Chapter 21 Plan

After all, they have been playmates for so many years. Sophia saw Lin En coming over and quickly guessed what his real purpose was. After she rubbed Lin En's head with her height advantage, she asked Lin En to stay and share dinner with her later.

Sophia had wanted to take care of Lin En in this way before, but he always insisted that self-reliance was a good virtue of a gentleman, which was very unpleasant for a while.

Lin En, who came with the purpose of eating for free, naturally agreed happily.

The integration of soul memory after crossing made Lin En much more worldly-wise, and the embarrassment and shame brought by the self-esteem of a young man was quickly overcome by him. In this economic downturn, the bottom line of the poor can be pulled very low. When you have to squeeze seven or eight people together in a small place to rest like a chicken in a cage, emphasizing dignity will become a joke.

As far as Lin En knows.

In the lower city area, which continues to go out from Squirrel Street, there have been many women who have fallen from the middle city or fled from the countryside in the past two months. Most of them are controlled by gangs, and everyone knows what kind of business they do.

Besides, Sophia did not mean to look down on or be annoyed with herself.

On the contrary, this experienced street elder sister tried very hard to take care of the self-esteem of the son of a bankrupt businessman. She was rough but delicate, and never said to give or free, but just verbally agreed that Lin En would pay her back after making money. She didn't even keep a receipt. If Lin En wanted to default on the debt, Sophia would be feeding an ungrateful wolf.

Fortunately.

Whether it was before or after the crossing, Lin En was not the kind of conscienceless dog. It is true that consciencelessness can live better and earn more, but people without morality are often the first choice to be collectively operated on to quell public anger. Albion shot many big businessmen who were courting death for economic crimes during the protracted war.

[Good Luck Bar] has its own kitchen, and the maids can deduct some food expenses and make some food for themselves.

It may not taste good, but at least it is cheaper than the street vendors outside.

Sophia quickly brought two large pieces of rye bread with a layer of butter on it, a bowl of meat stew, and took care of Lin En to secretly get a glass of lemonade from the bar.

This is the dinner for the two of them today.

There were not many customers in the bar yet. Sophia greeted a female worker and slipped to the back door steps with Lin En. Being naturally held by the big sister's hand, Lin En couldn't help but sigh in his heart, how could this scene be so similar to when they were young and didn't sit at the table properly to eat.

Breaking the rye bread and dipping it in the stew juice, Lin En chewed it slowly.

Although the taste of this dinner was not as good as the lunch at noon, which cost at least 20 pence, he ate it very happily, and it seemed like he was competing with Sophia to grab the stewed lamb with a spoon.

The big sister looked at Lin En's head that was swallowing, and she subconsciously wanted to reach out several times, but she gave up when she saw her greasy hands. She would be too distressed if she ruined the neat and smooth platinum hair. Sofia sat next to Lin En, pushing the meat in the meat stew to him from time to time without leaving any trace, and slowly spoke.

"... So, Lin En, are you going to work in the [Suppression Bureau] in the future?"

"There is no accurate information yet."

"So you want to?" Sofia couldn't help but worry. If the degree of danger of choosing to make a living on the street is to fight with wild dogs with bare hands, then involving Feifan becomes fighting with a dragon.

"Sophia, look at me..." Lin En swallowed a mouthful of stew and showed his thin arms that had never done heavy work. The whiteness and tenderness made Sofia couldn't help but curl her lips in envy. "One day, do you want to see me fighting with others in Squirrel Street with a machete and an axe?"

The big sister shook her head immediately. Lin En was the son of a kind gentleman. She swore on herself that she didn't want to see him really fall to that level.

"You can also apply for a lecturer position, such as weekend children's school or night school. I know that many are recruiting lecturers. Although you didn't have time to go to college, isn't it easy to teach those idiots who can't even write their own names?"

'Should I tell you that if I don't go to the [Suppression Bureau], a [Demon] who may be thinking of me will take my life at any time? '

Can Lin En say it?

Whether it's because Sofia takes care of me so much, or because I can still share dinner with her with dignity, I won't tell her about the extraordinary danger I am facing. That damn thing can disembowel five people in one night and finally hide easily. Lin En's mind is very clear.

If I mention it to Sofia, I'm afraid the big sister will not sit idly by.

I have already accepted help to settle down and eat for free, and then I bring her deadly danger. Is he still a human being? !

"If I can work part-time in the future, I will certainly not miss it. It's just that I finally got this opportunity, which others can't even ask for. If I don't seize it, I don't know when I can become a figure like my father." Lin En followed Sophia's words and mentioned one of the things she most looked forward to.

In Sophia's view, Lin En was only in trouble temporarily, and he would return to his position sooner or later.

Of course, it would be better if it could be sooner, right?

"Hmm?" Sophia suddenly changed her eyes and looked at the serious Lin En strangely.

Lin En couldn't help but feel a little nervous. What did he say wrong?

"Lin En has grown up! He has matured! This is the confidence that a gentleman should have!" Sophia was suddenly overjoyed, and she used her elbow to pull Lin En into her arms and rubbed her chest hard. Sophia saw Lin En's confident and serious attitude again after such a long time, and she was very happy.

"Soup! Soup! Don't spill it!" Lin En, who was caught off guard, almost knocked over the meat stew on the steps. He hadn't filled his stomach yet, so he was so enthusiastic. Can't he wait until he was full?

"Since you have decided to join the [Suppression Bureau], just go ahead and do it. I will just say hello to the Youth Gang for you and let them exempt your taxes."

Of course, you have to pay taxes when working in the gang. How much you can keep depends on your share and status.

Lin En's previous work was some, uh... friendly citizens helped the owner of the house move things when he was not at home. The things moved were valuable and easy to carry. Generally, they would be very clean after moving, that is, nothing was left. In short, taxes must be paid, and with Sofia's care, Lin En still does the easy job of looking out. In any case, if the taxes are cut off, Lin En will not be able to continue to make a living on the streets.

The Squirrel Street Youth Gang is a street territory that the city compromised to give to a group of unfortunate teenagers. This is much more practical than those shitty Poor Relief Acts.

"Thank you."

Four people died suddenly in the Youth Gang, all of which were related to him. Lin En didn't think the little devils would dare to find him, but he still had to say thank you, which meant that he remembered it in his heart.

It's good to get out of it. There is no future in this world to be in the gang.

If he continues to hang out in the gang, Lin En feels that his future will either be death in a fight or be taken away by the police as a success. Especially when a certain police officer has already made a feud with him, his future situation is definitely not optimistic. If you want to change your destiny, you can only become extraordinary and become a member of the system.

Of course, Lin En can also choose to escape from this [Steam City], but that is much more dangerous than when he went to Beijing with only 200 yuan in his pocket.
