In the morning, Shen Cheng was woken up by a knock on the door.
Sitting up from the sofa, Shen Cheng stared with dead eyes and walked to the door in a daze.
That’s right, Shen Cheng slept on the sofa at night.
Because Chen Cheng had thrown Yiran onto his bed before, the hair that Yiran had just brought out of the sea directly soaked a large area of Chen Cheng's bed, so he definitely couldn't sleep.
When he opened the door, he saw Liu Yingxia holding a backpack and said to Chen Cheng with a smile: "Chen Cheng, good morning."
"Oh, good morning." Chen Cheng was stunned for a moment, then said good morning with a smile, and moved aside to make way for Liu Yingxia.
Looking at the backpack in Liu Yingxia's arms, Chen Cheng guessed that Liu Yingxia must have come to discuss with him the policy of Hongguo's mission execution?
After Liu Yingxia walked into the room, Chen Cheng closed the door, turned his head, and watched Liu Yingxia sit down on his bed, then opened her backpack and fell onto the bed.
“Clatter—”
A large pile of snacks fell from the backpack onto the bed. Then Liu Yingxia threw away the backpack and said to Chen Cheng, "Chen Cheng, let's eat these in the morning!"
Shen Cheng: “…”
Okay, I was overthinking it.
Chen Cheng motioned Liu Yingxia to wait a moment, then went to the bathroom, washed his face to refresh himself, and then sat on the bed with Liu Yingxia between them, without any hesitation, picked up a bag of snacks, tore open the package and stuffed it into his mouth.
After Liu Yingxia quickly devoured a small piece of bread, she smiled smugly and said to Chen Cheng, "Come to think of it, I'm a C-level special agent, and you still have to call me senior."
"Okay, okay." Chen Cheng's attitude was a bit perfunctory: "Senior Xiao Liu, is it okay to call you that?"
"Boring." Liu Yingxia curled her lips.
"Speaking of which, are you a person with superpowers? The black dagger I saw in your hand last night looked very cool. What kind of superpower is that?" After swallowing the snacks in his mouth, Shen Cheng asked.
"Control the dark elements you come into contact with." Liu Yingxia knew that if she wanted to cooperate, she had to understand her partner's abilities, so she spoke frankly, and at the same time stretched out her right hand with an intention.
A slightly transparent black dagger appeared in her hand.
"Dark elements?" Chen Cheng subconsciously thought of the foreigner with shadow abilities he encountered when he was besieging a foreign organization in Mio City. That ability was actually quite abnormal, but it was not very useful for people with such abilities.
Glancing at the big sun on the sea outside the window, and then at the black short knife in Liu Yingxia's hand, Shen Cheng was a little puzzled: "Didn't you summon this knife in the sunlight?"
"There is actually darkness hidden beneath the light, but it cannot be seen by the naked eye." As she said this, Liu Yingxia adjusted her sitting position so that her back was facing the sun, and then placed the dagger under her shadow.
After the short knife entered Liu Yingxia's shadow, its color immediately became much darker.
"The darker it is, the more powerful the dark elements I control become. I can also change their shape at will. Conversely, the more exposed it is to sunlight, the more fragile the dark elements I control become."
After explaining, Liu Yingxia let the dagger dissipate on its own, then turned to look at Chen Cheng: "Chen Cheng, what is your ability? I heard you say that you read the memory of Yiran. Is that the ability of Owl Huanya?"
Liu Yingxia saw with her own eyes last night how Chen Cheng easily clamped Shark Wind's wrist. Logically speaking, the increase in human strength caused by Avian Phantom should not be that great.
"It's the ability of the owl Huanya, but besides that, I also have other Huanya abilities." Shen Cheng counted them all on his fingers, "There's the ability of the cat Huanya, the ability of the dog Huanya, the ability of the tiger Huanya, the ability of the wolf Huanya, the ability of the crow Huanya, the ability of the mermaid to control water, and the ability to control the weak five elements."
Listening to Chen Cheng's explanation, Liu Yingxia frowned in confusion at first, then gradually became astonished, and finally her mouth was so shocked that it could fit an egg: "You...you are not kidding me, right?"
"I don't need to joke with you." Chen Cheng said seriously: "I don't know why, I can inject all the Fantasy Asian gene potions, and the gene matching rate with all Fantasy Asians is over 90%."
“…”
Looking at Chen Cheng's serious expression, Liu Yingxia was silent for a moment, then muttered softly: "Pervert..."
Shen Cheng: “…”
But then, Liu Yingxia felt a lot more relaxed.
With an ultimate stitched monster like Chen Cheng around, there's no need to worry too much about combat power as long as we don't encounter an awakened one.
Then, the two began to eat snacks and chat, after all, there was not much to do on the boat all day.
During this period, Liu Yingxia was talking most of the time, explaining how she became a special agent and how she carried out her missions, while Chen Cheng was quietly listening most of the time.
After becoming a special investigator, Liu Yingxia has grown a lot and has always been very active in carrying out her tasks. In less than five years, she has become a C-level special investigator.
Not long after, the two of them were full. Looking at the snacks still piled up like a small mountain on the bed, Shen Cheng said, "Put them away first."
"Just leave it here with you. You can continue eating it tomorrow morning." Liu Yingxia rubbed her belly, raised her head and lay on Chen Cheng's bed. Then she shuddered and sat up suddenly: "Wow, it's so wet!"
"Heh..." Chen Cheng smiled faintly and began to help Liu Yingxia pack up the snacks like an old father: "The breakfast in the restaurant on the ship is also very delicious. Don't eat snacks all the time. It's unhealthy."
"Ahh, here we go again, old father mode. It's always been like this since I was a kid." Liu Yingxia closed her eyes and covered her ears, shaking her head repeatedly: "I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen!"
Chen Cheng was used to it, and subconsciously reached out to tap Liu Yingxia's forehead as he did in the past, but when his hand was halfway extended, he suddenly froze, then silently retracted it and continued to put the uneaten snacks into Liu Yingxia's backpack.
Liu Yingxia closed her eyes for a moment, but she didn't wait until she felt the familiar touch on her forehead. She opened her eyes a little, barely noticeable, and saw that Chen Cheng was just silently packing her things, with no intention of making any other unnecessary movements.
A hint of sadness flashed across Liu Yingxia's eyes, but she quickly concealed it. After adjusting her mentality, she began to clean up the mess with Shen Cheng.
After that, neither of them communicated much. After packing up their things, Liu Yingxia put on her backpack, said hello to Shen Cheng, and quietly returned to her cabin.
After returning to the room and closing the door, Liu Yingxia threw her backpack on the sofa, took off her shoes, lay on the bed, and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
Only then did she realize that although she and Shen Cheng reunited and became colleagues, some things, once over, would be difficult to start over again naturally.
My heart... suddenly felt a little empty...
