Chapter 74 Returning the Car
Chapter 74 Returning the Car
Another exile planet.
A handsome man with blond hair, broad shoulders, and a narrow waist sat wildly on a high seat, his golden eyes filled with coldness.
"I asked you to find the woman from that night, did you find her?" the man said quietly.
"Boss, we've found her! We've found her!" The orc below nodded hurriedly. "She lives in White City, near the eleventh alley of the main city."
"Fine, come with me and snatch her away." The man stood up nimbly.
However, before any action could be taken, subordinates rushed in in a panic.
"Boss, the mechs have automatically come out and started killing people!"
A moment later, another subordinate rushed in.
"Boss, the city's systems are down, the shield has disappeared, and polluted air is flowing in!"
"Boss, several brothers have died in women's beds."
"Boss, the city wall has collapsed!"
"Boss, all the food in our cold storage has been looted."
……
The man's golden eyes were first filled with shock, then with a burning, blazing rage: "Which bastard dares to mess with me!"
After he finished speaking, as he was about to say something more, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest and vomited a mouthful of purplish blood.
This is clearly poisoning.
Finally, his vision blurred and he collapsed.
"Boss, boss!"
The orc rushed over to help the person up.
A city vanished in a single day.
It's impossible for Rong Fei to have done all these things by himself.
All five of Jiang Mian's orcs made a move.
They both slept with men, and it just so happened that they both appeared on the same day.
What Rong Fei actually did was order his subordinates to destroy the city walls, cause the mechs to go out of control, and kill those orcs.
The system's failure to control and paralysis in the urban area was caused by Rin Yu.
As for the beastmen who died in the women's beds, they were naturally the same beastmen who captured Jiang Mian that day; they were all killed by Chi Lin's subordinates.
The ingredients in the cold storage were naturally handled by people sent by Li Yan.
As for the poison in the man, it was done by someone sent by imperial decree.
The orcs seemed to have all tacitly agreed on one thing: Jiang Mian was his person, and no one else could touch him; if they did, they would pay the price.
Outside the city lord's villa.
Jiang Mian stood at the door with Rong Fei.
"Hello, I'd like to see the city lord. Just tell him I'm here to return the hovercar," Jiang Mian said politely to the guard.
"Wait a moment, let me ask my superiors." The man nodded.
After a short while, the man operated something on the personal computer, then put his hand down and looked at Jiang Mian: "The city lord said that you can just hand over the hovercar to me."
Jiang Mian paused for a moment. If it were an intact hovercar, she would naturally hand it over to the man in front of her without hesitation.
However, all the windows of the hovercar were shattered, and there were multiple bullet marks and holes on the car.
“Um…” Jiang Mian paused for a moment before speaking, “It’s like this, the hovercar is quite badly damaged, so I came to return it and also to ask the city lord how he wants to resolve this.”
The man paused, then looked down at his personal terminal and started working on something. After a while, he looked up again and said, "The city lord invites you in. Please come in with me."
Jiang Mian's eyebrows twitched slightly when she heard the words "The city lord invites you in." She hadn't thought anything would happen, but after she mentioned the hovercar was damaged, the other party invited her in, which made it seem like something bad was about to occur. "...Okay." Jiang Mian gave a dry laugh.
Jiang Mian followed the man inside. When Rong Fei followed her in, an arm was placed across his front, and another guard coldly said, "Orcs are not allowed to enter. Please wait in the rest area next door."
A fleeting, dark chill flashed across Rong Fei's eyes.
Jiang Mian turned around at this moment, and Rong Fei just looked at her gently and said, "Mianmian, you go ahead, I'll wait for you outside."
His gaze was gentle and serene, as if he didn't care about such treatment.
At this moment, the two were separated by an arm, which seemed to blatantly reveal the difference in their identities, as if there was a deep chasm between them, just as the discrimination and contempt of humans towards orcs could not be eliminated.
Jiang Mian paused, a complex emotion welling up inside her.
Such an outstanding person, skilled in medicine and a mechanic, was already more capable than many humans in her eyes, yet because of her orc identity, she couldn't even enter the villa of a small exile star city lord.
"Okay, I'll be out soon," Jiang Mian could only say.
"Mmm." Rong Fei responded softly, his silver eyes calm and clear.
Jiang Mian followed the man inside, but this time they didn't go to the backyard. Instead, they went up to the second floor and arrived at a study.
She saw the young city lord again.
However, he doesn't seem to be in good health.
The surrounding bookshelves were filled with rows of neat books, some of which looked yellowed and curled. People would believe they were ancient books, and even the covers looked like secret manuals.
The man sat at the desk, where a brush, Xuan paper, and an inkstone were neatly arranged on the clean, dark jade tabletop.
In this interstellar age, this is truly a rare sight.
"Cough cough...cough..." The handsome face, with its clear black and white features like ink spreading on rice paper, gently raised its dark eyes, one hand clenched into a fist and pressed to its lips, and spoke with a soft, warm smile, while the other hand extended to invite Jiang Mian to sit down, "Please sit down, Miss."
Jiang Mian noticed a string of sandalwood prayer beads on his outstretched left wrist, adorned with a red jade pendant, which made his hand appear long, fair, and strong.
She paused for a moment, then sat down opposite the man.
"Lord of the city, would you like to take a look at the extent of the damage to this hovercar first? See if we can settle it with Star Coins as compensation?" Jiang Mian asked directly.
“No compensation is needed.” Zhou Qing’s sickly red lips moved slightly. “You just need to work for me for a month to pay off the debt.”
Jiang Mian:......
She has money; can she pay to offset her work?
"I can compensate you." Jiang Mian felt this wasn't a good job.
"No compensation is needed." The statement was gentle but left no room for argument.
"I want compensation."
"Only wages can be compensated."
Jiang Mian:......
No wonder Lin Xuan made her come to return it; she knew what was going to happen.
"What kind of work?" Jiang Mian looked at Zhou Qing. "How many hours a day? Is there a salary?"
Zhou Qing smiled slightly, her dark eyebrows curving gently: "It's very simple. A pharmacist's assistant works from nine to six, so there is naturally no salary."
Jiang Mian: I've been a pharmacist for so many years, and no one has ever dared to ask me to be their assistant.
So she still wants to open her own orc clinic, where she can work as she pleases and still have time to conduct her own experiments.
"A month is too long, half a month is better." Jiang Mian thought that since she would be staying in Baicheng for a long time, she should not offend the city lord, lest he make things difficult for her.
"Okay." Zhou Qing smiled gently, like a painting.
Jiang Mian: ...The time was cut too short.
