Chapter 4
"Hey, sister, what's your budget? I see you came here to make your own way. I guess you'll go back after proving yourself, right? How about I find you some houses that are still rented? That would be more cost-effective."
Kofi and Yun Piancheng are of similar height, and they look like close sisters. She walked up to Yun Piancheng and embraced Yun Piancheng.
Since he planned to come here for a half-vacation to relax himself, Yun Piancheng did not refuse this sudden action and tried to adapt to normal social interaction, but he still couldn't help but tense up his body.
I don’t know if Coffey noticed it.
Yun Piancheng turned his head slightly, the sharpness in his eyes had long disappeared, his eyelids drooped slightly, and he looked a little listless, and perhaps even a little dead if you looked closely.
The skill that had just subdued Doge seemed to be a last gasp.
Ji Huai also turned to face Kofi, blinking his round eyes.
"It would be best if we could move in right away if we have enough budget," Yun Piancheng said. She paused, "I heard that the psychologists here don't stay long."
"Oh, that's right!" Coffey snapped his fingers with his free hand. "Some collapsed while treating others, some died on the battlefield, and some simply moved away to continue their work elsewhere."
"That's why I suggested you rent a house. Who knows, you might only stay here for a month and then decide it's not as comfortable as home and leave."
"Don't call us profiteers. If someone dies and there's no family to inherit the property, we'll reclaim it. So, except for those whose ancestors have lived here for generations and those who have children, everyone else basically rents."
Kefei patted Yun Piancheng on the shoulder and spoke earnestly.
"At least I won't leave before I've experienced conscription once," Yun Piancheng said calmly. "So, do you have any unused psychological clinics with rooms? I'll pay for them in full."
She knew that Coffey was testing whether she really wanted to stay, no matter what her purpose was.
Kefei raised his eyebrows, increased the strength of his hands, and patted Yun Piancheng again: "That's great, if you ask me that, I actually have one, come with me."
"It's just..." Kofi stretched out his voice and used his eyes to frantically hint to Yun Piancheng to continue.
"What?" Yun Piancheng cooperated after getting the hint.
Satisfied, Kofi took his hand off Yun Piancheng's shoulder and clapped his hands: "The neighbor is a bit difficult."
Ji Huai blinked and tried to imitate Kofi by creating two arms and clapping his hands.
He held his breath and focused his attention on both sides of the ball's body.
One second, two seconds.
Five seconds.
Transformation failed.
It was clearly able to transform into a human form before, but now it seems to be overdrawn and even has a tendency to degenerate.
Ji Huai was angry and anxious, his body turned a little red, but he was afraid that Yun Piancheng and Ke Fei would see his embarrassing failure, so he looked around with his wide eyes.
Finally, after making sure that no one was paying attention to him, Ji Huai deflated little by little like a deflated balloon, and fell limply on Yun Piancheng's shoulder.
Kofi glanced at Ji Huai, and just as he looked away, he focused back on him in disbelief.
Her eyes widened: "Sister, your robot is deflated!"
Yun Piancheng then noticed that the almost weightless little guy had quietly changed his shape, but for unknown reasons, he had no choice but to take Ji Huai off, took the opportunity to pinch it twice in his hand, and put it in his pocket.
"The battery is out." Yun Piancheng remained calm and collected.
*
The house that Kefei recommended to Yun Piancheng was three kilometers west of the city center.
To put it bluntly, it is remote, because the urban area of Belu is not very big.
However, Yun Piancheng had no objection. After all, she didn't really want to make this profession bigger and stronger. She just needed a job that allowed her to come into contact with the outside world and integrate into society normally.
And this vest itself is not short of money.
This is a five-story building, a bit old. There is only one unit door downstairs, and there are two households on the left and right after entering the door. From the outside, the area of each household is about 90 square meters.
Kefei took Yun Piancheng to the door of the unit and introduced it, "101 and 201 are both connected. The bottom is the clinic, and the top is the living room. The original owner was a little girl, who ran away from home like you. She was lucky enough to work for a year, but then she went to the front and never came back."
She pushed open the unit door and led Yun Piancheng in.
"Look, I haven't even taken down the sign she put up before," Kofi raised his chin, motioning Yun Piancheng to look over. "The girl's name is Hessel, and her shop is called Er'er Clinic. She says she hopes everyone's mental problems won't be anything more than Er'er."
"It's a good intention, but it's a pity about the people. It would be better if there weren't so many crappy wars." Coffey shook his head.
After saying that, Kofi turned his head to look at Yun Piancheng again. Seeing that Yun Piancheng was looking at the small "Er'er Clinic" sign, he was very satisfied and an idea suddenly came to him.
Coffey: "Why don't you open a Yunyun Clinic? That would be so cute, like cotton candy, and it would make people relax just by hearing it."
Yun Piancheng: ...
Yun Piancheng: "No, thank you."
"Yun... Yun?" Ji Huai, who had calmed down, took two sips of air and savored Kofi's emotions.
Uneasy, disgusted, and regretful.
Coffey was startled by Ji Huai's sudden voice, and he was flailing around in the narrow aisle, looking panic-stricken.
Ji Huai used his pocket to cover his face and smiled evilly, which was funny.
Guessing that Ji Huai must be in a good mood, Yun Piancheng put his hands in his pockets, and was caught off guard by Ji Huai biting his fingers twice.
He pinched Yun Piancheng before taking revenge on him.
Yun Piancheng was not angry, his expression was normal, but he felt relaxed in his heart.
She fished Ji Huai out and put him back on her shoulder, not forgetting to comfort Kofi: "A last gasp of life."
Coffey let out a long sigh and touched his pounding heart.
She has been timid since she was young and cannot stand being frightened.
"Okay," Coffey said.
Yun Piancheng recalled Kefei's words and asked, "By the way, you mentioned this neighbor..."
Before he could finish his words, footsteps were heard from the door of Room 102, and then the door opened with a swish.
A young face poked out from behind the door, his brows furrowed, his face ashen, and he looked in a very bad mood.
The woman looked Yun Piancheng up and down, making Yun Piancheng feel a little uncomfortable.
She opened the door wider, only to see Kofi, who had just been standing in her blind spot. His expression became even uglier, and his voice was sharp: "Kofi Owen, you sold Er'er's house!"
Kofi, who was rarely called by his full name, gasped. Just as he was about to explain, Yun Piancheng spoke first: "Excuse me, who are you..."
"What do you care who I am!" the woman said angrily. "This is Er'er's house. No one else can live here!"
She turned to face Kofi, her face flushed and her body shaking unconsciously. She was obviously furious. "Kofi Owen, do you still have a heart? When your father retired from the war, who provided him with psychological counseling?"
"During that year, how many people in Belu City had their mental problems alleviated by her? Huh? Tell me! Why aren't you talking?"
"How dare you let someone occupy Er Er's house? How dare you!"
The woman got angry and her body swayed, but Coffey, who had been staring at her toes and dared not say a word, reacted quickly.
"Hey, hey, hey, Qin Yin, calm down. You're not feeling well, so don't be angry." Kofi hurriedly tried to pick up Qin Yin, but was pushed away by Qin Yin.
Qin Yin rushed out the door and blocked the entrance of 101. She said fiercely and gnashed her teeth: "I don't care who you are. I tell you, as long as I, Qin Yin, am here, no one can take Er'er's house away!"
Yun Piancheng's expression never changed: tired, calm, and composed.
She looked at Qin Yin silently, recalling the psychology knowledge she had learned.
She needs to judge Qin Yin's emotions, not stimulate her, listen with an open mind, gradually let Qin Yin trust her, and then open her heart.
But the problem is, how to avoid irritating Qin Yin and make her willing to talk.
Ji Huai also imitated Yun Piancheng and narrowed his round eyes, but because Qin Yin's negative emotions were too strong, he couldn't help but sniff the air.
Feeling the movement on his shoulder, Yun Piancheng remembered that he had a helper. He understood and poked Ji Huai.
Ji Huaifu reached his heart, exhaled a long breath, opened his huge mouth of the abyss and sucked in the violent wind.
Eat!
The anger was stripped away, and a slightly shallower layer of emotion emerged.
Big tears fell from Qin Yin's eyes. Kofi had never seen Qin Yin like this before, and was at a loss for a moment.
Yun Piancheng reached into his other pocket, took out a tissue, handed it over, and said in a soft voice, "I can probably tell why you don't want someone to live here."
Qin Yin was stunned, and then she wiped her tears hard, but she deliberately slowed down her breathing, as if she wanted to hear what Yun Piancheng had to say.
"You are Miss Hessel's good friend, and you want to guard her few...relics for her." Yun Piancheng said.
She pronounced the last two words very softly, as if she felt the same regret as Qin Yin for the passing of a young and energetic life.
She had been in the army for a long time, and it was inevitable that she would encounter soldiers weeping for their friends who had died in battle.
Qin Yin took the tissue with trembling hands, but she didn't let go of her words: "Don't think I'll let you move in just like that. There are so many empty houses in Belu City, why do you have to set your eyes on Er'er's house?"
Kofi finally got a chance to interrupt and hurriedly explained, "Well, it wasn't her. She doesn't know where this is. It was me. I brought her here."
Ji Huai was still breathing in the food in big gulps, until his body turned a little gray, with a hint of sad misty blue.
Qin Yin ignored Kofi, pursed her lips tightly, and tried hard to suppress her emotions so as not to lose her composure again and embarrass herself in front of outsiders.
"I'm a psychological counselor," Yun Piancheng said. "Miss Hessel hopes to solve everyone's psychological problems, and that's why I'm here."
"Coffee probably hopes that someone can take over Miss Hessel's unfinished work and continue her life. It's my honor."
Qin Yin's eyes were red, and she was emotionally calmer. She stared at Yun Piancheng silently, trying to determine whether what she said was credible.
"I don't want to embarrass you, Miss Qin Yin. I will open a psychological clinic somewhere else," Yun Piancheng nodded slightly, his tone sincere, "I apologize for disturbing you."
Yun Piancheng turned and left, and Kefei followed her with a sigh.
Ji Huai turned around quietly and stared at Qin Yin with his round eyes.
Qin Yin drove away the invader, but she did not feel relieved. In fact, with Yun Piancheng's departure, the surging sadness rose in her heart again.
She gazed at Yun Piancheng's upright back, tall, firm, and tough feminine aura, just like the Er'er in her memory.
The unit door was not far away. Yun Piancheng had long legs and big steps, so he reached the door in just three or two steps.
"Wait a moment."
Yun Piancheng heard Qin Yin say.
"You won't change Er'er's house number, will you?"
