Chapter 15 Chapter 15 "Neighbors on the same floor?"
"Is this, a mockery?"
Li Huanhuan was holding the pressed duck and looking at the note in his hand with a strange expression.
He actually said that the pressed duck she bought was so salty that it was choking?
Inexplicably, the desire to win was aroused.
She looked at the pressed duck in the bag. She wanted to see if this pressed duck was really better than the ones she bought. !
Li Huanhuan did not return the pressed duck like he did last time, but took it back home and into the kitchen. Paired with rice and sauerkraut vermicelli soup, Li Huanhuan's meal is ready.
10 minutes later.
Li Huanhuan looked at the pressed duck in the bowl with mixed feelings. It was indeed better than the one she usually bought from. How could there be such a big difference? Compared to the pressed duck of her neighbor No. 150, her pressed duck looked like a pirated CD with poor quality.
"Damn, how can it be so delicious?" Li Huanhuan ate with relish while being in disbelief.
"Meow~"
There was a soft cat meow under my feet.
Li Huanhuan lowered her head and saw Her Majesty the Cat squatting in front of her with his head tilted back, his emerald green eyes looking at her expectantly.
"Your Highness, pressed duck is not acceptable."
Li Huanhuan pinched the triangular cat ears.
Canned cat food is okay, but pressed duck is too salty for cats and will cause their fur to fall out.
"Meow~" Your Highness the Cat lay on the ground, rolled over, revealing his soft belly, trying to sell his "beauty" in exchange for food.
Li Huanhuan held the duck leg and stared at the snow-white and soft belly of His Majesty the Cat. His heart was beating hard for a second, but he finally came to his senses in time before any disaster happened.
"hateful."
She rubbed the cat's belly hard and was slapped.
Without pressed duck, the cat prince, who had been showing his belly and acting coquettishly before, immediately turned ruthless, and transformed from the soft and easily pushed "Cat Daji" into the "Cat Overlord". He stood up arrogantly, shook off the cat hair on his body, raised his fluffy tail, and turned to walk towards the living room.
Li Huanhuan pinched the pressed duck leg, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
But in the end, the pressed duck given by neighbor No. 150 ended up in Li Huanhuan's stomach.
It is impolite not to reciprocate.
Since her neighbor gave her such a delicious gift, she had to find something more delicious than pressed duck to give it back, otherwise, the "desire to win" aroused in her heart would not be eliminated.
Yes, Li Huanhuan, who has always been lazy, was aroused by a piece of pressed duck into a foolish desire to win.
Li Huanhuan went through all the takeouts in her favorites, and then asked her best friend Xiaojing for advice on her "Top Ten Food List".
In the following week, she and her neighbor at No. 150 across the street fell into some inexplicable vicious circle, and they started to compete with each other for no apparent reason.
Today, you gave me pressed duck.
Tomorrow, I will definitely reply to you sweetly.
Okay, you are a sweet-skin duck, but the sweet-skin duck you bought is not authentic. It is full of the taste of internet celebrities and is not as fragrant and tempting as the one from a certain restaurant in the nearby county.
…
So, like this.
Originally, it was just one party apologizing, but gradually, it turned into a food competition, and later, it even became a food exchange.
However, Li Huanhuan had never seen the neighbor at No. 150 opposite.
She is a stay-at-home and seldom goes out.
But the neighbor next door seemed to have some "unspeakable secret". He also went out early and came back late, and was elusive.
Qin Shi wasn't being elusive on purpose, he was just walking his dog.
As a dog owner, you go out for a walk at dawn, before you open your eyes; at night, under the stars; in windy and rainy weather, scorching hot weather, even if it's hail or knives raining from the sky, you still go out for a walk... These are the "basic exercises" of countless dog owners.
Even though he is the protagonist of this world and a professional player with top traffic in the e-sports circle, Qin Shi still cannot escape the fate of walking his dog "rain or shine, day or night."
What's more, he raised a Husky, which had a particularly high demand for activity.
Perhaps the occupancy rate of this residential complex was really low, Qin Shi did not encounter any strange stalkers, nor were there any ignorant paparazzi who came to him, so he had a good holiday.
I even had a different kind of fun in the "food exchange" with my neighbor No. 149, whom I had never met before.
It's like two people know each other's existence and know how to easily obtain each other's information, but like stranger "pen pals", they exchange "ideas about food" through paper and pen, and no one takes the initiative to break this tacit understanding.
This also brought a different experience to Qin Shi.
He was curious about his neighbor at No. 149, but it was just curiosity. He didn't think of taking the initiative to break it all and face the person behind the identity of "Neighbor of No. 149" directly.
He had no interest in the real person behind the door.
Of course, his vacation was not all relaxing and fun. There was at least one thing that troubled him. The source of his distress was his husky "BBQ".
The grill was also a pain.
The source of the barbecue troubles came from Qin Shi’s neighbor at No. 149, opposite the house. To be precise, the cat owned by neighbor No. 149.
BBQ is a unique Husky. In other words, he is a very weird Husky. Like other Huskies, it has plenty of energy, but at the same time, it is a dog that loves cats very much.
In short, the cat's licker.
The most direct manifestation is that BBQ likes a white cat named "Your Highness the Cat" on the Internet. Every time His Highness the Cat goes live, Lu Bu will be like a "pervert", lying in front of his computer/tablet/mobile phone, wagging his tail at the white cat on the screen.
When Qin Shi first accidentally clicked on the live broadcast room of [His Royal Highness the Cat], this pet live broadcast account had very few fans. There are few people watching the live broadcast and the live broadcast time is unstable.
Qin Shi opened a dog account for his silly dog. In order to keep the cat's live broadcast and make his silly dog happy, Qin Shi accidentally made the silly dog's account [If you don't eat hot pot, eat barbecue] become the number one in the [Your Highness the Cat] live broadcast room.
No one would have thought that a dog would become number one in the live broadcast room.
Every time His Majesty the Cat broadcasts live, BBQ will squat in front of the live broadcast room. If the other party takes a leave and there is no live broadcast on that day, the barbecue will become particularly depressed and no spirit will be raised.
Of course, Qin Shi didn’t mean that His Highness the Cat had any relationship with the neighbor at No. 149 opposite.
The "distress" he mentioned was that after Lu Ke became fascinated by "Your Highness the Cat" in the live broadcast room, he seemed to have become fascinated by the cat of his next-door neighbor.
Qin Shi had never seen the cat.
According to his cousin Dongfang Jiao, she did not see the cat from neighbor No. 149 that day. He didn't know what magic the cat had, he only knew that his silly dog seemed to be possessed, and every time he went out for a walk, the barbecue would want to rush into the house of his neighbor across the street.
Of course, the other door was closed.
Barbecue is like a dog that squats at someone's doorstep and wags its tail non-stop, appearing extremely enthusiastic, humble, and flattering. Sometimes, Qin Shi couldn't be pulled back, as if he was eager to "sell himself as a servant" on the spot and become the dog of No. 149's house.
He was "exchanging food" with the owner of cat No. 149. This dog-licking behavior of the barbecue was like two armies fighting. Before the outcome was decided, it raised the white flag and surrendered. It was really embarrassing for him.
Qin Shi thought.
However, an accident made Qin Shi and barbecue become "allies of mutual respect".
Early in the morning, before dawn, Qin Shi went outside to walk the dog as usual. This community has inconvenient transportation and a low occupancy rate, but fortunately there are several parks nearby with nice scenery, which is suitable for jogging, walking the dog, and taking a walk.
Qin Shi was worried about being recognized, so he deliberately chose a remote path. On the way, he met two middle-aged men who were wearing "divine clothes" and running breathlessly. Everything looks perfect.
He ran around the park with the barbecue and came back before 8 o'clock.
Logically speaking, at 8 o'clock in the morning, Li Huanhuan should not have gotten up yet. Even if he had, he would not go out so early. But early in the morning of this day, Li Huanhuan received a call from her mother Su Mei while she was still asleep. Su Mei said on the phone that a friend of hers sent a box of local specialties to their family and left it in the guard room, and asked her to go downstairs quickly to get it.
"Mom, later, I haven't gotten up yet..."
"Will it be later? Look at the time now. Your uncle Liu has gone out fishing with his fishing friends. Hurry up and get the box from the guard room. It would be bad if someone took it away."
…
Someone had indeed lost something in the community’s guard room.
Although it is only a matter of probability, it has indeed happened. Li Huanhuan understood Su Mei's worries. Sometimes, once a certain idea comes into people's minds, they can't help but think about it in a bad direction.
What if?
What if someone took it away in advance?
Li Huanhuan couldn't help but worry.
Finally, I had to do something "against my normal routine" and went to the guard room downstairs to get something at 8 o'clock in the morning. When she arrived at the guard room, she found that the things were not lost, but they were a little heavy.
She took great pains, and walked towards the apartment building in the community, panting and sniffing, holding the local specialties.
Downstairs in the community.
Qin Shi came back with the barbecue.
When he got to a place where there were people, he pulled on his mask, trying to keep a low profile as much as possible. However, his height and appearance do not allow him to keep a low profile. Even if you don't pay attention to the e-sports circle, Qin Shi's appearance will attract passing uncles and women to subconsciously look back.
"Huh?"
Qin Shi stopped.
He seemed to have seen a figure who looked very much like Li Huanhuan downstairs in the apartment building just now.
Li Huanhuan.
This name made his brows furrow.
"Woof!"
The barbecue, squatting at my feet, made a cry.
Qin Shi was pulled out of his memories.
How could there be such a coincidence? Li Huanhuan happens to live in this community?
He must have dreamed about her last night, which is why he was in a trance.
However, it was not a good dream. In the dream, Li Huanhuan held Fox's hand, stood opposite him, and said to him with a smile that the person she liked was Fox and he was just a blind date for her.
Then, Qin Shi woke up from his dream.
When he woke up, it was still daylight outside, but Qin Shi had lost his sleepiness. I couldn’t sleep, so I changed my clothes, took the barbecue downstairs, and went to the park for a morning run.
Qin Shi shook his head in self-mockery.
In the evening, Qin Shi came back from walking the dog and met the property manager downstairs. Behind the housekeeper, there was an anxious middle-aged woman. The housekeeper told Qin Shi that the middle-aged woman was his neighbor on the same floor and that her house had been robbed but they could not find any clues. Seeing that Qin Shi’s door lock is an electronic lock with a camera on it, he wanted to borrow Qin Shi’s surveillance to see if he could find the thief who broke in?
"Neighbors on the same floor?"
Qin Shi's gaze fell on the middle-aged woman.
