After drawing Zhongye SSR

The clock in Fitzgerald's office struck six.

The shadow of the setting sun can no longer be seen outside the huge glass window, only a little bit of the last afterglow shines on the face of the girl with twin ponytails through the glass that has been wiped so that it can reflect people's shadows, and coats her long eyelashes. Phnom Penh.

She didn't seem to realize what shocking words she just said, and calmly waved to Louisa who was standing behind Fitzgerald: "Miss Louisa, is there any more coffee?"

Luisa hurriedly hugged the tray and said, "I'm going to soak right now."

She turned and went into the pantry.

The easy smile on Fitzgerald's face disappeared.He looked at Maki and asked, "Why?"

"hard to explain."

Maki turned the empty coffee cup, watching the last few drops of brown liquid swaying on the white porcelain.

Maki: "The only thing I know about books is 'it's a blank book of literature, and everything written on it will become reality'. I believe you know that, Mr. Fitzgerald."

In fact, she also concealed a little bit - Ji Zhen's photo.

Although I don't know why, but when the photo is found, the progress bar of the main task five has increased.

Maki guessed that it probably has something to do with what she heard before "she is the clue to find the book".But Maki doesn't know what the relationship between himself and the book is.

Fitzgerald nodded.

"I don't know more," he said.

Maki said: "That's the problem-almost everyone's knowledge of books ends there."

Fitzgerald: "Because we don't need to know more."

Most people seek books only for their ability to fulfill their wishes.If there's something else that can do the same thing, whether it's Aladdin's lamp or whatever, they'll turn to that.

Unlike Maki, she doesn't want wishes to come true.

"I need."

Maki looked for the wording: "What I want to find is the truth of the book."

"Not the book itself?"

Shinji shook his head, then hesitated and said, "Maybe."

She wasn't sure if the truth of the book had to require her to find it.

Fitzgerald was silent.He stretched out a hand, stroked his neatly combed back, and then raised half of his eyebrows: "Why should I trust you, little girl?"

"As I said, I am the bargaining chip."

Maki took the coffee from Louisa and thanked him politely.Louisa looked flustered as she covered herself with a nineteenth-century shawl as she walked back behind Fitzgerald.

Fitzgerald said, "You mean, you're important to that devil?"

He looked contemptuous.

Maki's hand paused.

She hesitated a little, Hitomi Mishima's previous reminder was still firmly in her mind.

"Maki, please remember, absolutely, absolutely must not reveal your personality to others."

However, although this is only her guess, I am afraid that her being chosen to come to this world, including her final mission, is related to the "book".

Maki: "Sisi, is my guess right?"

System: [Sisi doesn't know. 】

Maki didn't expect this system to spit out any ivory.She weighed the pros and cons for a while, and finally made up her mind to speak: "...I hope you are the only one who will hear about the next thing."

Fitzgerald smiled and gestured to Louisa.Luisa made a silent salute and went out.

"My personality." Maki said slowly, while deliberating, "I just awakened not long ago, and I still can't figure out all the ways to use it."

Maki summoned an R card and shot it at the wall beside him: "This is the most basic."

Fitzgerald smiled unchanged and nodded for her to continue.

"And then there's the part I want you to keep secret."

Maki stood up, pulled the card off the wall, and turned it over so that it lay face up in front of him.

The Kindergarten font on the card is a little blurry, but it can still be seen that it says [Francis Fitzgerald].

This card is more than just a weapon.

This was Fitzgerald's first instinct.

Sure enough, what Shinji said next made his eyes widen slightly: "I can remotely strengthen or damage the character corresponding to the name on the card - although the consumption is huge, I can manipulate your life if I want, sir .”

Fitzgerald sat up straight.

He looked at Maki with wary eyes for the first time today: "Are you threatening me?"

"No," Maki shrugged, "I'm just making sure that my personality won't be leaked out—of course, because of the huge consumption, I generally don't use the last ability."

...To be precise, she can't use it yet.

But Fitzgerald didn't know it, and it was enough to bluff people.

Fitzgerald thought for a moment.Finally had to admit: "You are indeed an important bargaining chip."

He has never seen such a powerful personality that does not conform to common sense. Although Maki said that the consumption is huge, judging by her appearance, it is not unbearable.

Besides, he was indeed bluffed by Maki. After all, even he couldn't guarantee that he could kill her before Maki killed her.

So it was forced to keep it a secret.

"But if I'm an unreasonable lunatic, maybe your personality will be revealed," Fitzgerald said. "Why do you have to sacrifice so much?"

Maki finished his last sip of coffee.

"I said, if I don't get the truth of the book, I will die."

She wasn't kidding, even though it was just her guess, but Maki wasn't the type to let the risk go.

She didn't believe that the system would kindly let her take a breather, so she could only think that if the main task five was not completed within a certain period of time, she would be obliterated by some book-related existence.

"Are you afraid of death?"

Maki said, "There is no one who is not afraid of death, sir."

"I understand."

When it was all gray outside, Fitzgerald said, "I'll work with you."

*****

[October 6, sunny.

Ms. Dazai still did not come to the store today.

The decoration of the store seems to be coming to an end, but I still haven't figured out where Ms. Dazai is planning to buy from - she doesn't seem as cautious as Mr. Dazai.She won't consider buying until she's ready to open a store, right? 】

(Reply: Don't worry about the purchase, keep watching Maki Dazai.)

[June 6, cloudy.

Miss Dazai stopped by briefly after school.

She told me that the source of the goods had already been decided-but when I asked her where the goods came from, Ms. Dazai just said it was "confidential".I don't understand, how can anyone hide commercial secrets from their employees? 】

(Reply: Find a way to find out that secret.)

[October 6, sunny.

Chief, I'm very sorry, Miss Dazai still didn't tell me that secret.

By the way, Ms. Dazai seems to see that my daily life is too boring, so she recommended something called GALGAME to me - it is said that it is a "Loricon Special Edition", boss, I think I should donate it just to see the name. you. 】

(Reply: Pay attention to the task. By the way, I don’t want to ask—is it the new one released by K○Y recently?)

[June 6, rain.

Miss Dazai still didn't come.The decoration has been completely done, but she seems to be very busy lately.

PSGALGAME is very interesting, but what is K○Y Club? 】

(Reply: Will the loli in it play baseball?)

[June 6, overcast.

No, sir.

Miss Dazai looked a little worried.Was it something that happened at school? ...]

As soon as Akutagawa Yin's mission report was written, Maki walked in with a blue bag.

Akutagawa Gin quickly hid the phone, smiled at Maki and said, "Miss Dazai."

It rained a lot today.

Maki shook off the rainwater from the shoes, then handed the bag to her: "The manga I mentioned to you before."

Zhenji always feels that Xinyuanyin is good everywhere, works quickly, and has a gentle personality, but she doesn't know how to entertain at all. Before Zhenji asked her what she would do in her free time, she actually said that besides sleeping, she would exercise.

...doesn't look like a normal young woman at all.

So Maki made up his mind to find some hobbies for Xin Yuanyin.

It's just that after thinking about it, she realized that she didn't really have any hobbies—after she came to this world, she spent most of her time making money, and when she was free, at most, she bought two games to play.

So what I recommend are things that heavy nerds like.Fortunately, Niihara Yin doesn't seem to be very repulsive - Mishima Hitomi is not interested in this kind of thing at all, and Maki dare not reveal that he is actually a dead house in front of his classmates.

So she was quite happy to have someone to play with her.

Akutagawa Yin took the manga and heard Maki talking to her: "The store will be officially opened in a while, and it must be much busier than now. Is there any problem with your school?"

Akutagawa Silver nodded.

Zhen Ji breathed a sigh of relief: "Then temporarily set the ribbon-cutting on Sunday—the first time it will be more lively."

She found a stool to sit down, found a piece of paper, and said while writing down: "After the store opens, there will be a special person to transport the goods. Remember to wash and pack the vegetables and put them in different categories—expensive fruits can be cut and sold. , don’t cut too much, for fear that it won’t be sold.”

"I might have something to do in a while," Maki said, "but don't worry, I'll definitely be back before the ribbon cutting."

Although there is no feedback from the Eye of God now - which makes Maki a little worried - but she thinks that there should be no movement all the time.

Akutagawa Gin held the an○mate bag and looked at Maki silently.

Inexplicably, she felt that the girl with two ponytails was like an old general standing on the stage, with flags planted on her back—why did she have to explain it in such detail in advance, just like explaining the funeral?

There is also the last sentence, what kind of statement is it that "after finishing this mission, I will return to my hometown to get married" - one of her subordinates died in the mission because of saying this!

Akutagawa Silver comforted himself, it must be her illusion.

Suddenly, someone's cell phone rang.

Maki raised her hand: "It's my mail."

She opened the email, and when she saw the name written in the sender column, her movements suddenly accelerated.

The message in the email is very concise.Coupled with a back view below, the information is clear at a glance.

[The devil has been found, hurry up. 】

The author has something to say:

Got home later than expected...but as long as I'm awake it's still yesterday (with confidence!)

The source of the old general’s sentence on the stage is from the Internet, but I don’t remember the exact source x
