Chapter 96: Cheating!
"vomit……"
Chen Xingyun made a face as if he wanted to vomit and couldn't stand the other person. "What are you thinking?! I love my girlfriend too. I even managed to hold her hand and we could get married right there. Not only do I have love, I also believe in light! How come I don't have the strength to smash a giant mutant with one punch!"
"Ahaha, that's true." Amidst an awkward laugh, Zhong Mengfan once again used his supernatural powers to extract water from the air to wash away the liquid from the mutant creatures that had just splashed on his hair and combat uniform.
Then he asked Chen Xingyun, "Should I help you wash off the dirt?"
"No need for that. It's already seeped into the combat uniform and can't be washed away with water. I don't know if laundry detergent can remove this liquid. Otherwise, I'd better be extravagant for once and use the points to take it to the headquarters for cleaning and disinfection, and then maintain it." Chen Xingyun muttered.
"It's so annoying! I'm wearing the couple T-shirts my girlfriend gave me under my combat uniform. I don't know if those things can be washed clean." He said this on purpose. He wanted to "kill" the single guy Zhong Mengfan in front of him.
But as he spoke, he watched Zhong Mengfan washing his combat uniform with water, and his eyes became more and more strange.
"Your combat uniform..."
"What's wrong"
"It seems to be waterproof." Chen Xingyun couldn't help but move closer and reached out to touch Zhong Mengfan's combat uniform.
"Combat uniforms are waterproof. Uh, strange, isn't yours waterproof?" At close range, Zhong Mengfan also discovered that there was a clear difference between the combat uniforms of the two people after they came into contact with water.
After hearing Zhong Mengfan's words, Chen Xingyun felt his fists harden.
Hold on! He can't beat this guy...
He took a deep breath, slowly calming himself, but still couldn't help but let out a fake laugh. "Heh, we C-class heroes are so humble and weak, how can we get waterproof combat uniforms?"
Zhong Mengfan:
Zhong Mengfan said hesitantly, "But when I received the combat uniform, it was waterproof. I always thought everyone had the same function."
Hearing this, Chen Xingyun shook his head heavily, "No, we are different."
Zhong Mengfan only uttered a single sound "...ah"
Finally breaking free, Chen Xingyun shouted, "You lack common sense! Do you know how many hero points it takes just to add a waterproof coating to a rubber suit? Because espers usually have good physiques, waterproof combat uniforms, while common for A-rank heroes, are a dispensable item for poor, low-ranking pro heroes."
At this time, the battle was over, the sky gradually darkened after sunset, and the two men's combat uniforms once again showed two different states.
Zhong Mengfan's combat uniform seemed to change again, its color gradually blending in with the Zhou Dynasty night. From a distance, Zhong Mengfan's presence would be hard to spot with the naked eye. Meanwhile, Chen Xingyun, clad in a uniform soaked in mutant blood and stained with bits of minced meat, looked nothing but a mess.
Chen Xingyun said frantically, "What's wrong with this combat uniform of yours? It's not made of the same material a C-rank hero can wear. It's waterproof, forget about that; it just has an extra layer of waterproof coating. But yours can even hide at night!"
The manufacturing process is completely different from the very beginning! I'm wearing a combat uniform that can be easily thrown into the washing machine when it gets dirty. And yours, just the maintenance costs must cost a lot of hero points! Don't tell me you don't know!"
Zhong Mengfan rubbed his cheek, recalling the scene when he got the first draft of the combat uniform. "When I received the design drawings of the combat uniform, Xia Ye was also by my side. He helped me look at the design draft and said that he wanted to change some of the designs of the combat uniform, but Xia Ye did not tell me specifically what changes he made. After that, the daily maintenance and care of the combat uniform were also sent to the headquarters together with Xia Ye's combat uniform..." Now Zhong Mengfan has vaguely guessed the answer.
Chen Xingyun couldn't help but spit, "Tsk, how hateful!"
Zhong Mengfan moved his body slightly to increase the distance between himself and Chen Xingyun, then said, "Well, I thought everyone's masters were all the same." Although he said this, the comparison made Zhong Mengfan's mouth corners unconsciously rise slightly.
"At least my master couldn't do that, because he's just a hero who was recently promoted to A-rank. He has few hero points like me, and his poverty is heartbreaking. It hurts and distresses me."
Speaking of hero points, Chen Xingyun's tone became even more negative. He glared at Zhong Mengfan and said, "No wonder you have so many hero points. It turns out it's because you don't have to spend any of your own. That's right, your master has been an A-class hero for a long time and is also a special-level psychic."
Zhong Mengfan could no longer bear these sour words. "Hey, hey, is this something friends should say?"
Chen Xingyun shook his head. "No, but jealousy has changed me beyond recognition. I can no longer maintain the demeanor of a superhero in front of you." He clenched his fist and then put it down again.
He pointed at Zhong Mengfan's combat uniform and said, "This is proof that he's doting on you. At least I've never seen any other hero go to this extent for their disciple. Such precious hero points, can they be spent so casually? So the clown is actually me, oh my god!"
Being criticized, Zhong Mengfan was not angry. He showed a silly smile and even asked again as if to confirm, "Really! Is it really a pet?"
"Yeah, yes, yes. Don't smile so silly, it's so ugly." Chen Xingyun said with disgust.
Following Chen Xingyun's words, Zhong Mengfan began to enter another round of imagination and self-strategy. It was as if he was talking to Chen Xingyun, but also as if he was talking to himself, "This is not just pampering... It's also love, right?"
Chen Xingyun shook his body and said exaggeratedly, "I got goosebumps because of what you said."
But he hesitated for a moment and said, "In fact, it may also be the care and concern that the rich master has for his disciples."
Although the configuration of Zhong Mengfan's combat uniform was ridiculously exaggerated, after calming down, he was not so sure. The person Zhong Mengfan liked was the Night Demon, who was infinitely close to a legendary hero. From a purely rational perspective, Chen Xingyun still applied the cat-and-dog theory. They were different species, so how could they fall in love unless something irreversible happened? He looked at Zhong Mengfan again and couldn't help but let a strange expression cross his face.
Zhong Mengfan felt Chen Xingyun's gaze and said, "Why are you looking at me with such disgust? As a friend, how can you say such discouraging words? You should cheer me up and give me more courage to pursue love."
"Because I am a true friend, I can't help but think more. If you were rejected, everything would be completely different from what it is now." Chen Xingyun said this earnestly, but unfortunately, he knew Zhong Mengfan would not listen now.
He didn't expect Zhong Mengfan to answer "I know."
His tone was remarkably firm. "I know love doesn't always pay off. But if you can't even express your feelings to someone, then you don't deserve to be in love. At least, I'll take the first step."
