Chapter 2 Where It All Begins
"Yaxi, it's your birthday today. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info made it for you, your favorite braised pork ribs. To come back early in the evening"
"Sister, I have prepared a birthday surprise for you! Remember to bring your boyfriend in the evening. ”
"Xiaoya, what time do you get off work, I'll pick you up. Also, I'm very sincere this time, and I'm also preparing gifts for my father-in-law and mother-in-law, can you take me home today? ”
"Hee-hee, your boyfriend is coming to pick you up, and he dares to be so late. You'll have to teach him a good lesson. ”
"Hey, Wang Yaxi. Yuchen didn't pick you up. You know why? I'm telling you, it's because he's dating me on the rooftop right now. ”
"Yuchen, you know, I don't want to do this, and I don't want to tie you up. But who told you to keep trying to escape from me!! I've liked you for so many years, isn't it good to be with me. I always thought that even if you were with someone else halfway, you would choose mine in the end. Unexpectedly, you actually want to marry that person named Wang Yaxi! Yuchen, stay with me. I have already agreed with my father, as long as you agree to marry me, my father will invest in you and let you fulfill your ideals. I'm begging you! Yuchen, don't force me! ”
"Wang Yaxi, it's all you, the vixen. If it weren't for you, Yuchen and I would be happy. Why are you showing up! If it weren't for you, Yuchen would be mine! Yes, as long as there is no you, Yuchen is mine!! So, please! Go to hell! ”
"Peng !!"
"Ahhhh Someone jumped off the building! ”
Who is it? It's so noisy! Ah-hee frowned, rubbed her aching head with her hands, and slowly sat up.
"Wake up." A deep voice rang out. Yaxi was stunned for a moment, and raised her eyes to look in the direction where the sound came from. A handsome man in a black suit held a notebook and looked at her with a cold expression.
"You are?" Ah-hee looked at the man a little strangely.
"The Guide, code name 0203."
Yaxi frowned slightly, and her eyes became more and more confused.
The man glanced at Yaxi and added, "You're dead." ”
"I ...... He's dead? Ah-hee looked down at her hands, not knowing what to say. Oh, it seems to have been pushed down from the upstairs by Yuchen's some nervous suitors, and it was smashed to the ground, and it is estimated that the death is quite ugly.
Yaxi looked up into the man's eyes and asked suspiciously, "Then what are you here for?" ”
"I'll take you away." The man's voice was always calm.
"Where are you going?" Ah-hee was strange and asked.
"Time and space office, see for yourself" The man seemed unwilling to say more, and handed her the notepad in his hand. Yaxi got up from the ground, took the notebook and began to read.
Soon, Yaxi handed the notebook back to the man, and said tentatively, "Guide." Can I ask a few questions? ”
"You say" The man's face was still faint, without any superfluous expression.
"I have a choice, right?" Yaxi lowered her head, looked at her toes, and spoke with some hesitation.
"Yes, opt-in or ......"
Without waiting for another option, Yaxi looked up at the man suspiciously, "Huh?" ”
"Or disappear." The man's tone remained cold.
"Ahh How! Yaxi was taken aback and stunned on the spot.
"The state of the soul will be slowly worn away, and then, it will turn into nothingness."
"Then if I stay, can I go back and have a look? How much longer...... How long will it take to go away? Yaxi asked unwillingly.
"Stay, you'll be stuck here. It can be as short as a few days or as long as a few years. ”
"Here?" Hearing this, Ya Xi observed the environment after realizing it, and there was a white expanse all around, which made people a little panicked. "Where is this?"
"Energy interface. Take your pick. ”
Yaxi didn't speak again, a little stunned, thinking about something blankly. Time and space fell silent for a moment, making people a little frightened. The man didn't speak again, looking at Yaxi in a daze, looking thoughtful.
I don't know how long it took. Yaxi opened his mouth and asked, "What if I go with you?" What will happen? ”
"Join the firm, and you will have a soul orb, which will protect your soul from death."
"Then why ......" Yaxi was a little puzzled, one side is eternal life, and the other side is direct destruction, so why is there a choice?
"Sometimes, being alive doesn't have to be lucky, it can be a curse." The man's voice was a little low, and there seemed to be something in it that Yaxi didn't understand.
"Huh?" Yaxi was even more puzzled
"Well, you'll figure it out one day. Make a choice, join or stay. ”
"I'm ......" The man didn't open his mouth to urge, but just looked at Yaxi with a faint look in his eyes.
"I join" I don't know if it's an illusion, as if somewhere in time and space, there is an echo of this sentence.
"Yes, good. Have more questions? ”
"Well...... Without. Yaxi pondered slightly, then replied.
"Then let me ask you a question." The man's gaze was a little dark.
"Yes, you say." Although she felt strange, Yaxi still nodded honestly and answered yes.
"You seem to be too calm?" The man raised an eyebrow and asked with a strange expression. For the first time, a different look appeared on the man's face.
Yaxi thought about it seriously, and then replied, "Maybe, I haven't reacted yet."
A smile seemed to slip through the man's eyes, "Is the reflex arc long?" The man turned around and said, "Okay, let's go."
"We're going, Spacetime Office?" Yaxi hurriedly followed and asked.
"No, I'll take you to the induction inspection first."
"Ah, inspection, what happens if you don't qualify?" Ah-hee was taken aback and anxiously asked.
"If you don't qualify, you can't be an executor. However, there are plenty of other jobs for you to choose from. Don't be nervous, just treat it as a novice task, and the rewards for doing it well are very rich. The man didn't look back, his tone revealing a hint of teasing.
"Oh," Ah-hee replied softly, and then suddenly it occurred to her that she had agreed to join the firm. The man's expression seemed to have become vivid, and he was no longer as cold and indifferent as when he first appeared.
I don't know how long I walked, but the surrounding scenery changed, and a tall door appeared in front of Yaxi. The door looks a little old, and the whole has a quaint feel, and there seems to be a flash of light in the crack of the door.
The man paused, "It's already here." Also, this one is for you. The man handed over a small wooden box.
"What is this?" Ah Hee opened the box, and her eyes were attracted by a white bead in the box, as if there was a strong desire that dominated Ah Hee. But before Ya-hee could make any moves, the beads suddenly turned into pieces and disappeared. Ah-hee explained with some panic, "I'...... I haven't touched it yet! ”
"It's okay, that's how the soul beads were originally used. This is the No. 1024 soul bead, so you will be the No. 1024 employee in the future" There was a bit of reassurance in the man's eyes. "This is the portal, open it and you'll be able to proceed on your mission. You will be notified of the specific tasks. The man turned sideways and got out of the way.
"Well, thank you for your teaching" Yaxi took two steps forward, bowed to the man, and thanked him very formally.
The man seemed to be stunned by Yaxi's rather formal thanks, and then said, "No thanks, this is what a guide should do." He seemed to think of something, paused, and added, "I'll give you another piece of advice, keep your heart, you can only use 6 points with affection, and you must not be trapped in it." ”
"Well, I see," Ahsaki smiled, "Goodbye then" said as she pushed open the door.
Colorful light poured out, and in an instant, Yaxi disappeared.
The man's figure gradually disappeared. "Good luck, newcomer" An almost murmuring voice drifted through a white space-time.
All is calm.
