Although the way to quit as a "wage earner" was a bit tough, Alice still got the salary she deserved from Cier. Alice, who doesn't know the so-called "bank card", has taken the most intuitive, thick pile of banknotes, even if she doesn't know how the "price" and money situation in this world can be judged, it is indeed too "terrible" salary.

As for these "expenditures", all the rich man "Xi'er" did was wave his hand in front of the stunned Alice, and then looked at her helplessly. Perhaps the original employment relationship ended peacefully after the "cooperation", and Ciel seemed to be much more casual than before. Although there are occasionally some "digging holes", they are also dispelled by Alice pretending to be stupid or pressing further.

I have to say that Xi'er is a dangerous guy, obviously only a teenager, but he looks even more ruthless than the old "businessman" who has been working for decades. But...... As an object of small talk, whether it is in terms of "appearance" or "conversation", Xi'er is a good choice.

"So, that's the end of our employment relationship now. ”

Xi'er, who paid the last salary, sorted out her clothes, Xi'er seemed to have a strange attachment to the maid, whether she went out or at home, she was dressed as a maid, of course, this maid was too rich. And, too, it's a little too smart.

"Well, just in case you're not sure about the situation, I'll explain to you that your salary is probably all the net income of a salaried person in a year, as long as you're not stupid enough to be scammed out of it. Trust you even if it's a helicopter ride. You can also go where you want to go. ”

One eats and drinks without worry. Even the person who has time to enjoy it once in a while, the net income of a year is obtained in less than a month by himself who just pushes a wheelchair, which ......

"Am I ...... Would you like to thank you?"

"Thank you, I wouldn't have been able to catch her on my own if it weren't for your help. Even at this level, I've deducted some of the money for the default, and if you resign a few days later, you can get more?" After a pause, Ciel gave a light smile, as always, with temptation and danger, "How about it." Can you still regret it and stop thinking about it?"

"Thank you. ”

At this time, let's be honestly grateful, so many days of "communication" have already made Alice see most of Cier's personality clearly, unless it is really the sun coming out of the west, it is impossible for Ciel to provide any "pure" help.

If you accept it, it's likely to be three days after three days, three days after three days...... Such a development.

"I'd better go pack my bags. ”

"Wait, this really isn't a trick, at least I can guarantee that. ”

Seeing Alice hurrying to leave, Xi'er, who couldn't move, could only put on an anxious and somewhat pitiful face to stay. Somewhat cute. At least judging by her face, let's ...... Listen to it.

"Let's stay here for a few more days. I also need to find someone to take over your job. And...... Rather than wandering aimlessly alone in a foreign land, it is better to walk with me when I am ready. If you're looking for the so-called "magician's lair", I'm going to a similar place in the near future. ”

Lair......

"What do you mean?"

Alice turned around, after all, this topic had to be taken seriously even if it was a trap. Although she has been "out there" for a while, what Alice has seen and learned is still only in the realm of "common sense". For people with superpowers like magic in "reality", it is very difficult to get a little bit of news, so it is natural to be able to put your mind at ease after that, but ...... Finding a specific destination is still a big problem.

Maybe it can be a city by city, but this is too inefficient. Ciel had just said that she was going to go somewhere "similar" to the Magician's hometown in the next few days, perhaps...... Walking with her is a better choice. Of course, the biggest problem in doing so becomes how to get rid of the "traps" in the conditions she proposes.

"It's literal, and that's why I need to 'invest'. ”

"The fish has been hooked", Xi'er looked exactly like this expression at this time, "In fact, I received an invitation not long ago, and the specific content is also very boring, called 'Science and Technology Exhibition and Theory Proposal', in fact, I just want some investors to invest in it." Even those guys can't afford to spend a lot of research, so the support of investors like me is the key to their successful research. ”

"But what does it have to do with where I'm going?"

"Of course, it has to do with it, because this time I turned to the research institute of our investor, and it was a relationship that magically made it possible to hug and sleep in a bed. While saying "dangerous" indifferently, Ciel looked into Alice's eyes, "Do you still have an impression of the 'meteor shower' before you came here?" I think even you can deduce that it is not an ordinary 'small star' fragment that fell." ”

“......”

Of course, the previous "meteor shower" only looked more like, and everyone deduced that it fell like some kind of "metallic" substance. If you go back to the roots, it is precisely for that reason that I came here, and now it seems ...... Did magic not only take root on the outside, but also closely connect with the times?

"Got it? I'm going to participate in this kind of boring thing. But there's no denying how important it may be to you. ”

After a pause, Ciel sighed, "This is my second 'thank you' gift for helping me catch Zero, and I hope you don't take it as a quid pro quo like before." Besides, you can almost be said to be unable to move an inch out of the 'outside' without identity, and if you stay with me, at least you don't have to worry about 'harassment', and you can also enter as my 'attendant' on some important occasions. Well, and there's a paycheck to be paid. ”

"Cier...... You. ”

"How?"

Without even giving Alice a chance to think about it, Ciel stretched out a "hand of friendship" to her, "Don't you think about it anymore, honey, I don't want to break up with you after less than a month?" )
