Chapter 37 Do you want to read it?
Jinmu pushed Shen Yu in front, and Wen Wan followed behind them.
When he reached the door of the study, Shen Yu didn't even turn his head and said coldly: "If you are not related to me, don't follow me in."
Wen Wan was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw the little tail behind her.
"Winn, we have some serious business to attend to. Please wait for me in the yard."
The pale and thin young man carefully held Wenwan's sleeve, staring at her with burning eyes. When he heard the words, the light in his eyes dimmed.
"Yeah." He responded in a low voice, then put down his hand in disappointment.
Wen Wan saw that he looked sad and aggrieved, and her heart softened, and her tone became softer.
"Alright, you're a head taller than me, how come you're even better at acting like a spoiled brat than me? Be good, wait until I'm done with my work, and then I'll buy you some delicious snacks, okay?"
When she coaxes people, her eyes are bright and filled with an unconscious doting.
Winn seemed stunned for a moment, then he couldn't look away.
Wen Wan raised her hand and touched his head, then said with a smile, "Don't follow me again this time."
Without waiting for Wen En's response, Wen Wan turned and walked into the study, waved at him, and closed the door.
The door blocked Winn's view and he stood there for a moment before coming to his senses.
If Wen Wan were still here, she would have noticed that the young man at this moment did not look aggrieved or pitiful at all.
He had a gloomy expression, and there was only numbness and indifference in his eyes.
He unconsciously clenched his fists with his hands hanging at his sides, and a slight force caused a piercing pain in his wrists.
He sighed, and his eyes instantly sank to the bottom.

An inch-long brocade box was placed on the desk.
"Open it."
Shen Yu gave the order in a deep voice, and Jin Mu stepped forward to open the brocade box. When he opened the brocade box, Jin Mu subconsciously glanced at Wen Wan.
There was no expression on Wen Wan's face, just... very relaxed.
Maybe she doesn't know what important things are inside. Once she sees it, she won't be so relaxed.
The box was opened, revealing three black parts in the middle of a layer of red brocade.
A thumb-long round tube, a ring-shaped disc as thick as a fingernail, and a long, jagged square.
"That's it! I thought it was some amazing antique."
To Kaneki's surprise, Wenwan's expression didn't change at all, and she was even more relaxed than before.
Jin Mu twitched his lips and muttered, "I was saying that Miss Xiaowan, a girl, definitely doesn't know the importance of these things. Someone who really knows about them would definitely be amazed..."
He couldn't finish his complaint before he could go on.
Because Wen Wan had already reached out and picked up the three parts and started fiddling with them, but in the blink of an eye, there was a "click" sound.
The lock snaps shut, and the three parts become one.
Kaneki was so scared that he stuttered, "You, you, you..."
Wen Wan rolled her eyes at him. "What do you mean? It's just a little thing used on a crossbow. What's the big deal?"
"You, you understand?" Kaneki's face was filled with horror.
Wen Wan raised her lips and smiled lightly, "I know a little bit, but I don't understand it very well."
Kaneki: “…”
Shen Yu: “…”
Now they can no longer face the words "know a thing or two" seriously.
Shen Yu stared at her sharply, "Tell me everything you know about it."
"Okay, my honorable Big Brother!"
Whoever pays is the boss. Wen Wan adopted a gentle attitude of making money and began to give a professional introduction.
"This is a key component of a repeating crossbow. Ordinary crossbows can only fire one round, and the next round requires a long replacement of short arrows. However, a repeating crossbow can carry more short arrows and fire continuously, so its lethality is naturally greater."
Wen Wan had seen this repeating crossbow in a document on the evolution of ancient weapons.
At that time, she was itching to make one, so she referred to the drawings and found materials to restore one of the models on a one-to-one basis.
In the era of cold weapons, this repeating crossbow was a high-end equipment of that era, enough to change the situation on the battlefield.
She spoke fluently and in a relaxed tone, and fiddled with the parts in a casual manner.
This casualness formed a sharp contrast with Shen Yu's heaviness.
Shen Yu: "Have you seen this... a repeating crossbow?"
"I..." Wen Wan suddenly noticed Shen Yu's expression, she woke up suddenly, cold sweat on her back.
It is a crime to possess a treasure, this has been the case since ancient times.
If she was just a Feng Shui master who was looking for dragons and determining the location of the acupoints, she would be an ordinary tool that they could use.
But if there is a craftsman who can make powerful weapons, then for them, it is a sharp weapon. If they cannot use it for themselves, it must not fall into the hands of others.
Wen Wan was sure that as long as she said she had seen it, they would try every means to control her and would never let her be free.
"Of course I haven't seen it."
Wen Wan changed the subject and said calmly:
"I've only seen the introduction in a book. These three are the key components. When I saw it just now, I tried to put them together according to the book's instructions. I didn't expect it to actually work."
“I was surprised too~”
Wen Wan spread her hands and picked up the teacup to drink water strategically.
Shen Yu and Jin Mu kept staring at her, as if trying to see something from her face.
Wen Wan's heart was beating like a war drum, but she didn't show it on her face.
After a long time, Shen Yu calmed down and asked, "Where is that book? What's it called?"
"Uh..." Wen Wan said stiffly, "I told you not to be angry."
Shen Yu said nothing.
Wen Wan: "I accidentally dropped the book into the brazier and it burned. My master was very angry at the time and gave me a good beating. I still have a scar on my buttocks now."
She walked over happily, bent down and whispered in his ear, "I'm serious, do you want to see? There really is a scar."
Look, what are you looking at?
Look at the butt?
Look at the scar?
Shen Yu's head was confused, and the seriousness and depth just now were instantly broken by her teasing words.
Kaneki on the side also looked confused. Miss Xiaowan was so domineering and didn't play by the rules at all!
Shen Yu's solar plexus was throbbing, and he said to Jin Mu in a cold voice: "You go out first."
"yes!"
In this situation, Kaneki was afraid that if he heard any more, he would be retaliated by the general, so he quickly left the door.
Whether you use a continuous crossbow or not, your life is not as important as it used to be.
Inside the room, Chen Yu had a cold face. "You're full of lies. Do you think you can fool me by interrupting me in this way?"
Wen Wan was indeed planning to tell a dirty joke and then brush off this life-threatening topic.
If he asked her any more questions, she wouldn't be able to explain clearly.
"Haha," Wen Wan laughed dryly, "Ah, this was exposed by the wise and intelligent Captain Zhou."
"Shao Pin," Shen Yu said sternly with a serious expression:
"Zhao Xiaowan, this matter is very important. If you don't explain the source of the crossbow, I won't let you leave this door today."
