Brave World, I report to the police station in red at the beginning

The girl suddenly raised her head.

"That's what the police officer said! Even though I couldn't get through to them and couldn't contact them at all... he said it was just an over the top joke from my friends! They never! Never would make such a joke!"

Li Mengyu touched her chin.

"That does sound unusual."

"Please, help me! The police officer said that even if they wanted to investigate, there wouldn't be many police forces in this remote area to help, so he gave me the address here and said that if I really thought it was a supernatural event, I could come here and try my luck..."

"Ah~ I'm not doing charity here after all~"

"I..." The girl was embarrassed, "I only have 10 yen..."

"make a deal!"

As if afraid that the girl would not agree, Li Mengyu suddenly stood up from the chair.

Under the girl's strange gaze, he coughed twice, perhaps feeling that his price was too low, and slowly extended a finger to the girl.

"But there is another condition—"

Chapter 8: Preparations that have nothing to do with the commission (I’m dying to keep filling in the blanks)

"Hmm~Hmm~"

Li Mengyu was humming an unknown tune.

Although the office is located in the countryside, it is actually quite close to the city. Not only is there a bus stop, there is even a tram stop.

Right in front of the tram stop, the girl holding the bamboo sword seemed to be hesitant to speak.

It was close to noon, and this place was quite remote, so there weren't many people on the platform, otherwise -

She looked at Jun Qianjing, who was almost completely wrapped in a black cloak. This kind of attire would probably attract more attention from others.

"Haha, don't worry about it, there's a reason for it."

Having said that, he had no intention of explaining to the girl, and his palm fell on Jun Qianjing's head, but unfortunately he could only feel the fabric on the cloak.

"By the way, Miss Sanjo, regarding the ticket price..."

San Tiao is the girl's surname. For his client, he should at least know her name. After all, he can't just keep calling her "hey, hey, hey".

Miss Sanjo frowned slightly.

Things were actually a bit strange. Whether it was the fact that he was always half a body length behind her on the way to the station or the fact that she couldn't even afford the train ticket, Li Mengyu, with a child, was really weird and full of doubts.

But... this guy is my last hope.

"It's okay, it's just the ticket money."

Someone may ask, doesn't Li Mengyu have a bank card with 300 million yuan in it? Why doesn't she use it?

Regarding this point, it is actually quite embarrassing. There is no ATM in this rural area. The nearest ATM is actually in the neighboring city, and credit cards cannot be swiped here.

"The ticket money is not included in the commission fee. I will pay it back."

As he said this, the train arrived at the station. I don’t know what he was thinking, but before getting on the train, he held Jun Qianjing’s hand.

Although my initial thought was that I was worried that the girl would be lost in the crowd and what if she got lost...but in fact, there were only four people on the entire tram, including the driver.

It means that there is no one else except them.

When Jun Qianjing's hand was held, his first reaction was to pull his hand away. Apart from the scratches and blisters on the palms of his hands caused by waving the branches, he also had a resistance to physical contact.

However, the instinctive resistance that just arose in her body was suppressed by herself. She braked suddenly when she detached her fingers and then put her entire palm back.

Although it was painful when the blisters touched her, but...the warm hand holding was something she had never seen before in her life.

"Ah~ Did I enchant that branch too much?"

Li Mengyu naturally also felt the blisters on the palms of her hands. It was a pity that the child had no expression on his face. Thinking back to when she was almost an adult and came to practice this, she cried out in pain and was scolded by the Knight Commander.

Compared with Jun Qianjing's reaction, it is really sad.

The emblem appeared on the back of Li Mengyu's hand. Compared to the knight commander who pursued the training methods of passionate men, when he was the teacher... his methods were obviously much "gentler".

Minor cuts should be left alone, but blisters, which are simply a nuisance, should be removed.

The scenery outside the tram kept changing. After about twenty minutes, Li Mengyu and others arrived at their destination.

Although the shops and other things seem a bit old, they are much better than that village which has almost nothing.

Of course, the first thing Li Mengyu did when she came here was to withdraw money.

Fortunately, the password of the bank card was the initial password 0000. Looking at the 300 million yuan shining on the screen, Li Mengyu withdrew 10 yuan in one breath.

It doesn’t seem to be very thick, with a face value of one thousand... only ten of them.

The rest cannot be withdrawn, it seems to be a daily limit.

Li Mengyu pressed her brows in distress.

But he still managed to return the ticket money to Miss San Tiao.

Thankfully the shops here accept card payments directly.

I don’t know why, but I just felt like Miss San Tiao, who had become a tour guide, took Li Mengyu to apply for a new mobile phone and SIM card. It was a super old-fashioned touch screen, like a small brick.

But for Li Mengyu, she would be thankful as long as it wasn't a flip phone - she bought a flip phone for Jun Qianjing.

Because Qian Jing will probably be staying at his place for a long time, some necessary daily necessities have to be bought. After buying daily necessities, a little skirt is also needed! (suddenly loud)

Although Li Mengyu is not easy to help choose, but - there are still three young ladies.

Just as Miss Sanjo expected, she...became a veritable tool.

After packing and organizing everything and taking it home, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

Just when Li Mengyu was about to start preparing dinner, Miss San Tiao finally couldn't help it.

"I've been wanting to ask you since the beginning. Didn't you accept the commission? What on earth were you doing all day? This has nothing to do with the commission, right?!"

Faced with Miss San Tiao's questioning, Li Mengyu simply nodded.

"It is indeed completely unrelated to the content of the commission."

His honesty made Miss Sanjo speechless for a moment.

She looked like she was about to cry because of him.

But before that, Li Mengyu opened her new phone and spoke while doing "rehabilitation training" on her old phone.

"Well, I was going to wait until tonight to do it, but since you're so anxious, let's just start right away."

As he said that, he took out a card machine from his back, which he had bought when he went out on the street. He wrote down the address, linked the account, and then found that 'that guy' had prepared it for him in advance. He didn't expect that it would be useful so soon.

"As for me, I usually collect money first and then do the work."

At this point, Miss Sanjo gritted her teeth and paid the money - fifty thousand.

"This is the deposit, the rest will be given later."

Not completely naive.

The corners of Li Mengyu's mouth raised slightly.

"No problem, now that we've received the money, we have to start working~ But!"

With fatal twists and turns, he always manages to keep his clients on edge... although in reality it's more about blood pressure.

"I don't think I can have dinner at this hour. I have to prepare something."

Here he directly used the new schoolbag he bought for Jun Qianjing, and put bread, cans of Coke, sandwiches, tablecloths, chopsticks, knives and forks into the bag... Why did it feel weird the more he put things in?

Are you sure you're not going on a picnic?!

"I remember I still have a jar of strawberry jam..."

He went to look for something again.

Jun Qianjing, who had just been asked to take a shower in the bathroom, made eye contact with Miss Sanjo for a moment and then turned his head away.

Her eyes fell on her new schoolbag that had endured so much. It had been a long time since she had a new item like this. Even though she was forcibly recruited by Li Mengyu, she didn't feel bad...

The cute little face with its fingers twisted together reveals its true thoughts.

She pursed her lips, and suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and took out the magenta drive and card box with a note saying "Don't forget this" from the living room.

And stuffed it to the bottom of the backpack, but to Li Mengyu, there was no note attached to that thing before, and it was not in the living room.

Only now—he was looking for strawberry jam.

Chapter 9: Shrine, Now That We Are Here

Winter nights always come quickly.

It was only five o'clock in the evening, but it was already completely dark and the temperature dropped sharply, especially in this kind of mountain forest.

Miss Sanjo, who was holding the bamboo sword, was shivering from the cold, but Jun Qianjing had no problem at all because Li Mengyu forced him to wear a coat before coming.

What's more... she was carrying a bag, which was Li Mengyu's request and was also a form of exercise.

With him watching, it won't hurt the child's waist. What's more, even if the bag is stuffed with so many things, it's actually not very heavy.

Li Mengyu was wearing a thin short-sleeved shirt, and didn't look cold at all. And because she was only wearing a short-sleeved shirt, it was impossible for her to increase the favorability of her clothes.

?????????

"Pattern"

"..."

"Pattern"

Miss Sanjo could no longer bear it.

"How long are you going to look at your phone?"

While she was shivering in the cold wind but still actively cooperating with giving directions, the guy who took the commission and collected the money in advance - had been playing with his mobile phone from the beginning!

What's so fun about a mobile phone? It's so dark now and the steps leading to the shrine are a bit broken. You never know when you might trip over something. It's super dangerous!

These were probably her superficial thoughts. As for the essence, the most fundamental reason, it was probably because Li Mengyu didn't work hard even though she was paid.

"pat"

“That’s about it.”

The phone screen was turned off, and Li Mengyu spoke as if she had put away her phone after being discovered and accused. After all, it would be embarrassing to respond directly in front of the child.

So even though she was angry, Miss Sanjo did not pursue the matter further.

"asshole……"

However, there were still curses uttered softly, and Miss Sanjo seemed to be very resentful as she had been fooled for almost the entire day.

On the other hand, Li Mengyu was not affected at all. He was smiling and looking happy when he came out of the house. He probably really thought of it as a picnic.

The steps leading up to the shrine were brittle from years of disrepair, especially as they got higher up.

It would be fine if you were more careful, as most of the steps were still intact. But Li Mengyu was really good at making people angry. He seemed to have not noticed any problem with the steps at all, and kept stepping on them again and again.

The steps that were originally barely usable have been left with many cracks. The next time someone comes to worship... the probability of something going wrong has greatly increased!

But he was still at the end of the group climbing the mountain, and the moon was too lazy to show up today.

Although they could hear the strange "click" sound behind them, the three young ladies at the front of the line could only see the innocent face of Li Mengyu when they turned around.

Damn it, it's such a waste of your pretty face to be like this and ask for a beating.

Even Jun Qianjing felt that Li Mengyu had gone a little too far, so she gently pulled on Li Mengyu's sleeve. Because she was close to her, she still knew what Li Mengyu was doing.
