Vol 5 Chapter 1 (2/2)
“Chu, you can try it” Senioron the glass twice, “You’ll be able to get it, it’s just so that depends on luck”
But my luck has always been really bad…
“Look at the circle on the top” Senior looked at the small hole his marble went into, “You just have toas you think this way, one tih”
Neither ht? I stared at the hole for a moment Nn, since senior already said to do it this way, maybe I could really make my marble enter that hole
Then, theinto that hole!
“Yeah!” I won on the first ti pachinko!
I’m very lucky today
Senior and I exchanged our six sausages with the uncle for two hotdogs Both of us were standing at one side, eating while waiting for the person as looking for senior
The sounds co were very loud, where there were still workers walking up and down, and shouting Soroup co to their work Since senior and I probably looked out of place, there would be one or two curious people ould occasionally approach us and ask a few questions After telling them ere students, the people would then leave
“This tastes really weird” Senior said while chewing on a hotdog
“When you guys cauys eat the snacks over here?” Which part tastes weird? I thought it tasted really delicious At least glutinous rice sausages were homemade, completely different compared to those plastic skin products that couldn’t be bitten off
Senior shook his head, carefully tearing open the outer layer of the paper bag a little, “I ca work If I have to stay overnight, the restaurant or hotel would prepare food for us, so I never thought of buying food from the roadside”
No wonder senior asked me about red bean biscuit before Wait awork, but aren’t you eating now?” I stared at the hotdog in senior’s hands, and one-third of it was already gone
“Today, I only planned to investigate, and forlanced atthe sauce that got on his fingers He absolutely look like it kne to eat this, for his movements were very careful and familiar, “If it woke up because the seal broke, I would need some time to determine the type of seal that was used”
“Oh” I felt rather relaxed It should be a rather siht?
I cru and threw it into trash can in Uncle Sausage’s booth
“Ah, what kind of school are you guys from?” After a while, when there was no e curiously and casually asked, “Why are there Blacks and Purples?”
“It’s just a normal school that helps others to deal with some stuff” I really don’t kno to explain our school to Uncle, since it was just two o when I asked the same question
Senior was still eating, and he wasn’t planning to join in on our conversation
“Is that right? Ah, nowadays kids have to help their school deal with stuff?” Uncle Sausage was uncertain and very puzzled while glancing at senior
“That’s right, to earn some pocket money” I simply used the simplest sentence to conclude the topic
If he knew thesome pocket money,” he would definitely be extremely shocked
Uncle Sausage asked some more stuff about the school, and was then interrupted a few seconds later
“Dad!” Appearing suddenly in front of the booth, and interrupting our conversation, was a capable looking older sister wearing a dark blue office suit with neatly tied hair, and typical high heels Just by looking at her, she gave off a feeling of a director in an office, “You don’t need to always come here to set up the booth”
With a thud, senior threw the garbage into the trashcan, and took out a tissue to wipe his hands
“Sister, this two youngsters said they were looking for you” Uncle Sausage revealed a hearty and said to the lady Co what the other person just said, he continued, “The people whoo; they said they were people from it”
The lady looked and senior atat us back and forth, before sta, “Someone introduced me to look for you, but you are a little…”
Too young, I know, I’ll help you to continue
“If you doubt our work ability, then there’s nothingmy effort to prove myself to someone else” Senior coldly snorted, and simply turned around and left
Is this really alright? …Really not turning back?
I quickly ran to catch up, “Senior, she is the client, right?” I walked with senior for a rather long distance, passing through an intersection where there were traffic lights He didn’t even think of turning back, he just left
“So what?” Senior glanced at o find someone else, wouldn’t that be better? And this would also allow me to save time”
Senior’s ability most definitely didn’t need to be doubted… but the problem was normal people wouldn’t know it!
I followed him into a convenience store across the street, and as soon as the automatic door opened, other than the sound of the e ca on our face
I haven’t had this kind of feeling for a long time I looked at the abundant candies and biscuits everywhere; it was also a scenery I missed
“Chu, we are different froy users” Senior walked over to the cabinet where the drinks were, opened it, bent his body, took out two bottles of honey soy out of the automatic door, he threw one of the bottle to me, “Trust and confidence is the most basic requirement In her case, someone introduced us to her, but she herself doubted the people who, her degree of trust was greatly reduced As a result, even if we really did solve her probleed us or just the thought of her profiting from this event”
“Without getting trusted for a job, I wouldn’t accept it”
In fact, I don’t quite understand senior’s , I just felt it was rather stubborn
“Then we should just ignore the problem?” What about the seal?
“It’s so humans created, so I don’t really care” Senior snorted, “But she is not my only client”
There’s a second one?
Senior brought me to the templeearlier
“My other client is over here” Senior looked at the temple and said
“Ah?” Isn’t this place the place where senior said he was curious of how many spirits would faint because of the smoke?
At this moment, the smoke in the temple seemed to have thickened, and I realized a wisp of white s, the kind which will disperse as soon as the wind blew Not long after the wisp of smoke appeared, in a matter of seconds, someone suddenly appeared out of nowhere
It was a little girl, probably about eleven or twelve years old, and she looked like an eleh school student She looked very decent, wearing a blue pleated skirt and a white uniform shi+rt
“Client?” I suspiciously looked at Senior
“Nn” Senior slightly nodded towards the little girl, “I’ve kept you waiting, this is the first ti and Autumn”
The girl sh, Black Robes are calm people As soon as I saw you, I felt reassured” Then, she turned towards htly, “This person must also be a student froure in the future”
I had a feeling it would be hard for me to become powerful even in the future
“It would take hi time” Senior curved up a cold s salt over my wound, “I received a notice, but I still don’t knohat is it that I can help you with?”
The girl pointed at the building under construction, it was the same one we had just came from, “That place is supposed to be the place where the Beast of Scroll is sealed However, it was bought by so used to construct buildings The original seal was broken, and now the Beast of Scroll is sloakening I’ht happen”
Uh, I felt like I had seen this plot somewhere before Isn’t it in manhuas!?
So underneath stor the hurate the seal, and it would then becoain The humans would live a happy life, THE END
Bang! Senior smacked me behind my head and interrupted my delusion
I suddenly felt so, it should be suht now, if it’s at school then it’s fine However, even e’re back in our world, why didn’t it feel hot?
In the past, in this time of the year, it should be extremely hot that I would have turned into a dried corpse In addition, the sky looked rather dark, and the surrounding air seemed to be stuffy
“A typhoon is co” Senior stood next to me, and lifted his head to look at the sky I didn’t knohen, but the sky had started to turn grayish, and the clouds werevery quickly
That’s right, in the previous years, in this time of the year, there would always be typhoons, and schools had to stop classes because of it
Typhoons are the students’ good gospel!
However, my current school shouldn’t have any typhoon that will allow us to have holidays, right? Nevertheless, the school kept on giving us holidays, so whether or not there was a typhoon, there was not much of a difference
“According to my speculation, the Beast of Scroll is afraid of wind and water If the typhoon cothen the tilanced at the sky, “However, this is not a permanent solution I hope the Beast of Scroll could be moved to another place as soon as possible, to avoid interfering with its sleep”
Senior nodded, “Alright, I will definitely deal with it”
An extremely confident reply
I guess, if it was s I needed to learn were still bountiful There should be a day when I could be like senior, right?
Should be, it was definitely should be
“Then I’ll be requesting help froirl’s body slowly turned into white sht in front of us
“This way, the entrustment is done” Senior took out a cell phone froe so and Autu on used to be a lake, but it was later filled up due to constructions of buildings, so she is currently living together with the spirits of this temple”
I looked for a while, this is a Te of a Lake God
“She has already been forgotten, since there’s no one here who knows there used to be a lake here We only knew of it because everything was recorded in the books After you go back to the dor away his cell phone, senior lifted his head, and his black hair was in ablown by the wind
“Alright” I nodded my head, and noted it down Nevertheless, I wonder if there was any way to investigate the record in the library to find out more about the constructions here?
Just as ere about to decide what to do, and senior also seetowards us
It was the office lady fro after us
“Both of you, I’m so sorry” The lady was rather out of breath when she stopped in front of us She then handed a business card to us, “I’ Construction Company I’ain?
Senior took the business card, frowned as he looked at it, and then he passed it to me
On top was printed with tords “Hong Yue,” and next to it was the job title “Chairman’s Secretary”
“I made a call for verification I’ive me if I offended you” She very politely bowed towards us, “I want to re-entrust you to help my company to resolve some matter”
I secretly glanced at senior Hong Yue looked really troubled If senior doesn’t accept it, she would, of course, look for soht?
Red eyes glared at me
“Recently, in our construction site, the place where you aiting at, earthquakes would often occur at night, but the residents nearby said there was no such thing However, everywhen the workers arrived, they would find parts of the construction had collapsed So ere all very troubled by thisto refuse, the lady i for your help, or else our coo on”
It seems pretty serious, yeah…
“Alright, we can help you” Surprisingly, senior answered really straightforwardly, “But this is notto do it”
I saw a finger pointing at me
…Wait a minute! Me?
