Chapter 15: Work Content: The raccoon who doesn't want to rummage through the garbage is not a good home...
In a game set in modern society, a man actually calls her "Master"... What does this mean? What is their relationship?
The little raccoon didn't understand and was shocked.
"It's the kind of relationship you're thinking of... what else could it be?" The man who made this statement didn't seem to mind the problem at all. He shrugged nonchalantly and asked, "What do you think?"
The little raccoon, with all kinds of wonderful props and ways of playing related to his master flashing through her mind, instinctively glanced at his muscular chest muscles and empty neck, and covered her pink nose with her claws: If she were to think about it, I don’t know if this game will pass the review.
It was obvious that she really had no recollection of it, and the smile on her face faded slightly.
He pinched her furry ears and said thoughtfully, "This reaction...you really don't remember it?"
【Fushiguro Shiji expressed his concern for you. 】

"Not completely." Chaomu, who was about to push him away and out the door, paused and used his claws to push his hand aside, narrowing his golden eyes slightly. "I still remember that I am your master - so when will you give me the salary card?"
This game actually has a pet system, and it actually supports people? Is it a dispatched system? Does it earn money for her to spend, or can it help her scoop up trash? What else can it do... can it be a puppy?
Anyway, the green name that Shen'er has here with her shouldn't attack her suddenly like Kurosawa Jin did, so it would be good to have more conversation with him to test his reaction.
"Since you've lost your memory, stop dreaming here, little one." Shen Er chuckled and held her in his arms again, his full chest muscles pressed against the back of her head, and walked straight to the kitchen. "Back then, you were the one who raised me. Raising a pet is very expensive."
Is this something that can be said?
The little raccoon's head was pressed tightly against the elastic chest, but he didn't try to break free. Instead, he used his claws to pull at his arms, thinking deeply.
He actually only corrected the part about the salary card and did not deny the fact that he was a pet... What on earth did she do when she "first" met him?
...But looking at the files, she's only eighteen this year. If Fushiguro Jyouji is really her "ex-husband," then...
She pressed against the man's chest muscles, and her eyes suddenly became sharp.
Of course, Shen Er had no idea what the little raccoon in his arms was thinking. He quickly found the kitchen refrigerator, pulled out a barbecue bento and a red bean bun, and put them in the microwave.
The red bean bread was expired goods that she had found in the bakery's trash can before dusk, and she kept it for emergencies - she glanced at the man who had occupied her restaurant so naturally, and had no intention of reminding him at all.
"By the way...are you planning on doing housework?" During dinner, the man finally put the raccoon he'd been holding for so long back down to the ground. He looked down at her, his eyebrows raised slightly. "Is it some new assignment? The pay is high?"
[Fushiguro Shier applies to join your team]
[Note: Different NPC personalities have different reward distribution patterns. Fushiguro Shier's default distribution pattern is 70/30. During the team's joint mission, he will receive 70% of the rewards.]
This look is so familiar. She had the same look in the reflection when she stared at the trash can - and the other party's default distribution mode is also outrageous. When he teamed up with Midorikawa Jing before, he didn't take any rewards and even helped subdue two robbers!
"Even if there is, it has nothing to do with you." She turned her face away in disdain, sat back on the sofa and continued to reply to Hagiwara's message, "Besides, aren't you a gigolo? Your hourly wage is much higher than housekeeping, right?"
To my most important friend number 1: I've incorporated certification into my career plan and will likely be taking on jobs while studying.
Damn it, my relaxed mood was instantly overshadowed after I said this... No, I shouldn't think like that. Improving skills and experience in the game is still much easier than actually working.
"Please be a little more considerate of single dads who have to support their families. I have two money-eating beasts at home." As she sent the message, Shi'er quickly devoured a large box of barbecue bento, tapped the box with his chopsticks, and replied lazily, "The kids are so spendthrift. How can I support the family if I don't work part-time?"
"Besides, your 'housekeeping job' shouldn't be an ordinary job." Seeing that he couldn't attract her attention, he threw the chopsticks into the box and walked to her side like a big cat. "Garbage recycling... Are you a scavenger? Is it profitable to collect corpses?"
His tone was matter-of-fact. Chaomu, who had just entered the game for two days and had been digging up garbage in the map, was a little dazed: What kind of scavenger... Is digging up corpses also one of the professional branches of "Trash Can King"?
It's quite valuable for reference, so I'll write it down first. Anyway, there is no main storyline in this game now, and the guidance is very fragmented. The degree of freedom is too high, so you still have to rely on yourself.
"It's just ordinary housekeeping at the moment—very ordinary." For now, in order to prevent her mission rewards from being embezzled, Chaomu still felt that she should first correct Shen'er's misunderstanding of her. "It's just helping with housework and disposing of the trash. I haven't developed the kind of business you're talking about yet."
Most important friend number 1: As expected of Xiao Chaomu! So hardworking (puppy throwing flowers)
Most Important Friend #1: (Puppy peeking out) While working is certainly important, be careful when choosing clients. It's best to avoid single men in a certain age group (like those in their thirties or forties), those with unstable jobs, or those with bad habits like alcoholism (Puppy with a serious expression.jpg)
"Huh? Ordinary housekeeping?"
Shiro clearly didn't believe her answer. He sat down beside her, flexing his muscular arms to pull her into his again, and rubbed the hair on her chin with his broad palms. "Really...are you done with this? Or is this just an excuse to come in and out of my house? If you help me take Kei and Tsu Miki out to play, you can go rummaging through the trash can—and yes, if you absolutely have to help clean up, I can reluctantly accept."
As he spoke, his hot breath sprayed on the raccoon's pointed furry ears, which stood up sensitively and the fur on the ear tufts was soaked with water vapor.
Chaomu held his phone, looked at Hagiwara Kenji's warm reminder, and then looked at the suspicious man who came uninvited, whose child was about ten years old, and whose trash can was full of horse racing tickets, cigarette butts and beer cans. He felt that the policeman's reminder was very worthy of reference.
When working, you also have to carefully screen your client base - this kind of suspicious middle-aged man with bad habits looks like he pays little but has a lot of trouble.
Without hesitation, she gave him a headbutt, freeing herself from the restraints of her muscles as he gasped in displeasure, transforming back into human form. "Raise your own child, don't dream of such pie-in-the-sky things. If you really want them, go home to bed early tonight, and you'll dream about anything."
Under the dim light, the gaze from those golden pupils seemed even colder. Her short black hair was plastered to her ears, and her skin, which rarely saw the sun, looked dazzlingly pale.
"Ha... so cold! That's not what you said when you needed me." The tall man didn't seem angry. He rubbed his red chin and pulled the corner of his lips. "Just like before, you used me and then threw me away..."
When Chaomu was brainstorming on the word "use", he snorted and chuckled, then lightly changed the subject: "It's up to you. Since you are doing such a comfortable job now, I won't bother you... I was originally thinking of asking you if you want to work for that Councillor Fujita together, but I think forget it——"
"That guy is very close to Geto Suguru of the Banking Sect. You probably don't want to be targeted by him again. He's been thinking about you for years."
What is the Banking Cult... and who is Geto Suguru? Ex-husband number two? Sounds more like the player's enemy villain.
The game provided too little basic information, and too many vague synopses of the previous events. Chaomu suppressed the urge to click a row of ellipses as a sign of respect. Just as she was about to ask a few more questions, her "ex-husband," who came and went like the wind, had already expertly climbed through the window and returned home.
...So this guy is here tonight to be the Riddler?! The player is still exploring the map, a level 2 newbie! This sounds like a cumbersome setup. Can we let her wander around and explore the storyline before we tell her?
Seeing the NPC slip away from her after leaving behind a clue and a side quest that seemed to be related to the main storyline, Chaomu gritted her teeth and decided to ignore him and deal with the career side quest that she needed to develop first - and by the way, rely on Hagiwara Kenji to complete the novice quest of visiting residents to see if she could open a few more card pools.
To my most important friend number 1: Thanks for the reminder (raccoon spinning). I'll seriously consider it.
Speaking of which, Hagiwara-kun seems to be an elite police officer in the □□ handling team. Will there be bomb disposal skills in his card pool?
I really want to touch it...
The more Chaomu thought about it, the more he felt his fingers itching to move. He decisively sent Hagiwara another message: [But maybe because I just started taking orders, the customer base is relatively small... Hagiwara-kun, do you mind becoming my customer? (Little Raccoon Starry Eyes) I can give you a free trial (Little Raccoon Sprinkles Flowers)]
Although doing favors for free in real life will most likely lead to further abuse of power, it is different in games... There are still many good people in the two-dimensional world. Hagiwara-kun is obviously a good person and would never do such a bad thing.
This time, Kenji Hagiwara took a while to reply to her message.
Most Important Friend No. 1: How could I possibly let Xiao Chaomu work for nothing? (Puppy shakes his head)
Most Important Friend #1: As for me, since I just cleaned my room today, I might not need it right now (Puppy sighs). But you can introduce other clients to Xiao Chaomu.
[Most Important Friend No. 1: I have a friend who may need this service :)]
The author has something to say:
----------------------
I revised Chapter 14 and added a brief introduction to the part-time job system. A raccoon in a maid costume is coming soon (?)
The raccoon's flower pots are planted with cilantro, chives, and other seeds with strange effects. Just give some to NPCs passing by to improve their favorability. There are no tear crystal multicolored fragments in the early stages. Just give whatever you have.jpg
