"There's an extra job today that you need to do. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Extra work?"

Qin En felt a little strange.

In the Sunflower Shop, there have always been no customers coming to the door, so Qin En, as an employee, has always been very, very idle, most of the time Qin En is a small errand for the wind and fragrance, and almost never sees anyone come in to buy flowers.

Even Qin En was wondering: Is there no one in this store who comes in to buy things at all?

"Great, I have a job. ”

This is not to say that Qin En is the kind of workaholic, nor is it that he is the kind of person who is idle and has nothing to do for himself.

It's good to be idle, but the business that has been losing money will definitely not last, and the boss's lavish salary is certainly happy to get it, but if the store closes in a few days, he has to go to sleep on the street, which is something that Qin En does not want to see.

Such a beautiful and idle work, Qin En sincerely hopes that it can operate for a long time.

"This is a potted plant that my friend wanted, so send her over well. ”

"No problem. ”

Looking at the boss like this, his job should be to deliver flowers to the door. Qin En, who doesn't know flowers, can't name it, but when he looks at it, he feels that the potted plant in his hand is not ordinary, and there is a feeling of high-end foreign atmosphere.

Well...... The bonsai is not heavy, it is not heavy, and it does not take much effort to hold it in your hand, and if the distance is close, there is no pressure to take it all the way.

"Well, that's right! Qin Jun, do you know how to drive?"

"Driving, yes, what's wrong?"

"Since you know how to drive, then don't take it and go, it's very difficult...... Here's for you—"

Feng saw that Yuxiang then threw something over, and Qin En instinctively went to follow, but it turned out to be a key, which made him stunned for a long time.

"Hmm, what's wrong? ”

"No...... It's just a bit of a disobedience, this key is a car key, right? A monster gave me the car key......

I always feel a little weird, full of disobedience, normally the monster should be the kind of monster that drinks blood and has a head of 108,000 miles? Why do you use such a simple thing?

"There's no saying in this world that youkai can't buy cars. ”

In this way, Qin En took the car keys and came to the backyard of the sunflower shop...... As a result, we saw -

Truck.

The blue truck, a very modern pickup truck, has some dirt that has not been swept away, and it seems that this is a means of transportation that is usually used to carry flowers and potted plants.

Wait, Qin En's mind suddenly appeared in the picture of Kazami Yuka wearing bright and gorgeous clothes, getting into this truck, and then carrying a pile of potted plant soil to and from the world, and then carrying them in the store one by one.

"Poofhahahaha!"

No, my stomach hurts to death!

Qin En is dying of laughter, this truck is completely inconsistent with the image of Feng Jianxiang! Such a beautiful beauty actually drives this kind of broken truck that only middle-aged uncles can drive...... It's funny!

"It's just hilarious, and the logistics driver is so good...... Wow!!!"

Suddenly, a bad chill surged into his heart, and an inexplicable cold crawled all over his back, and a certain sight from behind stung Qin En, who was squatting on the ground and laughing.

When Qin En turned his head to look at the place where the pressure was released, he saw the wind and fragrance standing in the room, smiling at him through the window.

It's really strange, obviously the nose is the nose, the mouth is still the mouth, and there is no change,...... It was all an ordinary expression, and he was still smiling kindly, but why did Qin En suddenly feel so scary?

"............" Kazami Yuka waved his hand through the window.

"Hmm!" but this made Qin En unable to breathe, and he somewhat understood what it was like.

Also, don't laugh, your life counts......

Qin En put the potted plant in the back door of the car, and then looked at the label attached to it: it said where it was to be delivered. Go straight (west) from the path that connects to Hito-no-Sato in the Lost Bamboo Forest - it says so, and the recipient is Fujiwara Meihong.

This Fujiwara Meihong should be the boss's friend, right? But when I continued to read the text, I found a red rune paper stuffed by the boss on the side of the flower pot.

Must bring!

The big red characters are shocking, reminiscent of the font painted with human blood in ghost stories, which is a bit scary. Qin En has always been the kind of person who is good (nothing) as (standing) and flowing (field) from (nothing) to (li) and always improves his shortcomings when he hears good advice from others. After all...... In Gensokyo, where he didn't know anything, he would definitely survive if he did what his predecessors said, so Qin En obediently stuffed it into the pocket of his jacket.

The truck engine started, and Qin En, who was sitting in the driver's seat, was a little embarrassed, and he ...... Monster...... At this time, he was so far away from himself, but fortunately, this kind of sigh was only for a short moment, and he was not deceived by this feeling.

This is Gensokyo, and I'm just driving in Gensokyo, and there's nothing to be emotionally charged with - I can't help but sigh like this.

It's a little unfamiliar when your hand touches the steering wheel, but it's more of a subconscious skill. It seems that there is no problem at all, this strangeness should just be the kind of unaccustomed strangeness, and most programs still know how to do it. Haven't you ever eaten pork and seen a pig run?

In this way, Qin En drove the truck slowly out of the backyard of the Sunflower Shop, and turned along the road to the road in the world...... It seems that civilization is backward, but most of the residents look at themselves with no strange eyes, and their mental outlook is still good, unlike the hillbillies who are surprised to see anything, so it can be seen that the backwardness here is just a look, and most of the people are well-informed - at least the truck thing people still know what's going on, but it's just a little rare, and it can't scare others.

Qin En also knows the location of the Lost Bamboo Forest, the direction of the west, this hint is already obvious, basically you can go to it by turning a few crooked roads.

In the human world, when he drove once, Qin En found that this place was still very big, and he was a little glad that Feng saw that Youxiang had a car...... If you really carry a flower pot, the journey will be a little difficult. In the end, he is just a little white face who can't pick his shoulders and can't lift his hands, although the nutrition absorption is good, but the gap between him and people who often work is still very big, just like those mountain pickers in the tourist mountains, who seem to be skinny, but in fact they are much more powerful than the fat boys who eat.

Get off the bus and take the lost bamboo forest...... By the way, the truck was locked, and Qin En came to the passage connecting the Lost Bamboo Forest and Renzhili, and the direction was also accurate. There are basically not many people here, and it seems to belong to the border area completely, most of the residential houses are empty, and there are also a lot of vacant lots nearby, as if they are specifically for something...... There are some greasy traces on the ground, so it seems that there should be itinerant vendors selling late-night snacks in this place at night, right?

Just glanced at Qin En a few times and didn't care, he took the potted plant and came to the bamboo forest, a little uneasy. The bamboo forest in front of him was filled with fog...... As far as the eye can see, it's only a few hundred meters, and it's easy to get lost.

Thankfully, the roads are straight, and it's obvious that these roads are paved with some tools, so as long as you don't walk around where there are no roads, you shouldn't get lost, right?

Thinking like this, Qin En had already walked a long distance, and the things behind him were completely unclear, and just when he was thinking about when it was the end, he heard a very rhythmic voice.

When he got closer, he saw a small bamboo house, made of many bamboo and wooden planks, and the cobblestone road spread out in front of him.

The building is very rustic, but the fence seems a little perfunctory...... This kind of low fence can only hold back the chickens, ducks and geese that are cooing in the yard.

Pop, the sound of breaking became clearer, and when Qin En approached the fence, he saw the back of a young girl, who was holding an axe in both hands, chopping firewood.

The first thing that caught the eye was the exaggerated long white hair, although her height was a little short compared to Qin En, but it was also more than one meter and six, and the long hair almost dragged to the ground, which was still tied in a ponytail...... If the ponytail is spread out, the hair will probably be even more exaggerated.

Rattle, the firewood snapped, and perhaps because of her work, she rolled up her trouser legs and sleeves, revealing her hands and feet, which were no different from ordinary girls, fair and slender...... It doesn't look like a girl who should do this kind of wood-chopping work.

"Finally finished splitting ......"

Qin En watched it for a long time, and before she knew it, the girl had approved the firewood, and even the big axe that Qin En had to consider when she picked it up was thrown aside by her rashly like a small wooden stick, which was shocking to watch.

And at this time, Qin En also saw her side.

Very pleasing to the eye and very clean...... She didn't look like she was sweating at all, and although her white eyebrows looked a little old, her face showed that she was fifteen or sixteen years old.

"Alright, it's time to eat, little ones. ”

The white-tailed girl picked up the grains and sprinkled them on the ground casually, and the chickens and ducks in the yard came to the girl with their fat buttocks, competing for food.

"Eat, eat, eat fat. ”

It's just a pleasure to have fun.

She didn't have any dissatisfaction with this extremely simple life, which was very unsatisfactory to this appearance and age, and she was complaining about trouble, but she didn't have any boredom with this life, giving people a feeling of enjoying this kind of escapist life.

“...... Also, the one standing in the doorway, how long are you going to be there?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, are you Fujiwara Meihong?"

"What's the matter with me?"

The girl put down the grain, casually picked up the white handkerchief next to her and wiped her hands, and walked over slowly, looking straight at Qin En with beautiful ruby eyes across the low fence, waiting for him to speak.

"I'm an employee of the Sunflower Shop, and the boss asked me to bring you flowers. ”

"Oh, send flowers?"

The silver-haired pony-tailed girl named Fujiwara Meihong looked at Qin En carefully, and only confirmed her identity when she saw him holding a potted plant, and opened the small door of the fence.

"Come in. ”

In this way, Qin En walked into this small courtyard in the lost bamboo forest, bypassed the chickens and ducks eating grains, and entered the room.

Although the room was made of wood and bamboo, when he entered, Qin En did not find any moisture and mist penetrating, and a pot of firewood was burning in the room, which made Qin En, who had been walking in the fog for a long time, feel a little warm.

"Let's put the flowers there first. ”

"Good. ”

Qin En directly found a good position and put the potted plant in the corner.

"I've also delivered the flowers, Miss Fujiwara, and I'm going back to deliver the work, so I'll go first. ”

"Why are you in such a hurry? I won't eat your ......?"

Fujiwara Meihong also walked out of the kitchen, handed Qin En a cup of hot tea and said, "The humidity in this bamboo forest is very heavy, you can stay here for a while to bake the fire to get rid of the moisture on your body." ”

"Then you're welcome. ”

Qin En didn't refuse, and sat down happily, after all, the humidity in the bamboo forest was really heavy...... It doesn't hurt to warm up a little bit here.

Mei Hong and Qin En sat on the ground...... There was a small table in the middle, and warm coals were baked next to it.

When looking closely, Qin En felt a kind of enthusiasm from Mei Hong's body, not for the guests and for anyone, but for the kind of passion that lurked under her snow-white skin and seemingly quiet surface.

It's not simple.

Qin En didn't know what that flaming enthusiasm meant, but he instinctively felt that this Fujiwara Meihong was not a simple person, or rather, someone who could know the fragrance of the wind was definitely not an ordinary person.

"It's not easy to break through these fogs in the Lost Bamboo Forest, and I don't have anything here, so this cup of hot tea is a hard cost for you. ”

"Thank you. ”

Qin En didn't understand tea, but he could taste the taste, Qin En just felt that its smell was very appetizing, huh...... It's just like this, it's embarrassing for you to ask him to say one, two, three, four.

“...... It's just that it's not that hard to break into here, right? The fog is a little bigger, but there is only one road. ”

"There is only one way? how is it possible?" Fujiwara Mei's red eyes widened, but then, as if she had discovered something, she stretched out her hand to Qin En and took out the rune paper from his jacket pocket.

Qin En suddenly found that the shape of the red rune paper he was carrying on his body was the same as the rune paper attached to Fujiwara's red pants.

"Haha, I thought it was going on, so that's ......"

Fujiwara Meihong seemed to be very happy, and she laughed very happily, Qin En didn't understand what was funny, so she could only make a silent smile.

This is the boss's guest! It's better to be cautious! As a subordinate, it's better to be cautious!

"No wonder you came from that direction so easily, it turned out that Yuka gave it to you, I thought she would use it, but I didn't expect it to be handed over to you...... No, give it back to you, don't throw it away, otherwise I don't care if I get lost. ”

It seems that all the secrets are on that rune paper, and the reason why Qin En was able to walk through the Lost Bamboo Forest unhindered must be because of this rune paper, if he didn't take her with him, he would probably be trapped in the Lost Bamboo Forest.

"Miss Fujiwara, are you familiar with my boss?"

"Of course it's familiar, we've known each other for a long time......"

Fujiwara Meihong's eyes looked out of the window, and her gaze was very, very far away, it seemed that the story between them was definitely not as simple as overnight.

"You're a human working under a big monster, and you're really courageous. ”

Mei Hong didn't tell Qin En about her relationship with Feng Youxiang, but looked at him with interest.

"Courage is not commendable, I am just a poor ghost attracted by the salary offered by the boss, and I don't need to do too difficult work every day with a salary, and I occasionally chat, which is very relaxed. ”

"It's easy?ha, you guy's courage is really not small, you are the first human to feel relaxed in front of the Lord of the Four Seasons Flowers!"

Is it that scary?

Qin En thinks that as long as you don't die like you did in the backyard of the Sunflower Field before and take the initiative to provoke the wind and see the fragrance.

Even, in some ways, Kazami Yuka is an ideal employer. Although it gives people the feeling that they are hiding something dangerous, they are usually quite good, never lacking a smile, gentle, and warm...... The salary is also considerate and the treatment is very considerate.

At the beginning, when Kazami Yuka took out the wad of wages and threw it in his hand, Qin En found that he was incorrigibly obsessed with her, and her figure and appearance were also first-class, didn't say anything!

It can be said that Qin En has even wanted to work like this for Kazami Yuka, which is pure sincerity without any other desires, without any compliments.

"It's pure, human ......"

Her tone made Qin En care very much, human beings? Could it be that this Fujiwara Meihong is not a normal person? Unlike Yuxiang, Qin En didn't see anything terrible in this silver-haired girl at all.

"How can someone you know be a human being?"

Fujiwara Meihong picked up a piece of firewood, and then in Qin En's horrified gaze, the piece of firewood evaporated instantly, and there was no slag left.

No wonder, no wonder Qin En discovered that there was some kind of enthusiasm in this girl from the beginning, it turned out that this fiery enthusiasm was not an adjective, but a real fire.

"What, you're not afraid?"

"Scared?"

Dumbfounded: But it wasn't Qin En who was dumbfounded, but Mei Hong, who was dumbfounded, because she had never seen this look from a human.

It was a kind of fanaticism! That was a kind of envy! That was a kind of longing! Not afraid of an anomaly that he did not understand, but showed a deep interest in it!

"How can you be afraid, this ability, it's simply ............ It's something you can only dream of. ”

He has no fear, he only has envy and desire for the special ability that is beyond the cognition of normal people, from his eyes, Mei Hong felt his great desire for this mysterious power, and it was extremely hot.

This is the gaze that Fujiwara Meihong has never seen before, and slowly, the things that can't be figured out in his mind immediately become clear, Fujiwara Meihong knocked her hand violently and said, "Understood!"

“？”

"I understand why you became a clerk in Kazami, because...... You're also a quirky guy. ”

"What's weird, isn't it a person's nature to yearn for great power?

Qin En didn't think he should be afraid, because whether it was Kazami Yuka or Fujiwara Meihong, neither of them had the intention of harming him.

No one harmed him, so fear can't be said, and it is not difficult to break the so-called scientific common sense, after all, there are many things in this world that science can't explain, and there are many things that scientists can't figure out!

"That is, you really want this ability?"

Fujiwara Meihong crossed her hands and looked at Qin En with interest.

This made Qin En suddenly nervous, could it be that Fujiwara Meihong wanted to teach herself this special ability?

"I could teach you some basics, but ......"

Fujiwara Meihong didn't know where to take out a pen and paper, and then scribbled something on it, and only after quickly finishing it did she fold the note and seal it with the red and white card.

"Take it and show it to your boss...... If you plan to learn, I can teach it, but that must be Yuka's consent. ”

"Really!" Qin En trembled with excitement, and took the letter handed by Mei Hong, as if it weighed a thousand catties.

"Yuxiang hasn't agreed yet, what are you excited about. ”

"Also, too, ahahaha......"

Qin En tried his best to make a calm appearance, but his shoulders couldn't control the trembling of excitement, and his heart was about to fly out.

This kind of special ability, this kind of superpower, I will have it! Just thinking about it makes people excited and can't sleep! If you have superpowers, even your childhood dreams will come true, right?

"If Kazami Yuka agrees, she'll arrange time for you, okay, look at how you can't sit still...... Hurry up and report back, I'm here all day. ”

"Oh, oh, thank you, Miss Fujiwara!"

After saying goodbye, Qin En disappeared in a puff of smoke, and the Fujiwara girl who saw the speed was staggering.

Qin En ran out almost all the way, and with this excitement and excitement, he ran out of the lost bamboo forest and returned to the sunflower field, rolling up a puff of smoke and dust like a motorcycle.

"Boss, the task you gave me is complete!"

"Ahh

Qin En's current appearance is enough to make Yuxiang exclaim, his pants, clothes, hair, and face are all dusty, I don't know if it's because he ran too fast or if he fell down on the road...... It looks extremely embarrassed.

But the embarrassment was just the appearance, but the mood was unexpected, Youxiang looked at Qin En who walked in from the door, and his whole person seemed to be shining like a glow.

"Boss, this is a letter that Miss Fujiwara asked me to hand over to you. ”

Is this the source of everything? Kazami Yuka took the letter and read it slowly, and then she also understood why her little clerk was so excited.

"Sister Hong wants to teach you...... It's really interesting, she will actually help you, what kind of ecstasy soup did you pour her? Since she said so, then you should go to Meihong in the morning to report, and remember to come to work with me at one o'clock in the afternoon, ah, don't worry, the salary is not reduced, go as much as you want. ”

"Oh yes!!!!!!!!!!!"

Raise your right hand and sing of victory!

Qin En was extremely excited, he didn't have the maturity and stability that a young man in his twenties should have, but like a child of fourteen or fifteen, he applauded and excited about his success!

With a sweet smile, Youxiang watched Qin En dance there for a long time, and she couldn't tell what her mood was.

"Did the car drive back?"

"What ......car? Ahh

Qin En stiffened, and Kazami Yuka still maintained this sweet smile, but in Qin En's eyes, this smile seemed to ...... With some murderous energy?

The truck is still in the lost bamboo forest.
