Even though the five-digit White Hair Succubus did not look reliable, she would not go wrong when she promised. Hao Ren waited for the funds allocated to him by the organization. Looking at the extra digits on his bank card, he felt like crying. This was such a good treatment. If only Raven 12345 had slapped this string of zeros on his face, he would have signed the contract without hesitation!
Hao Ren realized one thing: he had to learn to break away from the mindset of a commoner. He had to look at a monster organization like the "Space Administration" from a higher perspective. The currency in the world was probably just a tool for this organization, and it was an unlimited quantity. Hao Ren wanted to hold the bank card and ask Raven 12345 to give him a few more zeros, but after thinking about it, he was too embarrassed to do so …
In any case, the living expenses were settled, and Vivian's food expenses for at least two years were also covered. Ever since that useless vampire moved into the house, Hao Ren had been feeding her for free. He said that he was hiring a babysitter to offset the rent. In fact, it was mostly a joke. Hao Ren was just an ordinary person. How could he raise his social status to such a level? He was just looking for an excuse to let himself and Vivian accept the fact that they were living for free. But now, this was no longer a problem. The five-digit White Hair Succubus had given him enough funds for the three of them to travel around the world. She was just asking them to pick someone up from England …
On the way to the Capital International Airport, Vivian kept nagging, "Mr. Landlord, do you think the Space Administration is still hiring? I can go over and help them with the refrigeration! "
When they were on the plane, Vivian was still nagging. Hao Ren could not help but say, "Come on, it requires talent, you know? I'm a reserve civil servant and a candidate for the Holy Son. Do you think it's that easy? Besides, the White Hair Succubus' house is warm in the winter and cool in the summer. She's a goddess, I don't think she needs an air conditioner …"
Vivian had been keeping the house cool for the past two days. To save on electricity bills, the three of them had tacitly accepted her as an air conditioner.
The vampire maiden pursed her lips. She then leaned against the porthole of the plane and looked curiously at the ground crew below. She muttered, "Is it okay to leave Rollie at home?"
Don't forget where it came from, "Hao Ren was not worried at all. This time, his family was going out together, so naturally, cats were not allowed on the plane. It was not practical to arrange an international consignment for the beast, so he left Rollie at home and asked a neighbor to take care of it. But in fact, Hao Ren was very sure that the clever beast was more likely to sneak out the next day to fend for itself: it had a criminal record." Back in the day, it dominated all the cat and dog dens on the street with less than ten pounds. Its ability to survive in the wild is better than mine. Two years ago, when I first took care of it, I was worried every time I went out. But now, I'm not afraid anymore. If I throw it out for a month, it will come back more than half a kilogram heavier … "
"Landlord, what do you think the UK should be like? I've never been there before. " Lily was sitting opposite Hao Ren. She was now looking at the scenery outside the window and asked curiously, "How do we land on all fours?"
This time, the "activity funds" were abundant. Hao Ren also bought a first-class cabin with the air of a nouveau riche. So, the three of them were spacious and there was also a partition between them and the other passengers. Lily, who could not stay still, had been fidgeting for half a day before the plane took off. Of course, the reason for buying a first-class cabin was because of the abundant funds. More importantly, the first-class cabin had better privacy. Hao Ren knew that he was bringing along two very special people. Although in theory, these two experienced superwomen would not let him down, he still had to be cautious. He wanted to keep the two of them at a distance during the journey. This way, it would be more convenient to talk about "confidential topics".
"How would I know? I've never been there before." Hao Ren shrugged and turned to look at Vivian. "Oh right, let me confirm again. You've really been to the UK, right? We'll be relying on you to guide us there. You claim that you can speak English... "
"Of course, I value my reputation very much. I won't speak nonsense." Vivian puffed out her chest. "After all, I've traveled around the world. I already knew that the Earth was round when you humans ate raw meat. Where haven't I been? I've even been in the Vatican as... "
Hao Ren hurriedly coughed twice. "Ahem, don't mention the days when you were just a freeloader in the church. I really don't know what your people would think if they knew about your glorious past."
"Them? I haven't seen them for hundreds of years. Most of them are stubborn idiots. A few smart ones are better at hiding than I am. "Vivian shrugged." Our tribe is very loose. Even during our heyday, we were scattered. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been marginalized to this extent. Sigh, let's not talk about the past. It makes me depressed. Why am I so muddle-headed? "
Hao Ren chuckled. "Hehe, you know how muddle-headed you are. Alright, as long as you can speak English and know the way, it'll save us the trouble of finding a guide. We can't ask anyone else for help. That Raven said that in order to train the new employees, she didn't even give us a map... "
Vivian patted her chest confidently. "Don't worry, don't worry. Even Arthur Pendragon didn't scold me. I've lived there for more than 130 years. I can speak English like my mother tongue."
Hao Ren listened to her in a daze. He had a feeling that something was not right. However, Vivian's words contained too much information. It did not give him a chance to analyze it in detail. In the end, he nodded his head and did not delve deeper into the matter.
After a while, Hao Ren noticed that Lily still had no intention of calming down. So, he found a topic to attract the werewolf maiden's attention. "I've always wanted to ask. How did you settle your identity in the human world? Especially you, Lily. How did you settle it? "
This question had been bothering Hao Ren for a few days. Aside from Vivian, who was old and experienced, how did Lily, the dumbass, manage to deal with her identity in modern society? She had been traveling the world since the era of the Republic of China. She was already a famous literary woman in Shanghai when she was still a citizen. It had been almost a hundred years since then, and the form of citizenship had been changed many times. How could an idiot like Lily do so well in the human world? In fact, she seemed to be doing better than Vivian. That was really curious.
Lily squatted down on her seat. The pointy ears on her head twitched. "It's not that difficult. I've seen with my own eyes how your society was built from scratch. I know how to live in the human world. It's not difficult at all."
At this point, Lily suddenly raised her head cleverly. Her usually unreliable brain finally became smart for once. "Why me? Do you think I'm stupid? "
Hao Ren quickly shook his head. Vivian turned her face away as if she could not bear to look at Lily. Lily started to point out, "I know you guys don't think I'm very smart. My sixth sense is very sharp. I just can't be bothered to argue with you guys. It's a matter of attitude. Landlord, let me tell you, I may not use my brain normally, but I have a lot of tricks up my sleeves! I know a lot of people, for example … Err, most of them are dead, so I won't talk about them. Anyway, I'm very smart! "
Hao Ren wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. His instincts told him that Lily was about to spill out a bunch of scary names, many of which were forbidden. Fortunately, the werewolf maiden had shut her mouth earlier than he had expected. Living with the two superwomen at home was a daily surprise. They talked about famous historical figures as if they were talking about the Old Zhao family on the street. They did not care how much their listeners were trembling.
At this time, the plane was ready to take off. A stewardess began to remind the passengers to sit down and fasten their seatbelts. Lily, who had been struggling for a long time, obediently fastened her seatbelt. Then, she and Hao Ren discovered a shocking fact: Vivian seemed to be shivering...
She was always calm and collected, or at least had the demeanor of a vampire. However, the moment the plane was about to take off, her expression started to change. She did not even know how to use her seatbelt. Hao Ren helped Vivian to buckle her seatbelt. He could not help but ask, "You're afraid of flying? You've grown wings yourself! "
"I've never flown on this …" Vivian said weakly.
Hao Ren was surprised. This vampire, who had squatted beside the Great Pyramid of Giza during its construction, had never flown on a plane before?
Vivian looked like she was about to cry. "I can't afford a plane ticket …"
Hao Ren was speechless.
