I’m Really Not The Demon God’s Lackey

Chapter 23: -Where is the switch?

"... This rainstorm has been upgraded to a red warning. The lower city of Nuojin has temporarily closed the passage, the traffic in the upper city is almost paralyzed, a large number of industries have been hit hard, and the infrastructure has been seriously damaged. Ψ弎a书Ψ"

"At present, the sewer network has all been operating at the highest efficiency, and the water accumulation situation has eased slightly. However, according to expert forecasts, this is only a drop in the bucket. If the heavy rain continues for another week, one-third of Nuojin's area may be submerged."

"Roll Resources Development Corporation proposes to use the Xiacheng District to build a more complete and effective sewer system. This will be a very huge project. Therefore, it appeals to all walks of life to get the support of the Central District."

"According to expert analysis, the main cause of this heavy rain is the cold air mass from the northern highlands..."

Lin Jie tried to use a mop to clean up the water stains on the floor while listening to the news broadcast on the TV of the neighboring store next door.

This heavy rain has lasted for almost a week.

As stated in the news, before yesterday, when the situation was at its worst, the accumulation of water on the road exceeded 30 centimeters.

Traffic is completely paralyzed, but it's not... because you can also use water transportation such as kayaks.

The water even flooded into the bookstore from outside.

Lin Jie woke up early in the morning and went downstairs to see water flowing in from under the door, with some leaves and the like, almost thought he was going to move.

Fortunately, the situation is not that serious.

After the sewer system is fully operational, the water level outside has not risen, but some floating plastic bags and the like blocked the door, so water flooded in.

"Wow."

Lin Jie pushed the last water out of the door with a mop, straightened up and let out a sigh of relief: "Well, it's really tiring."

He put the mop aside and looked at the clean floor with great satisfaction.

"I don't know if the kitten has found home. In such terrible weather, it would be too dangerous to wander outside. "Three u 捌u read u book"

Lin Jie suddenly remembered the black cat that ran away outside the door the day Joseph came.

With a kind-hearted nature, he sighed with some worry.

The TV sound next door suddenly stopped, followed by a curse, banging and banging.

Lin Jie can completely imagine how the owner of the shop next door is now furious.

"Excuse me, do you need help?"

He walked to the wall nearest to the next door, cleared his throat, and asked.

Next door to this bookstore is a video store, which sells some CDs and digital products, but they are mostly second-hand, and the quality is very worrying.

The popularity of the business is comparable to that of his broken bookstore, with an average of 02 customers per day.

"No thanks."

The owner's voice came from the next door, followed by two more grumpy flaps.

"Boom!"

Ackerman Colin stared angrily at the TV in front of him, cursing in a low voice, "Damn it... Damn TV! Damn it raining! Lord, who can come to save me!"

He checked the TV and found that it was not the problem with the TV itself, so it should be a problem with the wiring or power supply.

Colin checked the line and found no problems.

"Then it can only be a trip," he thought, "but now, my door is almost flooded, but the switch is outside..."

The location of the video store is lower than that of the bookstore. As long as Colin wants to step into the water, he frowns bitterly, wishing to give the group of people who design the sewer pipe one a wrench.

"Wait, maybe the guy next door can help."

Although Colin had just rejected the help of the owner of the bookstore next door out of a kind of embarrassing self-esteem.

But he knew that the guy next door had always been a good old man.

Basically, if you can help, you will definitely help.

"Uh, forehead cough cough, are you still there?"

Colin said.

Sure enough, the young man's response came next door: "Yes, do you need help?"

Colin secretly said that it was true, and then looked at his own TV: "That's it, you should have heard it too. There is something wrong with my TV. I suspect that the electric switch outside may have tripped. I can't go now. Open, can you help me see it?"

Anyway, the guy next door is very helpful, so it's okay for him to help a little bit.

What's more, his TV shows news every day, which is free for him.

Of course Lin Jie doesn't mind helping.

In fact, he is bored now and is trying to find something to do.

"No problem, as for the switch, I remember it was..."

Lin Jie is about to go out.

Suddenly, on the door

A dark and fuzzy figure was reflected, and in the glass frame on this door, it was like a blackened portrait.

That tacit feeling suddenly appeared again.

"Ah, it's you, you are here."

Lin Jie was a little surprised. He didn't expect that after a few days, the behind-the-scenes hand appeared again: "Is there anything wrong with me? Or to urge me to borrow books quickly."

The shadow at the door shook his head, and pointed his finger to the left.

Lin Jie turned his head, and over there was the location of the video store. Combined with the context, he guessed: "Are you trying to say, will you help me?"

The shadow nodded.

Lin Jie smiled, how did he feel that this man behind the scenes is so cute.

Last time there was no entity, so I could only express it with water stains, and now it has a shadow-like appearance.

That should be the credit of the book that he lent-it said last time that the book borrowed can bring it benefits.

So now show up to do a favor and thank you?

What? It was already a deal, but now it should be when he paid the price, how could he still say thank you.

What's the feeling of such a good and polite child?

If you refuse, it seems that you will feel sad.

"Thank you, the location of the switch is... um... I can't remember."

Lin Jie turned to the next door and raised his voice: "Where is the switch?"

Colin hurriedly said: "At the back door of my shop, on the wall on the right, see if it is tripped. If it is, just press it."

Lin Jiedao: "No problem."

As soon as he finished speaking, Colin saw his TV click again to light up, the news had been broadcast, and the advertisement was playing, and he was overjoyed: "Okay! Thank you very much!"

"You're welcome."

Lin Jie looked at the dark shadow, smiled and nodded, the latter gradually fading outside the glass window, as if gradually retreating into a rain curtain.

Colin leaned back into the sofa contentedly, picked up the remote control and changed several channels.

He watched the changing picture on the TV, he was taken aback for a moment, then his face stiffened.

A little bit of cold sweat came out from behind.

The owner of the bookstore next door started talking until the TV turned on again.

The position of his voice has never changed...
