"Quite simply, since there's no clue that she left, she's probably still here."
Faced with this sentence that seemed to make sense but was actually very nonsense, Liang Shan fell into silence, and the flies in the room seemed to be a little quieter.
Half a minute later, Liang Shan said: "You're here today, you haven't had dinner yet? Come on, I'll help you make hot pot to get rid of the smell."
Zhong Cheng said: "I just said..."
Liang Shan: "Can you eat spicy food?"
"I just… "
"If you can eat spicy food, I know there is a delicious restaurant nearby. I'll treat you to it."
When Liang Shan didn't answer, Zhong Cheng lowered his dark eyes, looking a little aggrieved.
Yin Ren felt a little sympathetic to his new partner, but there were more important things at the moment—
"I can especially eat spicy food." Yin Ren said seriously.
"There are situations that Xiao Zhong mentioned, but they are very rare. The phenomenon is like C-B4, 'gap'."
Liang Shan learned this and quickly scooped up a bowl of green vegetables: "Anyway, keep your heart in your stomach. If it really involves the 'gap', it will be Fu Bu and Li Bu."
Zhong Cheng said that half of the potato on his chopsticks fell off: "Hotel?"
"In short, 'gaps' are a very dangerous phenomenon. Fanghua Apartment has a large flow of people. If a 'gap' appears nearby, Shi'an will not notice it."
Yin Ren: "The 'gap' you just mentioned..."
Put the meat in the pot, the thin and tender meat slices are rolled in hot oil, and the fresh shrimps and meatballs are floating in the thick soup. The combination of vegetables and red soup is so beautiful that it whets your appetite. The wide noodles soak up the soup and are crystal clear on the fried rice. The cooked meat skims the sauce, and when you bite it lightly, the delicious flavor explodes on your tongue.
"I know that you and your parents live in Xizhao District, two hours' drive away. Why bother? Why, do you have pets at home?"
Zhong Cheng said: "Okay, then I don't like spicy food."
Zhong Cheng nodded and stretched out his chopsticks to fish out the potatoes.
"What to eat?!"
"No, but..."
"I see."
Liang Shan popped open a can of beer and was moved by the scene: "Oh, I brought new people together last time, and I don't even know what happened a few years ago—"
He glanced at Yin Ren who was happily chewing, and ordered two more plates of lamb.
Liang Shan raised the colander seriously, intending to fish out the meat, but only got half a spoonful of spices.
"Don't stress too much. There will be plenty of time to study tomorrow. Have an early rest tonight and I will pick you up at the hotel tomorrow morning."
"Well, I've booked a double room for you. Don't worry, Shi'an will reimburse you."
"The cause of the 'gap' is unknown, and its location is relatively fixed. It will grow and die on its own. In the early stages of the gap, ordinary people will be able to come back soon after entering the gap. When it grows up, it will become something that makes people unable to come back. 'The fork in the road. At present, there is only one growing gap in Haigu City, which is under the control of Shi'an."
"Then it's settled. When you go on missions in the future, it's standard to have two people as partners. It's better to get used to it as soon as possible."
Yin Ren said "hmm" in his mouth and buried his head in eating. He could have a few extra mouths or even a head to talk back, but Liang Shan and Zhong Cheng said they probably wouldn't like that sight.
"Don't bother, I have a house in Haigu." Zhong Cheng said sincerely.
The spoon stirred the tip of the chopsticks back and forth, and the white mist on the pot was so thick that it was difficult to see anyone.
Zhong Cheng said, turning his head sideways and putting down his chopsticks.
"That's good." Liang Shan looked directly at Zhong Cheng and said, "I won't be able to explain what Xiao Zhong just said for a while. Let's talk while eating later."
"I'll order some more meat. What else do you want to eat?" Liang Shan stood up and shook the menu.
"You guys choose, uh, choose to send them to the front desk." She said while retching, and the evacuation speed was as fast as fleeing.
Yin Ren was eating some crispy pork, with five empty Coke cans stacked in his hand. He was surrounded by a warm and happy atmosphere that made people unbearable to disturb him.
Liang Shan showed the pained expression of someone who had been there before: "Remember, after going out to such a scene, you have to eat hot pot and barbecue. Otherwise, you will be full of body odor and will feel uncomfortable walking on the road... Xiao Yin, Xiao Yin, please take it easy, his food is large. big!"
"No, I just think what Brother Zhong said makes sense. There's still a possibility that 'she didn't leave'." Yin Ren swallowed the food in his mouth, "Since you said the cause of the gap is unknown, that means you have no control over it. The understanding is actually not that deep.”
Yin Ren stopped ticking in disappointment - his eyes were bright and he checked almost all of the meat section, especially ordering two portions of brains. Zhong Cheng said it was polite, and besides two plates of lean meat, he only ordered a vegetable platter and soy milk.
The hotpot is not a high-end brand store, and the decoration is quite homely. Everyone smelled bad, so Liang Shan specially booked a private room. It was obvious that Liang Shan was a regular customer, so the boss quickly served the pot and gave away three bowls of ice powder.
The end of his sentence is long and vicissitudes of life, which is quite tempting to answer.
Yin Ren raised his eyes and specially cooperated to slow down his eating speed.
Zhong Cheng said nothing and silently lowered his head to rinse the mushrooms.
He stopped talking, and Liang Shan suddenly realized that there seemed to be someone who had been unusually quiet during this meal—
Liang Shan lowered his head in loneliness: "Okay, let's get down to business."
Liang Shan: “…”
Zhong Cheng said he was sitting upright, but he stopped talking: "Mr. Liang, I just..."
The mandarin duck pot has a fragrant aroma, and the hot and spicy taste evaporates with the water vapor.
"Walking a familiar road and taking a familiar car ends up in a place I have never seen before. Or staying in a space with many people, leaving for a while, and not seeing half of the people when you come back... We call this kind of situation 'entering the gap'. From the perspective of others, the person who entered the gap has indeed disappeared." He glanced at Zhong Cheng and said, "It can be understood that he accidentally entered the gap in time and space, that's all."
The three of them had a paper menu in hand, ready to order. The waitress swayed around as if she wanted to take a few more glances at Yin Ren, but in the end she couldn't resist the almost terrifying stench in the private room.
"That's what I said..."
"Then don't rush to a conclusion. There are always exceptions to everything." Yin Ren smiled, his smile shining brightly along with the pile of Coke cans.
Liang Shan subconsciously wanted to refute, but there was a subtle power in the other person's words, so he swallowed it back subconsciously. Zhong Cheng said he looked at Yin Ren with some emotion and pushed a bottle of soy milk over.
Yin Ren happily accepted it and quickly started the next round of sweeps. Liang Shan had just eaten a lot of luncheon meat, and he watched helplessly as it entered Yin Ren's stomach.
Liang Shan: “…”
never mind.
The rest of the chat was not very nutritious. Liang Shan was concerned about the late weather, so she just picked out some interesting stories from the police station and told them. The three of them had enough to eat and drink, and soon left.
The hotel Liang Shan booked for the two of them was very close to the hot pot restaurant. It was a regular hotel with stars.
The hotel room is spacious and clean, and there is a light fragrance in the room. The two single beds were covered with snow-white sheets, and the air conditioner blew cool breeze.
Yin Ren was holding two cans of iced Coke and stood silently at the door—
He went upstairs first, and before he had time to put it in big letters on the bed, he was kicked out by Zhong Chengshuo, who was carrying large and small bags. After sending the person to the door, Zhong Cheng said that he started cleaning like crazy...
This person is working hard to clean every corner of the house with disinfectant spray in his left hand and alcohol wipes in his right hand. He even wiped the shower head and hung two disposable bath towels in the bathroom.
"One suggestion, don't use a hot water kettle to boil water for drinking." After finally finishing cleaning, Zhong Cheng said, taking off his glasses and wiping the sweat from his forehead. Yin Ren: "...Okay."
He wouldn't use it anyway. But is this a normal practice for modern people? Why does he feel that it doesn't look like it
Looking at this posture, if Zhong Cheng said he knew what kind of environment he was sealed in before, it wouldn't have been meat cooked in a hot pot, but Zhong Cheng said he was soaked in alcohol.
"Well, I'll take a shower first, and you can choose a bed."
Zhong Cheng said he didn't see through the strange psychology of his new partner. He walked into the bathroom and the sound of rushing water soon sounded.
Yin Ren raced against time to take out his mobile phone and study the mystery of this thing on the spot.
He quickly discovered the input function, but he couldn't understand the meaning behind the messy symbols on the keyboard. Fortunately, after a few minutes, Yin Ren was able to input handwriting.
As he clicked on the browser, the new world suddenly became wider.
As a pragmatic evil spirit, Yin Ren quickly decided on the first search topic—
Lord Ghost King carefully poked the screen and wrote the words "How to use a mobile phone to call for help".
There was a vast amount of text found. Just as he was trying to operate the buttons, his phone suddenly emitted a sharp and loud alarm sound. Yin Ren's hair exploded and he almost dropped his phone.
The emergency sirens were so high and urgent that they almost pierced people's eardrums. Yin Ren was so noisy that his brain hurt. He grabbed his cell phone and rushed to the bathroom to knock on the door.
"Brother Zhong, can you turn off this sound..."
Before Yin Ren finished speaking, the fragile bathroom door was cracked to the ground by him.
Perhaps he had too high expectations for this era, thinking that frosted glass would be as hard as wood. Before Yin Ren could knock a second time, the frosted glass door died in the line of duty, and fine pieces were scattered all over the floor.
The good news is that Zhong Cheng said he was some distance away from the glass door and was not injured.
Bad news, the incident happened suddenly and Zhong Cheng said he had no time to dodge. He was rinsing his hair and happened to be facing Yin Ren.
This body and Zhong Chengshuo are both male, so there should be no problem of male and female being intimate. Yin Ren originally thought so, but Zhong Cheng said that he obviously didn't think so - his expression froze and he turned his back almost immediately.
However, Yin Ren had already seen everything clearly.
He didn't understand why Zhong Cheng said he had such a big reaction. In every sense, that body was quite good.
Without the cover of his clothes, the man's smooth body was completely exposed. Zhong Cheng said that the limbs are long and slender, the abdomen is firm, and the body is just right, elegant but not thick.
A very healthy and beautiful human body.
The only flaw is probably the scar.
From the collarbone to the lower abdomen, a huge scar penetrated Zhong Chengshuo's chest and abdomen. It is twisted and twisted, bifurcated at the bottom, and barely twisted into a crooked "human" character. At a glance, the scar looked like a poisonous insect entrenched on his body.
Yin Ren suddenly felt blessed. Most ordinary people find scars unattractive and are used to covering them up. Maybe Zhong Cheng thought so too, and he'd better stop poking at other people's sad things.
So amid the sharp alarm sound of his mobile phone, Yin Ren loudly expressed his emotions: "Oh, the quality of this door is too poor!"
After the villain finished his complaint first, Yin Ren felt that it was a little unfair to the store owner. He lowered his voice and pulled at the glass with his slippers for a while: "Forget it, I'll pay for it. Can Shi'an get an advance on his salary?"
Zhong Cheng said that there was still foam on his head. He faced the corner and said with a lot of fatigue in his voice: "... What do you want from me?"
"Cellphone alarm cannot be turned off."
"Press the top power button three times."
"oh oh."
"... We'll talk about the rest later. I'll just take care of the glass. You go out first."
Yin Ren knew he was in the wrong and sat back on the bed angrily. Zhong Cheng said that when he came out again, he had already changed into the same Shi'an cultural shirt, but it was a long-sleeved one. He didn't wear glasses, and looked at Yin Ren with a pair of black hole-like eyes.
"I will say hello to Mr. Liang and see what he says about the broken door."
What followed was a period of ten seconds of silent staring.
Zhong Cheng said "Don't ask anything" written on his face, and "I don't ask anything" written on Yin Ren's face. In this strange tacit understanding, Yin Ren was the first to laugh, and Zhong Cheng also curled up his lips.
"I've packed up all the glass on the floor. You can wash it now." Zhong Cheng said and started to unpack the pile of shopping bags.
When Yin Ren came out of the shower, he found a cake on the small table beside his bed. The cake is square and square, with a light yellow cake base covered with fresh cream and a bright red maraschino cherry embedded in the middle.
It exudes a wonderful sweet aroma that arouses people's emotions.
Zhong Cheng said he was leaning on his bedside. He was still wearing a long-sleeved shirt and was reading on his widescreen mobile phone.
Yin Ren beamed with joy: "Given it to me?"
"Well, there is a very famous cake shop nearby. This product is limited in time and my family likes it very much."
"Aren't you going to eat?"
Yin Ren was sure that Zhong Cheng said there was no cake aroma on his body. There was no cake beside his bed, only a bright red apple.
Zhong Cheng continued reading: "I won't eat it. Don't touch the cake in the refrigerator. It's what I gave to my parents. If you like it, you can buy it yourself tomorrow - I contacted Mr. Liang just now. Considering your situation, I know Ann will pay you two months’ salary in advance.”
"real?!"
"But I have to be there when you consume it."
Yin Ren's movement of digging into the cake froze. Does this mean they will be partners for more than two months? What to do with his lazy dream!
Fortunately, the cake was delicious enough. After one bite of the light cream, all Yin Ren's frustration exploded into confetti. Then, he realized a subtle problem.
"Brother Zhong..."
"Um?"
"Did that girl raise something?"
Zhong Cheng said putting down his phone: "Probably not. The information states that her neighbors have not heard any strange noises recently. And there are no animal hair or pet supplies in her room."
"She bought something she didn't like to eat and didn't give it away. She probably raised it." Yin Ren held the cream cake with a solemn expression. "Maybe the thing she raised didn't have hair and didn't need other supplies."
Many evil creatures don't shed hair and don't like to use food bowls. He is familiar with this.
Zhong Cheng said: "..."
Zhong Cheng said: "... maybe."
He looked at the cake on the plate and then at Yin Ren, with a complicated expression on his face.
He didn't really want to investigate the source of Comrade Yin Ren's inspiration.
The author has something to say:
It’s so funny, you don’t just need to be a partner for two months, you will be my partner for a lifetime√
Xiao Zhong was exposed.
Xiao Yin: What a healthy human being! (Glad)
Maybe it’s the fruit knife’s passive skill activation (
