Jaeger was also curious about who the other person was and what they wanted, so he opened the private message page.
When Jaeger saw the message from the other party, he raised his eyebrows in surprise.
【Hera Above】: Hello, I just saw your post about wanting to go to the Metropolis next week.
Coincidentally, I will also be going to the Metropolitan Area next week for work.
[Hera Above]: And I've also noticed that you seem to be taking on some commissioned work at the same time.
[Hera Above]: So, I'd like to ask if you accept commissions from the Metropolis, Detective?
Hmm? I didn't expect this to be a client.
I wasn't even drawn here by the pinned post on my homepage, but rather by the travel help post for the Metropolitan Area.
All I can say is that everything happens for a reason.
However, Jaeger's situation is different now; he no longer needs to rely on others to support himself.
Therefore, unless it is a truly interesting event, he will not consider it, since it is very likely to trigger an event card.
But Jaeger didn't rush to reply; instead, he first opened the profile of this "Hera Above".
The result was unexpected—Jaeger was somewhat surprised.
This "Hera Above" is actually an expert in the field of antiques!
She is skilled in antique appraisal and works as an archaeologist and antique consultant. She is also affiliated with many archaeological societies and enjoys a high reputation in the industry.
Most of her posts are related to the field of archaeology and the myths, epics, and historical sites involved.
Jaeger also noticed the other party's latest post.
This lady has been invited to give a lecture at Metropolitan University on the same topic of archaeology, which will take place next week.
No wonder the other party saw their help request post.
After all, they are all heading to the Metropolitan Area next week, probably because they are being manipulated by big data.
But the question is, what does it have to do with universities giving lectures and commissioning?
Jaeger was a little suspicious, but seeing that the other person's profile seemed to be a trustworthy person, he went back to the private message page to ask.
【Great!】: No problem. But I'm a little curious, is there any connection between the archaeology lecture and the commissioned content?
I don't actually know much about archaeology, so I probably won't be of much help.
【Hera Above】: It seems you just looked at my homepage.
But it's okay, I actually saw yours too. And snakes are cute.
[Great!]: Uh, thank you?
Hera above: You're welcome.
Back to the main point, boy. I have indeed been invited to the Metropolitan Museum of Art next week to share some archaeological knowledge, but that has nothing to do with the commission.
[Great!]: So, what exactly is the content of the commission?
【Hera Above】: There is a restaurant in the metropolis with good food, but it is so popular that it is always difficult to make a reservation for a single seat.
【Hera Above】: But reservations for two people are easy to get, so I've been thinking about finding someone who's also interested in dining to go with.
I was just about to ask on the platform when I saw your request for help—so, are you interested in this? This is the content of my request.
【Hera Above】: You can think of it as sharing a table with strangers, which might reduce some of the psychological pressure.
[Great!]: ?
Jaeger covered his face.
After all that, I thought the other person had contacted me because they needed something important.
So, it turns out she's just looking for someone to have dinner with, Ms. Consultant!
Jaeger had shared meals with others before, but this casual way of finding people—[Hera Above]—was a completely different story.
To put it in a more mystical way, maybe my post just happened to appear on her homepage, making her feel like we were destined to meet.
But after thinking about it, Jaeger decided to press for an answer.
[Great!]: I'm fine with it.
But wouldn't it be easy to cause misunderstandings if you casually invite people from online platforms to dinner?
[Hera Above]: That's why I said it's a commission, essentially a transaction.
【Great】: ————What about security?
The West Coast is quite chaotic, and social media is full of all sorts of people, so it's easy to run into danger, lady.
[Hera Above]: Thank you, but there's one thing I can be sure of—I'm unlikely to be in danger.
"?" Jaeger was confused.
Why would an archaeology expert be so confident, completely unconcerned about the dangers of meeting people online?
You can't expect archaeologists to unearth some ancient artifact that instantly kills any bad guys who get close, can you?
Oh well, I'm going to the Metropolitan Hotel anyway. There's a commission fee and good restaurants, so I might as well go.
Moreover, like Hera above, Jaeger is very confident in his own security.
This is the confidence that the poker table gives me.
So in the end, Jaeger chose to accept this somewhat strange commission (speaking of which, none of the commissions he's received so far have been normal), and followed [Hera Above] on social media, agreeing on a meeting place and time for next week.
P.S.: I just finished class and quickly wrote a little bit. I'll continue writing after I have some food. I'll post it as I write it. The word count is a bit low at the beginning, but I'll make up for it later. Today's word count should be at least 10,000 words.
