Chapter 1906 - 979: I Love Working! (3)

The so-called Ji Jue is right here!

This is his place, his origin and destination.

It is not the future, not the past, but the [present] moment, where Ji Jue himself resides!

From now on, no matter how time changes, no matter how space shifts, there's no need to worry about losing direction.

Just like that crucial point set on the plane's coordinate system, making every chaotic and confused function change clear and distinct, vivid.

Once there is a standard, everything becomes ranked; once the starting point is found, the four directions become apparent.

As long as one recognizes their reference point and finds their unchanging position in time, there's no need to worry about getting lost in the past and future, nor fear being easily twisted and submerged by the distorted time of insects.

In the moment of his enlightenment, a brand-new blessing emerged from his soul.

Origin, standard point, landmark, guiding star, celestial axis...

In the past, people have called it many names, but the most well-known and closest to its essence, has only one name.

[Anchor]

From now on, this is uniquely Ji Jue's anchor point!

In the encirclement and witness of infinite intense light, Ji Jue tried for the first time to unleash its power.

Then, the inevitable fall and return began.

Just a blink of an eye, as if pulled by an invisible string, the soul lost at the end of time returned to its body once more.

Ji Jue opened his eyes.

Click!

On the wall, the clock's second hand had just jumped a mark.

One second.

Such a brief time, as if nothing happened, but everything had already become different.

In the oil painting, the old man put away the dim lantern, nodded farewell, and vanished into the darkness.

Leaving Ji Jue standing there, dazedly looking at his own hands.

Everything that just happened, was definitely not an illusion; within his soul, the existence of the blessing [Anchor] was shining brightly.

No, the originally hardest blessing to acquire surprisingly came so easily?

No ascetic practices, no trials, nor difficult searching and resonance.

So effortlessly.

Being a connected person is awesome, huh?

Unfortunately, as he turned back wanting to express gratitude to the president, he found that the president had already disappeared.

The office door opened again.

Du Bin rose from the shadows and walked out.

"Human, come with me."

With a flick of its nose towards Ji Jue, it led ahead, "You should go now."

"Second brother! Second brother!!!"

In the hall, waiting for a long time, Lu Xing was almost overwhelmed by the dogs, raising something in his hand, excitedly showing, "Look, they gave me gifts!"

In his hands was a meticulously crafted piece of art—a small train engine, spotless, but inevitably with two dog hairs attached.

For him, everything that happened today was too exciting; although there were terrifying moments, everything witnessed after surpassed imagination in brilliance.

It was simply like a dream.

Even at the platform, holding the train engine, he was still reluctant to part, pulling Ji Jue's hand, "Second brother, can I come again in the future?"

Ji Jue hesitated, not speaking.

He stood before the ready Doomsday Special Train for a long time; eventually, he turned, looking back behind him... at those eyes watching him.

Paramedic, cleaner, security guard, glutton, waste... Corgis, Gold Hair, Huskies... all the dogs stood on the other end of the platform, crowded together, watching them.

Raising their paws, clumsily waving.

Smiling, silently saying goodbye.

"..."

Ji Jue's lips parted and closed for a moment, then tightened for a long time, before bowing his head to instruct the puzzled Lu Xing: "You get on the train first, wait for me."

Then, he strode towards them.

Completely ignoring Du Bin's disdainful gaze, he spread his arms, and casually petted all the dogs' heads, genuinely enjoying it.

Then, he rounded the corner, looking at the figure hiding behind.

Lowering its head, avoiding his gaze.

The president.

Clearly, Ji Jue was the one who benefited, yet now it was as if the one at fault was it.

Ji Jue sighed silently, suddenly said, "Actually, I'm quite idle lately..."

The president looked puzzled, tilting its head.

"So free I want to find a job, just the kind where I work hard at Kukulala, preferably with low pay, lots of work, never-ending, and occasionally a small performance whip."

Ji Jue bent down, looking at it, solemnly asked, "So, can you offer an internship opportunity?"

In the silence, the president said no more.

Just looked at him, those shining eyes like stars.

Suppressing a smile, but couldn't help it.

That's how much I like you!
