Chapter 44: I was sold, and I had to help count the money

"Chiyi, the Ikeme family......" Rin repeated this sentence, and felt a sudden 'buzz' in his head.

Ikeme, is that the Ikeme family who has always wanted to buy her house?

Looking at the young man in front of her who was about the same age as herself, it was hard for her to imagine that he had tried to use various methods to trick herself over the years, and was bent on buying the young master of the Ikeme family of her family's old mansion.

"Miss Ye, why are you distracted?" Chi Yi took a step forward, still smiling, looking down at Rin Rin with a look of earnest care.

Seeing this scene, Talos only felt a burst of disgust at the moment, and then took Rinrin's hand, "Hungry, let's go home." ”

Then, without waiting for Rin to react, he pulled her and hurried away.

Only Chi Yi, who was still standing in place, watched their figures gradually disappear in front of him, and finally put away the smile on his face that seemed to be bright.

"This armed puppet is interesting."

Chi Yi muttered to himself, thinking that when he went back over there in a few days, he would definitely tell her about this interesting armed puppet. I guess that person must have been very interested when he heard it.

Turning around, the white cloak fluttered behind him, and with just a gust of wind, Chi Yi's figure had disappeared, as if it had never appeared.

At this time, although Rin was pulled out by Talos, her mind was full of things about Chi Yi.

She never thought that she would meet someone from the Ikeme family in the association, and this guy is obviously not a good person. If he pretends to make trouble for himself, then her future work in the association will not be easy.

Most importantly, the way he looked at Talos. Obviously exploring, and with a look of ill will.

"Sure enough, I still have to think of a way to be prepared." Rin Rin muttered to herself with a solemn expression on her face.

But just as she was thinking about it, she heard a sudden dog bark from her feet, which forcibly pulled her back from her thoughts.

When I looked up, I saw a Shiba Inu lying on his stomach at his feet, holding his ankles with a cute face at the moment, barking loudly.

Rin squatted down, touched the little guy's head dotingly, and pinched its fleshy cheeks, and felt a small bubble of healing float in his heart.

After rubbing the little guy for a while, Rin Rin realized that he had unknowingly walked to the door of a Wang Xingren café.

And the little Achai in front of him ran out of this store to attract customers.

Rin rubbed its head and was about to leave, but her eyes suddenly stopped on Talos, who had been silent beside her.

Well-behaved, cute, and good-looking......

Rin Rin stared at him thoughtfully, and Talos panicked as he watched.

If there were a mirror now, Rin would definitely see it, and her eyes were flashing with little golden stars that were about to overflow, representing money.

"Rin, you, what's wrong?"

Talos noticed Rin's strange appearance and instinctively took a step back. I didn't want to, but I was grabbed by Rinrin's hand, and then without saying a word, I pulled him into the Wang Xing Cafe in front of me.

"Talos, didn't you say that you would like to know about the patterns and behaviors of human beings? There's a good opportunity in front of you, so you can say if you're willing to do it. ”

"Really?" Talos visibly didn't believe it.

Although he did say this before, and wanted to understand the so-called 'humans', it was only so that he could more easily read Rin Rin's temper and how to deal with it.

As for the others and the emissary, he was simply too interested in delving into it.

"Of course it's true, don't you believe my words?"

“…… Believe it. Talos spat out these two words weakly.

"Well, well, the best way to understand human beings is to see more, listen more, and communicate more. I think the environment here is also good, and when I go to work in the association in the future, you can work here! ”

Rin looked like she was talking to herself, not noticing the reluctance on Talos's face at this time.

At this time, there weren't many customers in the store, so Rin dragged Talos around.

The whole store has a small and fresh style, and the store can be seen everywhere with a variety of products, and a wide variety of Wang Xingren, looking at it, only feel a healing and harmonious scene.

Rin Rin came to the cash register and tapped on the table before entering, "Store manager, do you still have people here?" ”

"I'm sorry, but we don't recruit waitresses for the time being." The store manager didn't stop stroking the hand of the puppy in his arms, and he didn't even lift his eyelids, so he responded casually.

"It's not me who applied for the job, it's him!" With that, Rin pushed Talos in front of the store manager.

The store manager was still careless, but when Talos staggered in front of him in a few steps, the store manager's hand, which was originally following the puppy's hair, suddenly stopped.

He stood up, looked Talos up and down, left and right, and then reached out a finger and carefully poked Talos's delicate cheek.

At this time, the store manager's heart was already happy, although he probably recognized that this should be a puppet, but he still pretended to be calm and asked, "He's a puppet, right?" ”

"That's right."

Rin puffed up her chest proudly, even though Talos was a three-nil product. But when it comes to the rarity of armed dolls, it is not something that ordinary magicians and people can have at will.

So she still has this little pride.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the store manager's face was even more joyful. After all, such a beautiful boy with a Peugeot is sent to the door, how can he not want it?

What's more, it's still such a finely crafted puppet.

"Do you have work experience?"

"Hmm...... Although I didn't have the experience, my physical strength was good. He can handle the heavy physical work in your shop, or some simple tasks. ”

The store manager scratched his cheek, with such a good appearance condition as Talos, it is too condescending to use it for physical work. But it doesn't matter, you don't have experience to cultivate, and you won't lose.

The so-called shrewd mind of a businessman is like this, and after some economic calculations, the two men made a deal.

So, in this way, Talos, without knowing what was happening, his owner and the store manager had already hit it off, negotiated the terms of employment and the working hours.

-

At this time, a high-class residential area on the edge of the city. Several armed puppets stood guard at the door, and inside, servants dressed in black and white maid costumes walked by.

As soon as Chi took off his cloak and threw it out, someone on the side caught it accurately, and handed it over to another servant to wash and iron.

"Young Master, why did you come back so early today." A butler-like man asked as he handed over a change of home clothes and served a change of clothes.

"Did you find out the reason for the failure of the things that you asked you to do before?" Ji Yi changed his clothes and straightened the buttons on his chest in front of the mirror.

Chi Yi in front of the mirror is full of juvenile feeling, and he already has a somewhat lazy appearance, but after changing into home clothes, he has a more scattered and casual atmosphere.

He sat on the couch next to him, grabbed the computer in his hand, and tapped on the keyboard with both hands.

"It's the young master, according to the report, the failure of the matter is because there are somehow more armed puppets around her who are in the way, and ......"

Before the butler could finish speaking, Chi Yi raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?"

"You told you not to disturb when you were there, that's why you ......"

In fact, this is not new information, Chi Yi didn't care very much, after all, as early as the moment he saw Talos today, he had already thought that the recent series of events must be inseparable from this interesting puppet.

It's just that his origin ......

Chi Yi's fingers tapped irregularly on the table, as if waiting for something.

Finally, the computer came back with the email he had been waiting for.

On the white mail sign is a reddish-brown circular stamp, which belongs to a hidden family. Outsiders rarely see or understand it.

The email is about Ye Rinrin's recent public actions, as well as the flow and information of armed dolls on the market in recent years.

On the whole, there are no doubts and problems, but Ye Rinrin's whereabouts on the day of the Ling Detection are displayed as blank. She didn't ask for leave, and she didn't make a clear record of where she went that day, so she was hastily named late and disqualified from the spiritual test.

It didn't take long for her to make a contract with an armed puppet.

Chi Yi's hand rested on his chin, and he looked at these messages that were not obviously related, but could be connected, and fell into deep thought.

Where did this doll, named Talos, come from?

The lot number is not available, and the only possibility is that Talos was left by the original puppeteer to his daughter in case of emergency.

That's why there is no record, and I can't find any of his information for the record.

When you think about it, it seems that everything makes sense.

Chi Yi closed the computer, leaned back on the sofa, and stretched comfortably. "Eh, in that case, then I'll play with you."

As he spoke, he grabbed the pillow on the side casually, buried his head in it and rubbed it comfortably.

The next day, the Cloud Hidden Association.

Rin had just stepped into the gate of the association with one foot, and Chi Yi saw her from afar. Then he walked all the way from the front desk, ran a few steps like a little rabbit, put his arms around Rin Rin's neck, and said with a very intimate look, "Good morning Miss Ye, I'm not late today!" ”

If someone who doesn't know how to love sees this scene, they will definitely think that the relationship between the two is very good.

But if you get closer, you can hear it, but Chi Yi's tone is obviously unfamiliar.

Originally, she was in a pretty good mood, but when she heard the word 'late', the green tendons on her forehead still jumped uncontrollably.

"I'm sorry Mr. Chi, I was only late for that day. Also, could you please let go of your hand and let me in? Rin Rin suppressed her anger and said in her heart, this kid from the Ikeme family, absolutely, definitely came to block her and find trouble.

But hearing this, Chi Yi suddenly laughed out loud.

"Miss Ye is really good. But I have to say, my surname is Ikeme, and one is my name. If you don't mind, just call me Chiichi. ”

As he spoke, his hand didn't mean to let go, but his eyes kept roaming around Rin Rin, as if he was looking for something.

Rin saw through his intentions at a glance, and immediately said, "Don't look for it, Talos didn't come today, he has other things to do." ”

"yes, that's a shame." Ji Yi looked disappointed, as if he was looking forward to seeing Talos.

But this frustration didn't last long, almost in the next second, his words turned, and his eyes suddenly locked on Rinrin, "Since he is not here, does that mean that I can do something with Miss Ye?" ”
