Xiao Ze was dragged into the Childhood Tutoring Center. He didn't struggle on the steps at first, but now it didn't matter.
When the girl found that she couldn't convince him, she would let him go. After all, it was under the overpass.
Lu Yao let go of Xiao Ze, picked up a bubble gun from the shelf, turned around and prepared to go out, and turned back to wave at Erxin who was hiding behind the shelf: "Erxin baby, come and accompany this brother, I'll be back soon."
The three-color gas tank rolled its eyes, stepped on the cat steps and trotted over, rubbing against the customer's legs: "Meow~" Lu Yao's
words always have benefits.
Erxin's little brain is very smart.
Xiao Ze exhaled, it turned out to be a cat.
When the shop owner called "baby", his heart skipped a beat, and he thought for a moment that he had entered a strange shop.
Xiao Ze looked down and saw a large piece of meat leaning against his legs, so he took a step back subconsciously.
The calico pig didn't rub his legs, so it raised its head aggrievedly and meowed.
Xiao Ze's heart softened, and he couldn't help but squat down and carefully reached out his hand.
He took the initiative to touch the head, and the face was big and round, with round eyes.
Xiao Ze was a little surprised. This cat was fat, had a good personality, and had smooth skin. He couldn't stop touching it.
After a few minutes, Lu Yao came back with a bubble gun.
In the evening, a few stray cats came to the door of the store, scratching the glass and unwilling to leave.
Lu Yao fed them something, and on a whim, he used telepathy to read the thoughts of the stray cats and got some strange information.
At the intersection of No. 66 Sanhua Road, there are always people falling from heights.
The stray cats occasionally pass by, but they don’t like to get close.
But the piggy heart is so attractive to the cats that they can’t resist the temptation and run over. They didn’t expect to eat delicious meat cans. Lu Yao
didn’t quite understand it at the time, because after the stray cats’ inner activities were converted into human language, it was a long string of “delicious, delicious, delicious, delicious, delicious” mixed with one or two keywords. Just now,
when he saw Xiao Ze walking towards the pedestrian overpass with a wooden face, Lu Yao suddenly had an idea and broke out in a cold sweat.
There was no other protection at hand, and it was night, but fortunately the bubble guns in the store were all specially made toys, and some of the special types could be used in conjunction with magic.
Lu Yao had just used a bubble gun to spread a layer of magic bubble net over the Childhood Tuition Center, which was invisible to the naked eye unless something hit it.
"It's called Erxin." Lu Yao put the bubble gun back on the shelf, "Come in and sit down, I'll go make some tea."
Xiao Ze stood up holding Erxin and followed Lu Yao: "What were you doing just now?"
Lu Yao led Xiao Ze to one of the glass tea rooms and sat down. He made tea and brought a nine-square snack plate filled with various candies. Then he sat down opposite Xiao Ze: "I was afraid that someone would accidentally fall from the overpass at night, so I took some protective measures."
Xiao Ze lowered his eyes: "...a unnecessary effort." Lu
Yao pushed the teacup over, "This is this year's new tea, it's especially fragrant. By the way, we met this morning, I wonder if you still remember me? My name is Lu Yao."
Xiao Ze picked up the teacup and sniffed it, a little surprised.
This tea is really fragrant, with a refreshing and light fragrance, completely different from the tea bags you usually buy in the supermarket.
He lowered his head and took a sip. The hot tea, with its fresh fragrance and a little aftertaste, passed through his tongue and throat, gurgling into his stomach. He relaxed unconsciously, "Xiao Ze. I was just rushing to work this morning and just picked up the flyer."
Er Xin jumped off Xiao Ze and lay down at Lu Yao's feet, occasionally wagging his tail.
Lu Yao took a chicken strip from under the table and gave it to Xiao Ze, and then gently pushed the snack box in front of Xiao Ze: "This is the candy in the store, Mr. Xiao, try it."
In the mahogany nine-grid snack plate, there are long strips of soft candy covered with sugar, fruit-flavored QQ candy, white rabbit milk candy, plum candy, bear-shaped lollipops, cookies, assorted jelly, and two traditional pastries, pea yellow and osmanthus cake.
Xiao Ze didn't want to eat it, but these candies were made very cute. The soft candy was rainbow-colored, the QQ candy was in the shape of mini fruits, and the white rabbit milk candy was wrapped in a white-bottomed blue-patterned candy paper... The faint sweet and sour taste in the air mixed with the fresh tea fragrance was indeed somewhat appetizing.
The owner's eyes were gentle, and he seemed to be encouraging him to try it.
Xiao Ze reached out and took a crescent-shaped QQ candy, but when he got closer, he found that it was a slice of orange. It tasted soft and chewy, and very chewy.
It was orange-flavored gummy candy.
Xiao Ze had long disliked this kind of stuff used to appease children, but he couldn't help but reach out and take a grape gummy candy.
Seeing that Xiao Ze didn't seem to want to talk, Lu Yao took a comic book from the bookshelf, sat next to him and started reading, and casually threw a chicken strip to Er Xin.
The three-flowered pig bravely pounced on the chicken strip, held the meat strip tightly in its arms with two paws, and ate it with relish.
Xiao Ze raised his eyes to observe Lu Yao, and from time to time reached out to take the candy in the nine-square grid to eat.
The girl had fair skin, black hair, and a beautiful face. She wore a golden lotus earring on her left ear, and exuded a calm and peaceful aura.
In his 22 years of life, Xiao Ze had never seen a woman like this.
Or rather, he had never seen a person like this.
"Aren't you from Sanhua City?" Xiao Ze couldn't help but ask what was in his mind.
Lu Yao put the comic book on his lap and nodded: "Can you tell?"
Xiao Ze shook his head, then nodded again: "Locals won't buy the shops here. Almost every week, several lives are lost at this intersection." Lu
Yao frowned: "No one cares?"
Xiao Ze's lips curved a little and smiled woodenly: "What cares? At first, some people protested, but then it happened too much and they became numb."
Xiao Ze leaned back in his chair, his face sullen: "You shouldn't stop me, you can't."
Lu Yao put the book on the table, stood up and walked around the shelf, and took a bottle of bubble water from the second layer.
The cylindrical green transparent glass bottle has a standing green dragon on the lid, and its appearance can be described as "exaggerated".
Lu Yao handed the Little Green Dragon Bubble Water to Xiao Ze: "You are the first customer of our shop, so I will give you a bottle of bubble water. When you go to bed at night, take it out and blow it. I guarantee you will have a good sleep."
Xiao Ze couldn't help laughing, "I've seen many good-for-nothings like you, but this is the first one who is so insincere. What's the use of bubble water? I'm not a primary school student."
Lu Yao said casually, "You guys played bubble water in primary school."
The shopkeeper was very familiar with this kind of trickery.
Xiao Ze was in a very bad state. At this time, it was probably nonsense to talk about big principles, such as cherishing life and cherishing life.
But he opened the conversation with a bottle of bubble water. Xiao Ze casually talked about the memory of playing bubble machines with his classmates in primary school, and said a lot unconsciously.
Lu Yao sorted out some useful information from Xiao Ze's words.
The school system in this world is four years of primary school, three years of middle school, and three years of college, a total of ten years.
Before the age of six, children are uniformly cared for by community nannies because both parents have to work.
Most people graduate from normal college at the age of sixteen, and start working right after graduation.
Generally, when graduating, the school will recommend suitable jobs based on the students' academic ability and specialties.
But there are also some people who are not outstanding in any aspect, so they are forced to fill in randomly.
If a unit is short of people, people without special skills will be arranged to work there.
Xiao Ze is one of the fill-in people, and he worked in real estate sales after graduation.
After working for many years, he is still not used to it, but he dare not resign easily.
Because people without special skills are very likely to find a new job after resigning.
This situation originated from about sixty years ago, when a certain event took the world into a stage of rapid development, and both science and technology and economy have made leaps and bounds.
In contrast, the mortality rate of mankind began to rise sharply.
After investigation, 70% of them were not accidents, but autonomous choices.
Experts have done a lot of related research, but still haven't found a clear reason.
Xiao Ze stopped talking about the latter part, lowered his head, and a blush spread from the bottom of his neck to the back of his ears.
He was so carried away that he talked to a stranger about his childhood, and his saliva dried up. He
is obviously not a talkative person.
Lu Yao checked the time and it was really late.
Most of the candies in the snack box were gone. It seemed that these foods from the snack bar, the furry shop and Yuguizhai were still very much to Xiao Ze's taste.
Although he said that he was no longer a child.
Lu Yao stood up, packed a box of various candies, and handed it to the embarrassed Xiao Ze: "Mr. Xiao, when you are tired, take in a proper amount of sugar, and you will feel much more relaxed. When you go to bed at night, remember to play with the Little Green Dragon Bubble Water for a while. You are welcome to come and play again next time when you are free."
Xiao Ze was embarrassed and asked how much it cost. He planned to buy the candies and bubble water, but he couldn't get the owner to give him a reason.
In the end, he still went out with the candy box and bubble water, and looked up at the sky before leaving.
Lu Yao found that the street lights outside were all off, and the whole neighborhood was dark. Only the sign of the Childhood Tutorial Center was on. He took out a magic stone from his portable warehouse to make a perpetual lamp, and was about to hand it to Xiao Ze. When he looked up, he saw Xiao Ze's fingers glowing.
Lu Yao's eyes widened: "Your hand..."
Xiao Ze waved his glowing fingers, "It's a useless ability in normal times, it can barely be used as a light. I'm leaving first."
Xiao Ze walked out a few steps, then turned and walked towards the company.
He was going to find his phone.
Lu Yao was stunned for a while before coming back to his senses: "That... could it be... a superpower?"
System: [This person's ability is so funny, a small flashlight on his finger. How can there be such a useless superpower? Hahahaha.]
Lu Yao fell into deep thought, so the opportunity that shocked the world sixty years ago was that humans awakened superpowers?
Xiao Ze found his phone and returned to the apartment. It was already late at night.
He took a shower and came out, sitting on the bed playing with the little green dragon on the bubble water bottle. Thinking back to the bizarre experience of the day, he just felt it was unreal.
The doorbell suddenly rang, Xiao Ze got up to answer the door, and saw Xu Xiaoxiao through the video camera.
He did not open the door, but asked: "What's the matter?"
Xu Xiaoxiao was outside the door wearing a nightgown, leaning against the door, "Xiao Ze, I want to sleep with you."
Xiao Ze: "... I'm not in the mood today."
Xu Xiaoxiao was a little surprised. This was the first time Xiao Ze refused her, "Do you have something to do? Open the door!"
Xiao Ze knew Xu Xiaoxiao very well. If he let her in, she would not be able to sleep tonight.
But if he kept standing there, she might have to stand outside all night.
Xu Xiaoxiao was very stubborn. He had experienced this deeply when they first met.
If you don't follow her wishes, the scene will always be very ugly.
Xiao Ze turned around and saw the half-opened candy box. He turned around and picked up the candy box and stuffed it through the crack of the door: "This is for you, take it back and eat it. I'm really tired today."
Xu Xiaoxiao immediately pushed the door hard to prevent Xiao Ze from closing it, "Don't try to get rid of me casually."
Xiao Ze finally let Xu Xiaoxiao in.
Xu Xiaoxiao tore open the candy box, took a bite and couldn't stop: "Where did you buy this candy?"
Xiao Ze sat on the bed, not wanting to talk, touched the bubble water he had just put down, remembered Lu Yao's words, unscrewed the lid, and blew it hard.
Bubbles with a faint fragrance flew around the room. Xu Xiaoxiao chewed candy in her mouth and laughed: "Did you go to elementary school today? Childish."
The bubbles burst, and the soothing potion filled the room.
Xiao Ze suddenly felt his eyelids heavy, and slowly fell on the bed, closed his eyes, rolled up the quilt, and fell into a deep sleep the next second.
Xu Xiaoxiao, who was sitting on the sofa, let go of the candy box, leaned against the pillow, and fell asleep in a daze.
That night, Xiao Ze and Xu Xiaoxiao both had dreams about their childhood, and when they woke up, they felt very relaxed.
Xu Xiaoxiao sat on the sofa and rubbed her eyes, "How did I fall asleep here?"
Xiao Ze picked up the bubble water that fell on the ground, his face solemn, "Don't go to work today, go to the hospital for a full body check-up."
