Chapter 10: Spider Walking
"Meow, open the door."
Before I could sleep for a while, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?"
Lu Ping'an was a little unhappy, he had just been lying down for a short time, and he didn't let people make up for sleep.
"Me. Your leek, leek box has arrived. ”
Lu Ping'an was so frightened that he suddenly woke up, and his vest was sweating.
Leek? She knows what I think of her? Or is there any more advanced mind-reading? In the world of 98 years, there is no leek talk!
Lu Ping'an silently opened the door, but what was greeted was the flattering smile of a certain woman who came to add BUFF.
She carried a bag of breakfast and smiled.
"I haven't eaten breakfast yet, I'll bring you some by the way."
She smiled proudly, even a little smugly.
Yesterday I touched a little supplement from my brother and she can afford breakfast again! Breakfast for Mankind!
Lu Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief, and did not encounter the poisonous second traverser, he opened the door.
"Let's eat together, I have some milk and bread here."
"No, it's not as good as biscuits, I have to leave a ..... cough in my stomach, no need, I've already eaten it." Besides, you know milk isn't for me, meow. ”
This time, the girl took the initiative to hold her little paws, and the beckoning cat style swung her small fists up and down.
Some things are difficult to hide, and since there may be long-term cooperation later, it is better to be honest.
"Anyway, he should have seen through it yesterday, meow, he still looks relatively honest at the moment, and he shouldn't be a bad person."
The girl's white cat ears are also exposed, and they shake together with the little tail, making them more energetic and cute.
"Oh, even cats are lactose intolerant? Interesting, what about catnip? ”
Asked lightly, the boy asked casually.
The girl froze suddenly, her tail stood up straight, and her ears exploded.
There was a wariness in her eyes, the eyes of a girl looking at a suspected offender.
"The last one who tried to add catnip to my diet is still in the hospital!"
It's quite merciful, but you didn't kill it?
At this moment, Lu Ping'an became more and more sure that he must hide his "truth".
It's no wonder that others say that "natural ability" is the biggest secret, and a beast like Shui Yun naturally exposes additional weaknesses just by being known about his ability.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just a few more things that can't be eaten, her sense of smell should be good, and she won't be casually tricked....... but if it is made into a spray? Or placed in the water in the bathroom, interesting, want to see. ”
There were chaotic thoughts in his head, but Lu Ping'an smiled very friendly.
He ignored the warning, and thought about when he would have time to go to the pet store and add some material.
“…… By the way, I also have a big cat at home, so why don't you try it? Forget it, she just looks like a cat, this kind of thing, it's not even humiliating, besides, I'm going to be a little nicer to her lately. ”
He sat at the living room dining table, enjoying the breakfast delivered to his door.
The door over there was still closed, and Xia Qin still hadn't gone home.
"Looks like she's going crazy to work overtime."
He was eating the leek box, but the girl kept spinning around the table, unable to stop, wanting to stop, and still pretending to be calm on her face, and her tail kept wagging her tail.
"Okay, okay, get down to business first, did you bring something?"
Lu Ping'an, whose mouth was full of oil, put down his chopsticks.
"Brought, it's so expensive, can you share it."
The girl cried and mourned, trying to fool her way and revise the previous agreement.
"Then forget it, you can not trade at all......"
"Smack!"
A stack of contracts was smashed on the table, and the girl flipped through it angrily.
"I asked a familiar deed to get it, and he gave me a discounted price of 300. The confidential content is the details of your and me's abilities, and if you violate the contract, you will be warned for one year in red. If there is no problem, just sign it. ”
The contractor, or contract master, is a branch of the scholar's path, a rather practical second-order professional.
Its professional capacity can turn a "verbal contract" into a "binding contract".
Lu Ping'an flipped through it to make sure that there was nothing hidden, and signed it in two clicks.
Red letter warning? Any use of supernatural abilities comes at a cost.
And the cost of this "contract" is shared by both the contractor and the contractor.
He may be able to come up with a strong contract that "the violator will die", but he will also have to bear the price of enough to kill one person.
The contract of that level was definitely not bought by the poor girl Shui Yun.
The so-called "red letter warning" is a warning that has passed the test of the times, has the lowest cost and the most serious consequences.
"The contract period is one year, and the penalty period for breaking the oath is also one year, and if you violate the contract, there will be a deficit of 'betrayer' on your face, which cannot be covered. If you don't want society to die, let's keep each other's information. ”
Since the power of the contract also derives from the signatories themselves, it is difficult to wash away the curse on oneself, even if it is just a painless deficit.
And in the world of the secret keeper who values credibility and commitment, the price of being a liar is also close to social death....... which will make everyone around you reconsider their attitude towards you.
The seemingly innocuous red-letter warning contract is actually more effective than low-level curses, at least until the social order collapses.
It is Lu Ping'an's idea to sign a confidentiality contract, he has a lot of things hidden on his body, and the more he uses his ability, the more things are leaked, and he needs to avoid risks in advance.
Of course, he had no experience with this, and it was Chrissy who made the suggestion.
Chrissy sauce must have selfish intentions, and Lu Ping'an only decided to use it after repeated deliberation and determined that it should be harmless...... After returning from that crime scene, her attitude was much friendlier.
The contract stipulates that "information related to the capabilities of both parties" also means that even if Lu Ping'an comes up with new capabilities, the other party must also keep it confidential within one year....... That means the possibility of deeper cooperation in addition to secrecy.
Lu Ping'an has a plan, a grand plan that can be win-win in theory, and it needs a few tool cats...... Ahem, trusted teammates.
The little girl didn't think that far, she was just heartbroken for the extra expenses of the contract.
She thinks why this man is such a mother-in-law, he still doesn't trust himself, and his favorability is down! down!。
The most excessive, I have to pay extra money on my side, and I am not willing to share the contract money! Don't let yourself be a little corrupt.
Well, that's right, be greedy, it's two contracts instead of one.
The contract of the Lei family brothers and sisters were all brought over, and it was naturally the money from the elder brother Lei Huodao, but if Lu Ping'an was willing to share a little, there was no need to detail who would go to the money.
Looking at the little girl with her cheeks puffed out and sulking, Lu Ping'an also had some extra thoughts.
"Looks like you're short of money?"
“...... Isn't that what you did? ”
"You don't need it at all, I don't have a shortage of people."
Lei Shuiyun looked at him, grinding his teeth silently, and then tried to squeeze out a smile.
"You think too much, senior brother, junior sister, I have always been grateful to you for meow. It's just that I don't have a lot of money right now. ”
"That's good, I have a purchase order here, can you do me a favor?" $300 for running errands. ”
“300?! So good meow? Just run an errand? ”
Lei Shuiyun took the slip and opened it to see that it was all something he had never heard of.
"Hermaphroditic plants of Snow Mountain bitter flowers, seeds of white mandala grass, rhizomes of antletarian wood...... Hey? These seem to be magical plants, and you're planning to develop potions? Or take the gardener's path, isn't that the logistical path......"
Faced with the girl's question, Lu Ping'an just smiled and did not answer.
Now, it was Lei Shuiyun's turn to stick out his tongue embarrassedly and lowered his head, which could be regarded as an apology.
Not tracking down the other party's intelligence is the most fundamental rule of the secret keeper, not to mention the ability and path to find out the other party.
Even if you have a commission such as a purchase order, unless it is an obvious contraband, the veteran will not ask at all, obviously Lei Shuiyun is not mature enough.
"It shouldn't be difficult to get it in the morning, it's not a rare thing, there should be a channel on your brother's side. I was restricted from going out, otherwise I would have gone on my own. ”
You can make money by running errands, and there is no reason to refuse at all.
But when Lei Shuiyun got the list and was about to go out, he was stopped by Lu Ping'an, who remembered something.
"Wait, I forgot an important ....... Alright, go and get back quickly. ”
"Catnip!!"
Looking at the last three words, Lei Shuiyun's cute little face was instantly distorted.
She meowed angrily, her hateful teeth itching, and she stared at Lu Ping'an, whose face was full of pleasure....... But she instinctively sensed that no matter what she said, the other party would return it more happily.
For this kind of bastard, ignoring him may be the best choice, and in the end, he squeezed out a sentence.
“...... I'll be soon. ”
She was about to go out angrily, but Lu Ping'an casually added a BUFF to her and asked her to send it quickly, but suddenly remembered something.
"Remember to give me an invoice later, I'm afraid you'll be embezzled."
"There is a black market for such things, how can there be invoices!"
"Oh, what's the matter...... But catnip pet stores sell it, and there is always an invoice! ”
"Bang dang!"
didn't answer, judging from the strength of her closing the door and the sound of her footsteps downstairs, she was angry enough.
"Hehe, in the future, if she puts a sprayer and a bottle of water on the table, she will be suspicious...... The next time you go to the gym, bring her a drink, buy some expensive sports drinks, and see if she is reluctant to throw them away. ”
After completing the daily task (bullying the kitten), Lu Ping'an put his mind on business.
"According to the plan, through the kitten, the news that I am going to take the path of the logistics gardener has been transmitted. Then, it's time for the pleasant harvest. ”
It was past nine o'clock, and another 24 hours had passed, and it was a pleasant time to harvest the leeks.
As soon as the system began to settle, he was stunned.
[A small amount of experience in obtaining the black iron level spell 'Spider Walk', current progress 11/100.]
"I'll go, no wonder the little kitten endures so humiliation and burdens, and breaks through to become a real professional in one night? The Awakened Spell Isn't Shrinking? ”
