At noon and in the evening, little Crystal had the two most delicious meals of her life, and then... then she was frightened and cried.
Because she saw the price list of Dior hanging on the wall. The cheapest single dish costs 20,000 US dollars, and the customized diet therapy costs 200,000 US dollars per dish. There are also some set meals and the like at the end. She was dizzy from counting all the zeros.
Isn't this really just a money grab
Is there really anyone who would eat such expensive food
But it's really delicious~
Then she burped and started crying because she had just eaten a table full of food and at noon...
Even if she took the cheapest option, it would still cost a lot of money. She had never seen so much money in her life, so how could she possibly afford it
"Why are you crying?" Dio sat on the chair and lit a cigarette for himself like a villain.
"I... I don't have any money..."
"Oh, this is difficult."
Little Shuijing cried even more sadly. She had never shed a tear even when she fell on the road and bruised her knee, but now she just wanted to cry.
"Okay, stop crying. Now I'll give you two solutions, choose one. One is that we can go AA, half of the two meals, and you give me $100,000 and it's done..."
One hundred thousand US dollars!
After hearing the specific number this time, little Shuijing was so scared that she couldn't even cry.
"Second, we'll do what we agreed on before. You'll work for me, with room and board provided, and monthly salary. Today is the first day of your probation period, so forget about the money. Okay, these are the two solutions. Which one do you choose?"
The smoke obscured Dio's face, making it impossible to see his expression or his true thoughts.
Little Shuijing then realized that she had misunderstood.
"But I stayed..."
"Okay, since you've chosen to stay and work, the cleaning work of the restaurant will be handed over to you from now on. Go wash the dishes."
"I... "
"What are you talking about? Hurry up and go!"
Dio didn't waste any more words with her. He brought out his domineering CEO style and shocked little Shuijing at once. She was so scared that she immediately ran to wash the dishes. She didn't dare to say more or ask more questions. She looked weak, helpless and pitiful.
After everyone left, Zeppelin's voice rang out: "Mr. Stark has equipped the restaurant with an automatic dishwasher and a cleaning robot, why don't you use them?"
"In many ways, machines are indeed more convenient and labor-saving than manual labor, but human existence needs to create value. This is the meaning of life. You won't understand even if I tell you this." Dio said while puffing out smoke. His eyes seemed to be looking into the distance, a little dazed, and no one knew what he was thinking of.
Although this is a restaurant, it actually looks more like a hotel. I don’t know why Tony designed it this way, but every inch of space has been fully utilized, even with several lounges.
At night, little Crystal quickly fell asleep in the room assigned to her.
But Dio, who was lying on his bed, suddenly opened his eyes and walked out.
During the day, he was not really in a daze, but was thinking about Crystal's situation and his "wild" conjecture.
First, let’s assume that those catastrophic accidents were all “illusion memories” imagined by Little Crystal’s subconscious mind, and then projected into reality.
So when did this subconscious imagination begin
This may be too much, it can happen anytime and anywhere.
But just now when he was lying in bed, Dio suddenly thought of his dream!
Almost everyone has seen the classic movie Inception. In dreams, there are no rules and regulations in reality, and anything can be done as long as the imagination is sufficient.
Moreover, dreams are the product of subconscious activities. It is often difficult for people to remember the content of their dreams after waking up. Most people can only remember a little, or even nothing at all.
Little Crystal once said during the day that after every disaster, she would have a particularly familiar feeling about what happened and the scene at that time, as if she had seen it once before, but could not remember it at all.
So Dio wondered, is it possible that she had actually experienced or seen it once, not somewhere else, but in her dream!
Because she has seen or experienced it in her dream, but when she wakes up she doesn't remember the content of the dream. Until what happened in her dream happens again in reality in front of her, she feels a sense of familiarity and feels that this scene is familiar.
When Dio came to this conclusion, he was shocked and thought it was too YY.
But at least logically, this inference makes sense.
That's why Dio planned to attack her at night. Ugh... He was taking advantage of this time to observe if there would be any changes in her. If she was dreaming, what would happen if he interrupted her and woke her up
Even if he guessed wrong, it didn't matter. It was better to try than to do nothing.
So after making sure that the other person should be asleep at this time, he immediately opened Xiao Shuijing's door and walked in quietly.
However, everything was calm. Standing at the door, I could see little Shuijing sleeping peacefully and comfortably.
"Am I overthinking it?"
Dio, not believing in evil, covered his eyes with the magnetic waves of life again, trying to find something different.
But the final result still disappointed him. An hour passed and nothing happened.
After standing there stupidly for an hour, Dio finally sighed and left quietly. He guessed that there would be no gain tonight.
I'm not too disappointed. After all, this is just speculation. Also, disasters don't happen every day. As long as I continue to find time to observe, I will always find a breakthrough.
Shortly after he left, a layer of black mist came out of Little Crystal's body again, but this time it did not continue to cover Little Crystal's body. Instead, it looked in the direction where Dio had just stood, and then went back into her body.
From beginning to end, Little Crystal didn't notice anything wrong, nor did she show any signs of waking up.
What was even more rare was that she slept well that night and did not dream at all until dawn.
Although she never remembered having a dream...
When he woke up in the morning, looking at the ignorant little Crystal, Dio didn't say much. After all, even he didn't understand what had happened to her.
After making a simple breakfast and eating it, he picked up his mobile phone, took a look at it, and then went out for something.
Little Shuijing's job today is still the same, cleaning and washing dishes.
