"Would you accept a lie detector test throughout the assessment?"
Su Jinyan asked doubtfully, "Miss Qingque, it's just the two of us here now, do we still need to go through all those useless procedures?"
Qingque chuckled and said, "You could say this thing is useless, but it is still useful."
"But you could say it's useful, yet it doesn't seem to be very useful."
"Because the human heart is the most difficult thing to fathom."
"It changes over time, and none of us can guarantee that a person of good character will always possess such character."
"But that's all we can do..."
Su Jinyan pondered for a moment: "Prevention is better than cure, right?"
"Unqualified personnel should be screened out during the onboarding process."
"As expected of the Chief of the Imperial Apothecary, he is indeed very strict."
Fortunately, Miss Qingque, who was in charge of interviewing me, was also an inside agent of the Medicine King's secret teachings.
As long as Qingque is willing to help cover for us, we will definitely pass this test smoothly.
"Alright, let's get this over with quickly so as not to delay the rest of our work."
Qingque pointed to the jade tablet on the desk and said, "Do you see this jade tablet?"
"This is a special jade talisman used by our Taipusi to detect lies. It will issue a warning as soon as it hears a lie."
"To test the accuracy of the Jade Omen, why don't you try telling a few lies first?"
Su Jinyan said in a rough voice, "Hehehe, I'm a little loli."
Qingque: “?”
beep—
The lie detector emitted a low, piercing alarm.
Qingque: "Pretty accurate."
Su Jinyan said shyly, "The Grand Diviner is my wife."
Qingque: “?”
beep—
Su Jinyan said seriously, "I am the husband of the Grand Diviner."
Qingque: “?”
beep—
Qingque slammed her hand on the table and stood up: "What's the difference between these two, huh?!"
Su Jinyan: "Just kidding, I don't actually know the Grand Diviner."
beep—
Su Jinyan shrugged: "Okay, I know her, but she doesn't know me."
“A long, long time ago, I had the honor of meeting her once in Changletian.”
Qingque asked curiously, "So what's your impression of her?"
Su Jinyan gave a thumbs up: "Cute, so cute that I want to be the Grand Diviner's dog."
Qingque looked shocked: "Wow, what a bold statement."
"However, sir, I have a question."
"Your personality doesn't match your name at all?"
Su Jinyan clenched his fists, his blood boiling: "Speak your mind and do what you say, that's my way of the ninja!"
Qingque was speechless: "Fine... alright..."
"Next, our assessment will officially begin. How old are you this year?"
Su Jinyan answered frankly, "18".
The lie detector did not register anything.
Qingque glanced at him, puzzled: "Huh, is the jade tablet broken?"
"Doesn't your resume say you're 20 this year?"
Su Jinyan coughed lightly, revealing a pure young man's smile: "I didn't say it was my age."
Qingque blushed slightly, as if she understood something, and gave him a subtle glare.
"Ahem, let's skip this question, let's skip it."
"Next question: Are you a native of the Immortal Ship Luofu or an outsider?"
"Outsiders."
When did you settle in Luofu?
Su Jinyan perked up: "A year ago, I officially obtained permanent residency in Luofu."
"Don't let my past as a foreigner fool you; I'm now a true-blue Luofu native."
"I love the Immortal Boat, I love Luofu! The food in Luofu is delicious, but the food on other planets isn't! Luofu is so beautiful!"
"Hey, guess what? We old Luofu people love this early in the morning. It's so authentic, so delicious..."
"Stop, stop, stop, calm down for a bit."
Qingque covered her head, feeling a bit of a headache. How did this guy suddenly go crazy while we were chatting?
"Why have you come to the Immortal Boat Luofu, sir?"
"I've heard that there are many beautiful fox spirit ladies in Luofu. I want to find a fox spirit lady and have a love affair that never ends."
"But even now, I haven't found someone to date."
"Hmm, you want to have a beautiful encounter with a fox spirit? With your looks, sir, you shouldn't have trouble finding one," Qingque said.
"Thank you for your kind words, perhaps it's because my standards are rather high."
"Yes, it's not bad to lower the standards appropriately."
"Sigh, it's really not easy to date a dozen fox spirit ladies at the same time. Let's just have a few more."
"With your idea, you're sure you won't find it!" Qingque gasped for breath.
This is bad; I feel really tired chatting with this gentleman.
It seems like she's using up all the pent-up energy for complaining she's accumulated over the years.
Qingque took a sip of tea, trying to calm herself down.
Are you drinking tea?
"Correct."
What kind of tea are you drinking?
"Immortal's Happy Tea".
"tasty?"
"...delicious."
Where did you buy it?
"...The Lord of Never Night".
Where is the Marquis of Nevernight?
"...the center of Xingchahai."
"Is the owner male or female? What's their name? When did you buy it? How much was it per cup? Do you give discounts to acquaintances?"
Qingque slammed her hand on the table in anger: "Are you interrogating a criminal here? Am I interviewing him or are you interviewing him?"
Su Jinyan raised her hands in surrender: "Don't get excited, don't get excited, I just wanted to lighten the mood."
Qingque suspected that it must be because she had been slacking off too often that the Grand Diviner sent someone to torment her.
"Sir, do you believe in the God of Bows and Fates?"
"If not, then please state your beliefs."
Su Jinyan asked, puzzled, "Hmm, is there even a need to ask this question?"
“Miss Qingque, you should know that what I believe in is not the Emperor Bow Master—”
Qingque's eyes held curiosity: "Oh? So what do you believe in...?"
Su Jinyan's eyes were resolute: "I will always believe in the Compassionate Medicine King."
Qingque: “?”
The case is solved! So you were a lackey of Fengrao. No wonder you seemed a bit crazy!
