I'm being held captive by a monster

Chapter 150 Hello, my name is Lin Xingan

Chapter 150 Hello, my name is Lin Xingan
8:17 in the morning.

North City.

City Lights Building.

Although it snowed heavily last night, there was not a trace of snow outside the building, and it was clean and tidy.

"Phew! Fortunately, I caught up!"

Lin Xing'an, carrying a backpack, wearing a cotton coat and a cotton hat, held his knees and gasped, looking up at the City Lights Building in front of him, which was hundreds of stories high.

He blew into his palms, rubbed his hands, rubbed his almost frozen face, and walked in quickly!

As soon as he entered the hall, his black-framed glasses were covered with a thick layer of white frost, blocking his vision.

Lin Xing'an stamped his feet on the carpet at the entrance of the building to shake off the snow on the soles of his shoes, while skillfully taking off his glasses.

But before he could wipe it with his sleeve, a man in a suit who looked meticulous walked into the hall.

"Sir, do you have an appointment?"

"If you don't have an appointment, I'm sorry, you may need to make one in advance."

He looked at Lin Xing'an and asked.

This is the North City Light Building.

If you are not a resident of the building and have not made an appointment in advance, even a fly cannot get in!

As the senior security officer here, or security guard for short, he also has the strength of a Ding-level officer.

And the daily job is to intercept people who want to enter the building for various reasons.

And the glutton...

After all, more than half of the people in the entire building are members of the committee.

In the years when the number of people and animals was decreasing, several cases of gluttons assassinating members of the committee were reported every month.

Although it is said that ordinary gluttons feel that the committee has too many privileges, they are dissatisfied and want to assassinate it.

But actually...

The committee is now like a volcano, with fierce struggles over various interests.

Even a small security guard like him could see the tension between the various departments.

So it’s okay if it’s a human or an animal.

It’s a glutton who’s coming, so he needs to be more careful!
The security guard's nose twitched and a dark flash passed through his eyes.

"Sorry, sorry, my name is Lin Xing'an, and I'm Little Bee's teacher."

"I have an appointment with Mr. Xu Zhe from Building 7. I have to teach Mr. Xu's daughter a math class at 8:30."

Lin Xing'an wiped his glasses, but they were frosted again as soon as he put them on. "Sorry, do you have any paper? My glasses..."

He smiled sheepishly.

The security guard looked at him deeply, then took a handkerchief from under the counter and handed it to Lin Xing'an.

"...Little Bee's teacher?"

"Ah, I'm a freshman at North City University."

Lin Xing'an tidied up the handkerchief before returning it to the security guard.

The security guard took it and threw it into the trash can.

"Do you have a certificate? Don't you Little Bees issue a certificate to teachers who provide tutoring?"

"I... have our university's campus card, is that okay?"

Lin Xing'an quickly opened his bag and took out a campus card and several coupons for the campus supermarket.

The security guard took it and looked at it.

Lin Xing'an, Class of 2021, School of Management, Beicheng University.

The photo above...

The security guard narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

"Oh!"

Lin Xing'an took off his glasses and gave the same smile as on his campus card.

"Um……"

The security guard nodded in a muffled voice.

"Um...can I come in? Mr. Xu and I have an appointment at 8:30. If I'm late on the first day..."

Lin Xing'an glanced at his watch, a look of anxiety on his face.

The security guard said nothing and looked at Lin Xing'an's outfit again.

A big cotton-padded jacket that looks warm but doesn't look good at all.

The shoes are so shabby, they look like something only old men and women would wear.

Black-framed glasses were not popular hundreds of years ago.

The entire body, including the watch, probably doesn't even cost 500 yuan.

He must be a fool who works and studies to earn money, or a glutton who has only level E ability and dreams of joining the committee by studying hard.

I guess I haven't even seen what humans and animals look like...

The security guard swallowed, shook his head, and returned the student ID to Lin Xing'an.

"Please register which house you went to and when you went."

He took out a small notebook and waved his hand.

The tone also became much softer.

"Okay, okay!" Lin Xing'an breathed a sigh of relief.

He stretched his still stiff fingers and started writing quickly on the notebook.

Then he looked at the time again and ran towards the community.

"Wait! Stop!"

The security guard's voice suddenly came from behind Lin Xing'an!

His hand slammed down on Lin Xing'an's shoulder.

The temperature in the entire hall suddenly dropped by two degrees.

“…Wh…what happened?”

Lin Xing'an turned around in panic.

"Are you sure this is Mr. Xu from 1403, Building ?"

The security guard stared at Lin Xing'an's face and asked quietly.

The air around him seemed to be getting thinner, causing Lin Xing'an to have difficulty breathing and his face turned red.

"I... am Mr. Xu..."

He was a little panicked and quickly took out a small notebook from his bag.

"Today is Sunday... morning..."

"Mr. Xu, Building 1034, 1034, City Lights Tower... That's right... Oh! It's !"

"Sorry, sorry, my class in another neighborhood is at 1403:."

Lin Xing'an loosened his scarf, took a deep breath, and said with a red face.

The security guard looked at the book in his hand.

It is densely packed with records of Lin Xing'an's daily courses at the university, as well as the various part-time jobs interspersed between the courses.

Tutoring, part-time puppet show at an amusement park, part-time job at a milk tea shop...

It didn't end until early morning.

And the tutor who went to the Talent Apartment in the afternoon was indeed 1403...

"I need money……"

Lin Xing'an scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

The security guard looked at Lin Xing'an deeply again.

The suffocating feeling as if the air was being sucked out of the surroundings eased a little.

This is North City.

There are not many people and animals.

All related projects are monopolized by the committee.

In this deformed city, ordinary gluttonous ghosts are even worse than confused ghosts.

Under the constraints of the rules, one must pretend to be an ordinary person and live for survival, just to make this city look like a real city.

If you have stronger abilities, you might still have a chance to survive.

If your ability is at the common level of Level E, and you want to absorb the darkness in the Yin Spring to improve it, you will have to spend a lot of money to be eligible to queue up.

It is always said that people and animals are trapped in this city.

Aren’t these ordinary gluttons the same?

Thinking of this, the security guard sighed softly.

It was as if I was thinking of myself when I just arrived in North City.

"I'll call Mr. Xu to confirm."

He picked up the phone at the lobby front desk.

Normally, as a small security guard, he would never dare to disturb a middle-level figure in the committee like Xu Zhe.

But looking at Lin Xing'an's eyes at the door, full of hope for the future...

The security guard still made the call.

Half a minute later, he nodded to Lin Xing'an.

"Go."

"thanks, thanks!"
