Chapter 85 Is this appropriate?

Zhou Yi’s words surprised Lu Xiaoshuang.

He waved his hands and said how could he do that.

But he turned around and asked tentatively, "What kind of work is it?"

"You studied finance, didn't you? Our municipal bureau has a finance department. I'll be back in a couple of days. I'll ask if I can arrange an internship for you."

Lu Xiaoshuang looked at Zhou Yi in shock: "Really...really?"

"It shouldn't be a big problem. If not, I'll go and ask the director for permission."

Zhou Yi currently had no idea how to deal with the murderer of the Hongda case. After much thought, he decided to ensure Lu Xiaoshuang's safety first.

Then keeping her under your own nose is the best option at the moment.

However, to be honest, he had no idea whether he could get an internship at the Municipal Bureau. If that didn't work out, he would have to shamelessly go to Director Xie to get his favor.

After all, I am now the spokesperson for Hongcheng Police, so I should have this face, right?

And it seems that Director Xie Guoqiang is a good person.

"However, the financial work of the Municipal Bureau may involve a lot of confidential information. Even interns must undergo background checks."

Lu Xiaoshuang nodded expectantly, then asked cautiously, "Then...how much can I make per hour?"

Zhou Yi was stunned. He was not surprised that she asked for money, but he felt very emotional. Her cautious look was very similar to those workers who were laid off and had to make a living on the roadside.

"It's calculated by the day, not by the hour." Zhou Yi smiled gently, "And I guarantee it will be much more than what you earn working outside."

When Lu Xiaoshuang heard this, she was so excited that she kept thanking him.

Zhou Yi saw her happy and felt happy from the bottom of his heart.

Although Lu Xiaoshuang looks like an adult woman, she is still an innocent child at heart.

"By the way, Brother Zhou, can I still do odd jobs these days?"

"Ah?" This question caught Zhou Yi off guard.

Lu Xiaoshuang quickly explained, "It's not a barbecue restaurant. It's the kind that distributes flyers and pays by the hour. I guarantee it won't have any impact."

Zhou Yi originally wanted to dissuade him, but after thinking about it, he decided not to care so much, lest it backfire.

So he nodded: "Just be sure to pay attention to safety."

After receiving Zhou Yi's affirmation, Lu Xiaoshuang smiled sweetly.

"Then Brother Zhou, you should rest early. I'll go back first."

"Well, be careful on the road."

The two said goodbye, and Lu Xiaoshuang walked to the door. Zhou Yi noticed that she hesitated when opening the door.

"Lu Xiaoshuang." Zhou Yi shouted.

"Ah, what's wrong?" Lu Xiaoshuang turned around when she was about to leave.

"If you go back, where do you plan to go back to?"

Lu Xiaoshuang smiled awkwardly, because the moment she hesitated just now was when she was thinking about this question.

"At this time... the dormitory is closed. If it really doesn't work out, I'll go back to grandma's house."

"Is your grandma's house close to here? There's probably no bus at this hour."

"It's...it's okay. I'm a fast walker and I walk often. It's just...if I ask you to open the door at this time, I'm sure I'll get scolded by my aunt again." Lu Xiaoshuang stuck out her tongue. It was obvious that she was an outsider in that house and didn't even have a key.

"But it doesn't matter. I'm used to it anyway. When she scolds me, I just let it go in one ear and out the other. Hehe."

"Has Officer Qiao, who just recorded your statement, left?" If Qiao Jiali was still there, he could ask her for help in making arrangements.

After all, walking for an hour or two in the middle of the night is too dangerous for a 19-year-old girl.

"Ah, I don't know. How about I go and take a look?"

"Never mind. It's okay."

Zhou Yi took out fifty yuan and said, "There's a hotel next to the hospital. You can stay there for one night and go back to school tomorrow morning."

When Lu Xiaoshuang saw Zhou Yi took out the money, she immediately waved her hands and said, "No, no, I can't take your money. You've been so good to me."

"It's okay, just pay me back when you get your salary."

Lu Xiaoshuang stood at the door and thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "Brother Zhou, wait for me for a moment."

Then he turned around and walked out.

Zhou Yi waited for a few minutes, but no one came back, so he thought she had run away.

Just as I was about to get out of bed to check, the ward door was pushed open again.

Lu Xiaoshuang brought a chair with great effort. Zhou Yi took a look and found that it was the common folding nursing bed in the hospital. It was only 80 centimeters wide, but it became a simple bed when it was opened.

"What are you doing..." Zhou Yi asked in confusion.

Lu Xiaoshuang said with a smile: "I see that this is a single room, and it's quite spacious. Why don't I stay here for one night?"

Wu Yongcheng had mentioned Zhou Yi's ward before. It was specially arranged by the hospital after the hospital learned of his identity, so it was a single room with a TV.

"I originally wanted to rent it for one dollar a night. But the nurse here was so nice and offered to lend it to me for free."

As Lu Xiaoshuang spoke, she began to skillfully fiddle with the folding bed.

Zhou Yi was stunned for a long time before he stammered, "This... isn't good."

Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaoshuang said without even turning around, "It's okay, Brother Zhou, just think of me as a nurse. During the summer vacation after the college entrance examination last year, I worked as a nurse in the hospital for more than a month. I fed the elderly and took care of their excrement and urine. It's no big deal."

Lu Xiaoshuang said it lightly, but Zhou Yi could hear the bitterness in it.

A girl who just turned eighteen went to work as a nurse in a hospital to earn tuition and living expenses, doing work that only women in their forties would do.

This girl is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.

"It's done." Looking at the folding bed, Lu Xiaoshuang was very satisfied, and used her schoolbag, which had been washed so much that it turned white, as a pillow.

Zhou Yi didn't say anything else. If he said anything more, it would make him seem pretentious.

Lu Xiaoshuang searched for a while and found a blanket in the ward cabinet. While sighing that the conditions in the single ward were very good, she spread the blanket, put half of it under her body and folded the other half over to cover herself.

Lu Xiaoshuang smiled at Zhou Yi and said good night.

Zhou Yi turned off the lights and lay down. Soon he heard Lu Xiaoshuang's regular breathing, accompanied by slight snoring.

It seems that she is really tired today.

"Good night." Zhou Yi said softly.

Early the next morning, Zhang Qiuxia carried a thermos bucket and rode her bicycle to the hospital.

She got up at four in the morning to make bone soup, which woke Zhou Jianguo up.

Zhou Jianguo complained, "You let Zhou Yi drink bone soup early in the morning. It's not greasy."

Zhang Qiuxia rolled her eyes at him and said, "What do you care? I gave it to my son, not you."

"Okay, okay, I won't argue with your precious son."

Zhang Qiuxia was in a very happy mood along the way. Although her son was injured, he really showed up this time.

Soon the news of Zhou Yi appearing on TV spread throughout the Ergang dormitory.

Of course, she was the one who started promoting it early in the morning and told everyone she met.

Zhang Qiuxia carried the thermos and walked towards Zhou Yi's ward humming a little tune.

Suddenly she stopped in her tracks because she saw a girl carrying a washbasin walking out of Zhou Yi's ward.

"Oh, isn't this the girl from last night?"
