A Beta boy working part-time in another world

The boy's eyes were full of fear, and he didn't even dare to mention the man's name.

Ye Sui had no choice but to use his trump card.

"How about you answer a question for me and I'll give you a steamed bun?"

"it is good!"

The boy agreed immediately.

What's fear in front of food?

What's more, a steamed bun can buy a life.

Seeing Ye Sui being so generous, the young man already had the idea of ​​becoming his younger brother and currying favor with him.

"Ask me, I'll tell you everything I know."

"Does your city lord have a lover?"

"No, no one can withstand his mental strength."

"Spiritual power?" Ye Sui was stunned, a little confused: "What is spiritual power?"

The young man looked at Ye Sui strangely and showed him his mental power.

A small stone under Ye Sui's feet floated up, but soon fell down. Then came the boy's frustrated answer.

"Ordinary people's mental power is just like this. It's useless and I can't jump to the next level, so I can only live at the bottom."

Ye Sui understood.

The people in this world possess a spirit-based power that is so strong that it can control thoughts. No wonder the search and rescue system was discovered; it may also be related to this mental power.

Ye Sui was glad that he had untied himself from the system in advance so he didn't have to worry about being discovered.

"Then the second question is, how can we get close to the city lord?"

"Why do you want to approach the city lord?"

The young man looked Ye Sui up and down, and seeing that Ye Sui had fair skin and beautiful looks, he had the answer in his mind.

He grinned wickedly and said, "The city lord lives in a safe fortress in the central area. It is heavily guarded and generally inaccessible, but he is recruiting servants recently. You are so good-looking that you may be chosen."

Ye Sui knew that he had misunderstood, so he didn't explain and continued to listen to him.

"But the city lord has a bad temper. In fact, people with strong mental strength have bad tempers. It's easiest to get killed in a place like that. Are you sure you want to go?"

Ye Sui nodded, "Yes."

"Then do you have anything else to ask?"

The young man looked at Ye Sui expectantly, noting the number of steamed buns in his mind.

"still have a question."

"You ask."

"Has anything happened here that everyone knows about?"

The young man thought for a moment and said, "There was one. It happened last year. A woman came to seek refuge with the city lord and brought a lot of high-quality seeds. But for some reason, the woman made a mistake and was executed. Her body was hung in the square and dried until it was taken away."

"thank you, I know now."

Ye Sui gave the boy the corresponding steamed buns as agreed before.

At night, Ye Sui sat at the entrance of the basement and looked towards the city.

The lights there are bright and the sound of factory machinery can be heard in the distance.

Amid the smoke, drones were patrolling densely around the city walls.

9127 came out of the basement and saw Ye Sui looking at the city, thinking that he was thinking about how to meet the city lord.

"You like the city lord so much."

"No."

"I know everything. There's nothing to be ashamed of." 9127 patted Ye Sui's shoulder and said, "Many people tried desperately to get close to the city lord in the past, but unfortunately they all died. That's why I advise you not to go. There will be no good results."

Ye Sui said nothing after hearing this.

9127 just talked a lot to himself, and Ye Sui listened to his complaints quietly.

"9127, can I call you Xiaojiu?"

9127 was stunned. "What do you mean?"

Ye Sui replied: "I think it's hard to remember your number. Can I call you Xiaojiu?"

The boy's cheeks suddenly turned red, but fortunately the night concealed his shyness.

"Of course...Of course."

Ye Sui picked up a branch and wrote on the ground using the language of this world, and told him what his name looked like.

"Xiaojiu, because when you smile, you have two dimples at the corners of your mouth, so this name suits you very well."

Xiaojiu stared at the words on the ground for several minutes.

Ye Sui thought he was taking notes, so he didn't disturb him.

"Ye Sui, do you know what it means to have a name?"

Xiaojiu suddenly stood up and looked at Ye Sui.

"What does it mean?"

Seeing the clean look in Ye Sui's eyes without any distractions, Xiaojiu suddenly felt that it was better that the other party didn't know, as it was not a big deal anyway.

"nothing."

He laughed and hid back in the basement.

He used to live alone, and his house was as messy as a doghouse, with garbage piled everywhere.

Xiaojiu looked around and felt that there was no place in his doghouse worthy of Ye Sui.

He cleared the clutter off the abandoned sofa and laid a clean blanket on it, and it finally looked like a place to sleep.

When Ye Sui came back, he coughed and said, "You sleep on the sofa."

"it is good."

Ye Sui glanced at the place that had been specially cleaned up and smiled.

"Thank you."

"nothing....."

Xiaojiu, lying on the bed, mumbled and pretended that she was going to sleep.

Ye Sui didn't show any disgust. He lay down with his clothes on and closed his eyes.

The next morning, the sky was still gray-blue and it was only around six o'clock. Xiaojiu had already brought Ye Sui into the city.

He showed Ye Sui the way and hurried to work. Ye Sui waved to him and went to the gate of the security fortress in the central area alone.

The situation here is indeed very severe. There are combat robots and cyborgs everywhere. They hold weapons in their hands and all look at Ye Sui who is approaching the door.

The robot in charge of guarding the door scanned Ye Sui's appearance, and after finding no data, asked: "Purpose?"

"I'm here to interview the maid."

The robot passed Ye Sui's words to the corresponding manager and quickly received the instructions.

"Okay, please go through the scanning area. You can enter only if no dangerous goods are found."

"Okay." Ye Sui followed the robot's instructions. After passing through the inspection area, he was taken away by a cyborg.

The other party claimed to be the steward here, responsible for all matters big and small in the fortress. Even jobs like interviewing servants had to be personally reviewed by him.

The butler took Ye Sui to a small room and began interrogating him.

"name."

"Ye Sui."

"How big."

"22."

The butler was very satisfied, and then asked, "Do you have any experience in serving others?"

Ye Sui was about to answer "sometimes" when he immediately realized that this question might not be as simple as he thought.

So he answered truthfully: “No.”

"Not bad, clean enough. Go inside first. I want to check whether what you said is true. If you dare to tell a lie, you will not want to get out alive."

Ye Sui followed him in.

Ten minutes later, he came out with a stern face.

The housekeeper put a qualified label on Ye Sui's information.

"Okay, starting today you are a second-level servant of the fortress. You don't have to do particularly dirty work, but remember that everything you have belongs to the city lord, including your body. Do you understand?"

"Understood, butler."

"Okay, go out, a robot will arrange a lounge for you."

Ye Sui nodded and stepped back, following the robot to the lounge.

He was not assigned any work on the first day, and only started to clean the city lord's bedroom with other servants on the second day.

The room wasn't actually very messy, it just had some blood stains and needed a little cleaning.
