Chapter 119 Mermaid Cruise
What? Women's clothing?
Xu Zhiyan looked at his boss and shook his head frantically.
"It's impossible for me to dress like a woman. I have a way to deceive... Ahem, to appease this Bai Shaoye and make him believe that I am his tutor."
The boss just made a suggestion.
After all, Teacher Fang is a female teacher.
If it was another man, there would inevitably be mistakes, but the other party refused and looked confident, so she didn't say anything else.
There are a lot of old clothes in second-hand shops.
Although most of them were worn by ordinary working people, the two of them worked together for a long time and finally found a few decent ones.
Seeing Xu Zhiyan picking and choosing clothes, the second-hand shop owner couldn't hold back any longer.
"You're a tutor, not a rich man who goes there to play. What's the use of these clothes?" She pointed at a silk shirt with a hole in it, her tone somewhat dissatisfied.
The clothes that Teacher Fang wore when she came were also very simple, just an ordinary clean dress.
Xu Zhiyan was holding a pair of slightly worn but finely crafted handmade leather shoes, and he felt justified in asking for things.
"As long as I use this identity to board the ship, Teacher Fang will be freed. Once on the ship, I may be able to restore my own identity. Of course, I will need some good clothes."
He was also hoping to sneak onto the ship and pretend to be a guest.
Since the road is impassable, it means that for the pre-task of this dungeon, the initial identities that players can get are very few, most likely only a coal burner.
After all, not all players can find a translator to help when they encounter undead that cannot communicate.
The second-hand shop owner glanced at him with dissatisfaction, and finally moved a wooden box out from the bottom of the warehouse.
The wooden box is carved with intricate patterns and the metal buckles are rusted. Although it is a bit old, it still cannot conceal its expensive luxury.
"This is the most expensive piece of clothing in the store. Do you want it?" She looked the thin young man up and down.
When Xu Zhiyan heard this, he immediately put down his leather shoes and took the box.
It's heavy and feels substantial in the hand.
The elderly boss was still chattering about the origins of the clothes.
"This piece of clothing was a second-hand item I received five years ago. The owner didn't charge me for it, but just asked me to keep it temporarily. He said if he didn't come to pick it up after five years, it would belong to me."
"Ten days ago, it was exactly five years since he sent the box. But he said that the clothes need to be worn as a whole set, as it has a special meaning."
That's why the boss is so generous.
She had originally planned to sell this item of unknown origin as soon as possible, as the things in the box always made her feel ominous.
It's as if it's not something humans should hold.
Xu Zhiyan doesn't care what his boss thinks.
No matter what special meaning it has, it becomes his once it is in his hands.
When he opened the box, he was first dazzled by the matching jewelry on his clothes and narrowed his eyes.
On the top is a pearl necklace, each pearl is the size of a fingertip. When strung together, they sparkle and sparkle, giving people the illusion that the pearl necklace is emitting precious light.
Xu Zhiyan picked up the necklace, estimated its value, and felt a little excited.
Should we say that this is a mermaid-related dungeon? This pearl is round and bright, and it is obvious that it is not an ordinary pearl. It is probably a byproduct of the legendary mermaid.
Not willing to put the pearl necklace aside, he unzipped YaYa's backpack and stuffed the necklace in.
He glanced at the pair of pearl earrings on the clothes and took them away.
Putting away the jewelry, he looked at the clothes placed on the lower layer of the box.
The black cloth has a delicate feel and extraordinary texture, and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the color, but he was inexplicably a little uneasy. Why did it look like there wasn't enough cloth?
When he took out the clothes, his expression cracked a little.
This is a long black skirt. The fabric is not too much. It seems that there is more fabric only on the front. There is nothing at the back...
"Boss, this dress is torn."
Before he could complain about why it was women's clothing, Xu Zhiyan subconsciously pointed at the long slit on the skirt with disgust.
Although he didn't plan to wear it, the material felt like it was not ordinary and should be worth a good price. If it was torn, it would be worthless.
"Are you educated? Have you never seen a dress with a high slit?"
The second-hand shop owner was well-informed and was very disdainful of the young man's disgust.
Xu Zhiyan was stunned for a long time before he realized that he was wrong.
He frowned, imagining the pictures he had seen online before, and then glanced at the dress in his hand, frowning and exclaiming, "High slit? It's almost slit to the waist! You call this a dress?"
What the hell is this dress? There’s so little fabric on it and my butt is exposed when I put it on. Even sexy lingerie doesn’t have such little fabric!
The boss ignored Xu Zhiyan's complaints, pointed at the box and asked, "Do you want this?"
"……want!"
Even though he said he disliked it, Xu Zhiyan would still accept free gifts even if he couldn't use them.
For advertising purposes, he even took off his DuckDuck backpack.
As the boss turned his head, the big wooden box containing the gift box was easily stuffed into the small backpack. Maybe because the thing was too big, the duck head on the backpack burped quietly.
Next, Xu Zhiyan picked up the YaYa backpack and started the sweep mode.
The elderly boss didn't expect the young man to be so shameless, and he didn't even have time to stop him.
"How are you going to wear this silk shirt when it has holes in it?"
"You already took a pair of leather shoes, why are you taking another one?"
"You're not going to the deck to sunbathe, why are you holding shorts!"
"What? Sunscreen? No!!"
"You dare to want a watch? Why don't you go and rob it... No, you are robbing it now."
"Why do you want a handkerchief? Can't you just put a tissue in your pocket?"
The old lady was so angry that she roared and almost wanted to drive the bandit away immediately.
The opposite of her.
The live broadcast room was filled with cheerful comments.
【The bandit Xiao Baiwan is back! 】
[God is back, he has always been like this, hahahaha]
[But I didn't expect that he would even take the old lady's property. I laughed to death, hahahaha. ]
[Boss: Get out! Get out!]
【Hahahahahahahahaha】
[Speaking of which, is the women's clothing that Xiao Baiwan got very valuable? ]
[I can’t tell, but judging from Xiao Baiwan’s money-obsessed look, it should be valuable.]
[Hehe Yanyan's wife~ Hehe lick lick! I want to see my wife in women's clothing hehehehehe]
[Has the guy above been released again? Get out! ]
Xu Zhiyan saw that he had put together several sets of new clothes, which was almost enough. Although he wanted to take more, he hesitated for a moment, and looking at the furious old lady, he gave up with regret.
Although this boss is a good person, he still had some reasons for giving him the ticket.
It's reasonable for him to take such a small amount.
The boss obviously knew that he was in the wrong. Although he complained a lot, he did not stop him. After noticing that Xu Zhiyan had stopped, he even angrily found a cane and handed it to him.
"This is a walking stick that a wealthy businessman who passed by lost his wallet and is selling. It should fit the identity you want."
Although Xu Zhiyan felt that he didn't need it, since the other party gave it to him, he of course accepted it without hesitation.
However, the cane feels heavy in the hand, which does not match the wooden surface.
She originally wanted to study it, but when she saw that her boss looked like he was about to kick her out, she could only stuff her cane into her backpack and walk towards the door.
"Hurry up! Be careful not to get hungry at the dock if you come back late!" The boss kept talking and followed Xu Zhiyan to the door.
"Let's go, let's go."
Xu Zhiyan smiled and opened the door, listening to the sound of the wind chimes on the door hitting each other.
Even after he walked some distance away, he looked back and could still see the figure of the second-hand shop owner.
The salty and humid sea breeze blew on my face, but it no longer had the gentleness it had when I came.
Xu Zhiyan stood there for a while, then suddenly turned back, leaned over and whispered a few words in the boss' ear.
"I received your payment."
"I promise, this is the last departure of the Leviathan."
No more innocent people will be taken away.
There is no need for NPC to remind you anything.
After saying this, he ignored his boss who was standing there in a daze and strode towards the dock.
Although he didn't know why a boss of such an old age would want to prevent passers-by from boarding the ship, the other party did help him. As a deal, he still hoped that the other party would run the shop quietly and live a good life in the second half of his life.
Otherwise, if you do something out of line, it would be bad to be included in the system's suppression list.
And behind him, where he couldn't see, was the door of the second-hand shop.
The shop owner, who was hunched over and looked almost crushed, suddenly lowered his head and wiped his eyes.
The sea breeze blew across her graying hair.
The sound of dripping water was heard, and the ghosts of the dead covered with algae stood beside her.
A few thin strands of seaweed were placed on the boss's shoulders, as if to soothe his sudden grief.
After a long time, the boss slowly spoke.
"But I have no relatives to lose..."
Her last relative was also taken away when the Leviathan landed last year.
…
When Xu Zhiyan returned to the dock, the sky had been dyed pink by the setting sun.
This is the last night before embarking.
It was indeed much more lively across the street.
Occasionally, a few old-fashioned cars that looked expensive would slowly stop, and the servants would open the doors for the distinguished guests...
Xu Zhiyan stood and watched for a while, then stretched out his hand and turned the ring, becoming a little eager to try it.
It seems that the time point of this copy is not very modern, probably around the 1950s or 1960s. At first, he thought these old cars looked like antiques, and then he caught a glimpse of a horse-drawn carriage, and he thought that the car was quite advanced.
But thinking that he was still wearing the clothes he changed from the kitchen, which were rather tattered and not suitable for dealing with these people, he thought that he should find his teammates first.
Standing by the road, Xu Zhiyan thought for a long time, put away Yaya's backpack and took it out again, pouring it out several times.
He told himself, patting his face.
It’s okay, there’s nothing shameful in making money!
How embarrassing it is to advertise your own industry!
After repeating it silently three times, Xu Zhiyan held his head high and walked towards the shed carrying a backpack that didn't quite match his current clothes.
As soon as he entered the shed, he saw Jiang Huaique and Jin Sheng waiting for him.
Even Xiaoyi, who had been avoiding him before, followed him this time. When he saw him, he happily rushed over, wagging his tail...
Although there were only three people and a dog in the shed, the scene became extremely chaotic.
"Don't come over here!"
This is Xu Zhiyan with his hair standing on end.
“Woof woof! Woof woof woof!”
This is Xiaoyi, who hasn’t had a pat on the head for a long time.
"Brother Xu, it doesn't bite, don't be afraid..."
This is Jin Sheng starting to act as a peacemaker.
"Pfft - Xu Paopi, are you an elementary school student? What is that on your back?"
As for Jiang Huai Que, he had already pointed at Ya Ya's backpack and started laughing loudly.
Seeing that his attempt to stop her was ineffective, Jin Sheng stood aside and smiled awkwardly.
He glanced at his harmonious teammates and dog, then looked at the sky which was gradually changing from light pink to dark red, and simply ignored it, enjoying the last moment of relaxation before boarding the ship.
After the preparatory tasks, the real difficulty comes.
More than ten minutes later, Xu Zhiyan finally finished touching the dog's head and sat down on the ground with limp legs.
He called up the panel and took a look.
[Main Mission [Part 1]: Participate in the Cruise Party]
[Task 1: Get the qualification to board the cruise ship]
[Progress: 100%]
All teammates have also completed the progress.
Just as he was about to arrange the next plan for his teammates, he glanced at the golden ring on his middle finger and his pupils shrank instantly.
The ring originally radiated pure gold, but although the color did not change, there were a few more black dots on it...
Gold represents the power of ghosts and gods.
Black is the original color of black bones.
Only when it is close to the slice will the power inside be transmitted.
He looked around with a serious expression.
There was no sight of the young boy Bai Jin.
On the wide road next to the pier.
A luxury car with a golden logo was parked on the side of the road.
Behind the half-rolled-down car window, a pair of narrow, slightly childish eyes were revealed.
The servant wearing white gloves cautiously came to the car, not daring to breathe, and kept his presence to a minimum.
"Master...you, you have been looking here for a long time."
He didn't dare say that his young master had been waiting here since the man with the strange yellow backpack walked in, and had been waiting for more than an hour and still refused to get off the car.
If they really like him, wouldn't it be enough to let them kidnap him?
"roll."
The young man's cold and sharp voice came from the car.
It was already dark, and he stared at the messy dock, reluctant to leave.
The skinny young man just now was standing across the street. He was wearing tattered clothes and carrying a ridiculous backpack. He kept pointing in this direction from time to time...but he couldn't take his eyes off them for some reason.
Damn it, how could this poor lowly person look like that?
The young man Bai Jin couldn't help but roll down all the windows of the car. His body was a little restless, and he was eager to see that person again here.
