Volume 1 The Ivory Tower Chapter 8 The First Job
First job
Li Zhi followed Miao Qingyin downstairs in a daze, and his suicide failed.
As for whether the reason for giving up suicide was due to cowardice or Miao Qingyin's interference, only Li Zhi himself knew.
Silently following behind Miao Qingyin, he looked at the slender figure in front of him and was slightly distracted.
Li Zhi didn't understand, he didn't understand why Miao Qingyin kissed him, he didn't understand why she sang songs that weren't good, and he didn't understand why she had to stop herself from committing suicide, in short, he didn't understand everything she did.
An inexplicable person doing something inexplicable interfered with his original plan, and Li Zhi really had a headache. Although he hadn't hurt in a long time ...
"Why do you keep walking behind me! What are you looking at?! Miao Qingyin suddenly stopped and turned around and glared at Li Zhi.
Li Zhi, who was wandering in the world, almost hit Miao Qingyin headbutt. "Didn't look at anything. I don't know what to do now, where are you going to take me? ”
"Hmph~ Go to the front! Since you listen to me sing, you are my person. So now go and find you a job so that you can support yourself. Got it? Miao Qingyin said as a matter of course.
"Work?" Li Zhi blinked blankly.
"That's right! Job! Do you have any other specialties besides being good-looking? Such as arithmetic, handicrafts and so on. Miao Qingyin pinched her waist with both hands and looked Li Zhi up and down.
"Hmm~ I want to think about it~ Hmm~ No! I won't do anything. Li Zhi gave the answer after thinking about it.
"You! I! Alas~ I really don't know how you survived until now! Miao Qingyin gritted his teeth, and he hated iron and steel.
"How did you survive until now... Profound! Pregnant! My pain sensation is numb, is this a specialty? Li Zhi thought of it a little along with Miao Qingyin's words. Considering the girl's kiss, he reduced the numbness of the feeling to the numbness of pain.
Miao Qingyin raised her eyebrows, narrowed her eyes, and looked at Li Zhi meaningfully. "Not afraid of pain? That's kind of interesting. Congenital? ”
Li Zhi shook his head. "I practiced the day after tomorrow."
Miao Qingyin's big eyes completely narrowed into a slit. "This can also be practiced?! How do you practice? ”
Li Zhi blinked and did not answer.
Miao Qingyin scoffed at Li Zhiyi's self-cherishing behavior. "Cut~ Don't say forget it! Okay, it's a specialty. Let me think about what job is right for you. If you're not afraid of pain, you should be suitable for fighting, right? But you're disabled, and you haven't awakened, so letting you go out of the base to do tasks seems to be sending you to death~ Your specialty can make you die more comfortably at most, Ao! No wonder you're looking for death! Miao Qingyin suddenly realized.
The atmosphere became weird, and the two of them stared at each other with big eyes...
"Hmm~ I remembered! Let's go back! Miao Qingyin pulled Li Zhi and walked back.
The hand was held by Miao Qingyin, but Li Zhi couldn't feel the delicacy of the girl's slender hand. He was forcibly taken back to the main building. "What do you remember? Slow down! My prosthetic leg is a hard time running! ”
"It's a good job for you, I saw it when I visited today. The special department in charge of the building~" Miao Qingyin shook the pass card at the guard at the door, and pulled Li Zhi back into the main building from the main entrance.
Li Zhi and Miao Qingyin once again took the elevator in the building, but this time their destination was not the top floor, but the underground.
"Na~ The second basement floor here is actually a training ground. You follow me, it's big here, don't get lost! Miao Qingyin and Li Zhi got out of the elevator and entered the magnificent, glittering hall.
Miao Qingyin took Li Zhi to the front desk. "Hello, I'm looking for that, that, Nie, yes! Manager Nie! ”
The receptionist at the front desk hasn't changed shifts yet. "Huh? Miss Miao? How did you get back? Looking for Manager Nie? Wait a minute. ”
After just two minutes of waiting, Manager Nie appeared in front of the two. Dressed in neat work clothes and with a professional smile on her face, she is an intellectually mature female white-collar image.
Manager Nie stroked his slightly messy hair and smiled at Miao Qingyin. "Welcome back, Miss Miao. What do you need? ”
"Well, hello. I want to help people find a job, just him. Miao Qingyin dragged Li Zhi who was looking around on the side.
Manager Nie was a little surprised, and smiled after seeing Li Zhi's appearance. "No problem, Miss Miao. This young man is good-looking, what do you think of the position of deputy manager of the service department? The monthly salary is ten white crystals. "These monthly salaries are quite a lot. The purchasing power of a gray crystal in the Shenyuan Era was equivalent to a hundred-yuan bill in the old era, or even more.
Miao Qingyin sensed the deep meaning of Manager Nie's words and frowned slightly. "No, I want to introduce him to you as your sparring partner."
Manager Nie was stunned for a moment, could she have misjudged? This teenager is not Miss Miao's personal favorite? "Sparring!? Are you sure? Miss Miao, this job will hurt! ”
"That's right! Sparring! Miao Qingyin bit the word sparring very hard.
"Uh~ Okay. However, the recruitment of sparring partners is no longer under my jurisdiction. Please follow me. After Manager Nie confirmed Miao Qingyin's decision, he led the two of them to the training ground.
Turn around, turn left and turn right. Li Zhi followed the two beauties in front of him, one big and one small, and walked dizzily.
Two minutes later, the three stopped in front of an office door, and the words "head coach" reflected the golden light on the door sign. Manager Nie pushed the door directly in, followed by Miao Qingyin and Li Zhi.
"Coming back so soon? Well? Ahem~ Miss Miao! Why are you here?! A man's rugged voice came from the office, first with surprise, then with surprise.
Manager Nie turned his back to Miao Qingyin and Li Zhi and glared at the tall, muscular man. "Miss Miao, this is Chen Jiao, you have seen it during the day. It is his job to recruit and train sparring partners. ”
"Oh, hello. I'd like to introduce him to you as a sparring partner. What about Chen's teachings? Miao Qingyin pointed at Li Zhi and said to Chen Jiao.
Chen Jiao was a little confused, he felt that the two minors might be making fun of themselves. The boy's head seemed to be about the size of his own hands, and his legs were not as thick as his forearms. Such a little white face actually wants to be a sparring partner? It's nonsense! He cast an inquiring glance at Manager Nie.
Manager Nie fully understood the doubts in Chen Jiao's eyes. But when she thought of Miao Qingyin's identity, she could only nod helplessly.
"Absolutely! Miss Miao. We're short of people right now. But well~ we need to test the sparring partner. This, this rule can't be changed. Chen Jiao saw Manager Nie's helplessness, and gave Miao Qingyin an ambiguous answer.
"What test? Okay, since it's your rule, let's get started. I'm in a hurry. Miao Qingyin frowned slightly, her father was still waiting for her to go home with her, and she was a little impatient.
"Good! Please follow me! Thank you so much that Ms. Miao can understand our work. After Chen Jiao finished speaking, he took the lead and walked out of the office.
It was another round and round, but Li Zhi's body became three people.
Chen Jiao led the three of them to a hall, which was filled with all kinds of fitness equipment, like a gym in the old days.
Chen Jiaoyi waved his hand and beckoned a muscular man who was training to come in front of him. "Go and call Lao Wang and Bai Xue over, and say that there are newcomers to test."
After the muscular man glanced at Li Zhi and Miao Qingyin curiously, he hurriedly ran to call someone.
Soon, a man and a woman appeared in front of the four of them. The man's hair was black and white, and he looked about fifty years old, but he was still strong. Women are fair-skinned as their name suggests.
"Well, an introduction. This is Lao Wang, who was a fighting coach in the old days, and has been working here since we opened, so he has a lot of experience! This is Bai Xue, the highest level of all our healers! Green-level Divine Power! With her, even if she has a broken arm or leg, as long as the severed limb is still there, she can recover as before! Chen Jiao briefly introduced the two.
Miao Qingyin's eyes lit up after hearing that Bai Xue could recover the severed limb. "Hey! Did you hear that? What about your legs? Have you treasured it? ”
Li Zhi ignored Miao Qingyin, he stared straight into Bai Xue's eyes. It was a pair of very simple eyes, but mixed with maturity. gave Li Zhi a very weird feeling.
"Huh? What are you pinching me for? Due to Li Zhi's numbness, Miao Qingyin pinched for a long time before regaining Li Zhi's attention.
"What do you see! Color embryo! Did you hear what I asked you? Miao Qingyin didn't withdraw her hand, and the flesh on Li Zhi's arm was about to be unscrewed off by her.
Li Zhi let Miao Qingyin pinch him, feeling very little. "Do you say my legs? I can't find it, not to mention that it's been two years and it's impossible to recover. ”
Green level healing power? Li Zhi remembered Liu Jing, who was also a green-level therapist. If she wanted to pick up her leg at that time, she should be able to do it...
"Miss Miao, I'm sorry to interrupt you. I take the liberty of asking, is there anything wrong with this handsome guy's legs? Manager Nie listened to it on the side, and asked Li Zhi for confirmation with some embarrassment.
"Huh? Oh, it's fine. I have a disability. Li Zhi generously rolled up his left trouser leg, revealing his prosthetic leg.
"This... Have you awakened? Manager Nie looked at Li Zhi's prosthetic leg blankly.
"Nope." Li Zhi replied.
Chen Jiao and Manager Nie looked at each other, extremely embarrassed. Lao Wang and Bai Xue didn't care much, they were looking for a newcomer to be tested by Chen Jiao. They never thought that the person who tested it would be one of the two minors.
"That, Miss Miao. Don't you think about it anymore? Are you sure you want this little guy to be a sparring partner? Chen Jiao was a little angry, he looked directly into Miao Qingyin's eyes and asked seriously.
Originally, he thought that this little boy was not the material for sparring, and thought that it might be a special divine power. Unexpectedly, this boy not only did not wake up, but also was disabled! The more Chen Jiao thought about it, the more angry he became, if it weren't for Miao Qingyin's father, he might have thrown the two children out of the training ground one by one.
Manager Nie also spoke, and she also felt that this joke was a bit excessive. "Miss Miao, think about it again! I really think that the assistant manager of the service department is more suitable for this little handsome guy! ”
Lao Wang and Bai Xue finally figured out that the newcomer who was going to be tested was this disabled boy. The two of them immediately cried and laughed.
Miao Qingyin found that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and now she was surrounded by four adults like a child who had done something wrong, and they wanted to make herself soft?!
Miao Qingyin's eldest lady had a temper, she didn't think she had done anything wrong. So she turned her gaze to Li Zhi. "Which job do you want to do? After all, it's for you to find a job, you can decide. ”
As soon as Miao Qingyin's words were finished, the eyes of everyone present turned to Li Zhi. "Uh~ whatever, I'll listen to you." This feeling of being watched by many people made Li Zhi extremely uncomfortable, and he hurriedly kicked the ball back to Miao Qingyin. And, as he himself said, he had a casual attitude towards the whole thing.
"Good! Then I'm sure! Let's start the recruitment test of the sparring partner! Miao Qingyin's words came out, with a strange sound wave that everyone couldn't see. She gets angry and unconsciously uses her divine powers.
Miao Qingyin was angry, she didn't know that Li Zhizhi couldn't pass the test, and even she understood that Li Zhi's situation might really not be suitable for the job of sparring. But she doesn't want to care about these things now, she just wants to stick to her decision.
Maybe she's wrong, or maybe the professional advice of the staff at these training grounds is very reasonable. But these are not the reasons to stop her Miao Qingyin from making a decision! She doesn't care about right or wrong now, she just wants to maintain her majesty, and her identity does not allow her decisions to be questioned by others! Taking a step back, at least no one here is worthy of questioning!
But at the end of the day, is there really a simple right or wrong in the world?
