I Ching to help your children awaken faster than others."
——What the hell?
