Chapter 32: The Nature of Humanity

"Name?"

"Huai Shi. ”

"Age?"

"Seventeen...... Wait a minute, are you going to recruit a cowherd from the Astronomical Society?"

In the silent office, the young man behind the desk scratched his chin and looked at the expressionless inquirer opposite with puzzlement: "I said, uncle, these days, you have asked and asked, and you have checked, and I can be regarded as eradicating a scourge for the Astronomical Society, right? Why is this treatment like a traitor?"

"Routine investigation, please cooperate. ”

I don't know how many times, the inquirer uttered this sentence, and then asked, "Can you describe to us more about your fight with the Red Glove?"

"I forgot, I can't remember. Huai Shi rolled her eyes: "Probably the bald cape Paige Man who passed by beat him to death with a palm, right? Really, as soon as I entered the door, I saw him playing red gloves ......"

"Oh, Paipaman the Bald Cloak...... How is it different from what you said last time?"

"I can't remember!"

"So, can you explain how you, as a newly promoted Chinese, killed the Red Glove of the Third Order? Based on our previous investigation, it seems that you have always been a student of musical expertise, and you have not even fought. ”

Huai Shi rolled her eyes: "I was born with divine power!"

"So the next question ......"

Two hours later, the inquirer calmly sorted out the thick pile of records in his hand, and as if it was a routine matter, he got up and said goodbye: "Thank you, then, for your cooperation, and for your contribution to this world. ”

After a formulaic handshake, he turned away.

Huai Shi stood at the door with a bewildered expression.

"Is it finally over? I said, is there something wrong with your astronomical society? Send such a person over and over and over for the past few days, and ask ......."

Ai Qing, who was reading the book, was not shocked: "Normal, it is a matter of green days, and there must always be a detailed record." They are all scribes. The job is to write down whatever you say, and then go back and file it. ”

"Is such a superficial record really useful?"

"It's just a process. Ai Qing said calmly: "If no one wants to do something in this process, there is probably no problem." ”

"Huh?" Huai Shi looked over: "Something?"

"Normal operation, sit down. ”

Ai Qing calmly drank the coffee brought by the female attendant, "Where there are people, there is a struggle, the position of the inspector is so important, there has always been more wolves and less meat, and it is occupied by a lame man like me, who is still a few months away from being twenty years old, no one will be convinced." If I can make a slot out of it, I don't mind doing it. ”

β€œ......”

Huai Shi gasped, "Your astronomical meeting is really in dire straits." ”

"One last reminder to youβ€”"

Ai Qing finally raised her head and glanced at the sign on Huaishi's chest, "It's not you, it's usβ€”of course, I don't mean to give you a sense of collective honor, but I'm going to have an accident, and you can't please me." ”

"Ah, I know, I understand, what it means to be in the same boat, right?"

Huai Shi sighed, after so many days, he had almost adapted to Kuai Aiqing's way of talking, but why couldn't he hear a word of positive energy from her mouth?

If he is a negative energy generator now, then Ai Qing can properly open a manufacturing factory - the output equivalent is not at the same level.

How did this woman survive until now?

"Of course, it's by strength. ”

Ai Qing replied without raising her head.

Huai Shi was stunned for a moment, and then pulled out the cold in her heart, could it be that this woman can even read minds?

"I'm not a sublimator, so I wouldn't have that inexplicable thing, and if I were you, I wouldn't have all the questions written on my face. ”

"Uh......"

Huai Shi subconsciously touched his face: "Is there something written on my face?"

"That's right. Ai Qing, who was reading the book, raised her head and glanced at him again, with pity in her eyes: "It simply vividly expounds the essence of human beings." ”

"Huh? Is it written by a pigeon or a repeater?"

Huai Shi asked curiously.

β€œ......”

Ai Qing simply ignored him.

Under Huai Shi's constant noise attacks, she finally showed a trace of impatience, closed the book, and wondered from the bottom of her heart if there was something wrong with her brain when she recruited this kind of person as her secretary.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

She raised her finger and pinched the bridge of your nose, narrowing her eyes: "If you want to be in a hurry after the report is written, it is better to check the top ten haunted houses in Xinhai that have been discharged by those good deeds on the Internet recently, lest there be people who are as boring as you who play haunted house adventures and make themselves crazy." ”

"Don't mention it!"

As soon as Huai Shi mentioned this, she slapped the table angrily: "That ranking is just a fart!

Why do you think my house is a haunted house? Isn't it just a little deserted and a little poor? If I had money, wouldn't I even have the door repaired? In the past two days, I've driven away four waves of neurosis who came to take pictures!"

β€œ......”

Ai Qing was helpless: "So what exactly do you want to say?"

"This ...... I just want to consult......" Huai Shi suddenly became shy, rubbed her hands, and squeezed out a flattering smile: "Boss, can you pay a salary in advance?"

β€œ......”

Ai Qing took a deep breath and resisted the urge to slam her book on the face of this goods, "Didn't I already give you more than 20,000 yuan?"

"It's gone. Huai Shi held back her tears, and looked at the dead crow on the tree outside the window with unbearable recollection: "In short, it's hard to say."

Now that school is about to start, I still owe more than 4,000 in Huabei, not to mention tuition, I can't afford to eat, boss, can you pay me some salary for the New Year?"

"It's only the end of September, and there is still half a year before the Chinese New Year. ”

Ai Qing looked at him expressionlessly, for a long time, and took out her mobile phone: "How much do you want?"

Huai Shi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she leaned in: "Hey, just get five or six thousand, and I'll pay you back when I get paid." ”

Drip!

"Alipay received 4,000 yuan. ”

Ai Qing put away her phone indifferently: "This is your basic salary for this month, take it, unless there are any other temporary tasks, until the fifteenth of next month, you will have to live on it." ”

"Is there a monthly salary of 4,000?"

Huai Shi was a little happy, in the past, I used to play the piano in the bar in the wind and rain and give the orphanage a literary performance, where is there so much money.

"Oh, it just so happens that Lao Liu is going to be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, and I can invite him to dinner. ”

"When did your relationship get so good?"

"Ha, envy, right?" Huai Shi began to get carried away, "Friendship between men is so simple. ”

"Really?"

Ai Qing calmly took a sip of coffee, and asked as if unintentionally: "So, have you figured out how to explain to him that the car you bought with a loan of more than one million yuan was set on fire?"

β€œ......”

Soon, seeing Huai Shi leave the office with a sad expression, Ai Qing finally ushered in a rare purity.

In the silence, she sighed and looked at the large amount of money on the bank page on the computer screenβ€”$3.4 million in total.

Never mind.

Don't tell him about the bounty on Red Glove just yet, right?

.

.

"You say a good house, why is it a haunted house?"

Huai Shi stood in front of her house with her waist crossed, looking at the lush towering trees around her, the green moss on the walls, and the creeper.

Behind the rusty gates, the courtyard is filled with wildflowers and green grass, and the broken statues reflect white in the sunlight......

"No matter how you look at it, it's beautiful and sunny!"

After spitting a few mouthfuls at the guys who were messing around on the Internet, Huai Shi selectively ignored how gloomy her house was at night, and shook her head to push open the creaky door.

"I'm back!"

There was no response, only the shrill sound of the door slowly closing behind him.

See? How intimate! Even the gate is fully automatic!

Is there somewhere else? Is there any?

The guy who said that such a nice place was a haunted house had a very bad conscience.

After Huai Shi snorted coldly, he stepped on the creaking floor, pushed open the main door of the room, and returned to the dusty hall, then picked up the cup on the table and drank two sips of hot water before returning to the room to start school.

However, for a guy like him who basically relies on Meng for cultural classes, the course in the third year of high school is basically abandoned, and more preparation is the materials and teaching materials for the professional-level performance exam next month.

ABRSM's professional performance credentials can be used as diplomas in most countries around the world, and with this thing in hand, as long as the college entrance examination results are not so bad that they are miserable, it should be no problem to get a letter from an art university.

"So, does that really mean anything to you today?" asked Raven.

"Huh?" Huai Shi was puzzled.

The crow asked again, "Do you think a diploma is meaningful to the sublimator?"

"The sublimator doesn't need to eat, doesn't the sublimator need to work?" Huai Shi rolled her eyes: "Is it possible that money falls from the sky while sitting at home?"

β€œ......”

The crow sighed: "I mean, for the sublimators, the vast majority of people are not worried about money. Although it is not rich and expensive, food and clothing are definitely not a problem. ”

"How did the sublimator's money come from?" Huai Shi skimmed her: "Killing people and setting fires? What's the difference between that and robbing? Can't you live a peaceful life and eat together?"

To be honest, although the Astronomical Society does have a very good salary for its work, even if you don't do anything every month, you can get a basic salary of 4,000 yuan, but if you think about it, you can know how dangerous it will be when you have to work.

Just look at Liu Dongli.

A cowherd, who has a good life, came to be his bodyguard, and if he kept it, something would happen! Not only was he forced to join the old ladies' Sunset Red Yangge Troupe, but he was also stabbed in the back by Erwuzai.

If Huai Shi has any feelings about the world of the sublimators these days, it is only two words: danger.

A large number of border relics that are scattered in the present realm, whose functions are unknown, whose threats are unknown, and whose roles are unknown, each of them has completely different soul abilities and strange stigmatas that have been integrated into the bodies of high-level sublimators......

Each one is enough to easily kill someone.

Even a cowherd like Liu Dongli who sells his face can rely on his prosperous beauty (self-proclaimed) to forcibly charm the people who come by him to the point of forgetting to breathe, resulting in suffocation.

And he is just a weak, pitiful and helpless negative energy machine.

Just mending a half-crippled red glove would have killed him several times.

Birth to death?

Forget it.

Find a way to become financially independent as soon as possible, then quit your job at the Astronomical Society and work hard towards your dream of playing the violin in Vienna honestly.

It's a big deal to be a music teacher!

β€œ...... Although the life of the sublimator may be a little dangerous for most people, there are also people who are self-reliant, you don't want to be a bandit all over the world, okay?"

The crow sighed helplessly, and raised his phone with one paw: "You look at the news first." ”

"What's that?"

Huai Shi leaned over and looked at the manuscript of tomorrow's news: "The Roman auction house has set a new record, and the Dusk Lineage 5th Order Stignonid Hogg is forty-three...... One, two, three, how can there be so many zeros!"
