Chapter 28: She Got Mad After Being Insulted by Me in Public 1 (2/2)
I meant, first of all, if all those actors in the Black Street were all the members of the organization, then their wages would add up to an enormous figure.
“To tell the truth, the most thing we have in the organization is money. So if you can be useful to us, we will definitely offer you a great amount of money. You can consider yourself working part-time here as well.”
“Wow, so I can call this my job. But isn’t this job a bit dangerous?” I had never heard of a job which could threaten the employee’s life. If I met someone who was as dangerous as Ye Liusu, I had no confidence that I would be able to get away safely again.
Though I had just obtained three kinds of abilities which should buy me some time, I was still not sure that I could escape from any dangerous situation without others’ help.
Principal Nana who had no intention to hide anything from me just told me all the risks straightly,
“You might be in danger, that’s true. After all, the people with super powers whom even the organization fails to capture are not easy to deal with. Once the information about your ability is leaked, you will be targeted. That’s why I’ll send people to protect your safety specifically. Also, we will authorize the right of the outer employee to you.”
“Outer employee, like Xue Qing and other girls? What’s the difference between the outer employees and other employees in the organization?”
“Outer employees don’t belong to any department but are super essential to our organization. They have the equal right as the ministers of each department and rank only second to the leader like me. In the critical moment, they can also deploy one or several departments to execute urgent missions. Moreover, the Chores Department will send someone to take care of them specially. After all, outer employees are our ‘Elite Members’.”
“Sounds great. And even a newbie like me can fill a post like this?” If I took up a high position like this when I just joined the organization, the other members might be unsatisfied, I guessed.
“If we open your ability to the members of our organization, no one will disagree with my decision... But, there seems to be a few traitors in the organization who have leaked our confidential information to the outsiders. So I’ll put you in the Search Department for the moment. But you will be treat equally as the outer employees.”
“I see. I understand.” In the Killing Ghost event, it had only because someone had leaked information to others that the siege plan had failed. At that time, I had almost died in the hands of the Killing Ghost with others in that street.
It followed that there must be spies inside of the organization.
She had already explained the advantages and disadvantages to me. Now it was my turn to make my decision.
First I looked to the left. Miss Yang was frowning right now. She seemed to be worried about me. Meanwhile, Yu Hui was nodding to me. I thought she was trying to tell me that she would support me no matter what kind of decision I would make.
If I said I wouldn’t join them, Yu Hui would help me escape from here even if they forced me to stay.
Thinking of this, I got less worried.
Then I looked to the right. Xiang Yuexue was looking at me with expectation in her eyes. I could even hear her saying, “Say yes! Say yes! If you say yes, we can play together!”... What a little girl!
Maybe my previous theory was still not right. There really was a lolita who had lived for five hundred years but was still like a little girl mentally or physically. She must be an eternal lolita.
And classmate Li Nai... seemed to have woken up just now with a big yawn. Then she wiped her saliva.
What was she doing here anyway... “Puff...” I closed my eyes and let out a deep breath. Then I opened my eyes and said,
“Fine! I agree to join the organization, principal! No, my leader!” “Mew!”... Huh?
What had I just heard?
She seemed to have... made a very cute sound.
Others who had also heard of that turned around to look at Principal Nana doubtfully. However, Principal Nana still remained calm as if nothing had happened.
“Why are you looking at me? Annnnn Juncheng, since you have already agreed to join us, please come here to sign the contract?”
There was a contract? Wait, before that, Principle Nana seemed to have trembled a few times when she had called my name.
... So, she had signed a contract with me as I had thought... which meant that she had tried her best to control herself until now... I walked to the desk with a weird look on my face. Then Principal Nana pushed the contract to me sternly.
I picked up the contract and then pretended to check the papers carefully. In the meantime, I was actually observing every act and move of our principal, hoping that I could detect something.
