This damned mission was physically and mentally exhausting. Hao Ren, who had been an ordinary civilian for more than 20 years, was obviously not used to the high-energy life of a behind-the-scenes hero — although he was not even at the level of a behind-the-scenes minion.
Contacting Raven 12345 went smoothly. The neurotic goddess was tidying up her plants in the yard. Hao Ren saw on the holographic projection that Raven 12345 was still carrying the huge machete. She looked like a tomboy who had just come back from a comic convention.
Hao Ren recounted his experience of the past two days with a tired expression. At the end of it, he had a slight look of anticipation on his face. "Things have gone smoothly. Do you think my performance is okay?"
Raven 12345 nodded and said, "Well, it's not bad."
Hao Ren was speechless.
It seemed that he should not have expected this unreliable guy to say anything good in the first place.
"Why, do you want me to give you a first-class merit?" Raven 12345 could easily see the awkward look on Hao Ren's face. She smiled mischievously. "Do you think it's a difficult mission to travel half the world to pick up a harmless new tenant?"
"I think it's quite difficult. You have to take my situation into consideration," Hao Ren muttered. "I even fought with hundreds of revenants and met a silly half-baked demon hunter. That was thrilling enough for me."
Raven 12345 pondered for a moment, then unexpectedly nodded slightly. "Well, that can barely be called extraordinary performance. According to the manual, your body should be in the initial stage of strengthening, and your combat power is barely over 5. But you did not back down when you did not have much combat power. This is quite unexpected. Then I will give you a reward when you come back... Just barely enough to give you a military merit. Although you are carrying out a civilian mission, the Space Administration's military merit system also includes such civilian missions. "
Hao Ren's interest was piqued. He wanted to ask about the military merit, but Raven 12345 did not seem to be in the mood to explain. So, Hao Ren could only ask something else. "Y 'zaks has been picked up. How do I transport him back? I just found out something. You did pay enough for the travel expenses... but you didn't help Y'zaks with the entry and exit procedures! Right now, he's still holding onto the information he needed for his original landing spot, and he's holding onto a China ID card … "
Raven 12345 suddenly slapped her head. "Hey, no wonder I feel like something is missing! I've only done the paperwork for you! "
Hao Ren suddenly felt that it was the right decision to not have high hopes for Raven 12345 from the beginning.
"Wait a minute. Y 'zaks' immigration procedures, right?" Raven 12345 did not look embarrassed at all. "Logically speaking, these things should be handled by my various agents, but this time, I'll do it for you personally. Wait a minute, I'll start the paperwork now... 1.2.3, yes, it's done. "
When Hao Ren heard that Raven had just started the paperwork, he was about to turn off the MDT. He thought that it would take him at least a day and a half to get the results, but he did not expect that in the blink of an eye, Raven 12345 had already done everything. Raven 12345 cheerfully let Hao Ren stretch out his hand. "Open your hand. Yes, hold it tight. Let's go!"
Hao Ren felt a weight on his hand. When he came to his senses, a large file was already lying in his hand.
"Holy sh * t, this speed..." Hao Ren gaped at the full set of documents that were completed in three seconds. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. "I haven't seen anything else, but how did you manage to do this?! Instant verification plus a space-time delivery... "
Raven 12345 heard Hao Ren mumbling and immediately asked curiously, "What did you say?"
"Err, nothing. I was just saying that you're pretty fast. Hehe, pretty fast..."
"Nonsense, no matter what, I have the title of a goddess. Alright, now that the paperwork is complete, don't stay out for too long. Come back quickly. You've made a lot of noise. Be careful not to get into trouble if you stay too long. "
After saying that, Raven 12345 hung up the communication unilaterally. It was not clear if she was concerned or not.
The rest of the matter was finally settled. Initially, Hao Ren and the rest wanted to rest in London for a day or two, at least to recover from the physical and mental exhaustion caused by the previous high-energy night. But now, even the unreliable Raven 12345 had taken the initiative to remind them to go home to avoid trouble. She had also prepared plane tickets for them to depart the next day. Of course, they had to hurry back home.
When he set foot on his familiar homeland again, Hao Ren took a deep breath in the stale air of the Southern Suburbs. His experience in a foreign country was like a dream. Only the two-meter-tall, burly man standing beside him reminded him that everything was real.
Suddenly, Hao Ren remembered the half-baked demon hunter that he had met and bid farewell to in a hurry. Perhaps it was because of his special identity and the experience of fighting side by side with Hao Ren (after all, they were fated to meet once in a while), Hao Ren had a deep impression of Nangong. Although he was a joker and an incompetent second-hand dealer, Nangong's' fighting 'spirit was quite impressive. It was a pity that when Hao Ren left, he did not bid farewell to Nangong. In fact, Vivian did not want to have anything to do with Nangong. After all, he was a demon hunter.
However, they did not know if there was really a demon hunter behind Nangong. They also did not know if Nangong would become some kind of hidden danger. It was a little unsettling. Of course, Nangong was successfully fooled by Hao Ren and did not suspect Hao Ren's identity. The meteorite that fell from the sky also prevented Nangong from continuing to investigate the matter. However, Hao Ren always felt that the main reason why Nangong was so easily fooled was that he had hit him hard with the brick. It was hard to say when Nangong would stop feeling dizzy and start thinking about what happened that day …
Anyway, even if the sky fell, there would be a tall one to hold it up. There was a two-meter-tall man standing next to him.
After thinking it through, Hao Ren felt refreshed. Coincidentally, the familiar big house appeared in front of him. He was immediately in high spirits. He patted Y 'zaks' elbow and introduced his new home to the great demon. "Look, that's where I live!"
Y 'zaks' face was expressionless. He was neither dissatisfied nor surprised. He just nodded indifferently. "Oh, quiet. As long as it's quiet. I can live a peaceful life from now on. "
Hao Ren gave Y 'zaks a strange look. "Big guy, is there something on your mind? Why do you look so bored along the way? Sometimes you talk a lot, and sometimes you don't even say a word. "
Y 'zaks smiled kindly. Unfortunately, even if he put on an expression, his face was still scary. "It's nothing. I've lived for a long time, and there's always something bothering me. But it's all over now. Now I've fought enough, and I've had enough troubles. I just want to find a place where no one will disturb me for the rest of my life. The Space Administration has promised to arrange such a place for me to live until I don't want to live anymore … Say, you don't mind, do you? "
Hao Ren thought: The Space Administration really did not stand on ceremony. They just made the decision to sell me for the rest of my life. But thinking that he did sign the contract, he still put on an indifferent expression. "Whatever. I'm just renting anyway. It doesn't matter who lives in it."
He was telling the truth, just that he did not know that his tenants would turn into a bunch of non-human beings!
The house was still the same as when he left. It was just that no one had cleaned it for a few days, and there was dust everywhere. Fortunately, the main furniture and electrical appliances had been covered by the meticulous and diligent Vivian with a lot of tarpaulin that she dug out from the basement. It was not troublesome to tidy up. Looking at the vampire happily running around in the house to fetch water, wipe the floor and tidy up the room, Y 'zaks expression finally became a little strange. "She's … usually responsible for this?"
The big demon had mistakenly thought that living here would be responsible for the chores.
"Vivian's situation is special," Hao Ren explained with a dry smile. "She can't afford the rent, so she takes the initiative to do the chores … But it's all voluntary. Anyway, Raven 12345 has said that you can ask her for reimbursement of your expenses."
Y 'zaks blinked. "Looks like I still have a lot of things to familiarize myself with …"
Hao Ren continued to laugh dryly. There was only one thought in his mind: You still have a lot of things to familiarize yourself with. Rollie should hear the commotion and come home soon. By then, Y 'zaks would have to figure out why a cat would be the second-in-command of the house …
(Another colleague in the online literature circle died suddenly from overwork. Sad. It is said that he was like most other authors. Piracy was rampant outside, and his income was meager. Even if he died suddenly in front of the computer, the most he would gain would be pirated readers scolding him as a eunuch. I can't help but sigh that it's not easy to be in this industry. Rest in peace, the living move forward.)
