Chapter 3: The Stranger
For the next few days, nothing strange happened, and Mu Fei thought that the experience of that night might be his own dream. However, the pattern on his wrist kept reminding him that these were not dreams. Because the matter was too weird, he didn't dare to mention it to Lin Wenyou, for fear of bringing unnecessary trouble to the other party.
However, compared to that terrible night, there were other more realistic troubles in his heart at this time. For example, looking for a job.
The world is so fantastic, but he still can't find a job, it's not scientific!
He began to wonder if he was cursed by this pattern, why did he fail every time he applied for a job? It would be unreasonable to think that he had a bachelor's degree, complete limbs, no bad habits, and couldn't find a job.
Is it a matter of looks? But he's not ugly.
Mu Fei's appearance is indeed not ugly, with fair skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a standard height of 1.76 meters, although it does not meet the image of a handsome guy with single eyelids that girls like at the moment, plus he is a baby face that looks a few years younger than his actual age, but he looks very clean and sunny.
Due to the blow of applying for jobs these days, Mu Fei seemed a little listless at this moment, walking on the road with his head down.
"Can I disturb you for a few minutes, sir?" A low, magnetic voice rang out from behind him.
Mu Fei looked left and right and saw that there was no one else around, presumably calling him.
"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry." Mu Fei said without stopping his head and not replying. Generally speaking, there is only one possibility for him to be accosted on the road, that is, the salesman of a store is ready to sell him a product, and at this time, once he stops, he will be entangled, until he starts to take out his wallet, so the general way to deal with this kind of person is to ignore him.
"Wait, sir, I'm not a suspicious person." The voice behind him followed unrelentingly.
Would any suspicious person admit that he was suspicious? Ignore ignore ignore ignorant. It was only after walking to the next intersection and turning a corner that Mu Fei slowed down. Whew, I'm tired, it seems that I haven't been exercising lately.
"Sir, may you listen to me now?" The magnetic voice sounded again, and Mu Fei jumped up in fright.
Damn, this guy is really indomitable! Do you want to work so hard? Isn't it okay to sell it to another person? As for being with him for so long?
kept complaining in his heart, the corners of Mu Fei's mouth twitched, and he turned to face the other party and said, "I'm sorry, I don't have any money on me, and I can't afford anything." "So don't waste your time, find someone else, big brother.
"Hehe, you don't have to buy anything." The other party seemed to be a little surprised by his answer, and after a slight pause, he smiled and said, "I just wanted to inquire about one thing." ”
"Not a salesman?" Mu Fei asked suspiciously.
"No, it's not." The person who came said with a smile.
"Well, okay, I didn't have to run if I said it earlier." Mu Fei took a breath and blamed.
...... "You didn't give me a chance to speak."
"What do you want to inquire about? Asking for directions? Mu Fei looked at the other party carefully at this time.
The man in front of him was about thirty years old, handsome, with a beard at the corner of his mouth, looking very British gentlemanly, and the three-piece retro suit was slightly exaggerated, as if it had come out of a medieval-style oil painting, just a hat and a walking stick. No matter how you look at it, it makes people feel special - suspicious.
Mu Fei subconsciously took a step back.
"Here's my business card." The mustache politely handed over a business card, and then asked with a smile, "I would like to ask if you are interested in joining our guild?" ”
"What?" Transmit. Pin organization? Mu Fei took the business card suspiciously and looked down, there were six golden characters of "Demon Hunter Guild" printed on it, and there was a line of dark red small characters "Huaxia Division President D" below.
The corners of Mu Fei's mouth twitched twice and said, "I don't play online games. ”
"What? Oh no, it's not a game. The mustache was a little surprised by Mu Fei's reaction, "We are a guild that exists in reality and specializes in hunting demons. ”
"Demon ......" This man has a broken brain? Mu Fei couldn't help but take a step back and distance himself from the other party.
"That's right, it's a demon. The evil demons that hide in the crowd are our enemies, and they disguise themselves as humans to approach people, and when they dispel people's guards, they will show their fangs and kill them. The mustache waved his arms as he spoke, looking like he was giving a speech on stage.
"That's horrible." Mu Fei was casually perfunctory while quietly taking two steps back.
"Our guild is looking for special humans who have the ability to fight against demons. These people are all chosen by the heavens, destined to be excellent demon hunters, and there must be a destiny mark somewhere in these people's bodies to prove their identity. The more the mustache spoke, the more excited he became, and his tone was very exaggerated, "It is the duty of our guild to find these people and fight side by side with them to destroy the demons. ”
"That's a lot of work." This guy is really sick. Mu Fei thought to himself.
"And you, this gentleman, are exactly the man we are looking for." The mustache suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Mu Fei and said.
"Huh?" Mu Fei didn't understand why this topic suddenly came to him, wasn't he talking about fantasy stories such as "demons" and "hunters"? "Are you mistaken?" He didn't want to have anything to do with this strange thing.
"No, I can't be mistaken." The mustache shook his head, and continued, "You definitely have a mark of destiny on you. To prove what I said, can you look at your body? ”
Body......
Mu Feigan smiled and took a few steps back, then quickly turned around and fled quickly.
"Wait ......" Before he could say a word, the mustache was very sad to find that Mu Fei had disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Helplessly stroking his forehead, the mustache whispered to himself: "I'm running so fast, do I look scary?" Bai Ye said that he had seen a weapon on his body, but was it or not? ”
After running away in a hurry, Mu Fei felt a little irritable.
Damn, you can encounter changes when you walk down the street. Status, has he been in a bad year lately? Why are you always so unlucky.
found that he was still holding the other party's business card in his hand, and he stuffed it into his wallet without thinking about it. At this time, the mobile phone rang, and when I looked down, it turned out to be an unfamiliar number.
"Hello, is this Mr. Mu?" The voice of a strange woman came from the phone.
"I am, may I ask ......" Mu Fei asked suspiciously.
"I am from the personnel department of xx company, we read the resume you submitted a few days ago, the company has decided to hire, the probation period is three months, please come to my company tomorrow morning to report." The strange woman said in a cold tone.
Mu Fei was overjoyed when he heard it, and hurriedly agreed, and hung up the phone after asking a few more questions.
Mu Fei of the xx company has no image at all, but he has submitted too many resumes recently, and he can't remember which ones he has. Either way, it's a good start, and it might mean his bad luck is coming to an end.
laughed like a madman for a while and called Lin Wenyou out to eat to celebrate. The state of affairs has long been left behind him.
Early the next morning, Mu Fei deliberately freshened up and put on the suit for the interview again, and came to xx company.
However, when he went to the HR department to report, he was told that there was no such thing at all, and that the company was currently reducing its staff due to management problems, and it was impossible to hire new employees during this period.
Mu Fei didn't give up, took out the call record of his mobile phone, and called back the call he received last night, but it turned out to be an old lady who couldn't even hear clearly.
Mu Fei almost dropped his phone. Nima, which boring guy is doing this prank?! What's going on, he's unlucky enough, and he still has to be played like this, do you think he can't be bullied?
However, even if he was extremely indignant in his heart, he couldn't help it, he couldn't find out who was playing a prank, and he couldn't reason with the xx company, so he could only leave in frustration.
As he walked on the road, he raised his right hand and looked at the strange black pattern on his wrist, he felt as if nothing good had happened since he picked up the dagger, was it really a curse of this thing?
Just thinking about it, Mu Fei noticed that the black pattern was getting hotter and hotter and slowly turning red, like steel being scorched by fire. The burning sensation stung his skin, and he gripped his wrist tightly with his other hand, looking around to find something that would cool him down.
"Yo, we'll meet again." A slightly familiar voice rang out.
Mu Fei looked in the direction of the sound, and as soon as he raised his head, he felt a sharp pain in his forehead, and he only saw a vague shadow and fell down in front of him.
Seeing that Mu Fei was dizzy, the visitor quickly picked him up and threw him into the trunk of an SUV parked on the side of the road, and then started the car and left the scene without any extra stop.
As this happened so quickly, the people didn't notice it at all, and a figure came out of the shadow in the corner about thirty meters away from them, quietly watching the direction they were leaving.
