"That ferocious beast is the Yin Village Divine Dog. You were the one who saved it. Why don't you keep it with you?"
A few days after the black dog Jisha was sent away, Zhong Cheng asked this question.
Zhong Cheng said that when he asked, he was spreading egg pancakes in the kitchen. When the weather got cold, Yin Ren himself grew up under the quilt, and he couldn't even leave the house to get freshly baked fried dough sticks.
But Zhong Cheng said he could get him out of bed.
At this moment, the Great Heavenly Master was holding Zhong Cheng from behind, smelling the aroma of egg cakes and the smell of his lover.
"It is a dog. It likes to protect its family members and needs a lot of time to accompany it." Yin Ren buried his face on Zhong Chengshuo's shoulder. "We don't need its protection and don't have that much time to spend with it... It lives in Human families are happiest.”
Yin Ren actually considered Zhong Cheng talking about his parents, but it was just not appropriate because he was already old.
At present, it seems that the former divine dog is doing well - in the photo sent by Lu Xiaohe, there is a soft doghouse next to his parents' bed. The black dog lay happily inside, wagging its tail and creating a large afterimage.
Yin Ren took out the dog things and couldn't help but click on the photo album to look at the dogs. He had just admired it for a few seconds when a call came in.
"Hello?"
[My name is Little Red Riding Hood: Wow]
Yin Ren looked at the empty living room and his tone became serious.
[Sister Xu Malatang - 20% off discount for new store opening: Oh, it’s true, I haven’t seen it for a long time]
Yin Ren stopped talking meaningfully.
[Xingwang Repair Station (repairs all kinds of household appliances): Maybe she is getting married]
"It makes sense." Yin Ren made a long silence.
After that, he bit Zhong Cheng's ear again: "I want to find it with you, just the two of us. If he is still alive, he must be handed over to the police."
After all, rather than attracting attention, Yin Ren hopes that the Nine Groups will function normally and not disband. Although some people criticized the speed at which Group Nine was promoted from Grade C to Grade A within half a year, they shut up in front of Group Nine's terrifying resume.
[BOOS Supreme Evil Emperor: It’s the King of Hell! Hahaha, I just said that the King of Hell is fine! ! !]
He looked past the frantically scrolling screen and looked at the hamster mobile phone chain Zhong Cheng said - it was scarred, the golden paint was faded a lot, and it looked gray and pitiful.
[yamaglad: Hello everyone]
[Xinxin Kennel:…]
It’s New Year’s Eve in less than a month. The day before New Year's Eve was the birthday that Zhong Cheng said he had given to him. On that day, Zhong Cheng said that he would definitely prepare a birthday gift for him. It will be interesting to think about it when the time comes to exchange it.
[My favorite is the sky: But the King of Hell never says hello]
Peaceful days always pass very quickly.
[BOOS Supreme Evil Emperor:? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?]
Day after day passed, information about the other side and Yuan Wu was gradually released. Under the strong request of Yin Ren himself, Shi'an did not disclose his identity internally, whether he was a "god" or a "great master".
"Go find it." Yin Ren bit the egg pancake.
More than half a month has passed, and the day before New Year's Eve has quickly arrived.
"Looking for it?" Zhong Cheng said, picking up a small piece of egg cake with his chopsticks and holding it to Yin Ren's mouth.
In an instant, the screen in the Night Walker chat group was frantically refreshed. Zhong Cheng said he put away his phone with satisfaction: "In this way, we are recognized as partners."
[No brain:?]
"It's different. A lover is the best partner, but the best partner may not be a lover." Zhong Cheng corrected him seriously.
[BOOS Supreme Evil Emperor: I confirmed the ID, it’s really the King of Hell, not that idiot faker]
"I am Fu Xingchuan." Fu Xingchuan's voice was full of resentment. "All the missing persons have been identified and settled, and there is no 'Ashen' you are looking for. I took a look at the police records of the murder case of Hutao's family. He has been In a state of disappearance—this kid is either dead on the other side, or alive incognito."
[yamaglad: Accept difficult tasks, only evil objects. Two-way choice, don’t bother with other matters. Applicants with beautiful scenery and profound food culture will be given priority.]
[Lao Zhang Pancake Fruit 028: Huh? The King of Hell has taken a wife]
Yin Ren's smile faded a bit: "Well, thank you for your hard work."
"You don't need to point out the personal relationship." Yin Ren rested his chin on Zhong Chengshuo's shoulder and looked at the screen.
After saying that, he hung up the call directly.
The one belonging to Yin Ren was destroyed, but Zhong Cheng said he still insisted on carrying this one. Perhaps because this was the first gift he gave him, until now, Yin Ren always felt that this thing was lonely and the omen was not good.
"I'm going to Shi'an for a walk." Yin Ren finally let go of Zhong Cheng's back and swallowed the egg pancake with a ball of wings.
Comrade Xiao Zhong carefully shoveled the egg cake onto the plate, took out his spare cell phone from his pocket, and opened the Night Traveler Forum.
He had thought of the timing.
Getting ready for a birthday!
Yin Ren wrapped the wooden box with red paper and black ribbon and hid it in the employee locker. Today, it was finally going to come in handy, and he carefully put it into his backpack.
Since the King of Hell is coming back, as the lover and partner of the King of Hell, it is better to give him a better gift - such as a new love token that is easy to carry.
[yamaglad: If you are interested in sending a private message, it will end in one minute.]
"Okay." Zhong Cheng said that he was there and continued to bake pancakes.
"But before that, I want to know the real situation back then. If that guy wasn't just crazy about pollution..." He has to suffer a little extra.
Zhong Cheng said and tilted his head, his dark eyes widening slightly. He smiled: "I understand."
[yamaglad: @yamagald is my lover, and we will undertake tasks together in the future.]
But today Zhong Cheng said that his behavior was abnormally normal, and he seemed to have forgotten the birthday he had personally decided.
Yin Ren felt desolate in his heart - if Zhong Cheng really forgot, he would give the knife to him next year.
Yin Ren melancholy found an ice cream shop and ordered a deluxe set meal. He decided to run away for an hour as a subtle reminder to Zhong Cheng that if the guy couldn't remember it again, he would... He asked Zhong Cheng to invite him out for a birthday dinner, and then confiscated the wing pillow for one night.
The bored Great Master opened the circle of friends.
[Wanliang: Occasionally I feel that life is really good.]The accompanying picture shows Ding Lizi and Ding Lizi clinking glasses at the bar.
[Earman: I’m training hard today too! [muscle]]
[Galaxy: Half of the beef dumplings made at home were eaten by dogs. Who is the biological child?]The picture is of a big black dog lying on the sofa watching TV.
[Zi Qiu Duofu: I can’t stand it anymore. Some people really value sex over friends. They won’t even ask me to eat the hot pot!] Li Nian and Meng Huai both liked it below.
[Let me see your heart: Skynet is so sparse and sparse, what a terrible person... [News link]]
The link is the news about the arrest of the murderer of the "Hu family massacre".
The article briefly introduced the murder case of the Hu family in Ping An Community that year, and the fact that the murderer came all the way to Haigu to surrender more than 20 years later. The article stated that with everyone watching, the murderer cried and shouted for the police station to lock him up and sentence him. What exactly happened is still unknown.
Yin Ren gave a thumbs up.
Further down, the seventh group made a wish to be promoted to the Class A investigation team in the new year, and the eighth group prayed for more bonuses at the end of the year. Liang Shan shared the promotion of paying attention to safety at the end of the year, and Gao Mengyu showed off the cat at home... I don’t know why, but there was a dark picture mixed in many pictures.
Everyone was happy, only he was worried.
Yin Ren stuffed the last scoop of ice cream. Just when the sky turned from dark blue to black blue, Zhong Cheng said there was news. [Final success: Let’s go home and eat. It’s not convenient to eat out today.]
[Fruit Knife: Huh? Why?]
[Final success: cakes are prone to spoilage when taken out.]
[Fruit Knife: Oops]
[Fruit Knife: You really remember! [sun]]
[Final success: I will put it in my calendar on the day I promised you.]
[Final success: Remember to buy a handful of green onions when you come back.]
[Fruit knife:... [OK]]
Yin Ren put on his scarf and returned home carrying a handful of green onions. This was his first birthday in the world, and Yin Ren didn't even take the elevator, creating a sense of ceremony step by step.
The feeling of anticipation is amazing.
Finally, with a creak, the door opened. Warm air hits my face.
The room still had a comfortable warm light, and the floor had just been cleaned and was slightly moist. Among the lush green plants, there are many freshly pruned roses. The sofa in the room was recently changed to a comfortable model with a larger seating depth, and a blanket was thoughtfully added to it.
Huang Liang buried himself in the carpet, almost spread out into a cake.
Before even seeing the dining table, Yin Ren smelled several of his usual favorite dishes, as well as his favorite aroma of chocolate.
"I'm back!" Yin Ren greeted happily.
Zhong Cheng said, wearing an apron, he came up to pick up the green onions from Yin Ren's hand.
"Stop!" Yin Ren hid the green onion behind his back, "I also prepared some gifts for you."
Zhong Cheng said and blinked. He stopped where he was, with a look of anticipation on his face.
"Here, open it and take a look." Yin Ren took out the gift box from the bag, "You can take that hamster out every day and you won't be afraid of it getting damaged. Just take it with you from now on."
Zhong Cheng said he sat down on the shoe-changing stool and unpacked the shoes gently.
The red paper blooms and the wooden box slides open. Dark red soft silk was placed in the exquisite wooden box, with a dagger lying quietly on it.
The dagger is completely black and its tentacles are warm, the same color as the wings. But its blade is covered with bright red and delicate lines, and the lines are constantly changing, just like a living thing. The red color is extraordinary and beautiful, and it is even more confusing than the original "evil result".
Zhong Cheng said that holding the dagger in both hands, he always felt that the knife looked familiar.
"This is the one I brought into the world, and I want it back from Shi'an." Yin Ren said with a smile, "There is a living wing ball inside, and my blood is attached to the blade. It can be compared to evil consequences. Qiang-Yu Lan is too ostentatious. If you want to continue acting as the King of Hell, you must have a handy weapon. "
"It can destroy everything, but it does not cause indiscriminate damage. You just need to hold it in your hand and say hello to it. When it is not activated, it is no different from an ordinary dagger."
Zhong Cheng said, looking at the dagger blankly, then turning it around in his hand a few times.
Very warm weapon.
"I'll make a scabbard tonight." Zhong Cheng said, grabbing the dagger tightly and refusing to let go.
"I knew it. Let's go and eat." Yin Ren put down his backpack proudly.
Zhong Cheng said honestly and stepped aside, revealing the entire dining table. The lights are extremely warm, and the sumptuous dishes on the table are steaming hot. The most eye-catching thing on the whole table is a six-layer chocolate cake.
It is as tall as a tower and is decorated with bright red berries and snow-white icing. And on the top of the cake, a dark chocolate rabbit with messy features was made.
It's exactly the same as what Yin Ren remembers.
"This counts as letting you eat me." Zhong Cheng explained seriously, "I didn't deny it at the beginning."
Yin Ren burst out laughing: "Okay, okay, I forgot. What happened when I was fighting with Aiyi, I have completely forgotten it since today!"
He laughed for almost two or three minutes before he came back to his senses and said, "No, this cake is too big. Where did you buy it?"
It doesn't seem to be a birthday cake style, but more like...
"Because it's your first birthday, I want to make it special. But I really don't know how to make it special. I can only add some other meaning to it."
Zhong Cheng admitted it frankly.
"Other meaning?"
"Here you go." Zhong Cheng said taking out a small box from his pocket.
The box is also rectangular, but much smaller than the dagger just now. Yin Ren felt it for a while but didn't feel any special power. No matter how much it shook, there was no sound inside.
Can't guess.
Yin Ren decisively opened the box, and immediately after, all his jokes got stuck in his throat.
Inside are two rings.
The color scheme is gold and red, which is as happy as the original little hamster. The pure gold ring is embedded with half an apple composed of white diamonds and red enamel.
The right half of the apple ring has "carefree" engraved on the back, and the left half of the apple ring has "beginning and end" engraved on the back.
Zhong Cheng pointed to the ring expectantly: "Look."
Yin Ren: "Huh?"
Give him a ring, he understands. With two rings, he couldn't figure out this man's brain circuit for a moment.
"Although we are not suitable for human laws, on the surface, I want to form a family relationship with you." Zhong Cheng said with all his heart, "If you are willing, pick the one you like. If you are not willing, take both." Come on, you can wear it differently." Yin Ren: "..."
Yin Ren: "You... forget it!"
He took away the ring with "carefree" written on it and put it directly on his ring finger. Zhong Cheng said as he took back the box, a little sparkle appeared in his dark eyes.
He took two steps forward and kissed the corner of Yin Ren's mouth.
"Yin Ren, can I use this dagger to cut the cake?"
"It's not impossible... Leave the rabbit to me, leave the whole thing to me -"
"OK."
"Speaking of which, have you ever thought about it. If I agree with you, my gift will be reduced by half."
"ah."
“And there’s one less day to celebrate in the future.”
"ah… "
"Okay, don't freeze, I won't take your dagger back. Let's do this, I will eat up this cake today!"
"I will consider a new anniversary."
