"Okay, okay." Looking at Yu Lan standing at the door of the main building with a confused look on her face, Chen Cheng pulled his hand away and said with a smile: "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"I'm not... anxious." Yu Lan subconsciously wanted to increase the volume, but she immediately suppressed it.
Well, you have to maintain your image, you must maintain your image and not let the other party take control of you.
"Just follow me from now on." Shen Cheng said with a faint smile.
Come to think of it, even Chen Cheng had never appreciated the scenery of the capital.
Following the instructions Yan Jinfang left him, Chen Cheng brought Yu Lan to the parking lot of the Institute of Biological Sciences, and then took out the car keys from his pocket.
"Ding ding--" The moment the car key was pressed, the sound of a brand new black car in the parking lot rang.
It was a car that couldn't be more ordinary, the kind that no one would even glance at if it were parked on the street, but this was exactly what Shen Cheng wanted.
Walking to the front of the car, Chen Cheng opened the passenger door and made a very elegant gesture of invitation to Yu Lan.
Yu Lan rolled her eyes at Chen Cheng and sat in the passenger seat.
Shen Cheng closed the car door and got in the driver's seat.
Before starting the car, Chen Cheng kept praying in his heart, hoping that no bad luck would befall him today, and then he carefully stepped on the accelerator.
The car started slowly. Seeing Shen Cheng's nervous look, almost sweating, Yu Lan couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Why are you driving like it's your first time?"
"You don't understand." Shen Cheng shook his head and drove away from the Institute of Biological Sciences.
Because the Institute of Biological Sciences was located in a remote area of the capital, Shen Cheng drove for half an hour before reaching the city center.
Seeing that there were no accidents along the way, Shen Cheng was relieved. It seemed that Yan Jinfang's guess was correct.
Although Shen Cheng had never been to the capital, when he went out for fun, he would usually go to places like zoos, aquariums, and amusement parks.
After getting out of the car, Yu Lan looked at the bustling streets with people coming and going, and her behavior couldn't help but feel a little unnatural, but even so, she still put on a relaxed attitude.
"Let's go to the zoo first. I heard that the West City Zoo in Beijing is very good." Chen Cheng suggested to Yu Lan.
In his opinion, someone like Yu Lan, who lives in an office all day and does biological research, might be more interested in living animals.
Yu Lan nodded calmly: "Well, I'll listen to you."
"Then let's go, follow me closely." After hearing the reply, Shen Cheng turned around and walked towards the zoo.
Yu Lan hurriedly caught up with Chen Cheng, brushing shoulders with passers-by from time to time, feeling extremely nervous.
The more nervous Yu Lan became, the more tense her face became, and she looked a little cold and unapproachable.
After Shen Cheng walked for a while, he turned around and found that Yu Lan had actually kept a distance from him, and her walking posture seemed a little stiff.
Seeing this, Shen Cheng sighed helplessly and took the initiative to reach out and hold the wrist of this otaku girl: "We agreed to let Huanya enter human society, you can't do this."
Yu Lan turned her head away: "I am a promoter, not a practitioner."
Chen Cheng, who was holding Yu Lan's wrist, took the initiative to cooperate with Yu Lan to slow down his pace, admiring the prosperous scene of the capital along the way.
Yu Lan, whose wrist was held by Chen Cheng, kept her head down, not knowing what she was thinking.
When Shen Cheng noticed Yu Lan's appearance, he couldn't help but feel a headache.
If Yu Lan continues like this, there will be no fun at all.
Soon, the two arrived at the zoo, paid for their tickets, and walked in side by side.
After entering the zoo, Yu Lan became interested and looked around.
Shen Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. This was a good start.
Unfortunately, Yu Lan became silent as soon as she got outside, so Chen Cheng had to take the initiative to find topics to talk about with Yu Lan.
"Yu Lan, look, owls." As they walked, Chen Cheng suddenly noticed a few silly birds perched on a branch, and pointed them out to Yu Lan with a smile.
When Yu Lan saw the owl, her eyes lit up slightly. She and Shen Cheng walked forward and looked inside through the glass.
"You look so silly..." Looking at Yu Lan, Shen Cheng smiled intentionally or unintentionally.
Yu Lan's mouth twitched, and she patted Shen Cheng on the body: "You are stupid!"
Little did she know that to passersby, her actions looked like a young couple flirting.
"Speaking of which, does the Institute of Biological Sciences often take in Huanya in the zoo?" Turning to look at the owl inside, Chen Cheng suddenly asked.
"Not many." Yu Lan shook her head. "Take the people you know, only Nana and Lingxue were zoo animals transformed into phantoms."
It turns out Lingxue was transformed from a ferret in the zoo...
Shen Cheng nodded and wrote it down silently.
"If an animal suddenly transformed into a phantom in public, it would probably cause a commotion."
Yu Lan added: "So far, there has been no case of an animal transforming into a phantom in public. Generally, when they are discovered, they are already phantoms."
“But Xue’er turned into Huanya right under my nose…” Shen Cheng couldn’t help but say.
"You are an exception...or rather, you are an exception everywhere. Nothing that happens to you will surprise me." Yu Lan complained.
Upon hearing this, Shen Cheng scratched his head with a wry smile.
After seeing the owl, Yu Lan became a little more talkative, and the two went to see other animals. During this time, they unknowingly changed from Chen Cheng holding Yu Lan's wrist to holding hands very naturally.
"It's a panda..."
When he saw the big round black and white balls in the isolation fence, Shen Cheng took out his mobile phone and took two photos.
This was the first time Shen Cheng had seen a panda in person.
“Speaking of which, the Bear Country has Bear Huanya, the United States has Eagle Huanya, why don’t we have Panda Huanya?” After taking the photo, Shen Cheng couldn’t help but sigh.
Yu Lan shook her head: "It's not a bad thing. After all, pandas are rare to begin with, and turning into a phantom is also a different kind of loss."
I don’t know if it was because of Chen Cheng’s affinity for animals, but when a red panda saw Chen Cheng, it innocently came up to him and made eye contact with him.
"It seems that this panda is also a girl." Seeing this, Yu Lan said with a smile.
The corners of Chen Cheng's mouth twitched slightly, and he always felt that Yu Lan was saying something obscurely.
"Do you want to go in and hug it?" Yu Lan suddenly said to Chen Cheng.
Shen Cheng was slightly stunned: "It seems that it is not possible?"
"Don't forget your identity as a special investigator." Yu Lan raised her index finger and said, "A special investigator has considerable authority. As long as you go to the director and reveal your identity and tell him you want to conduct an investigation, he will quickly arrange for you to do so."
Could the identity of a special agent be used like this?!
Shen Cheng shook his head repeatedly when he heard this: "Forget it, it's too troublesome."
Afterwards, the two of them went to see animals like foxes and penguins. Whenever Chen Cheng saw these animals, he would subconsciously associate them with Huanya, whom he knew.
After walking around the zoo for a while, the two of them left the zoo. Each of them bought a cup of hot milk tea and drank it while sitting on a bench by the roadside.
