"..."
Xia Panqiu looked back at the screen, shook her head slightly, and whispered, "...How pitiful."
What she didn't know was.
Two people have also commented on Chen Lusi's lifestyle.
Lin Ying’s evaluation is - reassuring.
Her sister's comment was that any dog on the street could live a more exciting life than him.
the other side.
Chen Lusi didn't know that the petite girl he had met once had described him as "really pitiful".
Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
Because to him, there is no such thing as good or bad.
One o'clock.
Chen Lusi went to bed on time - usually he couldn't do it on time, but with the 'human-shaped sleeping pills', this became easier.
"Thanks."
When the little girl's cold little hand covered his forehead again, Chen Lusi thanked her.
As expected, there was no response.
But Chen Lusi found that he was a little in love with this little girl.
Although there are still many inconveniences.
but……
This is the thought.
Chen Lusi couldn't think any further.
Because the next moment, he fell into a deep sleep and fell into the abyss called sleep.
And this time.
He was dreaming.
I dreamed that I returned to the rain two days ago.
This time, there's not just a girl in a white dress, but also a wheelchair, a man with a clock-like head, and a shadow.
They surrounded the dying Chen Lusi, as if saying their final goodbyes.
Then, a sharp buzzing sound was heard.
Mixed with inaudible whispers.
The buzzing noise grew louder and louder until it became unbearable.
Chen Lusi woke up.
He looked at the ceiling and immediately wanted to recall the details of his dream.
But memory is like the urge to pee when you wake up. It disappears like a flood soon after you wake up.
Can not remember.
Chen Lusi rubbed his temples, too lazy to think about it. He picked up his phone to check the time, sat up, and subconsciously searched for the little girl.
But the little girl who was sitting in the chair and staring at the screen in the past two days was not there today.
Chen Lusi glanced at the chair not far away, thought for a while, got up from the bed, went to the bathroom, and went to the balcony.
He even opened the wardrobe and refrigerator to take a look.
The entire room is only a few dozen square meters.
In less than five minutes, Chen Lusi completed the search.
No one was found.
"........."
Chen Lusi gently closed the wardrobe, then leaned against it. After a long silence, he yawned, turned around and walked into the bathroom.
I have to go out again today.
Wash your face first.
Chapter 9 Explanation
April 8th.
Half past nine in the morning.
After Chen Lusi finished washing up and changed his clothes, he went out to take a bus to Pengcheng.
Jiangchang City where he is located is not far from that super first-tier city.
To some extent, they can even be said to be adjacent.
In the past, it was only a two-hour drive.
This is also the reason why he did not choose to set off yesterday.
Speechless all the way.
It's past eleven o'clock.
Chen Lusi arrived in Pengcheng and took a taxi to the building mentioned by Xia Panqiu before twelve o'clock.
It was a fairly famous office building in the neighborhood.
However, today is a working day, and twelve o'clock is exactly the lunch break time for most companies.
So with so many people coming and going, the elevators in the building are almost overloaded.
Chen Lusi waited downstairs for a long time and was a little late when he arrived at the top floor.
It's already 12:04.
There is a company on the top floor, and its registered name is "Tian Ce Trading".
Chen Lusi came to the front desk.
There was a girl standing there. She glanced at Chen Lusi and asked weakly, "Excuse me, who are you..."
Chen Lusi thought for a moment and replied, "...Chen Lusi, Miss Xia Panqiu asked me to come."
"Oh - I see. Please go in, go straight to the end and turn left, then you will find the meeting room." The girl stretched out her voice, showing an expression of sudden enlightenment, and then pointed the way to Chen Lusi.
Chen Lusi thanked him and turned to walk into the company.
But it's a company.
There was no one inside at all.
It is extremely abnormal for a trading company to be so empty, even during lunch break.
Chen Lusi observed the environment as he walked forward and soon found the meeting room that the girl at the front desk mentioned.
Knocked lightly on the door.
"Please come in."
Chen Lusi pushed the door open and walked in, recognizing Xia Panqiu at first sight.
He stood at the front of the conference table. Compared to the casualness of their first meeting, this time he looked much more formal.
This formality is mainly reflected in clothing.
She was wearing an office lady outfit.
However, in Chen Lusi's opinion, he is not very suitable for this outfit.
With her petite figure, she wears OL clothes, which even makes people feel that she is deliberately pretending to be mature.
In addition to Xia Panqiu, this "acquaintance", there are more than a dozen people in the office that Chen Lusi does not know.
There are young and old.
There are young men who look the same age as him, and there are also older men whose hairlines have receded to the back of their heads.
Their attire, attitude and expressions are all different.
But now everyone was looking at Chen Lusi.
"Sorry, I'm late."
Chen Lusi glanced around the conference room and apologized.
Xia Panqiu couldn't tell whether she was happy or angry, she just nodded and said, "Please sit down."
Chen Lusi glanced around the conference room again, then found a chair at the end of the table and sat down.
And he seemed to be the only one who was late.
He just sat down.
Xia Panqiu, who was sitting at the head of the group, clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention. He then cleared his throat and said, "Okay, now that everyone is here, let's get started."
"However, there is a premise that I must tell you first, that is -
You are human beings. Although you are a little special, you are still human beings.
You are not chosen by God, nor are you freaks. You are just ordinary people who are unlucky.
Simply put, they are victims.
Please remember this sentence. Except for some people who joined Tiance Mansion and Kunlun, everyone else please live as a normal person.
Put away your bold ideas.
We have a complete criminal investigation process designed for you.
This is the premise of everything.
The reason why you are here and the reason why I am explaining things to you is not to let you cultivate immortality and become a superman or pursue some kind of power.
I simply want to tell you what you have experienced and what has happened in the world, so that you can have a general idea in your mind instead of having wild thoughts and going astray.
After all, whether it's superpowers or feelings, it's better to explain clearly than to let people guess. Communication is the most primitive and simple process of communication between people."
Xia Panqiu delivered the opening remarks very skillfully.
Most of the people in the audience had different expressions.
Xia Panqiu took in everyone's expressions and quickly reassessed the level of danger each person faced.
Although the process sounds long.
But in reality, only a few seconds passed.
Xia Panqiu paused, then quickly continued, "Well, let's get started."
"I know you've all encountered some strange things, so first, let me define your various strange abilities—"
"We call it 'authority', and its source comes from various legends."
"As for where this legend comes from... I can tell you directly, I don't know."
“Because it’s too complicated.”
"In addition to the myths we are all familiar with, I believe everyone has heard some folk tales about strange and supernatural things since childhood."
"And this is the source of your abilities."
"Spiritual resurrection, mystical resurrection... In short, that's the concept. Some kind of energy has 'activated' the imaginary creatures mentioned in these folk tales. They've become some kind of anomaly, possessing you. You then become awakened and gain some of their abilities. This is what I just called 'authority.'"
Xia Panqiu said this, and did not continue to observe the reactions of others, but took a sip of water and continued:
"I gave an example: the most common legend of gratitude in every region... These stories all follow the same formula: someone saves a non-human creature, and then the creature becomes a human to repay the favor.
They become ordinary and they are all girls... you should have heard of this before?"
