Chapter 52 Please stop pretending to be a surveillance camera
[Ah, he really went to read the note! ]
Not only Yu Mian in the fish tank was very nervous at this moment, the small system couldn't help but feel uneasy.
There was no idea what this extremely magical note would lead to.
And Huo Ting's first impression of the note was that the handwriting of this "mysterious existence" was unexpectedly beautiful.
It can even be said that he has a good handwriting...
so much so that Huo Ting only looked at the content the second time.
[I'm a good person, please, please stop pretending to be a surveillance camera! I just accidentally borrowed your study for a while, but I should be able to move out soon. It was just rent before. ]
At the moment when Huo Ting finished reading the content of the note, he found that the other party not only left a reply under his handwriting, but even drew a crying and apologetic expression at the end.
At this moment, even Huo Ting had to feel an unprecedented sense of suspicion about the reply written on the note as if it were a supernatural incident.
Because this extremely dangerous and supernatural thing made people completely lose their vigilance.
Perhaps it was because this "mysterious existence" seemed quite polite...
Not only did he use the honorific "please", he even quietly paid the "rent" in his own way.
And Huo Ting stroked the note in his palm, and always felt that the amount of information in it was unexpectedly large.
The other party seemed to have come here by accident.
I just don't know why he was forced to stay in the study, and even needed some time to leave?
In fact, the reason why Huo Ting decided to remove all the cameras inside the study was that he suddenly realized that this "mysterious existence" undoubtedly had a special ability to lurk in the study without being seen.
So after he instructed Secretary Hals to install the surveillance, all the strange phenomena disappeared.
The other party obviously knew about the cameras installed in the house.
Don't want to be discovered and know your existence?
"..."
But maybe this is also normal.
Huo Ting recalled the so-called "rent" during this period of time, and it is almost certain that this "mysterious existence" has extremely rare abilities.
As for the ability of mental healing, there are very few races in the history of the galaxy that have related skills.
If there is no means of self-protection and such an ability is exposed, it seems to be very dangerous.
What's more, this guy
doesn't seem to have an aggressive personality at all.
So when Huo Ting turned off the lights and left the study tonight, he hesitated for a moment and tried to write the second note again.
He gently put it back in the old position.
"Ahhh, he's finally gone!"
The moment Yu Mian saw the door of the study was closed, he stayed in the water for a long time before finally letting down his guard and running out of the fish tank.
He picked up the reply in his hand curiously at the first time.
[Injured? Or alone, so forced to stay in this study. - Huo]
"Hiss, this guy, although his guess is not completely right, it is really like this in a sense..."
Although he has become a mermaid, he is indeed alone.
And it is indeed because of his mental power that he cannot leave for the time being.
After all, Huo Ting was judged by the system as an important plot character, and the rewards attached to the system tasks are indeed very useful to him at the moment.
Although Yu Mian vaguely felt that when he had more completed works like "Agreement Marriage", he would probably be able to completely get rid of the limitation of insufficient mental power and would not have to worry about the problem of fish tail.
[Are you still going to reply to him? ]
The small system looked at Yu Mian who was staring at the note in a daze, and asked curiously.
"Ah? I don't have time to care about him now. The most important thing is to update as soon as possible!!"
But even if Yu Mian wanted to reply to Huo Ting, it would not be the first time to reply him now, and he must apologize crazily.
Next time, can Huo Ting discuss anything with me in advance, or make an appointment to use the study room so that each other's time does not overlap?
After all, Yu Mian suddenly found that the existence of the small note left by Huo Ting seemed to be very useful.
Not only did it break the information gap of the system background tasks, but it seemed that there was no need to be so worried.
Anyway, it was just a mess.
Let this guy know that there is a supernatural being in the study, so what?
However, as soon as Yu Mian opened Star Message, he saw the news exploded. 99+ messages gushed out in an instant.
The message from Shax Editor was fine, after all, as an editor, he would definitely contact him.
Moreover, Kain, who always had a self-respecting and aloof image on Star Message, actually sent him many messages. Even Brand, the first anchor who helped him promote his live broadcast, sent countless messages.
"I really have to update quickly..."
If "Eternal Night Rose" doesn't explode with tens of thousands of words, it will be impossible to explain and apologize. ORZ
So Yu Mian quickly replied to a few people with short messages and started typing frantically.
"Master Yutangmian has replied! I will double the update volume tonight as compensation, my god——"
In the Universal Editorial Department, Shax, who had been following the star message almost every day this week, was almost crying with joy when he saw the news.
God knows how he got through this week.
As the only one in the editorial department who has seen Yu Mian in person, Shax has the most in-depth and three-dimensional understanding of his author's sudden loss of contact.
To be honest, there are countless mysteries surrounding his author from the beginning to the end, and it can even be said that he is extremely mysterious.
I once thought that he was like Gu Bai in "Agreed Marriage", an inspirational master who worked hard to start a business in a remote and desolate galaxy.
As a result, when we met, I found out that Master Yutangmian seemed to live in the Central Star.
Hun's demeanor doesn't seem like that of a poor and destitute person, but more like someone who has never lacked money since childhood.
So much so that Shax once worried deeply about one thing, that is, Fish Soup Noodles's decision to write a novel is not just a whim, right?
After all, the housing prices in the core area of the Central Star are quite high. In a sense, it is not a matter of price, but a lack of demand.
If he lives nearby, his family background must be quite good, and it is very likely that he has a family background with a strong foundation in the Federation.
Maybe it is because he secretly writes novels without telling his elders at home, so even though he looks so good, he is unwilling to show up in public! ?
Although the royalties for "Agreement Marriage" and "Eternal Night Rose" were high after they became popular, if Fish Soup Noodles didn't care about the money, wouldn't he stop writing at any time because he felt too tired and had no interest?
However, Shax's worries, which seemed more and more reasonable, faded away with the speed at which Yu Mian wrote new books one after another.
After all, whether it was "Agreement Marriage" and "Eternal Night Rose", or "Star Soldier King" which was specially commissioned by the Federation, each one was wonderful and high-yield, making Shax unable to stop reading and savoring it endlessly.
As a result, Fish Soup Noodles disappeared again this time, which instantly reminded Shax of his original guess. He thought that it was because of the controversy about the male supporting actor Xiao that Fish Soup Noodles suddenly stopped writing!
Fortunately, Fish Soup Noodles is finally back.
This is a blessing!
"Oh my God, he's finally back!?"
After hearing the news, the deputy editor collapsed on the chair, and his spirit, which had been tense for a week, finally relaxed.
After all, Yu Mian disappeared suddenly, and Huanyu naturally became the focus of everyone's attention.
He was just short of being suspected of secretly bullying Fish Soup Noodles, which made the author directly choose to stop updating in protest.
Editor Lei became the target of the entire editorial department this week, and Lei almost pointed to the sky and swore that he clearly did not do anything behind the scenes this time!
For the first time, I felt a painful and wronged feeling that I didn't deliberately act as a bad person, but was suspected of doing something bad by everyone.
"So the fish noodle teacher is already writing the latest update?"
"Yes, after a brief chat with me, the fish noodle teacher went to code. He said that there will be a double update at 6 o'clock tonight, and he will make up for the missed updates for half a month."
Faced with the deputy editor's confirmation again, Shax also looked at the optical brain and read it again.
The entire Huanyu editorial department sighed with relief.
"That Miss Lilith probably didn't come here all the way."
In fact, when 6 o'clock came, Kane, who had been watching "Eternal Night Rose" with his optical computer all afternoon, also rushed to "Eternal Night Rose".
Although Kane had received Yu Mian's very apologetic reply several hours ago, saying that he had a small accident, which led to him only seeing the news online today, and he would resume updating tonight.
Because in the past few days, Kane has been thinking over and over again about what happened.
Xingxun carefully sent a [? ] at the beginning, and then a [Did you encounter any difficulties? ], and even in the end Kane thought that maybe Yu Mian paid back his sky-high penalty, so something happened in his life? ?
So Kane directly tried to transfer a huge amount of funds.
As a result, no one replied or received it! QAQ
Fortunately, it was finally updated tonight -
I don't know why, I never realized that I had become so addicted to following the updates... It
was not until this whole week of not seeing each other that Kane was so clearly convinced for the first time that no matter whether it was "Agreement Marriage" or "Eternal Night Rose", as long as it was a book written by Yu Mian, he actually wanted to read it!
If I missed a day, I would feel an indescribable sense of emptiness and loneliness.
It was as if the small world in the book came to an abrupt end, and I could no longer find the entrance to find them, and I could no longer see the wonderful stories of Su Yan, Delevin or Xiao in the blood moon era.
It was also for this reason that when Kane and countless readers clicked on the familiar update prompt of "Eternal Night Rose" at the same time, they felt an indescribable excitement.
As long as you keep updating, everything will be fine -
don't stop updating again!
We will no longer argue about why Xiao became a vampire.
After all, since the last round of updates, Xiao, the male supporting character who has always been very popular among readers, was bitten by the prince of the Bart tribe, which really set off a huge wave in the entire group of followers. It
was not until this update that we finally saw the exciting sequel!
That is, although Xiao was bitten, he seemed to still maintain all the characteristics of a human being, and even served as the leader of the blood hunt in the territory as always.
Moreover, in the crisis of many alien beast raids, he showed unusually powerful abilities.
Only Su Yan noticed something strange.
【“Xiao, are you feeling well lately? Why do you look so pale?”
When Su Yan approached Xiao this time, Xiao dodged him
, which was even more unusual. Su Yan’s hand was left hanging in the air.
“Nothing’s wrong. I’m just a little tired lately.”
Xiao was obviously aware of his abnormality and immediately explained in the softest tone possible.
“Don’t get too tired.”
Su Yan looked at Xiao’s hurriedly leaving figure, but a certain doubt in his heart grew deeper and deeper.
"Well, the captain has been getting stronger and stronger recently, so you don't have to worry too much."
"Yes, the number of prey killed is twice as much as before. It may be that the battles have taken more energy, so he is unwilling to talk in the territory."
The team members under Xiao also explained.
Although because of the previous turmoil, everyone now feels guilty and uneasy facing Su Yan.
After all, they had misunderstood Su Yan, and they didn't even know why they were possessed by ghosts. Suddenly, they felt that the prophet they loved and admired the most would be the lurking traitor of the human race.
But Su Yan no longer cares about these things now.
In addition to continuing to complete some daily tasks in the territory, Su Yan has been searching for various ancient books or relics during this period.
After the last incident, Su Yan suddenly decided that he should take this opportunity to travel back to thoroughly understand the historical truth of the coexistence and confrontation between the Bart tribe and humans, but eventually they were destroyed.
However, after Su Yan noticed Xiao's abnormality, Su Yan did have some concerns about this best friend who believed in him from beginning to end.
"Meiqiu, can you tell what's wrong with Xiao?"
Su Yan even tentatively asked Delevin this time.
During this period of time, Su Yan gradually realized that Coal Ball was different.
But Su Yan always felt that Coal Ball might be some kind of ancient interstellar alien beast, so he had some kind of inheritance, so he could be so knowledgeable.
However, this time, Dreven just looked at Xiao not far away, and shook his head slightly after a long silence.
He could feel that something was wrong with Xiao, but...
Dreven always felt that Xiao had become dangerous.
Just this kind of intuition made Dreven's face solemn.
Because in the previous life, no such accident happened.
This can only mean that with his forced reversal of time and space, everything finally changed like a butterfly flapping its wings.
Maybe I should ask Bazar.
As the supervisor of the palace, Bazar is an old man under the Blood Moon Era after all, and knows almost everything about the Blood Moon Era.
But during this period, Xiao, who seemed to be no different from a normal human, suddenly covered his neck with a look of hidden pain when he was alone in the room late at night.
[What are you hesitating about? You obviously like that human.]
[But you are obviously a poor bug, the other party has no feelings for you, right? [
It even looks like he is more interested in the pet beside him than you are...]
When the low and evil voice came out of Xiao's mouth, it was almost the first time that Xiao's cheerful and handsome face revealed an indescribable sense of contradiction.
"Shut up - if you get close to him again, I will never let you go!"
"You will never try to control me, I will never let you succeed..."
At the moment when Xiao opened his eyes in pain, he stabbed the mithril dagger in his arm almost like committing suicide.
[You scary lunatic! But I am you -]
At this moment, the voice in his mind wailed and disappeared into the mysterious night.
And Xiao's eyes, which were originally red, returned to the cold and silent black.
But only Xiao knew that his body had undergone some kind of irresistible change since he killed the vampire.
He gradually possessed a mysterious and powerful power that he could not control, and this mysterious power even made his physical quality far exceed the limit of being a human being.
Even after being injured, it would heal quickly.
Xiao looked at his arm, which was almost unrecognizable from the tragic wound a moment ago, and smiled bitterly.
He did have the powerful power he had longed for, but the price was that after being bitten by the vampire, another personality in his body was awakened.
Although Xiao tried countless times to deny that it was his other side, and even doubted whether it was a residual soul left in his mind by the vampire...
as the other party was able to resonate with almost all of his secret thoughts and infinitely magnify the negative emotions, Xiao had to face it for the first time.
It turns out that I also have so many evil thoughts.
If Su Yan knew, he would probably be very disappointed with me.
What is the difference between me now and the Bart tribe?
After such a change occurred in Xiao's body, all readers who read this were undoubtedly shocked.
I never expected that such a change would happen in Xiao's body.
He didn't completely turn into a vampire, but the blood of that vampire triggered another negative personality in his body! ?
[I really didn't expect that Xiao Xian became so powerful because of this? Why do I feel that the identity of the vampire prince who was killed must be very complicated...]
[Yes, the key is that Dreven didn't recognize what was happening to Xiao Xian at first sight, but Dreven is the purest descendant of the Bart clan. Theoretically, wouldn't all the Bart clan be exposed in front of him! ? ]
Dreven didn't see the foreshadowing of Xiao's transformation at first sight, and readers can say that they have made countless guesses.
At the same time, however, another group of readers who were less sensitive to the plot had a completely different impression after watching the series...
[Does anyone think Xiao is suddenly attractive? ? The reason why I didn't like Zhu Ma before was because I thought he was a little bit lackluster, but now he has a dual personality? I'm not sleepy anymore when you talk about this! ]
[After becoming more powerful, his personality has become a little crazy. Does this guy have so many thoughts about Su Yan in his heart? He usually acts so normal, maybe this is why this guy couldn't beat Dreven and had to leave sadly. 】
【Supporting everything will only make me healthy. Now I not only support Draven x Su Yan, Xiao x Su Yan, I even want to support Black Xiao x White Xiao... Is there such food to eat? ? I am so obsessed with eclecticism that I am even afraid of myself TAT】
Although everyone habitually discussed the plot of this chapter fiercely after reading it, it is obvious that in addition to the content of this update, there is another more critical issue, which is...
【Master, although today's update is very good, where did you say "I was busy and couldn't update" last week? Ahhh——! 】
In response to this, Yu Mian could only slide down and kneel down to apologize crazily. He could only say that things are unpredictable.
[Sorry, sorry everyone, it was an accident. TwT will not let this happen again. This time, the update will be doubled for half a month! ! ]
However, the reason why Yu Mian dared to say this was because he and Huo Ting had reached an agreement.
[Cangtian, how dare you make such a request...]
"Is there a problem? I raised it, and he agreed. What can you, a system, object to?"
When Yu Mian raised the reply note with the word "OK" written on it, he felt that he had won a great victory!
Because during this period of time, Yu Mian finally couldn't help but ask Huo Ting politely if he could leave the study room to him during the day in the future...
We could exchange the time, and he would definitely pay the rent!
Unexpectedly, Huo Ting, who got the note, directly replied with a "OK" on the paper.
Wouldn't the coding time be greatly stabilized?
Although the small system was in a mess, it didn't expect Yu Mian to dare to mention it, and Huo Ting actually agreed...
Is this guy really not afraid! ?
After updating in one breath and making up for the double update drop, Yu Mian realized that his tail had once again dehydrated due to the high-intensity work of updating outside the fish tank.
"Help... my tail is really losing scales. What's going on?"
At this moment, a scale even fell off in protest.
[But this scale is pretty. ]
The small system followed Yu Mian and looked at the pale golden scale held in his palm.
It was like a thin piece of glass crystal, and the light refracted when it was shaken was like a fragment of moonlight.
"It's over. I used to lose my hair when I updated, but now it's losing scales... Don't keep updating so much or my tail will become bald."
Yu Mian rubbed his hair with a painful expression. He couldn't imagine what it would look like if his tail fell off.
After all, losing hair on the head is as ugly as losing scales on the tail...
[Uh, uh, uh, then check if there is any way to maintain scales? And you can't be too chaotic in the future, can't you finish writing and updating earlier? ]
The small system couldn't help but nag and worry about its host's shocked look.
"Hey, don't say it, I was wrong..."
Yu Mian suddenly found that his system was becoming more and more unconscious.
But after checking on the Star Network, Yu Mian really found a way.
After all, in the interstellar era, many special races do have scales or nails. Everyone loves beauty, and naturally there are a dazzling variety of specific skin care products and skin care products.
"The brilliant moisturizing essence protects every special beast armor, shining like the stars..."
Although Yu Mian took a look, he inexplicably found the slogan a little funny.
[But there are still many people buying it, it seems to be a very famous product.]
As soon as he opened the consumer buyer show, it received rave reviews, and even made Yu Mian see many special races in the stars.
[It's really easy to use. Since applying it, I haven't lost scales. I feel moisturized and comfortable all over my body. The fragrance is also fresh and elegant without being greasy.]
This comment seems to be from a lady with crocodile blood. The scales really appeared on the arm she showed, which was quite cool and handsome like the interstellar sister.
[Indeed, men also feel good after using it. My daughter recommended it to me. After applying it, the scales didn’t fall off while working, and new ones even grew. It’s a conscientious product and worth recommending.]
The next one seems to be a tough guy. Although it’s hard to tell what race he is, the dinosaur-like tail he drags behind him is also very visually impactful.
I never thought that such a tough guy would actually take care of the scales on the tip of his tail! ?
"So there are so many races in the interstellar age, and everyone will take care of their scales. Am I the only one who doesn’t pay attention to it?"
Yu Mian flipped through it for a long time, and the more he flipped, the more he realized that it seemed that only his "special race" was careless and didn’t care about the life and death of his beautiful fish tail.
Not only does he not soak in water often, but he also stays up
late to write like crazy. In the past, once he had accumulated enough time for a transformation, he couldn't help but transform into a leg and run out to play. No wonder his legs would be itchy and dry every time he came back .
So wild, not delicate at all.
Yu Mian looked at the various products on the Star Network, especially the most popular Brilliant Moisturizing Essence, and suddenly felt...
I really want to try it too?
"But I really don't have time to run out recently. The double drop update of "Eternal Night Rose" will continue for at least half a month, and I have to hurry up to write the second volume of "Star Soldier King". Alas-"
Yu Mian shook his fish tail, lay on the table and couldn't help but sigh.
Although he was lying on the table like this, he immediately saw the note that was pressed under the teacup.
"...Hey!"
Yu Mian pondered for a few seconds, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
[Ah, what are you going to do again? ]
The small system watched in horror as Yu Mian picked up the pen and quickly wrote on the paper.
So when Huo Ting returned to the study this time tonight, he saw a new note as expected.
[When you come back tomorrow, can you bring me a can of this? Or something similar. I will pay for it, thank you. ]
There was even a diagram of a small can drawn on the paper quite seriously, and even the LOGO was traced out.
The extremely unexpected content of this note really made Huo Ting, who had gradually gotten used to writing notes in the past few days, stunned again.
To be honest, this is the first time in my life that someone has made such a request to me.
But strangely, Huo Ting did not feel offended.
It may be that the other party's tone was very sincere, and it seemed that he really needed such a bottle of skin care products.
The only problem is that Huo Ting has never bought these things.
So when Huo Ting got off work from the military today, he suddenly asked the driver to stop the car, and Secretary Hals followed Huo Ting into the skin care product counter in the Central Shopping Mall with extreme hesitation.
"Is this good?"
When Huo Ting was looking for skin care products similar to the one on the note with an expressionless face, he habitually asked Secretary Hals beside him for reference.
"Ah... uh, you, I... I don't know either!"
Secretary Hals, who was still frantically wondering what was going on a second ago, was once in a rare situation of being at a loss for words and being at a loss for words.
After all, this question is beyond his knowledge reserve blind spot.
Just standing here, being stared at by the sales ladies not far away with subtle curiosity and surprise, Hals already feels like a thorn in his back.
This is simply hundreds of times more difficult than going to the battlefield.
I can only say that the young master is really not right recently.
Every day after work, he goes back to the study on time, as if there is something waiting for someone there!
Could it be that he is really possessed...
