Su Que's working career in the miscellaneous department
The iron elevator doors slowly opened, and from the upper floors a few more people came, starting with several men in red cloaks embroidered with silver thread, their shoes shining with oil.
They sat on a table in the antechamber, and a taller, lower-looking man took a loudspeaker and began to shout:
"Come on, come on—all over here—everyone line up—don't crowd—work is going to be assigned—"
The crowd began to surge, slowly lining up in a few rows in front of those people, Su Que casually chose a row and lined up, she tilted her head slightly, and looked forward by gathering people's heads.
The people at the front desk talked to each other, and took out a box of red seals and a wad of paper from a drawer at the back of the stage.
The noisy crowd began to flow, and the people in front of them worked very quickly, almost one second, and most of them walked in a moment.
The man who had finished printing took his piece of paper and walked to a corridor in the hall, his figure disappearing in the dark shadows.
Su Que moved to the front desk little by little according to the pace of the team, and after the people in front of her were done, it was her turn.
The man at the front desk looked up and glanced at her, his eyes sweeping over her bare red jacket:
"Where's your sign?"
Su Que's heart tightened, and her fists clenched involuntarily, but her face was calm - she followed the example of 009 and pretended his ancient water Wubo to be eight or nine:
"Just dropped."
The man frowned, obviously not very satisfied with this vague answer, he was about to open his mouth to ask again, but the person next to him looked at his face, and before he was displeased, he bent down and whispered a few words at the right time, and his expression was mostly flattering:
"My lord, that's the case, she ...... just now"
The man's brows gradually relaxed, and his complexion improved a lot, but one of his eyebrows was raised high, as if he was quite surprised:
"I see."
Su Que knew that he was probably telling him about his escape, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
When the people behind saw that the front was slow to leave, they frequently looked over, and someone in the crowd began to discuss in a whisper.
The man didn't want Su Que to slow down his work, so he took a piece of paper, took out a seal from the seal box casually, and hastily printed it:
"Hmm...... So be it. ”
The bright red seal is printed on the yellow paper of indistinguishable material, and the outline is a little blurry, but it is also very eye-catching:
Department of Miscellaneous Labor.
The man next to him looked at the words on the seal, bowed down and whispered in the man's ear:
"Isn't it overkill to put her in the Miscellaneous Division? After all, she's a guy in a jacket and has good qualifications. ”
The man glanced at him and grinned helplessly:
"I know, but the Miscellaneous Ministry also has to have two people with similar qualifications, otherwise the difficult minister of the Miscellaneous Ministry will not be happy."
He paused, as if hesitating about something, but continued:
"Besides, this little girl is quite brave if she dares to run down, anyway, she will suffer from it, it is better to work in the miscellaneous labor department, and stay for a few decades to be a senior executive, and she can have some vitality."
The person next to him frowned, as if he disagreed, but seeing that the person was already impatient, he also knew how to restrain his words and put on a flattering look.
Su Que heard what they were talking about, but he didn't know what this department was doing in the comfort company, so he quietly took the paper and walked to the side of the passage.
The passage was dim, a little cool because there was no sunlight, and it was closed, except for a few candles nailed to the innermost wall.
The transparent wax slipped from the candle and solidified into a falling shape on the candlestick, illuminating the passage with a faint glow.
Su Que walked past the candlestick, and on the innermost ground there were some patterns drawn with chalk of different colors, like things like formations, and seven or eight were drawn crookedly.
At this time, this crowded tunnel was crowded with people, and there were nearly ten people in red cloaks standing on each formation, and there were still people waiting in line.
Su Que searched for a long time before finding the passage of the miscellaneous service department from the dim passage, which was a formation drawn with white chalk, some of the powder ash had been dispersed, and the whole formation seemed vague, making people wonder if it could still be used.
At the very end of the passage stood a young man of about thirty, with a short beard on his chin, wearing a short white jacket with a sign of the Miscellaneous Servants Department pinned to the top, and had been leaning there lazily directing the newcomers to ride the formation.
Because the formation of the miscellaneous service department has been rarely used, seeing that Su Que is coming, he slowly raised his eyelids:
"New to our ministry?"
Su Que swept his sign and nodded.
The man opened his eyes and looked her up and down, and when he saw that she was wearing a red jacket, he patted her shoulder with satisfaction:
"Good man, do a good job, I won't treat you badly, then, go in, I won't send you if I have something to do."
Su Que looked at the formation, and although it was really not good-looking, he still believed his words and stood in.
As soon as she stood still, some light seeped out of the white chalk, Su Que suddenly felt dizzy, her body began to move quickly as if it was blown by the wind, and the voice next to her ears suddenly changed from silence to hustle, and before she could stand firm on her soft legs, she heard a woman next to her shouting:
"This is the Miscellaneous Servants...... Well...... What did you say? …… Our minister is not here...... Yes...... Then let's send two people to take a look. ”
The woman looked around, just in time to see Su Que coming out of the teleportation array.
She pointed impatiently at Su Que and the other two:
"Just a few of you...... There's something going on in the back kitchen again, so go over and take a look. ”
One of the other two people who was pointed out together seemed to be a veteran of the miscellaneous labor department for many years, and he carefully observed the woman's expression and asked cautiously:
"Deputy Minister, is it another matter of food escape from the back kitchen? Isn't that the matter from the Ministry of Guards? ”
When the woman heard this, her mood became more and more irritable, and she said a little angrily:
"Who knows what kind of wind they smoke this time, they will find miscellaneous servants for everything, and the people in other departments will die!"
"Forget it, you guys don't care, just go there and have a look, or you can come back with a formality if you have nothing to do."
Those people glanced at each other a few times, and only agreed, and walked towards the outside of the hall, and Su Que, as a novice, also hurriedly followed them towards the outside of the hall.
From afar, I heard those people talking in front of me.
"It's a matter of the back kitchen, I don't want to go anywhere."
A young woman protested.
"As anyone thinks, there are some poor people there, tsk, the methods of the kitchen can be very bloody."
The middle-aged man next to him continued.
"Forget it, we won't be going for long, let's sneak around and come back."
A companion behind him urged, and the men quickened their pace.
