Although Christmas Eve and Christmas Eve were imported, in the era of cultural invasion between the East and the West, most of the young people in the East almost regarded this Western festival as a traditional festival.
Of course, it was a date!
All the hotels had been fully booked, and the tickets for all the major cinemas had been sold out. Christmas Eve had not arrived yet, and most of the new generation were not in the mood to work. Looking at the clock on the wall, coupled with the fact that tomorrow was a holiday weekend, they believed that the work pressure that had accumulated for a week would be released well.
"Don't dream! Even if Christmas is here, it can't change the nature of single dogs! Work overtime for me! "
In the newspaper office where Subeditor Ren worked, the boss stood in front of the office with his hands on his hips, scolding a group of employees who were not in the mood to work.
As a bystander, Lizi had no pressure to be scolded by the single dogs. She was trying to destroy a new flavor of potato chips. But Subeditor Ren next to her was full of sadness, sighing, like a woman locked in the depths of a big house, watching the autumn leaves fall.
For a moment, Lizi seemed to see the landlord's concubine wearing a kimono during the Meiji Restoration a hundred years ago.
"Sister Ren, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm going to die …" Ren Ziling lay on the table. She looked like a defeated dog, as if she had been ruined countless times. She looked at Li Zi in despair and said, "This month's performance is not good. I still have three articles to write, and I haven't written a column … I still have to write a public account tonight …"
"But Sister Ren, isn't working overtime the right way for you to start your daily life?"
The sound of potato chips breaking in Lizi's mouth was like the sound of Ren Ziling's glass heart breaking. She opened her eyes weakly, "Luoqiu asked me to have dinner tonight, saying that it's a rare holiday, and You Ye … I refused. Because of this damn overtime … "
Lizi blinked, "Don't you have me to accompany you?"
"No, thank you."
"Eat potato chips?" Lizi blinked her eyes and was reluctant, but she still took out a piece of potato chip and fed it to Ren Ziling.
Ren Ziling also opened her mouth and chewed it into pieces.
Li Zi giggled and said, "It's time to work!"
"Let me …" Ren Ziling said seriously, "Let me free myself again."
It was obvious that he was in the last stage of laziness and had given up on treatment long ago.

Purple Star's original clothes were a bit strange, like the clothing of an ethnic minority. Going out like this would inevitably attract a lot of strange gazes. Considering this, Zhuifeng proposed to change her clothes.
However, the only clothes he could find were the ones he had worn before. Was there a need to buy them?
Unfortunately, the human world did not employ child labor for the time being. Without a job, the three meals a day basically depended on hunting or eating at Cheese's house. Zhuifeng searched the entire 'house' and only found a few coins.
Of course, there was another way for monsters to earn money quickly, and that was to use their own condensed demonic beads to exchange for money at the Elysium Bar.
But although the Elysium Bar had this kind of service, for the monsters, demonic power was their foundation. Naturally, not many monsters were willing to use this service. It was already a little difficult to spend money in the bar. Wouldn't it be stupid to exchange for money in the human world?
"I'm sorry, I can only find these for the time being …" Zhuifeng looked at Purple Star who had put on his clothes, "But you can rest assured that I washed it very well! Three times! Three times! "
"Give me your hat for a moment." Zixing chuckled. She reached out and took off the hat from Windchaser's head, then put it on her own head. Coincidentally, her long ears that couldn't be hidden for the time being were also included.
Thinking that Purple Star not only wore his hat and clothes, but even the underwear inside was also his, Zhuifeng felt a sense of dryness in his mouth.
'Should I … not wash the clothes after changing out of them?'
"Zhuifeng, Zhuifeng?" Purple Star suddenly called out softly.
"I'm not messing up …" Zhuifeng came back to his senses, "Ah? What did you just say? I didn't hear it clearly … "
Purple Star smiled, "I said, I am not familiar with this city. Where are you going to take me?"
Zhuifeng asked subconsciously, "I can take you wherever you want to go. There is no place here that I am not familiar with."
"Then … let's go there." Purple Star thought for a while, waved her hand, and pointed to a building in the center of the city.
This was the tallest building in the city, and it was located in the center of the city. Zhuifeng was taken aback. He didn't understand where Purple Star wanted to go, but he didn't ask much and agreed directly.
"Okay." Zhuifeng nodded, "But it is broad daylight now. Let's use the human method to go there! I'll drive you there! "
"Car?" Purple Star was slightly surprised.
However, when she saw Zhuifeng pushing out a semi-new bicycle at this time, she opened her mouth slightly, but in the end, she didn't speak. She just smiled and said, "Then let's go."
She didn't really agree to accompany Zhuifeng to go out, but it has been a few days since she was seriously injured that day. Now that she has recovered some strength to move, she naturally wanted to find news of her subordinates.
On that day, because two wolf warriors were suddenly killed by the white-haired human woman, when she used the secret technique Greedy Wolf's Descent, she had to extract a large amount of vitality from the remaining two warriors. Although she still had some reservations, the remaining two warriors were probably seriously injured at this time.
It's just that she didn't know if these two warriors were now looking for a place to heal their wounds or were also looking for the young master of Purple Star … Therefore, she agreed to Zhuifeng's invitation.
As for going to the highest place in the center of the city, she naturally had other plans … but she still needed to wait until midnight.
Since this Zhuifeng is acquainted with Master Long Jun … Should she use him to visit Master Long Jun? Purple Star thought to herself, but she quickly dispelled this idea.
The wolf clan was arrogant, not to mention the king of the wolf clan, the Greedy Wolf Clan. This time, not only did a human woman snatch the secret treasure, but as the young master, she was also seriously injured and her body degenerated. This kind of thing was really a disgrace to the name of the Greedy Wolf Clan. If it was spread out, she would be a sinner in the clan.
While thinking so, Purple Star followed Zhuifeng all the way down to the roof of the building where she was staying. Zhuifeng naturally carried the bicycle all the way down.
Purple Star didn't think much about it. She sat sideways at the back of the bicycle. While thinking about her future actions, she subconsciously used her right hand to support Zhuifeng's lower back and leaned forward slightly.
It was just that Zhuifeng seemed to suddenly stiffen his body, so Purple Star asked curiously, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
"Okay … Okay!"
…
…
Since Professor Cui Fo suggested using the secret method to improve magic power, whether it was Wang Yuechuan or himself, their magic power could see considerable growth every day.
With the improved magic power, they could refer more to the contents of the "Book of the Dead" to use magic. For the two who had just come into contact with this kind of power, it was naturally something that they couldn't help but be happy about.
The two were silent all day long in the development of new fields, and they were quite unaware of the passage of time.
"King … there are no places like mass graves nearby." Professor Cui Fo paced in the apartment at this time with his hands behind his back, "Without a large number of yin spirit transformation, our cultivation speed will return to the previous slow."
If it could be fast, it would not be slow. Anyone would be the same. Wang Yuechuan listened and nodded. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Professor, do you have any good suggestions?"
"That ritual requires a lot of yin spirits." Professor Cui Fo said quickly, "The mass graves we have used in the past few days are very effective, but in fact, the number of yin spirits is not much. According to the description in the "Book of the Dead", the longer the death, the better the quality of the yin spirits. These mass graves are old, and they are not in the best condition … I suggest that we go to the city's cemetery quietly. "
Wang Yuechuan shook his head and said, "Professor, our country uses cremation. Although it is a cemetery, most of them are empty. According to the "Book of the Dead", a person will be a single yin spirit after death, but they must foster a body for a period of time before they can leave. I'm afraid the situation in the cemetery is not the best choice. "
Professor Cui Fo patted his head and nodded, "I have neglected this. In my country, the bodies are sent to the cemetery … En, king, why don't we go abroad before the New Year? "
Wang Yuechuan was silent for a while and shook his head, "It is inconvenient for me to go abroad now … but it doesn't mean that I can't go abroad in the future. I need some time to prepare. As for the improvement of magic power, if there is really no way, then let's slow down. I can also consolidate it. "
Professor Cui Fo was obviously unwilling to do the so-called consolidation. In his opinion, the human body had infinite potential as a container of magic power. Under such a huge container, the more magic power improvement, the better. This Wang Yuechuan seemed to be a little conservative.
He shook his head and suggested abruptly, "There is another place where there should be a lot of yin spirits, and they are absolutely fresh. It is even easier for you to reach there."
Wang Yuechuan frowned, "You mean … the police station's morgue?"
Professor Cui Fo nodded and said with blazing eyes, "The" Book of the Dead "mentions that the more intense the hatred, unwillingness, despair, and other emotions are born in the body, the stronger the yin spirit after death. This part is most suitable for those who died unjustly … I think there must be a lot of such dead people in that place. "
Indeed, the corpses in that morgue were basically not unnatural deaths. Some of them had not even been claimed for a long time. In the words of these public officials, the morgue's resentment was extremely heavy. Many people in the organization who were assigned to guard the morgue were rumored to not look good. Some retired old people were still sick.
If it was because of the yin spirit, then this trip could not only improve his magic power, but he could also solve this so-called 'resentment' so that the civilian police officers working in the morgue would not be eroded by the yin spirit. It was a win-win situation.
Wang Yuechuan didn't think for too long and nodded.
It was just that it was troublesome to use crystals to set up a ritual array in the morgue. However, thinking that his current magic power was just enough to cast some of the magic mentioned in the "Book of the Dead", perhaps it was just the right time to experiment.
If it was successful, then it would explain why Cao Yu was able to take things from the evidence room openly without anyone seeing it.
"King?"
"Nothing." Wang Yuechuan shook his head slightly, "I just remembered some small things. I have no problem entering the morgue with my authority. I can even bring you in. However, professor, are you sure you want to go today? "
"Why not?" Professor Cui Fo smiled slightly.
Wang Yuechuan shrugged and said indifferently, "Today is Christmas Eve. For you, it should be the most important festival, right?"
For Cui Fo, this was equivalent to the traditional Spring Festival for Wang Yuechuan. Therefore, even if he knew that this place could improve his magic power, Wang Yuechuan would not touch such bad luck on such a traditional festival.
It was not because of superstition, but just a little respect for tradition. What's more, that place couldn't run away, and no one would use it. Naturally, he wouldn't be impatient.
Professor Cui Fo also smiled indifferently and waved his hand, "King, since we got the" Book of the Dead, "you and I are no longer ordinary people. We are already Transcendents. What's the point of this festival for us? It's more meaningful to improve our magic power. "
"Then … do as you wish." Wang Yuechuan nodded, "I'll change my clothes and go out."
When Wang Yuechuan entered the room, Professor Cui Fo sneered. He had accumulated enough magic power to launch a certain spell in the "Book of the Dead" that he had hidden.
As for Wang Yuechuan, after these few magic power improvements, his trust in Cui Fo had obviously increased a lot. His vigilance was not so strong.
"Christmas is such an important festival. How can I not?" Professor Cui Fo sneered in a low voice, "I even prepared a pretty good Christmas gift for myself."
…
Since No. 18 said that the mission had failed and asked Taisetsu to play by himself, Taisetsu hadn't seen No. 18. Of course, he could roughly feel No. 18's location, but he felt that the big sister probably didn't want to see anyone since only one day had passed, so he simply returned to the club.
Luoqiu didn't seem to be unhappy about the failure of this mission. But in Taisetsu's view, Luoqiu and the young man he met in Luo Village were still the same.
Although they were now in a master-servant relationship.
"Christmas Eve? I don't know. "
Boss Luo was fiddling with something in the study.
At this time, the maid and Taisetsu were drinking tea at this moment. Speaking of the traditional festival of the Western world, Taisetsu shook his head and said, "Didn't the boss tell you? I've spent most of the last ten years in a cell. Except for the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Spring Festival, what is there to celebrate? Not to mention Christmas. Speaking of which, You Ye should be a foreigner, right? How do you celebrate it? "
Taisetsu looked at Miss. Maid curiously.
Although she was drinking tea, as the exclusive servant of the master, Miss. Maid just stood from beginning to end, holding an exquisite teapot in her hand.
"Actually, it's almost impossible to celebrate it there." You Ye smiled and said, "In Russia, it's New Year's Eve. Of course, there is also Christmas, but it's different from the traditional December 25. "
Taisetsu was quite interested, "So strange? Tell me about it? "
"There is a so-called Red Coat Santa Claus at Christmas. As for Russia, there is actually a similar image." You Ye recalled and said, "But it's called Red Coat Santa Claus, and Miss Xue as an assistant to send gifts together. Um … The Christmas tree is also called a New Year tree … "
Taisetsu listened to some different cultures and finally asked curiously, "Since it's not, why did you put so much effort into it, as if you were looking forward to it?"
You Ye said softly, "Because, this is the first Christmas Eve that You Ye is accompanying the master."
Damn … he was stuffed with a mouthful of dog food.
Taisetsu secretly shook his head … he felt that it was more suitable for him to go out and wander.
"Are you talking about something happy?" Luoqiu's voice suddenly came. He slowly walked out, but he was holding many big and small boxes in his hands.
These boxes were beautifully packaged and couldn't help but look forward to it. Miss. Maid quickly came forward and shared the burden with Luoqiu.
"Nothing, just casually chatting." Taisetsu shook his head and also helped, then asked, "Boss, what are so many gifts for?"
Luoqiu said softly, "Of course … it's for my customers."
Taisetsu was stunned and asked subconsciously, "So many?"
