In a flash, almost a month has passed since the freshman assessment meeting. After Lu Qianfan finished today's theory class, he felt that his body was about to fall apart. Now, in addition to attending classes, he is plunging into the woods to hunt demonic beasts every day. In the course of a month, the demonic beasts on the edge of the woods were brushed by him, and there were almost no more demonic beasts that didn't know him. At the edge of the forest, the only non-commissioned officer-level demonic beasts that can threaten him are mutated non-commissioned officer-level demonic beasts like the storm sand monkey. However, this mutant demonic beast may not be able to encounter one for a few months, and Lu Qianfan can encounter it the second time he enters the forest, and he doesn't know if his luck is good or bad.

"If you want to become stronger, can you only go to the depths of the forest?" Lu Qianfan scratched his head. His free time every day is simply not enough for him to enter the depths of the jungle, and with his strength, the large number of non-commissioned officer-level demonic beasts in the depths of the forest may not pose a threat, but once he encounters captain-level demonic beasts, he doesn't know if he can go home.

"Why don't you go to the City Guard?" Qi Zining hugged Lu Qianfan's arm and said, "So that you can have a little more time to accompany me every day." ”

Lu Qianfan nodded. "That's a good idea."

"Then let's go." Qi Zining raised her hands and said, "Buy me milk tea on the way!" ”

Lu Qianfan reached out and scraped the tip of Qi Zining's little nose, smiling dotingly. He took Qi Zining's hand and walked towards the city defense team. On the way, Lu Qianfan opened the address book of his mobile phone and swiped down. When crossing Xiao Ranran's name, Lu Qianfan paused slightly, and then continued to flip down. Until he saw Qi Zining's name. Normally, according to the order, Qi Zining's name should not appear here, but there are two words in front of Qi Zining's name, which were deliberately hidden by Lu Qianfan.

At the corner of the street, Xiao Ranran, who was talking and laughing with a group of people, suddenly glanced at a couple holding hands, as if she was envious of their love, but there was a trace of displeasure in her eyes. Jealousy makes people unrecognizable.

Lu Qianfan just didn't know, and led Qi Zining on the road.

"Qianfan, be lighter, you're hurting people." Qi Zining suddenly pulled out her hand and said with a complaining face.

"Uh, sorry." Lu Qianfan hurriedly smiled. He sometimes wonders if his drama nature is not good. It's been almost a month since I joined the crew, why can't I get into the role? Could it be because Qi Zining always likes to drive over people's faces?

In the base of the City Defense Force, the customer service lady in charge of consulting said: "Classmate, your situation is not suitable for our City Defense Force, we only recruit hunters who have obtained the title of quasi-knight or above, not to mention that you have not graduated yet?" Time and strength are not allowed. ”

"So what to do?" Lu Qianfan scratched his head, thinking that he didn't want to prove his strength after all, right?

The young lady is very kind. "You can go to the Hunters' Association and ask if there's a private office to recruit people," she said. They often have the kind of high-level magical beasts that infiltrate the city like you said, and the time is relatively free, and they don't need to go out to participate in hunting missions at regular intervals like the hunter group. ”

"Excuse me, do you have any recommended firms?"

"Here you go." As she spoke, the young lady printed out a list of dozens of pages long. "This is a list of firms that have worked with the Defense Force in the past ten years, you can look at it yourself and pick one. Contact details are all on it. ”

"Are you ready to deal with us guys?"

The customer service lady kept a warm smile, nodded and said, "Yes." So, can you please leave? I'm going to wait for you to form a group. ”

Regarding this kind of behavior of watching variety shows during working hours and brushing traffic for idols, Lu Qianfan really doesn't want to comment on it. He carried Qi Zining, who almost jumped out to bite someone, and turned around and walked towards the Hunters Association. "Let's go, I'll buy you chocolates. Let's go to the association and ask. ”

"Whew!"

Regarding Qi Zining's deliberate behavior of selling cuteness, Lu Qianfan was unmoved.

After some twists and turns, Lu Qianfan finally found his favorite office in an alley. "Seriously, it would be perfect if there was a clever little Lori here." Lu Qianfan looked at the "Laughing Shadow Office" on the old plaque, suddenly muttered, and then walked into the office.

It's not so much a studio as it is a quiet little bar. The old yellowed wine rack, the decoration full of classical style, and the piano song "River Flows In You" by Li Yunmin are still playing in the speakers. Lu Qianfan sat on the chair, closed his eyes and listened for a moment, feeling that his body and mind were much more relaxed. It's a quiet place, but it's a great place to relax. It's just a place to talk about work commissions, but it's too comfortable and warm.

"What do you need, sir?" At the bar, a middle-aged man in his fifties walked over and asked, "Do you still need me to recommend it to you?" ”

Qi Zining supported her chin with one hand, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that there is such a stylish little bar here." ”

Lu Qianfan took the menu handed by the man and didn't open it. He placed the menu on the table and tapped it lightly three times. "A cup of godfather."

"Then I want a cup of Persian cat......" Before Qi Zining finished speaking, the middle-aged waiter walked to the back of the bar and started to make ice hockey. Did she hear me? Qi Zining pursed her mouth.

"Dare to order a godfather at a young age?"

Lu Qianfan looked at the young man who walked to them, and he was secretly surprised in his heart. The young man is at most fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is a full ten years younger than Lu Qianfan—before the crossing. is two or three years younger than the current Lu Qianfan. The boy is not tall, wears a pair of gold-rimmed eyes, and has some old-fashioned scholarly flavor. However, compared with Zuo Chen's broken temples, they are much neater and neater. Lu Qianfan said to the boy: "I also didn't expect that the head of the most trusted private office of the City Defense Force and the Hunters Association would be so young. ”

"The achievements of Warcraft research have nothing to do with age." The boy seemed to have expected Lu Qianfan to say this. "Two years ago, I got my Ph.D. in the Department of Magical Biology."

"A double doctor of Warcraft physiology and demonic plant ecology?" Lu Qianfan was stunned. In my last life, I was a university and a military academy for further study, and I only had an undergraduate bachelor's degree, and now I have to go back to college for a second bachelor's degree, but I came out to find a part-time job and met a double doctorate? Lu Qianfan is envious, jealous and hateful. Even if you are a scholar, you are still a younger student than yourself! Lu Qianfan deeply understands why people can't be compared. Because people are more angry than people!

Of course, the young man's heart does not have as many emotional fluctuations as Lu Qianfan. "I'm currently studying for a master's degree in Monster Microbiology and Monster Medicine, do I need to see my degree certificate?"

"No, you don't." Lu Qianfan smiled, he couldn't afford to let the young man give him a real hammer in the face. Moreover, since he met Zuo Chen, Lu Qianfan believed that there was no shortage of geniuses in this world. What's more, a private firm that can be frequently on the list of partners of the city defense force, no matter who is in charge, is not easy to question. You don't see, those who question the genius boy in the novel, the nose and face are all good, and some people's grave grass is already one person high. Not judging people by their appearance is Lu Qianfan's code of conduct. So, Lu Qianfan was very calm and said that he had no jealousy: "I'm here to apply for a job." ”

"Then you have taken care of this commission." The young man casually threw Lu Qianfan a USB flash drive and said, "My name is Tang Jie, and the other people in the store are on a mission with grandpa, and I will be your partner this time." ”

"It's so simple and straightforward?" Lu Qianfan's eyes widened.

Tang Jie said: "Otherwise? Say hello to you again and design a commission test for you? We are busy and unavailable. ”

Regarding Tang Jie's simplicity and directness, Lu Qianfan felt that what he said was too correct.

"This kid can't talk." Qi Zining's mouth was so high that she was about to hang an oil bottle. Lu Qianfan sighed helplessly and said, "Trouble a cup of Persian cat and a cup of Jin Fishi." ”

The middle-aged man behind the bar said, "Got it, does the little master want a drink?" ”

"A cup of caipirina." Lu Qianfan didn't expect that after Tang Jie asked for a mocktail, he sat directly beside him. His little white face had not been much of an expression since the beginning of the conversation.

"Kid, you won't smile, will you?" Qi Zining glared at Tang Jie.

"Laughter is only meaningful when the secretions of endophine in the body are elevated, and the mood is in a state of joy. I don't have the physical or mental need to smile at you right now. Tang Jie said coldly.

Lu Qianfan looked at Tang Jie, and then at Qi Zining. He didn't notice that his behavior with Qi Zining showed any flaws, Tang Jie probably just didn't like Qi Zining to target her like this. He said, "Zining, don't worry about the child. Let's take a break and go, we still have commissions to do. ”

Tang Jie glanced at Lu Qianfan: "I'm not a child. ”

"When you're dealing with the commission, please prove your ability to me." Lu Qianfan smiled.

"That's what I want to say to you, too." Tang Jie said.

About half an hour later, Lu Qianfan and Qi Zining walked out of the office. Subsequently, Lu Qianfan's mobile phone received a message from Tang Jie: "Half an hour to prepare, gather at 17:00." If you're late, you'll be fired. ”

Lu Qianfan scratched his nose. "Zining, time is a little tight, I have to go back first."

"I'm going back so soon...... Qi Zining pouted and said, "You're obviously just a freshman, why are there so many things." ”

Lu Qianfan scratched his head. He said, "You also saw the commission you just received." I didn't expect to have a mission when I first arrived. He smiled wryly and said, "Why don't you go and play with the people of the club first?" ”

Qi Zining reluctantly let go of Lu Qianfan's arm and said, "If you miss the appointment, I won't take you to the club." ”

Lu Qianfan hurriedly made himself look more silly, and squeezed out a silly smile. However, he didn't scratch his head anymore - he scratched his head too many times, and his hair was oily. "You said you wanted to take me to the club to play together, but except for the first time I met two seniors, I was released every time. You've been promising me for a long time. ”

"You dare to blame me." Qi Zining pinched her waist with both hands and looked at Lu Qianfan angrily.

"How dare I." Lu Qianfan hurriedly waved his hand.

"Okay, I don't blame you. Go and get busy with you, come and pick me up when you're done. "Qi Zining seems to know the way of the royal husband very well, and he can be retracted and released freely. She waved her hand in a dashing manner and turned to leave.

Seeing Qi Zining's back walk out of sight, the smile on Lu Qianfan's face disappeared immediately. He took out the data port from his bag and connected the USB flash drive to his phone.

"I can finally change my mood."
