331:Warmth in the palm of your hand (+2)
Once, (repair tomorrow, sorry dear, refill) he also watched the woman take out a crimson thing from the bag, and the other party complained: "Why is there only this flavor of instant noodles left, what I hate the most is this taste" while taking out a bowl and pouring boiling water, eating deliciously.
He carefully looked at the painting on the wrapping paper, the style of painting is realistic and lifelike, he has been to the human world in the early years, and he has never seen anything like it.
Sometimes the woman has nothing to do, and she will talk to him about some strange world. There are some things in it that he never thought of, bustling cities, high-rise buildings......
He would have wondered for a moment whether he was stunned, how could he believe such a thing, but he looked into the other person's eyes, and when she said this, her eyes were real, as if she was talking to him about something she was very familiar with.
Time flies quickly, he sometimes looks at her smile, and feels that time is just like this, and it is not bad to lie down and flow in the past, he never regrets saving her, and getting along with her is also a novel experience that he has never had. There are a lot of things that women know, and the words they say are always so peculiar.
Once he asked her name, and the other party's expression flanked for a moment, and he muttered, "...... My number is A666, isn't that an auspicious number? ”
"Huh?" He was a little stunned after hearing this, and he didn't react for a moment.
"Hey, what I'm telling you to do here, you don't understand, you call me Liuliu."
She just decided casually.
"Six-six......
He chewed on the name and thought it was a bit like a nickname. He called her like this, feeling a little too intimate, but the other party didn't seem to care, so he called her like this for many years.
Liuliu seems to be a picky eater, and often complains that the food in the demon world has no soul. He once heard the other party say this, so he joked: "Since it's so unpalatable, then you can do it yourself." ”
I thought she would refuse, but I didn't expect the other party to smile and say okay, and then began to study the ingredients of the demon world.
With so many great ideas in their heads, they soon found an opportunity to buy a shop that was about to close down and build the original restaurant.
She arranged everything in the restaurant by herself, and she never used the common dishes of the demon world, but hired a bunch of chefs to redevelop with them.
The robes of the waiters in the hotel are also designed by Liuliu, and she specially went to find some embroidery girls in the human world to make patterns, according to her, they not only have to innovate in the dishes, but also have a unique style in clothing.
Just as he was lamenting the other party's whimsy, Liuliu shook his head and said, "These are not invented and created by me - if I say that many people in our place used to wear them like this, would you believe it?" ”
He raised his eyebrows after hearing this, he had traveled all these years, but he had never seen a similar costume, so he took it as her joke.
Liuliu looked at the look in his eyes, of course he understood what he was thinking, so he also smiled and didn't explain anymore.
He has always been skeptical about everything these days, but he didn't expect that after it was built, the restaurant would be extremely popular. Later, their restaurant was extremely famous in the demon world, and even people from other cities came to visit them.
Just when he thought these days would pass peacefully......
The other party suddenly disappeared one early in the morning.
There were no parting words, no letters, a living person, and suddenly disappeared into his life.
……
Mu Jiujiu has been listening to him describe his past in detail, and when he heard "A666", his expression was a little subtle.
She thought of the business card that the little brother gave him in her hand when she came to the "Customized Life" store by chance—what was the number on it at that time?
s007?
These two people don't know each other, maybe they're still colleagues, Mu Jiujiu felt a little strange in her heart, but what she didn't notice was that Wen Yuan, who didn't say a word beside her, glanced at her after listening to the other party's words, and his eyes were a little strange.
At this point, the meal slowly came up.
Mu Jiujiu looked at the purple-clothed man opposite, the other party was still smiling, but the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes, and she even saw a little faint frustration in it.
She sighed in her heart, and couldn't help but comfort: "Maybe Liuliu went to another place and had a good life...... You don't have to worry about her. ”
The man's eyes moved slightly when he heard her words: "Actually, I also thought about what you said - after all, she has so many things in her head that I have never heard of, and I once suspected that she did not belong to this world......
I just have some regrets, but it's a pity why didn't she tell me before she left? We've been together for so long, maybe ...... It's already a friend. ”
There was one sentence he didn't say, in his heart, their relationship was much more than just friends. ”
"Maybe it's not that you don't tell it, but for some tricky reason...... So I can't get the news to you in time. Mu Jiujiu remembered the peculiarity of teleportation, and thought to himself, maybe there was something unknown in it.
"Perhaps." The man in purple didn't speak again, and said with a reluctant smile: "...... The dish is here, let's eat. ”
Mu Jiujiu nodded.
The food in front of her was full of flavor and aroma, and when she smelled it, she felt unbearable in her heart.
The main dish in the middle is a spirit fish, the meat is tender, and the key is that the soup gives people a sweet and sour feeling, like a tomato sauce.
The only fly in the ointment is that this spirit fish seems to have too many spines.
Just as she was thinking this, Wen Yuan beside her sandwiched a piece of meat in her bowl, all of which was fish meat with shaved fish bones.
Mu Jiujiu was stunned for a while, then turned his head to look at him.
The other party's long eyelashes covered the look in his eyes, and he didn't look at her.
A wonderful taste rose in her heart, like a candy gradually melting, and she glanced at him quietly, and gave him a little food, and then pretended to be nothing.
The man in purple in front of them didn't pay attention to the interaction on their side. He ate the dishes one bite at a time, did not speak again, and memories gradually came to his heart.
In front of her, these were developed by her and the chefs at the beginning, and after she left, the dishes in the restaurant were updated, but it always felt a little less new.
He still remembers that day, he got up early and started to talk about things in the restaurant.
Six-six never came out of the room.
At first, he thought she was lying in bed as usual, so he didn't call her. Later, it was not until noon that no one was seen, and the clues were discovered.
He knocked on the door, then went unanswered, and entered her room—everything was still the same as before, except for the small things that had been on the table that belonged to her.
At that moment, he did not feel sadness, but a feeling of dazedness.
He pushed open the window, and a thin snow slowly fell between the gray sky.
The temperature of the sun is as cold as the moonlight, and from here you can see a corner of this small city, the familiar voices of people, the familiar noise.
He was a little distracted.
It may have been an ordinary day, but from this day on, a person disappeared from his life.
In fact, it is strange to say that when she was there, he always disliked her for being noisy, but when he really left, he was a little unaccustomed to it.
But there is no way, the restaurant will continue to operate, he is still busy, perhaps using this busyness to fill the growing emptiness in his heart.
One day, months later, he entered her room again, and since she had gone, he had it sealed up and not allowed to be inhabited, and the table was already dusty.
He looked around him carefully, and a strange emotion suddenly permeated......
At that time, I suddenly understood what nostalgia was.
And.
Sadness.
It was the power in the heart, the feeling of being slowly being drained away.
……
"Someone, tea."
The man in purple broke free from his memories and beckoned.
A waiter came slowly, bringing a delicate teapot with a mist in between.
He picked up the thing, poured tea for the two of them, and said, "You can try this, which is also a major feature of our restaurant." ”
Mu Jiujiu reacted almost the moment he smelled the taste, and blurted out: "This is milk tea, right?" ”
"How do you know?" The man's expression was a little surprised.
"Ah...... I've heard others talk about it, maybe it's because you're better known for your specialties. Mu Jiujiu had no choice but to explain it this way.
Hearing this, the man nodded knowingly.
Wen Yuan glanced at Mu Jiujiu, his eyes flashing with thought.
After eating a meal for nearly an hour, they talked a lot with each other, probably some things were easier to talk to strangers, and the man then simply said it, pouring out all the emotions in his heart.
Mu Jiujiu watched the purple-robed brocade man get drunk, and in a daze, she heard what he said.
"Six-six...... You're so ruthless......"
Mu Jiujiu sighed in his heart, shook his head slightly, and beckoned the waiter to call someone to settle the bill, but learned that the man had ordered them not to take their money long ago.
He lay on the table, seemingly conscious, and muttered, "Are you done eating?" It was a great time to talk today...... I haven't been like this in a long time, and I'll send you ......"
After he said that, he got up, Mu Jiujiu looked at him staggering, the other party couldn't stand steadily, and even almost stumbled and fell to the ground, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "It's okay, the friendship is received, let's just go by ourselves." ”
Then he hurriedly called the waiter and motioned for the waiter to take him by the shoulders and send him back to the room.
……
After these were done, Mu Jiujiu originally wanted to go back to the inn with Wen Yuan, but Wen Yuan looked at a building outside the window and did not speak.
"What's wrong?" She looked puzzled and hurriedly leaned over to look.
At this time, night has gradually approached, and the small city may still be bustling, even when you go to the night market, it is surrounded by people.
However, the most conspicuous thing is the center in the distance, where stands a palace dotted with colorful illuminated orbs, which looks extremely dreamy, like a mirage.
"It's beautiful." Mu Jiujiu sighed, his eyes slightly away.
Under the illumination of the Illumination Orb, the surrounding light flowed, which reminded her of the night of their world, even in the middle of the night, there were many lights around the building, the only difference was that the stars would never have so many here.
Wen Yuan's eyes were faint, and there was no surprise in his eyes.
Even in the Fuma Realm, the Cloud Venerable Hall was like this, like a glowing dream city in the night sky, even bigger than the one in front of you.
He was staring at that place because he remembered something from earlier. It is said that the two demon candidates also lived here for the time being until the end of the general election.
This should be the residence of the Demon King of the previous realm.
That's what interests him, and there's something he wants to confirm.
However, there are certain dangers.
Thinking like this, Wen Yuan turned his head to Mu Jiujiu and said, "I have something to deal with, you go back to the inn and wait for me first." ”
"Where are you going?" Mu Jiujiu frowned slightly after hearing this.
Wen Yuan didn't want to tell her the truth, but after a moment of silence, he still said frankly: "I'll go to that palace to have a look, don't worry, I'll be back soon." ”
Mu Jiujiu looked at the other party's expression and said softly, "Okay." ”
The other party nodded at him, and jumped out of the window, shuttling between the houses with a sensitive body, and soon disappeared into the moonlight.
……
After he left, Mu Jiujiu went out from the main entrance and walked through the hustle and bustle of the crowd.
Even in this bustling city, there are many begging people around, and Mu Jiujiu originally wanted to help them at first, but later found that there were too many people and some things were really powerless, so he had to give up.
She remembered the mutated purple potato in her storage ring and shook her head slightly.
If this kind of thing is allowed to be promoted, I'm afraid this situation will be alleviated a lot, she has also seen the terrain of this demon world before, there are many abandoned and unused lands around, and the mutated purple potato does not have high environmental requirements, so she should be able to try.
Maybe the next time I see Lu Yining, I can talk to her about it.
Mu Jiujiu walked aimlessly in the crowd, and after visiting a few shops, he saw the palace in front of him flowing in the light.
I don't know what Wen Yuan did when he went in.
In fact, she can understand the other party's thoughts, after all, for the sake of her safety, and if she encounters Rong Xiu on this trip, I am afraid that there will be another fight.
But this feeling of hiding everything from her...... It's really unpleasant.
Mu Jiujiu looked outside the palace, and there were many guards guarding outside the gate, perhaps because the election was approaching, and the guards were extremely tight.
She looked up at the bright and extinguishing stars in the sky, and the corners of her mouth suddenly outlined a smile.
She snapped her fingers, and the Storm Dream suddenly appeared in her hand.
……
Outside the palace.
The guards were chatting with each other, and one of them yawned, and looked up in confusion to see an umbrella floating in the sky, and there seemed to be something hanging under it......
What's that?
He rubbed his eyes, looked up again and saw that the thing was gone.
"Didn't you see it just now - there seems to be an umbrella in the sky?"
"What umbrella? I read it wrong. One of them patted him on the shoulder and said, "Haven't you had a lot of drinks tonight?" ”
"I didn't drink ......," the man muttered.
"Okay, soon the election of the demon world will be over, how many buddies will go and relax?"
One of the guards winked his eyebrows around, and everyone laughed meaningfully.
……
Mu Jiujiu shuttles between them, looking at the surrounding environment.
The interior of this palace is also very gorgeously decorated, and the occasional waiter with a plate passing by has been dodged by her extremely sensitive figure.
She quietly sneaked into a room, the surrounding decoration was luxurious, this looked like it should be a woman's room, and the identity of the other party was more precious, Mu Jiujiu was thinking about it, but there was a sound of conversation in his ears.
She was shocked and quickly looked around - there didn't seem to be any hiding place nearby, only ......
Mu Jiujiu went immediately
