"Boss, did you pick up any money today?" Liu An asked.
"No, why do you ask?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked while chewing a bone.
"Because our meal today...isn't it a little too rich?" Liu An asked.
"How can it be rich? Do I have to have strength to eat meat?" Yuan Yuanyuan showed off her muscle strength.
Yuan Yuanyuan was afraid that she would not have enough strength and would not be able to defeat others. She was even more afraid that she would become cowardly, so she specially prepared a table full of meat, which could both boost her morale and replenish her strength.
She thought that the patriarch who came this time should be of the same level as the patriarch of the Li family whom she met last time, but she waited for a whole day and the man didn't move at all.
The next afternoon, the sun was shining brightly. When Yuan Yuanyuan was sitting alone in the yard thinking about life, the woman in white replied with a very apologetic tone, "I'm so sorry... It seems that the head of the Lan family is a little slow in doing things."
…
"Go!" Yuan Yuanyuan threw the mirror out with an excited look on her face, like a suddenly excited patient. After watching it being run over by a car, she silently picked it up again.
… what a psycho.
Anyway, Yuan Yuanyuan was so excited that she didn't know what kind of person this head of the family was. She was not able to see him for a whole day. She only knew that his surname was Lan and he had a very slow temper. Apart from that, she didn't know anything else.
She later sat in the room thinking about it all night, and felt from the bottom of her heart that this man was terrible - he was good at attacking her heart, and he did nothing, but made her feel troubled for more than a day, and she didn't sleep well last night.
Although this actually had nothing to do with the other person, it was simply Yuan Yuanyuan's pettiness... But Yuan Yuanyuan still quite conveniently threw all the blame on the man named Lan, and then cooked another pot of pork ribs for herself.
After eating spare ribs for two days, Yuan Yuanyuan locked the store door and went home alone.
… No need to wait any longer, just do whatever you want. Even if you really want to come and chop her up, let her wait until next week.
"When you see someone coming, do you know how to hide?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked Liu An before leaving.
"I know!" Liu An said.
"That's all." Yuan Yuanyuan went home with her bag on her back. She closed the door as soon as she entered the house, then lay on the bed and began to daydream.
"I want to go home in a few days. My injury is almost healed, and it seems that no one wants to bother me recently." Fat Cat said as he sat down on Yuan Yuanyuan's pillow.
"Don't... just come into my bedroom casually." Yuan Yuanyuan said.
"I'll transfer my accommodation fee to you after I get home." Fat Cat said, "And then I'll give you a few books so you can read them for fun."
"That's great." Yuan Yuanyuan straightened her neck instantly and said.
Her love for learning really shocked Fat Cat. At least after Fat Cat came here, he once said that Yuan Yuanyuan was one of the most studious monsters he had ever seen.
Yuan Yuanyuan thinks this is because monsters generally don’t need to study and can determine their status through their talents… Monsters’ social status is naturally more solid than that of humans, so not many monsters are willing to struggle for something thankless, since it’s useless anyway.
For example, the monsters formed by dung beetles... Even if they practice desperately, to what extent can they practice
… The ultimate little shit pill
Although in recent years monsters have begun to learn from humans and try to send little monsters to school, they all seem to be hiding in human schools.
There is no fixed school run by monsters themselves, and there is no compulsory education. So far, only a small number of these monsters can go to human schools.
Of course, this doesn’t mean that monsters who can’t go to school are bad. They may have several tutors at home, just like Tsunayoshi, or simply pass down the tradition from their parents... Yuan Yuanyuan didn’t know what to say. After all, in her mind, monsters seemed to be born like this, and she never felt that there was anything wrong with it.
…But when I really sorted it out bit by bit, I felt that some things here seemed really not right.
Yuan Yuanyuan felt that she was thinking too much. This seemed to be the task of a sociologist. As an engineering student, she would not get involved. However, she felt that if there really was a half-demon who was a sociologist, it would be quite interesting for him to study the differences between the monster and human worlds and write a paper using professional terminology.
"Do you have anything to do the day after tomorrow?" Fat Cat said, "If you don't, take me to the station."
"Will you never come back after you leave this time?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked.
"No, I'll be back soon after I pack up." Fat Cat said, "It's fun here, I have to find Fanning."
Yuan Yuanyuan was lying on the bed, smiling kindly, "I just knew it..."
"What do you know?"
"I know that you will die on the street one day." Yuan Yuanyuan sat up cross-legged and picked up her cell phone.
Seeing this, the fat cat on the other side used its little paws to pull at her clothes, just like the movements of an ordinary kitten when it acts coquettishly and wants something. Yuan Yuanyuan rolled her eyes, took his phone down from above and threw it to him.
The fat cat took it instantly, pressed it under his butt, and scratched at the phone with his little paws.
The two of them are now trained like Pavlov's dogs. When the time comes, they will automatically pick up their phones and start playing. The person who trained them is Ji Qiu. Today is Saturday, and it is the day to update again. In fact, not only the two of them, but there are a lot of people who have been trained like them.
"Who do you think is the cover character this time?" Fat Cat asked while waiting for the update.
"Faning?" Yuan Yuanyuan said.
"It can't be him..." said Fat Cat, "It should be someone else."
"The other person? Who?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked.
"In the following Monster Records, Faning will be the cover character less and less." Fat Cat flicked his tail, "The real protagonist of Monster Records is not Faning at all, he is just used as a carrier... So Ji Qiu will definitely continue to introduce some new characters. A few days ago, he was just testing the bottom line between monsters and humans, but I think he will be serious recently."
"How do you know he is serious?" Yuan Yuanyuan asked.
"Because Yuan is going to be serious, he has already taken action some time ago." Fat Cat said, "Yuan is an important signal for Ji Qiu. If he is going to be serious, it means that Ji Qiu is going to be serious."
“Why… Is Yuan an important signal for Ji Qiu?” Yuan Yuanyuan said with a bit of speechlessness in her tone.
"Because it's obvious to Ji Qiu that he wants to use Yuan as a pawn. I think the two of them even have some connection that outsiders don't know about." Fat Cat said, "Do you want to make a bet?"
"Forget it, forget it." Although Yuan Yuanyuan was a little indignant at what Fei Mao said, she still didn't dare to bet with him.
She refreshed Mengman several times, and when the cover finally appeared, she was suddenly stunned.
Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!
Yuan Yuanyuan almost jumped out of the bed. The fat cat next to her looked at the person on the cover and its cat face wrinkled.
This person!
…
"This person..." Liu An looked at the cover for a long, long time, so long that he felt his eyes were about to sore.
When he finally confirmed who this person was, he sat up suddenly from his chair, and the chair made a "squeaking" sound.
"What's wrong? Can you be serious?" A big monster next to him slammed the table.
Liu An was frightened and nodded apologetically to the big monster in front of him. Then he grabbed the leaf next to him and began to write down the information of the person in front of him and which body he wanted to take away.
This was his daily job... but he had never wanted to quit his job as much as he did now.
This person... This person is actually related to what happened back then!
Liu An had always thought that this person was just a simple gay friend of the protagonist, even though this gay friend had never shown up in the entire film... but he still felt that this person's identity should be quite simple.
But now he realized that this was not the case. This person was most likely from the same era as Yuan.
Because the name of this magazine is - Some Past Events.
At this moment, Liu An suddenly discovered that his boss was a very scary boss, very, very scary, at least scarier than he had imagined.
Because he suddenly remembered that the person in front of him had come to the store during the Chinese New Year and gave the boss something.
This is the person!
A monster from that era actually came to visit his boss during the New Year!
Moreover, Liu An didn't even recognize this person at first, mainly because he was too well-behaved in front of his boss.
Then his boss... is really extraordinary.
…
Yuan Yuanyuan was sweating as he watched. Fat Cat was shaking his cat head beside him. "See, I was right. A new character was drawn. However, this person has only appeared now... He has been hiding deep enough. I think he may have a py deal with Ji Qiu. Yuan is stubborn and doesn't agree to the deal, so he has been used as a target."
Yuan Yuanyuan ignored Feimao's nonsense. She looked at Siqun's face in the comics... To be honest, Siqun and the Li family patriarch's faces were too similar in the three-dimensional world and it was easy to confuse them. It was clearer in the two-dimensional world.
Just like in some comics where someone just changes their hairstyle and tells you that they are a different person, comic readers are quite accustomed to this, and they can forcibly identify someone as a different person just because of their different personality. However, this situation is still rare in Yao Ji, and Yuan Yuanyuan estimates that many readers will notice this situation.
Seriously speaking, Si Qun's face looks sharper in the comics, like a typical iceberg, while the face of the head of the Li family looks softer, with a fox smile and a bit of a sinister feeling.
Yuan Yuanyuan looked at Siqun’s face in the comics, looking left and right. After a long time, she thought to herself - Wow, so handsome.
Damn, you can’t tell this is from the fourth group at all... When has the fourth group ever been so handsome
She flipped through the pages and saw Fanning sitting alone in a chair at the side.
In front of him was a thick stack of books, all filled with his notes in various handwritings, and each book was densely packed with notes.
"Witchcraft and the magic used by humans... have a lot in common." Fanning muttered to himself as he took notes.
"Fanning, what are you doing? Come out quickly."
"Oh! Coming right up!" Fanning quickly closed the notebook and ran outside.
He saw several monsters coming out of the door, each one more violent than the other, so he sighed quietly and hurried over to help them.
The place where he worked, probably because the nature of the work was a bit dark, the slightly more powerful monsters really didn't see the small monsters as monsters... If you get a bad big monster, as long as you can't kill him, you will use him as much as you can.
Monsters really are a group that bullies the weak and fears the strong... Fanning thought, but you have to rely on luck to encounter a big monster with a conscience. If you are unlucky, then there is really no hope.
So once there is a better big monster, the little monsters will keep telling each other... just to make their lives more comfortable.
"Monsters don't bully the weak and fear the strong." A monster friend of Fanning here couldn't help but laugh after hearing what he said, "It's just that they have a strong sense of hierarchy."
"Hierarchy consciousness?" Fanning asked. "Although I have some understanding of it, I still have to say, what kind of a weird term is this..."
"For example, big monsters have their own level, and small monsters have their own level." The man said, "It's difficult for the two to be on the same level."
"Actually..." Fanning suddenly didn't know what to say. He wanted to say that humans also have it... But after thinking about it, it didn't seem a good idea to say that.
But it is true... To be honest, the hierarchy among monsters is much stronger than that of humans, and Fanning never felt that there was anything wrong, because monsters have always been like this in people's minds...
"In the past, when big monsters and small monsters became friends, few of them ended up well." His friend suddenly remembered something, "Do you want to hear a story related to this? I'll tell you."
"Hey? Do you want to tell me a story?" Fanning suddenly became interested. He moved a small stool, picked up his little notebook and came over to listen.
