"Locke, look."
Hannah handed the flyer to Locke, "The Sixth Magistrate Court is recruiting chefs. No chef certificate is required. As long as you can cook delicious food, you can be hired. The salary of the Magistrate Court is very high, which has surpassed that of reporters. ”
Locke took the flyer. Although the family was not short of food or winter clothes, it was still necessary to find a long-term and stable job.
If I get this job, maybe I can actually move to the East End with Hannah.
Of course, renting a manor is still out of reach.
Locke began to prepare the soup. This time the ingredients were fresher and better than last time, so he decided to only use 4 hours.
In addition, making candies was also put on Locke's agenda. After the soup stock was boiled, he spent another 2 hours making candies, and did not walk out of the kitchen until late at night.
At night, when Hannah went into the room to sleep, Locke took out a small mirror from his coat pocket.
This mirror was bought at a department store in the Trey Bridge area, of course for the purpose of practicing [Mirror Trick].
With Lloyd's matter resolved, Locke can finally practice his new skills with peace of mind.
[Mirror Trick] is one of the rare life-saving abilities he has now, and he must practice it frequently.
As long as you advance to become the [Mirror Master], you will have a mirror space where you can carry important items with you.
After using [Acute Hearing] to amplify his hearing and confirming that Hannah was asleep and would not suddenly walk out of the room, Locke's body entered the mirror.
The last time he entered the mirror to escape for his life, and he had to always pay attention to the battle between Irene and Shelia outside the mirror, he ignored his feelings after entering the mirror.
This time, Locke decided to carefully experience this novel experience. The size of the mirror's space was consistent with the range it reflected.
For example, Locke faces the mirror toward the ceiling. When Locke enters the mirror, he has an upside-down feeling.
The ceiling became the floor, and the area was only the part illuminated by the mirror, about 10 square meters.
And around the border is a bottomless black mist.
These black mist seemed to have some kind of magical power, attracting Locke to get closer, and Locke heard the call from the black mist.
This gave him the idea of exploring the black mist.
Erin knocked on the mirror in time, and her voice seemed to come from the dome, echoing in the mirror space where Locke was.
"The mirror world is connected to the spiritual world. Many monsters in the spiritual world are hidden in the darkness. They are very good at disguise and temptation. You'd better not come into contact with the black mist."
Locke swallowed and retracted his left foot that almost entered the black mist. Faintly, it seemed that one foot was also retracted from the black mist.
Locke didn't know if it was his imagination, but beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
I felt that if I had just walked into the black mist, something extremely weird and terrifying might have happened.
He decisively left the mirror world.
[Mirror trick +1]
【Mirror Trick 2/1000】
Although his proficiency increased by 1 point, Locke's spirit became extremely tired.
This was completely different from what he imagined. He originally thought that he could jump between the mirror and the real world hundreds or thousands of times and easily increase his proficiency.
Who knew that just once, he would be so mentally drained, and he would almost be tempted by the black mist in the mirror world and act irrationally.
"Thank you, Erin."
Locke sincerely thanked Erin.
Eileen wagged her tail, still with a proud expression on her face,
"It's okay. It's better to practice this kind of black magic less. It's easy to lose control if you're not careful."
Erin reminded calmly.
She had seen Locke hiding in the mirror before, so she wasn't too surprised now.
In Erin's eyes, Locke is already a complete cultist. Cultists and black magic are a perfect match.
But out of appreciation for the servant's craftsmanship, Eileen still gave a kind reminder.
"dark magic?"
Locke looked at Erin suspiciously.
Irene stopped answering his questions. She always felt that although this servant believed in evil gods, his knowledge in the field of mysticism was quite lacking.
She jumped to the window sill with elegant steps, curled up into a ball, looked at the bright moonlight outside the window, and fell into deep thought.
Locke didn't know what Irene was thinking. He just felt that he was so sleepy and tired now, and soon he fell asleep on the sofa.
If you restrain your curiosity, perhaps entering the mirror world once every night is an excellent way to help you sleep.
The next day, the sun shines on the streets of Kosolk, awakening Locke on the sofa.
Locke used part of the broth from last night to cook three bowls of beef noodles for today's breakfast.
After successfully feeding Irene, I drew [Body Coordination] again.
The body coordination proficiency is increased by 100 again, and the proficiency reaches 280. If you are lucky and draw 8 times in a row, Locke can directly upgrade the body coordination to [Balance Messenger].
After Hannah finished breakfast, she put the dishes in the kitchen and started washing them.
Erin stood on the sofa and watched Locke change clothes.
He put on a clean shirt and vest, put on his windbreaker, and specially combed his hair to make him look energetic.
"Do you want to go to the Rose Theater to date a girl? Or do you want to go to the Rose Theater to seduce the rich lady?"
Erin asked curiously.
"I'm going to find a job."
Locke handed the flyer to Erin.
Erin frowned slightly, "The Sixth Sheriff Court, I always feel like I've heard of it somewhere."
"I have only heard of the First to Fifth Public Security Courts. The Sixth Public Security Court may be a newly established department. I have never heard of it before. It is not a newly established department, and there is a high probability that it will not recruit chefs. If so, Know that these risky parts are basically insider recruitment.”
Locke smiled and said,
"And they don't need a chef degree. This time I must conquer these recruiters. As long as I get the job, I promise to move to an apartment with a separate bathroom."
"All right."
Erin jumped from the sofa and onto the window sill, continuing to lie down lazily.
"Won't you go with me?"
Locke asked.
Erin shook her head, "It's not appropriate for me to go out today, you can go by yourself."
"Then wish me luck."
Locke stretched out his hand and wanted to stroke the black cat, but was stopped by Irene's cold eyes.
He retracted his hand that was stuck in mid-air and straightened his collar awkwardly.
"Locke, stop talking to cats."
Hannah's voice came from the kitchen.
Locke responded and walked out the door.
During this period, the black cat always stood on his shoulder, and he was still a little unaccustomed to the sudden loss of this decoration.
According to the address on the flyer, Locke spent 20 kilograms to cross the Trey Bridge, then transferred to the trackless train and arrived at the Sixth Sheriff Court at No. 34 Wells Road in the East District.
