Get off work and become a magical girl

Chapter 185 Begging
At noon on the same day, Lin Yun was dealing with a troublesome customer in the director's office of the Bureau of Different Strategies.

A woman in a scruffy robe was sitting at his desk, holding a lunch box, and wolfing down the food.

"Happy, happy."

She chewed the food in her mouth, and said in a vague voice: "I haven't eaten so happily for many days, it's really refreshing!"

"I hope it's the last time."

Behind the desk, Lin Yun was holding his forehead with some headaches: "The Different Policy Bureau is not a restaurant, nor is it a relief center. Please leave immediately after eating."

"Hmmmmm! I don't want to either!"

Her throat moved, and she swallowed the food in her mouth, Yuan tapped the lunch box in her hand with her chopsticks: "It's true that I have experienced the vicissitudes of life these days, people are cold and warm, and I live in poverty, and I can't even afford a full meal."

"Impoverished..."

Eyelids twitched twice, although Lin Yun felt strange, but still maintained a deadpan expression: "What happened?"

"Nothing happened. Simply put, a penny beats a hero."

Yuan clamped the chopsticks between her thumbs and spread her hands: "I don't have any money with me."

"I know you don't have any money with you, otherwise you wouldn't have been arrested for eating overlord's meal."

Lin Yun nodded: "I just don't understand why you are reduced to such a field."

The kite in front of him, just looking at its image, is even more unbearable than it was a few days ago.If the Taoist robe on his body was only worn out before, it can be said to be dirty now, it looks like it has been rolled in a garbage dump.

The scene of the other party declaring loudly before, "Let's have fun in the human city", and then leaving gracefully is still vivid in my memory, but I didn't expect to get into the current appearance in a blink of an eye, which really makes people feel a little ashamed.

"It's a long story... I originally wanted to find a place to work, but after working for a few days, the foreman who took me was completely lost. I don't have a mobile phone, and I don't know where he is. .”

Putting the chopsticks on the lunch box, Yuan sighed: "I can't work, so I thought about going to other places to do part-time jobs, but they all said what's 'education'. I didn't even finish elementary school before I went to practice martial arts. Where can I get such a thing?"

"so?"

"So, I have no money and no food on me. I have no place to live and nothing to eat."

Yuan licked her lips, as if she was still a little unsatisfied with the box lunch she had just eaten: "I can't find a place to sleep, I originally planned to go to the park to find a wild place to lie down, but there are people patrolling there at night to prevent homeless people from sleeping." Sleeping rough, I got kicked out after sleeping all night.”

"Sleeping is not allowed in the park, so I can only look for abandoned houses, but several places I found are too dirty to settle. It is rare that there are a few clean houses that have been occupied by other beggars. They thought I was providing What illegal service."

Waving her hands as if to drive away bad luck, Yuan continued: "I have no choice but to sleep in the bridge hole in the end. It's a bit cold at night, but we martial arts practitioners are not afraid of getting sick because of the cold."

"Then you should solve the problem of eating!"

Simi on the side suddenly interrupted and shouted, seemingly full of resentment: "It's fine if I can't handle the food myself, and let me grab the trash can with stray cats! How many times do I have to say, I'm a fairy, not a cat!"

"They all look so alike. A cat can scratch a trash can with its paws. Why can't you?"

Yuan was a little strange and said: "Don't talk about you, even when I can't stand bigu, I can go to the trash can..."

"Okay, okay, I already know your situation."

Feeling that letting them continue talking would turn into a quarrel, Lin Yun decisively reached out and stopped: "Can you go out to quarrel first if you want to quarrel? As the main criminal who destroyed the office facilities of the Different Policy Bureau before, you are still wanted by us. The policy bureau has no ability to arrest you, but can you stop treating this place as a vegetable market?"

"Hey, am I wanted now?"

Kite blinked and looked back at Semi, who was behind her: "Look, what do you say? Wanted, doesn't this feel like a bad guy?"

"I hope you do something more in line with your identity as a bad guy, instead of looking for fortune-telling and begging in the streets and alleys like a charlatan..." Semi sighed.

Yuan said convincingly: "So I am here to beg from the Bureau of Different Strategies?"

——"I must emphasize again, the Bureau of Different Strategies is not a relief center."

Seeing that this person, a goblin, was about to formulate a criminal plan in front of his face, Lin Yun interrupted again: "It's just that if it's just to solve the problem of board and lodging, it's not impossible to consider, although it's impossible for the Bureau of Different Strategies Give wanted criminals any funding. But if you really need this, I can give you a small amount of money in my own name."

"Oh, money? Really?"

Yuan was shocked when she heard the words: "It is really useful to go to the Bureau of Different Strategies to beg?"

"It is stated in advance that the money will not be too much, and it will only be used to solve the most basic board and lodging. And in exchange, you will not be able to cause trouble in Fangting City."

Lin Yun rubbed his temples with one hand: "If you can't do this, I will only report to a higher level to see if the Magic Kingdom has any comments."

This sentence is actually scary to say, because he has already fed back to Emerald about the existence of this person and goblin, and the answer he got from there is also very simple: there will be no major problems.

Although he didn't know where the other party's confidence came from, but since the gem scepter had given such a promise, he didn't want to get involved in this matter.

After all, it was no longer his turn to worry about the safety of Beast Source—that thing that had turned into an emerald.

He had packed it up and thrown it at Emerald.

Realizing that holding this thing in his hand would only attract more coveted people, and considering that his current self could not deal with the constant stream of enemies, he decisively threw it out.

The most important thing he needs to do now is to maintain the stability of Fangting City. Allowing the source of beasts to cause disasters in his own hands is not only detrimental to his own safety, but also detrimental to the growth of the new members of the team.

It's good that an enemy at this level of kite doesn't have too much malice, but once it comes with great malice, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for Fangting City.

With that in mind, there could be no better buyer than emeralds.No matter how untrustworthy the gemstone scepter is, it belongs to the magical girl after all. It is better for the source of the beast to fall into the hands of Emerald than into the hands of Claw Scar.

And as long as the owner of Beast Source becomes Emerald, the responsibility for its safety will naturally be transferred to Emerald.It is easier for a gem scepter in power to keep the source of the beast than a wounded person like him.

It is also because of this that now Lin Yun is more confident when facing Yuan - things are not in his hands, and he is not afraid of what the other party will do.

His attitude, on the contrary, made Yuan, who came to the Different Strategy Bureau with the idea of ​​"trying it out", feel surprised: "It's very simple not to cause trouble, after all, I don't like bullying the weak. But this money... you really Just give it like that? Don't ask for anything more?"

"It's a great thing for the Different Strategy Bureau if you don't make trouble."

Lin Yun narrowed his eyes: "As for other requests, I don't think you can give anything like this."

After he finished speaking, he found that the other party looked at him a little strangely.

"Hmm...he looks quite decent, and he can be considered a handsome guy. His identity is not bad, he is a bureau chief."

Yuan rubbed her chin: "If you want something special, I can't think about it."

"no."

Hearing the slightly hinted words of the other party, Lin Yun was indifferent, but drooped his eyelids, and said indifferently: "Please leave after taking the money, and don't stay in the Bureau of Different Strategies for a long time."

"Hahaha, you are so sloppy, what man can see you?"

Seeing that Yuan's hinting words and deeds hit a wall, Semie at the side immediately sneered: "You better stop thinking about it."

"Well."

Even though she has a carefree personality, being so directly denied the charm of the opposite sex made Yuan feel a little frustrated: "How dare you refuse so decisively? As a woman, am I not attractive at all?"

"Sorry, you're beautiful, but I'm married."

Lin Yun remained expressionless: "And I love my wife very much."

"Okay, okay, then pretend I didn't say it."

Putting the lunch box in her hand on the desk in front of her, Yuan gave up and said, "Just to make sure, you said you can't make trouble. I'm going to ask a magical girl to have a fight, right?"

"It doesn't count if it doesn't kill people or destroy public facilities."

Guessing the other party's plan, Lin Yun suppressed the twitching of the corner of his mouth, and narrated in a calm voice: "It's just that neither I nor the Bureau of Different Strategies want to see such a thing."

From an emotional point of view, he really wanted to dispel the other party's idea of ​​a fight, because he was very busy and really didn't have time to fight with a martial idiot every day; but from a rational point of view, blocking all the other's paths would not be good. conducive to negotiation.Therefore, he can only use the tone of a third party and use relatively soft language to express his opposition.

"Then can you give me the contact information of Cornflower?"

His opinion obviously failed to touch Yuan's nerves, and when she heard that dating was not strictly prohibited, she suddenly regained her spirits: "I haven't seen her for several days."

"The Different Policy Bureau has a two-way confidentiality rule. We will not provide the personal information of magical girls to anyone."

Lin Yun said solemnly: "And it's useless even if I provide you with the contact information. As you said before, you don't have a mobile phone."

"Yeah, I don't have a cell phone."

Yuan nodded belatedly: "But it doesn't matter, if I have money, I can use a public phone. By the way, if that's the case, why don't you send the Buddha to the West from the Different Policy Bureau, and just give me another mobile phone... ..."

"No talk."

Lin Yun ended the conversation with extremely indifferent words.

In the end, he gave Yuan a few thousand dollars, ensuring that it was enough to maintain the other party's board and lodging for a period of time, and decisively "invited" the two troublesome guests out of the Different Strategy Bureau.

After sending off the two great gods, he was able to return to his free time and start to deal with the work he had not finished today.

The director of the Different Policy Bureau not only has to deal with the internal affairs of the bureau, but also has to deal with communication with other city Different Policy Bureaus, as well as with the local municipal government.

In the past month, the full moon festival, the lakeside spring, and the attack on the Different Strategy Bureau a few days ago have caused the city government to suffer a lot financially, whether it is sacrificing the cost of comforting employees or the reconstruction cost of the Different Strategy Bureau , It all fell on their heads, which made some government officials very dissatisfied.Although they knew that Lin Yun, the airborne director of the Bureau of Different Strategies, had some background, it did not prevent them from putting forward "opinions" to Lin Yun, asking him to standardize the management of the Bureau of Different Strategies and reduce additional losses.

In this regard, Lin Yun had to make a special trip to the city government for a report to explain the increase in expenditure in recent days, and at the same time to appease him, so as to ensure that the Bureau of Different Strategies would not cut off the source of funds.

Such a huge policy bureau, with thousands of employees, needs a lot of maintenance funds.If the officials of the city government were not appeased, even if the money was cut off by [-] to [-]%, many places would become stretched, and by then there would be a lot of headaches for him.

Thinking about these issues, I completed part of the paperwork at hand, and the time gradually advanced to the evening, and it was time to get off work.

Although there is still a lot of work to be done, Lin Yun can no longer continue, because he has other schedules after get off work - going to the emerald research institute.

These days, he always goes there.

One reason is that the deal with the source of beasts has been completed, and the treatment process related to the truth has also begun. He needs to go to Emerald's for more examinations, as well as some small physical therapy work, and start to control his injuries.

Secondly, it was because he still had a patient to take care of there, and that was Hong Siyu.

The reason why Hong Siyu was able to regain the power of the magical girl was, as expected, precisely because of Emerald.According to her, the time between Hongsi and retirement is still short, not more than ten years, so there are some ways to get back her magic power source.

Of course, when asked about the specific way, she became vague, obviously not wanting to mention it, and it was not a formal way.

As for the motivation for doing so, it was because when Hong Siyu was sent to the country for treatment, Emerald first proposed a deal with Delphinium. In order to increase some bargaining chips for the deal, Emerald asked Hong Siyu in private.After obtaining its consent, such an operation was carried out.

Hongsi and retrieving the power of the magical girl are not without hidden dangers.In terms of identity alone, because she didn't join the kingdom like a normal magical girl, and she didn't qualify as a lifetime magical girl like Delphinium, so she is now an "illegal magical girl" just like Claw Scar.

And if it comes to the power itself, it is even more problematic, because before regaining the power of the magical girl, Hong Siyu did not live as an ordinary person.In the past two years in Fangting City, she has been implanted with the magic power source of the remnant beast in her body, and she has been seriously polluted. Even after Delphinium used scissors to directly separate the concept of the remnant beast, the truth of sleeping still appeared. a certain degree of variation.

Because of this, Hong Siyu, who has regained the power of a magical girl, is not in a stable physical condition.

Compared with Delphinium's symptoms of turning into a magical girl from time to time, her symptoms are much simpler-there is no turning back.

It can be said that this state is much better than Delphinium's, but that is simply because Delphinium's state is too bad; from an absolute level, her own state is not much better.

According to Emerald, after obtaining the source of the beast, she can make some targeted attempts to stabilize Hong Siyu's physical condition.Because of this, Hongsihe has been going to Emerald's research institute for follow-up treatment in recent days.

It has to be said that the weight of this bargaining chip did shake Delphinium's decision to a certain extent.

For this reason, after getting off work in the past few days, no matter how busy the work is, he still needs to find a way to find a way to go to Emerald's research institute to learn about the latest progress of the treatment.
