Chapter 3 Is the Awakened Ability Mind Reading?

Following.

As a ray of sunlight reflected on my face, I slowly opened my eyes and sat up in a daze, clutching my still sore head.

After ten seconds of delay, what happened in the dream last night kept pouring out.

If I'm not wrong, I'd be a ...... by now Fish Spirit Master.

Not only did he have to bear this unpleasant name, but he also had to face a group of so-called soul animal attacks.

Actually, I don't think it's necessary to make things so complicated, even if animals have the same consciousness as humans, what can they do?

Animals are animals, no matter how powerful they are, how powerful can they be? Mobility is never as convenient as a human being, and physical strength is not as good as a human being.

Humans can walk standing up, can fish?

Could it be that a fish can slap a dead person with its tail?

Well, saying all this seems to be just a show of how smart I am, because I'm a non-assertive person who doesn't do things the way I think.

The sturgeon said that I would not live for five days, and his tone was very serious. It is better to believe in such things than to believe them in nothing.

As it happens, I was also looking for a job, and working in a fish restaurant seemed like a good proposition.

However, you can only kill fish...... It seems a little too embarrassing.

I don't understand why the sturgeon would make me ram at gunpoint. Shouldn't you try to avoid places with fish during this time?

Take the initiative to run to kill the fish, provoke resentment, and always feel that I will die sooner.

Also, I don't know how to kill fish at all, will there be fish restaurants willing to take me?

Alas, forget it, anyway, I don't know what the fish spirit master industry should do, so I'll do it according to the sturgeon's arrangement for the time being.

After all, he has merged with my spirit body, and there is no reason to harm me, unless it wants to die.

I got out of bed, went into the bathroom, and washed my face. Go back and eat the cold dishes that I packed back last night for breakfast.

After eating, I cleaned up the room, changed into a decent and not luxurious outfit, and went out to the barber shop with my mobile phone for a haircut.

With everything ready, I set off for my destination.

Since it's the kind of job that you have to kill fish all day long, of course, you have to find the best store to apply for.

The fish restaurant with a good business has to mention the Shunshui Fish Restaurant, which is the best fish restaurant in the vicinity, from morning to night, the business is endless, and it is rare to be idle every day.

As long as the application is successful, there is no fear that there will be no fish to kill.

But I remembered that my purpose was not to kill fish, but to live.

Walking on the way to the Shunshui Fish Restaurant, I suddenly remembered what the sturgeon said last night - the contractor will awaken the ability that he is good at.

I'm also a contractor, and it stands to reason that I should have the ability to awaken as well.

What are you good at?

I thought about it carefully, but I couldn't think of anything I was good at, and if I had to say one thing, it was playing with my phone.

However, playing with mobile phones is not considered an ability, right!?

Otherwise, because I don't have the ability to be good at it, I don't give awakening?

No, no, no, I won't let this happen, I finally have the opportunity to experience what it's like to be a superpower, how can I do this to me.

The matter of ability is put aside for the time being, and now that I have come to the store of Shunshui Fish Restaurant, I can go upstairs to apply for a job.

I'm starting to get a little nervous, the store should still be open now, is it appropriate to apply now?

Although my heart was tangled, my steps had already stepped up the stairs.

"Good morning and welcome!" The two greeting attendants at the door greeted with a faint smile.

I peeked through the glass door, and there were not many guests.

Think about it, no one usually eats hot pot in the morning, and most of them come to eat at noon and evening.

The greeter kindly asked, "Sir, is there anything you need help with?" ”

Very good, now is a good time to apply, I quickly responded: "That...... Can I still have an interview now? ”

The greeter was a little surprised, and asked confirmatively, "Are you here to apply?" ”

I nodded politely and said, "Yes, I'm here to apply for the back kitchen, are you still recruiting employees?" ”

The waiter hesitated for a moment and said, "Then you wait a minute, I'll go to the office and ask the manager if he needs to recruit people." ”

"I'm in trouble." I was nervous.

Before leaving, the greeting waiter shook his head politely and said, "Don't bother, you can sit inside first!" ”

I walked into the fish house, chose a table at the door, sat down, and waited for the good news.

The waiter didn't make me wait long, and soon brought a middle-aged man with glasses and a fierce face, a very serious suit, who seemed to be the manager of the store.

I hurriedly stood up and said solemnly: "Hello, my name is Luo Xiaohao, and I am here to apply." ”

"Sit down", the middle-aged man sat down first, and then raised his hand to signal me to sit across from him.

Looking at it this way, the recruitment thing is probably a drama. I sat across from him, staring at him, waiting for his questioning.

However, after waiting for a while and not seeing him ask, I gradually couldn't suppress the tension in my heart, and a layer of sweat oozed from my forehead.

What's going on? What is this? Shouldn't the application be a quick decision? Is staring intently at the candidate a measure of the candidate's guts?

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard the manager's voice.

"This kid is very thin and weak, can he wield a knife?"

Not good, the manager is questioning my abilities. I immediately argued for myself: "I will work hard, please believe me, no one will have some kind of survival skill from the beginning, and the more you swing the knife, you will naturally learn...... Yes......"

Halfway through the conversation, I felt that something was wrong, and the manager looked at me with an inexplicable look.

It's not just him, I'm also confused, can't I defend myself?

"Does this person know what's going on in my mind? Or is it ...... Does he have a mental disorder or something?"

"No, I don't have mental disorders or anything like that." I slapped the table and defended myself loudly, saying that no one could be happy to be treated as mentally ill.

But after shouting, I realized that the manager's mouth was ...... Just now, it didn't seem to have opened.

No way, how can he speak without opening his mouth, I did hear the manager's voice just now, is it ventriloquism?

I'm afraid I'm crazy when I think of ventriloquism, how can anyone use ventriloquism when applying for a job.

"This person doesn't look normal at all, so don't use him, appease him first, and then politely refuse."

Again, the manager's voice sounded in my head again, but he clearly didn't open his mouth, and this time I could see it clearly, he was sitting there with a straight face the whole time.

My scalp began to tingle, my cold hairs stood on end, and my bones were creepy, this supernatural phenomenon, could it be...... The guys the sturgeon said came to the door?

"Calm down, sit down and have a cup of tea." The manager got up and reassured, this time he really opened his mouth.

The manager's performance reminded me of the phrase just now, "first appease him, then politely refuse", just like the voice just said, the manager was calming my emotions.

Wait, I remember the sturgeon seems to have said that every "spirit master" will awaken an ability that he is good at, but my awakened ability is ...... Mind reading?

Mind reading, as the name suggests, is a technique that allows you to spy on what is going on in the minds of others.

Can I hear what's going on in other people's hearts? This also ...... Great! This ability is tailor-made for me!

To be honest, I don't like the ability to fight and kill, because it's dangerous, and I can't save the world and become a hero on my own.

Instead of fighting on the battlefield, it is better to enjoy the glory behind the scenes. The real hero is left to others to play, as the saying goes, only the villain is difficult, then I will take this difficult responsibility.

After the excitement, I quickly calmed down, and the joy of knowing my ability was put aside for a while, and now I should find a way to deal with the manager in front of me, according to the development of the mind reading steal, and then this manager will give me an eviction order, which is not the result I want.

"I'm sorry, but I was too nervous," I reined in my nervous reaction to the outsider's eyes, bowing respectfully and pleading, "Anyway, please try me for a week." ”

The manager looked stunned and asked, "Why do you want to do this?" ”

"Because I was desperate, I was running out of money, and the rented rooms in the hotel were almost due, so I had nowhere to go except to look for a job.

I have learned that the staff condition of Shunshui Fish Restaurant is to eat and live, and it is precisely because of this that I came to apply. During this one-week probationary period, I don't have to be paid any salary, as long as I eat and live. ”

I'm very honest about my current situation, and I can only play pitiful cards to strangers. Normal people will have compassion and will help the sympathetic within their ability.

The manager looked hesitant and didn't seem to be mentally active, because I didn't hear the unprovoked voice just now.

"Look at this body, you will definitely not be able to do the kitchen work."

I heard it, I heard the manager's mental activities again, and I understood the manager's worries, and it was easy to deal with them.

"To tell you the truth, I came to apply for a job of killing fish in the back kitchen this time, and I hope you can give me a chance."

I quickly explained my intentions and didn't let the manager think about it anymore.

This time, the manager stared at me for a full three minutes, and surprisingly there was no mental activity, and I couldn't help but wonder if the manager was a human being. Normal people will have mental activities in such a tense atmosphere, right!?

Fortunately, in the end, the response given by the manager was satisfactory, and he agreed to let me join Shunshui Fish Restaurant for a one-week probationary period.

That night, I moved from my hotel to the men's dormitory at Shunshui Fish Restaurant, and started working the next morning.

In order to pass the one-week probationary period, I worked hard to perform and study, and I had never held a knife before, so I suffered a lot from it, and I often saw blood, and I couldn't count the scars on my fingers.

My seemingly smooth daily life has officially begun!
