"Tangning?" Lin Yun's voice brought Tangning back to his senses. He put the doll in his pocket and took out all the money in it.
Yesterday, mom gave her 305 yuan in pocket money, and Su Anyun gave her another 400 yuan this morning. Tang Ning spent 200 yuan on fruit cake, and with the money she earned from Zhou's father, she still had 605 yuan left.
The only people standing at the door were Jiang Mianmian, Bai Wuliang and Lu Yuhua. Each of them spent three hundred yuan to buy a bowl of instant noodles, and they still had three hundred yuan left!
In fact, even without the help of her mother's call, Tang Ning could have used the other 300 yuan to get Lin Yun and even the lost Bai Yingxue a chance to be her guest.
"What are you going to do?" Lin Yun asked from the side.
Tangning didn't understand why Lin Yun asked such an obvious question, so she said without hesitation, "Please treat everyone to a meal."
After saying that, Tang Ning put away the remaining 305 yuan and excitedly sent a message to the group, explaining how to successfully stay at Zhou Kang's house. He also said that he would invite everyone to stay.
There was a long silence in the group again.
Tangning checked the signal again and found it was full. She looked at Lin Yun in bewilderment, but saw the same confusion in Lin Yun's eyes. However, this confusion was not about the situation in the group, but about not understanding Tangning's behavior. "You just gave away this precious item?"
When Lin Yun asked this question, the first message appeared in the group chat that had been silent for a long time, and then other messages emerged like copy and paste.
Bai Wuliang: "Thank you."
Jiang Mianmian: “Thank you.”
Lu Yuhua: "Thank you."
Tang Ning received so many thanks at once that she was a little overwhelmed. While Zeng Yishuang's family was fleeing, Lin Yun, Bai Wuliang and Lu Yuhua carried them downstairs, while Jiang Mianmian used marbles to attack the monsters, buying them time to delay.
In the card world, we should unite to fight monsters.
"You're welcome. We're teammates." Tangning sent the message and looked at Lin Yun again. After thinking for a moment, Tangning showed Lin Yun the message on the screen.
This is the answer to Lin Yun’s question.
Lin Yun's eyes shifted from the message to Tangning's face and she asked softly, "Am I your most compatible teammate?"
Tangning pointed at the porcelain doll in her pocket. Her crystal clear eyes sparkled brightly. "Yes."
Lin Yun gave a helpless bitter smile and agreed wholeheartedly.
The doorbell rang again. Tangning ran to open the door for everyone and divided the three hundred dollars equally among the three players.
After getting the money, everyone looked for the cheapest food among the food on the ground. The lowest price of each food here was one hundred. In the end, they picked three cheap foods amid the sarcastic voices of Zhou's father and mother.
"I treated you to delicious food for free, but you insisted on buying it with money. Now you don't eat it right away, but even think about throwing it away when you get home," Zhou's mother cursed.
Bai Wuliang lowered his voice and said to the man, "These foods have some special effects, don't throw them away casually."
Jiang Mianmian, who was squatting at the door holding a porcelain plate, nodded, "Of course it won't fall."
As she spoke, she still couldn't believe that she could complete the guest mission so easily. She couldn't help but look at Tang Ning, who was also squatting at the door and staring at Xiao Mi.
Little Mi has been trying very hard to clean it, but there is too much dirt on it, and it is difficult to restore it to cleanliness all at once. The cleaning task starts with "licking" the base of the cat's tail. Little Mi is trying to lift one of its hind legs and continue the cleaning work despite the obstruction of its bloated belly. The hind leg standing high looks like a big, plump and round chicken leg.
Tang Ning found that during her stay at the Zhou family, her aesthetic taste seemed to have been affected a little, and she unconsciously used various foods when describing things.
He rubbed his temples and looked at the other players, and found that they were all staring at Xiao Mi.
Lin Yun and Jiang Mianmian's eyes were fine, just the way they looked at a cat. Although Bai Wuliang was looking at Xiao Mi with a monocle, Tang Ning knew what he was looking at. However, when Lu Yuhua once again looked at a kitten with that neurotic look, a question mark slowly appeared in Tang Ning's mind.
Can kittens get sick
"What did you see?" Tang Ning asked Lu Yuhua curiously.
Lu Yuhua did not answer immediately. She first glanced in the direction of Zhou's father and mother. After confirming that the two NPCs were eating and drinking heartily, Lu Yuhua lowered her voice and said very softly, "How strange, this monster on the cat..."
"It's actually the same as Zhou Kang's."
The other players looked puzzled when they heard this, but Tangning, who had only heard Lu Yuhua's mumbling, understood what the other party meant. However, although she understood what Lu Yuhua was saying, she became even more confused.
Is it the same monster as the one on Xiao Mi Zhou Kang
Tang Ning remembered that Lu Yuhua said Zhou Kang's monster was very thin
"What monster?" Bai Wuliang raised his monocle and whispered, "Are you talking about the tiger?"
Lu Yuhua didn't have a monocle, so he made an "OK" gesture with his right hand, and solemnly placed the "o" made by his thumb and index finger on his right eye, muttering in a low voice: "What tiger? It's obviously a sick cat."
The other players who were watching the two men's matchup were bewildered.
Zhou's father and mother, who were not far away, looked over here. Zhou's mother said with disdain, "Tsk tsk tsk, I said that the friends that Zhou Kang made were not normal."
Father Zhou raised his glass of red wine and gulped it down. He said simply, "You can tell he's sick at first glance."
After being scolded in public, Tang Ning found it hard to refute. Watching Bai Wuliang and Lu Yuhua talking, she felt like she was watching a discussion meeting with fellow patients.
"It's clearly a tiger, did you see it wrong?" Bai Wuliang said.
Lu Yuhua believed it even more: "It's obviously a sick cat, are you blind?"
Bai Wuliang's eyes turned cold and he stared at Lu Yuhua as if he was looking at some dirty garbage.
Lu Yuhua looked back at Bai Wuliang with even more disgust.
From the first time these two met, they disliked each other. Tang Ning still remembered that Bai Wuliang was disgusted with Lu Yuhua because water kept dripping from his body. Later, Lu Yuhua secretly told Tang Ning that there was a very dirty monster on Bai Wuliang's body.
It doesn't matter if we don't like each other in the cafe, but the problem is that we are still in Zhou Kang's house.
A fair and beautiful hand stretched between the two of them, and Tangning used it to block their line of sight. When Bai Wuliang and Lu Yuhua looked at them at the same time, Tangning nervously smiled a soothing smile.
Although this scene was somewhat different from the Shura Field he had encountered before, Tang Ning's instinct told him to just smile now. After all, you shouldn't hit someone who smiles at you.
The young man is handsome enough even when he is not smiling, and he is even more attractive when his eyebrows and eyes are curved.
Tangning first looked at Bai Wuliang and asked cautiously, "So, you can see its essence, right?"
White no good point.
Tangning then turned to look at Lu Yuhua, "Can you see its true nature?"
Lu Yuhua shook her head, frowned, and took a moment to organize her words to explain: "I can see the bad things following us."
Now it makes sense, Bai Wuliang saw the essence, while Lu Yuhua saw a monster.
That is to say, Xiao Mi is essentially a big tiger, but Xiao Mi is followed by a monster sick cat
However, Lu Yuhua also said that the monster following Zhou Kang was the same as Xiao Mi. Tangning cautiously confirmed, "The monster following Zhou Kang was a very thin sick cat?"
Lu Yuhua point.
"Is it weird to have identical monsters?" Tangning remembered Lu Yuhua's story about her grandparents being kidnapped by a monster. But in reality, Lu Yuhua's grandparents just had Alzheimer's disease. So in Zhou Kang and Xiaomi's case, it could be that the man and the cat had a disease similar to overeating.
Lu Yuhua stared at Tangning, her eye sockets sunken and bloodshot, "It's very strange."
"I've only seen monsters that resembled one family. I've never seen two monsters from two different things that were exactly the same."
"In my eyes, everyone's monster is different, like a fingerprint."
Jiang Mianmian was silent for a while, "What you mean is, do you think this cat is Zhou Kang?"
Lu Yuhua did not refute.
Tangning found it incredible. How could the cat be Zhou Kang? Didn't Zhou's parents just scold Zhou Kang for staying in his room and refusing to leave
"It's really strange. The last time we were here, no cat showed up to chase us away." Jiang Mianmian had a strange expression on her face. "But I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, because Zhou Kang never mentioned the cat in detail. He just said that there was a fat cat at home when I introduced him for the first time."
"But this time Zhou Kang didn't show up, but the cat suddenly appeared."
Not only did it appear, it also played a big role in driving away the players. With the appearance of such a monster cat, Zhou Kang, as the owner, should tell everyone a little bit.
Tang Ning remembered that on the first day of the dungeon, Bai Wuliang used a monocle to look at Zhou Kang, who had been late to show up. In this case, Bai Wuliang should be able to see Zhou Kang's true nature, right
When Tangning expressed this thought, Bai Wuliang shook his head, "I was too far away that time, I could only see the surface."
Bai Wuliang rubbed his chin with his fingers. "But it's very simple to verify this conjecture. Which bedroom is Zhou Kang that we talked about? Just think of a way to bring the cat into the room and see if the cat can appear at the same time, right?"
Tangning couldn't help but say, "How can this be easy? Zhou Kang's parents don't like Xiao Mi to be close to people, and just bringing a cat with him is difficult to achieve."
Bai Wuliang smiled and said, "Didn't you say that in the group?"
Tangning: “?”
"Zhou Kang's father said that money can buy anything in this world." Bai Wuliang raised his voice and shouted to Zhou's father who was enjoying his meal, "Uncle, we want to bring the cat to the bedroom to visit Zhou Kang. Is one hundred yuan enough?"
Father Zhou sneered, "You need to pay more."
Tangning didn't expect this to actually work. She took out a one-dollar coin from her pocket and asked, "What about the one hundred and one yuan?"
