The quarrel at the door of the bookstore lasted for nearly 10 minutes.
After it calmed down, Liang De heard a small cry from the cashier.
Choking with sobs, the little girl called her father and told her that she would not be going home tonight.
When the middle-aged man opposite asked him in a panic, she wiped away her tears and explained everything, telling her father where she was and who was there, so that he didn't have to worry, and then hung up the phone.
That person keeps calling.
She pressed the power button to turn off her phone, and lay motionless on the checkout counter.
Liang De received Zhao Yiyue's call almost at the same time that Zhao Yuhan hung up.
He used his natural power to open a soundproof shield, comforted the technical director on the phone who wanted to put aside important projects and skip work, and then used the "Frozen Mind" account on the Tongxu app to ask Qin Xiao for bookstore monitoring
With the permission of the system, Zhao Yuhan’s real-time updates were shared online with Zhao Yiyue, so that he could know his daughter’s condition at any time.
"Don't worry, Fourth Brother. There is a staff lounge with beds and private bathrooms. There are toiletries. There is a fixed post set up by the Evil Disaster Bureau at the door. I have food, drinks and books to read in the bookstore. Before you come back from get off work, I'm here, it's okay, don't worry too much.
It's okay, it's okay, I was just reading here...Okay, I'll help you to persuade Xiaohan, I'm sorry."
Liang De dispersed the amber inner energy barrier, squatted down and suddenly pulled out the lazy sofa where Li Zhixian was lying.
Li Zhixian's knees were slightly bent, his waist and abdomen were straightened, and the back of his suddenly dropped head and back were only two or three centimeters from the ground, but he still managed to stabilize his figure with the help of his terrifying core strength.
“You asked someone to tell her what the fuck?
If you think she's not being childish, you have to intervene, Li Zhixian, your father has a strong taste."
Li Zhixian kept his leaning posture unchanged, folded his arms with both hands, and said solemnly:
"Commissioner Liang, as the special advisor to the Magical Girls Unit of the Xiangbei City Evil Disaster Bureau, I have the obligation to select talents for the Xiangbei Bureau.
I just checked the relevant files of citizen Zhao Yuhan and found that she independently signed up for two magical girl selections. Although she failed due to inspiration level and cultural performance respectively, her other data are excellent, and her inspiration has now reached the standard.
.
In addition, she has a high level of consciousness and has a strong desire to become a magical girl, which is very admirable. Therefore, I suggest that she be invited to participate in the magical girl trial training organized by the Xiangbei Bureau next month, and ask colleagues to communicate with her legal guardian.
Inform relevant matters.
Is there anything I did wrong?"
"Hey..."
Liang De was about to speak, but he was hesitant to speak. After sorting out his words for a long time, he finally couldn't say the curse word "Longmen" that he was about to say to Li Zhixian.
In this weird laning battle, whoever explodes first loses.
I have to admit that you are stronger now, Li Zhixian, just wait, sooner or later I will think of how to refute you.
After Liang De swallowed the foul language, he calmed down and thought about it, and found that without discussing Li Zhixian's motives, what she did was actually...
Sooner or later, Zhao Yuhan will face resistance from her family.
She is now in her second year of high school, so she is at least sixteen or seventeen years old, and the selection for the Magical Girl Troop of the Evil Disaster Bureau is only open to qualified candidates under the age of eighteen.
Just like the May Day trip, if she really wanted to be a magical girl, she couldn't hide it from her parents for the rest of her life, and her parents would never let her decide such an important thing on her own.
According to Liang De's understanding of the Evil Disaster Bureau system, magical girls are definitely not a decent profession worth recommending to minors.
Although official propaganda portrays them as heroes and angels, gilding them with dazzling golden light, and praising their bravery and selflessness, how many parents want their children to be selfless heroes?
Liang De threw the beanbag back to Li Zhixian, leaned against the bookshelf and flipped through the books absentmindedly.
Several hours later, he heard the sound of water being discharged from the faucet coming from the direction of the employee washroom.
Zhao Yuhan washed her face and stood behind the cashier with red eyes, her back straight and her eyes looking at the dot in the air not knowing what she was thinking.
Liang De took the finished teacup and walked to the cashier:
"Another cup of Earl Grey, with more sugar."
"Um."
He followed Zhao Yuhan and walked to the drink bar of the bookstore together, watching the little girl looking for black tea and bergamot on the pallet with some unfamiliarity.
Three dumpling-like northern long-tailed tits flew out of the screen. They carried the ingredients for Earl Gray black tea in their small beaks and put them on the bar. Then they stopped on Zhao Yuhan's shoulders and gently rubbed her lips with their feathers.
Face.
"Xiaohan, your dad called me. He drove to pick you up after work in the evening. In fact, he has been very busy with work these days and was supposed to work overtime... My car is parked in the basement of the bookstore.
You've never been in a flying sports car, or else..."
"I won't go back, thank you Uncle Liang."
Liang De was silent for a while. He had never been a father and he didn't feel like a father. He didn't think that Zhao Yuhan had to listen to her mother. Zhao Siyue asked him to help persuade her, but there was nothing he could do to persuade her.
"Your Earl Gray tea is ready."
Liang De took the tea cup and said:
"That's okay. Your mother can't make sense for a while. It's a good idea to separate and calm down for a while. How long do you plan to stay?"
"I will stay here until I pass the Magical Girl Enlistment Selection. After I pass the selection, the Evil Disaster Bureau will arrange room and board for me, and I will also have a special school to study in."
Liang De took out his mobile phone and said:
"It's been quite a long time. You may have saved a little less money. What's your account number?
I'll lend you some, and you can pay it back to me when you become a magical girl and get your salary."
Zhao Yuhan pursed her lips and said:
"Thank you Uncle Liang, I can't ask for your money."
"What do you want? I didn't give you money for free. If you want to pay it back later, you have to treat me to a meal. Don't worry, I'm a very picky person. You can't take advantage of your uncle."
Zhao Yuhan stubbornly shook his head and said:
"Uncle, I understand everything.
Borrowing money from you is actually borrowing money from my dad. I don’t want to rely on them anymore. They don’t understand me. My mom won’t talk to me properly. She only gives orders and loses her temper. My dad thinks I’m having a little temper.
Just want to coax me.
I have a place to live in the bookstore and a salary. As long as I sell a few more books and get bonuses, I can support myself."
Liang De nodded and asked a few more questions. After knowing that the little girl still had cupcakes to eat, he walked outside the bookstore with black tea.
It's almost eight o'clock, it's already dark, and Ying Xuetang's branch in Xiangbei has not seen a single customer buying books from morning to night.
Liang De looked back at the billboard on the roof of Yingxuetang Bookstore, which was several times taller than the building. In the eyes of people with good inspiration, the light of that giant billboard almost covered the lights of the entire city.
Why no one comes...
In order to expand its influence in various worlds, Ying Xuetang, in addition to products that can only be purchased with crystal clusters, also has many books and cultural and creative products for extraordinary people in the industry.
Liang De stared at the information on the billboard for a long time and felt that the products displayed above were quite attractive to the extraordinary people in the industry. If no one came, there must be something wrong.
He stood at the door of the bookstore and waited for a while. When the two magical girls in the sky were taking over their shifts at eight o'clock, he sent a message through the wind and invited the magical girl who was about to leave after get off work to come down.
"Commissioner Liang, are you looking for me?"
This is a girl of college age, about 1.7 meters tall, tall and generous. On the handle of the steel broom is a keychain of a top idol, with a bell, which sounds nice when the wind blows.
Liang De pointed back at the bookstore billboard behind him and said:
"I think the things here are quite good, and the store has also been registered with the Disaster Bureau. Why don't anyone come to buy it? Do you know what's going on?"
"Commissioner Liang, you don't know?"
"I don't know. Just tell me. You can choose the items above, and I'll give you the same thing."
"Then I'll tell you quietly. It's actually not a secret...it's just because...Instructor Li is inside."
"Just because of her?"
"Commissioner Liang, you may not be aware of Instructor Li's reputation in Xiangbei when you were transferred from the General Administration... In the cases she participated in, none of those who could have been given a suspended death sentence and tried to get a reduced sentence survived, and those who were sentenced to more than ten years.
None of the cases were returned completely, and it seemed that all the seniors in the bureau had been beaten by her.
She is reading here, and not many people and ghosts in Xiangbei dare to come here."
"What about the people in the neighboring city? You can see this light sign in the neighboring city, right? What about the people in Lingnan?"
"Instructor Li's reputation works well outside...Last time, a sister and I traveled thousands of kilometers across provinces to handle a case. When the suspect on the other side heard that she was from the class led by Instructor Li, she immediately surrendered."
Liang De turned his head and looked in the direction of Li Zhixian in the bookstore.
From Xiangbei to Lingnan, everyone knows it.
Your reputation is really powerful.
Magical girl, awesome.
Li Zhixian, you are so powerful.
This bookstore won't be able to sell a single book at this rate, so I have to think of something...
