Lin Xuan and Ye Zimo both love cats and can't resist them when they see one.
Nine-Tailed coughed twice and said, "We made money together last time. Could you get us some better cat food? The cat food Lin Xuan bought has expired."
"What happened to the cat food the pet store gave us? Is it all gone?"
"Ah."
Nine-Tails nodded earnestly.
"Don't mention money to me, Su Qianqian has already spent it all."
Lin Mo remained indifferent, stating that the Nine-Tailed Fox and the others needed to continue eating expired cat food; after all, they were monsters and wouldn't die from eating it.
The Nine-Tails looked dejected as it gazed at the sleeping Three-Tails: "Or perhaps we should just kick you out of the house?"
Chapter 184 The Future Leaders
In the unlit bedroom, the cool moonlight crept in through the window.
Lin Mo lay in bed, suffering from insomnia. Monka McCavie made Lin Mo realize the strength of the opponent Ye Zimo was about to face.
If Monka McCawley is this troublesome, what about the other candidates?
The power of the vampires is always unconsciously absorbed by themselves, and they can't reach their peak strength. What power do they have to fight against them?
Besides, the vampire has been helping me all along, so I should help her in return.
Since her goal was to become the leader of the Secret Society, Lin Mo also wanted to contribute to her goal.
Lin Mo's nose twitched, and he suddenly smelled smoke in the room.
The smell was familiar; it was the same as the transparent officer the Demon Alliance had contacted before. Lin Mo remembered that the business card read Meng Jiaona, and the position was: Commander of the 36th Division of the Demon Alliance.
Meng Jiaona actually came back with me?
Lin Mo sat up abruptly from the bed. If it weren't for the smell of smoke, he wouldn't have noticed it at all.
This captain's strength seems pretty terrifying.
Fortunately, she's a female team leader; if it were a man, then...
No, boys need to protect themselves even more.
Lin Mo looked warily toward the source of the smoke; a woman's cigarette was floating in mid-air, burning.
"Hehe, sorry, I couldn't resist taking a puff. You don't mind me smoking here, do you?"
Meng Jiaona’s slightly husky and magnetic voice rang out, clearly that of a mature woman.
Lin Mo, who was used to sleeping in just his underwear, immediately hugged his blanket tightly and roared, "Is this about smoking? It's about why you followed me here! What about the privacy of an informant?!"
"Ah, this is what I was thinking. You're the only one who's had contact with Beishan Mental Hospital, and you're a wizard, so could you cooperate with us? When we're about to storm in, we'd like to ask you to lead the way. Don't wizards know how to travel through the spirit world?"
Meng Jiaona's voice grew closer as she approached. Lin Mo noticed a pressure mark on his bed; this guy had actually sat down next to his bed!
Wait, she's transparent, but the cigarette she's smoking isn't, which means she's not wearing anything right now.
Lin Mo instantly became even more vigilant.
"We can talk about it tomorrow, at your company, not in my room."
"What are you so nervous about? I'm not going to eat you. What a cowardly wizard."
Lin Mo felt a pair of eyes staring at him in the darkness, but he couldn't see them.
"I'm following you because I'm worried that the other party might do something to you, and I'm protecting the safety of my informant. You don't need to be so vigilant."
Meng Jiaona spoke, took another drag of her cigarette, and spat it all over Lin Mo's face.
You can't blame Meng Jiaona for this. She's been overwhelmed with the disappearance of monsters lately, and after finally getting a clue and paying a lot of money, how could she not follow Lin Mo?
So she had just witnessed Lin Mo getting along harmoniously with the two monsters in his house and discovered that Lin Mo was a money-grubber.
"A stranger suddenly barging in in the middle of the night, wouldn't anyone be on guard?"
Lin Mo countered with a question.
I don't know if Meng Jiaona was nodding, but I saw the cigarette move up and down.
"Cooperating with our Demon Alliance's operations is not free. I can give you an advisory fee, but to be our advisor, you must provide your witchcraft and talismans unconditionally, and we cannot charge you extra."
What is the consulting fee?
Lin Mo asked immediately.
"I'll give you a salary of 2000 a month, and there will be additional subsidies for completing tasks."
Lin Mo's eyes lit up, but remembering that Meng Jiaona had tried to swindle him out of his money before, he tentatively asked, "That's it?"
"Ahem, you're a high school student, yet you're so arrogant. We'll give you a monthly salary of 5000, plus subsidies for missions, depending on the difficulty, ranging from 1 to 50. We'll also pay for your social insurance and housing fund. You're an adult, right?"
Running a housekeeping company is this profitable? Lin Mo couldn't help but have a completely new perspective on the Demon Alliance. A consultant could command such a high salary, a fixed salary, plus subsidies! The subsidies ranged from 1 to 50! They're incredibly wealthy! Incredibly wealthy!
Lin Mo's goodwill towards the Demon Alliance instantly soared, and he no longer cared that his future boss was spying on him.
"I'm an adult now, I'm an adult now."
Lin Mo immediately replied that he was exactly 18 years old, which met the requirements for starting work.
Will that affect my studies?
"Academics... The advisor doesn't need to be in the Demon Alliance 24 hours a day. If you want to study, you can continue studying, as long as it doesn't interfere with the mission."
Meng Jiaona's tone revealed impatience, indicating that she was a leader with little patience and liked to yell at her subordinates at the drop of a hat. However, the high salary she offered was irresistible to Lin Mo.
"Yes, but you still have a probationary period."
"Probation period?"
"Yes, it's a 3-month trial period. This is your stepping stone. Call me when you've made up your mind. I'm in a tight schedule, so I'll give you an answer by tomorrow morning at the latest."
As soon as Meng Jiaona finished speaking, Lin Mo saw his room window being pushed open, a cool breeze blew in, and he heard a clicking sound.
It was clear that Meng Jiaona had already jumped.
"This is the 8th floor. Hmm, the monster should be alright, right?"
Lin Mo went to the window, stuck his head out, and only saw a cigarette butt lying on the ground.
It was only because Lin Mo had excellent eyesight that he could see that the cigarette butt had been flattened.
It seems that my journey as a future leader has not been smooth.
After Meng Jiaona left, Lin Mo began to think carefully. Although he could earn more than 2 yuan a month drawing comics, it was very unstable. He was always at risk of receiving razor blades from readers. Lin Mo was now a superhuman and was not afraid of receiving razor blades. The main problem was that his comics were at risk of being canceled, and he did not receive social insurance or housing fund contributions.
Although Lin Mo's dream is to become an outstanding cartoonist, taking on a part-time consulting job doesn't seem to be a big problem.
The most important thing is to be able to make money.
Lin Mo felt a lot of pressure when he thought about marrying Ye Zimo, who was from a wealthy family. What if he couldn't afford the bride price?
With a family as large as Ye Zimo's, the bride price must be tens of millions.
I need to work hard to earn money so I can get married!
He took out his phone and glanced at his savings account. It was still far from ten million. He currently only had 5 in savings. After deducting his university tuition and Lin Xuan's tuition, there was nothing left.
It seems that he still has a long way to go if he wants to marry Ye Zimo.
Fortunately, Ye Zimo can wait. After all, she is a vampire with a long lifespan. Even if Lin Mo needs decades to save money, she is eternally young and not afraid of wasting time.
With this in mind, Lin Mo decided to lower the living standards of his two cats and have Lin Xuan buy cheaper cat food, since they wouldn't die from it.
Just as he thought of Lin Xuan, Lin Xuan pushed open Lin Mo's door.
She was wearing a white nightgown and holding a cat plush toy in her arms. She had settled for the plush toy because Snowball wouldn't let her sleep with it.
"Brother, who were you talking to? You woke me up."
"Haha, you've come at the right time. Let me tell you, someone wants me to be a consultant. They'll give me 5 yuan a month, plus subsidies."
Lin Mo couldn't wait to share this good news with her younger sister, Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan rolled her eyes, yawned, and said, "So you were just talking in your sleep. Don't bother me, I'm going to sleep."
Lin Mo broke out in a sweat. "Why don't you believe me when I tell you the truth every time?"
Chapter 185 New Job
The next morning, Lin Mo dialed Meng Jiaona's number: "I've thought it over. I accept the invitation, but there are three conditions."
"Stop arguing. You haven't even passed your probation period yet, and you're already talking about terms?"
On the other end of the phone, the irritable boss was already yelling.
Lin Mo couldn't help but swallow, feeling that this boss not only loved smoking and streaking, but was also very irritable and difficult to get along with.
Hearing that Lin Mo on the other end of the phone was silent, Meng Jiaona softened her tone and asked, "What are your requirements?"
Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief when he heard her voice again; it seemed there was still room for discussion.
"First, it can't interfere with my study time."
"Secondly, I can selectively accept tasks and will not obey your mandatory orders. You must give me sufficient autonomy."
"Third, I must ensure that my family is not subjected to retaliation while I am working."
Lin Mo held up three fingers. Although his invisible boss, Meng Jiaona, couldn't see them, Lin Mo felt that he had to show the right attitude.
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.
Lin Mo thought the phone signal was bad, so he took it off his ear and looked closely; the signal was full bars.
Hello? Are you still there?
Lin Mo asked politely, as basic courtesy was necessary, after all, this was his future boss.
"If you have no other questions, get the hell over here! If this case drags on any longer, who knows how many more monsters will die!"
Meng Jiaona cursed again, instantly closing the distance between herself and Lin Mo.
Lin Mo felt that apart from being irritable and prone to scolding, her boss was still quite reasonable; at least she had agreed to all three of her requests.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Mo realized he had forgotten to ask an important question.
