A young man's shocked voice suddenly erupted from the small conference room outside. Jing Yuan was startled and stood at the door of the compartment and looked out.
The tall young man stood in front of the door of the conference room, staring down at the ground with wide eyes, his tone full of confusion, "Is there a flood in the space station? Why is there water in the crack of the door!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone in the conference room's heart skipped a beat and they all turned to look at the door.
The heavy soundproof door had not yet lifted up by itself, but in the almost negligible gap below the door there was a glimmer of light reflected from the liquid, which gathered at a slow but inconspicuous speed and spread out in front of the door of the conference room.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing whether they should open the door or not.
Don’t open it, in case danger occurs and there is no one to take charge.
Open it...what if you drown yourself?
The gray-haired girl squatted down with a serious look on her face. She stretched out her hand and touched the water on the ground with her fingertips. Her fingertips rubbed against each other, and a trace of confusion appeared in her eyes. "It's a bit sticky, it doesn't seem to be clean water... and the space station shouldn't store so much water resources, right?"
At this point, Xing turned to look at Estelle and asked in confusion, "Right?"
"Yeah." Esta nodded, but couldn't help frowning, "Could it be that the spontaneous combustion incident caused by the Duke of Hellfire caused the fire extinguishing device to fail?"
Hearing this, Xing blinked and said, "Wait a minute, I have a question."
Under Esta's puzzled gaze, Xing stood up, with his hands behind his back and a confused look on his face, "The Underworld Lord believes in destruction, so is there a water demon who also believes in destruction? He burns the space station one foot and floods the space station the next, giving the Black Tower Space Station a complete set of ice and fire?"
Estelle: ...
It’s confirmed that the pioneer in front of me is a bit despicable.
"There may be such a force in the galaxy, but I don't know." Estelle shook her head solemnly, her head covered with a shower cap and looking particularly dazed, "I don't think it should be an unknown enemy."
Xing blinked, turned around and looked at the closed door in front of him, thought for a moment, raised his hand, and used his authority to open the door.
"boom--"
"Bang bang—"
"Ouch—"
A series of muffled sounds suddenly appeared, followed by a series of exclamations, accompanied by a lively noise, as if someone was complaining about something.
The clerks rolled around in a heap, like a jar of glass beads that had been broken into pieces, each one freed from their restraints and rolling about in all directions.
The gray-haired girl's expression went blank in an instant, and she stepped back cautiously. "Is there a zombie virus in the space station?"
"Let me make this clear first. The zombies will shake their heads when they see my head. You guys eat others first!"
A group of clerks stood up with their hands on their chins, their faces full of resentment.
Seeing this, Xing was stunned for a moment, and hesitantly asked: "What's wrong with you? Isn't it the zombie virus, is it the Sambo virus?"
“There’s no solution to this!”
Sambo:? ? ?
What does this have to do with him?!
Before Sambo could speak, a group of staff members looked at Esta eagerly, with a hint of accusation in their voices, "Stationmaster, you secretly ate delicious food, and everyone in the space station is drooling. Look outside! Everyone came here following the smell."
The clerk seemed a little sad and angry, and shouted: "I don't want to drool either! But I can't control myself!"
Esta blinked and turned to look at Xing, "This doesn't look like the Sambo virus, this is the Crow virus."
Chapter 535: Really crying?
"Do you feel the murderous gazes coming from all around you?"
Xing walked beside Cheng Che, looking at the staff around him who seemed to be working seriously but were actually looking up secretly. He could see a hint of resentment in their eyes, "This resentment is heavier than when I slept for two hours in three days as a commission and was scolded."
Each of them has eyes as red as rabbits, so sad.
Hearing this, Cheng Che did not react at all, "Oh."
After responding, Cheng Che immediately realized that something was wrong.
He tilted his head to look at his friend, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Wait a minute, when did you only sleep for two hours in three days of commissioning? And you got scolded? Who scolded you?"
Xing is a lousy protagonist. It's believable that she sleeps two hours in three days, but getting scolded?
It is impossible to be scolded, Xing can threaten the other party by stuffing a baseball bat in his mouth.
How can this little girl, whose head is full of nonsense and who is occasionally serious, endure being scolded?
Even the little yellow-haired guy next door doesn’t feel so aggrieved!
Hearing Cheng Che's question, Xing stopped.
The girl rubbed the back of her head and thought hard, then shook her head after a while, "It seems not, but when Professor Latio was mean to me, he was scolding me. Although you and Dan Heng didn't scold me, your eyes looked like you were looking at fools. Let me think about it again..."
I can’t think of it.
I can sleep two hours a day and rummage through trash cans for three days, but as for the commission...there is no such urgent commission at the moment.
"Okay." Cheng Che glanced at Xing, took out two candies from his pocket and stuffed them into Xing's hands, "Let's go, we have to go around this road ten times."
star:……
Xing looked down at the sneakers on Cheng Che's feet, then looked at her own high heels that would not get in the way during a fight, and hesitated for a long time, "I wore this pair of shoes to climb over trash cans, fight Doombeast, and kill Phantom, but... my feet hurt now."
"Hold on." Cheng Che patted Xing's shoulder and walked forward, expressionless and calm, "You said you wanted to train with me."
Xing stood there and thought for a moment, then quickly followed, "I said I wanted to work out with you because I want to train my chest!"
She, the star of Xie Xie, also wants to join Cheng Che's team!
"Oh." Cheng Che let out another calm breath. He quickly glanced to the side and retracted his gaze. "The road ahead is long and difficult."
star:? ? ?
The gray-haired girl widened her eyes and was about to retort when she heard a sound from the phone in her pocket.
Xing frowned and took out his cell phone from his pocket and looked at it.
Next to him, Cheng Che also opened his phone and checked the message he had just received.
Something was wrong. Normally, no one would chat with him out of boredom. After all, you never know when he might say something bad, but...
Cheng Che looked down at the strange message on his phone and asked in confusion, "Who is Lily?"
At the side, Xing also looked up and put the phone close to Cheng Che.
Two phones, identical profile pictures, identical messages.
[Rocky: Lily, are you okay? Why haven't you replied to my message yet? ]
The two looked at each other, closed the chat box and put away their phones at the same time, and said in unison, "Fraud!"
The two of them walked slowly along the road, with a white puppy following them at their feet. It was well-behaved and sensible and never ran around.
After a while, the phone vibrated again.
It's exactly the same information above.
Xing looked at the message on the phone screen and thought for a long time before replying.
【Not at all contemptuous: You sent the wrong message, friend. 】
Cheng Che glanced at Xing and said lazily, "You are quite enthusiastic?"
"Of course." Xing replied to messages intermittently while holding his phone in his pocket. He squinted his eyes and looked at the department in front of him and the staff walking back and forth, as if he was estimating his next commission. "So you like glitter very much? You just transferred your pocket money to Estelle and asked her to help you buy gems."
"If I didn't like it, I wouldn't have to spend all my money to buy it." Cheng Che didn't show any expression, just looked at the road ahead calmly, thought for a while and said softly: "Do you want to go to perform with me?"
Xing turned around instantly, "Why me?"
"Because I'm planning to have Sangbo dance with me. Jingyuan will take the money, and you will perform the rock-breaking chest trick." Cheng Che thought about his empty wallet and tried to come up with an idea. "How about we go back to Luofu and team up with Gui Naifen to perform after we finish the space station?"
star:……
Xing thought again and again, "Don't you have any other way to make money?"
"Yes, I work for Xiluwa and assemble parts." Cheng Che had no expression on his face. "I help Clara repair machinery, cultivate plants in the space station, help Jingyuan handle official business, and I can also play cards with Qingque to make money, but..."
He's been a bit lazy these days and just wants to get something for nothing.
Then...
Move your daily piano practice from the room to outside, maybe someone will give you some money.
Xing spread his hands and said, "Okay, but you can still go to Luofu to sell calligraphy and paintings."
"Yes, I'm going to sell couplets under the overpass." Cheng Che had no expression on his face. Just as he was about to say something, he felt his phone vibrate again.
Cheng Che was too lazy to look and moved his gaze to Xing.
[Rocky: I'm sorry, but no matter who you are, if you meet Lily, please tell her that Rocky will be waiting for her in the Black Tower.]
Xing looked at the message for a while, then raised her head and looked at Cheng Che, "I smell a commission? What about you?"
"I smell the sour smell of love." Cheng Che snorted, his voice low and cold, "Sooner or later, I will kill all these couples!"
"Take it easy." Xing stood on tiptoe and patted Cheng Che's shoulder, comforting him halfheartedly: "It's okay, my friend, you have a long life, you can outlast all the couples!"
Under Cheng Che's speechless gaze, Xing grabbed Cheng Che's wrist and pulled Cheng Che to a fork in the road. "Let's go. I'll take you to do commissions to make money. It's really pitiful for a penniless little crow."
Cheng Che: ...
Oh, so why is Duke Hellfire so slow?
Go and rob the money!
"You talk as if you have one." Cheng Che took out his phone and summoned a Jing Yuan to follow the trail of the commission together, and sneered coldly, "I don't have a CP, but I have brains. Unlike some people, they are played around by others, drugged, and have to work hard to do commissions."
As soon as she finished speaking, the gray-haired girl stopped abruptly.
"Say it again!" Xing's eyes widened, looking at Cheng Che indignantly, "You scolded me!"
"She has no wife, no husband, no brains, she's poor, she's mean, and she doesn't even have the guts to make a move." Cheng Che concluded.
star:!!!
"I'm going to cry!" Xing's eyes widened, "I'm really going to cry!"
"Yeah." Cheng Che nodded, looked at Jing Yuan's reply and waited at the elevator entrance.
star:……
Xing suddenly lowered her head and shrugged her shoulders as if she was crying.
