Because Taotie, a big eater, was here, Xiao Xiao divided the cake in advance to prevent other monsters from not being able to eat it.
Seeing Taotie staring at the cake next to him with a look of dissatisfaction, Xiao Xiao flicked its forehead with his fingers and said, "Okay, these are yours too."
Xiao Xiao also placed the extra toast he bought in front of Taotie.
Seeing that there was more food than any other monster, Taotie nodded reluctantly, but there was a smile in his eyes.
Obviously I was still very happy.
...
Taotie suddenly felt that Xiao Xiao looked a little more pleasing to the eye.
After all, the other party is very discerning and knows how to please himself.
A certain monster became trembling for no apparent reason, causing Phi Fei to look at it strangely.
…
After eating the cake and listening to Pipa Ghost's performance, Xiao Xiao waved goodbye to Pipa Ghost.
The rain is still falling.
"Crackling~"
The raindrops made a crisp sound as they fell on the ground.
Xiao Xiao waved to another car.
...
Xiao Xiao was very happy when he unexpectedly met the long-lost Pipa Ghost and listened to the Pipa Ghost's performance.
However, his own situation made him frown.
Compared with when it is completely wet, the clothes are half dry and stick to the body, which is more uncomfortable.
Now he just wants to go back to the dormitory quickly, take a hot bath and change clothes.
…
The car drove quickly into the rain and fog.
I got off the bus halfway, so within ten minutes, I became familiar with the surrounding scenery.
Yanda is coming soon.
…
After getting out of the car, feeling the coolness of the water droplets on his face, Xiao Xiao smiled helplessly. This time he thoroughly "enjoyed" the artistic conception and romance of a "walk in the rain".
…
Xiao Xiao didn't delay and walked quickly towards the dormitory building in the rain.
After entering the dormitory building, he couldn't help but feel relieved.
However, the sticky feeling on my body became more and more severe.
…
"Dong dong~"
Xiao Xiao knocked on the door because he didn't want to take the key out of his wet pants pocket.
…
"Lao San, you're back, you-"
Zhang Bo's loud voice came out as the door opened.
Immediately, the voice stopped suddenly. Zhang Bo looked at Xiao Xiao's embarrassment with some astonishment, and grinned in amusement, "Hey, third child, this is a drowned rat."
…
Xiao Xiao rolled his eyes, pushed Zhang Bo away and walked into the dormitory.
He doesn't have time to argue with others now.
…
"Lao San, why did it happen like this?"
Zhuge Yun looked "shocked" and said, "Didn't you find a place to hide from the rain?"
"Exaggerated."
Xiao Xiao glanced at Zhuge Yun lightly.
It's a pity that this guy doesn't want to act.
…
"Third brother, why didn't you ask us to pick you up?"
Zhao Luzheng looked at Xiao Xiao who was wiping his face with a towel, picked up Xiao Xiao's water glass and poured him a cup of hot water.
…
"It's already wet anyway."
"It doesn't matter if it gets wetter."
Xiao Xiao took off his pajamas from the bed. He didn't want to go out today.
…
"Yes, the heavy rain before was so sudden."
Zhuge Yun curled his lips, "A lot of people must have been 'succumbed', right?"
"Um."
"I'll take a shower first."
Xiao Xiao turned around and closed the toilet door.
…
On this day, Xiao Xiao was holding a kettle and making tea. "Buzz buzz~" the phone screen lit up. Xiao Xiao turned his head and saw that it was an unfamiliar number, so he ignored it.
While he was holding the tea cup and sipping, the phone that had just gone dark lit up again, still with the same number.
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows, reached for the phone, and connected the call.
…
"Master Xiao."
A strange yet somewhat familiar voice.
The excellent memory reminded Xiao Xiao of the owner of the voice, "...Meng Jixi?"
"……it's me."
Meng Jixi was a little surprised that Xiao Xiao could hear his voice. After all, they didn't spend much time together, and this phone call had been a long time since their last meeting, so he was stunned for a moment.
Responded loudly.
"Is something wrong?"
Xiao Xiao got straight to the point.
He knew that Meng Jixi "did not go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything" and had a very strong temper.
This time I took the initiative to call him. I must have encountered some difficulty.
Moreover, it is still a difficult problem that ordinary people cannot solve.
…
"Master Xiao, I have something to ask you for help."
Meng Jixi was also a resolute person who never tolerated beating around the bush and talking a lot of nonsense. It was clear that the relationship between the two was no better than a stranger, but he directly stated his purpose.
No, it should be a request.
Although this attitude is not like asking for help.
...
"Master Xiao, when are you free, we can tell you in person."
Meng Jixi speaks very quickly and enunciates clearly.
It was obvious that the matter was a bit difficult, and Meng Jixi's tone was somewhat solemn.
However, Xiao Xiao rubbed the side of the cup with his fingers, and his tone even contained a slight smile, "I don't think I said I wanted to help yet, right?"
...
Xiao Xiao considers himself not a small-minded person.
However, the attitude you should have when hiring someone to do things must always be correct.
What's more, the relationship between them is not a familiar one.
It's so rude...it's not very good, is it?
It's not like he has to rush in to help the other party.
…
"……Feel sorry."
Meng Jixi was silent for a while and realized that his previous speech was not very good. "I was too anxious and didn't control my emotions."
The voice is a little low.
He seemed frustrated by his own gaffe.
He really still lacks exercise.
It gets messed up so easily.
…
"Master Xiao."
Meng Jixi suddenly called out in a deep voice, with a completely different tone than before, showing a bit of depression and anger. But just as Xiao Xiao was waiting for the next words, the microphone fell into silence again.
"Um?"
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but ask aloud.
It seems that it is not a small problem, but it makes Meng Jixi hesitate so much?
…
"...Someone died."
"more than one."
If it weren't for the shallow breathing, Xiao Xiao almost thought the other party had hung up the phone.
Just when Xiao Xiao was waiting for Meng Jixi's words nonchalantly, he was a little confused by the sudden words.
Someone died?
More than one?
So, what to do with him?
Could it be...
...
"This situation is very similar to the last serial murder case in a bar."
"so……"
Although Meng Jixi didn't say anything further, Xiao Xiao understood what the other party meant.
So come to him?
…
This is often the case.
Xiao Xiao was saying before that Yao Jian was short of "food rations". Well, a fat insect relic just arrived before, and now another one is coming to his door?
He lowered his eyelids to block the cold light in his eyes.
"where?"
"ah?"
Meng Jixi was stunned by Xiao Xiao's incomprehensible words.
"Where to meet?"
Xiao Xiao explained understandingly.
"oh."
Meng Jixi suddenly realized, and was a little dissatisfied with his slow response.
He reported the name of a coffee shop near Yanda.
"I am coming now."
After saying that, Xiao Xiao simply hung up the phone.
