Chapter 7 Red Leaf Villa
Although the empire has suffered a major crisis, Li Yu still has to get off work when the point comes.
And after work, he also went to a tailor shop and picked up a suit that he had ordered more than 20 days ago.
The tailor whom Hephaestus recommended to him was a very young girl, who looked to be three or four years older than him.
And the tailor industry attaches great importance to experience, so Li Yu was also a little hesitant when he first met Gu An'an.
But later, Gu Anan dispelled Li Yu's doubts with practical actions.
She didn't even need to use a clothes measuring scale, she only asked Li Yu to take off her coat and visually and accurately report the size of each part.
And according to Li Yu's face shape, body shape, budget and use occasions, materials and styles are recommended.
In the end, Li Yu spent 16,000 yuan to order this set of pure wool suits with single-breasted, pointed lapels and cinched waist design.
After retrieving the ready-to-wear clothes, Li Yu tried them on and found that the effect was indeed outstanding, not comparable to the ordinary ready-to-wear clothes he had bought on the Internet before.
Gu Anan took two steps back, looked at his masterpiece, and was also very satisfied, "Wearing the clothes I made to the annual meeting will definitely not make you embarrassed." ”
"Thank you." Li Yu paid the final payment.
"You're welcome." Gu Anan pushed down the monocle on his face, "You will definitely be worth the trip tonight." ”
Li Yu was a little surprised when he heard this, "Do you say this is etiquette or ......?"
"I'm serious, and every Tertiary employee who has attended the annual meeting will feel that way."
"I didn't tell you which company I worked for, did I? How do you know I'm from the Tertiary Period? Li Yu asked.
"Oh, don't worry, I worked there too." Gu An'an said, "After that, I came out and did it alone, otherwise why do you think Hephaestus would recommend you to come to me to make clothes, this can be regarded as the care from a former colleague." ”
Li Yu nodded, "Can you take the liberty of asking why you left?" ”
"Huh?"
"The working environment of the third discipline, the salary is very good."
"Oh, they paid me a lot of money, plus I didn't have to work overtime, which is really good." Gu An'an said, "But my personal words are not very cold to those beliefs, interdimensional travel and so on.
"This shop was originally my grandfather's, I lived with him since I was a child, and I also learned the skills of tailoring from him, and then he died, so in order for this shop to continue to open, I quit my job and came back to take over."
"Did your resignation go smoothly?"
"Well, I signed a confidentiality agreement or something, and then it was handed over normally, maybe it's because I'm just a small financial person there, and there's nothing irreplaceable." Gu An'an said.
"Yes, then I wish you a prosperous business."
"That's not necessarily that I don't like to work so hard," Gu An'an said, "It's good to take a few orders from time to time like now, and it's good to touch the fish usually, anyway, my grandfather has already bought this shop, and I don't have to pay rent." ”
Li Yu thought for a moment and took out a contract from his backpack, "If you want to fish after death, you can sign your name on it, so that I may be able to take you to another plane." ”
"Eh, does the company still have such a business now, it sounds pretty good."
Gu Anan took the contract and glanced at it a few times, but he didn't sign it, but returned it to Li Yu.
"Thanks, but you don't need to, you may think it's a little strange, but there are people like that in this world."
"What kind of person?"
"It's the kind of very old-fashioned guy who thinks that if he is dead, he should stay dead." Gu An'an put his hands in his pockets.
"Are you such a person?"
"I don't know, but I think death is a very romantic thing, because no one can say what it looks like after death, so I wanted to see it for myself when the time comes.
"Of course, it may be nothing, it's just a complete death, but this makes people feel inexplicably relaxed, after all, I've lived a lifetime, and it's not bad to be able to sleep peacefully."
"So you don't want to go to another world after you die?"
"Uh-huh."
"I see." Li Yu glanced at the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms on his wrist, "It's almost time, it's time for me to go." ”
"If you still need to make clothes next time, please continue to come to me, I can give you a former colleague discount, 95% off."
Li Yu just went downstairs in a new suit, came to the third series parked on the side of the road, opened the car door and sat in.
At 18:15, this is the time of traffic jam, but fortunately, the annual meeting will start at nine o'clock in the evening, so Li Yu still has time to rush outside the fifth ring road.
He booked his way, turned on the radio, and listened to the latest news as he drove.
After the white noise of a few leaders attending a meeting of so-and-so, radio began to enter the international news link.
There is a piece of news that caught Li Yu's attention, saying that the price of beef has been rising recently because of an emergency situation in a certain place.
Li Yu listened silently and tuned the radio to the music channel.
…………
Han Bin parked his Magotan under a locust tree, extinguished the fire, and then pulled out a telescope from the back seat.
Look out at the mountain villa in the distance.
This private estate, called Momiji, sits halfway up a hill and covers an area of more than 1.6 hectares.
Even in City B, where the rich and powerful gather, it is definitely the top luxury house.
However, there is not much information about this manor that can be retrieved on the Internet, and no one knows who its owner is or what it looks like inside.
What Han Bin can see is that there are a lot of security guards at the door, and at first glance, it is not the kind of showcasing at the entrance of an ordinary community, most of them should be veterans, and they are also veterans.
The lines and timing of the patrols are well arranged, in other words, it's almost impossible to sneak in.
However, the more this happened, the more Han Bin felt that there was something wrong with the Tertiary Period.
What company will have such a big battle at the annual meeting, and arrange such strict security, I don't know what kind of national dignitaries are coming tonight.
In addition, the mysterious owner behind Momiji Mountain Villa is likely to be related to the Tertiary Period.
To be honest, Han Bin was also a little scared when he found out this, the origin on the other side was obviously not simple, and he was just a small criminal police detachment captain.
Whether it is a boss or a subordinate, they don't understand why he wants to bite this clean company that has no criminal record at all.
Han Bin sometimes felt that he was an iron-headed fool, and the old leader even hinted at him that he wanted him to turn his focus back to his own work, and he would be promoted to exchange in other places next year.
But thinking of the eleven-year-old girl named Tang Mengjia and her disappeared corpse, Han Bin just couldn't make up his mind to leave this matter alone.
And he has been having more and more frequent nightmares lately, all of which revolve around the end of the world.
Those dreams...... They are so real.
Han Bin went to see a psychiatrist and hung up an expert number, but the expert only attributed this to his work pressure and irregular work and rest.
He was prescribed some drugs that helped calm his mind, but Han Bin, as a criminal policeman, naturally didn't like these potentially addictive things, so he put them aside and didn't eat them.
But in recent days, his head had even begun to hurt, and his vision had become blurry, and he felt as if his head had been forcibly pressed into a pool.
No matter how much he struggled, he couldn't look up, and he wanted to scream in his dream, but when he opened his mouth, he only spit out a bunch of bubbles.
Touch an octopus today, and everyone will rest early~
