"Yes."
Xu Ning nodded and looked at the two of them in confusion. He had a feeling that something was wrong with the two of them.
Chen Zhong and Yi Guang's expressions were solemn. Then, Chen Zhong continued, "During the physical examination, the officials were actually pulling some people out. We even heard rumors that you were chosen."
"Huh? I've been chosen? And they're picking people?"
Xu Ning was a little dumbfounded. What were they saying?
Fortunately, Chen Zhong did not keep him in suspense. Immediately, he answered, "Because of the supernatural incident, those things on TV were all true. They weren't lying."
"What do you mean?"
Xu Ning vaguely guessed something, but he did not say it out loud.
Chen Zhong and Yi Guang smiled bitterly. "We can't say too much. We can only tell you that the world has changed, literally."
"In order to cope with the changes in the world, the authorities have been looking for a specific person. In short, someone will look for you soon. This may be an opportunity. Of course, if you don't want to participate, it's fine as long as you sign a confidentiality agreement."
After Chen Zhong finished speaking, Yi Guang added seriously, "About this, don't mention it to anyone! Understand?"
Xu Ning nodded.
The two roommates gently patted his shoulder and then climbed into bed to catch up on sleep.
Only Xu Ning was wide awake, thinking.
If his judgment was right, the government should be picking people to deal with the supernatural incidents, and his two roommates should be people from the organization.
"They really hide their secrets well."
Xu Ning looked at the two people on the bed and smiled. He still had his own plans in his heart.
...
After the afternoon class ended, Xu Ning, Chen Zhong, and Yi Guang returned to the dormitory with a dispirited look after staying up all night.
Xu Ning thought about it, and finally decided to call his mother to tell her that he did not plan on staying in the dormitory any longer.
Beep beep beep beep!
"What's my son doing?"
A mature woman's flirtatious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Can't I call you just because I want to?"
Although he knew that his mother could not see it, Xu Ning could not help but roll his eyes.
"Come on, you little bastard. You wouldn't call me for nothing. Tell me, what are you doing?"
The moment his tail perked, immediately knew what he was up to. Qu Yunrong knew exactly what kind of son she had.
"It's nothing much. I'm just moving out of the dormitory. I just wanted to let you know so that you wouldn't beat me up when you find out."
Although Xu Ning's tone was very calm, Qu Yunrong still frowned and asked, "Why are you moving? Did you quarrel with your roommate?"
"No, you know that I'm working part-time, so it's more convenient for me to move out to my own place. So that when I come home late, I wouldn't be locked out of my own house."
"..."
After he said this, the other end of the phone fell silent.
A moment later, Qu Yunrong sighed, "Okay, then you take care of yourself."
"Okay, then I'll hang up."
"Okay."
After getting a response, Xu Ning hung up the phone.
Ever since his mother and father separated, the three of them had less and less contact.
Xu Ning could feel that his parents were deliberately avoiding him. Although he did not know why, he had this feeling.
Ding Dong.
Just as he was thinking, a notification sounded.
Xu Ning looked at his phone and saw that it was from his mother.
[Transferred 500,000 yuan.]
"What the f*ck?"
Looking at the amount of money that his mother transferred to him, Xu Ning was completely dumbfounded.
He looked at the number on his phone and counted carefully, "10,000 yuan...100,000 yuan!"
"F*cking hell, 500,000 yuan? My mother isn't laundering money, is she?"
Xu Ning panicked. In his memory, although his family lived in the city, they were not very wealthy!
Just as he was panicking, his mother sent him another message.
[Use this money without worry. Your parents have recently made a small fortune. If it's not enough, you can ask me again. Alright, I'm going to get back to work.]
???
At this moment, only a bunch of question marks could express his current mood.
[Made a small fortune? 500,000 yuan? You call that a small fortune?]
Xu Ning was dumbfounded. His family had actually become rich...
However, when he sent a bunch of messages, Qu Yunrong did not reply to him. She probably really went to work.
After thinking for a long time, Xu Ning still accepted the money. After all, he really needed the money now.
Moreover, his mother was a little sloppy, but she was still reliable. Accepting the money was definitely not a problem.
After informing his two roommates, he went to the real estate agency alone.
Since he had 500,000 yuan, he could just buy a house with 300,000 yuan!
After talking to the agent, he found a house. After looking at the house, he was satisfied and decided to buy it.
This action made the agent very happy. He had been an agent for many years, but he had never met a client who bought a house with such a large sum of money immediately.
Now that he had settled the house, all he needed to do was move his things from the dormitory.
Xu Ning was in an extremely happy mood. She walked on the road at night and hummed softly.
...
Suddenly, the streetlights at the side started to flicker rapidly.
The system's voice sounded.
[Ding! Evil spirit detected. The target has been assessed as a level one demon ghost.]
As soon as the voice finished speaking, Xu Ning narrowed his eyes and started to look around.
Suddenly, his gaze focused. In front of him, there was a floating figure.
The figure noticed Xu Ning's gaze and smiled at him.
One of her lips split open and extended to her ear. A slop of blood gushed out from her mouth and dripped onto the ground...
Even though he was still some distance away, Xu Ning could still smell the strong smell of blood.
[Ding! Level one ghost, evil thought value: 30!]
'This evil thought value is lower than the previous one.'
Xu Ning was not afraid of the ghost's horrifying manipulation. Instead, he looked at her with interest, as if he was watching an actor, waiting for her performance.
"..."
He was just staring at the demon, causing the situation to have an air of awkwardness. The ghost had just been standing still for awhile, and even floated in front of Xu Ning. However, Xu Ning did not care about it, which made her a little confused.
She asked in confusion, "Am I not scary?"
Hearing this, Xu Ning nodded and said indifferently, "Scary. Look at the blood on the ground. It's scary."
"Hey, hey, hey, you don't look like you're scared. Even if you're pretending, can you please be more professional?"
The ghost looked at Xu Ning's cold expression and ridiculed him crazily.
She knew that this guy did not feel anything at all.
