Chapter 385 Daily Life in Rhodes Island
Rhodes Island, operators' rest area.
Murphy was holding a cup of his favorite cappuccino, sitting on a chair in the rest area with his legs crossed, looking relaxed and comfortable.
In front of him was a modified terminal that he had specifically requested from Kluchil, which could connect to the Leitania network.
“Rhode Island is such a magical place.”
Murphy watched Leitania's music program on the terminal, took a sip of coffee, and let out a long sigh of satisfaction.
These days he has gradually become familiar with the environment in Rhode Island, and thanks to his efforts, everyone is very friendly to him.
Saying the right thing to the right person is the ability Murphy is most confident about deep down.
He is a powerful man of the Gou Dao who has been certified by Qi Yan himself!
Just as Murphy was listening to the melodious classical music in the terminal and enjoying the comfortable life he had never experienced before, footsteps came from behind him.
Murphy realized that the owner of the footsteps was coming towards him.
He quickly sat up straight, lowered the volume on the terminal, turned around and gave a standard friendly smile:
"It's the Doctor. Please take a seat."
The Doctor nodded and sat down in the chair Murphy pulled over for him.
The two looked at each other, and the doctor chuckled and said:
"Thank you for the chair. How are you doing in Rhode Island these days?"
"It's perfect. Rhodes Island is simply the best company I have ever seen." Murphy did not hesitate to praise, "Rhodes Island not only has stunning land ships, but everyone here is also very friendly. Communicating with everyone is simply the most relaxing experience I have ever had."
The doctor nodded without commenting.
His face under the mask showed a gentle smile, and he took the initiative to ask:
"I see you don't have anything to do today, why don't you be my assistant? We can chat while we work."
Murphy's eyes slightly opened when he heard the doctor's invitation.
Seeing his expression, the doctor quickly explained in advance:
"I'm just asking. If you don't want to, you can refuse."
"No, no, no, I'm not trying to refuse. I'm just... a little surprised."
Murphy hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively: "After all, I am just an outsider sent by Leitania. As your assistant, won't I be exposed to any information that needs to be avoided?"
The doctor chuckled and shook his head:
“Rhodes Island has a lot of things that need to be kept secret, but most of them are in the medical department or managed by Kal’tsit herself.
In addition, Mr. Murphy, there is no need to always regard yourself as an outsider. You are Qi Yan's friend and also our friend of Rhode Island."
Murphy looked timid and foolish on the outside, but he was actually very smart on the inside and he immediately understood the doctor's hidden meaning.
"Doctor, if I do something wrong, please remind me directly. I am a stupid person. As my elder brother Qi Yan said, I can't grow without fighting." Murphy immediately began to stack armor.
This performance made the doctor chuckle.
Murphy looked apologetic and kept laughing.
The two laughed a few times, and the doctor slowly stopped laughing, and his tone became more serious:
“That’s what I want to remind you of, you are always trying to please others because you put yourself in the shoes of an outsider, talking to everyone in pursuit of making others feel comfortable.
I’m not saying this is bad, but in Rhode Island, you can be freer and everyone is a friend.”
As soon as the doctor finished speaking, a petite red-haired Sarkaz girl ran away in the corridor holding an electric guitar.
Behind her, a group of logistics operators were chasing after her.
"Hongdou, you're planning on secretly carrying your electric guitar on a mission again!"
Hongdou, who was holding an electric guitar, turned around and shouted:
"Just promise me this once. Qi Yan helped me realize my dream last time. It's no problem. Everyone is very satisfied."
The logistics staff were so angry when they heard this:
"You also said that Qi Yan was there that time, and everyone was making a fuss, but now Qi Yan is still having fun in Leitania!"
Hongdou choked suddenly, turned her head and saw the doctor, and decisively changed direction and hid behind the doctor.
She grabbed the doctor's shoulders and shook him, begging:
"Doctor, please help me speak up. I just want to use music to boost morale like the flight attendants at Penguin Logistics."
The doctor's head was shaken by Hongdou.
Don't be fooled by Hongdou's small size. She is a real Sarkaz with amazing hand strength.
"Stop, stop, stop. Can't I plead for you?" The doctor begged for mercy.
As soon as he finished speaking, the logistics operators who had caught up with him immediately voiced their objection.
"no!"
"Doctor, if you dare to indulge Hongdou, I will expose the fact that you secretly took the office kettle while on a field trip last time and lost it, causing everyone to have no hot water to drink for the whole day!"
"You absolutely cannot mess around. We may encounter bounty hunters in the wilderness during this field mission... Um, it was the Doctor who caused me to have no hot water to drink last time?!"
PhD:"……"
He turned his head to look at Hongdou, his face beneath the mask revealing a helpless expression.
Seeing that the doctor was in danger, Hongdou stuck out her tongue and decisively ran away again.
"Just wait, I'll go find someone strong to join the team. Then no one will be able to stop me!" Hongdou expressed her determination while running.
The logistics operators didn't bother to cause trouble for the doctor and hurriedly continued to chase after him.
A group of people came suddenly and left in a hurry, leaving only Murphy dumbfounded and the doctor who was patting his chest with lingering fear.
"That was a close call. Luckily Hongdou's matter was more important, otherwise I would have been criticized again."
The doctor murmured thankfully, then looked at Murphy again: "Back to the topic just now, everyone in Rhodes Island is actually very relaxed when communicating. I know that your way of communication is a way to release goodwill.
But sometimes caring too much about other people's feelings can make them feel uncomfortable. We would rather make friends with you, Murphy, than with the Leitania commissioner or Qi Yan's older brother."
Murphy was silent for a moment.
He understood what the doctor meant. What happened to Hongdou and the logistics operators just now also confirmed that what the doctor said was not just empty talk.
In daily life in Rhodes Island, there is actually no strict distinction between superiors and subordinates.
Even a doctor would be hounded and denounced by ordinary operators for doing something wrong.
After a while, Murphy suddenly chuckled at himself, and when he raised his head again, there was a gleam in his eyes.
"Doctor, thank you for your reminder. You are a gentle and thoughtful person. It is my honor to be your friend." Murphy smiled sincerely, "I think I understand why my brother is willing to join Rhodes Island."
Hearing Murphy's words, the doctor suddenly remembered another thing he needed to remind himself of.
He looked around and made sure that there was no one around before leaning forward and whispering:
"Old Mo, according to the news from Logos, Qi Yan's white-haired dog will soon return to Rhodes Island.
I have to explain something to you first.”
It was the first time that the doctor called Murphy by a nickname. He couldn't help but feel flattered and quickly leaned over to him.
In Murphy's ear, the doctor's tone was more serious than ever:
“First, everyone has a close relationship with the white-haired dog, which is fine, but you have to be careful about the limit!
Second, it’s okay for other people, but you and the white-haired dog are a little sensitive about the way you address each other, so please don’t call him by that name casually in front of others.
Third, please do not leave the white-haired dog alone in an empty room for a long time, as bad things may happen.
Fourth, when Qi Lin appears next to the white-haired dog, all the above rules are invalid. Run, run as far as you can! "
Murphy sat up suddenly and looked at the doctor in amazement.
He hesitated and said, "Is this some kind of weird rule?"
(I feel numb. Why does it feel like the new house is getting messier the more I clean it? I was so busy cleaning the house today that I almost forgot to eat and write.)
