A Customer

Name: Qiao Ji…

Name: Song Cun…

Name: Kong Qian…

When he arrived at the Brilliant Human Resources Market, it was already 6 in the evening. Xia Xu seized the opportunity and skillfully checked the status of the candidates.

'This time, I have the blessing of the little white flower. You have to give me a talent, right? I don't expect a four or five-star talent. I will be satisfied with a three-star tracking talent.'

Xia Xu was full of confidence at the beginning. He felt like he had been blessed by the Goddess of Luck and was now the protagonist.

However, as the character status screen opened one by one, he realized that this was just an illusion. His face gradually fell.

He found nothing, and it was even more ridiculous than two days ago. He didn't even see anyone with a tracking talent.

Tracking and detection talents were relatively rare, but there were usually one or two out of hundreds of people, but today, there was no one with a one-star investigative talent.

'It seems that I can't rely on metaphysics.'

Xia Xu, who had yet to find anything, helplessly loosened his tie.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, he wanted to go back to the shop and send Tang Youxin home, but after thinking about it, he hailed a taxi and went to Times Square to find some old construction workers.

But this was even more unlikely. The site where the old man from the construction site came from was basically next to the travel agency that was closest to Times Square, but he had no choice if the old man didn't come to work.

Tonight was another fruitless day.

'Huh?'

After returning to the residential area next to the Brilliant Human Resources Market, Xia Xu was about to enter when he suddenly looked back as a group of young men and women passed by.

There was an acquaintance in the group, Tang Hao.

However, Tang Hao probably didn't see him just now, or he pretended not to see him as he didn't want to say hi.

After all, the relationship between the two was not that good. If he really stopped, the two would be quite embarrassed whether to greet each other or not.

If it was someone else in the class, Xia Xu wouldn't have cared, he wouldn't have even noticed it. He would have only paid attention to Tang Hao because he was an unlucky fellow.

This guy was the supporting character of «Hunter». If the plot was carried out, he would definitely be involved. In other words, the place where he appeared was most likely the location of the hunter plot.

He checked the backs of the people with Tang Hao out of habit, but he didn't find any supporting roles in «Hunter». Xia Xu didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed.

Happy was naturally because he didn't trigger the storyline yet. It was better not to trigger a storyline that didn't sound safe. After all, he could make a lot of money from «Person About to Die».

He was disappointed that he couldn't learn the specific storyline of «Hunter». If he knew the storyline in advance, he might have been able to guard against it when the storyline began. But now, he was in a passive situation.

'Forget it, if I'm forced into the hunter's plot, I will always encounter other characters. Although it may be a little late, it shouldn't be too dangerous with the help of foresight…'

After watching Tang Hao and the others leave, Xia Xu looked away and walked into the district where his consulting firm was located.

When he arrived near the shop, the shop was still lit with orange lights. Tang Youxin's shadow was stretched out, extending through the glass door to the cement road at the entrance.

However, apart from Tang Youxin, there seemed to be another broader shadow.

'There is someone else?'

Due to the suspicion in his heart that was aroused due to Tang Hao, Xia Xu's heart skipped a beat.

This residential area was too remote. After seven or eight in the evening, it was as deserted as a ghost city. There were no street lamps along the streets.

On the other hand, Tang Youxin had a face that could invoke trouble…

Without thinking too much, Xia Xu quickly walked to the door of the shop.

Fortunately, nothing bad happened.

There was indeed someone inside, and it was a middle-aged man, but he looked honest. He was sitting on a chair, drinking water from a disposable plastic cup.

Tang Youxin was cleaning up by the side and both of them were relatively safe.

'It seems that I have been bewitched by the hunter plot. This is Summer after all.'

Xia Xu smiled dumbly and pushed open the door.

"Xia Xu, you're finally back…"

Tang Youxin walked over and finally revealed a relief look when her back was facing the middle-aged man.

"What's wrong? This is…"

Xia Xu glanced at her first, then turned his gaze to the middle-aged man sitting on the chair. After seeing him, the man looked a little ill at ease.

"He seems to be a guest asking you for advice, but I don't know what to do, so I can only pour him a glass of water and ask him to wait here for you to come back."

Tang Youxin glanced at the middle-aged man and said, "Fortunately, you came back in time. I'm afraid he won't be able to wait any longer."

"…"

Xia Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

'I'm renting a shop in this shabby place, and I've only just hung up my signboard, but Tang Youxin actually got a customer?'

This was ridiculous!

However, he couldn't tell Tang Youxin that he had never planned to open for business, so he could only come in front of the middle-aged man and say apologetically, "I'm sorry, sir, we haven't officially opened for business yet. Look at how messy this place is. Why don't you come back in a few days?"

"Oh, okay, I'm fine. Actually, I don't really have a problem but I'm in a bad mood and have nowhere to go, so I wanted to find a place to stay for a while. I only came in to take a look after seeing the emotional consultation written on the door. The little girl is quite enthusiastic."

The middle-aged man not only looked honest, but he also had a similar personality. After hearing Xia Xu's words, he quickly stood up and praised Tang Youxin before leaving.

Xia Xu habitually checked his status.

In fact, he had basically developed a habit of looking at strangers. After all, this ability was very useful.

'Wow! So you were waiting here for me.'

Xia Xu's eyebrows jumped. He instinctively glanced at the innocent little white flower next to him.

Was this destiny of fortune to husband really that profound?

Isn't this as good as the plot armor of the main character?

He thought that the increase in luck was useless, but he didn't expect the one he was finding to be waiting here.
