It was already past 11 o'clock in the middle of the night when Qin Jiandan returned to the Yelong Club headquarters. He learned from Hu Chi that his master had gone to bed first.
"Master is sick. It is right to rest early. I will report on the annihilation of the Clown Group tomorrow. Senior brother, you took the risk by hiding it from Master for me. I will treat you to fried chicken tomorrow."
Hu Chi shook his head vigorously: "Young master, can you eat something else? Not to mention Linlin, I think your diet is unhealthy!"
Qin Jiandan felt that his senior brother did not understand the art of fried chicken, and compared with himself, he really lacked one of the joys of life.
"Well, then I'll go to the prosthetic shop and buy you a more advanced mechanical prosthesis! Your right arm is too old, rough and heavy, why are you stingy about not replacing it with a new one?"
Hu Chi raised his mechanical right arm, and a proud look appeared on his ugly face covered with scars:
"Young Master, you don't use a prosthetic body, and you don't know the secrets. I have used this old model of prosthetic body for many years, and I have already used it emotionally. I am not used to it if I change it to a lighter one! What happened to the old model? The nerve signal conduction is still there. Isn’t it just as fast?”
Like a child, Hu Chi controlled the three titanium alloy blades on the side of the prosthetic body to pop out and retract, and retract and pop out again. That's pretty scary considering he has the face of a serial killer.
Qin Jiandan was ashamed: "Don't scare others in the middle of the night. I'm going back to Linlin."
When Qin Jiandan walked 20 steps away, he turned around and saw Hu Chi still standing there playing. He was really convinced.
In the monitoring room on the third underground floor, Aunt He, who couldn't sleep, was helping Linlin clean. Linlin's requirements for personal hygiene and indoor hygiene have increased sharply recently, and Aunt He felt very happy.
After sweeping the floor until not a single speck of dust could be hidden, Aunt He sat down on the sofa to rest for a while. Across the small coffee table, Linlin sat on a computer chair and stared at the nine screens.
On the coffee table, there were still a lot of high-end snacks that Qin Jiandan brought back from the inner city yesterday, but Aunt He didn't move them.
"Linlin, after the young master went out with the Luo Ying group today, I picked up this thing in the courtyard..."
Linlin looked back and found that Aunt He was holding a long chain that looked like it was used for walking a dog. The metal collar at the end had been damaged.
"What is this?" Linlin asked strangely, "Isn't there a sign at the headquarters saying "Dogs and English are not allowed"? "
Aunt He snorted disdainfully:
"I heard from the patrolling guard that he saw from a distance the leader of the Luoying Group, the little girl named Xiaoxia, being led by the young master in the courtyard!"
A troubled look appeared on the face of the bun-headed Kung Fu girl.
Aunt He added: "Young master seems to be having a lot of fun recently, and it's probably because Xiao Xia has led him to bad things. It's not that I'm biased, anyway, I think the women in the Luo Ying group are not serious!"
At this time, Qin Jiandan came down from upstairs. Firstly, he wanted to report to his sister that he was safe, and secondly, he wanted to drink a glass of cold beer before going to bed.
The result of the current discussion with Linlin is that you can drink one glass of beer from the refrigerator every day, and today's limit has not been used up.
"Linlin, I'm back! The Night Dragon Club won a big victory today! Hahaha, it's worth having a drink to celebrate!"
Qin Jiandan's shirt was dissolved by the corrosive liquid, his shirtless body was covered with rainwater, and the floor was dirty as soon as he came in. Aunt He looked like a sunken dog on the sofa.
Linlin was used to seeing her brother's clothes torn after fighting. She stood up from the computer chair, took a few steps to the refrigerator, put her hands on her hips and puffed out her chest.
"Brother, tell the truth! While I was fighting the drone outside the headquarters today, what were you doing with Xiaoxia in the courtyard? My sister got her face covered with engine oil, but my brother was having fun! You still have the nerve to drink beer like this !"
His sister lost her temper. Only then did Qin Jiandan notice Aunt He on the sofa, thinking that it was probably Aunt He who had done something bad.
Blocking in front of the refrigerator, Linlin pretended to be a dragon guarding the treasure, while Qin Jiandan racked his brains to break through his sister's defense.
I only walked a short distance with Xiao Xia in hand. Was it the secret from Senior Brother Hu Chi? No, maybe there are other guards who saw it... Aunt He is a master of gossip, and most of the things that happen in the headquarters cannot be hidden from her.
Lying will be exposed on the spot, and Qin Jiandan has no need to fabricate lies on a large scale:
"Hmm... Xiaoxia was playing with the Luo Ying group's toys, and she couldn't open them without the key. I just helped her crush the collar."
Aunt He took a snack from the coffee table and ate it. On the one hand, she was a little hungry, and on the other hand, she was demonstrating to Qin Jiandan:
"Hmph, this kind of thing is actually a toy. Let me just say that the women in the Luo Ying group are not serious!"
"That's right, the women in the Luo Ying group are all immoral!" Linlin repeated, "Brother, please stop associating with them in the future!"
Linlin was not simply following others' opinions. When she monitored the Luoying Group's territory, she saw that there were many red-light districts there, and many young girls were skilled in soliciting customers. With more monitoring, Linlin roughly knows the prices of various services.
Thinking of this, Linlin announced loudly:
"From now on, brother, your salary must be handed over to me! I used to subsidize brother, but now that you are the young master, you should let me help you manage the increased salary!"
Aunt He on the sofa made a subtle punching motion, seemingly praising Linlin for her excellent moves.
Linlin's daily expenses were very small. Before she became the young master, Qin Jiandan relied on her sister's sponsorship to continue eating beer and fried chicken at the end of each month.
People from outside the city were not allowed to apply for bank cards. The cash that Qin Jiandan couldn't carry with him was thrown everywhere, and Linlin was responsible for collecting and keeping it. The money of the two of them was not separated from each other.
Linlin's current request for "escrow wages" is to institutionalize this fact, and the symbolic significance is greater than the actual significance.
Qin Jiandan hesitated: "In some countries on the earth, there is indeed an unhealthy trend of handing over wages to the wife. But this is not the earth. You are also my sister, not my wife!"
Normally, Qin Jiandan might have coaxed his sister by touching her head, but today, with Aunt He watching, Linlin would not give in so easily.
"Salary...If I don't give it to me, who will I give it to? Give it to them!"
Linlin reached out and pointed at the surveillance screen, and the scene of a girl soliciting customers on Yingtong Street happened to appear on the screen.
The air in the room suddenly became quiet, leaving only the sound of Aunt He chewing snacks.
Qin Jiandan sighed: "Linlin, please call me husband."
Linlin's face flushed instantly: "Eh?"
Qin Jiandan turned his back on guests and said impatiently:
"You call me husband and I will hand over your salary. What's wrong, don't you want to manage your salary? Even on earth, there is no reason to let your sister manage your salary. You call me!"
"This...this..." The bun-headed girl looked down at the floor. The originally spotless floor was stained with water.
Qin Jiandan gently opened Linlin's shoulders, took out the long-awaited beer from the fresh compartment of the refrigerator, unscrewed the plastic sealing cap and drank it in one gulp.
"Oh~ It really quenches my thirst!"
After getting over his alcohol addiction, Qin Jiandan turned to look at his sister's profile. Linlin was twisting the pink hair in front of her ears with her fingers, still twisting it.
I finally figured it out! Linlin is bewitched every day and is always afraid that I will be snatched away by other women, but she still regards herself as her sister in her heart!
Guessing that his sister has "high attack and low defense", Qin Jiandan spoke even more boldly:
"Our money was originally put together. You can spend whatever you want, and I have no objection. But I don't like to hear the word "hand over". If you want me to hand over, just call me husband!" "
"You scream! Don't you dare? Are you embarrassed? Hahahaha——"
Qin Jiandan, who had just drank, was more excited than usual, and the muscles on his shoulders were shaking with laughter.
Suddenly Linlin took a deep breath next to her:
"Husband! Husband, husband, husband, husband, husband!!"
The empty wine glass in Qin Jiandan's hand almost fell to the ground. He really didn't expect his sister to spare it.
After calling out "husband" so many times in one breath, Linlin finally ran out of breath. Her little face turned red from holding back, and she reached out to Qin Jiandan with tears in her eyes:
"I asked you to hand over all the money in your wallet."
Willing to admit defeat, Qin Jiandan subconsciously looked for his wallet, but remembered that the wallet was in his jacket and was thrown on the road because it was corroded by acid.
Qin Jiandan spread his hands and said he didn't have a wallet. Linlin's mouth narrowed:
"Spent it on other women! You spent so much money that you don't have a dime left, and when you get home, you ask your sister to call you husband?"
Qin Jiandan put his hands together in a sign of supplication:
"Linlin, it was my fault. Don't stop shouting! If someone hears you..."
Aunt He coughed, did that mean "I'm not a human being?"
Qin Jiandan changed his words: "If someone other than Aunt He hears it, what nonsense should I say?"
Linlin bent down in front of the coffee table and put away the empty wine glass her brother had placed there. There is a deposit for the wine glass. If Linlin does not put it away securely every time, the careless brother will always lose or break it.
"I don't... don't have as many tricks as the women in the Luo Ying group." Lin Lin turned her back to her brother and sniffed.
"When a hacker is wanted by the company, he can't go to the inner city. His legs and feet are also not good, so he can't run wildly with his brother. I'm afraid there will be problems with other intense actions that my brother wants to do."
Qin Jiandan decided not to ask what "other intense actions" meant.
"But..." Linlin turned around suddenly, the grievance in her eyes was like that of an oppressed little animal.
"But are tricks so important to my brother? Anyway, I think so. If you marry a woman from the Luo Ying group, you might as well marry me!"
Aunt He tore open another snack package. She watched a large-scale ethical and emotional TV series at close range and was completely fascinated.
Qin Jiandan felt deeply grateful: Fortunately, I didn't bring the police chief back tonight. Not only my master, but also my sister is waiting for me here!
As Aunt He watched, Linlin's attack and defense numbers skyrocketed, and Qin Jiandan had a headache as to what to do next.
"Can I borrow the shower room to take a bath?" Qin Jiandan finally said, "Not only is there acid rain on my body, but there are also residual corrosive fluids on my body. If I sleep like this, I'm worried that I won't be able to get the sheets."
Aunt He stood up and said goodbye: "Young master, I'll leave first. I'll talk to Linlin after you finish taking a shower."
Before going out, he winked at Linlin.
Qin Jiandan couldn't wait to rush to Lao Wang Fried Chicken Shop to buy 20 portions of fried chicken, and then throw the wrapping paper into the headquarters yard.
Aunt He, you are too old to practice cultivation! It's almost 12 o'clock in the middle of the night after I take a shower. Why do you want Linlin to talk to me? You don't want to talk about a dangerous topic like marrying me while wrapped in a bath towel!
However, it was impossible not to take a shower, so Qin Jiandan had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk into the shower room.
