Chapter 9: Midnight Rose
Awakening Event - Horizon Deprivation!
An Ying's big hand slapped heavily against the table, this would be his first mission to join the Mindfulness Alliance.
Uncle Chen Qing was a little surprised to see An Ying choose the deprivation of vision with a danger level of A.
He paused and said, "This A-level incident is not particularly easy to do, I suggest that you choose a C-level misfire misfirer to practice first." ”
"No need, just deprive yourself of this horizon!" An Ying looked at Uncle Chen Qing with a firm attitude to show his determination.
Meeting An Ying's gaze, Uncle Chen Qing smiled slightly: "Since you have already decided, then it's it, I will arrange someone to prepare a ticket for you to fly to Zhanxing City at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, and remember to bring the relevant documents when you take the plane tomorrow." ”
An Ying just wanted to agree, but he immediately realized that something was wrong: "Just me?" ”
"You're alone."
"Uncle, aren't you going with you?" The corners of An Ying's mouth twitched slightly, he didn't expect to let him go alone.
Chen Qing replied with a smile: "No, I'm responsible for staying at the headquarters, remember, the main task of your trip this time is to find the Mind-Aware who deprives the Vision, if he doesn't make any big mistakes, I hope you can absorb him into our Mind-Aware Alliance and expand our membership." ”
Sure that he was alone, An Ying sighed helplessly: "I know, uncle, go to Zhanxing City to carry out a mission, where I will eat, wear, live and travel, I can't pay out of my own pocket, right?" ”
Chen Qing knew that An Ying's kid would ask this, so he took out a purple-black card prepared in advance and handed it to An Ying: "This is the Starlink Purple Card of the Official Nebula Bank of the United Council, which contains 100,000 Star Coins, which is definitely enough for you to inquire about information and food and accommodation during this time in Zhanxing City!" ”
An Ying unceremoniously accepted the Starlink Purple Card, and a smile finally appeared on her face: "Uncle, what else do I need to do next?" ”
"Go home and have a good rest, just get up early tomorrow and go to Star City, I told you before, joining the Awakened Alliance has plenty of personal time."
Chen Qing smiled and waved his hand, signaling An Ying to go home and rest at ease, and it was the right thing to go to Zhanxing City tomorrow to find clues to "vision deprivation".
Since the uncle said so, An Ying was not hypocritical, and after chatting with the uncle a few more words, he left the office building of the Mindful Alliance.
……
In the evening, when she returned to her door, An Ying just wanted to open the door when she saw Lin Jiuxin, who was wearing sandals, walking out of the next door with a black garbage bag.
Lin Jiuxin also noticed him, and greeted An Ying with a warm smile on her pretty face: "Brother An Ying, why did you get off work so early today?" ”
"Sister Jiuxin, I resigned." An Ying didn't think too much about it, and replied truthfully.
Hearing that An Ying had resigned, Lin Jiuxin's willow eyebrows frowned slightly: "Resigned?" You come into my room and sit for a while, I'll take out the garbage, and tell me why you're quitting! ”
After speaking, without waiting for An Ying to respond, Lin Jiuxin carried the bag to the safety exit of the aisle to take out the garbage.
An Ying was a little confused, he just resigned and changed jobs, did Lin Jiuxin react so much?
Lin Jiuxin came back and found An Ying still stunned at the door, and immediately pushed him into her house.
Sitting on the sofa, she was also concerned: "Brother An Ying, tell my sister, have you encountered any difficulties in the company?" After working for a year, how can you say that you quit your job and resigned? ”
Turns out she's worried about this! An Ying, who figured it out, replied with a smile: "I didn't encounter any difficulties, I just found a job with better pay." ”
When Lin Jiuxin heard this, she stroked her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, she just thought that An Ying had resigned without finding a new job.
After adjusting her mentality, Lin Jiuxin didn't ask An Ying what kind of job she did, but slapped her hands in front of her, and proposed with a smile: "To celebrate that you have found a better job, I will have a meal at my sister's place tonight, and I will make you something to eat!" ”
"Isn't that okay? I'm always rubbing rice with you, I'm embarrassed......" An Ying thought that he had often rubbed Lin Jiuxin's sister next door over the years, and he was a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, I'm bored by myself, it's good to have someone to eat and chat with, you watch TV for a while, I'll go to the kitchen and get ready to eat!"
As soon as the words fell, Lin Jiuxin left An Ying in a cheerful tone and walked into the kitchen and began to prepare a sumptuous meal tonight.
An Ying was a little bored sitting in the living room alone, and when he saw a book next to him, he picked it up and opened it, intending to pass the time.
Who wants to open the book, and a photo slips on his lap from it.
When he picked up the photo, he saw a warm scene of a pair of sisters and brothers smiling at the camera.
The elder sister is undoubtedly Lin Jiuxin when she was a teenage girl, and the younger brother who is very similar to her sister's facial features is eight or nine years old.
Just by looking at the photos, it can be seen that the sister and brother have a very close relationship and envy others.
It's just that......
Why did he never hear Lin Jiuxin mention that she had a younger brother? And in his impression, he had never seen Lin Jiuxin bring someone younger than her home for so many years.
After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't figure it out, but An Ying fortunately didn't think about it anymore. He didn't plan to wait to ask Lin Jiuxin if the boy in this photo was her younger brother, because he felt that such a question would cause Lin Jiuxin's disgust.
Carefully sandwiching the photo back in the pages of the book and putting it back in its original position, An Ying turned on the TV at Lin Jiuxin's house and changed the way to pass the time.
……
After spending a pleasant dinner time with her gentle and considerate sister next door, and taking a walk in the community for a while, An Ying returned to her home satisfied.
Lying on his back on the soft big bed in the bedroom, he was just about to fall asleep and get up early tomorrow to take a plane to Zhanxing City, when he heard the sound of someone knocking on the glass window.
He sat up in confusion, lifted the curtains, and a grimace pressed against the window door came into his sight.
Hell!
An Ying was really taken aback, and her body subconsciously took a few steps back.
It wasn't until the oozing grimace floated in mid-air and swept into the distance that he relented.
Remembering that he was now the one who had opened the mind of the end of the consciousness, he felt that his reaction just now was a bit embarrassing.
Looking at the back of his head at the grimace that had not completely disappeared from view, he hesitated and took the elevator downstairs.
An eerie aura permeated the community, and An Ying stimulated his sixth sense consciousness to the extreme, tracking the breath of the grimace remaining in the community with his keen perception.
Tracing all the way out of the community, An Ying walked on the winding path, and the creepy cold aura was also getting stronger and stronger.
"Join Midnight Rose or die!"
As a murderous voice came from ahead, An Ying took a deep breath and slowed down his pace to quietly approach.
Hiding in the shadows, he saw that the scaring grimace he had previously had been stopped by a man in a suit with a rose in his hand.
It's a Dream Eater! He recognized the man in the suit as the Dream Eater he had met on the road the other day.
How did the Dream Eater end up here? What is the origin of that grimace?
Many questions arose in An Ying's heart, and he hid in the shadows and quietly observed the two of them.
"What if I say no?" Grimace let out a ghostly laugh, not at all afraid of the Dream Eater.
"I just answered, either join Midnight Rose or die!"
The Dream Eater's reply, which did not leave any way out for Grimace, also provoked Grimace to sneer: "I admit that you are very strong, but you can't kill me, I'll go first!" ”
The next moment, Grimace's body gradually faded, and he disappeared in place before the Dream Eater could make a move.
Looking at the place where the grimace disappeared, the Dream Eater snorted coldly and disappeared into the darkness in a few flashes.
And An Ying, who was hiding in the shadows, silently wrote down the Midnight Rose mentioned by the Dream Eater, as well as the mysterious grimace that scared him, and when he went back, he told his uncle what happened tonight, and I believe that the uncle would be very interested.
