A little unusual

Across from the building where Peng Deng works.

Jenna walked to the Gray Car, watched as the door opened, and Ludwig got out.

She nodded to Anthony in the driver's seat and led Ludwig to a nearby Café.

Based on Peng Deng's profession, they have already drafted a plan for contact:

If they have the money, they can buy a Suite and then consult with Peng Deng's design firm, using "hypnosis" or "Instigation" and the ability to "designate" Peng Deng as their designer.

Next, you can discuss the design concept, ideas, and style with Peng Deng, and sign a contract. This allows you to repeatedly contact the target by reviewing the plans and visiting the site, gradually becoming familiar with him, and ultimately figuring out if there are any problems and where those problems lie.

Unfortunately, they didn't have that much money.

If they really had the money to buy a house, wouldn't it be simpler and more convenient for them to just rent the Magic Mirror Arrodes and ask it for details about Peng Deng?

Therefore, Anthony only planned to execute the first part of the plan—faking the fact that he Suite, visiting the house under the pretext of renovation, using his "hypnotic" abilities to get the boss of Peng Deng Company to assign Peng Deng to talk, and finally leaving under the pretext of thinking about it without signing a contract.

If Anthony's plan fails, and Peng Deng is unavailable or happens to be meeting with a client and is assigned to another designer, then Jenna will execute the second plan.

After taking Ludwig into the Café, choosing a window seat, and ordering a cappuccino, a glass of juice, a small cake, and a pile of Bread, Jenna gazed at the little boy across from her, lost in thought.

"Every time we need to carry out a test mission, we have to change the person leading him, it feels so troublesome..."

"He can certainly play a lot of roles, but a child's appearance, mindset, and cognitive abilities prevent him from acting independently, and we're also worried about... about the Ordinary Person in the Dream City..."

"Find a way to get him into some elementary school so he can attend. That way, we won't have to worry about him during the day; we can just pick him up at the designated time."

Ludwig had a bad feeling when Jenna was silent. Just then, the small cake was brought over, and he immediately smiled and picked up his fork and spoon.

After thinking about it for a while, Jenna gave up the idea of sending Ludwig to primary school.

That's not like going to Tutoring Class, which only takes an hour and a half with a break in between and parents outside. That would mean staying at school all day. Unless you give Ludwig the "Traveler’s Bag," there's really no way to get him to carry enough food.

At that time, will there be one student for two classes?

On the other side, Anthony saw Peng Deng enter the building.

After nine o'clock, and confirming that Peng Deng had not left, he got out of the car, walked into the building, took the elevator, and arrived at the design company called "Shengwei".

Anthony told the Receptionist, "I called to inquire beforehand, and I've already made an appointment."

The Receptionist flipped through the Recording and led Anthony to the conference room.

Not long after, the head of the design company came over, chatted with Anthony for a few minutes, and confirmed the style he wanted.

During this process, Anthony deliberately mentioned Peng Deng, saying that he had seen the designer's work and actual effects on the company's official WeChat account and felt that they matched his ideas very well.

Undoubtedly, while saying this, Anthony looked That One person in charge in the eye and used simple "hypnosis." He had also used psychological methods to guide the conversation during the previous phone call, but he couldn't directly apply "hypnosis."

"You can rest now, I'll go find the designer." That One person in charge got up and left the meeting room, while the assistant poured Anthony a glass of water and some fruit.

About ten minutes later, Anthony saw Peng Deng appear at the door.

Peng Deng has black hair and brown eyes, an ordinary appearance, and his hair is styled with some parts being fluffy. He is wearing a black T-shirt with a trendy brand vibe and is holding a laptop in his hand.

Anthony stood up calmly, showing no signs of distress.

After the company representative's introduction, Anthony and Peng Deng started chatting. Anthony mainly talked about his needs, while Peng Deng listened and occasionally asked more in-depth questions to understand the details.

After Anthony finished speaking, Peng Deng manipulated the laptop and projector, saying, "I found a few pictures earlier; take a look and see if they're the feeling you're looking for."

Not long after, Anthony saw a picture:

The modern-style living room is bright and clean, bathed in the golden Sunlight streaming through the windows. A vase filled with fresh flowers sits perfectly in the spot, and on either side hangs an Oil Painting depicting sparse, elegant trees and lush green fields...

Anthony suddenly realized that this was exactly what he wanted.

Peng Deng then showed several more pictures, similar in style to the previous ones, and each one seemed to perfectly Attunement Anthony's needs.

Based solely on his previous phone conversation and our face-to-face exchange, he truly grasped the vision I was hoping for? Wouldn't that be considered somewhat special? Anthony didn't immediately respond, but instead continued discussing with Peng Deng how those images would be presented as a whole, and how the designer's fee would be calculated.

After chatting for a while, Anthony stood up and said, "I'll think about it some more."

"Okay." Peng Deng didn't try to persuade him further and saw Anthony to the company entrance.

Anthony went downstairs, crossed the street, and passed by the Café Jenna and Ludwig were.

When the two met through the Glass Window, Anthony nodded slightly.

Then, he walked straight to the rented Gray Car.

Jenna looked away and continued watching Ludwig eat.

As agreed beforehand, she easily understood the meaning behind Anthony's nod without needing to guess:

I have already met with Peng Deng and had contact with him. After that, I will self-isolate until dawn tomorrow to see if anything unusual happens.

Inside the Administration Department of the Technology Building, Intis Group.

After a busy period, Rosanne started to slack off.

She picked up her phone and sent a message to "True Sleeve Sword":

"Should I hint at Zhou Mingrui's special qualities?"

Franca, sitting at the workstation in front of Rosanne, hesitated for a moment before replying, "Not for now."

"You can do it when neither my companions nor I can move anymore."

Franca was worried that if Rosanne hinted too deeply, they would also encounter something strange. They were kicked out of the Dream, Dream characters might die suddenly on the spot, or be hit and run over by a bus on their way home from work.

She was more inclined to believe that Rosanne was currently acting as her deputy, assisting her in subtly influencing Zhou Mingrui.

Just as Rosanne was about to say something more, Deputy Director Zhang Qing came out of his office, clapped his hands, and said, "President Huang will be here later, to show that VIP from last time around the company again..."

A rustling sound suddenly rang out as many employees took out their Makeup and picked up their own Vanity Mirror.

"That VIP from last time?" Franca asked Rosanne on her phone.

Is it Zarathustra?

"It should be. He's been the only VIP guest recently, and it involves the integration and merger of some subsidiaries, as well as a big deal," Rosanne replied quickly. "What do we do next?"

What she meant was, should Zarathustra be allowed to contact Zhou Mingrui?

Didn't Lumian report Zarathustra yesterday? The Police Headquarters has no evidence and can't restrict the freedom of foreign guests for the time being? Zarathustra just visited Zhou Mingrui at the Tutoring Class yesterday, and now he's come to the company again. What is he trying to do? Sigh, Lumian is right. Passive defense is easy to cause problems. It's better to actively eliminate hidden dangers... Franca looked at her phone, her thoughts racing.

After nearly a minute, she replied to Rosanne:

"Don't rush, let me see the specific situation before deciding. You just need to cooperate with me."

"Don't worry, with so many people watching over the company, Zarathustra can't possibly do anything."

If all else fails, I'll risk my job and pour a cup of water on Zarathustra's or President Huang's crotch!

Seeing that Luo Fu did not remove her glasses or Makeup, the nearby employees all withdrew their gazes from her, relieved, and focused on their own tasks.

Shortly after, President Huang's itinerary was announced in the group chat:

"President Huang has brought the VIPs to the Sixteenth Floor!"

The Technology Building, Sixteenth Floor.

Dressed casually, Huang Tao led Zarathustra, who was dressed in a formal suit, to a room filled with various antique objects and opened a bottle of Olmuir Red Wine.

"You said you bought a very peculiar Mirror?" Huang Tao continued the previous topic.

Zarathustra laughed and said, "Yes, it has a kind of Magic Power; it allows us to see our inner selves."

As he spoke, the old man's deep blue to almost Pitch-Black Eyes flickered slightly, and he took out a small mirror from his suit pocket. The Mirror was classically designed, luxuriously styled, and inlaid with gemstones.

At this moment, he and Huang Tao's entourage were left outside the current room, with only a few security personnel guarding the door, who did not approach them.

"Look, this is how I look in the Mirror." Zarathustra held the Mirror in front of his face.

Huang Tao came closer and saw that the reflection in the mirror was not of the old man Zarathustra, but of a man in his thirties with dark hair and ordinary features.

"Could it be a high-tech Mirror with artificial intelligence?" Huang Tao muttered, based on his own experience and understanding.

"Would you like to give it a try?" Zarathustra asked him.

"Okay." Huang Tao took the Mirror with great interest and quietly checked whether there were any hidden switches and what the mirror itself was made of.

He didn't find anything wrong, so he brought the Mirror closer to his face, still puzzled.

He then saw himself in the mirror.

That was completely different from what he had imagined.

The man in the mirror was a Women, wearing a magnificent Golden Crown, with long, slightly wavy chestnut hair, azure eyes, a high nose, and thin lips. She had a Allure appearance and an indescribable Charm.

Huang Tao was stunned, as if he had seen Anima in his heart.

Starting today, Lumian works the middle shift, only needs to arrive at the company before 4:30.

Since Late Night, he had used the Mirror World to sneak into a hospital called "Crimson Moon," where Li Keji is currently being held.
