Chapter Forty-Nine: Women and Men
It was late at night, and Zhou Li hadn't come back yet.
Huai Xu sat at his desk, holding a short knife in his hand, and looked closer to the light.
Look, look.
Looked and looked.
After reading it, change it, and keep watching.
When it's over, change it back, and so on.
The two knives were identical, but after many battles, they became unique because of the life-and-death battles - it was obvious that one had a blunt blade, and the other had more openings.
But no matter how dull it is, it sharpens iron like clay.
The notch is also too small to be seen, but it adds serration to the blade and makes it sharper.
He took the disposable chopsticks, spoon and toothpick next to him and tried it, and said to himself as he tried it: "You always say that I am reluctant to throw away the garbage after ordering takeout, won't this come in handy?"
Chopsticks snap at the touch of a button.
The rest too.
Huai Xu threw everything into the trash, and then aimed at Zhou Li's needle pen: "It's all over......
The sound of a door lock clattering.
The short knife immediately disappeared from Huaixu's hand.
He was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously put back half of the pen.
Then there was a sound of footsteps in the living room, and then, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Zhou Li walked in.
"You're back. Huai Xu said.
"Hmm. β
Zhou Li's voice was very soft, and after he reflexively closed the door, he saw half of the pen on the table.
Look down.
Huaixu ghost god said: "It's none of my business!"
The corners of Zhou Li's mouth twitched.
Only then did Huai Xu relax: "I thought you wouldn't need it, so I'll use it to try the knife." β
Zhou Li smiled: "Why are you so nervous, it's just a few dollars, and it's almost finished, have you tried anything?"
"Soon. β
"That's it?"
"They seem to listen to me, you seeβ"
Huai Xu said for a moment, and two short knives appeared in his hand in an instant, and then flew out, slowly flying around Zhou Li for half a circle, but did not fly to his hand, but exploded into green smoke and disappeared, and appeared in his hand.
"I seem to know how to use them. β
"It's yours in itself. Zhou Li looked at it and felt both cool and strange, and at the same time, it seemed to remind him that there was a fierce battle between humans and demons a long, long time ago, and at that time, I am afraid that both sides would have a hard time.
"That's right. Zhou Li said, "I went to Liu Xuehan's house today, and her cat ran away." β
"yes......"
Huai Xu was a little absent-minded.
Then Zhou Li described to him how sad the little girl was, and said: "She also showed me the surveillance, as well as the community, the demon did open the door by himself, and went out of the community directly, and there was no nostalgia at all." β
"Haha, I knew it would be like this, how could a demon be kept as a pet all the time!"
β......β
"Hmm? Huai Xu was stunned.
"Nothing. Zhou Li said.
"Yes!" Huai Xu was sure.
"I'm thinking, looking at you like this, you're completely thinking of yourself as a demon. Zhou Li said, "I'm afraid that you won't be happy to say it." β
"I ......"
Huai Xu said for a long time: "I may have only been a person for a few decades, but I have been a demon for two thousand years, and I am estimated to have lost my memory in the middle, and every time I lose my memory, it is equivalent to living again as a demon." β
"Let's talk about that little demon, I'll tell you, I want to ask you what kind of psychology that that little demon holds. β
"Of course it's rice!"
"Then why is it leaving?" Zhou Li thought that the conditions of the little girl's house were not bad.
"Then you have to ask it, do you want to ask?" Huai Xu looked at him and said, "I'll help you find it, I promise to find it!"
"Forget it. β
"Hmm......"
Zhou Li looked at the three things on the desk arranged in a row, and he picked up the hairpin.
Wooden hairpin, without any patterns.
Zhou Li said strangely: "I can't tell if it's a man or a woman, so ...... you in the end?"
Huai Xu said: "Hold it steady, don't fall." β
Zhou Li: ......
Suddenly, Huaixu snatched the hairpin from his hand and said, "Your brother is here, and he can't tell you when he sees it." β
Knock knock.
Zhou Li turned around and shouted, "Come in." β
The door was opened a crack, and Zhu Shuang asked, "Do you want to eat turkey noodles?"
"No...... Eat it!"
"Eat?"
"Hmm. β
"Then I'll cook two more packets. β
"Okay, I'll wash the dishes later. β
"Yes. β
The crack in the door closed again.
Zhou Li looked to the side helplessly: "That thing is very spicy, can you eat it!"
Huai Xu blinked: "I'm in a bad mood right now, and I urgently need to add something that can make me happy, otherwise something will go wrong." Didn't you hear Hongran say that the Pingding Army is the elite, if I become a big demon king, what movie did you watch, it was a veteran who came back after being discharged from the army, killing all sides, and bleeding like a river......"
Zhou Li: ......
This is a chatterbox.
Zhu Shuang also added two fried eggs to the noodles, although the frying was not very good, but the sense of happiness was very strong.
Huaixu ate very happily.
Zhou Li chatted with Brother Nan on the side.
Li Dumao: My family has launched a new chopped pepper noodles, have you ever eaten it that is super delicious?
Zhou Li: I ate it, it was fresh and spicy.
Li Dumao: Do you remember when I told you that my dad's cooking is super delicious?
Zhou Li: I remember.
Li Dumao: I'll give you one to taste my father's handiwork, will you come?
Zhou Li: Is your family going to open a restaurant?
He was a little surprised, because Brother Nan's noodle restaurant has been around for many years, and when Yancheng had not yet been established as a city and was still called Yangyang, there were few dilapidated streets in the entire county, and her family's noodle restaurant was already supported at that crossroads.
After so many years, want to change careers?
Li Dumao: Well, in a few days, your brother Nan and I will be 19 years old, and I will be 10 years old, so why don't you come to my house for a light meal? I also invited a few classmates from the class, and a few from other classes, not much.
Zhou Li typingββ
I've got a little bit of a problem, that's it
Before the word was finished, Brother Nan's second message had already been sent: Don't say no, it's so close, you have nothing to do, don't delay you to be a tutor at night, come and exchange feelings with Brother Nan, and get along well in the future.
Zhou Li had to delete the words slowly, and sent again: Why are you typing so fast?
Li Dumao: I practiced by playing games.
Zhou Li: Oh, I see.
Li Dumao: [Expression]
Zhou Li turned off his phone.
Next to Huai Xu has changed into his appearance, picked up the bowl and walked out, Zhou Li looked confused, when he came back to his senses, only to see a slowly closed door, he immediately became afraid.
Outside, he could hear his own voiceβ
"Did you eat cleanly?"
"No, brother, you eat cleanly. β
"It tastes good. β
"There are more than a dozen packs. β
"Well, I'll do it tomorrow night. β
"Gotta get it!"
β......β
Zhou Li has not reacted yet.
A few days go by in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Li left the community and walked on the street, and he still couldn't forget Aunt Jiang's expression when she heard that he went to Brother Nan's house for dinner - that was eager to strip off his clothes, dress up again, and take three minutes to get the whole hairstyle.
