Fist of Imagination

The quarrel at the door of the bookstore lasted for nearly 10 minutes.

After it calmed down, Liang De heard a small cry from the cashier.

The little girl choked and called her father and told her that she would not go home tonight.

When the middle-aged man opposite asked him in a panic, she wiped away her tears and explained everything, telling her father where she was and who was there, so that he didn't have to worry, and then hung up the phone.

That person keeps calling.

She turned off her phone and lay motionless on the checkout counter.

Liang De received Zhao Yiyue's call almost at the same time that Zhao Yuhan hung up.

He used his natural power to open a soundproof shield and comforted the technical director on the phone who wanted to put aside important projects and skip work. He also used the "Frozen Mind" account on the Tongxu APP to ask Qin Xiao for bookstore monitoring. With the permission of the system, Zhao Yuhan's real-time updates were shared online with Zhao Yiyue, so that he could know his daughter's condition at any time.

"Fourth brother, don't worry. There is a staff lounge with beds and private bathrooms. There are toiletries. There is a fixed post set up by the Evil Disaster Bureau at the door. There is food, drink and books to read in the store. I'll give you a visit before you come after get off work. Yes, it's okay. Don't worry too much.

It's okay, it's okay, I was just reading here... OK, I'll give you some advice, Xiaohan, I'm done. "

Liang De dispersed the amber inner energy barrier, squatted down and suddenly pulled out the lazy sofa where Li Zhixian was lying.

Li Zhixian's knees were slightly bent, and his waist and abdomen were straightened. The back of his suddenly dropped head and back were only two or three centimeters from the ground, but he still managed to stabilize his body with the help of his terrifying core strength.

“You asked someone to tell her what the fuck?

If you think she's not being childish, you have to intervene. Li Zhixian, your father has a strong taste. "

Li Zhixian kept his leaning posture unchanged, folded his arms with both hands, and said solemnly:

"Commissioner Liang, as the special advisor of the Magical Girl Unit of the Xiangbei City Evil Disaster Bureau, I have the obligation to select talents for the Xiangbei Bureau.

I just checked the relevant files of citizen Zhao Yuhan and found that she independently signed up for two magical girl selections. Although she failed due to inspiration level and cultural performance respectively, her data in other aspects are very good, and now her inspiration has also reached the standard. .

In addition, she has a high level of consciousness and has a strong desire to become a magical girl, which is very admirable. Therefore, I suggest that she be invited to participate in the magical girl trial training organized by the Xiangbei Bureau next month, and ask colleagues to communicate with her legal guardian. Inform relevant matters.

Is there anything I did wrong? "

"Hey..."

Liang De was about to speak, but he was hesitant to speak. After sorting out his words for a long time, he finally couldn't say the longmen curse to Li Zhixian.

In this weird laning battle, whoever explodes first loses.

I have to admit that you are stronger now, Li Zhixian, just wait, sooner or later I will think of how to refute you.

After Liang De swallowed the foul language, he calmed down and thought about it, and found that without discussing Li Zhixian's motives, what she did was actually...

Sooner or later, Zhao Yuhan will face resistance from her family.

She is now in her second year of high school, so she is at least sixteen or seventeen years old, and the selection for the Magical Girl Troop of the Evil Disaster Bureau is only open to qualified candidates under the age of eighteen.

Just like a little girl who wants to travel on May Day, if she really wants to be a magical girl, she can't hide it from her parents for the rest of her life, and her parents will never let her decide such an important thing on her own.

According to Liang De's understanding of the Evil Disaster Bureau system, magical girls are definitely not a decent profession worth recommending to minors.

Although official propaganda portrays them as heroes and angels, gilding them with dazzling golden light, and praising their bravery and selflessness, how many parents want their children to be selfless heroes?

Liang De threw the beanbag back to Li Zhixian, leaned against the bookshelf and flipped through the books absentmindedly.

Several hours later, he heard the sound of water being discharged from the faucet from the direction of the employee washroom.

Zhao Yuhan washed her face and stood behind the cashier with red eyes, her back straight and her eyes looking at the dot in the air not knowing what she was thinking.

Liang De took the finished teacup and walked to the cashier:

"Another cup of Earl Grey, with more sugar."

"Um."

He followed Zhao Yuhan and walked to the drink bar of the bookstore. He watched the little girl holding the ingredient list and searching for black tea, bergamot and other ingredients on the pallet with some unfamiliarity.

Three dumpling-like northern long-tailed tits flew out of the screen. They carried the ingredients for Earl Gray black tea in their small beaks and put them on the bar. Then they stopped on Zhao Yuhan's shoulders and gently rubbed her lips with their feathers. Face.

"Xiaohan, your dad called me. He drove to pick you up after work in the evening. In fact, he has been very busy with work these days and was supposed to work overtime... My car is parked in the basement of the bookstore. You've never been in a flying sports car, or else..."

"I won't go back, thank you Uncle Liang."

Liang De was silent for a while. He had never been a father and he didn't have any daddy qualities. He didn't think that Zhao Yuhan had to listen to her mother. Zhao Siyue asked him to help persuade her, but he didn't have anything to say.

"Your Earl Gray tea is ready."

Liang De took the tea cup and said:

"That's okay. Your mother can't make sense for a while. It's a good idea to separate and calm down for a while. How long do you plan to stay?"

"I will stay here until I pass the Magical Girl Enlistment Selection. After passing the selection, the Evil Disaster Bureau will arrange room and board for me, and I will also have a special school to study in."

Liang De took out his mobile phone and said:

"That's quite a long time. You may have saved less money. What's your account number?

I'll lend you some money. You can pay me back when you become a magic girl and get paid."

Zhao Yuhan pursed her lips and said:

"Thank you, Uncle Liang. I can't take your money."

"What do you mean by want or not? I'm not giving you money for free. You have to pay it back in the future. You have to treat me to a meal when the time comes. Don't worry, I'm a stingy person. You can't take advantage of me."

Zhao Yuhan shook her head stubbornly and said:

"Uncle, I understand.

Borrowing money from you is actually borrowing money from my dad. I don't want to rely on them anymore. They don't understand me. My mom won't talk to me properly. She can only give orders and lose her temper. My dad thinks I'm being petty and just wants to coax me.

There's a place to live and a salary in the bookstore. As long as I sell a few more books and get a bonus, I can support myself."

Liang De nodded and asked a few more questions. After knowing that the little girl still had cupcakes to eat, he walked out of the bookstore with black tea.

It was almost eight o'clock, and it was dark. From morning till night, no one came to buy books in the branch of Yingxuetang in Xiangbei.

Liang De looked back at the billboard on the roof of Yingxuetang Bookstore, which was several times taller than the building. In the eyes of people with inspiration, the light of the giant billboard almost covered the lights of the entire city.

Why is no one coming...

In order to expand its influence in various worlds, Yingxuetang has many books and cultural products for extraordinary people in the world, in addition to products that can only be purchased with crystal clusters, which can be purchased with the currency of the world or bartered.

Liang De stared at the information on the billboard for a long time and felt that the products displayed on it were quite attractive to extraordinary people in the world, and the price was not too expensive. No one came all day, so there must be something wrong.

He stood at the door of the bookstore and waited for a while. When the two magic girls in the sky were changing shifts at eight o'clock, he sent a voice message to the wind to invite the magic girl who was about to leave after get off work down.

"Commissioner Liang, are you looking for me?"

This is a college-age girl, just over 1.7 meters tall, generous and open-minded. On the handle of her steel broom hangs a keychain of a top idol, with a bell, which sounds nice in the wind.

Liang De pointed to the bookstore billboard behind him and said:

"I think the things on it are all good, and the store is also registered with the Evil Disaster Bureau. Why is there no one buying? Do you know what's going on?"

"Commissioner Liang, don't you know?"

"I don't know, tell me about it, pick something from it, and I'll give you one."

"Then I'll tell you in secret, it's not a secret... it's because... Instructor Li is in it."

"Because of her?"

"Commissioner Liang, you were transferred from the General Administration, so you may not be very clear about Instructor Li's reputation in Xiangbei... The cases she participated in In the house, those who could have been sentenced to death with a reprieve and commuted their sentences, none of them survived, and those who were sentenced to more than 20 years, none of them were completely punished. It seems that all the seniors in the bureau have been beaten by her.

She is reading a book here, and few people from Xiangbei dare to come here. "

"What about the people in the neighboring city? This lantern sign can also be seen in the neighboring city, right? What about the people in Lingnan?"

"Instructor Li's reputation is also useful outside... Last time, a sister and I traveled thousands of kilometers across provinces to handle a case. When the suspect heard that she was from the class led by Instructor Li, he surrendered directly."

Liang De turned his head and looked in the direction of Li Zhixian in the bookstore.

From Xiangbei to Lingnan, everyone knows it.

Your reputation is really amazing.

Magic girl, awe-inspiring.

Li Zhixian, you are so powerful.

This bookstore will not be able to sell a single book at this rate. I have to think of something...

Happy Lantern Festival everyone! See you tomorrow!
