"Why are you still here?"

The moment they looked at each other, Winina's eyes showed a hint of surprise.

She casually reminded him out of kindness just now, didn't this person take it seriously at all?

"Why are you back?"

Lu Qingge did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

"It's my job."

Winina said lightly.

As one of the core backbones of the Iron Wolf Regiment, her mission today is to bring a few of her subordinates to attack the [Shadow Cave].

Due to the high level of danger, the Iron Wolf Regiment has been on hold for some time regarding the exploration project of the [Shadow Cave].

So, Winina's team came to this place for the first time.

Her team was actually quite well prepared, and they also brought silence spells similar to [Chilling Cicada Talisman].

Unfortunately, the team didn't have time to use it at all.

When they opened the [Bronze Chest], they also didn't notice the [Troll Bat] biota in the dome, and they were caught off guard.

And now, after regrouping the team.

With this previous experience, Winina returned with the others.

This time, they were confident that they would take the [Heavenly Thing].

"If she knew, if there was only that little thing in the broken box that took her a lot of effort, she would probably be a little angry, right?"

Lu Qingge read silently.

"But ......"

"If she found out that there was nothing in the box, would she be more upset......

Thinking of this, a few beads of sweat gradually oozed from Lu Qingge's forehead.

In this way, this place must not be able to stay for long.

In this situation, it is the best policy!

"Ah, I'll see you later."

Lu Qingge waved calmly and walked away.

Why does he look weird......

Winina frowned slightly, a little puzzled.

However, time was precious, and she didn't have time to think about it, so she led the team into the cave again.

……

In front of the entrance to the [Shadow Cave].

Seeing Lu Qingge's figure reappear, the other players who had been standing still muttered to each other.

"It's out, it's out!"

"Damn, can you come out alive? Awesome! ”

"And he seems to have been in there for a long time?"

"Huh, so what?"

"Looking at his grizzled face, it is estimated that he will be beaten inside!"

“……”

Lu Qingge naturally ignored these idle guys.

He quickly left [the foothills of the Gran] and walked quickly in the direction of [Gran Town].

It wouldn't be long before Winina found the box empty.

And by the time she remembered herself, it was too late to chase after her.

"Whew."

Lu Qingge breathed a sigh of relief:

"Although there were a lot of accidents on this trip, I stumbled along the way."

"But in the end, it was all settled."

"—Go home!"

……

Ten minutes later.

Inside the Shadow Cavern.

Winina fell silent as she looked at the bronze chest, which had been turned into broken copper......

In the evening.

Sunset.

The fiery red afterglow fell on Grand Town, painting the town a layer of red paint.

The office hall of the Brave Association.

"Hey, hey, you say ......"

"Well, yes, we all understand the situation now, I'm really, really embarrassed......"

"Uh-huh, I'm sorry! I'm really sorry, we'll be sure to pay attention in the future......"

As usual, Caroline is dealing with today's complaint calls.

This is part of the daily life of a clerk.

"You can't do that, Carolyn."

Just passing by Betty, she reached out and pushed her glasses, and couldn't help but mutter:

"How many times have I told you?"

"Don't waste too much time with this kind of invalid customer."

Betty reached out and patted a stack of papers on Caroline's desk: "Look at your summons today, it's all sorted out?" ”

"Not yet."

Caroline smiled wryly, "I'm sorry, Director Betty, I'll pay attention next time." ”

"When did you not say that?"

Betty grimaced: "Honestly, Carolyn. ”

"You are also the most effective among your employees."

"I originally wanted to transfer you out as a manager."

"But right now, it looks like you're probably still lacking in your ability to deal with customers."

After listening, Caroline's heartbeat skipped a beat.

In the Brave Association, the clerk can be said to be the most basic position.

No young and motivated professional would be willing to stay in this position forever.

Although Caroline was reluctant to admit it, Betty's words did have a great killing effect on her.

"I ......"

Caroline was a little nervous, but she didn't know what to say.

At this moment, a figure appeared at the door of the office hall.

- Lu Qingge.

"It's him again."

Betty's gaze was also drawn to this young man who looked dusty.

This person is really famous within the Brave Association, and she naturally recognizes it at a glance.

"If you want to leave work early, send him away."

"Don't forget what I just told you."

Betty gave a low hint and turned to leave.

"Miss Carolyn."

"Long time no see."

Lu Qingge smiled and waved hello, and then sat down in front of Caroline's workstation:

"I'm sorry, I'm late again!"

"Ah, it's okay......"

Caroline glanced sideways behind her, then whispered:

"Well, the business license matter has been settled, and you will receive the certificate in a few days."

Lu Qingge: "Oh, thank you very much! ”

"You're welcome."

Caroline still whispered, "Do you have anything to do tonight?" Let's solve it quickly, our supervisor is not happy. ”

"Ah, is that so?"

"I'm sorry to delay you from work again."

Lu Qingge scratched his head and smiled a little helplessly: "It's nothing, it's just to hand in a task." ”

"Assignment?"

Caroline was slightly stunned.

Wait......

Seemingly......

If she's not mistaken.

During this time, Lu Qingge has not been to the office hall, and there seems to be only one bounty task at hand, right?

Caroline's voice trembled: "You have to hand ...... ...... handover"

Lu Qingge said: "X-6"

Carolyn: "......?"

Cardiopulmonary arrest!

X-6？

How can it be!?

That's what is called the absolute [Newcomer's Grave]!

She remembered that just two days earlier, an Assassin had taken on the mission.

The Assassin was still confident when he went, and today he sent her a message saying that he was canceling the mission.

The reason is that he is now in [Nether Purgatory]......

"Miss Carolyn, are you alright?"

Lu Qingge tries to wake up Caroline, who is already in a fugue.

Caroline's god hadn't recovered before the sound of the system sounded in her ears again.
