Chapter 6: Run away when the bloody storm blows
In any case, Yu Mian's novice task progress bar of 10,000 popularity points is growing at an almost outrageous speed at this moment.
Although Yu Mian, who had been coding at the limit a few hours ago, saw that the manuscript had been successfully submitted to the platform for review, he was already so tired that he unconsciously slumped over the desk.
I don't know why, the Xingji optical computer codes faster, but it seems to consume a lot of energy.
Yu Mian was in a highly nervous state. After trying his best to write the first 30,000 words, he could hardly open his eyelids and felt listless. He
originally wanted to crawl back into the fish tank, but he had no strength.
The beautiful fish tail also hung pitifully on the carpet.
I don't know whether the novice mission can be completed after the review and release.
And the person who said before would arrange someone to move the fish tank and throw it away, when will he do it?
"Squeak--"
Just when Yu Mian was drowsy, the door
of the study room really opened quietly. But the guy who pushed the door open seemed to be very short, so he had to stand on tiptoe to push up the gilded handle.
Huo Yan, who had come here with great difficulty, grabbed the edge of the door and looked outside for a long time.
After confirming that he had gotten rid of the nanny and her group, he closed the door proudly and looked at his cousin Huo Ting's study room curiously.
I have to be careful, I will definitely be scolded to death if I am found out.
I must steal back the failing report card sent by the school...
Once my cousin Huo Ting finds out, my parents who are visiting from another galaxy will definitely know about it, and then I will be doomed!
Just when Huo Yan was groping and popping his head out from the desk, he was caught off guard and saw Yu Mian lying in front of him. His eyes almost widened.
Yu Mian was so tired that his head ached slightly. He opened his eyes only after he heard the movement in a daze.
The two, one big and one small, stared at each other in a straight line.
"You, you are... um!"
Just when Huo Yan was so shocked that he stuttered and opened his mouth, he fell into a slightly cold embrace in the next second.
Even his mouth was covered tightly.
“Mmmm!?”
“Don’t scream, okay? I swear I’m not a bad guy…”
Just when Huo Yan was so scared that he wanted to speak, Yu Mian was so anxious that he had to lower his voice to coax this little guy who appeared inexplicably.
It was quiet in an instant, and Yu Mian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It just felt like holding a small hot water kettle in his arms.
Yu Mian looked down at the little guy in his arms, whose mouth was covered and whose face suddenly turned red and heated up rapidly. He blinked a few times blankly.
He didn’t realize what a close-range face attack was.
But a voice came from outside the door at the right time:
“Yes, it’s here. We need to deal with a fish tank…”
Yu Mian:…? !
Are you running here to throw away the fish tank now? Do you really have to be so efficient! ?
Yu Mian was so shocked that he even loosened his hand that was covering the mouth of the "small hot water kettle" and turned to look outside the door.
Fortunately, the group of people paused for a moment at the door.
"Wait a minute, I'm contacting Secretary Hals to confirm whether we can move in now."
The voice of the secretary in charge of logistics came.
Although there are no important confidential documents for work in the study room of the old house, because this is just the place where Master Huo Ting studied, lived and lived when he was a child.
But if you want to enter, you probably have to ask Secretary Hals to confirm it again.
After all, everyone is very confused. The fish tank was obviously installed not long ago.
How could a completely opposite order suddenly come in such a short time?
And this short waiting time, in Yu Mian's eyes, is just like the waiting period before the death penalty.
It's better not to have it!
Just let this group of people break in directly...
"What's wrong with you? Don't you want those people outside to come in?"
However, the small hot water kettle that Yu Mian released did not move at all. Instead, it squatted next to Yu Mian's fish tail and asked quietly in a whisper, imitating Yu Mian's previous question.
"You seem to be injured. Your face is so pale. Do you need medicine?"
Although Huo Yan's grades in school are not good, his observation ability has always been very sharp.
"Your fish tail is really beautiful... Can it move?"
Even at this moment, Huo Yan seemed to have a hundred thousand whys. Even if he didn't get a single answer from Yu Mian who was listening to the noise outside the door, he didn't feel lost at all.
Instead, he lowered his head and quickly glanced at Yu Mian's fish tail, then moved his body to the side and squatted, as if he was afraid of hurting Yu Mian.
"......?"
Yu Mian, who had just regained his attention from the door, was a little confused for a moment by the self-conscious behavior of the little guy next to him.
Why did this guy want to learn to hide here with him?
Is this a game of hide-and-seek?
"Aren't you afraid that I'm a bad guy?"
Yu Mian was a little hesitant.
After all, this little guy looked not simple, and his clothes were obviously of great quality, but he didn't have any vigilance at all.
Are the little guys in the interstellar era more stupid and easy to deceive? If they
were all like this, wouldn't it be easy for traffickers to deceive a lot of children in kindergarten.
"Ah, how could you be a bad guy!"
Huo Yan was even more emotional than Yu Mian.
Yu Mian:
"Because you don't look like a bad guy."
Huo Yan was very sure of this.
"Did my cousin kidnap you?"
So facing Yu Mian's stunned expression, Huo Yan tried to think hard, trying to come up with a reasonable answer for Yu Mian.
"Who is your cousin?"
Yu Mian sighed while holding the back of the chair. Although he didn't know how this little hot water kettle came to the conclusion, he was too bothered to explain anything.
After all, he was not a bad person.
He was just a victim of an unreasonable system! He just
made a wish for a computer at the beginning, but the system didn't bring the computer to his eyes, but instead brought him to someone else's computer and he died on the spot.
What kind of outrageous novel can write such a social networking system...
"My cousin is Huo Ting... He is a devil!"
When mentioning his cousin Huo Ting, Huo Yan's expression became obviously painful.
At such a young age, he seemed to have experienced too much torture that was hard to describe.
But for Yu Mian, if the situation is not so urgent, it is really interesting to talk to this small hot water kettle.
But now he has no strength in his body, and even the fish tail is too weak to lift up.
Moreover, even if he crawls back into the fish tank, he will most likely be thrown away with the fish tank immediately.
Is it possible to hide behind the desk, pray not to be discovered, and finally...
Yu Mian can't think of what will happen in the end.
So after a moment of silence, Yu Mian, whose head is getting more and more dizzy, still can't help but reach out and pinch Huo Yan's tender cheeks.
Huo Yan:!
O///O
Huo Yan, who was still angry a second ago, suddenly blushed and steamed again.
In fact, Yu Mian was quite afraid of children, especially those who liked to cry and scream loudly.
But this little hot kettle was quite interesting.
Although he had a very eccentric personality, he was well-educated in many details of his dealings with others. He
was going to die anyway, so it would be nice to satisfy his desire to do something.
"Wait, that's not right. You are seriously overdrawn in mental strength. How can you do such a dangerous thing! Don't you have any basic common sense?"
At the moment when Huo Yan was rubbed in the face by Yu Mian, he finally realized something extremely shocking through the opportunity of the fingertips touching.
Almost no one in the universe can bear the consequences of overdrawing mental strength.
Because this is equivalent to exposing the brain completely to the chaotic radiation pollution of the universe without any protective measures.
Even though the central galaxy is the area with the lowest radiation pollution, no one would dare to use up their mental power to this extent.
"Mental power?"
That's right, this seems to be an interstellar novel... It's not surprising that there is a setting for mental power.
But does a person like me who travels through a book also have mental power?
While Yu Mian was fighting against sleepiness, he looked at Huo Yan, who seemed to be anxious as if he couldn't explain it clearly.
"Yes, you, your fingertips have subconsciously tried to absorb my mental power."
"This is really a sign of extreme physical overdraft!"
Huo Yan was pinched on the face obediently, while he was anxiously explaining.
As a descendant of the Huo family, although he had already suffered a huge bloodline weakening, the high-quality mental power that he awakened unexpectedly belonged to the first batch.
"But I haven't learned yet... I haven't learned how to transmit mental power, so I can't save you!"
For the first time in his life, Huo Yan regretted that he didn't listen carefully in class.
This is obviously one of the emergency rescue skills that high-level mentalists can learn.
Even his cousin once mentioned the principle to him, but he just ignored it at the time.
"No, I have to let Qiao Ni and the others notify the hospital to send someone over! Or let my cousin come back!"
Huo Yan stood up anxiously as he realized the seriousness of the problem.
If only his cousin was here, he would definitely be able to handle everything!
"But I can't go to the hospital, I came here by accident."
Yu Mian, who was getting more and more drowsy, didn't understand why this little guy was so anxious.
"Maybe I can just take a nap..."
Besides, he just wrote some novels and didn't use any mental power, right?
In fact, before Yu Mian crossed into the book, he often stayed up late to write for a long time. Every time he finished writing an update, he felt that his brain was exhausted and he just wanted to go to bed.
In a sense, this can indeed be called running out of mental energy.
Although at the moment, he does seem to be a little strangely sleepy...
Could it be that the mission failed and he didn't collect enough popularity points, so he was going to leave the world?
Yu Mian, who thought he had guessed the answer, couldn't hold it anymore. The next second after he finished speaking, he closed his eyes completely.
!
"No, don't sleep--"
Huo Yan was so scared when he saw this scene that he screamed, his eyes widened, and he reached out to support Yu Mian.
"What's going on in there?!"
The people outside the door also heard the unusual noise in the study. The leader, Muniel, almost instantly pulled out his gun and broke into the room. The next second, he aimed at the source of the noise in the study.
"Young Master Huo Yan...? Why are you in the study?"
Muniel's face was extremely serious and cold a second ago. After seeing the scene in the study, his hand holding the gun froze for a moment.
Young Master Huo Yan, who has always been a devil, is now standing in the middle of the study with tears in his eyes.
In his hand... is he holding a fish?
"Wuwuwu...ah?"
Huo Yan was so anxious that he almost lost his temper a second ago.
At this moment, after being surrounded by a group of people outside the study door, Huo Yan regained some composure, blinking his wet eyes and looking at his palm.
Ah?
That, that good-looking brother is gone!
Instead, there was a weak and quiet little golden fish in his palm.
The beautiful fish tail hung down like a quiet starlight scattered, gentle and fragile.
"Are you catching a fish?"
Muniel looked at the fish in Huo Yan's hand, and then looked at the landscape fish tank next to him.
He had to come up with such an absurd but reasonable explanation.
The reason why it was reasonable was probably because it seemed that this was indeed something that young master Huo Yan could do.
After all, this little golden fish was indeed the most obviously different one in the entire fish tank.
Even Muniel thought that this fish was indescribably... beautiful.
It was probably because the child saw it and thought it was fun, so he directly pulled the fish out.
"If you play like this, the fish will die."
Muniel took back his weapon, apologized for his previous rudeness, but couldn't help talking about this matter.
"..."
Huo Yan knew that he was misunderstood.
But thinking of what the other party said at the last moment, "You can't go to the hospital, you came here by accident"...
Huo Yan quickly realized that the other party didn't seem to want outsiders to know his existence.
Maybe I need to keep this secret.
After a while, with a "plop", Huo Yan, who was standing on a stool, tiptoed and carefully put the little fish in the palm of his hand back into the water.
Fortunately, Huo Yan was relieved that the little fish did not float in the water, but really recovered a little vitality.
Although the movement of swimming downwards was very slow and drowsy, it was obviously still conscious.
Finally, it actually hid in the conch at the bottom of the fish tank, hiding quietly inside without moving.
Only a small piece of light golden tail was left outside.
It looked very safe.
"Is it using the conch as a bed and hiding inside to sleep? It's quite interesting."
Even Muniel, a grown man, subconsciously found it funny when he saw this scene.
After all, there are not many places in the universe that can afford such a huge and luxurious landscape fish tank, let alone the opportunity to appreciate it.
"In fact, it's not bad to keep it in the study, watch the fish when you are tired from work, and relax your eyes and mental strength. Why do you have to throw it away, Secretary Muniel?"
The people on the side were obviously a little puzzled.
"What? Throw it away? Who allowed to throw away this fish tank!"
Huo Yan, who was leaning against the fish tank to observe the conch just a second ago, immediately got angry when he heard the key words.
Facing Huo Yan's anger, the group looked at each other for a while.
...?
"But it was Young Master Huo Ting's order, you have no right to stop it, right?"
Secretary Munier was a little embarrassed for a while.
"Although Young Master Huo Ting is handling urgent official business, he just contacted him several times but didn't get through."
"Who ordered this fish tank?"
Huo Yan's brain worked quickly.
If his cousin doesn't agree, then it means that someone else arranged the fish tank!
"Well, it's General Huo, but he's not in the Central Galaxy right now. He goes to the East Bay Resort every July and August for vacation, as you know."
When Huo Yan heard Munier's explanation, his eyes lit up instantly.
"I want to call my grandfather! I miss him!"
As for Yu Mian, who had already fallen asleep, he had no idea that he would be unconscious for five whole days.
And this book, "Agreement Marriage", which only published a crematorium and started a bloody storm, naturally stopped updating for five whole days!
