Chapter 44 Hanfu Beauty

"I'm Wu Ming, don't you recognize me?" I said with a smile. I didn't expect that after her death, she would come here to work.

Liao Xin shook his head: "I don't know... have we met before?"

I looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping, and then asked her in a low voice: "Do you know whether you are alive or dead?"

Liao Xin trembled for a while, with a horrified expression: "You! Who are you!"

It seems that she knows that she is a "ghost".

"I was the hearse driver who transported you from the water tank to the funeral home."

Liao Xin narrowed his eyes: "Hearse driver...Wu Mian...White Dragon Envoy?"

"That's right, I am the envoy." I said with a smile. Since I am a ghost, you have to respect me, because in the ghost world system, the envoy is a fifth-grade coffin. I checked that the ninth-grade Zhongzheng system corresponds to modern times.

His administrative level, a fifth-rank official, is almost equivalent to the local deputy chief executive, which is already very powerful!

But Liao Xin was not afraid of this coffin (her father's coffin was bigger than mine) and just nodded: "I remembered, my father told me about you, thank you."

Okay, I don’t even use “you” anymore, it’s better not to mention it and just be a customer.

"Who is that...the waiter with the long and straight legs?" I asked, is the chopstick leg promoted and no longer working here?

"You say Xiaoli, she is waiting for the guests upstairs, do you want me to ask her to come down?" Liao Xin asked in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.

"No, I just want a cup of coffee, can you make it?" I asked. The coffee machine is at the front desk, and the kitchen is responsible for making simple meals.

"You can try it if you're new to it." Liao Xin said with a smile.

I picked up a window seat and waited. Five minutes later, a cup of Americano coffee with ice cubes floating on it and steaming hot was delivered to me.

"Fifteen yuan, WeChat or Alipay?" Liao Xin took out a paper card from the pocket of her maid uniform, with a green front and blue back.

"...Do I still need to spend money?" I smiled while sipping my coffee.

"...No one told me that you don't have to spend money?" Liao Xin frowned, she was not sure either.

Forget it, it's not hard to help her, I paid her fifteen yuan. At this time, a new customer came, and Liao Xin went to greet her.

I'm very curious. She works as a waiter here so blatantly. What if her former friends and classmates come and recognize her? I don't know who arranged for Liao Xin to work here. I have to talk to Xie Xin'an when I have time.

To report, this is obviously an ill-considered personnel arrangement. Even if the Yin difference is relatively magical, it cannot be so reckless. What should I do if it causes adverse effects in the Yang world?

Don't tell me, this coffee is really good, better than the one made by Xiaoli with Chopstick Legs. I couldn't help but pack a cup and save it for when I'm working in the evening and drink it when I feel sleepy.

The coffee is good, but the simple meals here are hard to describe. I didn't go to the back kitchen to check, so I don't know if the chef inside is a human or a ghost.

Before leaving, the little beauty with chopstick legs came down from upstairs, greeted me warmly, and introduced Liao Xin and I to each other.

"We know each other," I said with a smile, "Are you serving Master Bai up there?"

Just now Liao Xin said that Chopstick Legs was waiting for people upstairs. I guessed it was Xie Xin'an.

"Yes, but I am not only serving Mr. Bai, His Highness Yao from the Onmyoji Division is here for a visit, and Mr. Bai is accompanying His Highness!"

I have heard of the term Yin-Yang Division, which sounds like it should be an organization in the underworld that is specifically related to Yin-Yang affairs. Xie Xin'an is a big coffin in the Yin-Yang Division, but he is not the person in charge, he is just the person in charge of the Northeast area.

Just as I was talking, the sound of high heels was heard from upstairs. I looked up and saw Xie Xin'an wearing a white "Hanfu". She was very brave to wear Hanfu with high heels.

"The stairs are very steep, please be careful." Xie Xin'an raised his head and greeted, and then, another beautiful figure appeared from the corner of the stairs, also wearing "Hanfu" - I don't understand the history of the development of national costumes, and for all ancient costumes

, I call it "Hanfu".

She is wearing a black "Hanfu", which is not like women's clothing, but more like men's clothing. It is a black robe with a slanted placket on the chest (you can easily take out ancient clothes like silver coins from it), and a "belt" tied around her waist.

"There are three pieces of emerald green jade, one large, two small, and inlaid in the belt. It looks both warm and cold at the same time. It doesn't appear to be an object from the Yang Realm at first glance, but it should be quite valuable.

This should be Her Highness Yao from the Onmyoji Division. Wait, Your Highness? Is she a member of the royal family of the underworld?

I subconsciously made way for the passage at the top of the stairs. Xie Xin'an came down and stood in front of me, blocking me behind. Maybe he didn't want me to show up, but when the beautiful lady in black robe came down, she still stopped.

, glanced towards me.

"Oh, Your Highness, he is the new White Dragon Envoy. He is a rookie and doesn't know anything yet." Xie Xin'an explained in a low voice.

The woman in black robe had no expression on her face, and without even nodding her head, she walked towards the door of the cafe with square steps, hands behind her back.

Judging from this gesture, it must be an inspection.

The two beauties in period costumes, both with first-class looks and figures, naturally attracted the attention of other customers in the cafe. They all stared at the door. However, when Xie Xin'an went out, she suddenly turned back and sprinkled a large amount into the cafe.

Golden powdery stuff.

“It smells so good!”

“It smells so good!”

"Ah! I'm going to float!"

The customers seemed to be going crazy and began to lift their noses to "sniff" the gold powder in the air.

I know that Xie Xin'an is full of tricks, so I quickly hold my breath.

After about ten seconds, the guests calmed down. It was as if time had gone back five minutes. They returned to their original state, sitting in their original positions and doing whatever they were supposed to do.

I looked at my watch suspiciously. Damn it, it was not an illusion, but the time here had really been set back to five minutes ago. I looked at my watch when I finished my coffee just now, and it was five twenty-four.

It's now five twenty!

Mechanical watches don’t have problems like electronic watches. They are full of interlocking gears. Without pulling out the watch lugs to adjust the time, the watch was set back five minutes. There is only one explanation: the time and space here,

It did get dialed back for five minutes!
Chapter completed!
