Finding Talents

No matter how urgent it was to find someone, he had to wait until after school. After answering the call from the police station, Xia Xu casually took away a pack of rice at the front of the school gate and returned to the classroom.

It was time to eat, so the classroom was even quieter. To be precise, there was only one person in the room.

The entire classroom was empty. Only Tang Youxin was still sitting in her seat, eating slowly.

Perhaps because there was no one else around, Tang Youxin did not lie on the table and eat this time. She just looked sneaky. Everytime she took a small bite, she would look back at the door at the back of the classroom.

And thus, she turned around and her eyes collided with Xia Xu's.

Stun!

Tang Youxin seemed to have been caught off guard. She was stunned, and her chewing expression froze.

After a while, she reacted and quickly raised her food towards Xia Xu. "I… I ate meat buns this time!"

"What, you call this improving your meal?"

Xia Xu was taken aback before he realized what Tang Youxin meant. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Tang Youxin was afraid that he would force her to 'eat' again, so she emphasized that she had improved her meals.

"Meat buns are delicious, I like them."

Tang Youxin thought that Xia Xu was still dissatisfied, so she was a little anxious. Her face was red.

"Fine, eat them if you like it."

Xia Xu chuckled and sat on the seat next to her. He then picked up a piece of pork rib and handed it over. "Here, have some braised pork ribs."

"I don't want."

Tang Youxin dodged.

"Open your mouth, just one piece."

Xia Xu pulled a long face.

"Then… just one piece."

After all, she already had experience of being fed with spicy hotpot. Tang Youxin hesitated for a moment before eating it.

Xia Xu did not continue to feed her. He just buried his head in his food.

Too much was as bad as too little.

Tang Youxin was just being thrifty. She was not really dying of hunger. She obviously did not want to accept other people's kindness and pity, nor did she have to accept other people's kindness.

Feeding a little could be said to be a normal interaction between friends, sharing some snacks and tasting something, but inviting people to lunch all day would only hurt them.

After lunch, lunch break, and classes, the day on campus passed by peacefully.

While it was still early, Xia Xu casually found a small shop at the school gate, grabbed a few bites of dinner, and rushed to the development area yesterday.

Last night, he had found the three travel agencies nearby. The only thing left was to check the site and confirm the location of the old man.

Moreover, he happened to pass by a talent market on the way. It should still be open, so he could go and take a look.

After all, he was now a 'boss' with fifty to sixty thousand yuan assets in his bank account. He could still recruit people seriously, but the problem was whether anyone was willing to do this kind of stalking job. Ordinary people would not be willing to do this kind of gray job.

Moreover, this was not something that could be done easily. Whether he was reliable or not was a problem, and his ability was also a problem. After all, they had to stalk people for a long time, so it was a skill to be able to follow the target and not be discovered.

Although it was easy for him to follow Xue Mingjie last time, that was just because he was not alert. It was fine to follow him once or twice, but it was difficult not to be noticed in the long run.

If you often appeared in other people's vision, even if they didn't notice it, they would feel that something was wrong.

However, this was not a big problem for Xia Xu. Since he could check the character status screen, he could just spend some time and find someone with talent in tracking and investigation.

"Sir, just stop at the door in front."

Xia Xu got the driver to put him at the entrance of a talent market.

The words 'Star City Brilliant Human Resources Market' hung at the entrance. It was close to closing time, but there was still a sea of people inside.

The reason why he came here was because everyone here had the intention to work.

Otherwise, if he searched for someone on the streets and found someone who met his requirements, they might not agree. Most of them had their own stable jobs, and they would not quit just to earn thousands or tens of thousands of yuan.

Not to mention stalking and monitoring. Even if it was not illegal, God knew if they would be involved in a dangerous incident.

Name: Zhu Min

Lifeform Level: 1

Potential Destiny: Unemployed Person (0 Star)

Potential Talent: None

Speciality: None

Obsession: I don't want to work.

Favorability: 0

'How unlucky.'

Xia Xu naturally didn't have the qualifications to set up a recruitment booth, so he could only check the status of the candidates in the hall one by one, but as soon as he saw the first candidate, he was immediately rejected.

Potential destiny was being unemployed? Either this person was a rich heir or he was a blood sucking leech that was leeching off his parents.

'I knew it wouldn't be that simple. If it really doesn't work out, I can only find someone who is willing to work…'

After checking on some people, Xia Xu felt helpless.

Although the people here were all looking for jobs, it was like finding a needle in a haystack to find someone who met his requirements among so many people. There were more than a thousand people in the talent market, it was going to take him forever to go through every single one of them.

Moreover, most of the people here had average attributes of one or two stars, with very few two stars.

After all, those with good qualifications such as high education and talent could easily find a job, and there was no need to squeeze into the talent market every day. Instead, those who could come here every day were those who found it harder to find a job or new graduates.

After staying in the talent market for more than forty minutes, Xia Xu waited until half past six before leaving reluctantly like the depressed job seekers.

Over the past forty minutes, he had seen hundreds of people. There were also people with talent in tracking and investigation, but after he came into contact with them as a private investigator, no one was willing to agree.

Firstly, it was a matter of occupational preference. No matter how nice the word 'private investigator' was, it was not legal in Summer, and to be honest, there were not many accepting clients.

It was not that there was no demand, but that there was no culture that advocated the profession of an investigator. This was an extremely unpopular profession in the country, or rather, it was not a profession at all.

Secondly, it was probably because of him as a boss. He came in a hurry today and didn't make any preparations. He looked like a high school student who hadn't even changed out of his school uniform yet. At first glance, one would feel that he was unreliable. If someone asked about his company's qualifications, he wouldn't be able to provide them.

However, he was just looking at the situation today. It was the same if he came back tomorrow. After all, Zhang Jianmin's whereabouts had been lost, and he had not encountered any other plots, so there was no need to rush.

"Sir, go to Times Square, then please take a drive around these two places…"

The talent market was closed, so he could only come back tomorrow. After coming out, Xia Xu hailed a taxi and rushed to his next destination.

Times Square was the residential area where Xue Mingjie and the others gambled yesterday.

There were a total of three travel agencies in the area he speculated yesterday. He should be able to find the construction site old man mentioned in the plot of «Person About to Die».
