Chapter 51

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Arctic Fox bus arrived at Guangming Town for the second time today.

This time, there were many more people in the city who came specially to join in the fun after hearing about what happened in the morning. They had been looking forward to it for a long time, and finally saw that small dot on the horizon, and even burst into inexplicable cheers.

When the bus got closer, the crowd of onlookers saw the huge fox head on the front of the bus and many of them covered their chests, feeling frightened.

"Is this a high-level monster?"

"I've never seen a monster higher than A-level. I wonder what level this one is? It looks quite impressive."

"It should be S-level. I heard that many S-level ones are bosses who can crush us with one punch."

"Do you all think it's scary? But I think it looks a bit cute when it turns into a bus, because it's square..."

“But it has a fierce expression!”

"No, it wasn't that fierce when I came this morning. Did I change a car?"

The ferocious Arctic Fox bus braked violently and rudely, stopping suddenly at the city gate, and the door slammed open.

The meaning is very clear——

Those who have been making noises along the way, get down here quickly.

The beastman felt his head buzzing, and when Yao Yonghui got off the car, he glared at him angrily.

Yao Yonghui also felt guilty and reflected on himself. He thought that if his colleagues were eating melon seeds and chatting while he was working seriously, he would probably be very unhappy.

Although he was forced to join the chat in exchange for melon seeds, he was at least an accomplice.

The animal-mimicking behavior of suddenly braking was very bad, but Yao Yonghui was in no position to remind it at the moment, so he could only give it some advice with kind words.

He was not good at this kind of thing, and the Beast Mimic was the most difficult colleague to get along with in the entire hot spring. He snorted when he heard this, and turned his big head to the other direction.

But after a few seconds, it turned back.

Yao Yonghui thought it had changed its mind, but then he caught a glimpse of a person in the car with his hands behind his back, stuffing something under the seat, then hurriedly getting up and walking to the door.

When he got off the car, he smiled at Yao Yonghui as if nothing had happened and said, "Thank you for your hard work, driver..."

Before he could finish his words, something shot out from the car like a bullet and hit the man in the face accurately before anyone could see clearly.

It was hitting him at such a high speed, and it was filled with sharp fragments. He let out a scream, "Who is it?!"

He had clearly checked before he lost it and there was no one in the car. Could it be a ghost? !

The bag stayed on the man's face for a second, then slowly slid down, and the contents scattered all over the floor.

Yao Yonghui and the curious onlookers took a closer look and found that it was a bag full of melon seed shells.

Everyone: “…”

I thought there was a safety accident on the bus where someone was injured by a hidden weapon, but it turned out to be a bag of garbage?

The big head of the anthropomorphic beast faced the man, its ice-blue pupils formed a thin line, and a threatening "hulu" sound came from its throat.

The enlarged beast's eyes were as big as a human head. At such a close distance, the man was suddenly met with a pair of emotionless and cold eyes, and was so frightened that he fell silent instantly.

Yao Yonghui withdrew his gaze from the melon seed shell and frowned, "Did you leave this in the car?"

Recalling the man's actions just now, he immediately guessed what had happened.

I had clearly reminded him, but he still threw the garbage around. Not only could he have left it on the car, but he actually hid it secretly. What was he thinking?

Fortunately, the car was a beast, and it had absolute control over its body, so it discovered the bag of garbage hidden in the corner in time. Otherwise, it would just increase the workload for Yao Yonghui, who is in charge of cleaning. But if he fails to discover it in time and the passengers behind him turn it out, wouldn't it also affect the guests' evaluation of the hygiene of the bus and even the entire hot spring?

Fortunately, their bus has a self-cleaning function - and because of some previous emergencies, they have recently become extremely concerned about personal hygiene... so there are no hidden dangers.

Thinking of this, Yao Yonghui's expression turned a little colder.

He secretly memorized the man's appearance and told his boss about it when he got back to see how Shu Mo would handle it.

The people nearby understood what happened and started to talk about it, saying, "This is too uncivilized."

"You're so grown up, but you still don't understand that you shouldn't litter? Leave the garbage in the car, tsk."

The man was so angry that his face turned red. He turned around and wanted to leave the crowd with his head down, but the mimetic growled again. He was so scared that he stopped immediately, his legs trembling.

"It asks you to come back and pick up the trash." Yao Yonghui translated.

The Mimic glanced at him.

The player didn't dare to say anything more. For some reason, whenever he saw the blue eyes of the bus, he felt a chill in his heart, but the people around him reacted normally - could it be that he had something to hide?

He didn't have time to think, he bent down hurriedly, swept the melon seed shells and the snow on the snow into the garbage bag, then fled with the bag in the gaze of everyone.

The onlookers finished their criticism and were quite satisfied to see that justice had been served. They were about to disperse when they suddenly stopped.

etc.

What was in the garbage bag that person just threw away?

...Where did the melon seed husks come from? ? ?

Everyone looked over immediately.

With the grand scene of those people promoting the product in the morning, Yao Yonghui had expected the same thing to happen, and he calmly took out a cardboard from his backpack - he had made it temporarily before departure while Shu Mo and Mo Bai were selling goods.

"Good news. Nuannuan Hot Spring has opened a specialty counter, selling melon seeds, nuts, chicken feet, duck necks...all kinds of snacks and gift boxes. Anyone interested can take the Arctic Fox bus directly to the hotel. Tickets are 30 points per person, and children under 12 years old are half price. Line up here to buy tickets..."

Yao Yonghui is usually a quiet person, but he is very decisive when working. There is no emotion in this set of promotional slogans, only his voice, rumbling across the gate of the town.

…The Mimic’s head started buzzing again.

It suddenly realized that once its work partners stopped slacking off, it seemed quite unbearable.

The Mimic changed back to its normal form, raised its paws to cover its ears in despair.

After Yao Yonghui shouted once, many people came to ask about the situation, so he began to answer them diligently one by one.

Yao Yonghui thought very clearly.

At noon, the boss said that he would be allowed to eat and drink while waiting, and even allocated funds for him to be reimbursed as work expenses. So he had to do a good job of this "promotion" task.

Besides, Yao Yonghui also knew that Shu Mo had no need to do this.

In all these years of traveling around the country, he has met bosses who almost always try to save as much as possible. There are also many who find ways to delay and avoid reimbursement for things that they have arranged themselves.

It's so hard to meet a boss who tries her best to provide benefits for employees. How can I be worthy of her kindness if I don't take my work seriously?

When the Arctic Fox bus returned to the hot spring, Shu Mo was taking a walk outside.

She now goes out for a walk whenever she has nothing to do. On the one hand, it is to prevent herself from sitting for a long time. On the other hand, it is also to plan the future development direction of the hot spring.

Hearing the sound of the bus, she slowly walked back from the back of the house and saw a frustrated fox ass.

——The big fluffy tail dragged behind the Arctic Fox bus was now hanging listlessly on the ground, and the whole bus exuded a strong sense of depression.

Shu Mo: “?”

Shu Mo walked to the front of the car, "What happened?"

Yao Yonghui was standing by the car door, seeing off the last passenger. Hearing this, he seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.

"There was a passenger on the bus that went to the town just now. He was going back to get something and took two bags of sunflower seeds with him to eat on the way. On the way back to the hot spring from the town, he didn't finish the sunflower seeds, so he shared them with the new guests on the bus."

Yao Yonghui didn't say anything, but the man still stuffed a handful into his hands.

He made all kinds of excuses, declined again and again, and tried hard to refuse... but he still couldn't refuse.

The mimic thought that after surviving the journey, he could pick up a new guest on his return and would no longer hear the devilish clicking sound.

Who would have thought that thanks to that enthusiastic big brother, it was clicked all the way again.

It feels like the whole car has been marinated in five spices.

The beast was so ferocious when he left, but when he came back and saw Shu Mo, he immediately started crying.

Yao Yonghui looked at its smooth conversion and remained silent.

The last guest entered the inn, and the mimic immediately changed back to its original form, lying on the ground and wiping its eyes with its claws.

Yao Yonghui then took the opportunity to talk about someone trying to leave garbage on the bus. Shu Mo also frowned when he heard it, squatted down, and touched the fox head of the anthropomorphic beast. "If there is such a passenger in the future, you can continue to throw the garbage bag on his face. I allow it."

As he said that, he felt it felt good and stroked it again.

The mimic beast visibly relaxed a little.

It slowly lowered its paw.

After rubbing for a long time, the pad of the flesh became dry, without any trace of wetness.

"..." Yao Yonghui finally guessed the beast's little thoughts a little bit late.

Perhaps after he impulsively retaliated against the passenger, he was a little worried about being criticized by his boss, so he started acting pitifully as soon as he came back.

But after the mimic beast was relieved, it did not move and hummed twice.

Mo Bai happened to be passing by to give sunflower seeds to the guests in the foot bath spa. Hearing this, he translated, "It said that it has now become a mixture of five-spice and caramel flavor."

After translating, he glanced at the Mimic, and the implied scrutiny in his eyes frightened the Mimic so much that he shuddered. It seemed that he suddenly remembered that he was also a link in the black dragon's food chain, so he added a few more sentences with sobs.

Mo Bai: "It also smells like a garbage bag."

He retracted his gaze and said before leaving, "I don't eat my colleagues."

My colleague only looks okay, but in fact it is just a pile of virtual electronic debris. The taste when you bite it is very empty. The melon seed shells are more seasoning than it.

Beast Mimic: “…”

It understood the meaning of Mo Bai's last look, and for a moment it didn't know whether it should feel sad or relieved about the fact that it tasted so bad.

Shu Mo didn't know how much information his two summoned beasts had just exchanged. Looking at the mimic beast lying on the ground without saying a word, he felt that it was somewhat lovable, so his heart softened a little.

She rummaged in her pocket and held her hand out in front of the mimicry. "Here."

The mimic raised its head, opened its big eyes that were trying hard to hold back moisture, and looked back, and saw a handful of melon seeds spread out in the palm of its master.

Beast Mimic: “…………”

Shu Mo: "Think positively. If you can't beat them, just join them. If they knock, you knock too. Then you won't be able to tell whose smell it is, right?"

Yao Yonghui: “…”

suddenly see the light.

Boss, you are such a little genius!

Before dinner, Xu Ruixi walked down the stairs.

After an afternoon of work, Momo and Qingqing quickly became good friends. They even pestered their mother to go hand in hand with them to try the big bath downstairs and have a lot of fun in it. After returning to the room after taking a hot spring bath, the two little girls still refused to separate and pulled Haohao and Xiaoyi to play with the toys that Momo brought.

With other parents watching, Xu Ruixi took the opportunity to go downstairs and prepare to find a piece of open space on the plain to set up the tent before dinner.

She walked out of the cabin, turned a corner, and almost stepped on a big, shaking tail. She screamed and took two steps back.

"Ah, be careful." Shu Mo, who was not far away, said hurriedly. Seeing Xu Ruixi standing firm, she apologized, "I'm sorry, it's my summoned beast - the mimicry. Don't stay in a place like this. When guests come out, they can't see you. What if you trip someone?"

The mimic beast stood up, carried something away, then moved to another place and lay down again.

Only then did Xu Ruixi realize that this was the beast she had been thinking about. She was so overjoyed that she even forgot what she was about to do. She immediately squatted down and observed the beast carefully.

Who would have thought that a beast that looks so scary in the wild would actually be so well behaved after being tamed?

The mimic beast was lying on the ground, concentrating on doing something, ignoring the human who was staring at it without blinking.

Xu Ruixi looked at it for a while and felt something was wrong, so he moved closer carefully.

Then I discovered that there was a small handful of melon seeds buried under the two front paws of the mimic beast.

Xu Ruixi: “?”

The mimic lowered its head, put its nose close to sniff the scent of the melon seeds, and then used its tongue to roll three or four melon seeds into its mouth at the same time. Its canine teeth bit them twice with a snapping sound, and it deftly separated the kernels from the debris. The remaining melon seed shells were spit out by it.

When it stood up just now, it was holding a serving plate with a fox pattern on it.

——Specially provided by Shumo. Half of it is filled with melon seeds, and the other half is filled with melon seed shells. The division is clear and it is perfect for monsters that can eat melon seeds but whose claws are not very flexible.

Xu Ruixi was stunned.

She likes to study monsters, but she only studies their attack methods, talents and skills, etc. Even if she occasionally investigates the habits of monsters, it is also to make it easier to kill monsters.

She had always known that S-class monsters were smart, but she had never expected them to be this smart... It even made her feel that after being tamed, the mimicry lost its hostility and aggression towards humans, and was a being with thoughts and feelings just like her.

It even knows how to enjoy life. When eating melon seeds, he would half-close his eyes and look contented.

Xu Ruixi was stunned for a moment.

A resident passing by stopped and joined the crowd of onlookers as he saw the mimicry spitting out its skin. "That's weird. This monster can eat melon seeds?"

As soon as the words fell, the mimic suddenly raised its head, glanced at him coldly, then pushed the serving plate away with its head, twisted its body, and turned its butt towards him.

Who are you looking down on?

Passerby: “…”

Why does it feel like there is a kind of contempt in its eyes...

Was he being despised by a monster?

"Why are there so many people at the door?"

When Gu Xiao came out from behind the counter and was about to go upstairs to eat, he was startled by the group of people gathered at the entrance of the hot spring. "What happened?"

Yao Yonghui just came in from outside. Hearing this, he looked at Gu Xiao deeply and said, "It's a mimicry."

In just over an hour, this monster that could only eat melon seeds and spit out watermelon skins had become a great wonder of the hot spring.

Even the guests walking in the bamboo forest were attracted by it.

Moreover, the eating show of the anthropomorphic beast seemed to have some kind of magic. Seeing it eat so happily, the people watching couldn't help but swallow their saliva and came in to buy things halfway through watching.

Shu Mo didn't expect such an unexpected sales effect. He gave the mimic a thumbs up when he passed by and said, "I'll bring you another bag of duck necks later."

This scene happened to be seen by Yao Yonghui.

Thinking about the animal's skillful way of acting coquettishly, his mood suddenly became a little complicated.

Although he didn't take the promotion seriously, wouldn't it be embarrassing for a bus driver (who actually has nothing to be proud of) to have his bus promoted faster than him?

"Brother Yao, what's wrong with you?" Gu Xiao noticed something was wrong.

Yao Yonghui said in a heavy tone: "I just suddenly remembered that a friend once told me..."

“Employees who know how to please their bosses will have an easier time getting promoted in the workplace.”

Gu Xiao: “?”

Gu Xiao opened his mouth in confusion and said weakly, "...Ah?"

Mo Bai, who was passing by silently, suddenly stopped and turned his head solemnly: "Is there such a thing?"
