Chapter 08 Chapter 8
Yumi's brain is totally insufficient.
His thoughts were still in turmoil when a huge rumbling sound came from the sky above, which made his ears uncomfortable. He quickly covered his ears and looked up.
...Another starship!
But when the starship approached, the monster, which had been relatively quiet, seemed to be stimulated by something. He roared, his face gradually distorted, and his extremely oppressive golden eyes seemed to be stained with blood... His gaze always followed Yumi.
After a moment, the monster turned its head slightly, its face hidden in the shadows, and suddenly a flaming hot breath extended out, and it stretched out its claws to grab him!
He wanted to grab Yumi to prevent her from getting hurt in the ensuing turmoil.
However, his body, his aura, everything about him, in the eyes of little Yumi, was an unbearable danger and attack...
Yumi stepped back hastily and hid under a nearby cart.
…
At this time in the starship, Carl ordered the people around to stay away from this place, and ordered the soldiers with blinding skills to cover up Ansius's true appearance. Then he asked people to prepare a giant iron cage... Once Ansius entered an uncontrollable violent state, this method was the only way to take him away, and this was also the worst plan.
God knows, Carl was scared to death when he found out that the prince's real body ran out to look for the little guy.
As for why His Highness Anxius didn't go there wearing a humanoid suit...
This has to do with the sudden incident in the black market yesterday. When Karl thought of that scene, he felt unlucky for Ansius.
He never expected that the person that His Highness Anxius had been looking for was actually working in a doll shop in the black market...
At that time, Anxius was unusually excited and could not control the changes in his body, and directly tore the humanoid leather suit he had just put on.
The production of a new humanoid suit will take at least three days.
This formed a vicious cycle. Ansius's real body was too anxious and went into a state of rage on the spot... It took them a lot of effort to take him away.
Unexpectedly, Ansius ran out that day. Fortunately, after secretly looking at the villain, he returned to the palace rationally.
As a result, he came out to follow others again today!
Carl was panting and sweating! He stared at the state of the monster below, and just as he was about to make a gesture, his movements suddenly stopped.
The soldier beside him also widened his eyes and murmured, "What is your highness doing..."
ground.
In the space isolated by a circle of fog, the violent monster suddenly stopped moving after seeing the trembling legs of the little man under the car.
A breeze blew on his face, and the huge monster once again folded its wings and claws. He squatted down, with his tall body almost touching the ground, and tilted his head to look at the boy under the cart.
Yumi slowly lifted her eyelids, and the monster's ferocious face was close at hand.
Yumi didn't dare to speak.
After a terrible silence, the monster uttered two hoarse syllables: "Yumi..."
“…”
On the starship, everyone couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
Carl watched this scene in shock.
His Highness Anxius actually came out of his violent state on his own.
…This was the first time he had done this since being seriously injured.
Carl instantly thought of the purification ability that the Sna people had long lost, and his eyes widened.
Could it be... Could it be that this tiny Sna from the wilderness possesses the ability to purify? !
Looking at the almost invisible figure below, Carl's expression became solemn.
At this time, the investigator wearing glasses that showed off his skills said, "Mr. Carl, His Highness Anxius has already taken back his combat skills, so don't worry."
Karl nodded and asked seriously, “What about the little one?”
"What?"
"That little one... Is he still using the purification skill?"
The other party looked puzzled: "That little guy has no skills."
"……No?"
"Yes, not only is there none now, there probably won't be any in the future."
silence.
Carl stood up awkwardly, touched his nose and sighed, "Then please ask His Highness Anxius to leave."
…
Yumi had never experienced anything like this.
His mind was blank. When the monster whispered his name and sent a friend request to his light brain, perhaps he was too confused and couldn't understand... In his confusion, he didn't know why he clicked the yes button.
A moment later, the monster flew into the silver starship in the air, and with a rumbling sound, the starship quickly disappeared.
Yumi stood up dizzy and looked at the piles of new clothes in front of him. He was stunned for a while and finally stopped a car.
The driver stuffed the cart and Yumi in and took them home without any problems.
All in all, Yumi couldn't understand anything that happened today.
He thought hard for a long time, then decided not to think about it anymore and packed up the clothes and hung them in the closet.
That night, Lily's parents invited him to have dinner together.
Yumi asked in surprise, "Is this okay?"
Lily's mother said: "We are neighbors to some extent. You often play with Lily, and we haven't thanked you yet."
Yumi agreed, and that night he bought a basket of fruit and pushed it in with a cart.
Lily was so excited that she ran over and pushed it with him, just like pushing a toy: "It's fun! It's so fun! So cute!"
Yumi played with him for a while, and when she heard that the meal was ready, she took Lily to wash her hands and go to the dining room.
A variety show was playing on the screen. When Yumi saw the host, her eyes widened immediately: "Swap Life?"
"Yes, you also worked in that restaurant, right? If I hadn't chatted with my colleagues today, I wouldn't have known that you were working so hard outside."
Yumi was stunned and shook her head: "This job is not hard."
Lily's father said, "Standing there all day, following the music box as soon as someone turns the spring, how can it not be hard? And this kind of work is temporary, right? If you have a permanent job, you definitely won't have the time to go. After you finish, you have to find another job... You must have suffered a lot of grievances, right?"
Yumi: “It’s okay.”
Lily's mother said, "But you seem to be very popular. One of our female colleagues watched this episode and kept saying that you are very cute. The production team wants to protect amateurs, so they won't tell anyone about your privacy. The audience doesn't even know your name, so those who like you gave you a nickname - Music Box Baby!"
Lily's father toasted to him: "You work so hard, you will definitely get better and better in the future."
Lily clapped her hands: "Mimi is going to become a millionaire!"
The whole family laughed.
Yumi blushed at what they said, and she smiled and lowered her head to eat.
Returning to the cabin at night, Yumi turned on the light brain and began to search for information related to the latest episode of "Exchange Lives".
Among the comments praising or criticizing many guests, there were actually a few that mentioned him.
[That little staff member is working so hard! ]
[Hehe... I'm already imagining how handsome he will be without the mask!!!]
[Forget it, wearing a mask will definitely make you look ugly, so I advise you not to have any expectations. ]
[She's so cute, what are you talking about? Go away, you spoiler! ]
…
Yumi shyly looked at the comments, feeling happy but also a little worried.
He is not a Sna star, and excessive attention is not a good thing for him.
A new day is coming soon.
In the morning, while combing her hair, Yumi first received a call from her boss Vera: "Look at the trending searches!"
He quickly opened the social software on his computer and clicked on the hot search page.
Vera: “Did you see that?”
Yumi fell silent.
...He became a trending topic.
Hot search No. 5: #Music Box Doll#
Clicking on it, there are screenshots of him in that show, as well as videos of him changing his poses to the music box, and footage of him standing still while several guests deliberately tried to make him laugh or even scare him...
The most popular one is a small tidbit outside the restaurant.
Yumi was captured on camera giving half of the cake to her friend.
After that, there were more and more discussions about him, and someone even registered a fan account for him: Music Box Baby Observation Diary
The latest content posted on this account is the behind-the-scenes video of him leaving the cake.
The comments were lively.
【Tears in my eyes! 】
[So cute and pitiful...I want to buy all the small cakes in that restaurant for my baby! ]
[Is that boy my little darling's boyfriend? Ahhhhh I won't allow you to fall in love so soon! ]
In this comment, an account with an octopus avatar replied: [No, we’re just friends! ]
[I am here? ? ]
The other party no longer responded.
Yumi knew that it was Lin En's account, so he made a video call to Lin En and said, "I'm sorry to have implicated you."
Lin En shook his head. He was very happy. “Mimi, you are amazing! I have never seen you act as a music box puppet before. I didn’t expect you to act so well!”
Yumi's ears turned red: "I didn't expect that either."
Lin En: "Are you still going to shoot today?"
Yumi nodded: "The boss has called me."
"Then go ahead, we'll celebrate later!"
"good."
After locking the door, Yumi went to the store to report with a happy look on her face.
Pushing the door open, Vera and the photographer looked at him awkwardly.
Yumi said: "I was in great shape today. I thought of several new photo poses on the way!"
Vera: "Yummi..."
Yumi: "Boss, the hat was a little tight yesterday, should we modify it?"
Vera stood up and said, "Okay, let's talk about this later. Yumi, come with me first."
Yumi obediently followed her into the office.
There was a small bouquet of flowers on the desk, and Yumi said, "They look great. Are they props for today's photo shoot?"
Vera picked up the small bunch and gently placed it in his arms: "Yummi, I can't hire you anymore."
Yumi's smile froze on her face.
Vera turned her head away, not daring to look at him, and said in a hoarse voice, "You are quite popular on the Internet now... A lot of people are looking for your information. You know, every store manager and clerk here must abide by a rule - that is, you must not be too high-profile. And you are being paid attention to... It's not your fault, but there's really nothing we can do about it."
Yumi looked at the flowers in his arms quietly. After a while, he finally understood the complicated relationship and nodded: "I understand."
Vera paid off his salary with red eyes. When she sent Yumi away, she cried uncontrollably: "Yumi, I really like you... I will contact more friends outside during this period to see if there is a job suitable for you."
Yumi smiled and said, "Thank you, I will find a job."
Yumi went home with flowers in her arms.
On the way back, he thought a lot. He felt that his situation was much better than at the beginning. Before finding a new stable job, he could continue to do odd jobs. He also had a certain amount of savings, so he didn't have to be so tense.
As I was thinking, Lin En called me: "Mimi, there is a new fast food restaurant near the furniture factory. They are having an event. I will pick you up after you get off work and we will go eat together!"
Yumi: "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Yumi's eyes blinked slowly and began to turn red.
That fragile and vulnerable face was finally covered with tears.
However, the tears were soon wiped away, and Yumi walked to the recruitment column nearby with flowers in her arms.
There are a lot of jobs, but almost every one of them says that the applicant must be at least x meters tall.
The conditions that are not harsh for the Sna people are obstacles that Yumi can never overcome.
Yumi rubbed her eyes and continued to read. This time, she finally found a flyer that had no height restrictions:
[The hole drilling competition is in full swing! We sincerely invite all the little guys to participate! ]
He looked at it carefully and found out that this competition was about drilling some strange and bizarre caves. After successfully completing the challenge, he could get bonuses based on the size of the hole, with the maximum prize being 100,000 star coins!
Yumi burst into laughter.
After copying the information on the electronic flyer, Yumi hurried home and started writing the email to register.
After the email was sent, the computer started to buzz - it was a video call from an unknown number.
Are they that efficient?
Yumi hurriedly tidied her hair, cleared her throat, and answered the video call.
The projection in front of her was a man in his thirties wearing glasses and a suit: "Hello Yumi, I'm Karl! Um... Can you please let His Royal Highness Crown Prince Anxius take care of you for a while? Please consider it carefully, we will pay you accordingly!"
Yumi let out a sigh of relief, hung up the phone, and clicked on the option to report a fraudulent call.
