Chapter 417: Eating Hot Pot
After the small talk, it's time to get down to business.
Tong Xiaolai said to the three of them: "How did I explain your affairs, do you have any clues?" ”
The fat man complained: "Big brother, let's see if we can find everyone's clues, but it's not easy to find." There was no direction, no clues, and it was just like a headless fly, and nothing was found. ”
"Okay, I got it." Tong Xiaolai said that he understood, "Thank you for your hard work, this matter is indeed not so simple. ”
"I don't think it's possible to find it." Xiao Jin might as well say it bluntly, after all, robots are not so easy to deal with.
Indeed, Tong Xiaolai understands. "I don't think they're on Earth anymore, so it's unlikely they'll be found."
"yes, there are so many of them, after all." The old man thinks so too.
"Then that's a problem, if that's the case. The universe is so big, how can it be easily encountered? Even if you have wings, you can't fly, let alone have wings yet. "Tong Xiaolai is worried.
"The robot won't say, and we can't find it, what can we do? Nearly two-thirds of the planet was taken away. The old man said.
"yes, what if they don't come back? What about our parents, our families...... Alas...... "Xiao Jin doesn't want to talk anymore."
"Alas......" everyone encountered problems again, and they were all worried......
But I can only worry......
Because of the final struggle, the Great Law of Scattering Money, has not been able to reverse the situation, and in fact it is impossible to reverse the situation, most people do not accept robots.
So, in the past few days, the robots have begun to withdraw people in a big way, and the replacements sent to spend time with people day and night, live with people, and collect love and affection data, have been withdrawn one after another.
So, Tong Xiaolai and Xia Yuxuan walked on the street and saw such a scene, the street was empty, and only for a while, only occasionally a car drove by.
Falling leaves fell from the two of them, and the fallen leaves and money swept in the wind on the ground. An earth covered in money, a city with only money left.
The two were silent on this familiar and unfamiliar street, but they understood each other until they went farther and farther, farther and farther, and disappeared together at the end of the street......
At night, the lights are lit, and on the rooftop, friends gather together. Xia Yuxuan, Mu Lingyi, Little Lady, Ban Mi, and the three brothers all came and gathered on the rooftop of Tong Xiaolai's house to have a hot pot dinner. Everyone sat around the boiler and enjoyed this lively feast together.
"Good stuff is coming!"
"It's served!"
Tong Xiaolai and Xia Yuxuan respectively brought a large plate of various meats, lettuce and other vegetables, as well as other dishes, fruits, desserts, snacks and drinks were also on the field one after another, in short, there were all kinds of delicious food.
"Oh~~Oh~~~" The people sitting next to him applauded and coaxed, and their saliva flowed out.
Boiling chili oil, scorching boilers, and soaring enthusiasm, the scene is in full swing.
Whether it's in the middle of the boiler or next to everyone, delicious food and drink are available everywhere and within reach.
Everyone picks their favorite, sandwiches it vigorously, makes it vigorously, and soaks all kinds of delicious foods in the middle of the piping hot chili oil, and then picks it up with the meat and soup, and finally puts the hot and piping hot meat slices in their mouths, and chews them deliciously, "Hmm~" is so delicious that I don't want it, and I feel that the whole person is melting. "Whoosh! Whoosh...... "Everyone eats and drinks in large gulps, how to be happy, how to be happy; Chatting while eating, eating lively, chatting lively, all of them are their own people, and everyone is not polite at all.
"Come on! Cheers!!! Everyone got up, some held the dishes and chopsticks, some put down the dishes and chopsticks, and raised their favorite drinks with the other hand, "......bang bang bang" toast, "ah-" and drink happily.
"Come on! Eat, eat, eat!! Today is to have a good time, a happy picture!! Tong Xiaolai said enthusiastically.
For a while, the scene was in full swing, in full swing, everyone released themselves to their heart's content, although they were sweating, although their foreheads were full of sweat beads, it was also happy sweat!
However, in the midst of the excitement, there is a small problem. It's unremarkable, but it's not so easy to ignore.
In the crowd of people sitting, there is an extra vacant stool that seems to be for someone.
In fact, many people have seen it and thought that it was just put there, and it was not a big deal.
However, Xiao Jin found that he had been there for a while, and asked first, "Tong Xiaolai, why is there an extra position here, are you the wrong person?" ”
Tong Xiaolai said: "Not much, this is specially prepared for him." In fact, today I invite you not only to come, but also to invite someone. ”
"Who?" Little Golden Road. And the people were puzzled.
"You'll find out in a moment." Tong Xiaolai didn't say anything for a while, then raised the drink and said to everyone, "Don't worry about it yet, we'll eat ours!" Here, cheers! ”
"Hehehe!" Everyone raised their toasts again, "Click! "Clink glasses, drink happily, and continue to be merry.
In other words, at this critical time, why didn't Tong Xiaolai go to find someone, but still have the heart to play hot pot here?
In fact, Tong Xiaolai played this hot pot just to find someone. Because he knows that if you look for it, you won't find it. They have been looking for many days, and it can be said that Tong Xiaolai has been looking for them since the day they left, but there has been no clue, so it is really impossible to find them casually. If they don't let go for a day, Tong Xiaolai won't be able to find them for a day.
However, Tong Xiaolai believes that in addition to the robot, there is another person who knows about this matter.
Tong Xiaolai held this dinner, first, to make everyone lively; Second, it is to get people back.
Tong Xiaolai had already invited him so obviously, he didn't believe that he wouldn't come.
"Come on, come on, hot pot walk, it's not enough to add more! You're welcome! Oh~~"Tong Xiaolai just wants to be as lively as possible."
"Oh hoo ~ here it is! Here it comes!! Everyone boiled and said, add as much as you want, eat as much as you like, talk as much as you want, and play as much as you like. Eat to your heart's content, have fun.
However, during this period, I don't know when, everyone got carried away in all kinds of hilarity and excitement, and didn't notice it......
Among the eight people who were eating hot pot together, eight people became nine pairs of chopsticks, and one more pair of chopsticks was added.
No one noticed that there was a quiet addition of someone in that position, eating with everyone as if nothing had happened.
Everyone is lively, he eats his, you are not welcome, and he is not public, and he unconsciously blends into everyone.
Only Tong Xiaolai, who often paid attention to that location, was the first to find out.
"Heh~" When Tong Xiaolai saw him, he also smiled.
Until Tong Xiaolai stood up with the drink and said to everyone: "Come on, come on, everyone, everyone!" Come! Let's toast Brother Cat together! It wasn't until Tong Xiaolai called everyone that everyone found that there was an "assassin" sitting next to him, dressed in black, eating hot pot unceremoniously, in the position that Tong Xiaolai had specially vacated.
But when he saw his face, he had a large black hat with a cloak on his head, and a mask on his face, but his mask did not prevent him from eating. The mask on his face is like a flexible mask, shrinking with the corners of his mouth.
Everyone was a little stunned when they saw him for the first time, and they jumped up and down in the dark: he is here, he is the mysterious person that Tong Xiaolai said!
Even Tong Xiaolai was so respectful, and everyone rose up to respect him: "Welcome!" Welcome! Welcome! Put out the welcome mat! Come, everyone, let's pay tribute to our cat brother! ”
In the face of everyone's enthusiasm, the mysterious man did not put on a show, and responded to everyone humbly: "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" "Pick up the cup and clink glasses with everyone.
"Come on! Cheers!!! "Click, click, click!" Touched each other all over again. After a dry drink, everyone became familiar at once.
Then we sat down, and everyone continued to be lively again.
"Xianggong, who is he?" The little lady sitting next to Xiao Jin asked. It was the first time she had seen this mysterious person, and it was really strange and mysterious.
"Well......" Seeing that Xiao Jin didn't know what to say, he hesitated for a while and just said, "In short, he is a very powerful person here, better than all of us, even our eldest brother Tong Xiaolai has to respect him five points." ”
"Ah, that's amazing!" Only then did the little lady realize that it was no wonder that everyone respected him so much.
"Brother Cat, you're here, don't you know, these little machines are too bullying, they are almost going to become immortals! You take care of them. "Tong Xiaolai's grievance.
"Hehehehe." The mystery man smiled wryly.
"Eh, what do you mean by laughing?" Tong Xiaolai said.
"Huh. Nothing, nothing. "Mysterious. Then eat hot pot as if nothing happened.
Tong Xiaolai didn't care. Then he asked about what he was concerned about and said, "Brother Cat, there has been something that has been bothering me recently. ”
