Betty Samantha left the East City Inspectorate and held out her hand to hail a rickshaw waiting across the street.
A young man with a towel hanging around his neck took the lead and arrived in front of Betty first, putting the rickshaw down with a smile on his face:
"Miss, where are you going?"
"Fudi Garden Community." Betty reported the destination casually, but she looked at the young coachman who smiled at her:
"Do you know me?"
"It's not even close to knowing each other, Miss Inspector!" The young man laughed loudly:
"I live nearby. I work here every day when the Supervision Office is off work. I have seen you many times!"
"After all, there are not many beautiful ladies in the Supervision Office, so you can easily attract our attention." When the young man said this, he turned his head and glanced at the coachmen who were just waiting with him on the other side of the road. But he saw his companions giving him the middle finger.
So that's it... Betty smiled. Most of these coachmen were young people from the neighborhood. They usually gathered in the Inspectorate to work around. Naturally, they often discussed the appearance of the ladies in the Inspectorate.
And I... am similar in age to these coachmen, and with quite good looks, I have become their competitive customer.
The young rickshaw driver looked at Betty's pretty face with a smile, then turned around, happily pulled up the rickshaw and ran very fast.
After grabbing his favorite female customer, the young man kept talking while driving:
"Madam, you must have just started working in the Inspectorate, right?"
"Yeah." Betty responded absently.
"That's what I said!" The young man has been pulling the cart for a long time. He is not out of breath from running, but can chat with the guests easily:
"People like you who have a job like you can usually buy a car for transportation after working for two years. If you take a rickshaw every time, it means you have not been working for a long time... Haha, that's right. You are so young, so of course you have just started working. .”
"We wait across the street every day, rushing to take you home."
"A lady as beautiful as you and with an official job is like a goddess to the rest of us."
At this point, even the young man himself felt that he had gone too far, and he immediately covered up his embarrassment with a hearty laugh:
"Hahaha..."
Betty Samantha, who was sitting in the car, was originally upset, but she became interested when she heard the driver's monologue, which was like checking her household registration. She smiled and said:
"What kind of goddess..."
"Haha, you are so humble." The young man looked back slightly at the beautiful guest as he ran:
"To us, you are a goddess."
"Goddess..." The young man suddenly let out a long sigh:
"That's what we people can't hope for..."
Betty Samantha smiled bitterly when she heard this. She is a goddess in the eyes of you people, but she is still troubled by her boyfriend's inability to provide a gift of thirty gold dollars.
Looking out the window at the street speeding behind her, she asked with a steady gaze:
"Are you married?"
"Not yet!" The young man turned his head and shouted when he heard the sound: "But soon, my fiancée is a neighbor's girl. We grew up together."
"She is now a female worker in a knitting factory. Like me... well, she is working hard to save money."
"When we save enough for the down payment, we can buy a small second-hand house in the suburbs of the city. Once we have the house, we can get married and have children."
"As you know, private houses in the suburbs are not expensive. The total price is only eighty-nine gold dollars."
When the young man said this, his face was filled with happiness that could not be concealed. He looked back at Betty again and said with a smile:
"We can't compare with you. You have an official job and a high and stable income. You will definitely not live in the suburbs."
"Houses in Dongcheng City are relatively expensive. We can't imagine spending hundreds of gold dollars..."
It's more expensive... Even for Betty Samantha, who works at the Inspectorate, a nice townhouse in the city is a goal that will take several years to achieve.
What's more, there are also the betrothal gifts required for marriage, buying a car, and various expenses that are not necessary for life as a middle class, but are necessary for dignity... Betty let out a long sigh in her heart.
However, seeing the coachman running vigorously in front of him, but his whole body looked full of energy and relaxed, Betty suddenly felt that it was because of her middle-class status that all her standards had been passively raised a lot. , life and the future seem even heavier.
This young man who pulls a rickshaw seems to be living a much more comfortable life than himself...
When she got home and saw that her parents were not at home, Betty threw herself directly on the bed and lay quietly with her eyes closed for a long time before she calmed down from the tension at work during the day.
This morning, she was assigned by the captain to sort out a file, and she had undoubtedly met the owner of this file.
The Punisher of the former Hot Spring City Supervision Office was unpredictable. The captain said that this guy who was about the same age as himself was likely to be promoted in the near future and be transferred to a certain city to serve as the Punisher Captain.
It is precisely because of all the "young and promising people" that the captain... is already in a relationship with this unpredictable guy - last time at the Roland Club, the captain took all the punishers to help find a place for this unpredictable guy. , it can be said that it gives enough face to the unpredictable.
He's about the same age as me, so he can become the captain of the Punisher... At that time, Betty looked at the loyal and young face, and thought in her heart.
So, today, when the captain asked her to organize the files transmitted by the telegraph from Hot Spring City, she fell into a tangle when she discovered the unexpected files.
This guy's file should be what is needed there... They have said that they have contacted me on the phone many times, and if they are willing to do things for them, they will be compensated accordingly.
Today's Betty Samantha...is short of money.
After some inner struggle, Betty gritted her teeth, and finally her rationality was suppressed, and she secretly contacted there by phone.
After asking, the other party was silent for a minute, and finally asked unexpectedly:
"Are you sure it's the Hot Springs Punisher's unpredictable file?"
Betty lowered her voice to confirm three times, and then said in a firm tone on the phone:
"If it's unpredictable, of course, please be sure to leave a copy for me, the sooner the better!"
Sure enough, what I guessed was pretty much the same. The other party was interested in the unpredictable young punisher. Just when Betty was about to ask about the delivery location, the other party quickly gave out the bargaining chip:
"When you get it, I'll give you ten gold dollars!"
Betty's eyes suddenly widened, and at that time, she almost screamed.
She had thought that the unpredictable files might be valuable, but she didn't expect that the other party would be able to offer such a high price.
Ten gold dollars is the salary that I can save by tightening my belt in a year.
However, this also made Betty feel a lot more vigilant at the same time - the other party seemed to be in urgent need of unpredictable files. If she did this, would she get burned?
But with an arrow on the line, holding the microphone in her hand, Betty had no other choice. In the end, she did as she was told on the phone.
With a sense of luck and the anxiety of using the convenience of official work to make money for the first time, Betty seemed to have lost her soul throughout the whole day.
What's more, the captain quickly told everyone to be on standby, saying that there might be a major task today.
This made Betty Samantha even more nervous until...two hours after getting off work, she finally received a communication from the captain to lift the combat readiness.
After recalling the whole day, Betty, who was lying on the bed, gradually swept away the haze in her heart...
It seems that it's okay.
Today, I earned 10 gold yuan!
Betty Samantha gradually became happier.
She went to the kitchen, simply filled her stomach with bread, returned to her bedroom again, took a comfortable hot bath, and then threw herself back on the bed.
Turning on the desk lamp, she took out the newly bought "Fights Break the Sphere" on the bedside and read it with relish in the light.
This book is so cool!
It really lives up to its reputation! It’s a plot that only an Iron God can come up with!
It would be great if my boyfriend was as good as Xiao Yan! If her boyfriend had half the temperament of Xiao Yan, would he still worry about a mere thirty gold yuan gift?
Of course, this refers to ability, rather than imitating Xiao Yan and marrying two wives at the same time...
It is said that the author of this book is a Silver Hand from the Public Security Department, who is also a woman... Well, Sister Yan's disciple, Sister Yan once said this very proudly.
Thirty gold dollars... Hehe, I have already earned one-third today. Let's wait for a while. If he still can't come up with the money, I will give him these ten gold dollars... Hey, for It took a lot of effort to marry myself to him...
Forget it, don’t think about it anymore, "Fights Break the Sphere" is so good!
Through the plot of "Fight Breaking the Sphere", she finally completely forgot about the tension she felt from today...until she fell asleep holding this beautiful book.
............
Until morning approached, through the cracks in the curtains, one could see the darkness outside.
The darkest time before dawn...
A flurry of symbols suddenly appeared, and a door engraved with simple patterns appeared out of thin air in the bedroom.
Two figures wearing windbreakers and civilized hats came out of the vortex of spinning symbols inside the door.
The desk lamp was not turned off, and there was dim light in the room.
Betty Samantha, who was deeply asleep, felt the fluctuation of the source of symbols. She woke up from her sleep feeling slightly dazed, but suddenly felt a cold feeling on her forehead.
It was the cold touch of the pistol.
Although Betty Samantha was a housekeeper, she was also a real punisher. She had already realized that someone had sneaked into the bedroom, and she suddenly woke up with a jolt.
She raised her head blankly, facing the dim light of the desk lamp that was not turned off, and saw clearly the face of the person holding the gun against her.
"Team...captain..."
It was none other than his immediate leader, the Punisher Captain of the Dongcheng City Supervision Bureau, Lu Yang.
Betty Samantha looked at the seriousness on the captain's face, and immediately guessed the reason for this situation——
It's over, that ten gold yuan thing!
The captain already knows!
"Don't try to resist, Betty, you know it doesn't make any sense!"
Lu Yang's voice was solemn and he said in a semi-threatening tone:
"You should know that you are no match for me."
The captain's words are not wrong. Betty Samantha is just a white-level punisher who has just awakened less than a year ago. Her ability is transformation and she can turn into a crane.
However, transformation requires a few seconds of reaction time, which is enough time for the captain to leave a hole in his forehead.
Of course, even if she could transform, she wouldn't be able to fight in this small bedroom. After all, her abilities were not suitable for fighting, but more suitable for reconnaissance.
What's more, there was another person who came with the captain. After that person walked out of the door, he also stood beside the bed.
Facing the light, Betty Samantha rolled her eyes, trying hard to see the other person's face clearly.
It turned out to be...unpredictable!
That's right, the man with the honest and honest smile is the owner of the file this morning!
It was confirmed that something went wrong with the betrayal in the morning, and the captain had noticed it.
"Captain...I was wrong..."
Betty Samantha was looking at Su Xuan's two white arms, maintaining the posture of lying on the bed, and stretched out her hands to express surrender.
Lu Yang's expression was not relaxed at all. He still pressed the pistol against Betty's forehead and turned his head to look at Mo Zhi solemnly.
Unpredictable nodded, followed the light and looked at the neckline of Betty Samantha's pajamas that was stretched out by raising her hands, pursed her lips and said:
"Don't be nervous, I'll ask, you can answer or not."
After saying that, the unpredictable Talisman Spirit Snake at the fingertips wormed its way into Betty's chest along her collar.
"Did you leak my files?" Mo Zhi asked.
Betty Samantha was about to answer, but unexpectedly she said it to herself:
"That's you."
After saying that, Mo Zhi turned around and gestured to Lu Yang, indicating that the mind reading was successful and that the price was paid in this way of self-questioning and answering.
Betty also understood in an instant... She had just read the unpredictable file today, and knew that the contract ability of unpredictable was mind reading.
Mobi asked the second question, frowning:
"Who did you give my file to?"
Betty, who was briefly stunned, still didn't have time to speak this time, because according to her habit, she had to think about whether she should try to hide it from the captain and Mo Zhang at this time... Of course, she soon realized that this was indeed what the captain said. It makes no sense. In front of the mind reader, no thoughts can be hidden from others.
"Dongcheng Trading Company?" Mo Zhi paid the price in a rhetorical tone.
When Lu Yang heard the name, he turned his head to look at Mo Zhi in surprise:
"This is the largest trading company in Dongcheng City. The boss is Geng Gaofeng, a very famous rich man in Dongcheng City."
Mo Zhi nodded, thought for two seconds, and asked:
"Do you know the background of Dongcheng Trading Company? Is it a secret organization or something else?"
...Muzhi shook his head and glanced at Lu Yang:
"she does not know."
"She works for Dongcheng Trading Company just for money. She doesn't even know the contact person there, she just makes phone calls."
"In this case, she is not betraying Pandora and serving a secret organization. She is probably only reselling official information for personal gain... Well, this is also a felony."
Lu Yang nodded silently, still feeling a little embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, he is now the Punisher Captain and Director of the Inspection Bureau of Bancarol City. He is at the same level as himself. Unexpectedly, he was not strict under his control and actually betrayed the official personnel file in front of his colleague. How much is this? Somewhat ashamed.
"The background of Dongcheng Trading Company is unclear... It's hard to pinpoint the punisher they bribed the Supervisory Office. I don't know if it's a secret organization snooping on intelligence, or it's just espionage to serve the business." Lu Yang's embarrassment was unpredictable. Seeing it in his eyes, he didn't have the right to question him face to face... After all, Bancarol City had more betrayed subordinates.
He analyzed it by himself and looked at Betty with a frown:
"For such a small amount of money, you will betray the secrets of the Supervisory Office... Girl, are you so short of money?"
After a few seconds, Mu Zhi paid the price in a dazed manner:
"I'm just short of money..."
After saying that, he looked at Lu Yang again and said numbly: "What she is thinking is... you scraped the ground too hard and habitually squeezed the punishers under you, resulting in their wages being often withheld. You've enriched your own pockets...so the team members' income is not high."
"So there's a shortage of money."
Lu Yang's face suddenly turned green.
Who would have thought that society would suddenly die at this time...
