The midday breeze was warm, and the sun shone on the snow on the roadside, which was a little dazzling.

A man in his thirties, with a goatee and a somewhat lewd temperament, smiled and stopped a woman passing by.

The other pedestrians just glanced slightly over the side and didn't pay much attention.

The woman raised her head and looked at the man who suddenly appeared in front of her, like a frightened rabbit, and subconsciously took half a step back.

The man was not surprised by her reaction, just laughed self-deprecatingly, and then unhurriedly took out a cigarette case from his pocket, took out a cigarette, and held it in his mouth without lighting it.

"You may not know me, but I know you."

The man said.

The tone was a little lonely.

"I looked at your picture again in the morning, and you are still as beautiful as before, only recently haggard. When I heard about you, I immediately set out to look for you, you know? We came here on the same flight, but there was a fifteen-hour difference between us. ”

The woman was wearing a goose-yellow down jacket, which was her favorite color, but the man in front of her, she didn't know if she liked it or not.

The woman never thought she would see each other here, he seemed so strange, the two stood facing each other, silent to each other.

Until a voice appears.

"Why are you here?"

Xia Ren walked over and broke the awkward atmosphere.

"Acquaintance before?"

"Shrimp!"

Zhao Rou saw that it was him, and ran over with some excitement, and then answered the question just now: "I don't know him, this uncle suddenly stopped me, and then said a lot of inexplicable words, I almost called someone." ”

Xia Ren looked at the man.

He knew the other party, it was the B-level investigator who followed Jiufeng.

At this time, what is he doing in Dongpu City?

"Long time no see."

Xia Ren took the initiative to say hello, thinking about what Li Wan of the logistics department said yesterday, and already had some guesses in his heart.

"Long time no see, Natsuhito."

The real estate agent took the cigarette off his mouth and threw it into the trash can next to him.

The last time the two met was actually not far away, but because they didn't have much intersection, they weren't familiar at all.

"How does the city feel?"

"I just came here yesterday, and I haven't had time to go around."

After Xia Ren finished speaking, he asked, "Are you here because of that incident?" ”

"What about it?"

Zhao Rou didn't understand well, she looked at the two, and at this time she also knew that the two of them actually knew each other.

"Hmm."

The real estate agent looked quite distressed, raised his head and glanced at the sky, scratched the back of his head and said: "Originally, when I was notified yesterday, I thought it was just a simple investigation, but who would have thought that a new problem would occur here in the afternoon, this is really ...... Big trouble. ”

Xia Ren guessed correctly, the other party was really a B-level investigator who was sent because of Professor Yue's incident, and the new problem he said should be Niu Changshou determined that atypical insect phobia was a third-level plague, and then disclosed the information to the Foundation, the two events were linked, and the real estate agent must have realized that the time he wanted to investigate was probably closely related to this plague, so it was said that it was a big trouble.

"You are found in both places, plus the apostle last time, little brother, your talent, it's a pity not to join us, think about it?"

After the real estate agent finished speaking, he teased with half joking interest.

"I still prefer freedom."

Xia Ren didn't know how much his information was disclosed in the Foundation, and how much this B-class person knew about him, so he didn't plan to discuss too much with him in this regard, so he led the topic to the beginning and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

He looked at Zhao Rou.

The latter replied: "Because of my illness before, I don't know if I will have the opportunity to return to school, so I took a long leave of absence, and now that I am sick, I came here to go through the formalities." ”

The real estate agent touched his goatee and said to Xia Ren: "You also know some details, Ms. Zhao has a lot to do with this matter, originally I wanted to go directly to her last night, who knew that I just arrived in Jupiter City, and I learned the news that she came here, so I chased all the way, since you are so familiar with each other, then I don't need to negotiate with her specifically about the rest of the matter." ”

"Didn't Jiufeng come?"

In the morning, I had just met the broad-minded editor Ryoko, and Xia Ren thought of the woman who knew her past and wanted to have a child as soon as she met.

The real estate agent smiled and said, "Lord Jiufeng has more important things, of course, if you are willing to agree to Lord Jiufeng's request, I can help you contact her, presumably she will definitely put down what she is doing and come as quickly as possible." ”

"No, no, no, I'm just curious to ask."

Xia Ren waved his hand again and again to refuse.

"What the hell are you talking about?"

Zhao Rou didn't understand at all, and her little eyes were full of big doubts.

"Something trifle."

Xia Ren changed the subject and said, "Did you come by yourself?" ”

Zhao Rou shook her head: "No, my dad is also here, and there are ......"

Halfway through her words, Xia Ren realized it, turned her head, and saw Councilor Zhao Tianliang and his female secretary walking towards this side one after the other.

"Brother Xia!"

Seeing Xia Ren, Zhao Tianliang immediately quickened his pace.

"It seems that the little brother is very popular."

The real estate agent pulled out the foundation's black phone, glanced at the screen, and said, "I have other things to do, so I'll go first." ”

He walked straight away.

Zhao Tianliang and the secretary walked up, glanced at his back, and asked, "Who is he?" ”

"A friend."

Xia Ren said casually.

"I really didn't expect to see you here, Brother Xia, I haven't had a chance to thank you before, why don't you just right, let's have a meal together at noon?"

Zhao Tianliang was very enthusiastic.

Hearing this, Lu Yi and Lily's eyes lit up, and their faces were a little expectant.

Xia Ren looked at him and the female secretary behind him, sniffed, with the blessing of the second-level perception ability, his sense of smell was extremely sensitive, and he smelled a suspicious smell.

Looking down, Zhao Tianliang was still carrying a few packaging bags in his hands, which were all clothes he had just bought.

Tsk, in the clothing store...... Although he is not young, he is really wild to play.

Xia Ren looked at Zhao Rou and asked a somewhat inexplicable question: "Didn't your mother come along?" ”

"My mother?"

Zhao Rou was confused: "My mother died when I was a child, what's wrong?" ”

"That's fine."

Xia Ren turned his head and asked Qin Yun, "Are you hungry?" ”

Qin Yun knew what he meant, and touched Lily's fluffy hair, revealing a gentle smile.

"I'm hungry."
