Embers Ad Infinitum

Out of the room, down to the ground floor, Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian ran into Aunt Nan from the "Afu Gun Shop".

"You are quite calm." The graceful lady swept her gaze casually and said with a smile.

"Aren't you?" Jiang Baimian responded with a smile, "What does other people's affairs have to do with us? I'm afraid they will pierce the sky of Ye Cao City."

They had confessed to each other before, and everyone ended the topic with tacit understanding. One of them was going to go upstairs and the other was going out.

At this moment, Jiang Baimian's heart moved and asked:

"Aunt Nan, do you know any'temporary teachers' nearby?"

Aunt Nan looked suspiciously at the two opposite people:

"You are going to invite a'temporary teacher'?"

In terms of appearance and dress, they don't seem to be illiterate.

"We mainly want to understand this business, to see if we can take on this task, the relic hunter, if there is a task to take, I definitely don't want to miss it." Jiang Baimian instinctively made up the reason.

Shang Jian Yao immediately dismantled the platform:

"You explain too much."

Jiang Baimian gave him a sideways glance, which was not too annoying, because Aunt Nan obviously didn't believe her words.

How can a relic hunter who can easily kidnap Eugene back without leaving any clues need to take on the task of "temporary teacher"? It is not a tutor for the children of noble lords.

Who said that just now, who knows the truth?

Aunt Nan knowingly didn't ask what it was for, and said with a smile:

"We have one in this building."

"Where does he live?" Jiang Baimian asked.

Aunt Nan lifted the hair that fell from the temples:

"She, a lady."

Aunt Nan spoke the word "she" in Honghe, otherwise it would be impossible to distinguish.

Aunt Nan continued:

"She doesn't live here. She comes over at 2 o'clock every afternoon for one and a half hours of class.

"Hehe, dozens of girls in this yard joined together to invite.

"A few of the ones you saw last night participated. They paid dividends in the'Afu Gun Shop' and were relatively rich. If you want to see it later, I will let them lead the way."

Jiang Baimian knew that the "girl" referred to by Aunt Nan referred to women who were full-time or part-time in the flesh business.

"Okay, let's go out for lunch first, and look for it in our room almost two o'clock." Jiang Baimian looked at Shang Jianyao's hand touching his stomach, and said gratefully, "Thank you."

She seems to have completely forgotten that she just helped Aunt Nan and the others take revenge last night, as if this was something that was not worth mentioning for a long time.

At 1:50 in the afternoon, the door of Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian's room was knocked.

And they had already sensed someone coming and waited at the door.

"I just wanted to go out and have a look." Jiang Baimian explained to the lady outside with a smile.

This lady was one of the people who killed Eugene last night. She had big eyes and short hair just past her ears. She looked intellectual and young, making it difficult to accurately judge her age.

"There are still ten minutes." The lady said after a greeting, "Gu Changle, you met last night."

"I won't introduce myself, or it would be meaningless to give a false name. You can call me Dabai." Jiang Baimian mocked himself, "Well, he has no name, just use'hey'."

This is her revenge before Shang Jian Yao's teardown.

Gu Changle didn't answer this, turned his body and said:

"On the top floor, where the sun is better."

There is no electricity from 1:30 to 5:30 in the afternoon.

Looking at the floral scarf on Gu Changle's neck that seemed to be a lot more gorgeous than last night, Jiang Baimian took two steps and walked side by side with each other.

She had a "professional habit" and asked curiously:

"Sister Gu, why would you want to pool money to invite a'temporary teacher'?"

Gu Changle's expression slowly became soft, and the corners of his mouth twitched invisibly:

"I accidentally had a child before, and I was reluctant to knock her off, so I gave birth.

"I don't want her to be like me in the future. She always feels that it would be better to be literate and to have more opportunities."

Jiang Baimian echoed:

"Indeed, the situation in Yecao City is relatively stable, and literacy is an advantage.

"The kid has gone to the classroom?"

She doesn't know what the place where the "temporary teacher" lectures, she can only use the most common terms to define it.

"She is only two years old, how to go?" Gu Changle smiled, "I put her at Aunt Nan's."

While climbing the stairs, Jiang Baimian asked thoughtfully:

"Do you want to teach her after you learn it?"

"Yes. I'm still young and popular. I have a choice and my income is stable. Coupled with the gun shop's dividends, I can support the cost of hiring a'temporary teacher'. In a few years, wait until An An grew up and was able to take classes on her own. Who knows what the situation will be and whether it is still in the current state. I just think about it. I will learn more first, and then I can teach her by myself, no matter how bad the time is." Gu Changle said I started thinking about it.

"Yes, people who have no vision must have near worries." Jiang Baimian praised.

Papa, Shang Jianyao also clapped.

During this chat, they came to the fifth floor and entered a relatively spacious room near the alley.

The light from outside shines through the four-sided glass windows, illuminating the bed, table, bench, paper and simple blackboard inside.

At this time, seven or eight women were sitting on the stool and on the edge of the bed, looking down at the paper in their hands, and quietly reviewing the words they had learned before.

Jiang Baimian looked around and took Shang Jianyao to sit next to a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.

Wrapped in a shriveled white cotton jacket, the girl looked intently at the notes from the previous class.

In this cold room, she shivered slightly.

When the other party came to an end, and raised his head, Jiang Baimian showed a harmless smile:

"How long have you been here for class?"

The girl has a delicate appearance, just a little haggard.

She answered politely:

"It's almost two months."

"How is the teacher?" Jiang Baimian asked speculatively.

This may be the most concerned issue for first-time students.

"Very well, very patient, and knows a lot." The girl didn't mean her compliment.

At this moment, Shang Jian Yao interrupted and said:

"Why do you think of pooling money for a'temporary teacher'?"

The girl found out that it was wrong, looked at him, and said in surprise:

"How come there are men?"

This incident was done by the women in the yard doing skin and meat business together, and no men usually showed up.

"Should you not allow men to do skin and meat business?" Shang Jianyao was confident.

"My friend." Gu Changle hurriedly introduced.

The girl's gaze swept across the faces of Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian, becoming more and more puzzled.

She didn't ask much, sighed, and answered the question just now:

"My sister works as a prostitute in a nightclub. If she doesn't pick up guests, she doesn't count as a slave.

"She got a visceral disease six months ago and was kicked out. She found someone to treat it for a while but she didn't get it. She died soon...

"She keeps saying that there is no hope in doing this business, why can't she jump out, in a few years, maybe she will die of illness, so I don't want to follow her. Is there any way, I have to live first?

"I'm attracting guests by myself, and it's okay to pay attention, but it's not a way to keep going like this. One day I will be like my sister when she dies..."

The girl stopped, lowered her head, and "laughed" instead:

"I thought, while I still have some money, I can read words and learn more. I might have the opportunity to work as a clerk in the municipal building in the future, and I can also take on the mission of a relic hunter without risk, so I don't have to do this job again."

"Yes." Jiang Baimian agreed sincerely.

The girl wanted to say something, and suddenly saw someone coming in at the door, so she stood up and said:

"Hello, Teacher An."

Jiang Baimian followed and looked over, a little dumbfounded.

The "temporary teacher" who came was actually someone she knew.

An Ruxiang, a relic hunter once encountered in "Black Marsh Wilderness" and Marsh No. 1 Relic.

She is a member of Wu Shoushi's team, and she knows where Wu Shoushi's body was placed from the "Old Tune Team".

An Ruxiang's cold and indifferent expression also showed some fluctuations:

"you guys?"

"Surprise?" Shang Jianyao stood up and asked enthusiastically.

No longer wearing army green camouflage, the black An Ruxiang opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.

She was both alert and confused.

Jiang Baimian pointed at the door:

"Hang out to talk."

An Ruxiang nodded silently, and walked out of the room in the doubtful eyes of the students.

Coming to the end of this floor, Jiang Baimian said first:

"We took an investigation mission and didn't expect to meet you."

An Ruxiang's expression darkened, and immediately returned to normal:

"After leaving the ruins, we took Shoushi back to Yecao City, buried him, and buried him where he was born.

"On our trip, the harvest was pretty good, and there were only two people left, so we just went to work on our own.

"I was in no mood. I didn't take the task for a long time. Later, I recovered a bit and took on some tasks in the city, including being a'temporary teacher'."

"Then you are now like this?" Jiang Baimian asked curiously.

In her eyes, An Ruxiang is a woman who is very suitable for adventure and battle.

An Ruxiang looked back at the temporary classroom and said calmly:

"I just wanted to be a week and find something to do."

"As a result, fell in love with this profession?" Shang Jianyao asked with interest.

"I can't talk about liking or not." An Ruxiang's tone did not fluctuate.

Maybe she met acquaintances who had helped each other, she talked a bit more, and continued to say like memories:

"I grew up in a killer organization~www.ltnovel.com~ There is nothing to hide. In the years before the new calendar, there were many such organizations.

In addition, the novel app I'm using recently, [\\mi\\mi\\read\\app\\\\] Android and iPhone support!

"Later, that organization was destroyed, I escaped by luck and started wandering on the dust.

"The education I have received since I was a child is how to kill, even if I read words, it is for the purpose of killing. Once there is no target, I don't know what to do. I can't find it. Well, Morishi said, the meaning of survival.

"Until I met Morishi, I slowly got rid of that state. It may be that I understood too late and he could not wait until..."

Having said this, An Ruxiang was silent for several seconds before saying:

"After he died, I couldn't find the meaning of survival again.

"But when I was teaching them, I found that there was light in their eyes."
