I sighed, and then said to An Keke, "I'm really sorry An Keke, I have no interest in joining the Paranormal Investigation Bureau. If you really lack talents in this field, you'd better find someone else!"
An Keke looked at me in surprise. Maybe she didn't expect that I would refuse her. "Zhao Dongfang, are you sure you don't want to consider it anymore? Don't worry, joining us will never cause you too much trouble. You
You can still study at school like an ordinary student. When we need your help, we will come to you. And we will also communicate directly with your school to ensure that we will not cause you any trouble."
Although what An Keke said was sincere, I really had no interest in joining an organization or anything like that, so I had to decline An Keke once again.
An Keke saw that I was resolute and did not force me. Instead, he changed his tone and said, "Don't refuse in a hurry. I might as well do this! Go back and think about it first, and you can give me an answer in two days."
I thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay!"
An Keke looked at me with curiosity in his eyes, "Zhao Dongfang, can I ask you a question?"
"If you have any questions, just ask them directly!" I said nonchalantly.
"Is your grandfather Zhao Jiuzhong?" An Keke stared at me curiously.
"Yes! Do you know my grandfather?" I was stunned, An Keke actually knew my grandfather.
Seeing my admission, An Keke nodded with enlightenment, and then she said, "Don't get me wrong, I don't actually know your grandfather, I just heard about his reputation. His magic is very powerful, and you are his grandson, so your magic must be the same."
It's very strong, and it's for a reason, so we hope you can join the Paranormal Investigation Bureau."
So that’s it! I knew it in my heart, but I still couldn’t help complaining that I, a Maoshan Taoist priest, was a failure, and I had to benefit from my grandfather’s reputation to be favored by this paranormal investigation bureau.
We almost said what needed to be said, and then we exchanged a few words and then left. An Keke proposed that she drive me back, but I refused. I wanted to go alone.
After leaving the Netherworld Bar, I walked aimlessly on the road, thinking about what An Keke told me about the Supernatural Investigation Bureau.
I'm actually quite interested in the Paranormal Investigation Bureau, but joining the organization has always been something I've been very repulsed by, as it's too restrictive.
As I walked, I unknowingly came to a square two streets away from the Netherworld Bar. There was a wishing pool in the center of the square. There were many couples cuddling together in the square, whispering to their lovers.
Love words.
My eyes swept across the square and I found a familiar figure among the crowd, it turned out to be Meng Shiyu.
Meng Siyu sat on a bench in the square, holding a book in his hand and reading quietly.
"Meng Siyu..." After seeing Meng Siyu, I subconsciously called her name.
"Zhao Dongfang!" Meng Shiyu raised her head and looked at me in surprise, and soon a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Immediately, Meng Shiyu closed her book and walked towards me jumping.
"Why are you here?" This was originally the question I wanted to ask Meng Shiyu, but Meng Shiyu asked me first.
"I...I had nothing to do, so I just walked around and ended up here without knowing it!" Regarding the matters of the Supernatural Investigation Bureau, I naturally did not intend to tell Meng Shiyu. These things are not suitable for girls to know, and even if I
Meng Shiyu may not be able to understand it.
"Is that so?" Meng Shiyu looked at me dubiously. It was obvious that Meng Shiyu didn't completely believe what I said.
"I haven't asked you yet!" I quickly changed the subject. "Why didn't you go to school today?"
"Me?" Meng Shiyu pointed to her handsome nose and said mischievously, "I won't tell you!"
I curled my lips and thought, why is this girl like this and not telling me anything?
Meng Shiyu looked at me and suddenly laughed, "The way you looked just now was so funny!"
Seeing Meng Shiyu smiling so wildly, I felt a black streak in my head.
When Meng Shiyu really didn't have the strength to laugh, she straightened her slender waist and drew a perfect arc: "Okay, let me tell you!"
Meng Shiyu stopped smiling and said more seriously, "Do you know there is a legend about the wishing fountain in the city square?"
"I don't know!" I shook my head honestly, what kind of legend could a broken wishing well have?
Meng Shiyu touched her forehead and said speechlessly, "Are you still from Dongcheng? You don't even know about the wishing fountain in the famous city square?"
It’s strange, who stipulated that Dongcheng people must know the legend of the wishing fountain!
Meng Shiyu ignored me and continued, "There is a legend in our city, that is, if you make a wish in front of the wishing pool every Wednesday afternoon when the sun shines on it, no matter what your wish is, it will definitely come true in the end.
!”
Listening to Meng Shiyu's words, I just want to laugh!
Basically every city has a wishing well, and each wishing well has its own legend. The most common one is tossing a coin in the wishing well. The more coins you throw, the easier it is for your wish to come true.
However, this actually makes it easier for homeless people or people who are greedy for petty gains. After fishing out a wishing pool full of coins, it can be worth half a month's salary of an ordinary white-collar worker!
I really didn’t expect that Meng Shiyu would actually believe these things and even take a day off to make a wish here!
I wanted to laugh from the bottom of my heart, but looking at Meng Shiyu’s pious look, I didn’t dare to laugh out loud.
Then Meng Shiyu looked at me strangely, her eyes evasive, and asked softly, "Aren't you curious about what I made a wish for?"
"Um...then what wish did you make?" My eyes were wandering around, not daring to meet Meng Shiyu's.
"My wish is... I hope... that we... can be together!" Meng Shiyu stood in front of me and lowered her head, her whole face as red as a tomato.
I was completely stunned, my mouth was slightly open, and I couldn't say anything.
Meng Shiyu means to me, I hope we can be together!
Is this a confession?
Happiness came too suddenly! It caught me completely off guard!
For a moment, I felt that my world was collapsing. I have always regarded Meng Shiyu as a superior goddess-level figure. I never thought that one day Meng Shiyu would say such things to me!
So when this moment came, I suddenly lost all ability to think.
"What about you, Zhao Dongfang, are you willing to be with us?" Meng Shiyu slowly raised her head and looked at me with wide, bright eyes.
