Chapter 83 No Evidence
Early in the morning, Tang Zijun, unusually, sat at the dining table with dark circles under his eyes. Across from him, Su Siyao and Tang Cao looked at Tang Zijun with some curiosity.
Neither of them had ever seen Tang Zijun look like this before.
In the eyes of the two girls, Tang Zijun has always given off a sunny, gentle, and enthusiastic feeling.
But now, Tang Zijun seems like a corporate slave who works overtime until dawn, giving people a sense of listlessness and decadence.
"Brother Tang, are you... are you alright?" Su Siyao asked hesitantly for a long time, holding a bowl.
"It's nothing, why do you ask?"
Tang Zijun looked up, yawned, and asked in return.
"You look exhausted. Didn't you sleep last night?" Su Siyao asked with concern.
Hearing her words, Tang Zijun simply waved her hand. "It's alright, I just had a bit of insomnia last night, but I managed to finish all the manuscripts I had for the past few days."
Tang Zijun naturally couldn't tell the two people in front of him about his dream experience, but he didn't lie too much. After talking with Qin Nan yesterday, he was indeed rushing to finish his manuscript.
However, Tang Zijun clearly overestimated herself. She had only stayed up one night, but she didn't expect to be so tired after the sun came out, and she could barely keep her eyes open.
Staying up all night used to be a piece of cake for me.
Am I really getting old?
Su Siyao didn't know how to comfort Tang Zijun, as she had never experienced insomnia before and used to fall asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
"Thank you for your hard work."
"It's alright, it's all for work. Besides, there are plenty of people who work much harder than me, I'm nothing compared to them." Tang Zijun smiled slightly.
Seeing this, Tang Cao placed a piece of cured meat on Tang Zijun's plate. "Brother, you don't really need to work so hard. Our family isn't short of money."
"How can we not lack money? Do you really think our family is some kind of rich family? It's one thing if you're still in school, but I've been an adult for so long. Do you think I still need to ask my parents for money?" Tang Zijun rolled her eyes at her.
"Don't worry, bro," Tang Cao patted his chest. "Once I start working, I'll definitely take good care of you and buy you a luxury car!"
"Give me back my luxury car? I'd be grateful if you could even take care of yourself."
Tang Zijun chuckled and shook her head, not taking the matter too seriously.
To be honest, Tang Zijun is not really short of money.
This isn't because his novels are particularly popular, but because in the reversed world, Tang Zijun can acquire a lot of valuable items to sell.
Of course, Tang Zijun won't touch some of the cultural relics. After all, everything in the Reverse World is a mirror image, and it would be difficult to sell many things if taken out, and it could easily attract trouble.
Therefore, it is essential to strike the right balance.
By using this method, Tang Zijun had already achieved "financial freedom" during high school.
And because he is not a big spender, he has been quite well-off over the years.
Otherwise, Tang Zijun wouldn't have signed Qin Nan so easily. At his age, not many people can afford to pay tens of thousands of yuan a year in salary.
"Oh, right," Su Siyao suddenly remembered something and said, "How about we go see a movie together this weekend?"
"Watch a movie?" Tang Zijun was taken aback.
"Yeah, yeah, Nezha II! I've wanted to see it for ages, but I've never had the time. Now that the monthly exams are over, I can finally relax. My parents said they'll book tickets for me." Su Siyao said excitedly.
"Sounds pretty good." Tang Zijun raised an eyebrow; he had indeed come across quite a few news articles recently.
"It's not just good, it's absolutely amazing!" Su Siyao looked up. "I haven't dared to go online for the past few days, afraid of being spoiled. I'm definitely going to watch it to my heart's content this time."
"How about it, Tangtang, Brother Tang, let's go together!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Cao was immediately tempted.
She was really enthusiastic about these things, but just as she was about to agree, she suddenly remembered that she was going to learn magical girl magic from Qin Nan this weekend, and she was conflicted for a moment.
After spending a few days together, Tangcao and Qin Nan became quite close. Perhaps because they were both magical girls, they quickly became good friends.
After making some inquiries, Tang Cao also learned some information about Qin Nan, such as that she was not a local magical girl from Snow City at all, and that her activity area was not even in the Northeast.
My trip to Syracuse was mainly to handle some 'personal matters,' and I won't be staying here for long.
Under these circumstances, Tang Cao couldn't guarantee how long Qin Nan would be able to teach her. She was worried that Qin Nan would leave before she had fully learned some magic.
Although we live in the information age, where people can make phone calls or video chats even if they are thousands of miles apart, it is completely impossible for magical girls to be taught online.
Magical girls' magic can affect electronic devices and even block signals in small areas.
If online teaching were to take place, the interaction between the two would probably be limited to the transformation scene.
Seeing that Tang Cao and Tang Zijun hadn't reacted for a while, Su Siyao tilted her head.
"Candy?"
"."
Tang Cao hesitated for a moment, then finally sighed.
The latest novel is first published here!
"I'm sorry, Yao Yao, I... I probably won't be able to go this weekend."
"Why?" Su Siyao blinked.
This week. This week.
Stop being so dense, think faster!
"I made plans with my online friends to play cards this week."
Tangcao took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.
"My online friend is going abroad soon, so we'll have fewer and fewer opportunities to play games together, so..."
"Okay." Hearing her best friend's words, Su Siyao shrugged helplessly, then turned to Tang Zijun. "What about you, Tang-ge? How about we go together?"
"I?"
Tang Zijun opened her mouth.
He already knew why Tang Cao couldn't go; after all, Qin Nan was someone he had traveled a long way to find.
If Tang Cao can't go, then she certainly can't go either. According to the agreement, during the time Qin Nan is teaching Tang Cao, Tang Zijun is required to protect the safety of Chang'an.
Although we cannot guarantee that there will definitely be an invasion by heretical demons this weekend, we still need to patrol.
You can't exactly greet the heretics and demons and say you're going to see a movie this week, and that you evil forces should behave yourselves in order to help Nezha, can you?
If it really makes sense, then I wouldn't have needed to struggle through studying and fighting monsters back then.
So Tang Zijun could only look at Su Siyao apologetically.
"I'm sorry, I probably can't go either. A former colleague invited me out this weekend. It was arranged a long time ago, and I don't want to break my promise."
"Hmm"
Su Siyao pouted, looking at the brother and sister in front of her with a strange gaze.
I have a feeling that you two are hiding something from me.
Unfortunately, I have no evidence.
