Chapter 657 Are wages paid?

This sudden meeting was unexpected by both parties.

Bronya did not expect that Sirin, whom she had been looking for, would meet here, and Sirin did not expect that she would meet Bronya when she came out to relax.

When she saw Bronya coming to him and opening her mouth to ask her to help, Sirin crossed her arms and stared at her coldly.

She is not a very helpful person. In fact, Siren doesn't want to listen to Bronya's request.

But seeing that Bronya obviously had no intention of leaving, Sirin could only face her directly and ask softly.

"What?"

"Bronya has something she wants to ask the old man on Huberian. Can you send Bronya there?"

It's not a big deal, it's okay for Siren to do her a favor and send her away.

But Siren shook her head to persuade.

"I advise you not to waste your efforts. I have never seen that old man before. If he doesn't want to see you, it's impossible for you to see him."

This is the truth. The main reason why Siren came to Hyperion was to meet the old man. The old man definitely knew a lot more than they imagined.

However, for such a long time, Xilin didn't even see his shadow.

"Is this so..."

Bronya scratched her forehead.

But she didn't mean to give up, but continued to look at Xilin, as if to say.

"So you really won't help me?"

"Okay, okay." Xilin found it troublesome and didn't want to waste any more words. She waved her hand and a portal appeared.

"Thank you."

Bronya nodded to Sirin and stepped into it without hesitation.

At this time, Huberian.

"Himeko, have you sorted out all the recent cases?"

Theresa frowned. A lot of things had happened recently, and they had also become busy, flying around in many places to deal with the strange Honkai beasts that suddenly appeared.

"Well, these are all the recent events." Jizi put a large pile of information on the table.

"There are actually so many."

Theresa felt a little dizzy.

"I'm quite busy tonight."

Covering her head, Theresa looked distressed.

"There is indeed some trouble, but it's strange. Just now, these sudden events seemed to have stopped. They stopped very suddenly, and I don't know why."

Himeko put her hands on her hips and shook her head as if she didn't understand.

"Forget it, I'm going to get a glass of bitter melon juice. It looks like I'm going to have to stay up late tonight."

After saying that, Theresa turned around and walked out of the main control room.

As soon as I arrived outside the door, I saw a portal appearing in front of me before I had gone far.

"Huh?" Theresa was a little surprised, but soon she saw Bronya emerging from it.

"Bronya?"

Teresa is weird.

"Is your training with Mr. Walter over so soon?"

"..." Bronya no longer wanted to explain.

However, Theresa did not continue to ask in this regard, but changed the question.

"You are coming back so late. I believe there is something going on, right?"

Bronya nodded.

"Well, Principal, do you know where the old gentleman is? Bronya has some questions to ask him."

"Are you talking about the old driver?" Theresa thought for a moment.

"I really haven't seen him recently. She seems to have left and never came back."

"Is this so..." Bronya was a little disappointed. It seemed that just like Sirin said, it was really difficult to see him.

But at this moment, a man holding a wine bottle, his face red from drinking, staggered past.

Not to mention the smell of alcohol along the way, I even said hello when I passed by.

"Hey, hello, Mr. Xiaoyuan."

After saying that, he didn't stop walking. Little by little, his footsteps swirled and disappeared into the aisle.

"……………………"

Bronya and Theresa were stunned and waited until the person disappeared before they finally reacted.

"Is that... the old driver just now?"

This question came to mind, and then the two of them chased in the same direction.

After turning a corner, they saw the old driver lying on his recliner, his head tilted to the side. The slight rise and fall of his chest and the snoring indicated that he was asleep.

The two came to the front, and after looking at the old driver and looking at each other like that, Bronya shook him to wake him up.

But, there was no movement...

Bronya shook her head harder, but there was still no movement...

The reloaded bunny lifted him up and turned him around several times, but there was still no movement...

The two were helpless. Seeing that they couldn't wake up at all, Bronya simply raised the cannon.

"Wait, Bronya, don't..."

Theresa saw Bronya's cannon raised and wanted to stop it, but it was too late. Bronya fired directly at the old driver's face.

I only saw the cannon emitting light, constantly expanding, deforming, and full of technology, but finally a small muzzle protruded from it, and the next second...

Second-rate--!

A jet of water hit the old driver in the face.

"Hey! Hey!? What, what happened?!"

The old driver had a clever idea and jumped out of the recliner.

He raised his head with a confused expression and met Bronya's eyes.

"Ah!" The old driver wiped the water on his face and looked at the two people in front of him who looked directly at him.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Then he seemed to have thought of something, especially when he saw Theresa was there too, he became more energetic and his eyes brightened.

"Oh yes! Wages have been paid!"

As he spoke, the old man slumped down on the recliner again. The little energy he had just raised gradually visibly weakened, and his voice gradually became lazy.

"Well, just put the salary on my card. I believe you, the director of the small garden is a real person."

"Ha~!"

Without giving them a chance to speak, they stretched themselves and fell back to sleep.

Theresa thought to herself, you and Xiao Tianqi are really masters and disciples, one of them is thicker than the other.

How many days were you at Huberian last month? But you still had the nerve to ask for salary?

But compared to Theresa, Bronya is much simpler and rougher.

The reloaded little rabbit appeared in the void and lifted it up directly for him.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing? My old arms and legs, how can I withstand your torment like this?"

"And why are today's young people so frivolous? Are the traditional virtues of respecting the elderly and loving them gone?"

The old man was disturbed and looked at Bronya as if he wanted to teach her a lesson and let her know how to respect the elderly.

But Bronya doesn’t care about you.

"Bronya has a question for you."

"Ah?" A question mark appeared on the old man's head.

Bronya simply told her and Walter's guesses, and then looked at the old man.

"Do you know what these abilities are? Or, are these the powers you give to the teacher?"

Faced with this problem, the old man looked confused.

"Uh... you think too highly of me. I'm just an ordinary old man. I drink tea every day, bask in the sun, and occasionally drive a car and solicit customers. You must have misunderstood something."

After saying that, the guy burped.

Seeing this scene, Bronya didn't know what to say.

You clearly know that this old man is talking nonsense, but you can't help it if they don't tell you.

"Cough cough!"

Theresa coughed at this moment and looked at the old man with his arms crossed and smiled.

"Is that so? Then if I say you don't explain clearly, I will deduct your salary! Reduce your salary! Confiscate your tea table and recliner! These are Hyperion's resources."

"That's what I think! In fact, you are making things complicated." The old man sat up directly and looked at Bronya with a serious look on her face.

"Have you ever thought that maybe it's not as complicated as you think? Since there are two completely opposite things, why do you want to improve one by one?"

"Actually, you can treat them as the same thing, just like science and metaphysics. Why would you choose one over the other? Can't you practice together, isn't it? It's discussion?"

“Then just merge them into a path of your own.”
