Hogwarts: I'm just here to enjoy the magic

A mutated beast attacked last night, plunging the entire city into chaos. Even after a whole day, it has not fully recovered.

After dinner, Antulu wandered the streets for nearly two hours.

In the end, I could only sit down on the cement block nearby, cover my head, and began to feel worried.

Today's money-making goal has not been achieved.

This fact makes Antulu very distressed.

He had to do something to earn enough income to support his family.

After all, it is no longer time for one person to have enough food and the whole family not to be hungry.

There are four more mouths waiting for him at home.

After thinking hard, he decided to ask someone.

Having an idea, he first went to the phone booth and then got in.

He quickly picked up the phone, dialed the number, and waited quietly.

It took about a minute or so before the call was finally connected.

"Hello? Fat brother?"

"Yes, it's me. Who are you? What do you want from me?" A rough male voice came from the phone.

"I'm Antulu, the little An who helped move the body last time." Antulu said humbly.

"Oh, it's you." The fat brother probably thought of a person like Antulu, "What do you want from me?"

"Fat brother, do you have any work to do? I'm short of money..." Antulu asked bluntly.

"Work? Of course there is one." Fatty said briskly, "Can you go to work now?"

After hearing this, Antulu raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

He quickly replied: "Okay."

"Come to my place if you can get to work. Do you remember how to find me?"

"I remember it."

"Then let's do it." Fat Brother seemed to have something to do, "The positions are limited, first come, first served. It's up to you." After saying that, he hung up the phone.

All that came to my ears was the beeping busy tone.

Antulu hung up the phone and walked out of the phone booth.

He was short of money and had to find some work from Fat Brother. Even if it was already dark, he had to hurry up and get there.

Antulu looked at it and found that his location was a bit far away from Fat Brother's residence.

Even taking the bus takes more than 20 minutes.

If I walked there by myself, I'm afraid even an hour wouldn't be enough.

If it takes so long, the day lilies might get cold.

He didn't miss the last few words Fat Brother said.It's not obvious that there is work to do and money to be made, but it's first come, first served.

He couldn't fall behind.

As soon as he finished his analysis, Antulu hurried to the bus stop.

Good luck.

As soon as they arrived, a bus pulled into the station.

The route is quite suitable and happens to pass by Fat Brother’s lair.

Now that everything is like this, there is nothing to say, just get on the bus, pay, then find a place to sit down and wait quietly.

After a while, the bus started.

The car body shook slightly as it drove on the road.

There were quite a few people on the bus, but it was very quiet.

No one spoke.

Either sleeping with eyes closed, or silently looking at the scenery outside the window.

Antulu chose a seat by the window. He could also see the scenery, but he didn't think there was anything interesting to see.

Under the dark night, there is a city covered in scars and broken walls.

Occasionally, people sit on top of the ruins of the buildings.

Perhaps, he is sad for his destroyed home.

Antulu looked at it for a while and then stopped.

In this world, life is difficult, and even one's own survival is a problem, so there is no time to care about how other people are living.

So, he also closed his eyes and rested.

The bus shook slightly and suddenly stopped.

Then, someone could be heard getting into the car, coming to Antulu's side and sitting down.

Antulu opened his eyes and glanced.

It's two girls.

One sat next to him, and the other sat in front of and to his right.

As soon as the two girls sat down, they started chatting.

Although not on purpose.

But Antulu overheard their conversation.

These are all major events that have happened recently.

Something about the Defense Force.

There’s also something about mutant beasts.

As we chatted, we talked about work.

"It's so hard to find a job now, and I got kicked off the job again today."

"You went to the rescue station to apply for a job today, right?"

"Correct."

"You went to high school, so you will be kicked out?"

"It's just a high school, and I don't have any special skills."

"Isn't it okay to work as a clerk at an aid station?"

"No, they need to have relevant work experience. I feel like they are targeting me. I just graduated, where do I get the work experience?"

"Clerks also need work experience? That's outrageous. In my impression, don't those clerks just copy documents and classify them? What kind of work experience is required for such a job?"

"That's right, I think so too, it's too exaggerated."

"What now? Keep searching?"

"I don't know, it's so hard to find a job now. You don't know, last night, the mutated beast collapsed the workshops of two garment factories that produce clothes. It's obvious that two more companies may not be able to continue. If we continue like this, there will be fewer and fewer factories and more and more people. It is possible for ten people to compete for one position."

"So outrageous?"

"But these are all facts."

"Then...do you want to consider joining the army? I heard the benefits are very good."

"Join the army? Don't, the mortality rate is very high. I heard that hundreds of people in the escort died last night. I'm still so young and don't want to do such a fatal job."

"Don't the escorts also have logistics?"

"Yes, but..."

When Antulu heard this, he suddenly saw the girl's eyes.

They had turned their heads and looked at themselves.

Probably because he was so absorbed in listening that his ears pricked up, he was discovered.

Antulu as the cunning adult.

Of course he stared at the two girls expressionlessly.

Until the other party couldn't bear it anymore and turned his head back.

He naturally shifted his gaze.

This little episode made the atmosphere awkward.Although both parties were at peace with each other, the girls stopped chatting.

Antulu could only wait quietly for arrival.

Even so, I couldn't help but think of what the girls were chatting about.

It’s really hard to find a job now.

The reasons are complex.

On the one hand, it is because the number of consumers has shrunk and no one is buying the goods produced. Naturally, there is no need for so many production workers.

On the other hand, it is because there are really too many closed factories.

There is the issue of natural disasters, such as the attack by mutant beasts last night, which damaged many factory workshops. If you want to resume production, you must spend real money.

That's a lot of expense, and factory owners may not be willing to do it.

There are also people issues.For example, there are more and more unemployed people, but factory positions are very limited, etc.

After much calculation, it seems that only government departments are relatively stable.

For example, an organization like the rescue station, I heard that you can earn more than 100 yuan for one day's work, which is very good.

It would be even more exaggerated if he could join the escort team.

Every day starts with a thousand, and during the days when mutated beasts invade, it goes to five or six thousand a day.

The problem is that once money is earned, people may not have the opportunity to spend it.
