Chapter 11: My Naive and Foolish Litter Shovel Officer
“Rustle”
Fallen leaves drifted with the wind in an old residential complex, inside one of the buildings.
A chubby figure was hopping and climbing in the dim hallway.
“Meow~ （This old-style building is the worst. And it’s so high without an elevator. It’s simply ridiculous!）”
“Meow~ （The most important thing is that the windows are so small, there’s no light at all. It emits a musty smell and a gloomy atmosphere. Can it really make people comfortable?）”
“Meow~ （When I go to other worlds, I’ll have to earn some money and come back. I need to improve my living environment. ）” Li Li grumbled as he went upstairs.
This building was twelve floors high, but it didn’t have an elevator. Not only did he have to rely on his legs to climb the stairs, but the windows were also small and narrow. Even on a sunny afternoon, the staircase was like a haunted house.
Moreover, the rooms here were small and low. He didn’t know who designed this place.
And the most important thing was that his Litter Shovel Officer lived on the top floor, the twelfth floor. It was really hard on him, a little kitty.
Whose kitty has to climb twelve floors to go home?
“Meow~ （This broken building is too high. It’s a good thing I’m strong and healthy. ）” Li Li jumped onto the last floor with a light leap, feeling proud of himself, and walked towards the corridor ahead.
This old building was designed according to the old-style houses of the past.
There were stairs on both the left and right sides, and a corridor in the middle. On the inner side of the corridor were rooms that looked like classrooms.
However, because this building was too old and too high, there was only one family living on the twelfth floor now, which was Li Li’s Litter Shovel Officer.
This was also the reason why he was in a hurry to come back.
After all, it was so high here. What if his poor Litter Shovel Officer couldn’t think straight? A light jump, and it would be all over.
“Knock, knock”
“Knock, knock”
“Meow~ （Litter Shovel Officer, this cat is back. ）” Li Li, who had walked to the front of the door with the number four on it, raised his paw and knocked on the door.
Why did the Litter Shovel Officer lock the door when he was at home? It was fine to just close the aluminum alloy rolling shutter door, wasn’t it? At least he could squeeze in through the gap.
If the other party closed the door, it would be very inconvenient for him to enter.
“Is it Li Li back? I’ll open the door for you right away. Be good! Don’t scratch the door.”
Just after Li Li knocked on the door, a slightly hoarse male voice came from inside the room.
This made Li Li heave a sigh of relief. It seemed that his Litter Shovel Officer was fine, at least he was still alive. So his trip back wasn’t in vain.
“Click”
As the door opened, a face with messy hair, stubble, and dark circles under the eyes appeared.
Judging from the slightly red eyes, he had just shed tears. However, for Li Li, it was all a small matter. As long as the person was still alive, it was fine.
“Meow~ （Cheer up, young man. Look at what you’ve become. If you continue like this, you’ll become a Peking Man. ）” Li Li muttered as he entered the room and went to his food bowl, gobbling down the cooked pig liver.
Although the Litter Shovel Officer was heartbroken, he didn’t forget to cook for him.
Not bad, not bad. It seemed that the Litter Shovel Officer hadn’t really fallen into despair. It proved that there was still hope for him, and that was enough.
His good days were just beginning. He would go to another world in a few days and get some good stuff for him, let him reach the peak of his life, and marry a Fair, Rich, and Beautiful woman.
“Li Li, why are you back so early today? Didn’t you stay in the academy for a while longer? Did you miss me and come back to see me on purpose?” While Li Li was muttering to himself, Li Hao, with his messy hair, squatted down next to Li Li, stroking his raised back, his eyes determined. “I’ve thought about it. I can’t continue to be so depressed. Starting tomorrow, I’ll look for a job. I’ll let them know that they shouldn’t bully the young and poor.”
“Meow~ （Very good, very ambitious. You have this kind of awareness? I’m very happy. However, with your strength, I’m afraid it’s ‘Don’t bully the young and poor, don’t bully the middle-aged and poor, don’t bully the old and poor, only the dead are great.’ ）” Li Li paused after hearing this.
Based on his understanding of his Litter Shovel Officer, he had no power, no money, no talent, and no education.
If he wanted to get rich, he would either have to buy a lottery ticket or be reborn.
After all, these days, graduate students were worse off than dogs, and university graduates were everywhere.
If he wanted to get a decent and high-paying job, he would really have to be the best of the best.
Not to mention impressing people, his Litter Shovel Officer should first focus on solving his basic needs.
Otherwise, after a while, he might have to ask around for free abandoned houses to live in.
After all, he was small and could live in a stray cat’s nest, but his Litter Shovel Officer wouldn’t be so lucky.
“Li Li, look, I’m already looking for a job.” Li Hao took out his phone and showed the job postings on it. “I’ve already submitted more than twenty resumes. Starting tomorrow, I’ll go for interviews one by one and find a job that will allow us to live a better life.”
“Then we’ll buy a car in a year, a house in three years, and achieve financial freedom within ten years. Then we can travel all over the world.”
“Li Li, you must have never seen the sea or the mountains, right? After I find a job, I’ll take you to see them.”
“We’ll go see the sea and see the scenery we haven’t seen before.”
“Meow~ （Not bad, you’ve already started dreaming. It seems that you’ve come out of your sadness. ）” Listening to his words, Li Li nodded his big head.
His Litter Shovel Officer really had no social experience. Buying a car in a year and a house in three years, he would be lucky to buy a car in three years, let alone a house. Don’t daydream.
The broken residential complex they lived in cost eight thousand yuan per square meter, let alone a new residential complex.
With his status as a recent university graduate, he could at most find a job that paid five or six thousand yuan.
After deducting rent, food expenses, utilities, commuting, buying clothes, and socializing, how much money would he have left?
It would be good enough if he could buy him an extra can of cat food. He was still fantasizing here.
He was indeed a university graduate who had not been beaten by society.
The only advantage he had now was that he had rented a house. He didn’t have to pay for a hotel when he went for interviews.
However, even so, it would take at least half a month to find a decent job.
This meant that for half a month, he would be living beyond his means, and he would probably have to call his family for money again.
And after half a month, when he started working, he would definitely have to wait for a month before he got paid. This meant that for almost two months, the Litter Shovel Officer would be living a very difficult life. It was a good thing he could beg for food. Otherwise, it would be an additional burden.
He was indeed a university graduate who had not been beaten by society.
It seemed that his responsibility for the trip to another world in seven days was very heavy.
