『Episode 25』

"Hah...... Ha ...... "On the street, the man named Chen Zhanlin was holding the gift box with his palms tight, and he was running along the sidewalk of the street in the wind.

His face was sweating profusely as he ran away. Seeing that familiar corner in front of you indicates that you are about to reach your destination.

However, the shadow of the corner became blurry from his vision, and the feeling of a spinning position hit his face. Let him run dizzily and unscrupulously.

"Yo."

Suddenly, Chen Zhanlin hurriedly stepped forward and planted a few more steps before stopping. Tired hands cover knees; And the other hand is holding the heart socket tightly.

He gasped for air from his lungs, his legs trembled and he almost fell to his knees. Turning his head, he saw the familiar figure leaning against the wall, but he couldn't be happy in his heart.

"Where have you been?" Dou Dong's eyes revealed an inexplicable sense of confidence. He crossed his arms and looked at the long street, and asked Chen Zhanlin, who was standing half-propped up next to him.

"Titicaca, Gong, Garden."

After Chen Zhanlin exhaled, he simply sat down on the ground, thus relieving the pressure caused by the back of his calf. His voice was low and hoarse, and he sounded uncomfortable.

"Why don't you listen to Chen Xin?" Dou Dong sighed helplessly, he let go of the arm he was holding, walked to Chen Zhanlin, squatted down and looked at it.

"Titicaca, Titicaca...... Someone wants to catch Ning Xue......" Chen Zhanlin had a bitter face, he whimpered, as if he wanted to spit out something.

"What did you say?" Dou Dong asked him quickly. He blinked, his pupils glowing with a constricted glow.

"There are a lot of xenomorphs, eh, Titicaca......"

"Hey, slow down."

"There was a woman in a black robe, dressed like an old goblin. She brought several xenoinfected people to intercept me and Xia Ningxue, but fortunately, I ...... I, Titicaca......"

"Let you speak slowly," Dou Dongbai glanced at him, and the action was to reach out and hold the back of his head, so that he could ease up. And he muttered, "Hurry up, right?" Yes? ”

"You guy, Titicaca......" Chen Zhanlin pressed his head down and spat out of his mouth.

"Okay, let's go back to Wuxiu Restaurant with me first. By the way, I would like to introduce you to two new friends. ”

Dou Dong laughed suspiciously, patted him on the shoulder, and twisted his face into the street, appearing to be inattentive when he spoke.

"Huh?"

Wuxiu Restaurant.

There are two mysterious customers in the store, and the customers are the same ones who had met Dou Dong on the street, Garat and Rand.

At this time, they sat quietly at a table by the window, savoring the unique taste of our restaurant's roasted sweet potatoes, and praised it.

In the back kitchen, Chen Xinzheng, who was depressed, was absentmindedly cutting the celery root, and then poured the cut celery root into the grid-like vegetable basket along the kitchen knife.

Hiding the sadness from her face, she turned on the faucet and began to wash the basket of celery. Although even celery is now synthetic, it is gratifying to find the shadow of the survival of this vegetable in the past (1)......

"Boss, do you have any spicy water?" When Rand heard Garrat's command, he immediately raised his left hand habitually, and then shouted to the window in the back kitchen.

"What, I'm not the boss lady?" Chen Xin quickly tightened her brows, she snorted twice, and slapped the vegetable basket on the cutting board that had not yet finished dripping.

Luckily, the owner, Wayne, is not in the store now (2).

"Yes! Please wait a moment. ”

At this moment, the brown front door of the restaurant was gently pushed open. Garrat turned his head to look back smartly, and Rand also explored his head slightly in the direction of the door.

"Come in." Dou Dong stepped forward with one leg first, and then turned around and pulled Chen Zhanlin, who looked very depressed, to the house. "What's the matter, what are you hesitating about?"

Hearing the voice, Chen Xin turned around with a sigh of relief and looked out through the frame.

Following the direction she was looking at, she could just see Chen Zhanlin standing at the door with his head down and not daring to come in, and Dou Dong who kept pushing him in on the side.

"Funny Dong, you let him get in and talk to me by himself!"

"My name is Dou Dong, not Teasing Dong." Dou Dong heard that something was wrong, his governor had nothing to do with him, and if he was blindly involved, he would definitely be ......

"Zhanlin, be careful."

He had no choice but to pat Chen Zhanlin on the shoulder, and then took the lead in and found an empty seat to sit down softly. For a while, I had to leave the things that Garrat and Rand introduced to Chen Zhanlin to know about them for the time being.

When Garrat saw this, he buzzed his nose and wings, and glanced at Dou Dong to inquire about the situation.

But Dou Dong didn't give him a response, but grabbed the hot water cup and took a sip of hot water, pretending to be a person who had nothing to do.

Chen Xin pushed the door out of the back kitchen, and she stood in the center of the restaurant wearing an apron. Her face was slightly flushed from the air.

"You don't want to do it, do you?"

The crowd was silent.

Chen Xin gritted her teeth when she said this, she opened her lips slightly, and she trembled with sadness. Once, how much she cared about Chen Zhanlin as a person, and now how much she hates him.

"Yes, I'm sorry, Chen Xin. There is a sense of alienity......" Chen Zhanlin muttered, he lowered his head and raised his legs to walk in.

"You've let me down again and again, and you're still saying I'm sorry? Excuse me? I thank you for being worthy of yourself! Tears welled up.

"......" Chen Xin's words were like a sharp and cold short dagger, stabbing into his heart fiercely, and the more he fell, the more painful it became.

Garrat and Rand looked at Chen Zhanlin quietly, and then turned their eyes to Chen Xin, who was trembling with anger. The restaurant was quiet for a while, but the atmosphere was so oppressive that people didn't dare to take a breath.

Chen Zhanlin raised his right palm tremblingly slightly, and handed the gift box made of pastel-colored paper that he had been holding in his palm to Chen Xin.

"I'm sorry, Chen Xin. This one for ......."

"Take it away!" At the moment when everyone thought that things could be resolved, Chen Xin angrily threw up his arm and smashed Chen Zhanlin's palm open, causing the pink box to fall to the ground.

With a "snap", I saw a round crystal ball fall off from it and lie quietly under the corner of Doudong's chair, shining with a transparent luster.

Garrat's face instantly became difficult to look at, and his temper just wanted to go up to persuade the two, but he was shocked back by Dou Dong's gaze at this time.

Helpless, he had to take Rand out for the time being.

After Dou Dong saw them get up and leave in the unknown frame, he also stood up and turned to walk forward.

Take a closer look at the crystal bead: two small snowmen are fixed in the transparent beads, and there are fake snowflakes falling inside due to the impact. It's beautiful, and all of a sudden it's humble.
