Outside the Eighteenth Hall.
Two guards stood straight, their uniforms neat.
Weapons in hand, heads held high, they looked imposing.
Seeing the members of the Eighteenth Squad enter, the two ghosts exchanged glances.
Xu Duo Bao: "Is my collar crooked?"
Niu Xiao Guo glanced up and down, then shook his head.
He then tilted his head, signaling, "Check my hairstyle, is it messy?"
Xu Duo Bao glanced and replied, "No."
The two ghosts met each other's eyes, seeing two words reflected in them: Excellent!
They had heard that a large number of ghost officers would be stationed at the Eighteenth Squad today.
As sentinels, they were determined not to disgrace the Eighteenth Hall.
They had to present a good image!
"Here they come!"
Suddenly, Xu Duo Bao's peripheral vision caught sight of a figure approaching rapidly.
He quickly signaled.
The two ghosts immediately looked forward, their expressions becoming serious.
Soon, the ethereal figure arrived before the Eighteenth Hall.
Tall and slender, with a slightly rounded face.
Not fat, but rather approachable.
He looked at the plaque, then his gaze shifted downwards.
He nodded at Xu Duo Bao and Niu Xiao Guo, "I'm here to report to the Eighteenth Squad today."
"Please enter, sir," Niu Xiao Guo said solemnly.
"Mm."
The ethereal figure floated into the Eighteenth Hall.
Leaving behind a faint aroma of braised meat mixed with various spices.
"…?"
Niu Xiao Guo instinctively sniffed, then sniffed again.
Wow, it smelled so good!
Had this sir just come from the food street?
As he was pondering, another ghost officer hurried over.
Stopping abruptly at the entrance of the Eighteenth Hall.
About 1.4 meters tall, with short black hair that just reached her neck.
Slightly curled, it softly framed her ears.
She was petite, and even her work uniform was a custom-made small size.
From the wide sleeves, two small hands emerged, nervously clasped in front of her.
Her delicate face looked timidly at the two guards.
She confirmed softly, "Excuse me, is this the place to report to the Eighteenth Squad?"
In an instant, Xu Duo Bao's eyes widened considerably.
"Yes, yes, this is the Eighteenth Hall. It's right here."
He was screaming internally, this ghost officer was too cute!
"Thank, thank you," the petite ghost officer said gratefully.
Then, clasping her hands tightly, she took a deep breath.
And entered the Eighteenth Hall.
"You're welcome, you're welcome…"
Xu Duo Bao watched her go, a feeling of happiness welling up in his heart.
It was so good to be here at the Eighteenth Squad!
Beside him,
Niu Xiao Guo glanced at him, surprised by his preference for lolis.
…
Inside the Eighteenth Hall,
A large group of members were already standing in formation.
As Qiao Linglong entered, the viewers in the live stream room became excited.
Bullet comments flew by.
"Loli herself! ٩(๑＞◡＜๑)۶"
"Ahhh, so cute it's killing me."
"Why is there such a cute ghost officer!"
"Brothers, don't get too excited, let me!"
Some artists couldn't resist the urge and opened their drawing boards.
They liked her more the more they looked.
…
That's right, Jiang Lin had started the live stream as soon as he came out of the training room this morning.
He needed to earn points for his daily tasks.
Seeing a new member enter,
He spoke to confirm, "Qiao Linglong?"
"Here!"
Qiao Linglong clutched the corner of her clothes, her voice involuntarily becoming louder.
As she spoke, quite a few members looked over.
Jiang Lin also looked, wondering if he had scared her just now.
Under Jiang Lin's gaze, Qiao Linglong clutched tighter, almost tearing the work uniform she had just received.
Seeing this, Jiang Lin responded with a faint "Mm."
One hundred new members were expected today, some newly promoted, others transferred from different squads.
Perhaps they would be unfamiliar at first, but they would get used to it over time.
In the formation,
A tall ghost officer with a slightly rounded face raised her hand and waved slightly at Qiao Linglong.
"Come over here."
Qiao Linglong also nodded slightly, looked at the captain in front, and then went to stand beside that teammate.
As soon as she got close, she heard a "thump."
A palm-sized chicken leg fell out.
… from the sleeve of the teammate next to her.
Qiao Linglong: …?
She was so startled she almost reacted reflexively, but the teammate beside her merely raised an eyebrow slightly.
Then, without blushing or skipping a beat, she reached out and grabbed it.
The palm-sized chicken leg, propelled by ghost energy, zipped into her sleeve pocket.
Seeing her new teammate staring at him, Bai Wan felt a slight hesitation.
Reluctantly, he asked softly, "Want some?"
Qiao Linglong's eyes widened in alarm, she quickly glanced at the captain in front, then at Bai Wan.
She shook her head vigorously, her slightly curled black hair flying with the movement.
This was in front of the captain, sneaking food was too bold!
Bai Wan: You really don't want it?
Qiao Linglong: Absolutely not!
Bai Wan happily put away the chicken leg, it was great!
He would save it for himself.
…
Ten minutes later.
A total of one hundred and twenty new and old members had arrived.
Jiang Lin matched each person with their name.
Then, as usual, he said a few words and assigned the newly promoted ghost officers to experienced old members.
One-on-one, or one-on-two.
Even Hong Ya was assigned one.
As for Nie Jiu…
Never mind.
Jiang Lin patted his shoulder, "Do a good job!"
Nie Jiu: "Yes, Captain!"
He didn't feel anything was wrong.
He was even happy.
Without having to mentor new recruits, he would have more time to train at the arena.
Last night, the Underworld Task Center had already displayed the cultivation techniques and skills that Jiang Lin had brought back from the Southern Hall.
They could be exchanged with performance points.
Many ghost officers who had watched the live stream from the Southern Hall were lining up to exchange them.
Nie Jiu had also gone to exchange them.
Moreover,
He had only learned in the past two days that the arena brought back by the captain was unique in the Eastern Hall!
Other ghosts had no way to come and train.
This showed how good the captain was to them!
…
In the live stream room,
A group of viewers saw this scene and their lips curved upwards.
They cracked sunflower seeds with loud crunches.
They had understood that in the Underworld live stream, when you can laugh, you should laugh.
Otherwise, when it's time to cry, there's truly nowhere to cry.
It would be heartbreaking.
"Hahaha, I feel like the streamer is trying to say something but stops, and then tries again."
"Nie Jiu: ??? What's wrong, what's wrong? What happened to me, why can't I mentor new recruits?"
"The streamer is so worried about his teammates~"
"It's like seeing my girlfriend in the same neighborhood, just one building apart, but when she comes to find me, she can get lost all the way to the neighborhood entrance."
It had to be said, after not seeing the Eighteenth Squad for a while,
The viewers missed them quite a bit.
Now, seeing the streamer's team grow,
With a wave of their hands, golden flashing gifts flew across the bullet comments.
— Ah, just happy!
"Slim.Body.Soft.Heart gifted the streamer a Hot Air Balloon *1, with the message: Congratulations on the team's growth, flourishing and prosperous~!"
"Mummy gifted the streamer Red Fruits *10!"
"Gentle Young Man gifted the streamer…"
