Chapter 5: Sunrise in the East, which one is undefeated?
The next moment.
A few small claws came out of the narrow gap between the lid and the body of Newt's chest, and the lock that reached for the box desperately tried to get it.
Mary? Lou's three adopted children are handing out flyers: Credence and Lilith, who are now adults, Castilli, who is a teenager, and Modesty, a little girl who is eight years old.
Credence looked annoyed and uneasy, his head bowed slightly.
The boy looked a little odd, with thick black hair on top of his head, an unnatural expression, and not very good-looking, but he had beautiful blue eyes that were almost exactly as special as Gerald's.
"We must fight together, for our children and grandchildren – for our tomorrow!" Mary? Lou said loudly to the group, then turned to Newt, "What do you say, friend?" ”
Newt looked up at Mary? Lu, with a blank expression on his face, didn't know how to get rid of it. What he saw out of the corner of his eye caught his attention.
Sniff, a dark, furry creature somewhere between a mole and a platypus, is sitting on the bank steps and busily dragging the beggar's broken hat full of petty money behind a pillar.
Newt was taken aback and looked down at his box.
Sniff was busy pulling the beggar's coins into a pocket on its stomach. Sniffing looked up, noticed Newt's gaze, quickly put away the remaining coins, and fled into the bank with a flip.
"Sorry, I missed you." Newt didn't care about pulling his legs and chased after him, and he also wore a little more out of the crowd to follow Newt, and finally glanced back at Credence.
Mary? Lou saw that Newt was not interested in her career and looked puzzled.
"The wizards are among us!" She repeated aloud to the crowd.
And just as his voice fell.
In a corner on the side.
A short-haired woman in a gray hat suddenly hurriedly slipped the newspaper in her pocket and quickly ran towards where Newt had disappeared.
"What a cute little guy!"
At the entrance of the bank.
Ye Qiong threw the extra few coins in his hand into the broken basin of the beggar in front of him again, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
It was a British animal that could dig into the ground. This animal is covered with black fuzz all over its body, has a long snout, and has a special preference for everything that is shiny.
Although these magical creatures are gentle and even warm to you, they can be extremely damaging to your belongings, so don't keep them at home.
They generally live in their own nests, usually twenty feet underground, and give birth to six to eight cubs in a litter, well...... It's not an endangered magical creature.
"Little brother, I have opened the door of love for you, and the rest depends on you!"
Glancing at the rather neutral dress that followed closely behind Newt, it seemed to be a woman named Tina, Ye Qiong couldn't help muttering in her heart.
In fact, speaking of which, Ye Qiong was still depressed in her heart.
The task assigned to him by the system had already been triggered, but the content of this task really made him wonder.
What does it mean to live in this world for a hundred years?
Moreover, other than that, there is not a single side quest that only requires him to live for a hundred years.
Isn't this holding him alive in this world!!
The copy world is a hundred years, and the real world is a hundred days, a full three months!!
Sighing slightly, Ye Qiong immediately turned around and left.
In order to make his usual boring life more interesting, he can only make a mess of the world!!
What is that sentence called, the sun rises in the east, only which one is undefeated!!
……
"Do you need help, sir?"
In the glorious hallway, a bank employee looked at Newt with a hint of suspicion.
"Oh no, I'm just..... just ..... waiting for someone....." Newt stumbled, gesturing to a bench, took a few steps back and sat down, and the employee walked away without further questioning. Jacob was also sitting there.
The short-haired woman, Tina, peered out at Newt from behind the pillar.
"Hi. What business are you here to do? Jacob said with a friendly smile, a little fidgeting and obviously a little nervous.
"More ..... like you" Newt was anxious to find his sniff and said absent-mindedly.
"You're here to take out a loan to open a bakery?" Jacob asked, surprised.
"Yes." Newt looked around, but there was no sign of Sniff, and even his partner Gerald didn't know where he had gone.
"It can't be that coincidental, right? Well, the strong ones will win, hopefully. Jacob said to himself.
Newt finally spotted Sniff, who was stealing coins from a man's bag without the man noticing.
"Let's get acquainted." Jacob held out his hand, but Newt had already quickly gotten up and left, "Sorry, I was unaccompanied,"
Newt pulled away, and on the bench lay a large, speckled silver egg.
"Hey, sir! You're missing something! Hey sir! Jacob said to Newt, but Newt didn't hear him, he was bent on finding the mischievous sniffer.
Jacob looked at the big egg suspiciously, picked it up, and stuffed it into his pocket. I thought that if I met the gentleman, I could return it to him personally, and if I didn't, I would give it to the bank employee.
"Which one is Mr. Jacob!"
That's when it happened.
The door to the bank manager's office opened, and a secretary looked out to see Jacob sitting on a bench and saying mechanically, "Mr. Kowalski, Mr. Bingley wants to see you now." ”
"Okay..... okay." Jacob straightened his collar and pulled himself together as he walked towards the office.
Facing Mr. Bentley, who is in a suit and leather shoes, and has a majestic demeanor.
Jacob swallowed hard.
Mr. Bentley is looking at Jacob's proposal to open a bakery. He turned to the second page, where Jacob's decoration templates were designed in a simple classical European style.
There was an unsettling silence.
The ticking of bells and the muttering of Mr. Bingley tormented every nerve in Jacob's brain.
Jacob looked down at his pocket and swallowed—the egg began to shake slightly, and it made a low hum from some animal, but fortunately only he could hear it.
"You currently work at ..... cannery?" Mr. Bingley finally broke the silence.
"It's the best at the moment, I only came back in 1924." Jacob said.
"Come back?" Mr. Bentley said.
"Coming back from Europe, sir. yes - a soldier in the American Expeditionary Force. Jacob was visibly nervous, and spoke of the "expeditionary force" simulating excavations, hoping in vain that a joke would help him in his application.
