Hire little monsters in your dreams every day

Chapter 10 Celestial Officials and Official Hats
The heavy rain outside the window continued relentlessly, showing no sign of stopping.

Wu Yun lay half-reclined on the soft sofa, wearing comfortable pajamas, took a sip of hot milk, put down the cup, picked up her tablet again, and continued to look at the food delivery options.

That's right... even though the heavy rain didn't stop, food delivery has resumed!

"The price is a bit high."

But for Wu Yun, price was not an issue at all.

"Cat food... ten bags, please..."

"Canned food... give me two cases first..."

Donghu City is just a small city, no one raises mink, and you can't buy mink food on food delivery platforms.

"They should be about the same, right?"

Wu Yun recalled the starving look on the minks as they ate wild peaches and felt that even if the food wasn't quite right for them, they should be able to get by.

After ordering takeout, he settled into a comfortable position on the sofa and continued browsing the "Dream Interpretation" forum.

In just a few days, the forum's traffic has increased exponentially!
Posts on the homepage keep appearing one after another, and they're different every time you refresh the page.

"It wasn't censored?"

Not only was it not censored, but this little website actually became smoother to browse!
"Could it be that the official attitude is about to change?"

"Should we gradually loosen the restrictions on public opinion?"

Looking for a reliable teacher to teach me Tengyun (a cloud computing platform). Tuition is negotiable!

[Who understands this feeling? I dreamt I was drenched in the rain all night last night!!]

[Holy crap, another missing person case in our neighborhood, just one block from my house!]

Disappearance case?
Mass disappearances?
Wu Yun clicked on it subconsciously.

[There's a school district property next to us, all high-rise buildings with a floor area ratio of around 5. I woke up today to find that several buildings there are empty.]

Does a higher floor area ratio and population density make a place more vulnerable to being targeted?

This is so hilarious!

I heard this is a selection process conducted through other means, and the missing persons are their test.

Is it true or false?

Wu Yun was also stunned.

During this period, he hardly considered any other avenues.

[Is it through the ghost messenger route?]

There's also a route called the Yinshan Passage, which is quite eerie.

Wu Yun put down the tablet and took a sip of hot milk to calm her nerves.

After thinking for a moment, he immediately ordered four more cameras from a food delivery platform to strengthen his home's security!
He scrolled to the next popular post and saw that the poster's nickname was none other than "Forum Team Head Coach".

[Brothers! The ultimate perk for those using the Cloud Speedway is here!]

[Based on the streamer's personal experience, if you fly fast enough and reach the finish line before the night ends, you will see a Southern Heavenly Gate.]

At the foot of the Southern Heavenly Gate, there was a rather slovenly old man who served as the examiner.

[This old man is the examiner; he'll give you a bonus!]

The streamer once received one yuan.

So the question is, what's the use of this one dollar?

usefulness?

Wu Yun perked up.

He also wanted to know its specific uses!
However, the "Forum Team Head Coach" provided the answer on the next floor.

[With just one dollar, you can go to your local area and exchange it for a high-ranking... government job!]

"what?"

Wu Yun doubted that he had seen it correctly, so he looked at it carefully again.

"This...could it be fake?"

Wu Yun continued reading, only to see the head coach post another message.

[Pictures don't lie!]

【image】

The attached image is clearly the cover of a pre-employment medical examination form!

Damn it!

[OP, I also want to receive a bonus. Which department should I contact to apply?]

[Private message you]

Is there any announcement?

There is no announcement yet. If you meet the requirements, please send me a private message or call the citizen hotline directly.

[This is a rumor. I've already reported it. Just wait for the post and account to be banned.]

Haha, report me if you want!

Wu Yun saw that the post already had several thousand replies and hundreds of thousands of views.

Such a large post has not been reported or deleted yet, so perhaps it really isn't a rumor?

Scroll down further and you'll see the first post from the head coach.

[Those who are exceptionally skilled at cloud computing have received even more prize money.]

The policies in this regard are very lenient and flexible. If you meet the requirements, hurry up and register!

Wu Yun was deeply shocked!

"The benefits seem quite generous..."

If it weren't for the fact that he had so much savings at home that he would have liked to start his own business!
……

The day flew by, and the heavy rain outside the window continued unabated, turning the sky from dusk to darkness.

Wu Yun had just finished cleaning the kitchen and sat down in the living room. Just as she was about to listen to some music, she received a call from the property management.

"Hello? Mr. Wu Yun, there is something I need to inform you about."

"Did you see the arrest warrant that was sent to you via WeChat?"

Wu Yun put the phone on speakerphone and went to open the wanted poster.

"I'm watching."

The property manager continued to explain.

"There are some things that are inconvenient to say in writing, so I'll tell you over the phone."

"The sixteen criminals on the wanted list are all extremely dangerous. If you spot any suspicious individuals, please stay away from them!"

"Never think about doing a good deed, and never think about secretly calling the police."

"Only when it is absolutely safe can we report their whereabouts to the police..."

Wu Yun has already opened the wanted poster.

Li Mingming, male, registered residence in Qingmin Community, Lanhe Road, Daiyue City, is convicted of intentional homicide.

Zhao Yulan, female, registered residence in Kuaisu Garden Community, Dongta District, Mingzhu City, is convicted of intentional homicide.

……

It looks much the same as a regular wanted poster.

However, each criminal was provided with more than a dozen photos from various angles, and some were even accompanied by videos.

After quickly browsing through the list and confirming that no one from Donghu City was among the respondents, Wu Yun felt much more at ease.

The property manager is still explaining.

"...Don't underestimate these criminals just because they're young. They're rumored to be incredibly powerful, like ghost messengers, corpse drivers from Yin Mountain, or celestial officials. They can supposedly pull a person's soul out by grabbing the back of their neck..."

Are they all celestial officials?

As Wu Yun listened, he suddenly noticed that these wanted criminals had one thing in common... they all wore hoods and had particularly large heads!

"...They say they're different from ordinary people; they can immediately sense if someone glances at them or harbors ill intentions towards them..."

Wu Yun looked through these people's photos and found them increasingly strange.

They don't have big heads...

These photos and videos are blurry, but almost everyone has a straight hairline inside their hood, and several people have brass-colored ornaments above their foreheads.

The more Wu Yun looked at him, the more familiar he seemed...

Could it be...

That seemingly even hairline is actually the brim of a hat!

The brass-colored ornament above the forehead is a brass button on the hat!
These people all have another hat hidden inside their hoods!
The kind dug out of the floating island, an official's hat!

……

Blah blah blah...

The sound of rain outside the window was dense.

A solitary lamp flickers dimly by the window.

Liu Ye lay in bed, waiting to drift off to sleep.

He put his hands behind his head, frowned, and couldn't think of a good solution.

"This kid is flying way too fast, and he's also incredibly dog-like."

"With him around, what should I do to secure a ninth-grade fruit position?"

Dangdang...

There was a knock on the door, and then, before Liu Ye could answer, the door was pushed open.

Liu Ye frowned, about to get angry.

Upon seeing that the visitor was the eleventh uncle who was in charge of the family treasury, he quickly sat up, relaxed his brows, and smiled.

"Eleventh Uncle, what brings you here?"

Uncle Eleven remained silent, opened the black wooden box he was holding, revealing what was inside... a withered, yellowish human head!

Liu Ye glanced at the heads, then at Uncle Eleven, and subconsciously held his breath.

"This this……"

Uncle Eleven sighed.

"The head of the family asked me to deliver this to you."

"This is a magical artifact that our Liu family has protected for generations."

"It originally had seven eyes."

"Five of their eyes have already been used up, saving the family from danger five times."

As he spoke, Uncle Eleven pulled out the sallow human head.

But on the human head and face, there really were seven eyes, which looked quite creepy!

Five of the eyes had become dark, empty holes, devoid of any pupils.

The remaining two had their eyes closed, covered by their eyelids.

"The patriarch said, take this head."

"The remaining two eyes are yours."

"I only ask that you can bring back the ninth-rank fruit position."

Uncle Eleven lowered his voice and moved closer to Liu Ye.

"Pull open the eyelids of the head, make sure it can only see the person you want to kill, and don't let it see any other random people."

"Because whoever it sees first will die."
