i'm not a detective

Chapter 35 Poor Stray Dog

As a female high school student, Qingjian Liuli often hears certain rumors. It is said that unscrupulous girls like to accuse the middle-aged bald man of being a bus-pervert, because this kind of person is the best blackmailer, and they don't dare to get into trouble at all. Aggrieved and lost money in private, even if they didn't do anything.

The reason is probably that this kind of person has family members to bear, but also owes decades of mortgages, and he dare not take any risk of losing his job. This shows that the debt is terrible.

Now that Qingjian Liuli understood this point deeply, for a mere [-] yen, she got deeper and deeper, and had no choice but to enter Qiyuan Wu's house aggrieved, and immediately changed to a housekeeper.

Well, a housewife who is full of resentment, just looking at her facial expressions, can definitely name her as the heroine in "Ghost Killer Housewife", with ratings of at least breaking 20.

"Put the umbrella away, and then polish my leather shoes." Qi Yuanwu entered the house, kicked off his shoes, and lay down in the living room, directing the little maid, no, it's the little assistant who does the work, "the tools are in the drawer under the shoe kitchen inside."

Qing Jian Liuli stood expressionlessly in the entrance for a moment, threw away the umbrella, opened the drawer angrily, found a box, took out a velvet brush, velvet cloth, shoe polish, etc., wrinkled her nose and picked up Takeshi Qiyuan's stinky shoes. Open the brush.

"Wipe off the rainwater first." Qiyuan Wu Luohan lay down, touched a book, and directed while reading.

"I know, I'm not a fool, I don't need you to teach me how to shine shoes!" Seeing Liuli's dark face, Qing replied loudly, holding a flannel cloth and rubbing it indiscriminately.

"There is a lighter in the box. After applying the shoe polish, burn it with fire. What are you in such a hurry to do? Do what you do and love what you do. Now you are my assistant. You have to do all the things I don't want to do. You have to have some professional ethics." Seven Yuan Wu didn't mind Qingjian Liuli's bad attitude at all, instead he patiently taught her what to do, after all, it would save him trouble in the future.

Well, he is a good boss who cares about the growth of his employees, anyway, he thinks so.

Seeing Liuli startled for a moment, Qing took out the lighter from the box, couldn't help it, and asked curiously, "Why do you want to use fire?"

"Remove the moisture, melt the shoe polish, and use heat radiation to open the pores of the leather and deeply moisturize the leather. In this way, the polished shoes will be brighter, softer, more comfortable to wear, and more thoroughly maintained—— The pair of shoes are 'heirlooms', with fetal leather handmade piano soles, I plan to wear them for 20 years, take good care of them!"

Can it still be so?
Qingjian Liuli thought for a while, and felt that it made sense. She tried it carefully, and found that this shoe polish was thick enough and had a gelatinous texture. When she lightly flicked the lighter, a layer of bluish-purple color appeared on the surface of the shoe toe. The flames frightened her, and she hesitated whether to put out the fire with a fine flannelette.

"It's now! The Tibetan fox strikes, wipe it hard!" Qiyuan Wu ordered decisively.

Seeing that Liuli moved upon hearing the sound, Qing rallied and put out the fire with a flannelette cover. Her small hand moved at high speed, wiping out an afterimage.After stopping for a while, I was surprised to find that the upper of the shoe seemed to be softer, and it was also very shiny. Anyway, it was brighter than the shoes her mother usually polished, and the leather was smoother, making it more comfortable for the eyes.

It turned out to be really effective!

"You are so smart, once you teach it." Takeshi Qiyuan was also very satisfied. He couldn't bear to wear dirty shoes, but the smell of shoe polish was so bad that his nose couldn't bear it after crossing. Simply send it to the store for maintenance, it will be much more convenient to have this Tibetan fox in the future.

Qing Jian Liuli curled her lips with her back turned to him.

Tsk, you're getting pissed at me again, this nasty ghost...

But she became more vigorous in polishing, burning and polishing, and quickly finished polishing Qiyuan Takeshi's two big shoes. The luster was soft and the leather was delicate, like a work of art, the more pleasing to the eye.

As expected, it is me, as long as I am serious, I can do everything well, even shoe shines are excellent!

Heh heh, it's amazing!

It may be the first time in her life that she shines leather shoes so seriously, she suddenly became interested, took off her small round-toed leather shoes, turned her back to Takeshi Qihara, knelt at the entrance and began to polish hers again——GET has acquired a new skill , Need to strengthen practice, and the leather shoes can also be ignited, which is a bit fun.

Takeshi Qiyuan took a look at her bubble socks—loose socks, a kind of thicker socks that are slightly longer and thicker than ordinary socks, and are derived from boot socks that protect the calves during mountain climbing.

Because of its better thermal performance, 80s was very popular in the Northeast of Japan, and was later adopted by the Hokkaido government as one of the special accessories for women's hand-held swimsuits, and then became popular all over the country.

This kind of socks is also very popular among female high school students. Because Japanese girls wear skirts all year round, they tend to accumulate fat on their legs. In addition, they are generally short in height. Wearing this kind of socks piled on the ankles will make their legs appear It is relatively thin, which can offset the adverse effects of radish legs in disguise, and can add a lot of overall points.

It's just that Qingjian Liuli's legs are straight and slender, not carrot legs. There are no such problems. Wearing this kind of socks indoors seems a bit procrastinated. Just look at it and forget it, and let her change into cotton knee socks after preparation, and slowly transform her, not to mention she polishes her little leather shoes, lying on her side with a book and continuing to read.

Seven or eight minutes later, Qingjian Liuli polished her small round-toed leather shoes to shine, put them on and sat in the porch with her feet up, looked at them twice, hummed twice, very satisfied, then turned to ask Qiyuanwu Said: "Okay, the shoes have been polished for you, can I go back?"

It’s not a loss, I helped him shine his shoes, but I also got new skills, and I also used his shoe polish and tools, basically even, no, I should have earned a little.

"No, go get the vacuum cleaner and dust the house." Qiyuan Wu turned the pages of the book, read very intently, and casually assigned her a new job.

Is this the end?

Qing saw that Liuli was very dissatisfied, but she had time to look at Qiyuan Wu's living room, and was shocked at first glance, Qiyuan Wu's living room was ridiculously simple, except for the tatami, there was only a small square table and a few cushions.

In an instant, the resentment in her stomach disappeared a lot, and she finally remembered the fact that Takeshi Qiyuan was an "orphan". Living alone was far less relaxed than he seemed on the surface. No wonder he became a money lover .

With a soft heart, she didn't yell at Qiyuan Wu, but protested: "It's clean now, why do you need to clean it? You don't want to torment me on purpose, do you?" The living room is simple and simple, but it is really clean. There was no dust in the corners, and it didn't look like a place where boys lived. She didn't feel the need to clean it at all.

"I see dust in front of my eyes, if I ask you to clean it up, I'm the BOSS and I have the final say, don't talk nonsense." Wu Qiyuan didn't lift his eyelids, and kept his eyes on the pages of the book, just rubbing his fingers at her, signaling " You still owe money, hurry up and save BB."

Seeing that Liuli could do nothing, Qing scolded him a few words, took the vacuum cleaner in the direction he pointed, connected it to the power supply, and started pushing it in the house. After pushing it in the living room, she was ordered to clean the stairs and the corridor on the second floor. Like a little bee.

Qiyuan Wu lay there without moving, just reading his book, and when she came down from the stairs after finally finishing her work, she immediately said, "Wash your hands, wash them, and then go cook."

Seeing that Liuli couldn't bear it any longer, she said in disbelief when she heard this: "What? I promised to be your assistant, but I only have an hourly salary of [-] yen, and I still have to cook for you?"

This guy is such a jerk, maybe he should raise money, pay it back, and break up with him!

"It's the last job. You can leave work after cooking." Teacher T, no, domestication also needs a process. This is the first day. Don't let her get angry. You have to go step by step. Qi Yuanwu is not too demanding .

Well, if you just clean it every day and cook a meal, you can get rid of the debt, and it's not impossible.

Qing Jian Liuli hesitated for a moment, and then confirmed: "Is there only cooking left?" If she had to clean the bathtub after cooking, she might change from being a detective to a murderer and directly bury Qiyuan Wu in the backyard.

"Correct."

"Then... I'll count as two hours of work today, no, three hours." Qing Jian Liuli took the opportunity to talk about the conditions, and only after she started working did she realize that the hourly salary of [-] yen is really a scam. more angry.

Qi Yuanwu didn't care about this little money with her, and waved his hand very boldly: "Four hours for you!"

It's almost there!
Seeing Liuli snorted, she became happy again, went to the bathroom to wash her hands, then walked to the kitchen, and asked, "Do you use a rice cooker or a pot? Are all the kitchen utensils complete? Where is the apron?"

In fact, if Takeshi Qiyuan begged her well, she really wouldn't mind coming over to cook him a warm meal every day. After all, this guy's background is quite pitiful, and he can do anything to help stray dogs.

"Use a pot and have all the kitchen utensils."

"It's good to have it." Qingjian Liuli was about to show off her cooking skills, show off her skills, and cook a delicious meal for Qi Yuanwu, a "stray dog", but when she pushed open the kitchen door, she was startled—the bedroom I didn't see him in the study room, but Qiyuanwu didn't have a lot of furniture upstairs and downstairs. He looked like a super poor man, but he didn't expect the luxurious kitchen to be scary.

Two super large vertical fresh-keeping refrigerators, a set of transparent moisturizing and constant temperature sterilization cabinets, and a large horizontal silent freezer are placed in the corner of the kitchen. In the middle is a shiny combined kitchen stove. There are countless pots and pans, cups and pots, and there is even a huge double oven.

Are you sick and spending all your money on the kitchen?

Qing Jian Liuli was really shocked, and for a moment wondered whether a person like himself, who had only learned how to cook miso soup, knead rice balls, make sandwiches, and deep-fried tofu in home economics class, was worthy of standing here.

"What are you doing in a daze, the rice is in the cabinet, hurry up and work." Qi Yuanwu didn't wait this time, and followed in.He is the emperor's tongue now, and he has high requirements for eating, so he can't let her do things like this, he has to teach him more carefully.

"Uh, okay..."

Seeing that Liuli came back to her senses, Qing quickly put on her apron, took out the pot, and opened the cupboard to get rice, but the cupboard was opened, and inside was a row of large and small rice bags, she was dazed for a while, not knowing what kind of rice to use.

Takeshi Qiyuan stood behind her and pointed, "The two bags on the left are japonica rice, take a measuring cup, take a cup and a half from the first bag, and take a quarter cup from the second bag. The third bag is bright rice, also take a quarter One cup, the fourth bag contains wine and rice, take a tenth of a cup..."

Seeing Liuli interrupting him, Qing Qing asked in puzzlement, "Why bother?"

"Because the rice cooked in this way is delicious."

"It's all rice, what's the difference, my mother only uses one kind of rice."

"Then does your mother cook delicious food?"

Qing Jian Liuli shut up, and put the rice into the pot according to Wu Qiyuan's request, and then went to fetch tap water, but was immediately stopped by Wu Qiyuan, "Don't use tap water, there is mountain spring water in the refrigerator."

"It's just a meal, you really have a lot of things to do..." Qingjian Liuli muttered, opened the refrigerator to get water, added an appropriate amount according to Qi Yuanwu's request, and sat on the stove without any hassle.

"I haven't washed the rice yet." Takeshi Qiyuan issued another instruction, "Add a little sesame oil, the kind in the No. Like giving rice a massage."

"what?"

"Do as I say, and remember, this will be one of your main jobs in the future."

"Cut~" Qingjian Liuli curled her lips, added some sesame oil, and then began to "massage" the rice. I'm sure, Qiyuanwu is definitely a little seriously ill!
Qiyuan Wu was still not satisfied, and urged him sternly from behind: "Be serious, add some emotion into it, the ingredients are like a mirror, it will treat you as you treat it, and you must be devout."

"That's alright!" Seeing that Liuli was too lazy to quarrel with the mentally ill, she started rubbing vigorously—to add affection?I will add resentment to it, and poison you to death!
"Hey, a child can't be taught, let's change it to fire!" Domestication is not a one-day achievement, and Qiyuan Wu didn't force her to become a qualified coolie in one day, so today she can only feel wronged.

"Be careful of choking to death later!" Qingjian Liuli cursed persistently, turned on the fire and sat in the pot, then wiped her little hands on her apron and looked at the refrigerator, asking, "Do you have miso and tofu? I'll make you miso tofu soup Bar."

Curse him, curse him, but he is still a poor ghost at heart, and she doesn't mind working hard to cook him a side dish.

"No need, your work for today is over." Takeshi Qiyuan took an egg timer and adjusted it, put it next to the pot, and set the time for the rice.

Seeing that Liuli was taken aback, Qing stopped wiping her hands and said in disbelief, "There's nothing else, you...you only eat rice?"

In an instant, all her impatience and resentment disappeared, and a deep sense of pity arose in her heart.

Yes, he lives alone, relying on bursaries and scholarships. Even if he can cheat some money occasionally, there are always some unavoidable expenses in life and study. I am afraid that he mainly eats bibimbap with soy sauce?
No wonder he asked so much to cook a meal, it turned out that this was almost all he had for dinner.

I shouldn't have cursed him just now, I feel a little regretful...

Seeing that Liuli's heart softened, she felt a little guilty that she had just cursed Qiyuan Wuhui to choke to death, and wanted to go home and steal some meat from the refrigerator, but she didn't know how to say it, a little afraid of hurting his self-esteem.

She was hesitating, when suddenly a burst of hot air with a strong aroma came to her face, Qiyuan Wu opened the sealed oven, and said with a smile: "How is it possible, I made Burgundy beef stew and baked it for three hours , now the time is just right, you can eat it right away."

As he spoke, he took out a saucepan from the oven with oven mitts on. It was full of chunks of beef with thick gravy, which looked delicious as hell.

Qing saw that Liuli's face was numb.
