Chapter 138: The Dice

in the bathroom.

The man in a leather jacket and a slightly old-fashioned style stared at the bone dice that were spinning on his palm, like a gambler with red eyes, and shouted urgently, "More than eighty, more than eighty ......"

In his whispered shout, the dripping and spinning bone dice slowly stopped, and the number twenty set by gold and silver threads immediately appeared in front of his eyes.

"One, two, three, four, five. ”

"One Hundred !!"

"Big Success!!

The man who had been staring at the five bone dice counted the points on the bone dice, and immediately clenched the dice in his hand into a fist, put them to his mouth and kissed them fiercely, then raised his head and muttered with relief.

"Thank the Lord for the blessing of my credit card saved !!"

He whispered a little gratification as he quickly put the five bony dice back into the necklace, put them back on his neck, and strode over to the bathroom sink.

The man looked in the mirror, carefully combed his hair, then straightened the mouth of his underwear, and walked out of the toilet with a smile.

His expression was calm, and he couldn't see the anxiety and uneasiness just now, as if he had become another person.

Zhang Jiao stared at the man who walked into the application room confidently from a distance, with a slightly curious expression.

He said to himself, "Multiple personalities?"

"Dice are a big success, do you use dice to change your personality?"

"It's kind of interesting, if his grades are okay later, he might as well let Alberon keep it, anyway, the vampire shapeshifters are all there, and he might as well have one more multiple personality. ”

When Zhang Jiao thought about these with a wicked taste, a touch of blood suddenly appeared from his eyes, and then quickly changed into eight scattered words.

Life, death, decay, exhaustion.

Good fortune, evil, misfortune, blessing.

These eight blood-colored characters are like gears that have been accelerated by a thousand times, turning and changing rapidly, as if they are faintly fighting against some unspeakable force.

It's just that this confrontation didn't last long, but in a moment, the blood-colored characters in Zhang Jiao's eyes suddenly collapsed.

The eight blood-colored characters that were constantly changing and flickering immediately collapsed into countless bloodshots, and then quickly disappeared into his eyes, as if they had never appeared.

Zhang Jiao, who was thinking about the applicant who had just walked out of the bathroom, suddenly went blank in his mind, and he was stunned in place.

It was as if there was a strange and unpredictable force that seemed to be absent and passed over, entangled with him like a thread.

Zhang Jiao's body immediately appeared a layer of light composed of red, white and blue.

In the gray mist, a halo on his head and a four-armed figure emerged from behind him, hugging Zhang Jiao tightly into his arms.

At the same time, Zhang Jiao, who was in a stupor, also came back to his senses.

He looked at the four arms that only hugged him in his arms, and his face suddenly became solemn and solemn.

"What's going on?"

In the whispered inquiry, countless images immediately appeared in his eyes.

Zhang Jiao looked at the picture in his eyes that seemed to have slowed down hundreds or thousands of times, and immediately noticed the abnormality he had just made.

"In that thousandth of a second, it seemed that a force had descended on him. ”

Zhang Jiao frowned and asked himself.

"I was attacked in some way?"

At the sound of his inquiry, four pale and smooth arms immediately reached out from behind him, with a blazing light, and then plunged straight into his body as if they were caressing a lover, like X-rays, carefully probing inch after inch.

Dozens of minutes later, the four arms that had been testing inside him slowly turned into nothingness, and then disappeared.

Zhang Jiao slowly stood up and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

He looked at the bustling city under his feet, and muttered to himself with a puzzled expression.

"I didn't find anything out of the ordinary, what went wrong, why did I get attacked for no reason, did someone find out about my existence?"

"The Old Gods, the Vampires, the Templars, or some other organization, or the five dice in the man's hand just now?"

Zhang Jiao recalled the bits and pieces since he entered this world, and immediately targeted the man who had just come out of the bathroom.

In the past few days, with the Harlem Divisional Police Department cracking the Harlem District major vicious gang rush incidents frequently reported, the popularity of William's firm has also increased dramatically.

Every day, a lot of phone calls come in to inquire about the release of commissions, and there are also a lot of private investigators who come to apply.

After all, William's firm has proven its ability, coupled with Zhang Jiao's high welfare package and lax management agreement relative to salary, which immediately attracted the attention of many peers, resulting in the number of applicants who came to apply in the past two days far more than in the previous days.

The man in the leather jacket who was rolling the dice in the toilet was one of the applicants.

Zhang Jiao didn't notice him, but after the other party saw that the candidates in front of him were eliminated one after another, his expression suddenly changed from very casual at the beginning to extremely nervous later.

The whole person was in a trance, and he seemed to be afraid of something, and kept muttering to himself, like a classmate who was about to take the fateful college entrance examination.

Therefore, Zhang Jiao paid more attention to him, anyway, the entire Sherman Mansion was basically in his perception, and paying more attention to one person was nothing at all.

Then the number of applicants gradually decreased, and when it was his turn to go in and take the assessment.

The man in the leather jacket suddenly apologized to Alberon in a panic as soon as he stepped into the application room, and then ran to the bathroom and locked himself in the bathroom.

His expression, which was different from that of an ordinary applicant, immediately attracted Zhang Jiao's attention,

Unexpectedly, as soon as the other party entered the toilet, he took off five dice directly from the necklace and shook them, especially after seeing the dice shake out a hundred points, his whole person suddenly changed by 360 degrees.

From the previous trepidation and anxiety, he immediately turned into a confident appearance, as if the great success he threw gave him endless courage.

"There's a problem with the dice?"

Zhang Jiao held his hands behind his back, and the image in his eyes continued to retreat until the moment when the man took off the dice and threw them.

Layers of blood light immediately appeared in his eyes, like a red circle, firmly locking the five bone twenty-sided dice.

The blood light flowed, and countless handwriting appeared, and wisps of gray mist spread out silently.

"Let me see, if it's you?"

In the deep voice, in the picture that appeared in Zhang Jiao's eyes, the five bone dice that were locked by the blood in his eyes immediately became a little blurred.

Zhang Jiao stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and the gray and white mist that seemed to be real and illusory immediately spread out from his palm.

I saw that his palm, which did not have the slightest trace, was empty, and there was nothing.

Zhang Jiao's eyes showed a look of understanding.

"There's something wrong with the dice. ”

He turned his head and peered through the walls toward the hiring room.

On the large desk, the man looked at the strange and complicated picture book in front of him, listened to the question that Aberon had just shouted, and immediately wrote down the answer with confidence.

Zhang Jiao's eyes looked at the file on the table, and the file that was blocked below immediately moved to the side silently, without attracting anyone's attention.

"Dewey Juliels. ”

Zhang Jiao looked at the sprinkling experience written on his job application file, and an indescribable smile slowly drew on the corner of his mouth.

"A well-known private investigator with eight years of experience?"

Zhang Jiao lowered his eyelids, and after the blood in his eyes completely disappeared, he slowly walked behind the desk and took out a document about the information of the royal family of Sanstanya from the safe next to him.

He opened the file, picked out the two images on top, and placed them on the table.

On the slightly old oil painting, a noble lady in a long dress is sitting on a luxurious sofa, looking to the side with a dignified appearance.

Behind her, a group of stone statues, holding parchments, bows and arrows, or swaggering are placed on the Bogu frame behind the noblewoman.

Zhang stared intently at one of the sculptures holding a stone slab, and then looked at the second image.

On the colorful posters, the same cultural relics with a sense of age are drawn on them, and they are briefly introduced, and a pair of words written in flowers are printed underneath.

"Welcome to the Sant'Angele City Museum. ”

Zhang Jiao's gaze moved down to the group of statues written on the poster, and then slowly fell on the name of the Sant'Angele City Museum.

"Museum of the City of Sant'Angolle. ”

Zhang Jiao lit the flowers and wrote words in the city museum of St. Angore, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said with some expectation in his expression.

"Mr. Dewey Juliels, it seems that I would like to trouble you to help us go to the city of Sant'Angore, after all, as the stronghold of Protestantism, it is not convenient for the rest of the office to go in person. ”

In a whispered voice, Zhang Jiao took out a document bag again and put the two pictures in it.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was time to get off work.

Zhang Jiao sat quietly in the office and waited.

After a short while, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in. ”

Zhang Jiao said immediately.

Alberon immediately walked in, and then said to Zhang Jiao, "Boss, these four gentlemen have passed our test, you can read the report." ”

As he spoke, he handed over a test report.

Behind him, three men and one woman, and four capable personnel immediately walked in, looking at the boss of William's office, who had recently become famous in the circle, with a little curiosity.

Zhang Jiao took the report handed over by Albert, flipped through it twice, and immediately walked up, and said to the four applicants standing respectfully in front of him.

"You are welcome to join our Williams family, please believe that this is definitely a choice you will not regret......"

In the sound of welcome, Zhang Jiao strode to the four newly recruited staff and shook hands with them one by one to welcome them.

After he shook hands with the first two staff members, a strange feeling suddenly rose from his heart when he came to this Dewey Juliers.

In a trance, Zhang Jiao only felt that the man in the leather jacket in front of him seemed to be an old friend he had known for many years, and he inexplicably felt a sense of friendliness towards him.

He took Dewey Juliers' right hand, shook it vigorously, and said heartily, "Welcome to William's office, Mr. Dewey Juliers." ”

"It's an honor for me, it's a place I've always dreamed of working. Ha ha. ”

In the midst of hearty laughter, Dewey Julills, who was wearing a leather jacket, immediately replied.

Zhang Jiao looked at his resolute face, and his affection for him became stronger and stronger.

Wisps of invisible light were about to rise from the back of his head, ready to suppress this inexplicable good feeling from the bottom of his heart.

But Zhang Jiao immediately stopped him, and with an increasingly friendly look, he patted Dewey Juliets on the shoulder vigorously, and then said.

"Yes, that's also an honor for us at William's Office, and I hope you can feel the working environment of your dreams here. ”

"No, no, no, I already feel it. ”

Dewey Julils smiled and blinked.

Zhang Jiao looked at him, and the two of them let out a loud laugh at the same time, and then walked towards the last lady and stretched out his right hand.

"Welcome to William's Office, Ms. Euphemia Jeffrey. ”

......

After welcoming and getting to know him, Zhang Jiao turned his head and said to Alberon who looked surprised next to him, "You go and talk to the finance, transfer a sum of money, and wait for us to have a party dinner to celebrate the entry of these new colleagues." ”

After saying that, he turned his head and said to the four new staff members in front of him, "Okay, please go to Susan's to sign the contract first, and then we will go to dinner together." ”

The four people standing in front of him immediately showed happy smiles, and then walked out of Zhang Jiao's office behind Alberon, who still looked a little surprised.

But after a while, Dewey Juliers, who had just walked out, walked in again.

He looked at Zhang Jiao, who had not yet returned to his seat, and said quite familiarly.

"Boss, can I advance half a month's salary, by the way, please give me a chapter of the employment statement! ”

Zhang Jiao looked at Dewey Julies's smiling face, and the rising goodwill in his heart made him agree without hesitation.

"Okay, I'll call the finance later, and you can go to her to go through the formalities." ”

Dewey Julils suddenly said happily, "Okay. Thanks to the boss. ”

After speaking, he waved his hand at Zhang Jiao like an old friend, and then strode out.

Zhang Jiao looked at the back of him leaving, the smile on his face gradually dissipated, and finally turned into indifference.

'Mr. Dewey Juliels, I hope you will not disappoint me. ’
