parallel world.

June 25, Saturday, Chengdu.

The sky is as blue as sea water, and the fluffy cirrocumulus clouds are like foam washed up on the shore.

The sun was blazing at twelve o'clock at noon, and the sticky steam filling the air made people feel as if they were taking a bath in slime, making their whole body uncomfortable.

"Slime... I haven't seen them for a long time."

Walking on the slightly empty street, Qin Ren was holding a Ms. Aixi cigarette in his mouth, seeming to think of some lovely old friends and mumbling to himself absentmindedly.

…

Ten minutes later, he slowly blew out a smoke ring and stopped at the foot of a teahouse.

Fengya fragrant tea.

Qin Ren looked up and saw the teahouse's plaque shining in the sunlight.

Feng Ya…

Why not Longya?

Implying that only women are elegant and men are indecent?

Qin Ren trembled all over thinking of this, his hands and feet were cold due to cold sweat all over his body on a hot day, and he instantly felt cooler. He then put out his cigarette and walked in, heading straight to the second floor.

"Near the window...black bag..."

After entering the teahouse, Qin Ren glanced at the anonymous text message on his phone and found the lady in the description at a glance in the corner.

"Hello, is this Bai Jie?"

"Hmm, you must be Qin Ren."

Qin Ren walked over and said hello. Miss Bai Jie stood up and responded with a generous smile, but her chin and apple muscles were a bit hard, and it felt like a knife had been used.

In contrast, Qin Ren's first impression on Bai Jie was almost perfect.

Sword eyebrows and starry eyes, jade trees facing the wind.

Have a good posture and be neatly dressed.

Especially the melancholy eyes, which look vaguely like Keanu Reeves.

Perhaps in this world where little puppies are everywhere, there is no market for "melancholic uncles", but in Bai Jie's opinion, Qin Ren's appearance just hit her mark.

————————————

There was a cup of Longjing ordered in front of the two people's tables. Qin Renre was thirsty, so he picked it up and drank first. On the other hand, Bai Jie had to say a few more polite words:

"I've heard about Mr. Qin for a long time..."

"Cough!...Cough!..."

"?"

Qin Ren choked out as soon as he opened his mouth, which stunned Bai Jie.

"It's okay, it's okay..."

Qin Ren waved his hands repeatedly, not wanting to say clearly that he heard "Mr. 91 Qin", so he took the initiative to take over the conversation:

"So, you are responsible for handling my exorcist retirement procedures?"

"Yep."

Since Qin Ren got straight to the point, Bai Jie stopped being polite and showed her eight professional teeth:

"Let me introduce myself first. I am the new director of the Exorcism Office of the Plane Administration. Mr. Qin. Do you need me to tell you about the retirement precautions for exorcists?"

"No."

Qin Ren waved his hand:

"I've been working night shifts for a month, and I finally have a day off today. I still have to buy cat food, watch a movie, etc. Let's do it quickly."

Exorcists are also human beings. Exorcising demons in private may be a social beast in public.

After all, the contracts of the Plane Management Bureau are all overlord contracts. The monthly symbolic subsidies from the Bureau are not enough to open memberships on major platforms.

Bai Jie started to take out forms, signature pens, voice recorders, etc. from her bag.

While taking it, I couldn't help but feel a little curious:

"That... Mr. Qin?"

"Um?"

"You work so much overtime, what do you usually do?"

"Work..."

Qin Ren narrowed his eyes and took a sip of tea:

"Coder, have you heard of it?"

Bai Jie nodded:

"Yeah, bald."

"996, have you heard of it?"

"Well, it's a blessing."

Bai Jie looked at the top of Qin Ren's head:

"But you don't look like a programmer?"

"Programmers and I are close friends. I graduated in architecture and work in a design institute. I am currently in 907."

907,12 plus 12 minus 9 times...

Bai Jie silently calculated in her mind that she was not sure, so she stopped worrying. She turned on the recorder, cleared her throat, and began to confirm some basic information with Qin Ren:

"Name."

"Qin Ren, Qin Shihuang's Qin, Xing Xing's Ren."

"age."

"twenty three."

"How long have you been an exorcist?"

"From my sophomore year to now... it's been four years. The contract I signed with your bureau is for four years."

Four years is considered a veteran experience in the exorcist industry.

After all, the risks are high, and there are not many exorcists who can still maintain their arms and legs and have good mental health after working for 4 years.

"What's the reason for retirement?"

"It's very simple. It's not a good job in the first place. In addition, I have been working for more than a year after graduation and I am getting busier and busier. I also have a sister who is studying in graduate school to support me at home, so now I just want to concentrate on being a social worker and save up some down payment."

.”

Qin Ren spoke slowly, then took out a cigarette:

"do you mind?"

"Please."

Bai Jie is one of the very few who likes men to smoke, and Qin Ren is also one of the very few who smokes and can keep his teeth white and clean.

Pure white, pure white…

Could it be a good match?

Bai Jie made a homophonic guess and turned the pen on her fingertips:

"What is Mr. Qin's superpower?"

"Superpower? And this one?" Qin Ren frowned.

"Yes, it is not required."

Even after they retire, most exorcists are reluctant to reveal their "unique skills" as housekeepers. This is human nature.

The same was true for Qin Ren, so he chose to skip this question.

"Okay, then..."

Bai Jie pulled up the chair and sat upright:

"Next, I would like to trouble Mr. Qin to recall which demons you have encountered in your exorcism career. The Bureau needs to compile relevant information."

…

[Demon Descendant], that is, [Descendant of the Demon Queen].

The universe is infinite and time and space are vast.

Before the 19th century AD, when the dimensional barriers were still weak, beings on various multidimensional planes had traveled across the world for intentional or unintentional reasons.
