Chapter 18

"Excuse me, are you hiring here?"

An intellectual and beautiful middle-aged woman stood at the door with a flyer, smiling and asking Su Quan, who had just come down the stairs.

Jessica Jones and Popclaw went out to photocopy and post the freshly baked recruitment notices. They hadn't returned yet, but the applicants had come first, which made Su Quan, who had failed to communicate with Kimiko, feel much better.

"Applying for a clerk position?" Su Quan walked over to look at the other party carefully, but was stunned by the other party’s appearance.

Aunt May?

Her appearance and figure were good, and her temperament was quite good. Isn't this the future Spider-Man Peter Parker’s guardian, Aunt May!

Doesn't she live in Queens? Why did she run to Manhattan to find a job?

"My name is May Parker, and I want to apply for the clerk position." Aunt May took the initiative to introduce herself, talking about her abilities and confidence in doing this job well in a calm and generous manner.

"That’s fine, you’re hired."

"Ah?"

"Working hours are from 8 to 5, one day off per week. Can you accept that?"

"Yes!"

"When can you start working?"

"I can start now!"

"Good, consider yourself hired today!"

Su Quan nodded with satisfaction and pointed to the empty hall beside him: "This is your future office area. As you can see, the company has just started and everything is waiting to be done. The first thing you need to do is to buy office equipment such as computer desks and chairs."

As he spoke, he took out 50,000 USD and handed it to Aunt May: "Buy whatever you need for the office, buy the best, return the surplus, and get it done before dark. Any questions?"

"No, no problem."

"Then go."

"..."

Aunt May walked out of the company with the money in a daze. I—I was hired just like that?

Is it that casual?

Don't you need to verify if I have the ability or if I’m lying?

This little boss is too decisive!

And he actually dared to hand over the procurement task to a newly hired employee to do alone. Isn't he afraid that I will run away with the money or report a false price?

Aunt May had met such a—such an honest boss for the first time. Honestly, she couldn't help but worry about the company’s prospects. Won't the company or the little boss’s money be cheated away?

Although she was newly hired, and although she didn't even know the little boss’s name, Aunt May had already broken her heart for the company.

After Jessica Jones and Popclaw returned, Su Quan told them about Aunt May’s employment and the purchase of office equipment. If anyone else came to apply, he would let them be responsible for the interview.

"You handed things over to us, what about you? What are you doing? You—you won't be leaving again, right? You just came back last night!" Jessica Jones felt something was wrong the more she heard, and subconsciously grabbed Su Quan’s arm.

Su Quan was dumbfounded and smiled lightly: "Your reaction is quite fast. I’m just going to get the operating funds for the company. I can be back in two or three hours."

"Really?"

"Really!"

Getting Su Quan’s guarantee, Jessica Jones let him go.

Going upstairs to put on the backpack dedicated to scavenging, Su Quan, after many days, was once again full of expectations and teleported to the void.

……

The sky was dim, and the clouds seemed to be falling, black and heavy.

From time to time, there were deafening roars and dazzling lights, giving people a feeling of fear.

In the distance, the ruins of buildings were full of scars and broken walls, like the end of the world.

This is the void, the end of the timeline, and also the "garbage dump" of the timeline.

At the same time, this is also Su Quan’s treasure bowl and adventure field. Every time he comes to scavenge, he is full of expectations and surprises!

Having come several times, he found quite a lot.

The ruins of the New York Sanctum that should have been guarded by the Sorcerer Supreme or Doctor Strange;

The wreckage of Stark Tower that was crumbling and could collapse at any time;

In the vast, empty wasteland, there are also the Egyptian Sphinx, Greek temples, and more.

These buildings are nothing.

The head of the Living Tribunal, though it is uncertain whether it is a skeleton or a statue;

The wreckage of a helicopter with Thanos's name written on it;

Thanos's flagship, the Sanctuary II;

S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Helicarrier;

The ship of the Kree accuser, Ronan;

The crashed Insight Project Helicarrier, bearing the Hydra emblem;

An enlarged Yellowjacket helmet;

There are too many such treasures from different timelines and different universes, but unfortunately, most have been destroyed by the 'Cleaner' Alioth.

Just as Su Quan was sighing, bursts of oppressive and terrifying roars suddenly erupted from the distance.

A cloud of darkness that blotted out the sky and sun swept over like a tsunami in the distance.

It was pitch black, with faint flashes of purple light, resembling an unstoppable behemoth, exerting immense psychological pressure.

This is the 'Cleaner' Alioth, and also the watchdog of He Who Remains at the end of time!

An old man wearing a horned helmet, a golden cape, and a gold-and-green bodysuit was running for his life in front of Alioth.

Green magical light flared, and a realistic duplicate identical to him appeared instantly, turning to charge defiantly at Alioth.

At the same time, the original waved his cape, and a cloud-like portal emitting green light appeared in front of him.

He quickly dashed into the swirling green portal and vanished along with it.

The realistic duplicate charging at Alioth was instantly crushed and dissipated; having lost its prey, Alioth roared in thunderous rage, turning reluctantly to search for the next target.

"Bang—"

The old man who rushed out of the green portal collapsed to the ground with a muffled grunt; as he prepared to stand up, he suddenly saw a pair of feet appear in his line of sight.

The old man slowly looked up, and Su Quan, looking down at him, smiled and said, "Hello there, Loki!"
