"Captain Qin, I really can't help you this time."

The dean put his hands on the desk, not knowing how to refuse the other party.

The main thing is that this exploration team was sent by the higher authorities.

As the director of Lingyang County Hospital, I have to support the team's work when necessary.

"We do have limited medicine. The last time we sold it to you, the hospital was a little short of it in the last few days."

"Especially now it's winter, more people are sick."

As the dean, he always has to consider the safety of the people.

Hearing this, Captain Qin smiled.

"It doesn't matter. I'll look for other ways."

Seeing that the other party did not make things difficult for him, the dean handed the other party the prepared phone number.

"Our neighboring county is Huashou County. You can go and have a look. I have talked to the director of their county hospital and I can give you some."

Huashou County is slightly richer than their Lingyang County.

"Thank you, Dean!"

Since he had been rejected, Qin Yue certainly could not continue to stay in the office.

After thanking the dean, he got up and left.

When he opened the office door, he saw An Ning bending over and looking up at him.

He knew that his eavesdropping behavior had been discovered, but he didn't feel embarrassed.

Then he signaled Qin Yue to lower his head.

As if possessed by some mysterious force, Qin Yue lowered his head and even bent his waist in cooperation.

"I can help you, how can you thank me?"

"..."

What do you mean?

Qin Yue looked at the girl with confusion on his face.

An Ning raised her chin, and the meaning was obvious: there was something wrong with the dean.

Qin Yue didn't turn around, but as long as An Ning noticed something, something must be wrong.

"what do you want?"

"Lend me some money. I know you don't have much. It doesn't have to be too much. Twenty dollars will be fine."

She wanted to make a simple compass herself. Twenty yuan was not enough, but at least it would sustain her.

How can you work without tools?

Compass, coins and nothing else.

I can only rely on calculations.

She is the least accurate in fortune-telling.

So until now, Qin Yue has not been counted.

I’m afraid that the calculation will be inaccurate and will disrupt my judgment.

So I wanted to make a compass and bought a string of copper coins.

"it is good."

He agreed very readily.

Qin Yue turned sideways and let the girl enter the office.

An Ning straightened up and walked in with small steps.

Then, fearing that his judgment was wrong, he glanced at the dean himself.

I saw that the other person did have some evil energy, although not much, but it was all concentrated in his face.

It’s not difficult to find out.

"Dean, have you...or your family been having strange things happen recently, or have you had bad luck? Or is someone sick? The kind that cannot be cured?"

Hearing An Ning's question, the dean was stunned for a while, but finally waved his hand with a cold face.

"Don't talk nonsense. Nothing happened to us, Captain Qin. If everything is ok, I'll go to work first."

The dean's tone was a bit aggressive and he even started to chase people away.

Seeing this, Qin Yue pulled An Ning's arm, pulled her into his arms, and left the office.

On the way, An Ning kept muttering to herself.

"Why doesn't he admit it? Look at his droopy eyes and slightly protruding cheekbones. He has deviated from his original appearance."

What did it look like originally?

Although Qin Yue didn't ask, he recalled the scene when he first met the dean.

When we first met, the dean was very amiable. He asked to buy antibiotics and all the more expensive medicines, and the other party agreed immediately.

Comparing it to now, it seems that the appearance is indeed a little different.

"Really?"

"Could it be fake? I can't lie to you just for your twenty dollars!"

This kind of acquired facial features are probably caused by problems with the residence.

But An Ning couldn't say anything.

"Forget it, since he doesn't care, we shouldn't meddle in his business."

Some things require your own willingness.

What else can you do if you don’t want to do it no matter what others say?

However, Qin Yue still took out twenty yuan from his pocket.

"Buy whatever you want. I've given you all my salary this month, so spend it sparingly."

"what?"

An Ning looked down at the money in her hand, and her face turned a little red.

What do you mean I gave you all this month’s salary?

Why is this so ambiguous?

"Thank you. Don't worry, I will return the money to you."

Hearing that the little girl wanted to pay him back, Qin Yue smiled.

"How do you pay it back? Are you going to pay it back with your body?"

"Qin Yueyue! You big pervert!"

An Ning stretched out her hand and punched the man.

But the other party dodged with a smile.

The two of them ran slowly, one in front and one behind.

Occasionally, Qin Yue would say a few words to tease the girl.

The girl was so shy that her hair stood on end.

Until the two of them came to the hardware store.

This is the only hardware store in the county.

It’s not really appropriate to call it a hardware store, it’s just a grocery store that sells everything.

Various farming tools, as well as screws and buttons.

As long as it is something you can use in your daily life, you can buy it all here.

The two walked into the store and immediately felt very depressed.

The room was too small, the light was very dark, and it was extremely uncomfortable.

An Ning didn't think too much about it. He called the boss and told him a few things he needed.

"Boss, do you have all the things I mentioned?"

"Yes, yes! I'll find it for you right away."

After about ten minutes, the boss came out from the inner room holding a cloth bag containing the materials An Ning needed to make a compass.

"Take a look and see if these are the ones. If not, I'll look for them for you."

The boss is very enthusiastic and patient.

An Ning opened the cloth bag and examined it carefully for a long time, then nodded.

"Boss, settle the account."

"Fifteen dollars in total!"

When An Ning heard that it would cost fifteen dollars, her face twitched.

It's too expensive! It's only twenty dollars in total, and I spent fifteen dollars on these things.

She hasn't bought any copper coins yet.

Alas... a penny can make a hero fall.

After giving the money to the boss, An Ning walked out carrying the cloth bag.

He muttered as he walked.

Where to find copper coins?

Copper coins are old items and hard to buy.

She was not familiar with Lingyang County, so naturally she didn't know where to buy it.

But Qin Zhenyue has been in Lingyang County for three months and is very familiar with the place.

When he heard the little girl wanted to buy copper coins, he quickly walked to her side.

Pointing to the northwest direction of the two people.

“See that alley?”

Following the direction of the other person's finger, An Ning nodded.

“Go to the end of the alley and turn north. There is a recycling station at the end. Generally, people sell their unwanted items there.

If you really want to see a string of copper coins, you can go and have a look.”

Recycle Bin?

Is there such a place in Lingyang County?

"Okay, let's go take a look."

So the two of them walked towards the alley in the northwest corner.

At the end of the alley, turn north.

Walk to the end and you will arrive at the recycling bin.

The recycling station is not big, and the yard is filled with various items.

They are everywhere, with no place to step.

But you can see a person squatting in the middle, sorting items in the yard.
