Chapter 3 The First Mission

Early in the morning, in the office of the Lai Yi Hospital, Cook was full of excitement, with an eager expression, this was the first day he officially started working, at this moment, Cook's mood was not only excited, but the whole little heart was about to jump out of his chest.

But it's a pity...... Cook didn't seem to know what he was supposed to do, so he just looked at it from the office.

At this time, Fenris was the only one in the office.

"That...... Cook...... Why are you here?" asked Fenris, putting down the papers in his hand, turning his swivel chair around and turning to Cook.

"Well, of course, it's work. ”

Looking at Cook's innocent face, Fenris couldn't help but feel a burst of heartache, and secretly slandered: That guy in Rio really didn't say anything to him, it's really irresponsible.

"That...... Actually......"

Before Fenris finished speaking, he only heard a loud sound of "pound", and the door of the office was pushed open, only to see Highlander panting and holding the door, and when he saw Cook, he shouted very complainingly: "You are really here, little Cook, it is really easy for my sister to find, go, it's time to work." ”

"Huh?"

Immediately afterwards, I saw Highlander directly grab Cook's wrist and drag the stupid Cook out. It wasn't until he walked out of the palace gate that Cook suddenly came to his senses. He asked with a puzzled face, "That...... Sister Lan, where are we going?"

"Work, work, you're an executive, you have a task today, you don't have to stay in the office. Highlander replied directly, but after seeing Cook's expression suddenly become more stunned, Highlander complained helplessly: "Ah...... What does that guy in Rio do, why didn't he tell you anything? ”

"Every once in a while, we will receive all kinds of power of attorneys, most of these commissions are strange events that the branch can't handle, and then our headquarters will send someone to deal with it, usually only one person will be assigned, but since you are a newcomer, Rio specially ordered me to bring you, in short, you will act as my assistant first. ”

Under Hailando's explanation, Rio suddenly understood, thought for a moment, and asked, "Then, Sister Lan, what is the content of this commission?"

"Hmm...... It's a bit cumbersome to explain, so you'll just take a look for yourself. Highlando's bag took out a letter of entrustment and handed it to Cook.

After Cook took the letter of entrustment, he opened it directly and read it carefully.

The letter of commission is very detailed, but in short, it only illustrates a strange phenomenon - a non-remarkable troupe has skyrocketed in popularity and popularity in recent days.

Huh? This can be easily done as long as there is a psychic ability that can manipulate the ability to confuse the audience...... Cook was a little speechless after reading the letter of entrustment.

Just when Cook was wondering, Highlandou had already led Cook to a meadow with strange patterns, and at the four corners of this meadow there were four metal ridges, the structure of which made people's scalps tingle just by looking at it, and it also gave Cook a feeling similar to that of an ice flower, and a huge bronze mirror hung on each platform, aimed at the grass in the center.

"It's a space-type ability item that can teleport from a distance. Highlander explained directly to Cook.

Cook also swallowed violently, obviously shocked. I didn't think there was this in the palace.

On the other side, after Hylando's explanation, he showed a playful weird smile again, looked at Cook with bad intentions and said, "Then, enjoy your first time." ”

As soon as the words fell, Hylando injected supernatural energy into the lines on the grass, and then these lines seemed to come to life, and began to twist and wriggle on the grass, connecting the four corners of the ridges, and at the moment when these lines touched the edges, the four huge bronze mirrors suddenly illuminated a very strong purple fluorescence, and the space where Cook and Hylando, who were in the fluorescence, began to gradually distort.

"These lights...... It's all supernatural energy!" Feeling the abundant supernatural energy within the purple fluorescence, Cook couldn't help but exclaim. However, just when Cook was surprised, a strong feeling of discomfort and dizziness struck, and Cook immediately covered his mouth, and before the last trace of consciousness disappeared, Cook remembered what was in his heart: Ah...... I want to throw up......

……

Hajigis City is an ancient city in the north of the Leia Empire, although it is not as prosperous and rich as a first-class city, but its cultural heritage is among the best in the empire. And in a rather ancient and elegant building in this ancient city, Cook was sitting on the sofa at this time, his face was pale, his whole body trembled, he clutched his stomach tightly, and muttered intermittently: "Yes...... I'm sorry, Sister Lan...... I might ...... I don't fit in with that ......."

On the other hand, although Highlander really wanted to play the image of a reliable big sister who was both gentle and handsome in front of Cook, it was obvious from the unstoppable smile in her eyes and her trembling body that she was almost unable to hold back her laughter, just when she was about to burst out laughing, she cleared her throat violently, stopped laughing, and said with a rather reliable image: "It's okay, everyone is like this at the beginning, and you will get used to it when you use it more later." ”

"Really...... Really......"

"Of course it's true, it's more important than this. Hylando was obviously changing the subject, and she was afraid that if she continued to talk about this topic, she would really laugh out loud.

After reorganizing her emotions, Hylando straightened her clothes, sat up straight, looked at a middle-aged man in a black suit on the other side, and said with a straight face: "Dean John, can you elaborate on your commission this time?"

"Naturally. John nodded and continued, "That's right, the Dragon Circus is a small group of supernatural people, who usually rely on their own supernatural talents to make a living, and it has been tepid for several years, but in recent times it has suddenly become popular, and if it was just like this, we wouldn't pay too much attention to them, but later, we found out that the repeat customers of this troupe have reached almost 100%, and many of these people have seen their performances four or five times. ”

"100 percent? huh...... Indeed, even the top artists in the empire with a large number of fans will not have such a high return rate. Hylando thought about it for a moment and realized the problem.

Because whether it is a top artist, or a suddenly popular troupe such as the Dragon Circus, the Dragon Wheel Coins required to enter the venue alone is not a small amount, although the living standard of the empire is very high, and it is nothing to watch a few times like this kind of performance once in a while, but the problem is that the Dragon Circus has only become popular in recent days, and it has reached four or five times in just a few days, which will have an impact on its own economy no matter how you think about it. Even top artists and idols perform and hold concerts every day, but the people who go there every day are basically different.

"Could it be a mind-manipulating psychic powerhouse?" said Cookdown, even though he had made his previous guess.

After hearing Cook's speculation, John sighed and said, "We thought so before, so we sent personnel to investigate those viewers several times, but in conversations with them, we found that their mental thoughts were not controlled, and they were no different from normal people. ”

"Since they are not mentally manipulated, it means that everything is intact in their minds?"

"Yes, there is nothing wrong with their spiritual thoughts, and even going to the show is a choice they make after their own judgment. John replied.

"Even if there may be financial problems in your own life?" asked Highlander again.

"I have a recording of this for you. As he spoke, John removed a pen from his breast pocket, which turned out to be a voice recorder.

As John pressed the switch, the voice recorder began to make a sound.

"Hey, man, what's so interesting about this kind of show. ”

"Hehe, you don't understand this. ”

"I don't understand, but even if I don't understand, I won't watch four shows in a row. ”

"Hmph, that's what it's called, fan love!"

"Uh...... Brother, aren't you ashamed to say this, what do you love or not......"

"Uh...... You do seem ...... to say that."

"Moreover, it costs twenty dragon wheel coins to watch such a performance, which is very expensive, so you are not afraid that you will not be able to eat later. ”

"Ah, this, it's okay, it's okay, I've calculated it well, don't panic at all. ”

After that, the voice recorder makes a "beep" sound, and there is no more sound, and the recording ends there.

"It's a normal conversation. Cook whispered.

"Yes, but the hundreds of spectators in the first show of the troupe's official popularity have almost never been absent from all the performances since then, and it is impossible to say that they all became avid fans in that first performance, but it is strange that all the audience members are normal. At this time, John's face seemed to be clouded.

"Hmm~ This Dragon Circus seems to be going to be a very interesting case. "Highlando's interest seems to have been completely ignited by this Dragon Circus, and the whole face is full of fun and pleasure.

Then, I saw Highlander get up and say to Cook: "Little Cook, let's get here today, that troupe has another performance tomorrow, let's go and have a good look." ”

"Okay, Sister Lan. Cook smiled at Highland.

Hylando also smiled back, and then looked at John, and said, "Dean John, I will ask your department to fully assist us in the future." ”

John got up very gentlemanly and bowed slightly to Hylando, and said, "Naturally, the branch of the Laiyi Academy managed by my John will do my best for the headquarters and the beautiful lady. ”

"Oh, Dean John really understands women's hearts, little Cook, this is your role model for the future. Hylando was obviously overjoyed by the phrase "beautiful lady".

"Eh......" Cook looked away very unnaturally, and muttered to himself: This is too shameful, what era is it, and the gentleman has long been outdated.

"Well, then, let's go, we've booked a hotel room for both of you early in the morning, but ......," John looked at Cook, as if there was something unspeakable.

Seeing John like this, Cook inexplicably had a bad premonition.

"Actually...... Because she didn't know that Ms. Hylandor had an assistant, she ...... There is only one room to book. John hesitated for a long time before he spoke intermittently.

Yes! I've heard what Sister Lan said before! There is only one executive officer sent out each time! At this time, Cook's mind turned up in turmoil, and he looked at Hylando in great horror. However, I saw that after a moment of confusion, a mysterious smile hung on the corner of her mouth, looked at Cook with a smile, and said to John: "It's okay, it's okay, the two of us are honest with each other, so we don't need to find another room." ”

"No...... I think ......" But before Cook could finish speaking, he only felt a hand on his shoulder, and a chill rushed up from the bottom of his foot. After that, my whole body trembled inexplicably, and I couldn't say anything.

"Oh, Brother Cook, wouldn't you like to sleep in the same room with your sister?" The scent that blew in his ears seemed to have magical power, making Cook feel as if he was frozen.

"Oh, I didn't expect the two to be sisters and brothers, so it wouldn't be a problem. John said with a sigh of relief.

How the hell did you get into the position of head of the branch of the Rysan Academy?!

"Well, then, let's ask Branch Dean John to give us a ride. ”

"Naturally. ”

Eh???????
