Chapter 121 Huo Ting, who can’t drink
However, just as this unprecedented wave of reader feedback was gradually fermenting, the editor Shax couldn’t contact his own author, Mr. Fish Noodle Soup.
Because Yu Mian was suddenly a little busy.
Just under the driver’s weird gaze, Yu Mian had already felt embarrassed to drag someone out of the car and bring him back to the second floor of the study.
Help.
Is he drunk?
Just drinking a glass of beer, can he get drunk?
"Master Yu Mian, what happened?"
Qiao Ni, who saw Yu Mian dragging someone back, looked at him in surprise, and Yu Mian hurriedly waved his hands to indicate that he was fine.
God, if Qiao Ni knew that she took Huo Ting out for a drink, and then her grandfather knew about it, it would be too bad, it would be like she had brought up a bad grandson.
It seems that this is the disadvantage of living in an old house, it is too easy for the elders to find out something unusual.
So Qiao Ni looked at him and went upstairs. She was a little surprised at first, but she laughed in the end.
Is he tired after playing outside?
The relationship seems to be better.
Qiao Ni actually knew that the eldest master had been in a bad mood recently because of the fact that Yu Mian wanted to move after looking at a house.
But the eldest master's personality is that he is never willing to take the initiative to say it, and I don’t know if it is good or bad.
Yu Mian felt like he was dragging a large Alaskan that was on strike and refused to walk. He finally put the person on the sofa with great difficulty.
"Why is it so serious?"
Yu Mian shook his sore arms and breathed a sigh of relief. He subconsciously looked at Huo Ting, who was even more silent than usual.
Fortunately, Huo Ting was a good drinker and didn't go crazy. He was just unusually quiet.
If you are not familiar with him, it would be difficult to find that there is something wrong with this guy.
It seems that he can understand what he said, but how to say it...
It seems that he needs to be coaxed.
I pray that my grandfather will not see him when he comes back tonight.
Yu Mian felt more and more guilty as he thought about it, and poured some water from the kettle beside him.
"Would you like some water? Isn't your throat thirsty?"
Yu Mian, who was standing in front of the sofa, almost bent over to see what Huo Ting was doing. He couldn't help but reach out and touch Huo Ting's cheek, but it was not hot or red.
He doesn't look drunk at all, and people would believe him if he said he just finished a meeting.
The color of his eyes became very dark, like the depths of the starry sky.
He seems quite obedient.
Seeing Huo Ting look at him and then lower his eyes to drink water, Yu Mian felt embarrassed by his own thoughts when his Adam's apple rolled.
It seems that he should not persuade others to drink next time.
Although Huo Ting's behavior is indeed quite novel.
Yu Mian took the glass of water that he drank carefully, and planned to find a wet towel to wipe Huo Ting's face to sober him up.
After glancing at the clock and estimating the time when his grandfather would come back from fishing, Yu Mian began to get nervous.
"Forget it, I'll do it."
Although Huo Ting was silent and slow, Yu Mian felt that he was almost dying of anxiety, so he directly grabbed the towel back and stretched out his hands to wipe Huo Ting.
His hands were also cold after washing the towel.
Or maybe the body temperature of mermaids has never been very high. Occasionally when Huo Ting held him, he could obviously feel the temperature difference. After
wiping with the wet towel, Yu Mian felt that Huo Ting seemed to have recovered a little?
I don't know if it's a psychological effect.
So when can this drunken man wake up?
Yu Mian held his chin and stared at Huo Ting in front of him, and suddenly looked at the box in the study next to him. When he opened it, he saw his own scale.
Although I don't know why, I just instinctively feel that the fallen scales can't be given to others casually.
The scales that fell off before were still neatly buried in the white fine sand of the fish tank. Unexpectedly, there was still a fish that slipped through the net and was hidden by Huo Ting.
Yu Mian held this thin crystal-like scale and looked at it curiously for a long time.
The edges felt rounded, and the color was still the tender light color before the scales were officially cut.
"You are not a fish, what do you want scales for? Why don't you give them back to me?"
"If you don't say anything, I will take it as your agreement?"
Yu Mian waved the scale at Huo Ting, who was closing his eyes to sober up. He felt that he was taking advantage of someone's misfortune, but he didn't feel guilty at all.
Who asked Huo Ting to hide his scales secretly?
However, just when Yu Mian was about to run away with the scales and continue to bury them in the fine sand of the fish tank, a force behind him grabbed Yu Mian and held him in his arms with the scales.
Yu Mian:!!!
Yu Mian, who was holding the scales, was so scared that he felt like he was caught doing something bad. He didn't even dare to move. The next second, he turned his head to look at Huo Ting behind him, and found that the distance was incredibly close.
It was closer than any previous time he channeled his spiritual power.
It seemed that he could even feel his breath, and his ears were itchy, so Yu Mian even held his breath.
"Tuk-tuk--"
"Master, are you there? Jonnie said you're home?"
Secretary Hals knocked on the door with the materials outside, and found that there was no response from the study. Instead, his highly sensitive facial features vaguely heard some strange noises?
Like something was knocked over.
As for Yu Mian, who stood up in shock, he looked at the overturned box in his hand, and found that in addition to the scales and small notes on the top layer, there was actually a baby blue ribbon at the bottom.
"Isn't this what appeared when I was doing the mission? Why didn't it disappear?"
Yu Mian held the ribbon and tidied it up frantically, almost questioning the system.
[Uh, ah, this is because once something is "selected", it can no longer be made to disappear casually, otherwise it will cause chaos in the world's logic.]
[The backstage staff never expected that he didn't throw the ribbon away. If he had thrown it into the trash can, I could have helped you get rid of it directly.]
The small system explained frantically while helping Yu Mian pick up the note, although it seemed that Huo Ting had thrown all the blame on him.
At that time, the ribbon was used to blindfold the eyes, but it was actually folded and placed in the box.
If the pearl given by the host had not been completely shattered in the end, would it have been placed in the box?
"Does Huo Ting have tidying up obsessive-compulsive disorder?"
Yu Mian felt that his face was inexplicably hot.
Moreover, Huo Ting carefully sorted out the box and kept it by his side, as if all the dark history was known to him.
[This is not considered dark history, at most it is the preservation of the fish farming diary document? ←.←】
After the small system helped to put the last piece of paper into the box and closed the lid, Yu Mian ran to open the door for Secretary Hals.
"Hey, are you here too?"
Secretary Hals was surprised to see Yu Mian opening the door, but then he smiled and said, "That's just right.
" "You're here too? Aren't you here to look for Huo Ting's work?"
Yu Mian adjusted his breathing and took a copy from Secretary Hals the next second.
"That's really not the case."
Secretary Hals smiled and motioned Yu Mian to look at the document. Yu Mian opened it and found that it was from the house in Xingkong Lake.
"We sent someone to check it thoroughly inside and out. We found some minor problems and many details that need to be considered. The fence also needs to be reinforced and made taller and denser. Otherwise, if someone peeks through the fence, they can see the people inside."
"You are so well-known now, so safety must be the first consideration. Especially in a single-family villa in the Starry Sky Lake, although it is quiet and livable, it is easy for something to go wrong without anyone noticing."
The main reason is that after that accidental appearance, I don't know how many fans are curious and interested in Yu Mian as an author.
It's just that Yu Mian usually stays in the old house, so there is no problem with safety and privacy.
Once he moves out, it will be different.
What if some dangerous person breaks into the villa?
The security system must be upgraded as well.
"It seems true."
Yu Mian flipped through the materials and found out that since returning from the house-viewing trip, Huo Ting had actually considered so much behind his back?
There were many things that he hadn't had time to think about.
But at this moment when Yu Mian was in a subtle and confused mood, Secretary Hals quickly discovered that Huo Ting seemed to be in a state of some abnormality, and looked at the wet towel and water cup that Yu Mian had placed on the table.
"What's this, young master?"
"Uh, well, he's a little tired today, mainly because Uncle Harrison and his team invented a new alcoholic drink, beer, which makes it easy to get drunk! "
Yu Mian hurriedly explained, although the more he explained, the more guilty he felt.
Cangtian, if it happens again, he will never let Huo Ting touch alcohol.
This is too much of a contrast. He actually fell down after one glass, although it was not really a fall.
"And Huo Ting really can't be allowed to touch alcohol in the future, otherwise it will be very dangerous for him to meet bad people like this. He didn't even have any reaction."
Regarding the arrival of Secretary Hals, Yu Mian felt that it was also necessary to let Secretary Hals be vigilant and be careful not to let Huo Ting touch it in the future.
Unexpectedly, Secretary Hals showed a subtle expression.
"You don't have to worry about this. To be honest, a person with high mental power in this state will only be a very dangerous unstable factor. "
Generally speaking, it is the people around you who are worried and scared.
" "But..."
Secretary Hals added before Yu Mian finished his sentence.
"But you are a person that Master Huo Ting trusts very much, so he can get close to you. And your mental power is also very special. Every time we come into contact with you, we actually feel very refreshed. "
I guess the young master feels the same way.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for Young Master Yu Mian, who was hiding in the fish tank in the study at that time, to get close to help change the medicine
. This was even the key reason why no one could guess at the time that there was a mysterious guest hiding in the study to help change the medicine.
Who would dare to approach a being with extremely strong mental power in this state?
"..."
Yu Mian was surprised when he heard this and thought of Huo Ting's behavior just now. How could he not get close to him...
Although he really wanted to ask Secretary Hals why this happened, he instinctively felt that he couldn't speak at all.
"Well, anyway, I'll come back tomorrow. After all, my mental power is still offensive, and generally I can't get close to him. "
But maybe you can also take a look at these smart security systems first. Which one would you be more satisfied with? And I think since the two houses are very close, why not consider getting an integrated security system? This will not only be faster but also more effective."
Secretary Hals gave Yu Mian some new suggestions before leaving.
"The most important thing is that when the seventh volume of your Soldier King is published, you really have to carefully consider privacy and security protection."
Yu Mian:?
Yu Mian looked at Secretary Hals's sudden subtle expression and did not react for a while.
"Don't you know this yet? But your writing in this volume is indeed wonderful and powerful, and is Lin Mu really dead? Then who should be the protagonist of the next two volumes? "
Even though Hals knew that he was more or less taking advantage of the geographical advantage to ask for spoilers in person, he still couldn't help but, under the pressure of curiosity, he pushed the study door and asked aloud.
After everyone watched it dozens of times, they finally had to believe that Lin Mu and the Seventh Army were really framed by that damn Hilltan.
The most hateful thing was that the Seventh Army had the last chance to retreat, but Commander Boll couldn't go against the nature of the soldiers and couldn't give up the residents of Satellite City, so he led everyone to fight to the death until the last moment.
It bought the most precious golden retreat time for tens of thousands of civilians.
But the cause of death of the Seventh Army written in the official battle report was the death of a traitor!
This is simply too infuriating, and my heart is pounding when I read it.
"Huh? How could Lin Mu be dead? Who said the protagonist should be changed? Isn't this just faking his death? The next volume will definitely be from the perspective of Lin Mu after he wakes up."
Yu Mian was holding the materials in his hand, and he hadn't adjusted his mood yet. Looking at Secretary Hals who was suddenly emotional, he subconsciously explained.
"Faked death - there is actually such a development...?"
However, Secretary Hals, who has always been reliable, was shocked and stunned by Yu Mian's words. For a moment, he forgot to move while holding the door of the study.
"Yeah, isn't it rare to fake death?"
Yu Mian asked absentmindedly.
Well, it seems to be quite rare in novels of the Star Age. Wait
, readers really thought that Lin Mu was dead and the protagonist was going to be changed after reading the seventh volume?
Yu Mian suddenly sensed something fishy and suspicious from the reaction of Secretary Hals, an extremely honest reader.
Given the honesty of the interstellar readers, they wouldn't really take it seriously, would they?
Secretary Hals, who was walking out the door, was stunned as he recalled the plot that Yu Mian had just lightly mentioned. It was as if his brain was dancing with excitement and novelty.
It turned out that it could develop in this way?
Escape to death!
Thinking of this, he suddenly became more crazy and excited. What should I do?
That damn villain Hiltan, he probably never dreamed that Lin Mu was not dead, right?
And if Lin Mu was not dead, in what identity would he reappear and take revenge?
This time, Hiltan will definitely be avenged by Lin Mu, right?
Secretary Hals even always felt that the world in the book seemed to be real, and Lin Mu, Colonel Boll, and Officer Tucker had really fought on that bloody front...
And because the world described by the teacher Yiwan Fish Soup Noodles was so vivid, everyone felt their hearts aching after reading the seventh volume just thinking about the final battle report.
The strange thing was that this feeling was so intense that even the mental power seemed to feel a storm, and the excitement was so active that it could not be calmed down.
Of course, for readers like Secretary Hals who often met Yu Mian offline, the most strange thing every time they read the book was that it was difficult to connect the evil of Yiwan Fish Soup Noodles with Yu Mian himself.
There is always a sense of deviation, with an angel appearance and a devil heart.
How can this brain think of such a plot of "escape from death" that tortures the readers' hearts?
Hals felt that he might not be able to sleep all night tonight, and it seemed that it would be better not to ask for spoilers in private. It's just
what he deserves.
And Yu Mian in the study suddenly realized a problem, that is, he just forgot to ask Hals to help send Huo Ting back to the bedroom!
Where can he move it?
But he couldn't let Huo Ting really sleep on the sofa all night?
It seemed too conscienceless.
Yu Mian took the thick material in his hand, looked at Huo Ting again, and felt awkward and indescribable.
If he hadn't happened to meet Secretary Hals today, would he not know about it?
He reluctantly forgave this guy for what he had just done.
In fact, if I move out, I might be the only one left in the house again. Just like in my previous life, occasionally the cleaning lady will come in to clean the house.
But for someone who used to be alone at home, once I experienced the hustle and bustle, living alone again seemed to be really different.
And in this vast and mysterious interstellar world.
In fact, if it weren't for Conch Shell coming to the study and getting to know Huo Yan and the others, which made me feel a little bit that this world was lovely and interesting, I would be alone in this universe. But if
I lived at home all the time, Yu Mian felt that it seemed too much of a disturbance, even if my grandfather and the others didn't mind.
Alas.
Yu Mian held up his chin and looked at Huo Ting in distress. He subconsciously reached out and played with Huo Ting's fingers that were quietly placed in front of him. Huo Ting's hands were also very beautiful, in fact, they looked like works of art.
He just recalled the strength of being hugged, and instantly stood up again as if he had been electrocuted.
Ahhh...
Why does it feel more complicated than writing a novel?
[鱼鱼抱头賾结.jpg]
Yu Mian couldn't figure it out, but he felt that he seemed to have really encountered a problem that he had never experienced before.
And in the Universal Building, everyone in the Universal Editorial Department almost didn't sleep all night tonight.
And when the property just opened in the morning, a large number of express deliveries had been delivered to the bottom of the building, which was daunting to look at from a distance.
Although Shax thinks that he is no longer the novice editor Shax, he has been in charge of so many works behind Mr. Yutangmian, and he has seen all kinds of blood and gore.
After all, traffic is king. Anyway, no matter whether Mr. Yutangmian's works are slow or fast, whether the subject matter is niche or novel, they can attract the attention of so many fans or haters. From the perspective of traffic, he has already won.
But!
This time, the momentum after the publication of the seventh volume of "Star Soldier King" still successfully made the entire editorial department tremble.
Because it is hard for you to imagine that the heat of the whole night has not dropped at all, but has been rising steadily.
Even at 3 or 4 in the morning when the reader traffic should be the lowest, the speed of the comment section page flipping is as fast as a crazy flashing machine, and various small essays of hundreds or thousands of words are refreshing the screen at the speed of seconds.
Not to mention the posts with screenshots of new physical books appearing in various forums, and the titles are more terrifying than each other.
What is [Universe, I bought more than 20 confirmed endings, and all of them have Lin Muzhen dead. God, this is really not a printing error? I don't believe it——]
or something like [I bought five or six copies in one go, and my whole family read them at the first sight. But after reading, my dad ran downstairs to run quietly all night and hasn't come back yet. Now I'm worried about what to do]
or even [I laughed my ass off. When I heard a heart-wrenching voice of "Hiltan, you deserve to die" coming from upstairs at almost the same time, I knew that my neighbor was also a fan of Bing Wang. It turns out that I'm not the only one hahahaha (I've gone crazy)
There are all kinds of fan posts about Bing Wang that have been blown up.
Among all the fan groups of Yutangmian, Bing Wang fans were once recognized as the most mature and stable. After the release of the seventh volume of the physical book "Reborn Interstellar Soldier King", this group seemed to have really been blown up.
So much so that everyone was shocked to find that Bing Wang fans actually cover such a wide range?
Almost all ages are covered.
[My brother went to school crying today, who would believe it? He swore that he would enroll in the military academy in this lifetime, and then avenge Lin Mu. This mindset is completely irreversible (covering face)
A photo of a little dumpling crying while carrying a schoolbag to school was also pushed to the top of the hot posts. A lot of parents left messages below saying that the book "Fish Soup Noodle Teacher Soldier King" has a lot of little soldiers fans.
These little soldiers fans who followed Lin Mu's journey to become the Soldier King were just short of planting a seed of passionate ideals to defend the Federation from a young age.
It can be said that they are quite legitimate.
Because of this, when these little soldiers fans read that the tough hero Lin Mu in everyone's mind was framed by the villain, their worldview almost collapsed overnight, and many of them cried loudly that night.
Just as "The Necklace of the North Star" is dreamy, beautiful and healing, "Reborn: Star Soldier King" is tear-jerking and heart-wrenching, and for the first time, these little soldier fans have tasted the taste of being stabbed.
The editor Shax and a group of staff were sweating profusely, literally sweating profusely.
And as expected, the vague messages on the Star Network alone are enough, and the express deliveries to the publisher really flooded the entire door.
"I think that this time the reader's express delivery cannot be sent to Mr. Fish Soup Noodle easily. We have to open it carefully and check it."
Shax swallowed his saliva, and the deputy editor beside him wiped his sweat.
This will obviously be a huge project.
How come Mr. Fish Soup Noodle's seventh volume contains such an unprecedented big knife? Although it must be admitted that it is indeed very exciting.
In addition to the Universal Editorial Department, the □□ staff responsible for commissioning manuscripts on behalf of the Ministry of Military Affairs looked at the personal secretary of the Chairman of the Military Commission, Michaelsel, with hesitation, and came directly to take away a copy of the latest manuscript.
When the Chairman of the Military Commission, Michaelsel, usually rests, he also likes to flip through this "Reborn Star Soldier King", which is no longer a secret in the military.
"But is this plot really suitable for the older Military Commissioner Michael?"
"Maybe Mr. Fish Noodles didn't expect that there would be so many hidden bosses among the readers of Soldier King?"
Especially when a big boss like the Commissioner gets stabbed, it's hard to imagine the consequences of being furious.
They looked at each other, but in the end, no one dared to run over to stop them.
