First, he picked up a pen and wrote the words "Sunny, nothing happened" in his personal diary. He threw the diary back on the coffee table. Peng Hu said to everyone: "Well, everyone wait, I will go outside to buy some food."
.”
After saying these words, the bald man turned around and left. Just as he was about to leave the house, on the opposite side, He Fei, who had recovered from his thoughts, stood up and called him:
"Wait a minute, Brother Peng!"
………
As mentioned above, because he did not want to starve, the bald man planned to go out to buy some food, but was unexpectedly stopped by He Fei. While stopping him, the young man also specifically turned his eyes to Ye Wei. It was obvious that the straight-tempered man
Although Peng Hu didn't think much about it, He Fei knew that it was not wise to leave the army alone in this situation. What's more, you can't just leave. You should ask the captain for advice at least, right?
As for Ye Wei, strictly speaking, given the current situation, she was not willing to let Peng Hu buy any food. She could also think of the dangers that He Fei was worried about. It was not a good idea to let Peng Hu go out to take risks just to fill his stomach.
, aware of the pitiful looks in Guo Wenke and Fu Yuanyuan's eyes, and the stubbornness of the bald man, Ye Wei nodded after a slight hesitation.
Seeing the female captain nodding, He Fei certainly knew what Ye Wei meant. In fact, even if the other party didn't signal him, He Fei, who like Peng Hu would not fight and was willing to starve, would definitely know what to do. After confirming what the other party meant, He Fei, as expected,
Fei then went straight to Peng Hu and said to him: "Brother Peng, I will go with you."
………
Time, 21:50 at night.
It is undeniable that the lights in the city are often bright and noisy at night, but unfortunately it is limited to the central area. For Sai Wan, which is mostly a residential community, it is relatively quiet.
Leaving the community and standing on the street, at this moment, looking at the scattered street lights around and scanning the storefronts that were almost all closed, He Fei was dumbfounded and Peng Hu was dumbfounded.
"Fuck! He's closed the door, what's going to happen?"
Undoubtedly, looking at this scene, the bald man who wanted to find a restaurant to have a big meal first was immediately confused. After not finding an open shop for a long time, Peng Hu turned his eyes to his side and looked at He Fei.
It was a pity that when he heard the bald man's words and saw his expression of astonishment, He Fei, who had also not expected such a result, was greatly surprised. However, after thinking about it, the young man quickly felt relieved. After all, it was already late at night and the shop was closed.
And that's as it should be.
That's true, but where should they go if they are so hungry?
"Here, if you ask me, I don't know either..."
Facing the bald man's question, He Fei shook his head and smiled bitterly, or maybe he had recognized the reality. After thinking for a moment, He Fei continued: "Forget it, we can't take a taxi to Shizhong District just for some food anyway.
?It seems I have to go back first, or spend money to buy some food from the neighbor's house."
Seeing the young man's answer, Peng Hu couldn't help but dumbfounded. At the same time, just as He Fei made suggestions and the two helpless people were about to go home, Peng Hu was inadvertently stunned.
, but the next second the bald man's face covered with stubble suddenly lit up with joy! Then he patted He Fei on the shoulder: "Hey! Look at that!"
"Um?"
Subconsciously, he turned around and looked in the direction pointed by Peng Hu. At first glance, He Fei's eyes suddenly lit up!
Because, at some point, they saw not far from the street behind the two of them, a store with Xiao Wu Fast Food on the signboard was emitting bright lights. This was undoubtedly a restaurant, a restaurant in operation!
Seeing this scene, the two of them were overjoyed. Peng Hu immediately walked towards the store without saying a word, and He Fei followed subconsciously. However, during the walk, the only thing that made the young man a little confused was...
(This is indeed a restaurant, but why didn’t I see it when I observed it before? Or has this store just opened for business?)
As mentioned before, He Fei is not a careless person. On the contrary, he has always paid attention to details. For now, although it is impossible to deny that the opposite is indeed a real restaurant, the college students are still secretly vigilant as they approach.
Maybe he could choose not to enter the store out of caution and stop Peng Hu at the same time, but in any case, He Fei also understood the truth that grass and trees are all enemies. It is right to be careful, but if you are too careful, you are simply scaring yourself.
(I hope I am overthinking...)
With complex thoughts in mind, the two of them soon walked to the door of the restaurant. As a precaution, He Fei whispered to Peng Hu, who was about to push the door open and enter: "Brother Peng, be careful."
Seeing the young man reminding himself, Peng Hu, who looked rough but was equally careful, nodded as if he had some understanding.
Back to the subject, even though it was late at night, unexpectedly when the two of them entered, they discovered that it was not empty. Looking around, they saw that in addition to the two of them, there were still three customers eating.
, the three of them are all men, and they don’t seem to know each other. They are sitting at different tables and eating silently. When they see other customers eating in the restaurant, as expected, they are even prepared to run away at any time.
Peng Hu couldn't help but feel relieved, and He Fei also relaxed a little, but...
But the things on the table of the three customers are very simple, even exactly the same, noodles. They are all a big bowl of noodles. They are all eating there without exception. It seems that this shop is a noodle shop?
"Hey! A guest is here! Where is the boss?"
After the observation, He Fei didn't say anything. Instead, he and Peng Hu found a dining table near the door and sat down. As soon as they sat down, Peng Hu shouted carelessly in the direction of the kitchen. Soon, a captain
A tall and thin man with a Chinese character face walked out of the kitchen. Seeing a guest, the tall and thin man immediately walked to the table and greeted with a smile: "Welcome to the shop, what would you like to eat, gentlemen?"
There is no doubt that just by looking at the greasy apron this man is wearing, one can tell that the man is most likely the shop owner. Seeing the boss come out to greet him, Peng Hu first shook his face, and then ordered without politeness: "
Boss, first give us a large plate of fried chicken and some cold vegetables, and then prepare 4 bentos for us to take away!"
The bald man gave the order carelessly, but who would have thought that as soon as he finished speaking, the restaurant owner replied apologetically: "Sorry, we don't have what you ordered."
"Huh? What do you have here? Tell me."
“There are beef noodles, fried noodles, noodles...”
"Holy crap, it's all noodles? Where's the other ones?"
"Gone."
As He Fei expected, it turned out that this restaurant was really a noodle shop. After learning from the boss that there was nothing else but noodles, he felt dissatisfied but thought that this was the only shop around... In the end, Peng Hu still noodle shop.
Lu nodded unhappily and said, "Okay, okay, give us both a bowl of beef noodles first."
"Okay, wait a minute, you two."
The Chinese-faced boss returned to the kitchen in response, and the restaurant returned to silence. Let’s not talk about how unhappy Peng Hu was. As for He Fei, he had been observing silently during this period, observing the other three customers, especially those who were opposite them and who were far away from them.
The recent man with short hair is the focus of his observation.
If this person was nothing special at first, he was just a dining customer, but as he watched, He Fei became more and more surprised, because although the noodles in front of the man's table were large bowls, the man had been immersed in slurping them for so long.
The noodles in the last bowl didn't decrease much. If the short-haired man was eating, it would be fine, but why didn't the other two people's bowls also decrease?
Not only that, as the observation continued, He Fei found that the behavior of the three customers seemed... somewhat unnatural, and since he and Peng Hu entered the restaurant, the three people seemed to have been maintaining and repeating this behavior.
The action of lowering your head to eat noodles seems okay at first glance, but after seeing it for a long time...
As he watched, a chill gradually swept through He Fei's body!
"Hey, Peng..."
"Two gentlemen, the noodles are here, please use them slowly."
Sensing something strange, He Fei's face turned paler and he was about to tell Peng Hu. Unexpectedly, the Chinese-faced boss walked out of the kitchen with two bowls of noodles. Seeing this, He Fei immediately shut up and waited for the two bowls of hot noodles.
The noodles were placed on the table. The boss with the Chinese character face said hello to the two of them first. It seemed that the kitchen work was finished. After greeting the boss with the Chinese character face, he did not return to the kitchen this time. Instead, he went straight to the front of the cashier and bowed his head.
The accounts were settled.
All this seems so ordinary and natural, but for He Fei, who is now suspicious, it makes him shudder. The reason is that just now, when the boss with the Chinese character turned around, He Fei went one step further
See... under the bright lights of the restaurant, the ground under the feet of the boss with the Chinese character face...
No shadow!!!
Tick tock!
Cold sweat instantly covered my forehead, and my heart suddenly rose to my throat!
Then, a drop of cold sweat slipped from He Fei's forehead and dripped on the table. Not only that, although he did not speak from the beginning to the end, his forehead was already covered with sweat beads and his face became paler. For a while, the young man
Sitting in front of the dining table in silence, his fearful eyes quietly glanced at the boss with the Chinese character face in front of him who was lowering his head to settle accounts.
"Hey, it smells pretty good."
It's a pity that although He Fei noticed the abnormality, Sun Hu, who had been hungry for a long time, didn't care so much, especially when he saw the bowl of noodles exuding fragrance in front of him, the bald man first grinned,
Picking up a pair of disposable chopsticks.
However...
Snapped!
At this moment, just as he picked up a bunch of noodles and was about to lower his head and put it into his mouth, with a soft sound, the right hand of the bald man holding chopsticks was grabbed by He Fei, and he held it tightly!
