The next day, Mo Xiao got up early, changed clothes and washed up, only to find that someone was already busy in the kitchen.
It's Ye Xiaoying, she is preparing breakfast for three people.
Mo Xiao stared blankly. When there were the most tenants in the past, the kitchen of this old house was only for their own use. Each tenant would rather get a complete set of gas stoves in their own rooms than use the nominal public room outside.
In the kitchen, although we all live together and never see each other, the alienation can never be eliminated.
But now... Mo Xiao suddenly felt a strange feeling, and an inexplicable warmth grew in his heart.
"Good morning, breakfast is porridge, do you mind?" Xiaoying also saw Mo Xiao, and then raised her hand to say hello.
"Just feel free to do it." Mo Xiao replied with a smile.
"That mouse hasn't gotten up yet?"
"Do you want me to call you?"
"No, just put it on the table and wait for him to wake up and eat it himself."
Today Mo Xiao is going to take Xiaoying to buy mobile phones and various daily necessities, and to get familiar with the neighborhood.
"Well... I hope everything goes well."
There was a knock on the door immediately, neat and powerful.
"Who is it so early..." Hearing the knock on the door, Mo Xiao immediately ran to open the door.
The door opened, and what appeared in front of Mo Xiao were two men and one woman. They all had stern faces and were very unfamiliar. At least in his mind, he had never seen these three people before.
"Excuse me, what can I do?"
Mo Xiao secretly guessed whether it was door-to-door sales. In this small place on the outskirts of the city, salesmen often come to provide services, just to catch old men and women who are easy to fool and steal their wool.
Mo Xiao hated these people deeply, so naturally he didn't look down upon them. Just as he was about to close the door, his eyes saw something unusual...
The small and exquisite crossbow hanging on the waist can feel its extraordinaryness just by looking at it.
Mo Xiao's pupils shrank, thinking of Shu Mo's reminder, he couldn't help but secretly groan in his heart. Sure enough... He had set up a flag all over his body from yesterday to now, and now he bumped into the monster hunter before he even went out. p>
"Is it him..."
When Mo Xiao was looking at the other person, the other person was also observing Mo Xiao. The only woman among the three asked in a low voice to the man next to her.
"It's not like... full of energy and blood, and there is no disgusting smell. The rumors are wrong."
"Let me test it again." The female demon hunter suddenly took a step forward and asked, "Little brother, are you surprised when you see the crossbow arrow on my friend's waist?"
Mo Xiao's heart thumped. It seemed that his unnatural expression just now was noticed.
He immediately wanted to deny it, but he immediately suppressed the idea. Denial would only make the other party feel that he had a guilty conscience, which would make him even more suspicious. If the other party was really suspicious, then the two residents of his house would be in trouble.
Nine times out of ten, it will be exposed.
At this time, you must be calm and find a good reason to explain.
An awkward smile appeared on Mo Xiao's face, and he asked eagerly: "I just think the crossbow arrows are beautifully made, and I don't mean anything else. If you don't mind, can you give me a price? Or tell me where to buy it.
? I want to COS Van Helsing at the City Comic Exhibition in October, and I just need a crossbow like this."
If the other party is willing to offer a price, then their status as monster hunters will be in doubt. If the other party is unwilling to offer a price, they will only think that they are a fanatical two-dimensional enthusiast, which will naturally eliminate suspicion.
The three demon hunters were speechless for a moment. They looked at Mo Xiao as if they were looking at a lunatic. The demon hunter's crossbows were made of special materials, with added holy silver and exorcism spells. The cost was extremely high. Even if they were to be sold, they were not
An ordinary citizen can afford it.
"How about it? Should I sell it? In fact, I don't mind if the price is higher. Let's discuss..." Mo Xiao seemed not to know, but still kept asking, his eyes were eager, as if he was looking at a lover.
The female demon hunter felt a chill, and she couldn't bear it and said: "This crossbow was made by my friend and is not for sale."
"So that's it." Mo Xiao pretended to suddenly realize: "Then can I make one? Everything is easy to discuss..."
The other two monster hunters couldn't stand it anymore, so they took the female monster hunter and walked out: "Let's go, let's talk to him. Do you have a lot of time?"
Watching the three people leave, Mo Xiao reluctantly walked outside the gate of the small courtyard. When no one could see him anymore, he calmed down his expression and let out a long sigh of relief.
He feels that he is a born actor.
"Has the demon hunter left?" Xiaoying stood behind him at some point and asked with a smile.
"You've seen it all, and you still ask me?" Mo Xiao smiled and closed the door, "Aren't you very nervous?"
"We've dealt with each other many times, so it's probably a habit." Xiaoying looked indifferent and didn't take it to heart. She asked, "Wouldn't it be weird if I go out wearing this outfit later?"
Her attire did not change at all from yesterday. Only then did Mo Xiao belatedly wonder: "It's very normal. It's similar to the attire of modern young girls. Hiss...were you so avant-garde more than a hundred years ago?" Isn't it? Xiaoying's outfit is not outdated now, but if it was more than a hundred years ago, it would be regarded as a strange costume.
"Flag suits or underskirts are really not suitable for activities. I designed this suit myself. It is light and flexible to wear. As for what humans think of me, I don't care."
Mo Xiao scratched his head and asked: "You don't care why you ask now?"
Xiaoying said matter-of-factly: "If you are traveling with me, I have to consider your feelings. Besides, if you are too conspicuous, wouldn't it be easy to attract attention? Did you just forget about it after the monster hunter left?"
"Well...you're right." Mo Xiao nodded, as expected, he still has experience in living a long life.
"Eat! Hurry up and go to the street after eating, I can't wait!"
...
Half an hour later.
Mo Xiao took the cat demon girl on the bus.
"I said...this big iron box is indeed much more powerful than a horse-drawn carriage, but isn't it a bit too crowded?"
"There is no other way. The bus directly to the city center only takes half an hour, so bear with it."
Mo Xiao consciously protected the cat demon girl in front of him. He was also helpless. Not only were the remote roads in this poor place on the outskirts of the city not good, it was even difficult to get a taxi. Today happened to be a market day again, and the flow of people was more than before.
Several times, the carriages are full. Unless the municipal planning tilts in this direction, the status quo will continue for a long time.
Fortunately, they arrived at the station soon.
"Get off the car."
"Eh...are we here yet?"
Mo Xiao naturally grabbed the cat demon girl's wrist. Unexpectedly, she fell asleep standing in the car at this moment. When she raised her head in a daze, a big word "cute" suddenly appeared in Mo Xiao's mind.
Mind.
His heartbeat seemed to speed up a little.
After finally squeezing out of the bus, this place is only a few hundred meters away from the university where Mo Xiao graduated. I chose to get off here because it is familiar.
"These... are houses, right? They can all be lived in?"
The high-rise buildings around the cat demon girl are full of surprises written on their faces: "Where we live, I think the houses are very high. Now when I compare them, it's just...how long have I been sleeping..." p>
She had some doubts about the demon beings. After living for thousands of years, the changes were far less significant than in the past hundred years. If Mo Xiao said that this is the kingdom of heaven, she might believe it.
The feeling in the suburbs was not so obvious, but what she saw now was completely different from the world in her memory.
