Chapter III
"Yun Ming, let's separate here, you go back and see if there are any traces of 'them' in history."
"Okay, brother, the bones ......"
"God will help us out." After refusing Yun Ming to send him home, Mystery slowly walked out of the square.
After crossing a road, Mystery finds that there are more vehicles and crowds. Vehicles and crowds unconsciously bypassed the square, and everything returned to its original state when the mystery was solved. Enigma looked back at the rejuvenated plaza, chuckled, and walked on.
Looking at the crowd on the street, it was calm and peaceful. After school, the primary school students helped the elderly to cross the road, and the drivers on the road consciously stopped and waited, and the vehicles behind did not honk their horns irritably because they were stagnant ahead. Everyone on the street is smiling, but instead of being kind and friendly, it feels weird and numb.
"Aren't you tired" Mystery whispers "Everyone shows their best side to everyone under the sun, everyone has a mask of hypocrisy on their faces, and they will always tear the mask off in an unknown place to reveal their true nature. If it were me, I would be tired of it. ”
Mystery walks aimlessly along the road, passing by a small alley when he hears foul words coming from inside.
"Little bastard, let you scare us."
"Boss, this little girl's eyes are a little weird, they affect your mood, why don't you dig it out?"
"Yes, Xiao Dezi, you have won my heart."
Mystery saw several delinquent youths surrounding a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl punching and kicking her. The little girl didn't cry, just curled up in a ball and let them beat her.
"Hey, it's not good for a few little bastards to bully a little girl." Perhaps as fate would have it, Mystery decided to take care of it.
"Boy, Lao Tzu tells you, don't meddle in your business."
Three minutes later, the young men were all lying on the ground moaning. Mystery walked to the little girl and slowly squatted down, and said to the little girl in his softest voice, "Little girl, it's okay, the bad guy has been defeated by my brother, don't be afraid." ”
The little girl slowly raised her head, and was surprised that the girl's eyes turned out to be black and red! The little girl laughed self-deprecatingly at the sight of the riddle, and she slowly got up and limped out of the alley.
"Little girl, don't care what others think of you, it's enough to be yourself." Mystery stood up, patted the dust off his body, and walked to the other side of the alley.
The little girl paused, and turned to look at him. After a moment's thought, he walked in the direction the mystery had left.
Mystery returns home and opens the door just as he prepares to enter, when he finds a familiar figure at the top of the stairs. When I walked in, it was a little girl just now.
"I ...... No home......"
Seeing the little girl's pitiful eyes, Myxun sighed. "Well, if you're not afraid, I'll come in." With that, he entered the house. He didn't see it, and when he turned his head, the little girl smiled mischievously.
Entering the house, the girl looked curiously at the inside of the room. At this time, Mystery came out of the bathroom, "Little girl, the bath water is ready, wash it first and then talk about other things." Oh, if you don't have a girl's clothes, you can use my clothes to get off. With that, Mystery slumped on the couch and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
"I'm done." The girl's voice made him move his eyes to the girl, and his eyes couldn't help but light up: the clean little girl can be said to be a natural beauty, with bewitching eyes, a beautiful nose, a cherry mouth that looks particularly cute, and an ill-fitting men's shirt makes the girl look extremely delicate.
"Girl, what's your name?"
"No name"
The "......" mystery knocked on the head, it was really difficult to do.
"You can think of one for me." The little girl said casually, but her eyes were full of anticipation.
Mystery has encountered its biggest crisis in 28 years - choosing a name.
"Cuihua, Xiaohong, snowy ......" Mystery saw the girl's darkening face, touched her head in embarrassment, and her eyes unconsciously glanced around.
"Don't, don't look at me like that, it's better to call me Jin. The sister-in-law, the splendid brocade. What do you think? Mystery looked at the little girl expectantly.
The girl thought about it for a long time, and finally nodded in agreement. The mystery breathed a sigh of relief, and the nightmare was over.
"Wu Jin, you can live in my house temporarily, everything is up to you to choose voluntarily, if you ......" The mystery was interrupted by Wu Jin before he finished speaking, "You...... Are you disgusted with me?" looked at the innocent eyes of Wu Jin, and the mystery was speechless for an instant. Girl, that's not how you set you along.
As if he knew what Mystery Xun was thinking, Wu Jin solemnly looked at Mystery Xun, "I, Wu Jin, only agree with you alone, I will do whatever you ask me to do." ”
"Okay, don't be so serious, girl, I'm still the same sentence, don't care about others, just be yourself. I'm hungry, I'll cook. ”
Half an hour later, Myxun sat at the dining table and cried silently. looked at the full banquet on the table, but none of the dishes were made by him. It must be that I am usually too lazy to cook and my hands are rusty, it must be.
To hide his embarrassment, he tasted it a little, and then ...... It's out of control. In the face of gastronomy and dignity, it is still gastronomy that matters! Looking at the way the mystery gobbled up, Wu Jin smiled happily.
After the meal, Mystery sighed: I have eaten instant noodles for so many years to wait for today's delicious meal, and it is worth it.
Mystery picked up the notebook left by his father and thought for a moment, then turned the first page.
On the first side is a painting of a creature with huge wings, more than a dozen hands, and legs like eagle's feet in the upper left corner of the sky. Miraculously, the creature doesn't have a head. The ground in the lower left corner is painted with the same kind of corpse as the one in the square during the day. Between them was a stone and a scepter.
Rummaging through the riddles and discovering the words in the notebook, he didn't recognize any of them. He threw away the notebook in frustration, stood up and said to Wu Jin in the kitchen, "I'm back to my room, your room is on the right, look for me if you have anything." Unoblivious, the open page of the notebook he threw on the table contained two lines: The blend of stone and staff is a necessary condition for the god of innovation.
