Chapter 93 Heping Street Sub-district Office (2)
Luo Qi followed Du Zhengyi into the lobby of the street office, the area of the lobby is not cramped, if this is really a street office, it can accommodate about 100 people waiting for business. But most of the old houses have the problem of not being high, and here they are also low, which is a little depressing. Not to mention that the office itself is located in a tree hollow, and the plane trees outside the window shade a lot of daylight, which makes the place even darker.
In the middle of the hall, there is also a row of office counters, and the wall is painted red according to human preferences, and a few large golden characters are pasted on it: Heping Street Street Government Affairs Service Center.
There are about ten seats behind the counter, which can accommodate ten staff members to handle business for customers at the same time. But Roach suspected that it was a human configuration, and few mages would gather to come to the office. The counter is not a complete imitation of human behavior, and if he were to plan it, he would have ten computers on the counter.
Now, behind the counter sat only a young girl with neat bangs, hair just shoulder-length, and a houndstooth women's suit. Hearing them enter, she raised her eyes and glanced at them wearily.
Du Zhengyi walked straight to her side, and she showed a professional smile without any enthusiasm towards Du Zhengyi, "Sir, you should have made a mistake." ”
The girl glanced impatiently at Roach beside him, and Roach saw that her eyes were a little lighter, the bridge of her nose was delicate, her chin was pointed, and her cheekbones were sharp like a hand that could cut her face.
"Probably not." Du Zhengyi said, "I didn't rely on electronic maps to navigate. ”
"I said you're wrong," said the girl, smirking, "you're just wrong." ”
Luo Qi glanced at her again, a little worried that Du Zheng would lose patience with her later. However, Du Zhengyi just stretched out his right hand, and a cluster of flames burned from his palm, and his voice was still gentle, "Can you please check the record of the appointment visit?" ”
The girl's expression became clear, but it was not pleasant. She pulled a face and pulled a thick notebook from the side. Luo Qi was a little puzzled, the front desk staff of the mage's office, the magic ability could not even distinguish between a mage and a mage, how depressed it was to hire such a person here. If he looked at it this way, he could also find a brainless job in the wizarding world.
Thinking of this, Roach couldn't help but be stunned, this was the idea he had been used to. Admitting that he was incompetent, and thinking about the future all the time, he could barely remember that he was no longer the same Roach. His little black cat barked softly in his pocket, and he reached into his pocket and comfortingly stroked the cat's back.
There are dozens of plastic chairs in the waiting area of the lobby, on which only a couple sits. Luo Qi subconsciously looked over, they looked like mages in terms of physique, the same slender and tall figures, and they were getting close to each other at the moment and whispering something softly. I don't know what they're waiting to do.
There weren't many things that Roach could think of that needed to come to the office, and they usually only came to the office to complain when they felt that the credit they had earned for the services they had provided to Jonlin was inaccurate. But the mage's movement can be very convenient, if not particularly poor, most of them will take the Pendragon track directly to Qionglin to do business, where the efficiency is higher. He observed the young couple curiously, they looked healthy and smart, and they really didn't look like poor people who needed to wait for the process in the office.
Suddenly, Du Zhengyi reached over and touched his arm, and whispered to him to sit on a chair in the waiting area and wait for him. Luo Qi was taken aback, came back to his senses and nodded, watching Du Zheng walk towards the corridor next to the office area, he ignored the white eyes of the front desk lady, took a mint candy from the counter, and walked towards the waiting area. At some point there were two migrant workers sitting on the concrete steps at the door, and as Roach sat down on a cheap plastic chair, he remembered that when he walked over, he didn't remember seeing other people in the hollow of the tree.
Roach looked at the mints in his hand, the cheapest circle, he tossed the mints and took them back into his hand. The couple next to him stopped chatting and quietly observed him. Roach turned his face and smiled at them, both mages avoiding his gaze, and the female mage uneasily brushed her hair. He continued to play with the mints in his hand, causing his kitten to crawl out of his pockets and jump on his knees trying to grab his mints.
The two migrant workers sitting at the door also looked back at him.
"Dude, come in and sit down." Roach said with a smile, tapping his chin with the foam words glued to the east wall, "This is a place to serve people, people-oriented, and will not refuse worker brothers." ”
No one answered him, and the two migrant workers turned their heads and leaned together in a low voice, not knowing what they were saying. The mage couple looked at him with more and more complicated eyes, but they restrained themselves from saying anything.
A breeze blew in from outside, and Roach suddenly raised his head and sniffed the wind deeply, it was the smell of lightning, but there was no sound of lightning. His kitten barked, its paws grabbed his clothes and began to crawl on him, he gently stroked the cat on the black cat's back, "Look at you poor little one, why is there static electricity?" It's about to turn into a furball. ”
He picked up the cat, stood up, and walked towards the door.
But it's still a little late. A figure stood in front of him, he was taller than Du Zhengyi, stronger than most mages. He wore a jacket and a baseball cap low on his head, covering his eyes.
"Who are you?" His voice was deep, as if his throat was a speaker, and the sound resonated in it.
"I'll do the subsistence allowance." Rocky said, holding the cat.
The strong man raised his head slightly, the eyebrow bones covered by the hat were very thick, his eyes were arrogant and fierce, and his mandible was slightly protruding. Looking at his age, he is older than Du Zhengyi.
"I met Du Zhengyi on the street, and he said that Teacher Liu Li would also come today, she had taught me before, and she should still remember me and I wanted to meet her." Roach said crampedly, "I also have a little impression of you, are we students in the same class?" ”
The strong man glanced at Luo Qi, and his eyes unconsciously looked at the scar on the corner of Luo Qi's mouth, just now he thought that the man holding the cat was smiling at him, but later he saw that the corners of both sides of his mouth were opened, maybe the treatment was not timely, and even magic could not completely repair the two strange wounds. He was wearing a shabby jacket with a frayed neckline, and he didn't know what kind of magical accident could have caused a mage to fall into such a situation of living with stray cats.
"I don't know you." He said, "And Liu Li won't come today, can you leave quickly?" ”
"Huh?" The middle-aged man holding the cat exclaimed. He was a little alert, but the middle-aged scrapwood looked up at him in shock, the eyes that looked through the farsighted glasses were enlarged by the lenses, the pupils trembled slightly, and the sad dignity of the damage made the top of his cheekbones red. "Du Zhengyi actually tricked me? Me, my black group"
The black kitten seemed to be frightened, and suddenly jumped out of the arms of the middle-aged man, who behaved as if he had lost his daughter, and ran out after the cat in hysteria.
