"System, are you robbing?"
"Ability advancement is so expensive?"
"How much did you charge me for the bracelet with so many functions and the ability to open up another dimension? What's going on now?"
[Dear, the host's understanding is distorted. ]
There was no emotion in the system's tone, as if it was just interpreting a fact.
[The low prices of auxiliary props and other functions are to ensure the safety of the host and his followers, and provide security functions, while the acquisition and advancement of abilities are not part of the security content. ]
[The system is only responsible for improving the safety of the host and his clan, and does not provide any powerful assistance. ]
Hearing this, Luo Shu raised his eyebrows, then raised his hand, pinched his eyebrows and said:
"If I die because of my lack of strength, wouldn't you be at a loss?"
[If an unfortunate event really happens, the system will only provide reincarnation services and continue to wait for the host to revive in the next life. ]
"So we can start over again in the next life?" Luo Shu grinned, but he didn't feel very happy in his heart.
Next life? Who knows if it will still be me in the next life? And what you said is very informative. Are you sure about me?
"Forget it. I have no chance of upgrading my abilities for now..."
Luo Shu sighed, but he knew in his heart that it was impossible to advance his abilities in a short period of time. Although he could upgrade ordinary skills, he still needed points as a guarantee.
If he advances, if he gets injured, he won't even have enough money for medical treatment, and his death will be in vain. At least he can save up 5,000 more points before he dares to work on his abilities.
"Okay, let's change the question. Why is there such a big gap between Eriri's points and Kasumigaoka Utaha's?"
As the first follower, Kasumigaoka Utaha brought Luo Shu a profit of 6188 points, but the second follower, Eriri, brought a high profit of 9000 points, which made Luo Shu puzzled about the profit rules of recruiting followers.
Moreover, the monthly points supply between the two differs by as much as three times, which is obviously a problem.
[Answer: The difference is because Sawamura Eriri's influence in society far exceeds that of Kasumigaoka Utaha.]
"Exceed, you mean..." Luo Shu suddenly remembered at this time, there are two famous beauties in Fengzhiqi Academy, one is a new novel writer in society, and the other is a master of books behind the scenes.
Compared to writers like Kasumigaoka Utaha, it is obvious that Eriri, who drew books that caused countless poor "little lives" to die tragically at the hands of their fathers, is more "influential".
"So, this means that every young man who is killed will become the salary points I pay to Eriri? Why does this sound so weird?"
But when he thought about the fact that after recruiting Eriri, the monthly points supply increased by 300 points, which was three times that of Kasumigaoka Utaha, Luo Shu felt that things like notebooks were really harmful.
Thinking of this, Luo Shu sighed, took out his mobile phone, silently saved the personal interface of Teacher Kashiwagi Eri, then frowned and said:
"System, there is one more thing. Both Shiyu and Eriri have restrictions on their abilities. This restriction should be possible to remove, right? It can also be used to advance abilities?"
[Yes, I need to upgrade my skills. Do I need to provide the upgrade information? ]
"Forget it. I have no money and it's useless to look at it..." Luo Shu immediately stopped the words below the system.
He doesn't want to hear about money now, so don't mention money to him.
Tired of heart!
Besides, I don't have the money to upgrade my own abilities, so how can I upgrade my members? Isn't that cheap? Thinking of this, Luo Shu shook his head, walked forward for a distance, and there was another "pop" sound.
"Ok?"
Luo Shu paused, looked down at the crimson wallet at his feet, and narrowed his eyes:
"Another unexpected gain?"
Luo Shu, who had been heartbroken by unscrupulous businessmen, suddenly felt better after finding two wallets while working.
Just as Luo Shu was about to pick up the money, a female voice sounded behind him:
"My dear, your luck seems to be unexpectedly good."
Hearing a strange female voice coming from behind him closely, Luo Shu immediately stopped what he was doing.
(Activity time: January 1 to February 21)
Chapter 17: Orange Kirika
Standing behind Luo Shu was a working woman with her golden hair in a bun.
The other person was wearing sunglasses and was not tall, probably less than meters. However, his legs in black stockings were exceptionally slender and straight, with a very good leg shape. Although the curves of his upper body were also good, the most beautiful part was indeed his legs.
"Looking at a woman you've just met for the first time like that is considered sexual harassment, right?"
The woman in front of him reminded him of this, and Luo Shu looked away a little embarrassedly.
However, at this moment, the man in front of him said:
"Has anyone told you that your eyes are a little too sharp..."
"Sorry, I've never heard of this." Luo Shu said this and turned sideways, ready to make way for the other party to leave.
However, at this moment, the woman in front of him pulled up her sunglasses, looked at him for a while and said:
"Aren't you going to give my wallet back to me?"
"Uh..." Luo Shu, who was holding the wallet in his hand, was suddenly embarrassed.
"There should be 200,000 yen in my wallet, as well as my driver's license. My name is Tachibana Kirika. Oh, and there should be two black bank cards."
Hearing this, Luo Shu pretended that he had just found out about it. He opened his wallet and checked it. He indeed found a driver's license with a photo and name that matched his.
Seeing this, he shook his head in guilt and speechlessness, then handed the wallet to Ju Kirika in front of him:
"Sorry, I didn't know this was your wallet..."
Ju Wuxiang took the wallet, casually took out the remaining money from it, handed it to Luo Shu and said:
"Here, this is the reward for returning the wallet."
Luo Shu looked at the woman holding cash in front of him with a subtle expression, wondering if this was a private room in a gigolo club, and he was the gigolo who was ordered by them.
While he was still thinking and not coming back to his senses, Tachibana Kirika on the other side smiled and said:
"Are you surprised? According to government regulations, if you find lost property, you will be rewarded 10%-20% of the lost property. However, this wallet is too valuable and I don't have enough cash. So if it's only 20, can you accept it?"
Hearing what Ju Wuxiang said, Luo Shu's thoughts of not accepting charity immediately dissipated:
"I'm just an ordinary student, I don't dare to break the law."
After saying this, Luo Shu took the twenty 10,000 yen bills from the other party, thought about it, and put them directly into his pocket.
People have given you a way out. It's free money, so why not take it?
Seeing his actions, the blonde in front of him kept smiling. She looked at Luo Shu and said in a subtle tone:
"It seems like you're a little financially strapped lately, little brother?"
"I think there should be no one in this country who doesn't like money." Luo Shu said his true feelings as if jokingly.
At this time, the corners of Ju Kirika's mouth rose, as if she had heard something gratifying:
"In that case, do you mind if I introduce you to a well-paid job?"
"...Cowherd?" Luo Shu looked at him again and asked tentatively.
"No, it's an official job." Tachibana Kirika said this and emphasized: "I'm a civil servant directly under the management of the Metropolitan Police Department and the US military stationed in Japan."
Hearing the other party mention the word "official", Luo Shu seemed to be unable to hide the strangeness in his heart, and said with a subtle expression:
"Are you kidding me? How can the Metropolitan Police Department get involved with the . military stationed in Japan?"
At this time, Ju Kirika took off her sunglasses, put one hand on her waist and said:
"Of course not under normal circumstances, but for someone like you, it will happen?"
"....So, did I do anything illegal?"
Seeing the other party's true intentions, Luo Shu, who had been wary since Ju Wuxiang introduced the job, immediately frowned.
"Not really. Of course, if I hadn't seen it, I would have pretended it didn't happen. But that was only before today."
Tachibana Kirika twirled the sunglasses in her hand, and then she said in a relaxed tone:
"And the premise is that you are my subordinate."
Hearing this, Luo Shu didn't understand what the woman in front of him meant. He was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile:
"Isn't this a blatant cover-up?"
Is there anyone who recruits subordinates in this way? Luo Shu wanted to complain about Ju Wuxiang's behavior, but considering that the person in front of him was an official, he did not dare to resist too obviously.
Of course, it was also because the system could provide the function of instantly moving back to the base by consuming points that he had the confidence to test it here:
"How did you find me?"
Hearing Luo Shu's words, Ju Wuxiang raised her hand, as if to touch Luo Shu's cheek.
He leaned back slightly to show his resistance.
Seeing this, Ju Kirika stopped what she was doing, then pointed at Luo Shu's eyes and said:
"The skin that is being stared at will feel a stinging sensation, which is proof that your mental strength is beyond that of an ordinary person, brother."
After saying this, Ju Wuxiang took out a cigarette from her pocket, shook the pack, picked up a cigarette and said:
"You must be a person with a newly awakened ability. You haven't received any training and you let your mental power run wild... For a warlock, this feature is too conspicuous. It is a mistake that only beginners would make..."
"By the way, warlock is a general term here. Onmyoji like to call themselves Onmyoji in the Onmyoji Bureau. In America, they are people with super powers, and in the East, they are Taoist priests and magicians."
"Would you like one?" Ju Wuxiang lit a cigarette and handed it over. "It's made from pure Chinese herbal medicine and has the function of stabilizing the mind. Of course, you can't smoke too much."
"Sorry, I don't smoke."
Luo Shu blocked the cigarette that Ju Wuxiang handed over with his hand and said with a helpless expression:
"So, you specifically stopped a person like me who had just awakened, just to recruit me?"
"That's right." Tachibana Kirika blew out a smoke ring and said with a charming smile: "Like I said, I belong to a special department under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Police Department and the US military stationed in Japan. Because there is a shortage of talent recently, do you want to try to come in and get a job?"
At this point, Tachibana Kirika said with a smile:
"Monthly salary of 50 yen after tax, two bonuses per year, 150 million yen each, one day off per week, housing subsidies and special leave, and travel with female members."
At the end of her speech, Tachibana Kirika winked at Luo Shu ambiguously, as if hinting at something.
However, after hearing this, Luo Shu's reaction was very subtle.
This afternoon he was using various benefits to lure Ying Lili to join the gang, and after school he was recruited by Ju Kirika in a similar way. What is this? Is this a changing trend?
"What will happen if I refuse?"
"Not so good, probably just become a key observation person, report to the Metropolitan Police Department twice a week, maybe they will be lured by them with a high salary, but the atmosphere in the workplace of the island country... young people like you should know something..."
At this point, Tachibana Kirika said half-jokingly:
"Will you choose between being exploited by a group of old male superiors or being exploited by a mature older sister like me? I think your preference should be obvious, right?"
Hearing this, Luo Shu was silent for a moment, then reminded: "Shall we talk here?"
"Oh?"
Ju Wuxiang looked at Luo Shu with a little surprise, as if she didn't expect him to be so tactful:
"That's right, come with me."
Ju Wuxiang turned around, looked at Luo Shu sideways and said:
"It just so happens that there is a coffee shop nearby that I often go to."
(Activity time: January 1 to February 21)
Chapter 18 That’s a good question
It was almost 7 o'clock in the evening.
A cafe in an alley in Chiyoda Ward.
Luo Shu looked up at the sign of 'LycoReco' written in fancy words at the entrance of the coffee shop, and then saw Ju Wuxiang, who had already opened the door of the coffee shop, turned her head and said to him:
"Would you like a cappuccino?"
"No, I like my latte with raw coconut."
After hearing Luo Shu's answer, Ju Wuxiang asked in surprise as she entered the coffee shop: "What kind of weird way of eating is that?"
