Chapter Twenty-Five: Hebo's Entrustment
The cottage duo ushered in a period of leisure, and the two had little to do other than the necessary exercise every day.
The habits of the two are very different, and the two can only meet during the day when they have a meal. Fang Yaoyao is a dead house character, when he is idle, he sits on the sand and brushes TV series, and he doesn't go out if he can, while Yu Mingyu is the kind who can't be idle, he likes to go to various places for a stroll, get on the bus, and swipe the card is a journey.
There are many bus lines in Shang'an, and Yu Mingyu's original circle of activities is not large, and these lines are enough for him to kill time for a while.
This habit was only developed after Yu Mingyu became a blood clan, according to his own words, although he is no longer human, but he often looks at it, and it can still make him remember his former life.
Losing is not really losing, forgetting is.
At lunchtime, Yu Mingyu was busy in the kitchen, and after the death of his parents, Yu Mingyu had the habit of cooking by himself, and now he is nothing more than making more. The division of labor between the two is quite clear, Yu Mingyu is in charge of the spoon, and Fang Yaoyao is responsible for buying the next day's ingredients every evening, and the only difference is probably the ownership of the dishes and chopsticks after the meal.
It stands to reason that Fang Yaoyao also lives alone, but after eating a few meals of fried noodles, the kitchen becomes Yu Mingyu's territory.
The deadline for purchasing ingredients is strongly recommended (forced) by Yu Mingyu, and in his worldview, ingredients can only stay in the refrigerator for one day, which can be said to be his paranoia.
"Eryu, hand me a jar of brown sugar!" Fang Yaoyao shouted towards the kitchen.
Yu Mingyu rolled his eyes, handing brown sugar was the second new habit he had developed.
"Here, there isn't much brown sugar in the bag, I guess I can fill another can and buy some at night." ”
"Okay, okay!"
Yu Mingyu shook his head, what is he, a follower or a proprietor? Every time he takes brown sugar, he can't help but think of the story told by his classmates, a big golden retriever goes to buy ham sausage every morning with money in his mouth......
After eating, the two sat at the dinner table and chatted, digesting food by the way.
"Let's go around Maverick Mountain, see if there's a suitable task, it's been too idle lately. ”
"Okay, let's go. ”
"Well, then you go and wash the dishes, and we'll set off after brushing the dishes. ”
"Why?" Fang Yaoyao slapped the table on the spot.
"I cooked......"
"I paid the rent......"
Hearing this, Yu Mingyu let out a sneer and said, "Since this is the case, there is only the old way!"
"Let's make a move," Fang Yaoyao said contemptuously......
……
The hut duo came to the Shang'an City Judge's Court, and as usual, the two went to the seagull to greet them first. After learning that the seagull didn't have any recommendations, the two went down to the first floor and went to the task by themselves.
Yu Mingyu didn't see Hu Guofu here, and the seagull said that Hu Guofu went out of Shang'an four days ago and followed his boss to do the task, and now he doesn't know where to hide.
On the left side of the first floor of the Inquisitorial Court is a seating area with chairs and coffee tables, as well as free tea from the Shang'an Inquisition.
Every day there is a group of adjudicators who are about to run out of food, and when a better task comes along, they will be like sharks that smell blood. Don't be surprised if you hear about a few fights in the court one day.
In the past, Yu Mingyu would not pay attention to this area, he didn't know a few of these friendly colleagues, but Fang Yaoyao did know some, but he didn't plan to introduce him.
But the person sitting here today caught Yu Mingyu's attention, it was a young man, who was about the same age as him just by his face. But the man wore an unfashionable blue-gray tunic, and a cane standing against the table by his side.
"Don't look at it, it could be an old monster that hasn't been born for a long time. It was Fang Yaoyao who spoke.
"This kind of existence is generally eccentric, be careful that people beat you, I won't help. ”
Yu Mingyu looked at the other party's outfit at least in the thirties and forties of the last century, and he had to live for more than 80 years, but there was no trace of time in this appearance.
It doesn't matter, it has nothing to do with yourself, it's enough to satisfy your curiosity. Yu Mingyu and Fang Yaoyao also browsed the task list together.
Most of the good tasks are no, otherwise those old fritters can't sit firmly on the Diaoyutai, and the two of them can only be taller among the short.
Yu Mingyu counted them one by one on the task list.
The first is to remove the ghosts in the southern urban area of Shang'an City, and the reward is 6,000. With only three vials of blood, the duo of this task hut can't look down on it, and it's too ......
Immediately after that, the second bounty was 200,000 yuan, and the fourth-order monsters that were scurrying around were investigated, and the bounty was attractive, but they couldn't afford to provoke this big Buddha, and they were too ......
……
The tasks are crossed one by one, and the tasks that are not taken away are basically the same, either too small or too big.
Suddenly, a task flickered into Yu Mingyu's line of sight.
Mission code D0125, searching, bounty negotiable.
Yu Mingyu pointed out this task to Fang Yaoyao, and Fang Yaoyao also became interested, this kind of low-risk, bounty and leeway is not much of a task, and it can still be hung here without being taken away.
"Searching for someone, this commission is rare!"
The staff in charge of receiving the task saw that the two of them were interested in the tracing commission, so they said: "This task has been sent for three days, and there are many interested people, but in the end they all refused." ”
"See the young man in the tunic over there in the rest area? He's the one who posted the mission, if you want to take on this task, go talk to him!"
"Has he been waiting here?" Yu Mingyu said in surprise.
The staff spread their hands and said, "It's been for three days." ”
For tasks that normally need to be discussed face-to-face, the client generally only leaves a contact information, and this client who waits every day is patient enough.
Yu Mingyu and Fang Yaoyao glanced at each other, anyway, the two of them are idle, it is better to go up and see what the situation is, take it if you can do it, and leave if you can't do it.
"Hello, we would like to know about your posting task. Yu Mingyu and Fang Yaoyao sat directly in front of the young man.
"Hello...... young man's voice was soothing and deep, like a call from an ancient time.
"Come with me to the ashram over there, it's not for too many people to know. The man got up and made a gesture of please to the hut duo, and the two hurriedly followed the man.
The ashram of the Inquisitoris's House was just an empty room with simple decoration, with only one set of tables and chairs, and not many people usually used it. After the three of them entered, they were divided on both sides of the table, and the man did not say anything politely to the hut duo, and said directly: "I am not entrusting the search for people. ”
This sentence did not surprise the two of them, Yu Mingyu and Fang Yaoyao had already considered that eighty percent of the tasks of the Referee Court had nothing to do with people. If you're just looking for someone, it's better to go to detectives and police, who are more professional in this area.
"As long as I can find her, I can pay you anything but money. ”
Yu Mingyu was confused for a while, what does this mean? No money, but with everything? And hearing this, Yu Mingyu felt in his heart that the possibility of them taking over the task was even smaller. It seems that the bounty offered by the client is not low, and the reason why the adjudicator can give up is only the difficulty of the task itself.
Fang Yaoyao said solemnly: "Let's talk about the task first, there have been many people who have rejected your commission, and we are not sure if we can complete it." Can you give us some clues? and the characteristics of the target you are looking for. ”
The young man leaned his cane in both hands, lowered his head and sighed silently.
"All I know is that she's in Shang'an, I don't know what her name is, and I don't know where she lives......" His soothing tone seemed to be covered with an indelible layer of sadness.
"Is she a woman in the broadest sense of the word?"
"Yes. ”
"I've forgotten her face for a long time, you can take a look at this, I hope it helps!"
Yu Mingyu and Fang Yaoyao thought in their hearts, if there are photos, this commission is not impossible.
But the young man had no intention of taking something out of his body, and he raised a hand as if to hold the air. As the hut duo bewildered, several streams of water emerged from the man's fingertips and flowed upwards in defiance of gravity.
In the sky above, several currents of water converge to form a clear balloon of water. If it weren't for the faintly flowing texture, both of them would have thought it was a crystal ball. Little by little, the water balloon floated in front of the two, and the two unconsciously focused their eyes on the water balloon.
"Look, this is a memory I haven't lost yet......"
As the man's voice fell, a dynamic picture suddenly appeared in the water balloon.
