Chapter 40 Returning Home
◎Hey, my fiancé is so old◎
"Or, why don't you wait for Dahei to wake up and ask him directly?" Seeing Xiaoman talking more and more, Qin Shu was silent for two seconds, and finally couldn't help but speak.
"Ah?" Xiaoman was stunned when she heard that.
"If you find it hard to understand, just communicate with the snake in question until you understand."
Perhaps Qin Shu's words were too matter-of-fact, Xiao Man had no idea how to refute her and just stood there thinking about life.
At this time, Xu Wen walked over, followed by the disheveled Zhou Yin, and waved to Qin Shu.
Qin Shu saw that Xiao Man would not come out of her thoughts about life for a while, so she walked over to Xu Wen and asked, "What's wrong?"
"The snake was poisoned with the same poison as Old Lady Chen's."
"Because you swallowed Old Madam Chen?" Qin Shu frowned.
"No, the old lady's poison is in her internal organs, not on the surface. So Dahei must have swallowed the poison directly. Zhou Yin tracked down the snake before you came. She will tell you the details."
As soon as Xu Wen finished speaking, Zhou Yin immediately took over. "I went to the tribe where these left-behind people are currently gathering. Dahei must have been poisoned after consuming the latest batch of supplies distributed by the Federation with Old Lady Chen. The supplies arrived here at noon today and were unloaded. Because Old Lady Chen is highly respected, she has always been the one to receive the supplies before distributing them to everyone. However, she took her own portion at noon and ate it first, and then something happened to her. However, because of her misfortune, the supplies have not yet been distributed. As for Dahei, according to investigations, he was rescued by Old Lady Chen while out playing before, and he became familiar with her. Old Lady often fed him, and he must have eaten the supplies with Old Lady Chen today. I guess he realized something was wrong, so he brought Old Lady Chen back to seek help."
"Federal supplies..." Xu Wen's bad premonition came true in an instant.
Even Qin Shu's expression became unusually serious.
"We have brought back all the supplies, but as for those who stayed behind...Xu Wen, you have to go and negotiate." Zhou Yin sighed. After all, not only did people die, but there were also problems with the federation's supplies.
"Why don't you let me go with you?" The elegant heroic spirit stepped forward and said.
"Who are you?" Zhou Yin was a little confused.
"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself. You can just call me Kong Ming."
Xu Wen was stunned when he heard this, then he suddenly raised his head and looked at the elegant heroic spirit who was waving a feather fan, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Okay."
This was the first time Qin Shu saw Xu Wen express his affection so openly.
"By the way, Boss, there has been some progress with Merlin. I'll go and help you deal with this matter first?"
"Yes, thank you for your help, sir." Qin Shu responded quickly.
Sure enough, just as Kong Ming said, around midnight, cheers finally came from Merlin's side.
But in just a moment, Qin Shu saw Merlin running towards her in a hurry. Most of his white beard and hair were burnt off, and the rest were charred and curled up. He didn't care and rushed directly to Dahei.
At the same time, the lights in the base suddenly went out. Just when everyone was a little frightened, the researchers at the base used a loudspeaker to comfort everyone: "Emergency, power outage for five minutes, everyone be patient."
As he spoke, someone brought the base's energy equipment and placed it directly behind Merlin, then made an "OK" gesture to Merlin.
"start!"
Merlin placed his staff on the ground, and light suddenly appeared on the energy devices that were moved over. Qin Shu took a closer look and found that each energy device was painted with a different and complicated magic circle.
"Boom--" As the equipment started up, the magic circles suddenly became extremely dazzling from a faint glow.
At the same time, the lights slowly gathered into a glowing thread and directly penetrated into Merlin's magic wand.
Merlin began to chant, using pronunciations and syllables that Qin Shu had never heard of before. His voice was very low, with a wonderful rhythm and intonation. Soon, his staff became brighter and brighter. As his last chant fell, a golden magic circle appeared around Dahei again.
Unlike the magic circle that just flashed by, the golden light of this magic circle was more dazzling. Dahei, who was enveloped in it, was obscured by the golden light. Ten seconds later, the light of the magic circle disappeared, and Dahei, who had been sleeping, finally slowly opened his eyes and spit out his snake tongue.
"Dahei!" Xiaoman stood up immediately upon seeing this, and subconsciously wanted to hug her partner, but was blocked outside by the barrier. Fortunately, Yun Shangjun arrived in time and removed the barrier, so she was able to enter.
"Dahei, you scared me to death! Woo woo woo."
"Thank you everyone." Qin Shu knew that Xiaoman was very excited at the moment, so she helped to thank everyone.
The researchers didn't say much and moved the energy equipment away directly. After a while, the lighting in the base was restored.
Xiao Man finally reacted at this time and hurriedly thanked Meilin and Yun Shangjun again. Finally, she gave Qin Shu a bear hug and said, "Boss, I love you! I will work like a slave for you!"
"...I have no shortage of cattle and horses." Qin Shu sighed helplessly.
Merlin was also very happy. He subconsciously stroked his beard, and then realized that most of it had been burned off. He was stunned by the movement, but he quickly put the matter behind him. "Well, I've completed my mission here, so I'll be leaving now. I'm anxious to go back and study the new things I learned today."
"good."
As Qin Shu finished speaking, Merlin disappeared from everyone's sight.
"What is the boss thinking about?" Yun Shangjun couldn't help but ask when he saw Qin Shu looking thoughtful.
"Do you know about the Bigu Pill?"
"certainly."
"I'm just wondering if this thing is really necessary, like using it to improve nutritional supplements or something like that."
"Why do you suddenly have this idea?"
Qin Shu didn't explain: "Just think of it as a sudden whim."
"I can't give you a definite answer. I'll try again after I finish what I'm doing."
"Yeah." Qin Shu nodded in response.
…
Thunderstorms come and go suddenly.
Qin Shu had originally prepared to stay on this radioactive planet for two more days, but who would have thought that the thunderstorm would stop in the second half of the night.
Because the problems with Xiaoman and Dahei had been solved, and Qin Shu could not intervene in the case of investigating the unknown poison for the time being, Xu Wen simply sent her home first, and then hurried to the Interstellar Federation Parliament.
Seeing that she had missed the class, Qin Shu simply took a day off and rested at home.
I have to say that Radiation Star is really not a place for people to stay. It should be okay to stay outdoors for a short time without wearing protective clothing, but Qin Shu happened to encounter a thunderstorm and the radiation increased. Even though she has a very strong physique, she was so exhausted that she just wanted to sleep and recuperate.
So the sleepy Qin Shu had no time to check what had happened in her home, and she had no time to check the messages her terminal had received during the shutdown period. She even just washed up and then fell on the bed and fell asleep.
She seemed to hear her terminal ringing twice, but because she couldn't open her eyes, she simply ignored it. After all, if something really happened to Xu Wen, they would come to her house directly if they couldn't contact her.
…
And the other side.
The manager glanced at his artist's furrowed brow and sighed helplessly, "What? Still can't get in touch?"
"It was turned on, but it didn't answer my call."
"Since it's turned on, it proves that she should be fine. You don't have to worry too much." Du Xiangyin rarely spoke a sensible word and did not tease Lu Yishen.
This made Lu Yishen look at him a little more in surprise.
"Please, I know how to speak appropriately according to the situation, okay?" Du Xiangyin didn't even need Lu Yishen to ask. He only needed a glance to immediately understand what Lu Yishen wanted to express.
"I always feel a little uneasy, after all, she had an accident last time."
"Shouldn't they be in school at this hour? We're going back tonight anyway, so why don't you just confirm the situation yourself?"
"...I'll go talk to the director and discuss concentrating all my scenes in the morning. I'll go back in the afternoon." Lu Yi took a deep breath and then strode to the director to discuss.
Seeing this, the agent sighed helplessly: "Hey, in the past few years since debut, I have always strictly followed the crew's schedule. Now I have to take the initiative to adjust my schedule. Love really makes people change so quickly."
After expressing his feelings, the agent did not forget to step forward to help Lu Yishen coordinate the entire schedule for today.
…
Qin Shu slept very deeply, so deeply that she didn't feel hungry at all. It was not until the uncomfortable feeling of fatigue was mostly gone that Qin Shu woke up in a trance, and then she got up slowly and prepared to go downstairs to eat something.
As a result, she had just opened the door when she suddenly found a dark shadow standing on the stairs leading to the second floor.
If Qin Shu's eyesight wasn't very sensitive even in the dark, she might not have noticed the figure.
The figure was now exploring the environment and deliberately lowering his footsteps, which looked very suspicious.
"!" Qin Shu suddenly became alert when she saw this. Relying on her vision advantage in the dark, she ran forward without saying a word and kicked the man in the waist. While he was in pain, she grabbed his wrist and twisted it, forcing him to squat down. Then she raised her knee and pressed it firmly against his back.
The moves were smooth and flowing, and the man was completely subdued in just a few seconds.
"Hmm!" The muffled groaning sound coming from the darkness sounded very familiar.
"Huh?" Qin Shu was stunned when she heard that. "Who are you?"
"...your fiancé."
"..." Qin Shu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and finally remembered that she did have a fiancé, and that he had indeed said that he would be back at the end of the month. "Lu Yishen?"
"Um."
Qin Shu quickly let go of the other person and then pulled him up: "Sorry, my hand was a bit heavy, but why didn't you turn on the light when you came back?"
And sneaky.
"I opened it, but it didn't light up." Lu Yishen said helplessly.
Although Qin Shu couldn't see Lu Yishen's expression clearly at this moment, she felt that he must be speechless.
"There is a light in my room... ah, I see." Qin Shu hadn't finished her words when she suddenly realized why Lu Yishen couldn't turn on the light.
Because all the devices in this house are connected to Qin Shu's terminal, and Qin Shu's terminal has been turned off, these devices are naturally turned off by default. There is a light in the bedroom because there are emergency lighting in both the bedroom and the bathroom.
"Come with me first." Qin Shu thought it through and quickly took Lu Yishen's hand and walked towards her bedroom.
