When a guest comes, no matter what he does, he can't refuse. It's probably around 3:30 in the afternoon, right?
"So, guest, you left Nanako behind and came right away, right?"
Zhuge shook his head and said: "It's not...me. I didn't dare to look at her at that time. I found an excuse to go home and another excuse to come out."
"Nanako-san will definitely feel very disappointed."
With a frightened aftertaste, Zhuge was silent for a while, and then said in a trembling voice: "Nay...what is she? Why can...can..."
He really didn't want to think about the scene he had witnessed not long ago, and he was extremely hoping to hear the answer he wanted to hear from this strange shopkeeper.
"Clay." Luo Qiu had no intention of hiding it because he didn't ask before, so he didn't tell him. Now if he asks, he will tell him. The club has always been honest.
"Clay?" Zhuge opened his mouth and said in disbelief: "How is that possible!"
"Does the guest think it is impossible for Nanako who has appeared in front of you...?"
"I, I'm not..." Zhuge shook his head, and then said quite angrily: "But what I paid is..."
Luo Qiu suddenly said coldly: "Guest, do you need me to evaluate the value of what you have paid? Our club does have a set of standards for evaluating the soul of guests."
Zhuge was startled and suddenly felt an inexplicable fear.
He was afraid of hearing some facts from the shop owner's mouth... something he had heard almost all the time since he was a child.
"I'm not...I just..."
He suddenly didn't know what he wanted to express because Nanako was just made of clay, so he asked angrily? But when he recalled the request he made at the beginning, he just wanted Nanako to return to him, and he had not defined what Nanako was.
What.
Originally...it was just a virtual character in a mobile game.
Just clay…
Zhuge suddenly understood why Nanako would never eat in front of him, why she could only cook egg fried rice, and why... he had never touched her when she was washing. Even in the park, after being sprayed with water,
will become so panicked.
Nanako was afraid that if her body would melt after getting wet, would it...scare herself?
Does she think so?
Zhuge swallowed and finally asked what he really wanted to ask, "Does she... have her own thoughts?"
It has been some time since Nanako actually appeared. Nanako would always stay with him, watch him eat, watch movies with him, chat with him online, and even play games with him. Never
When you feel bored.
This is very abnormal.
This...isn't normal!
Yes, how is it possible to have such a girl who takes care of everything silently and yet always maintains that sweet smile.
"Isn't this what you want as a guest?" Luo Qiu said: "Those who care about you and are willing to chat with you will not look down on you."
"Me!" Zhuge fell silent for a moment. He suddenly felt an unprecedented irritability.
That is, even if I was ridiculed by the people around me, even if I was rejected directly after confessing my love to a girl due to puberty hormones a few years ago, even if I am just a small role in the office, I have never been so irritated.
"I...I'm going back."
Zhuge stood up immediately and walked towards the club's door without looking back.
"Welcome next time, guest."
When he was going out, Zhuge heard the boss's voice behind him. He paused for a moment, but in the end without saying anything in response, he pushed the door open and walked out.
Zhuge's second arrival did not make any deals.
…
You Ye came over, picked up the scented tea that Zhuge had not drunk at all, and put it on the tray held by Qin Chuyu. Qin Chuyu turned around and left without saying a word... She still didn't understand why she really
are doing this kind of work.
"No improvement at all." You Ye was beside Luo Qiu at this time and said softly: "But it was a bit strange to suddenly get wet from the sprinkler."
Luo Qiu took off his mask and then held up the teacup. Thinking about his sudden interest in betting with Taiyinzi, he suddenly asked: "Fifty years should be a long time, right?"
Perhaps for You Ye, it is not that long... but for Luo Qiu, fifty years is already twice as long as his life.
You Ye only answered Luo Qiu's question with a smile.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it." Luo Qiu shrugged, "By the way, how are you doing with the research on that sacred stone?"
After leaving the underground tomb in Ulaanbaatar, the sacred stone was handed over to Youye for safekeeping. Boss Luo, who has always been a good housekeeper, naturally felt that it would be more cost-effective to let the knowledgeable maid study it than to spend time to identify it himself.
You Ye lived up to expectations and said: "Currently, we have conducted radioactive testing and material analysis based on Zhang Jiao's description of it. The material should not be a known material. In addition, in terms of radioactivity, it has been very active in the past. I detected
A very weak ray is emitted, which can quickly penetrate the metabolism of cells."
"Is that why spring blooms out of dead trees?" Luo Qiu asked curiously.
You Ye nodded and said: "Well, yes. However, the radioactivity on the sacred stone has been attenuating. I guess it is the characteristic of this ray itself and cannot be released permanently... In general, this may be an external
A meteorite fell from space.”
"Meteorite..." Luo Qiu nodded: "What about absorbing souls?"
You Ye said: "It should be the instinctive reaction of the meteorite itself. If the soul is also regarded as spirit, what it absorbs is actually things like spiritual waves. What's interesting is... there seems to be a kind of something being nurtured in this meteorite.
A very special life.”
"It's alive?" Luo Qiu was suddenly surprised.
You Ye was not sure: "It's hard to say... I've never seen such a thing. But it probably doesn't have its own consciousness yet. Even if it absorbs mental power, it seems to be just an instinctive reaction. Maybe this is related to its ability to
What is the key to the birth? Next, I plan to do another X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy and JP analysis. If there are any further findings, Youye will inform the owner as soon as possible."
Therefore, Boss Luo, who had no idea what X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy and Jipu Analysis were, could only nod his head.
As a boss, he is somewhat of a scumbag and feels as awkward as a god of learning.
"Okay, if it's okay, I'll go out for a while."
Ren Ziling... was also thrown into a fast asleep in that restaurant.
…
…
Zhuge put his hand on the handle of the door of his rental house, and for a long time he couldn't open the door with force. He didn't know what he was hesitating about, but he just felt that his mind was blank... That scene he couldn't bear to see always lingered in his mind.
Not going.
But the door opened immediately.
As usual, Nanako stood at the door, "Zhuge, you are back!"
Zhuge stared blankly at this face with a sweet smile, but his body instinctively took a small step back.
"Zhuge, what's wrong with you?" Nanako looked puzzled, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Nanako stretched out her hand and touched Zhuge's forehead.
The face that made him feel extremely happy came closer and closer, but the scene of removing the head also became extremely clear in his mind.
clay……
All of a sudden, she seemed to turn into a pile of upright mud in front of Zhuge... a pile of mud, approaching him.
Horror!
Getting closer, getting closer.
"Don't!"
Almost instinctively, perhaps out of fear in his heart, Zhuge subconsciously waved his arm and slapped away the palm that was about to hit his forehead.
"Zhuge..." Nanako stared at this scene blankly, her sweet smile seemed to disappear all of a sudden, "Did you...see, when you were in...the park..."
Zhuge also looked at his palm in a daze...
I...what the hell...
"I...I...I..."
Back, back, back, Zhuge felt his mouth dry for a while, turned around and ran down the stairs crazily.
"Zhuge!"
He was downstairs, and it seemed as if he heard a cry that sounded like crying... But he wanted to run, run as far as possible, and his happiness seemed to be shattered in an instant.
