At this age, wouldn’t it be more appropriate to call her grandma, old woman, or old lady
Yi Xiaoya picked up the pipe at hand, took a puff and spit on Xu Le's face, revealing her mouth full of yellow teeth.
"Well, you are a little skinny, young man. You should eat more meat. You should be stronger at such a young age."
As Yi Xiaoya spoke, she did not forget to pinch Xu Le's arm.
Xu Le felt that the way she looked at him was not like she was looking at a person. Xu Le thought that the look was exactly the same as the picky look his mother had when she went to buy pork in her previous life.
And Xu Le also discovered one thing, Yi Xiaoya's teeth... are really yellow.
How long has it been since she brushed her teeth
No, if she really hasn’t brushed her teeth for a long time at her age, why haven’t her teeth fallen out
Are you wearing dentures
"Hello, I'm Xu Le. Are you Dr. Yi Xiaoya?"
"The title of Doctor makes me sound very old, I still prefer the way you addressed me just now.
Young man, call me Miss Yi, hehehehehe!"
Xu Le had a creepy feeling. This was not an exaggeration, but the hairs on his body really stood up.
This means that his body just felt a sense of crisis.
A seasonal movement from destiny
This old woman in front of me... could she be a warlock
It's not a possibility, it's absolute.
The old woman in front of me is definitely a sorcerer.
"Hello, Ms. Yi Xiaoya... I'm here to apply for the position of research assistant."
"Research assistant? Oh, what a hopeless position. But you're not the only assistant here.
He went out to buy me some wine! Hehehe."
Xu Le was stunned. It’s bad enough that you smoke at your age, but you also drink
Not to mention the effects of alcohol on a warlock, aren't you really afraid of high blood pressure if you drink at your age
And she even said that being a research assistant in her studio was a dead-end position... this old woman!
Could you please stop laughing like that
At your age, acting like a jeer in front of others feels like something out of a rural horror story.
Xu Le had been able to keep his composure at first, but he noticed that the old woman kept laughing there. For some reason, he felt that this place seemed a little eerie.
Is this what the mentor meant by strange
Xu Le frowned slightly and looked at the old woman, thinking, since you like to laugh like this, then let's do it together.
"Ms. Yi, do you think I can join the studio? Hehehe."
"Grandma, I'm back."
While the old man and the young boy were both making noises there, a slightly handsome young man came in with two bottles of wine and some food.
The lights in the room were a little dim at this time, and after hearing his shout, Xu Le and Yi Xiaoya looked at the man together.
Yi Xiaoya smiled and said:
"Are you back? Come meet a new friend. His name is Xu Le, the new assistant. I feel like you two will get along very well in the future."
The man glanced at Xu Le, then passed by Xu Le.
"knew."
It seemed that he had no interest in Xu Le and didn't even say his name.
This also caused Xu Le, who had been laughing awkwardly, to feel a little embarrassed.
"Um, hello, my name is Xu Le."
"My name is Levis."
After simply introducing his name, Levis picked up a piece of long bread and walked into the laboratory while eating.
Xu Le glanced at Yi Xiaoya:
"Miss Yi, who is he?"
Yi Xiaoya did not answer Xu Le immediately, but took out a bottle of wine and a jar of pickles from the things Levis bought.
The almost mummified fingers trembled slightly as he unscrewed the jar with force. His face was full of excitement, but his fingers trembled violently.
She quickly grabbed the bottle, her hand almost shaking, until she held the bottle with both hands, the situation got a little better.
But after she took a sip of wine, her fingers that had been shaking gradually calmed down.
Xu Le had seen this scene in some videos from his previous life.
Alcohol dependence.
After drinking, Yi Xiaoya's previous crazy feeling gradually disappeared.
She looked a little more normal now.
She ate the pickles and said:
"Didn't he introduce himself?"
"Um, I mean, be more specific?"
"His name is Levis. He is my great-great-great-grandson. I'm not sure how many times he has been here."
Great-great-great-grandchild
Xu Le was stunned at first, then suddenly realized a problem.
If the old woman in front of me is telling the truth, how old is she
120? Or more? 150
"Ms. Yi Xiaoya, how old are you this year?"
Xu Le asked hesitantly, because he didn't know whether it was impolite to ask the age of a person who might be over 100 years old.
Xu Le asked hesitantly, but Yi Xiaoya answered without hesitation.
She laughed strangely in front of Xu Le again, and then said shyly in her frosted voice, pinching her throat:
"Hehehe, I'm 18 years old this year, and I'll always be 18 years old, do you understand?"
Xu Le swallowed subconsciously, then nodded heavily.
"I see."
"Would you like some pickles? They're my favorite flavor."
Yi Xiaoya licked her fingers, which could almost be called sharp claws, then took out a pickle from the jar and handed it to Xu Le.
Xu Le quickly waved his hand to refuse:
"No, thanks, Miss Yi."
"Young people really don't know how to enjoy life. They are not willing to try such delicious food."
Yi Xiaoya swallowed the cucumber in one gulp, leaning back in the rocking chair while chewing.
She rubbed her fingers on her body, then took down some unfinished sweaters from the table next to her and started knitting while shaking her body.
This scene made Xu Le even more shocked.
This should be the research laboratory of Red Moon Technology, right? Although there is a risk of being banned, at least for now, it is all funded by the school.
As the head of the studio and a project doctor, Yi Xiaoya is actually knitting a sweater here
Well, more than just knitting.
She also drank, smoked, ate without washing her hands, and was even suspected of not brushing her teeth.
People like this...are they really scientific researchers
If so, Xu Le felt that he needed to redefine scientific researchers.
"Miss Yi doesn't have to go to work?"
"Work? Young man, how can my broken body endure such harsh things? You really don't know how to respect the elderly and love the young."
Xu Le: ?
You just said you were 18 years old, and now you turn around and say you are old
Xu Le didn't know how to talk to her, but he saw Yi Xiaoya suddenly stood up as if she had thought of something.
He walked to the side, pushed open the door, took out a badge from somewhere and threw it to Xu Le.
"Okay, Xu Le, right? From today on, you are a member of our Rose Studio."
Xu Le picked up the badge, but found that it was still hot.
He immediately transformed into the elemental thunder form and let the badge fall to the ground, making a sizzling sound as it burned on the floor.
This temperature!
The badge is made of iron, which means that this thing might have been made for him by Yi Xiaoya just now
Melting in a few seconds
After Xu Le picked up the badge, he looked in the direction where Yi Xiaoya was before.
But the neurotic old woman has disappeared.
Xu Le thought she had gone out, so he walked to the wall, but when he got here, he found another problem.
There is no door here!
Xu Le: …
He was absolutely sure that Yi Xiaoya opened the door and went out from here to get the badge for him.
But now, the door is gone!
This place seemed ordinary when he came here, but now he felt like there was something wrong.
It's not just the people who have problems, there seems to be something wrong with the place as well.
Xu Le opened the Ancient Sound Multi-Vision and took a closer look at the wall in front of him. There was indeed no door, and there was no distortion...
"There is no distortion, nor any fluctuations in Ancient Sound or Red Moon energy. So what happened just now? Did I see it wrong?"
Xu Le walked out from the other door with doubts.
When he came out, he felt something was wrong again!
Why is there only this one door in this room
The door was behind him, and Yi Xiaoya did not walk behind him when she left.
"Fuck, this place is... just outrageous."
Xu Le originally thought that he was a level 2 warlock and also a forbidden warlock - the fate master.
After coming here, even if I don't talk about dominating the world or something, it shouldn't be a problem to become a hidden boss, right
But when I came here, I found that there seemed to be a hidden boss here.
After leaving the room, Xu Le came to the place where Levis had been before.
Compared to Yi Xiaoya, the neurotic old lady, the young man Levis looks relatively normal.
Xu Le came to the other side of the room and found that Levis had closed the door tightly.
Although he was unfamiliar with the place, Xu Le still knocked on the door for the sake of his work and future.
Knock knock knock.
Soon, Levis's impatient voice was heard from inside.
"What are you doing? Can you please not disturb my work?"
“Um, I’m sorry to disturb your work, but I’m also a member of the studio now.
I am a Bachelor of Alchemical Biological Sciences who just returned from Beacon University. If your work is busy, I think I might be able to help.
The work efficiency of two people should be better than that of one person. "
After Xu Lexiao's emotional and logical persuasion, Levis finally opened the door.
He looked at Xu Le with a little suspicion:
"Are you a bachelor's student from Beacon University? Did you just come back from studying abroad?"
"Yes, it's genuine." Xu Le said, and took out his degree book.
"A bachelor's degree student from Beacon University will come to work as an assistant here?"
Xu Le knew that his bachelor's degree was not very good, so he smiled:
"As you know, the current scientific research positions are in a state of internal competition. I came here with a dream, so the environment is not that important to me."
When Levis heard Xu Le say that he came here with a dream, his eyes flickered slightly.
He smiled slightly disdainfully:
“Dreams are ridiculous if our studio doesn’t produce research results that meet the standards by the end of the year.
The studio is going to be closed down. If you don’t want to work as a practitioner, you will have to work as an inspector. What’s the point of dreaming?”
Xu Le could see that Levis was not in very good condition.
His heart energy was slightly high, and when he was talking to himself, it fluctuated greatly.
Dissatisfied with the work environment
Or is it because of Yi Xiaoya
"Do you work alone? Doctor Yi Xiaoya... don't you work on weekdays?"
Xu Le had just changed Yi Xiaoya's address to Doctor when Yi Xiaoya's "hehehe" laughter appeared behind Xu Le.
"Hehehe, young man, you were calling me Miss Yi just now, why are you changing your words now
I really don't like the title of Doctor, remember that?"
Damn! This feeling of having your hair standing on end is really unpleasant.
“I remember.”
After Xu Le nodded, Yi Xiaoya let out another series of laughter that sounded like the whispers of hell, pushed the door open and left.
wrong!
Where she pushed the door
Xu Le looked to the right, and there was... a window!
There is something wrong with this old woman, a big problem with her. This person can open the door through the window!
Isn't Levis surprised
"Um, Levis? Has your great-great-great-grandmother always been like this?"
Originally, Xu Le thought that the relationship between Levis and Yi Xiaoya would be the kind of story about a disobedient old man and a stubborn rebellious child.
But when mentioning Yi Xiaoya, a hint of tenderness appeared in Levis' eyes.
"My grandmother was a very good and gentle person. She did like to play a little on weekdays, but she was a really good person."
Very nice? A very gentle person
Xu Le thought for a while, could a gentle person also make that kind of "hehehe" laughter
Xu Le hesitated for a moment, and finally asked:
"Are you serious?"
Just as he finished speaking, Yi Xiaoya appeared again from somewhere.
"Mr. Xu Le, it is not gentlemanly to talk about a beautiful lady behind her back."
Beautiful lady? Okay.
"I'm sorry, Miss Yi Xiaoya, I'm just a little curious. If you don't do research on weekdays, who will carry out the research projects in the studio?"
"I've already said that I'm old, and I don't understand the things you young people are arguing about.
As for the studio's research projects, isn't there Levi's?"
Xu Le turned his head to look at Levis and saw Levis nodded at him.
"So, all the scientific research projects in the entire studio are completed by Mr. Levis?"
"Yes, all the scientific research projects were completed by Little Weiss. He might have done it, hehehe!"
After a strange laugh, Yi Xiaoya left again.
However, Levis explained to Xu Le at this time:
“In fact, there is only one scientific research project in the entire studio now, and all others have been cut.
As you can see, my grandmother still has a bit of a strange temper, so most of the time she won't keep anyone who comes here.
Normal people don’t want to come here either.
You can come here and stay here, I think your grandmother likes you very much."
Grandma likes you very much? You are so ridiculous, young man!
The liking you are talking about should be the kind of liking for small animals, right
"Okay, it seems that this place is indeed different from other studios. Am I in the right place now?"
"Well, sort of. You have a bachelor's degree, which is actually much better than me. I'm just an ordinary graduate from a technology university."
Xu Le had already seen that Levis in front of him was a good person and not as difficult to get along with as he had initially appeared to be.
But he was very impatient, perhaps because the day was approaching.
According to him, if there are no research results before the end of the year, the studio will be closed down.
Although Levis' current identity is an assistant, his actual position is that of a real studio leader.
All the research funds provided by the school are his, which is a very important resource.
This must be the reason for his urgency.
"Levi, you don't have to underestimate yourself. The fact that you can support a studio by yourself is a sign of your ability."
Levis scratched his head, a little embarrassed:
"Well, let's do this, you should first familiarize yourself with the working environment here, and then try to start on your own.
It’s not that I don’t want to lead you to do things, it’s mainly because I’ve never led anyone before.”
Hearing Levis' words, Xu Le smiled again:
“It’s okay, I can just look around and get to know the working environment and project situation.
Oh, can I go out for a while?"
"What's wrong?"
“My cat is still outside.”
"sure."
After Levis nodded in agreement, Xu Le walked out the door.
Looking at Ding Ke sitting on the suitcase, Xu Le tilted his head and looked towards the Rose Studio.
“Although there are many places here that seem very strange, I think this should be the right place for us.
Well, Ding Ke, we have a new home. "
Meow meow meow! ~
Ding Ke also looked very happy, and even stood up and hugged Xu Le's hand.
Xu Le dragged his suitcase and walked into the studio.
…
On the other side, Li Qingcheng, who had already got off work, made an appointment with her best friend to have dinner at a nice small restaurant.
At this time, she was still wearing a law enforcement uniform. She looked at her watch and found that she was 10 minutes over time.
"Wang Man, is he late again?"
But soon, a woman carrying a small leather bag and wearing a loose dance costume ran in.
It’s Wang Man.
From the beads of sweat on her forehead and nose, it can be seen that she is really running, and very fast.
After sitting down, Wang Man picked up the kettle on the table and poured himself a glass of water.
Tons, tons, tons! ~
After finishing the water, Wang Man breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her best friend who she had grown up with, wondering:
"Aren't you very busy after becoming a law enforcer? How come you have time to treat me to a meal today?"
After Wang Man finished speaking, he quickly ordered a few expensive dishes.
Although it is very expensive, Li Qingcheng doesn't seem to care much. Normally, the salary of a law enforcer would never reach this level.
But her situation is different.
Li Qingcheng stared at Wang Man and suddenly said:
"Wang Man, I have something to tell you."
"What's going on? You're so mysterious."
"Xule is back."
