Irin remained silent.
Master Ma continued to smoke.
In the blink of an eye, only the cigarette butt was left.
He continued, "Although my hot pot restaurant is doing well, it hasn't reached the point where it's well-known. I still have this bit of self-awareness."
Doing well?
Irin silently looked at the flies circling around the ceiling and nodded in agreement.
"You look like you're in your twenties. Have you graduated from university? Are you looking for a job? Hehe, I don't think so. "
"He came to my shop without any hesitation. Faced with such a small salary and conditions that weren't too harsh, he agreed without batting an eyelid."
"Moreover, your facial features are ordinary, but your eyebrows are sharp at the front and wide at the back. You have a mole in your Life Palace, red streaks in your eyes, and three wrinkles at the end of your eyes. You're either ferocious or extremely evil … "
Irin slowly typed a question mark.
"Of course, your appearance isn't important. The point is, if you don't give a real reason why you're applying for the job, I'll be suspicious, young man!"
Master Ma pressed the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it to extinguish it. He stared at Irin with an uncertain expression.
Irin heard this.
He sighed.
"To be honest, I'm here for a vacation."
Master Ma raised his eyebrows.
It was as if he was saying, "Who are you trying to fool?"
"Vacation?"
"Alright, I'll tell you the truth."
Irin reluctantly showed his personal ID to Master Ma and said, "Actually, my family asked me to come out and gain experience. If I can't prove that I have the ability to support myself, I won't be able to inherit my father's fortune. I don't have much pocket money recently. I can't be so thick-skinned as to ask for money from my family. "
Master Ma was slightly stunned when he saw the string of zeros on Irin's account.
Although it didn't seem like much, if it was pocket money … then it was a little too much!
"Of course, money isn't important." Irin added, "What's important is that I thought this restaurant looked the most leisurely."
Master Ma was speechless.
In the end, because of Irin's honesty, Master Ma let Irin stay.
There was a single room upstairs in the hot pot restaurant. The attic was about four square meters. Other than the bed, there were walls on all four sides. It was very depressing.
But to the Irin, it did not matter.
He did not intend to take a month's salary from Master Zuma. It was not bad to have a place to stay.
The hot pot restaurant was indeed thriving.
If even flies counted as customers.
There were only four tables in the entire hot pot restaurant. Even during peak hours, the four tables could not be filled.
Regarding Yi Lin's reason, Master Ma was also half-believing and half-doubting. However, under the premise that Irin did not show any obvious malice, he directly ordered Irin around as cheap labor. Even the work of washing the dishes in the kitchen was all handed over to Irin.
In his words, the dishwasher was a waste of electricity and cheap labor. It would be a waste not to use it.
The Irin's working life had finally stabilized.
"Grandmaster Ma."
"My surname is Ma, and my name is Master."
"Gender: Male, likes women, smokes, drinks, likes gambling, is afraid of death."
"In the future, he calls himself King Gou. He claims that he is the man who knows how to survive until the end."
"It is said that he became an apostle three years ago and has been living until now."
"But the strange thing is that his level has never been high. Every time he went through the trial, I don't know if he was intentionally controlling himself or if he was really lucky, but he always passed the trial with an extremely low grade of D or C. He trained himself to be able to escape."
"But there are rumors that Grandmaster Ma is the descendant of the ancient martial arts Ma family. His' Five Consecutive Lightning Whips' is as fast as lightning and no one can block it. I don't know if it is true or not."
"In the future, he spends more time hiding than appearing. Not many people have seen him in action."
At night, Irin's mind silently flashed through Grandmaster Ma's vague information.
"However, what he is most famous for in the circle is not his gou, nor is it his' Five Consecutive Lightning Whips' fist technique. It is his ability to collect information."
"It's precisely because of Master Ma that every time he passes the trial with an extremely low evaluation. He has passed more trials than anyone of the same level. He also knows a lot of people in the trials and has a wide network of connections. Even the special group has a certain connection with him.
"I also heard that because this guy has too many people on his contact list, in order to avoid unnecessary harassment, he even charges for small talk. 100 DP for a reply, no discount. Long distance chat is capped at 10 messages, and face-to-face chat is calculated separately."
The current Grandmaster Ma should not have any information about Irin.
After all, Irin's level was too fast. After a few trials, he almost jumped four levels. In the blink of an eye, he had already reached level 20, level 3. He did not have any contact with Grandmaster Ma.
But in another timeline, Irin had also bought information from Grandmaster Ma.
Part of the information about the Eight Shadows came from this guy's summary.
From a certain perspective, this guy was a weirdo.
As he thought.
Irin lay down on the bed that was emitting a moldy smell, he did not say anything.
From the looks of it, this guy's' history 'was no different from what he remembered.
Since he sold information about 'Xiao Yang' in the future, then Grandmaster Ma must have had contact with 'Xiao Yang'.
But in this timeline, Xiao Yang fell to the ground early and became a box. Grandmaster Ma did not have any contact with Xiao Yang, so he did not know if there were any changes in his growth path.
"Is there a way to completely rope him in?"
Irin thought about such a possibility.
In these days, Grandmaster Ma's suspicion of Irin gradually decreased.
They even became close.
Irin knew Grandmaster Ma's identity as an apostle.
But Grandmaster Ma only suspected Irin but did not have any evidence.
After all, other than being nimble at work, Irin did not give anything away.
And Wang Tiandi also tried his best to act as an ordinary watchdog. He squatted in front of the hot pot restaurant all day long, acting as a mascot.
He did not know if it was because of the dog, but the hot pot restaurant's business improved a lot.
Because of this, Grandmaster Ma was happy to let Irin stay and work. Looking at the business that was gradually getting better, he was happy all day long.
During this time, Su Xiaosu sent a message saying that she found something strange.
But Irin was busy in the restaurant at that time and did not have time to care. He just told them to do as they saw fit.
After all, Li Erpang was also an official member of the Special Forces. If the couple worked together, their strength would not be weak. They could defeat all their enemies, so nothing big should happen.
Even if something bad happened, it should be Zhao Yulong who had a headache. What did it have to do with Irin?
Hehe.
Only you, Zhao Yulong, are allowed to trick me?
You're not allowed to trick me back?
Thinking about this, Irin felt more at ease and let Fatso do whatever he wanted, so that he could use up his excess energy.
As the weather turned cold, more and more people liked to eat hot pot.
Especially spicy hot pot.
Perhaps this was another reason why the business was gradually improving.
During this period of observation, Irin found that Grandmaster Ma would leave the hot pot restaurant every few days. Every time he went out, he would be high-spirited and arrogant. But when he came back, he would be dejected and dispirited. No one knew what he was busy with.
Although curious, Irin suppressed the urge to follow Grandmaster Ma to find out what was going on and stayed in the restaurant peacefully to avoid being caught by Grandmaster Ma.
In the blink of an eye, it was December.
In the beginning.
The pedestrians all wore long sleeves at the same time. Some even wrapped themselves in thin scarves.
In the hot pot restaurant, it was in full swing.
It was warm and cozy.
The fragrant and spicy smell drifted out and attracted a lot of customers.
When he was serving the dishes to the customers, Irin suddenly felt a sharp pain from the Brand of Death on his chest.
But Irin's expression was normal. He only paused for a moment. Then, he endured the pain and steadily served the dishes to the customers. His face did not twitch, and his hands did not tremble.
The pain came and went quickly.
"Boss, I want to take a leave of absence."
"Oh? Leave of absence? "
Old Ma was smoking a cigarette and looking at the rising numbers on the account book. When he heard this, he raised his oily face and asked casually, "Didn't we agree that we would work hard without complaint and never leave each other until death? Who gave you the right to take a leave of absence? What's wrong? You don't want to work anymore? Do you still want to go home and inherit your old man's legacy? "
Irin wiped the sweat on his forehead and said helplessly, "Well, the weather is cold. I ran out of home in a hurry this time and didn't bring any clothes. I'm going to take advantage of the fact that there aren't too many customers now to go out and buy some winter clothes. If I get sick, won't you have one less person to work for you? "
"You think too much. You have to work even if you get sick."
Irin was speechless, "Be careful that I report you."
Grandmaster Ma thought about it and put out the cigarette butt. He waved his hand impatiently, "Okay, get out of here. I'll deduct one day of your salary. You don't lack money anyway."
Irin smiled and didn't care. He took off his work uniform with the words "Gouxiong" printed on it and left the hot pot restaurant.
As soon as he left.
Grandmaster Ma's expression suddenly froze. He stared at the direction where Irin left and remained silent.
Irin walked slowly to the city center, the most prosperous area.
Although it was the most prosperous area in Liangcheng County with many high-rise buildings, it was still a lot behind the scale of construction in Huating City.
At the very least, even the air rail train had not been set up.
Irin did not delay and walked directly into the mall.
"This one, this one, and this one. Give me all of them to try."
Although it was not easy to make a living in a physical store, there was no lack of high-end clothing stores with customers who liked to shop. They would not open for business in March, but they would open for business in March. Seeing Irin, a young man who looked fair and clean, come to try on clothes, the waiters immediately greeted him warmly and kept promoting the benefits of the style Irin chose.
"The style is very suitable for your temperament, this is the latest winter clothes, and so on."
They even fooled him by saying that he was so handsome that he couldn't find a girlfriend because he lacked clothes to show his temperament.
Irin tried on clothes one by one.
From the beginning, 15 seconds, 20 seconds, 30 seconds, until one minute.
From the first store, to the second, to the third.
After shopping for two hours, Irin was trying on clothes, but he didn't buy a single one.
In the distance.
A figure whispered, "Why did Grandmaster Ma ask me to follow this guy? I don't see how strange he is, but he is quite troublesome. He is quite picky. "
At this time.
Irin took another piece of clothes that looked expensive and went into the fitting room.
He specially checked that there was no hidden surveillance or something like that.
It was safe.
"Enter the inner world."
Irin chuckled in a low voice.
In an instant, Irin disappeared from the fitting room.
…
…
Not long ago.
The capital.
Molly's laboratory.
A man with long black hair walked into the laboratory unhurriedly.
Strangely, no one paid attention to where the long-haired man passed.
The professional security guard at the door didn't even lift his eyelids, as if he didn't see the long-haired man pass by.
All the surveillance cameras shook for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
Molly was squatting in the secret laboratory, holding a smart wrench and knocking on Nightmare's armor plate.
"Oh, damn, don't, there, no, oh, here, itchy, painful, ah, oh, oh … Beautiful lady, please be gentle."
"I hope your heart can be as calm as water, as wide as the sea, and as boundless as the eye."
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
A sullen expression formed on Mo Li's face, and she knocked even harder.
The Nightingale howled.
It was very miserable.
Even the wheels of the cart had been removed.
At this moment.
Molly heard footsteps behind her.
She didn't turn her head and said subconsciously, "Why are you back?"
"Oh, long time no see."
Molly was stunned.
Then she turned around.
Her expression was first surprised, then shocked, and finally serious.
The wrench in her hand also fell to her feet with a clang.
"'You', who are you?"
"…"
She didn't know if it was a coincidence or not.
Behind Mo Li, the Nightcrawler, which was still howling in pain, turned into a ray of light and disappeared from this world.
