I! Cleaner! - Chapter 60 Under the peaceful daily routine
“Brother~”
Not long after the baby-faced girl left the ward, Anna walked in carrying a small cloth bag and asked curiously:
“What were you talking about just now? Miss Amy seems to be in a good mood, and the circles under her eyes are not so swollen.”
“Haha, of course we talked about something good!”
After solving the problem of his younger siblings going to school, Leon was in a good mood and announced the good news with a smile:
“I didn’t ask for compensation from Char Company just now. Instead, I asked her to help me solve the problem of Melanie and William going to school.”
“Really!”
When she heard that her younger brother and sister’s schools were settled, Anna’s eyes couldn’t help but be filled with surprise.
She quickly walked to the bed and sat down sideways. She took out her lunch box from her pocket and asked happily:
“Which public school is it? Is it the one built on Blackstone Lane? Or the one just outside the city from the alchemy factory?”
“neither.”
After smiling and shaking his head, Leon did not show off, but gave a direct answer.
“It’s Shipbridge Public School, the one at the intersection of Shipbridge Street and Theater Street!”
Shipbridge School? !
After hearing the name of this school, Anna couldn’t help but be overjoyed, and a blush of excitement floated on her fair cheeks.
“Isn’t that the best school in our old city? If William and the others can go to school there, as long as their grades are good, they can go directly to the school and even go to university! Oops! This is really…”
“Don’t get excited, hey! Stay calm!”
Seeing the lunch box in his sister’s hand tilted, a lot of soup seeped out from the gap in the lid. Leon was startled and quickly reached out to hold it. Although he successfully protected his lunch, he tore his broken ribs again. , and suddenly his face turned pale with pain.
“elder brother!”
The startled Anna quickly stood up, supported Leon, who was breathing heavily in air conditioning, and leaned back on the pillow at the head of the bed. After waiting for a while to confirm that he was okay, she finally let go of her worries and said with a worried look:
“Brother! You’d better stop moving now and I’ll feed you the food.”
Leon, who was grinning in pain, could only nod his head, then slightly raised his chin stuck on the neck brace, and took a sip of the fish soup that was brought to his mouth.
“hiss……”
Did you get burned?
Hearing Leon’s breathing, Anna couldn’t help but blinked in surprise, scooped up another spoonful of milky white fish soup, and took a sip herself.
“It’s not hot either?”
“It’s not that it’s hot, it’s that it’s fresh.”
Looking at his sister who still looked worried, Leon did not say that he was inhaling in pain, but smiled and joked:
“Anna~ This hospital seems to be a good place. After you stayed here for a few days, not only did you cure your disease, but your cooking skills are even better than before~”
“My cooking skills haven’t changed. The main reason is that our family now has money and can afford to buy live fish and spices.”
After taking out a handkerchief from her pocket and wiping away a little fish soup from the corner of Leon’s mouth, Anna forked a small piece of fish and handed it to Leon’s mouth, and said happily:
“Brother, someone knocked on our door this morning and said he was your colleague and sent you this week’s salary. There are nine golden wheels!”
Nine golden wheels…
After hearing Anna’s words, Leon couldn’t help but do some mental calculations.
My basic weekly salary is 12 gold wheels. Counting the 2 gold wheels from Toad’s field mission, the total should be 14 gold wheels. After deducting the drinking bill, there are still 9 gold wheels…the six that the director ordered. A bottle of wine actually costs 5 gold wheels?
After being shocked by the price of the wine, Leon quickly swallowed the fish in his mouth, opened the badge panel and looked at the progress of [Wine Country Martyrs].
117/1000
One hundred and seventeen bottles… If these wines were all at this price… Didn’t he drink almost a hundred gold wheels on the day he was sent home by the director when he was drunk? ! ! !
…
[Dear Miss Olivia, after your consumption in our store ten days ago, the wine bill totaling 327 gold wheels has not yet been paid. I hope you can settle it as soon as possible after receiving this notice. , our store is looking forward to your visit again]
“…”
After reading the reminder letter placed on his desk, the silent red-haired director picked up the wine bottle, tilted his head and took a sip of tea inside, then put the whiskey bottle back on the table and looked at the contents and whiskey. The liquid of the same color was silently lost in thought.
Why did I go crazy in the first place and why did I treat him to drink so much?
Thinking of a certain drinking buddy who was clearly drunk and half-eyed, feeling like he might dive under the table at any time, but who couldn’t get down no matter how hard he drank, the red-haired director couldn’t help but rub his swollen temples and vaguely recalled that night. some fragments of.
Director, these are all wines you ordered. Do we want some more meals?
I’ll try other ones too, but just drink one cup to taste it.
ah? Is that all? Don’t you have a good drinking capacity?
Can’t you afford it? How about I pay some too?
“…”
Have I been fooled?
Relying on his extraordinary memory, after remembering how his wallet was emptied step by step, the red-haired director couldn’t help but smacked his lips in annoyance. The more he thought about it, the more he felt like Kaizi had taken the bait.
Someone said he didn’t know how to drink, so he just took one sip, and ended up drinking more than he did! What’s even more outrageous is that when he ran out of wine, he lay down directly on the ground and began to sleep soundly. I had to be responsible for sending him home!
Touching his wallet that had just been paid and was deflated again, the red-haired director clenched his fists and gritted his teeth as he made up his mind.
I, Olivia, will never drink with Leon again, even if I am poor! I am greedy! I can only pour tea into the bottle to deceive myself!
Never!
After rolling up the bill into a ball and throwing it into the trash can beside the table, the red-haired director pulled a pile of newspapers on the table with a sullen face and read the news that happened this week.
The Sun: “Shocked, a citizen passed by Charles Department Store a few days ago and suddenly got a windfall! 》
“Puff!”
Looking at the gray-white photo on the front page of the newspaper, where Leon was pressed down by countless golden wheels with only two arms exposed, the red-haired director couldn’t help but laugh. After glancing at it, he cut out the report and put it into Leon’s file with a smile.
There is just one missing picture in the report of the Holy Spirit of the Scale Gold Church. I’ll just use this one when I report it~ Haha, you’ll cheat me out of my wine money!
Oh and, it’s been four days. Given Lyon’s current situation, he should be able to return to work today, right?
After quickly reading the entire Sun and not seeing anything suspicious, the red-haired director, who was in a much better mood, continued to flip through other newspapers.
Daily News: “The editor-in-chief of my newspaper was attacked by a rioter a few days ago. The other party claimed that the nobles were just lice in the crotch!”
Financial Times: “Affected by the big promotion of Char’s Department Store, the revenue of Rose Department Store has dropped sharply, and it is suspected that it will go bankrupt and be sold!”
Dance Entertainment News: “The chief of the troupe was boycotted due to a scandal. There is no replacement candidate for the time being. Master Wilde’s performance may be hindered! 》
Well… Although a lot of things have happened, it seems that they have nothing to do with “abnormality”. The capital looks very peaceful recently!
After nodding with satisfaction, the red-haired director was about to put away the newspapers, but he caught a glimpse of an inconspicuous piece of news in the corner.
New Industrial News: “Aimi Wine Industry’s new couple wine is on the market, couples can get a 50% discount after purchasing and drinking it on the spot”
“Hiss…”
