Of course, Lin Jie didn't know that his neighbor was on the verge of a mental breakdown, and was even more mentally devastated.
Moreover, he was going to hire a professional to "eliminate the demon".
But even if he knew, he would probably laugh it off, or even persuade the other party not to waste money, and use his warm words and reliable image to dispel the other party's misunderstandings.
At this moment, Lin Jie was using a chainsaw to cut the wood taken from the basement, preparing to make himself a bed to sleep on.
Although it was called a bed, it was actually a wooden frame nailed out with a piece of wood, very simple.
But fortunately, his technical class was passable, his hands-on skills weren't weak, and there was no lack of tools in the basement, otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to make such a bed.
In this way, he still tossed and turned for a full three hours, and the outside was already bright enough to see the street clearly.
Although the weather was still gloomy and humid, and the sky was very dark, the damn rain that lasted for a whole month finally stopped, and it was enough to make people feel relieved and happy.
Sawing the wood was just the beginning, and assembling it was also a physical work.
"Phew … Finally done."
Lin Jie put the hammer and nails in his hand aside, looked at the finished product in front of him with satisfaction, and moved his shoulders and arms. The first website was m.9biquge. com
"But unexpectedly, it's not very tiring, much easier than I thought."
Lin Jie was a little strange and habitually wanted to touch his chin, but then he realized that his hands were now full of small wood shavings. With a look of disgust, he patted his hands, looked at the mess on the ground, and sighed: "I still have to clean it up myself …"
"Do you need help?"
A girl's voice came, and Lin Jie turned his head to see Mo En, who just got a new name not long ago, standing at the corner of the stairs looking down. A few strands of hair fell on her white cheeks, and there was no emotion in her dark eyes.
"Hmm? May I … Mo En? "
Although taking in an assistant was to share some of the work, now that this assistant had just been revived, its durability was a little low, and Lin Jie was very worried that the mess he had to clean up later would not only be the wood shavings on the ground.
Moen nodded, then tilted his head and thought for a moment. He raised his arms and bent his joints, making a "strong" posture.
Lin Jie looked at the little girl's slender arm that was exposed from her sleeve and the bandage that he had personally wrapped around her arm. She looked miserable.
Coupled with his serious expression that seemed to be saying "no problem at all", it was even somewhat inexplicably funny.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Alright, then help me clean up the debris on the floor. The brooms, dustpans, and garbage bags are all behind the counter. Be careful, don't …"
Moen immediately said, "I won't break it."
Lin Jie covered his face and sighed, "I believe you won't. What I'm saying is, be careful not to aggravate your injuries. You must always put yourself first, understand?"
He said seriously, "A broom can be replaced by thousands of brooms, but you only have one."
Moen put down her hand, she wanted to refute that according to the researchers, she could be mass-produced. But when she met Lin Jie's serious gaze, she suddenly realized that there might be some difference between the two meanings.
Very different … It was hard for her to describe or explain this feeling, but it was as if she felt the temperature that she felt on Lin Jie's back again.
The temperature of a human.
Moen slowly nodded, looking at Lin Jie who turned back with satisfaction and continued to toss his newly made bed, and then moved it upstairs.
What a strange man. He obviously felt so scary, but in this kind of normal time, he seemed like an ordinary person, just like her judgment at the beginning.
But now, she definitely wouldn't believe in such an illusion.
Mo En carefully walked to the corner of the counter and looked at the bookshelves that were still full of indescribable inspirations that made her hair stand on end. She then took out all the cleaning tools she needed to clean the bookshelves.
She had seen the person in charge of cleaning in the laboratory do these before, so she knew how to use them.
After the initial awkwardness, she slowly got used to it.
When Lin Jie moved the bed halfway up the stairs, he reminded her, "You can call me boss or store manager in the future."
Moen readily followed his advice, "Boss."
Lin Jie placed the bed in the bedroom, looking at his original bed, the sheets and quilt were neatly arranged, he couldn't help but sigh at how sensible this child was.
He laid out the spare bedding, took a deep breath, looked at the light coming in through the window, and felt that everything was better.
After that, Lin Jie went downstairs and cleaned up the scene with Mo En. Then, he led the girl around the bookstore. Finally, he took a shower and opened the store for business.
"I feel that there probably won't be any customers today."
Lin Jie sat behind the counter as usual, casually flipping through the register, and suddenly said,
"Oh yes, you also need to record the information of the future customers, the time they borrowed the books, and the books they lent out. Take a look and familiarize yourself with it."
He said as he handed the register to Moen.
The girl took it stiffly, looked at it silently, and then fell into silence.
"What's wrong, if you have any questions, feel free to ask."
Lin Jie, who was amiably preparing to guide the child, didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at this time.
It wasn't until he finally finished a series of stuttering conversations that he realized that his newly recruited assistant didn't have any common sense.
No, it wasn't that she didn't have any common sense, to be precise, she didn't have any systematic common sense.
The knowledge she had now was "seen" from others, and she lacked systematic education.
The most simple and direct trouble was that she was illiterate, but she could understand higher-level words, such as some philosophical and mathematical terms …
Lin Jie rubbed his temples, feeling that this matter was giving him a headache.
What kind of environment did this child live in?
Moen looked at his expression, pursed her lips and said, "I can learn."
Lin Jie felt that the girl was a little frightened and uneasy, so he adjusted his expression and gently comforted her, "It's good that you want to learn. You are very smart, and it won't take long for you to learn these things. I'm not in a hurry now, when you learn them, your injuries will be almost healed, and it won't be too late to help me then."
"How about this, you read the books first, and compare them with what you have learned before. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me."
Lin Jie stood up, thought for a moment, and took a phonetic version of the children's encyclopedia and a children's dictionary from the bookshelf, and handed them to Moen.
The cyborg girl stared at the "Key to the Door: General Knowledge" and "Basic Runes" on the book cover, and subconsciously took a step back.
Lin Jie thought to himself, Are you serious about taking half a step back?
He looked at the book in his hand suspiciously, I didn't take the wrong book …
Then he felt that this "children's version" might have hurt the other party's self-esteem, so he showed a kind smile and said earnestly, "You can't be fat with just one bite, don't despise these two books for being elementary, this is the foundation, you know? There's still more to learn in the future."
