There is nothing wrong with the training method of the Justice Messenger

Teacher Hiratsuka was obviously aware of his concerns. He covered his mouth and nodded. Seeing that, Li Nian waved his hand and removed the word "Silence".

“——Puha…”

Mr. Hiratsuka was having trouble breathing and took a few greedy breaths of air.

"I'm sorry." Li Nian apologized honestly.

Teacher Hiratsuka calmed down a little, raised her head and stared at Li Nian in silence for a while, then looked down at the exorcist qualification certificate on the table. This time she took it and looked at it carefully. She found that it was made in a very realistic way and had the official seal of the Onmyoji Bureau. It seemed to be a real thing. More importantly, after experiencing all this personally, she could not help but accept the fact that her student had suddenly become a rare figure like an exorcist without her knowing it. She put down the black book and looked at Li Nian with a very complicated look.

"That being said, it's too sudden. When did you ..."

Teacher Hiratsuka wanted to ask Li Nian when his ability awakened, but halfway through, he remembered something and asked tentatively.

“…Is it that spiritual disaster?”

"It was around that time." Li Nian knew that Mr. Hiratsuka would definitely have these doubts, so he explained it with the words he had prepared long ago: "After I awakened my talent in the spiritual disaster, I began to think about taking this path, and then recently, I obtained the qualifications."

Is it so easy to pass the test to become an exorcist?

Even after hearing Li Nian's explanation, the absurd thing still seemed absurd, but the facts were before her, and Teacher Hiratsuka had to believe all this unreasonableness. She pressed her head and felt a headache, and said in a low voice.

"So, you really went to deal with the spiritual disaster yesterday, and you slept in class recently because you were working at night?"

"…Although part of it is wrong…but it's almost what you understand."

There was a brief silence afterwards, and Mr. Hiratsuka didn't seem to know what to say.

Li Nian looked at her expression and knew that her thoughts were in a mess. Li Nian didn't want to say more, and there were similar reasons, such as not wanting to burden others with unnecessary thoughts.

After a long moment, Hiratsuka-sensei's many complex emotions converged into a sigh.

"First of all, congratulations... But you really have walked to a place so far away that I can't even see you without realizing it."

"Look at what you said, it's not such a big deal." Li Nian shrugged. He said it lightly, trying to lighten the mood.

Is that really the case? Mr. Hiratsuka didn't believe it and looked at Li Nian deeply, thinking that his journey might not be as easy as he said.

Li Nian pretended not to notice the meaning in her eyes and went straight to the point, saying, "This is the situation. Mr. Hiratsuka, can you please turn a blind eye to my affairs in the future?"

"…So you don't want to tell anyone but me on purpose." Mr. Hiratsuka looked at him with a half-smile.

"exactly."

Li Nian nodded.

He might have to skip classes more often in the future, and he would definitely have to rely on his homeroom teacher, Ms. Hiratsuka, so he thought about telling her the truth. It wasn't that he wanted to take advantage of her, but as he said, he just wanted her to turn a blind eye and let it go, and just give him a leave of absence or something.

He thought that Hiratsuka-sensei would simply agree, but Hiratsuka-sensei sneered and asked.

"What if I say no?"

Li Nian was stunned, then shook his head.

“…Then there’s nothing I can do.”

"Not necessarily?" Hiratsuka-sensei said meaningfully, "You don't have the ability to force people to change their minds, like you did just now?"

Was she holding a grudge against me for sealing her mouth with my spiritual power? Li Nian shook her head.

"You were the one who almost shouted... Normally I wouldn't resort to any tricks. I wouldn't do that. Do you think I'm such a disrespectful person?"

"Yeah~~~~" Teacher Hiratsuka nodded heavily and stretched out his voice.

The longer she communicated with this boy, the more she could feel that his words and actions lacked the kind of awe that a student has for a teacher. Even though he used respectful titles, Teacher Hiratsuka could feel that Li Nian was not at all restrained in front of her.

This was a change that had occurred since the spiritual disaster began. From that time on, this boy became increasingly difficult to understand.

Li Nian smiled bitterly in silence.

As Mr. Hiratsuka said, Li Nian does have the means to control people's minds, such as dispersing idlers. Of course, there are many similar techniques in his skill tree that can interfere with people's minds. He has learned some of them.

But he certainly had no intention of using it indiscriminately. It was not only a form of restraint, but also he vaguely understood that such behavior was an evil path and violated the principles of being a human being.

But he was too lazy to explain here.

"That's true. It did cause you some trouble. Just pretend I never said that."

Anyway, Mr. Hiratsuka knows the situation, so just don't nag him. As for skipping classes or asking for leave, it doesn't matter. Think about it, there is also a computer programmer Ryunosuke Kosaka who stays in his room all day in Sakurasou. Li Nian remembers that according to the school system, even someone like that can graduate smoothly if he can ensure that he attends enough classes and gets passing grades.

Li Nian bowed slightly and made a gesture to leave.

"Wait a minute, I was just joking." Hiratsuka-sensei suddenly burst into laughter. "Look at you, silly kid, you took it seriously."

"Ah?" Li Nian looked back blankly.

"It's enough to know you don't mean that." Mr. Hiratsuka waved his hand, feeling somewhat relieved.

She deliberately made things difficult for Li Nian, with a tentative intention, wanting to see if this boy had gone astray in his life after the death of his parents. When she saw that Li Nian simply gave up, she realized that she was worrying too much.

"There are reasons for this. If this happens again, I can let you go." She changed her previous words and simply agreed to Li Nian: "But before that, I have a question for you."

"You ask."

"Are you still going to study?"

Li Nian was a little confused at first, but soon he realized that she was asking him about his future plans, so he answered with a smile.

"Yes, I plan to study. I plan to study hard and get into a university."

"As long as you still want to study, you are still my student. You must remember this." Mr. Hiratsuka said seriously.

Li Nian was puzzled.

"Of course."

Chapter 91: Indifferent to Life and Death...

weekend.

In the afternoon, Li Nian came back from work and sat at the computer desk in her room and started typing.

Wu Geng said that she was almost done revising the manuscript and should be able to finish it over the weekend. Li Nian guessed that she would go to see those people she mentioned to show it to school tomorrow. Thinking of his promise to go with her and to show the manuscript to others together, he decided not to break the contract and decided to rush to finish the beginning part today.

This may sound a bit far-fetched, because even if it is just the beginning, the workload is about 30,000 words, which generally cannot be completed in one day.

But Li Nian already had a draft in mind, and his ideas for the opening part were clear. In particular, he was able to put aside distracting thoughts, and was able to concentrate and be serious. He immediately turned into a human typing machine, typing very fast, and was completing the manuscript at a speed of 5k per hour. It was not a difficult task for him to finish the beginning if he was given an afternoon and an evening.

Suddenly the phone vibrates.

Li Nian stopped typing on the keyboard and easily pulled himself out of his concentrated state. He took out his cell phone and saw that it was a text message alert. He glanced at the front part of the display and saw that there was an incoming payment.

Li Nian was stunned for a moment, then he thought about it and realized that it was the reward for handling the spiritual disaster.

Thinking that the money had finally arrived on his card after a few days’ delay, he immediately opened the text message to confirm the amount.

"Let me see... there are more than 120,000?!"

When Li Nian saw such a large amount, he was shocked and thought he might have added an extra zero. But after confirming it again and again and counting it carefully, he found that he was not wrong and it was indeed that much.

This immediately made Li Nian happy.

His monthly expenses were less than 100,000 yuan, and his hourly wage from part-time jobs was only over 1,000 yuan, which was enough to maintain a balance between income and expenditure, and he didn't touch his savings. Now, dealing with a spiritual disaster brought him an income that was equivalent to the income from last month's work, so how could he not be happy?

Soon the phone rang again, and it showed that it was Miss Jinguji calling, so Li Nian quickly answered it.

She first confirmed with Li Nian whether he had received any payment, and received a positive answer. Perhaps because he could hear that Li Nian was in a good mood, Jinguji said "congratulations" and reminded him to remember to get receipts for any expenses, as some expenses could be reimbursed with receipts.

Every penny counted was money, and Li Nian became happier and happier as he listened. Although it sounds pathetic to say this, it seems that no one in this world can resist money. Money is the most important thing in life and a basic resource. For everyone, getting their salary is probably one of the happiest events in a month, and Li Nian is no exception.

Although he was happy, Li Nian soon remembered his business. He took this opportunity to ask Jinguji about his future work arrangements and the impact of his assessment on his future, and received a smiling reply from him.

"Lord Tianruo said that Mr. Li's performance in the assessment was excellent. The Yin-Yang Department really needs the help of talents like you. If you are willing, we will certainly give Mr. Li a new commission."

When Li Nian heard this, he knew that the translation meant: "Your ability has been recognized, and more things will be assigned to you in the future." He immediately felt that his financial future was secure, and answered yes without thinking.

"That's good. I hope you keep your phone on 24 hours a day so that the staff can contact you."

"clear."

After hanging up the phone, Li Nian was happy for a long time. He stopped typing and stood up to pace around the room.

Anyway, looking at the income from this spiritual disaster, and then calculating the commissions that can be received in the future, if he can get this reward every time, the expected income in a month is estimated to be far beyond his expectations. It seems that the career of exorcist is really promising...

By the way, the examiner's last name was Tian Ruo? He even addressed me respectfully as "Sir". He seemed to be an important person. Was my attitude a bit disrespectful? Forget it. We are just passing by. It's none of my business.

As he was having fun, Li Nian's heart slowly calmed down. Thinking about it thoroughly, he suddenly realized that these were all natural developments.

The process of his eliminating the spiritual disaster may sound simple, but if someone else were to handle it, it might not be so easy.

Once the big tree is completely eroded by spiritual energy, it will turn into a demon-like existence. Just imagine the branches that grow as thick as thighs. If an ordinary person gets close to it, he will probably be smashed into a mess. It will definitely be a huge threat to the exorcist.

Moreover, the tree grew on a spiritual vein node that was overflowing with spiritual energy. It had been constantly replenished and nourished by spiritual energy, which showed that it had a tenacious vitality. Li Nian saw through this at the time and decisively summoned out the huge flaming sword. He split it in half at once before it took shape. It seemed like a rough method, but in fact it was the simplest, most convenient and safest method.

For this kind of enemy, the best way is to kill it with one move, but the less skilled exorcists may not be able to control the large amount of spiritual power like him. If they cannot grasp the accurate timing and provide enough firepower, it is impossible to kill the tree monster cleanly. If they cannot kill it, even if they cause great damage, if they give it ten seconds to recover, the tree monster will definitely become lively again under the nourishment of spiritual energy.

Generally speaking, that is actually a very tough opponent. It can be seen that the man named Tian Ruo has some sinister intentions. He said that he came to test Li Nian because he was curious about whether he killed Kidomaru. With the idea of ​​confirming his strength, he deliberately chose this kind of spiritual disaster for Li Nian to do it.

Considering the hassle and risks that an ordinary exorcist would have to go through in dealing with this spiritual disaster, a reward of hundreds of thousands is really nothing. This is still relatively simple. Li Nian thought of the battle with Kidomaru and Nurarihyon.

Compared to fighting a being with human-level intelligence, dealing with a brainless tree that has just been demonized is nothing...

"It all comes down to a question of strength..."

Although he had easily resolved a spiritual disaster and received the reward, Li Nian's mind was divergent and he was not so optimistic when thinking about the long term.

Fighting is a matter of life and death. He has been defeated twice, that is, died twice, and he does not have the confidence that he will not fall into a ditch and die in any situation in the future.

Li Nian suddenly felt that his end would probably not be a good one... Looking at the text message on his phone, he thought that this person would just be enough money to buy him a better coffin, and he chuckled again.

Well, why buy a coffin? What's the point of dying? Just let your body rest in the mountains. It would be more ceremonial to burn it to ashes and scatter them in the sea.

"I'm quite interested in thinking about my afterlife. I've become a psychopath."

Li Nian muttered to himself, and as the excitement wore off, he slumped back into his chair and looked out the window. This room faced the courtyard, and outside the sun was shining, birds were singing, and flowers were blooming. The scenery was beautiful and peaceful, and the world seemed so beautiful.

"...But since when did I start to become indifferent to life and death?" Li Nian murmured to himself.

Obviously, this is what my past self cared about the most. At this moment, I would think about the philosophical questions between life and death, and understand that there was a real threat to my life waiting for me - but I still didn't feel nervous.

It may be because I don’t have a real sense of being alive.

Even after so much time had passed and she had met so many people, that illusory sense of distance was still hard to dispel. Li Nian had the illusion that she had no connection with anyone.

Since he came to this world, he has been living alone, and he only needs to be responsible for himself. This means that a person is helpless, but on the other hand, he is also free from worries...

Feeling a little lonely.

"…Tsk, how can I ever criticize Gogen-san for being so stuffy? What the hell am I thinking about?"

There is nothing to worry about. What if you don't have a good ending? The many dangers and sufferings that can be expected are just a part of everyone's life. Don't care about life and death. Just fight if you don't agree.

Li Nian smiled coldly, sweeping away the loneliness in his heart, and glanced at the time. It was just time for dinner. He decided that now that he had received his first salary as an exorcist, he should get himself some delicious food and drinks to reward himself.

He should also call Isayama, because he was able to become an exorcist through her connections, and it can be said that she was the one who did it all, so he should treat her to a meal when he gets his first salary.

By the way, I should call everyone at Sakurasou...

Li Nian did what he thought and stood up to find Kanda to discuss it. Just as he went out, he heard a car horn outside. He didn't take it seriously at first, but as if in response, he heard hurried footsteps and the shouting of Senior Kamiigusa upstairs.

"Come on, come on!"

A mass of object rolled down from the second floor in a hurry. Shang Jingcao saw Li Nian standing at the door with a puzzled look on his face and shouted at him.

"What are you still standing there for, you newbie? Come and help me!"

As she spoke she ran out of the entrance.

"..."

Li Nian always felt that nothing good would happen if he got involved with her, and he didn't want to help at all. However, he still walked to the entrance and looked outside in confusion, and saw a truck parked right in front of the door.

It's another moving company car.

"... Unlike Qingshan? He just moved here without any warning or notice?"

Chapter 92 Qingshan moves in

Li Nian was puzzled and felt something was wrong.

The name of this moving company seems familiar to me. Have I seen it somewhere before? Where have I seen it before?
