Lin She wore a dark grey turtleneck sweater inside his black windbreaker, covering his neck. He looked like a dark painting.
Below the neck, the skin gradually hardens and scales grow.
"Eggs." His dark green eyes glanced at the box, his black lips barely moving as he mumbled the answer in his throat.
Gu Huaiwei was guessed right away. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "How did you know?"
"I smell it."
Gu Huaiwei moved her nose, but she couldn't smell anything at all.
So, she asked, "Lin Snake, although it's a bit strange to ask this, but... are you human?"
Linshe's short black hair was smooth and draped on the side of his face. His dark green eyes were like gems, cold and dark, with a mysterious luster.
Without saying a word, he just looked at Gu Huaiwei quietly without blinking for a long time.
Like a machine that has been disconnected, it did not answer this question.
Gu Huaiwei felt a tingling sensation on her spine when she saw him looking at her.
Although the forest snake did not show any aggression, the gaze was uncomfortable.
I can’t describe the feeling, it’s like I’m being haunted by something ominous.
"Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask." Gu Huaiwei changed the subject. It's better not to pry into other people's secrets.
"Okay." He answered quickly, as if he suddenly came online.
This time, he brought a lot of things, filling up the entire employee warehouse, leaving Gu Huaiwei with no place to rest at night.
Lin She sat in the hall most of the time, and Gu Huaiwei had never seen him sleep.
Sometimes at night, he would open his red umbrella, go out in the radiation storm, and then return when the store opened in the morning.
He never said where he went.
Gu Huaiwei never asked.
The upper city is far away from the Oasis Hotel. Even if Lin She were to go there, he would not be able to go back and forth within a day.
The plan to let Lin She distribute flyers at the entrance of Shangcheng District was put on hold for the time being.
However, as a technology geek, Lin She developed an APP that can connect to the world's underground city network through unremitting efforts, allowing customers to select and book rooms online.
Gu Huaiwei uploaded the photos in the hotel room into the APP. Even without adding beauty filters, the theme room was as beautiful as a paradise on earth before the nuclear doomsday.
The APP was successfully launched. Gu Huaiwei took advantage of the lunch break to cook hot pot in the hotel, took out iced cola, and celebrated with Lin She.
The smell of hot pot filled the entire hall.
In the hotel, Qian Duoduo, who was drinking strawberry-flavored nutrient solution, smelled the hot pot outside, smacked his lips, and felt that the expensive nutrient solution in his mouth was bland and tasteless.
It was obviously my favorite flavor before.
But it can't compare to the spicy and delicious smell coming from outside.
Traditional meat and vegetable dishes are difficult to preserve, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and fail to provide complete nutrition.
Aside from being delicious, there's nothing good about it.
Only those people in the upper city who have no pressure to survive would eat these things.
Thinking of this, Qian Duoduo took a deep sip of the pink nutrient solution.
The smell of the hot pot not only made Qian Duoduo's stomach churn like a washing machine, but also made the other guests in the hotel feel uncomfortable.
Although more than 200 years have passed since the extinction of species caused by nuclear explosion.
But the instinct engraved in their bodies makes them crave traditional food.
The nutrient solution only keeps them alive.
It cannot satisfy their desire to eat.
After injecting the inhibitor, Xiao Youqi originally wanted to lie down on the bed in the hotel and rest for a while.
The smell of hot pot kept him awake.
He weighed the gold coins in his hand and took the elevator downstairs.
There was no space in the employee warehouse, so Gu Huaiwei got two small stools and cooked hot pot behind the counter during lunch break.
When Xiao Youqi found her, she was sitting in front of the steaming hot pot, using a serving chopstick to pick up green leafy vegetables from the clear soup pot.
The soup base was clear and transparent, with a few tender green vegetable leaves floating in it. The delicious aroma seduced Xiao Youqi's buds.
He swallowed.
“Gulp—”
The sound is particularly obvious.
Gu Huaiwei heard the voice and raised her head: "How about you eat something too?"
A smile appeared in Xiao Youqi's silver-gray eyes.
He was just about to save his gold coins and sit down shamelessly to have a meal, but he felt an extremely unfriendly look.
In just a moment, it cut through the air and shot towards him like a sharp blade.
Xiao Youqi suddenly came back to his senses and looked in the direction where the coldness had just come from.
Gu Huaiwei saw Xiao Youqi's body stiffen for a moment and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"No...it's okay." Xiao Youqi took out three gold coins from his pocket, "I'll buy you a small bowl, and you won't have to sit here and eat."
"sure."
Gu Huaiwei took out two empty bowls and gave him the dishes from the butter pot and the clear soup pot respectively.
Fresh green leafy vegetables, tender tofu, chewy shrimp balls... I picked up some of each with serving chopsticks.
"Here, it's for you." The bottom of the bowl was a little hot, so Gu Huaiwei put a wet towel under it and gave it to Xiao Youqi.
"Thank you very much."
"You really don't want to sit down and eat together?"
Xiao Youqi glanced at Lin She warily: "No need."
"Okay." Gu Huaiwei shook the gold coins in her hand, and raised the corners of her lips. "Next time you want to eat, you can come to me again."
After saying that, Gu Huaiwei threw another bottle of ice cola to Xiao Youqi.
"This is a gift, please come and patronize us."
Xiao Youqi's fingers were holding the cold Coke bottle, which seemed to contain liquid...
It seems that it should be a precious water resource.
"Thank you." Xiao Youqi accepted the Coke. He never had too much water.
