People are in the ark, but the system is chosen below

As he spoke, Thorn grabbed the back of Jijing's collar and planned to drag Jijing away from here.

"BOOM!"

Before Thorn could finish his words, an explosion was heard far away in Rhodes Island.

Thorn, who was dragging Jijie, suddenly changed his expression and stopped moving.

After thinking for a while, he quickly dragged Jijing back, pulled out the chair in front of Li Xiuyuan and sat down.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Li Xiuyuan, we may have to trouble you for a while. Someone will come to ask you about this later. Please testify that I have been with you the whole time and have done nothing wrong, okay?"

"Did you cause this explosion?"

It was obvious that Li Xiuyuan had definitely noticed the explosion. Considering Thorn's current performance, only a fool could guess that it was related to the guy in front of him.

"It wasn't me."

Faced with Li Xiuyuan's question, Ji Ci denied it.

If it wasn't you, then who did it?

Li Xiuyuan at this moment Belike:O (OO)O.

I understand.

It was Sun Xiaochuan who did it.

"To be more precise, it was the experimental product itself that did it."

Familiar direction, familiar explosion sounded that moment, Thorn had already made his own judgment, it must be an explosion of new reagents in the laboratory.

"Because this product itself is not very stable, there is a risk of explosion at any time.

I had been observing it for three days and there were no problems. I thought it was gradually stabilizing, but I didn't expect it to explode as soon as I left.

Of course, in return, this afternoon's tea is on me."

Normally speaking, it's already past lunchtime at this point, so it can only be considered afternoon.

But Li Xiuyuan had breakfast too late and was not hungry at noon, so he chose to have a cup of milk tea and skip lunch for dinner.

Li Xiuyuan's current lifestyle is extremely irregular.

If he was at Chen Huijie's house, this wouldn't have happened, because Chen Huijie would take care of Li Xiuyuan, but now that no one is taking care of him, all his bad habits are exposed at once.

"Are you...bribing me?"

Li Xiuyuan tilted his head.

What do you mean? Do I look like someone who could be bought off for a small profit?

Damn it, they've got me...under their thumb!

Really good at judging people!

"If I don't do this, I'll have to spend time writing a 1,000-word review report, report the cause of the problem to Krosier, and my experimental funds will be deducted.

If you're wondering what they might be doing to check the surveillance footage, don't worry. In my lab, the explosion damaged over a dozen cameras, and repairing them each time takes a lot of work. So, Lucille simply moved all the ship's cables and pipes out of my lab, keeping only the necessary ones.

"Even so, didn't the explosion still happen in your laboratory?"

"But I wasn't there, so it's not entirely my fault."

"You are quite honest..."

"Alas, there is no love anymore. Before, you always came to me to help you out, but now you turn around and look for someone else."

Jijing on the other side was not polite either. He pulled out a chair and sat down with the fish in one hand, which meant that Jici would treat Li Xiuyuan as well as himself.

"You're not very good. It's happened too many times."

Now when others hear you say that you and I have always been together, they basically think that you are covering for me.

Also, when you recently tried to sneak into the archives room and secretly write the comment "He is a handsome man rarely seen in a century" in your objective resume, weren't you caught on the spot by the HR department members?

I doubt your credibility with anyone else is close to zero right now.”

"What do you mean by secretly? This is open and aboveboard, okay?

If I don't include my objective resume, it would be like ignoring my best and brightest qualities!"

Jijing protested.

If something is already a fact, can it be called a secret change?

That's a problem with the person who entered the information in the HR department. They failed to clearly and objectively point out his strengths! The most important thing is, is it a little bit good?

"If you keep bragging, no one will think you're really a handsome guy, even if you really are."

Seeing this, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but speak.

Putting too much emphasis on something will not make others believe that what you said is true.

Even if that thing is really true.

"Oh? So, you really think I'm a handsome guy, right?"

But it was obvious that Jijing only heard the second half of Li Xiuyuan's words.

“…Is that so?”

Li Xiuyuan hesitated for a moment, but still said it against his inner thoughts.

This guy...how come he's more confident than me?

Unbelievable, unbelievable!

"right!

What about this fish I just caught?"

After going around in circles, Jijing still didn't forget the scales he had just caught.

"If you take a picture and post it online and ask what your scale is like, I'd say it's just like this, not very good.

But in reality, I still say, this is it, not good enough."

Li Xiuyuan’s main focus is on being consistent in both appearance and reality.

“Oh, you’re so stubborn.

When he saw the scales I caught, which were so long and big, he might have been extremely jealous, but he still stubbornly said no.

Alas...Alas.

I understand. I understand everything.

But since you just admitted that I'm a rare handsome guy, it doesn't matter if you don't admit it!"

"If you think this silly bird is too noisy, you can give him some chips to fill his mouth.

Of course, the cost of the fries is still included in the afternoon tea I treat you to this time.”

The Thorn on the other side said mercilessly, as if for the little red-haired Liberi in front of him, some French fries did have an unimaginable attraction.

"Excuse me for a moment."

At this time, a Rhodes Island operator came over to the restaurant and spoke to the three people present.

"This one of yours is black. Do you want to sell it?"

The man stared at the fish in Jijing's hand, his eyes revealing desire.

However, Li Xiuyuan didn't notice this at all. His brain circuits connected automatically and he complained in surprise.

"Are you guys on the Rhodes Island ship doing human trafficking so openly?"

Thorn: "?"

Thanks, I was offended.

"What are you talking about? I want this scale, what are you thinking about?"

The Rhodes Island operator was also very surprised when he heard Li Xiuyuan's words.

"Look at this scale, how long and big it is!

Tsk tsk tsk, if I could catch one like this, I would definitely stuff it and put it next to my fishing rod at home."

Catching this kind of fish is every fisherman’s dream!

"Ah, is that so? Sorry, I heard that Casimir is still secretly involved in human trafficking, with slave knights and the like, so I'm thinking of quitting right now."

Realizing that he seemed to have said something wrong, Li Xiuyuan hurriedly explained.

However, in Jijing, the deal was done very quickly.

“Is it really that difficult to catch a scale like this?”

Looking at the operator carrying the scale back with a satisfied look on his face, Li Xiuyuan also became a little curious.

After all, he had never actually done anything before he traveled through time.

After crossing, the small stream I encountered was filled with only small fish and shrimps.

"Oh, that doesn't make sense... Thorn shouldn't have to stay in the lab tomorrow, right?

So, Li Xiuyuan, are you free tomorrow? Let's go scale fishing together?

You have to try it yourself to understand this kind of thing."

"Then... give it a try?"

……

……

……

In one of the mobile cities of Casimir, a somewhat unique tavern is located in a corner of the city.

The exterior walls are made of neatly arranged bricks with a slightly rough texture, while the floor is paved with polished wooden floors. In the middle, guests are greeted by a spacious but slightly dim hall. The ceiling is constructed of crisscrossing thick wooden beams, on which hang several oil lamps emitting dim light. The flickering lights cast mottled shadows on the walls and the floor. On the other side of the bar made of thick, long wooden boards, there is a large, upright wooden board with various portraits nailed on it. Under each portrait, there is a string of numbers. Of course, there are not only portraits, but also some densely packed texts, posted on it like a notice or composition.

This is the Bounty Hunter Association. Hung on the wooden board are wanted criminals and commissions from nearby places.

Any criminal that the Casimir police have not caught yet will be issued a corresponding wanted notice, attracting a large number of bounty hunters.

In this extravagant and decadent country, there are many people pursuing wealth.

However, there are also criminals who want to pursue wealth together.

To this end, the Bounty Hunters Association was born as a link between the Casimir police and bounty hunters.

In essence, it provides a bridge for people in these gray areas to get money safely, and it is also an intermediary organization that allows the wanted rewards issued by the police to be more effectively and widely disseminated.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the wooden door of the tavern was pushed open.

No, to be more precise, it was taken apart.

"Sorry, the door here is too fragile.

I didn’t expect it to break down so suddenly.”

The silver-haired girl with a giant sword on her back leaned the door, which had become a wooden board, against the door frame again. She had just pushed the door open and walked in, but she didn't expect the door to fall off the door frame.

It was obvious that it was impossible to restore the removed door just by leaning on it. Not long after it was put back up, the wooden board fell hard to the ground again.

However, in this situation, the other bounty hunters present did not take any action at all.

just like……

It was as if he was intimidated by the girl in front of him.

"Hey, hey, hey, this guy, could it be that guy?"

"Giant sword, silver hair, black and blue clothes, it does look like it, right?"

The other bounty hunters in the guild were whispering to each other, but the girl pretended not to hear and walked straight to the wooden board.

"New bounty..."

The white-haired hunter carrying a huge sword tore off the bounty poster on the wooden board.

It clearly stated that a reward of 10000000 marks would be offered to anyone who broke the bow.

Looking at the large portrait above, the white-haired hunter tilted his head.
