The New Neighbor Text Chapter 003



003

After having lunch at the clinic, Xu Qiao got on his bicycle and set off. It was exactly 12:45 when he returned to the community.

It was mid-March, and the sunshine at noon was so bright that a thin layer of sweat broke out on Xu Qiao's forehead and the tip of his nose.

Before the tenant came, Xu Qiao washed her face again and turned off the faucet. Xu Qiao looked at herself in the mirror. With a thought, a transparent water arrow suddenly appeared between her and the mirror. The shape of the arrow was as stable as transparent glass. The real thing is made, the sharp arrow is cold and gleaming.

Xu Qiao's auxiliary ability is water.

Among the five common elemental abilities of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, except for the wood ability, which has three major directions: planting, healing, and combat, the other four elements are basically combat abilities.

E-level superpowers only have strengthened physical bodies, but their mental bodies and superpowers cannot be released. They can at most have talents related to their mental bodies. For example, it is easier for E-level wood superpowers to major in planting and treatment, while E-level gold superpowers cannot be released externally. People with special abilities have more advantages than ordinary people in developing metal products and repairing machinery.

D-level superpowers can release their mental bodies and superpowers, but their abilities are limited. D-level wood-type superpowers can only be responsible for auxiliary work such as tilling, watering, and picking crops, or working as nurses in hospitals and clinics, while D-level combat superpowers are only suitable for occupations such as police in bases to maintain security. Or take on some mercenary missions with the lowest risk level.

C-level superpowers have only begun to truly possess the ability to kill powerful alien beasts alone.

Major military academies have long formulated special curriculum arrangements for students with different abilities based on the suggestions of scholars and the experience summed up by people with powers over the past century.

Like Xu Qiao, there are forty-two classes per week, and only four are allocated to the development of D-level water powers. The purpose is to allow her to develop a strong body and have the most basic survival ability when going on missions outside the base. It's not like he can't even deal with the weak D-class beasts.

In those three years, Xu Qiao did not take it lightly because of her low level of water power. She got full D-level scores in the combat major.

When her lotus spiritual body suddenly turned into thirty-three petals, Xu Qiao carefully concealed her abundant wood spiritual power while exercising her equally abundant water power at night when no one was around.

C-level water arrows and water balls are used to attack, and C-level water walls and water shields are used to defend or restrict the enemy. As long as the tenant who comes to see the house is not a B-level superpower, Xu Qiao can fight back even if the other party has the intention to commit a crime.

At 12:55, Xu Qiao, who was standing in the Lu family courtyard checking the growth of vegetables, suddenly heard the sound of a vehicle driving.

She stood up from the vegetable patch and looked in the direction of the sound. A black car had slowed down and finally stopped steadily outside the courtyard.

That's a brand new car.

There are normal buses and subways in the base, which are also the modes of transportation chosen by most ordinary people and low-level superpowers. Only people with very rich points will buy ordinary cars that are only used within the base. Professional servants Soldiers like to buy or rent modified off-road vehicles that can withstand attacks from alien beasts.

Ordinary cars can also be divided into affordable and luxurious cars. Looking at the brand of the car in front of you, it is obvious that it is a luxury car with a low-key appearance and a high price.

It must be the cheerful tenant, right?

No wonder the monthly rent of 10,000 yuan didn’t come with a counter-offer.

Just when Xu Qiao was trying to figure out the financial strength of the new tenant based on the luxury car, the driver's door opened and a tall figure wearing dark gray trousers and a white shirt came out.

Just looking at the back, this man is at least 1.9 meters tall. Both his shirt and trousers are well-cut and have smooth lines, outlining the man's broad shoulders, thin waist, and straight long legs.

Not counting the male stars in TV series and movies, Xu Qiao has almost never come across men wearing this style of clothing in his life.

What she usually sees are low- and mid-level superpowers who are busy rushing to various companies, factories, or farms, and mercenaries who have just returned from the base and come to the clinic for treatment wearing blood-stained combat uniforms. Even if the low- and mid-level superpowers who are occupied with points and survival have the financial resources to buy such clothes, they don't have the leisure to tidy up like this.

At this time, the man turned around the front of the car, revealing a handsome face that was also unreal.

An overly outstanding appearance and figure will give ordinary people a sense of distance that is difficult to approach. When their eyes met, Xu Qiao just felt nervous, and the other person suddenly smiled, a very light smile, but his eyes were gentle. , people immediately feel that he is very polite and does not treat others arrogantly because of financial resources or other differences.

"Hello, I'm looking for Ms. Xu and have made an appointment with her to view the house."

Qin Chi stood at the edge of the small courtyard and took the initiative to identify himself to the girl who could not tell whether she was an adult inside, and then cast his eyes on 102 behind her. window, guessing that there might be an elder in the room.

Xu Qiao: "...That's me, what do you call me?"

Since he is the landlord, Qin Chi's smile deepened: "My surname is Qin, and my name is a pool, the pool of the pond."

Xu Qiao inexplicably remembered his nickname "Little Pond" " unexpectedly collided with the tenant's name, her earlobes felt slightly warm, and she looked towards the unit door in a disguised manner: "Should I accompany Mr. Qin to go inside first?" Qin Chi nodded and followed her in.

The Lu family's house was similar to the one shown in the photos, except for the small daily necessities that Lu Yang took away. Xu Qiao led the way and introduced them just like he entertained other tenants, while secretly observing the changes in Qin Chi's expression, trying to judge his interest in each room. Are you satisfied?

However, Qin Chi always maintained his original polite expression. No matter what Xu Qiao said, he would hum or nod.

The tour was quickly completed. As the two returned to the living room, when Xu Qiao turned to Qin Chi, he first saw the other person's slender neck. The top two buttons of his white shirt were undone, making him look casual and relaxed.

The height difference made Xu Qiao take two steps back and then raised his eyes to look into the other person's eyes: "What do you think, Mr. Qin? Is there anything you're not satisfied with?"

Qin Chi noticed the nervousness she tried to hide and said with a smile, "Very good. "When will you sign the contract?"

Xu Qiao: "... You are really happy to sign the contract. The house belongs to my brother and you need to sign it with him. He is in middle school. Except for weekends, it is usually around nine o'clock in the evening. Come home, which time is more convenient for you?"

Qin Chi: "If I'm sure he is willing to rent it to me, I can sign it tonight, or wait until the weekend. I'm not in a hurry."

Xu Qiao: "My brother is very talkative. He only has two requirements for tenants. One is to take good care of the house, and the other is to live in harmony with the neighbors in the same building. I would like to ask, what does Mr. Qin do?"

Qin Chi He smiled and said, "I just applied for a job as a lecturer at the Second Military Academy. This is my appointment letter."

As soon as he finished speaking, a red leather appointment letter appeared out of thin air in his hand.

This shows that he either has space powers or a space crystal core.

It was polite for the tenant to take the initiative to show his professional certificate, and Xu Qiao could check it carefully, but Qin Chi's attitude was so good, she felt that if she looked too carefully, it would be as if she didn't trust the other party.

Therefore, Xu Qiao opened the letter of appointment and only read the first line, which proved that the Second Military Academy had indeed hired Qin Chi. After quickly verifying the seal of the Second Military Academy, Xu Qiao quickly closed the red leather letter of appointment and returned it, happily saying : "With so many people coming to see the house, your career and temperament are the most reassuring to us. When I tell my brother later, he will definitely agree."

Qin Chi: "Your courtyard is very tidy. If you can live in it, It's an honor for me to be here."

Xu Qiao expressed a bit of pride when the fruits of his labor were recognized. Because the land in the base is precious, many wood-type people with small yards will plant densely in the yards, maximizing the use of the yards at the cost of neglecting the beauty. Xu Qiao is not that extreme. With sufficient distance, it looks naturally pleasing to the eye.

She looked at the clock on the wall and explained: "I have to rush to work. I will tell my brother about this in the evening. As long as he nods, I will send you a message as soon as possible."

Qin Chi: "Okay, are you there? " Where do you go to work? If you're on your way, I can take you there."

Xu Qiao smiled and said, "It's just nearby. I'll just ride there. It'll only take ten minutes."

Qin Chi: "Okay, I'll go first. See you when I get a chance." "

Xu Qiao sent him out and the black car drove away. Xu Qiao locked the door and rode his bicycle to the clinic.

When Lu Yang came back in the evening, Xu Qiao told him about Qin Chi's situation with great satisfaction.

When he heard that it was a male tenant, Lu Yang subconsciously wanted to frown, but Xu Qiao praised him so much that it would be unreasonable for him to only pick on the other person's gender.

"Let's see if it suits our eyes."

Every owner who grows vegetables in a small yard will install surveillance cameras in the yard. Xu Qiao took Lu Yang to the study and turned on the surveillance playback for him to watch.

So, Lu Yang saw Qin Chi's low-key luxury car, and also saw the hero with supernatural powers who seemed to have stepped out of an idol drama.

Lu Yang tried to find out about the other party's character problems, but surveillance showed that Qin Chi had not peeped at Xu Qiao at all, except to maintain social etiquette.

As a tenant, Qin Chi's conditions are really impeccable.

Xu Qiao: "Mr. Qin knows that you are going home at this time, and he may be waiting. What do you say?"

Lu Yang: "...call him over, and I will talk to him again. No problem, we will sign the contract tonight."

Nine o'clock is not too late. The house is rented out early and the rent is collected a few days early. Xu Qiao immediately contacted Qin Chi.

"Okay, he said he'll be there in about twenty minutes."

Lu Yang: "You rest first, I'll wait for him at 102."

Xu Qiao: "Can you do it alone?"

Lu Yang: "...You shouldn't Seeing how handsome he is, do you want to take the opportunity to take a look?"

Xu Qiao poked his forehead with a finger: "I'm not that superficial." Lu Yang: "Maybe he is already forty if he can be a university     lecturer

."

As the physique of the superpowers is strengthened, the lifespan of the superpowers is also extended. People in their thirties or eighteen years old look not much different from those in their twenties. Middle age is not considered until forty years old, but people like A young girl like Xu Qiao, who is only twenty years old, usually prefers to find a partner under the age of thirty.

Xu Qiao poked him again: "It's okay to talk nonsense in front of me. If you see Mr. Qin, be polite, maybe you will also go to the Second Military Academy."

Lu Yang: "No way."

There are nine military academies in the southeast base . , except for the First Military Academy located in the central area, the Second Military Academy is the strongest, and because the tuition is a bit lower than that of the First Military Academy, many students with A-level abilities from poor families will choose the Second Military Academy, which leads to The enrollment threshold of the Second Military Academy is extremely high, and it is difficult for even B-level students with no family background to enter.

The two-year tuition fee that Uncle Lu prepared for Lu Yang was saved for the Third Military Academy, which was equally strong.

Xu Qiao didn't want to put pressure on Lu Yang, so he didn't joke about "Maybe you will awaken your A-level spiritual body."

In fact, it is not a joke. Low-level superpowers or ordinary people have the probability of giving birth to children of high-level superpowers. It depends on whether they can get lucky.

Fifteen minutes later, Qin Chi came.

Xu Qiao accompanied Lu Yang to greet him, and then returned to 101 alone.

I don’t know what the senior and junior students talked about, but the lease contract was signed.

Two contracts, each with a copy of the identity of the two persons.

Xu Qiao was quite curious about a question. He took the contract brought back by Lu Yang and turned to the end, where he saw Qin Chi's identity information.

It turns out that the new instructor of the Second Military Academy is just twenty-nine years old.

Lu Yang grabbed the contract, stared at her and said, "I'll be thirty next year, not too young."

Xu Qiao: "..."
