Failed alchemist?

This is the reason that Xiuta added to Liu Mengchao, but no matter what he thinks, he feels that this atmosphere is a little weird.

"By the way, I heard from Second Lieutenant Shabu when he came before, what is the audit report of the national alchemist?" Liu Mengchao asked softly while eating a veal steak.

"The audit report of the national alchemist?"

Hearing Liu Mengchao's words, Xiutaga couldn't help but fall silent. No matter how you look at it, you can feel a little abnormal, right?

Liu Mengchao squinted his eyes, carefully searching the man's face for clues.

"The qualifications of a national alchemist are not for life." Repair. Taga sighed heavily as he spoke, "Every year, the national alchemist has to submit his own research report, after all, no matter what, the national alchemist is considered a public servant of the state, although there are usually no important constraints, but it is still necessary to let the country know the progress of his research." ”

What is the progress of the research? What is the progress of research on alchemy?

Liu Mengchao heard Xiutaga's words, and his eyebrows subconsciously raised. This so-called national alchemist is very similar to the scientific researchers in his own world, and he has to write research reports every year. I guess it's also for research funding, right?

Thinking of this, Liu Mengchao grinned at the corner of his mouth and laughed.

"Then again, I remember Roy. Mastan and I said that the state alchemist has a high stipend? ”

"Well...... Not only the housing subsidy, but also a lot of conveniences. None of these are the most important. The main thing is that if you become a national alchemist, you will receive a large amount of research funding every year. This money will allow us to live well. ”

Is it good to live?

Liu Mengchao looked around. Although the furnishings in the room are a bit old, the house is quite large. Presumably, if you want to live in a house like this, you need to spend a lot of money, right?

"And how about your research this year?"

"Ah...... This year's research report ...... This year's ...... "Repair. Taga's voice suddenly dimmed. He hesitated a little, searching for Liu Mengchao's face, trying to find a trace of contempt. It's just that Liu Mengchao no matter how you look at it. It's like a curious student who wants to know more about the world.

Never mind...... Even if you don't tell him the words, wait until tomorrow Roy. When someone from Mastan comes, they'll tell him too, right? Thinking of this, Xiu. Taga directly relaxed his vigilance, was silent for a while, and began to speak.

"Last year my research report was judged to be a failure...... Many people say that compared to the previous synthesizers who can speak human words, it is really unbearable. ”

"Oh? So this year you have to come up with something that can be seen? Otherwise the qualifications of the national alchemist will be revoked? ”

"That's it."

Repair. Taga said with a wry smile, a look of embarrassment on his face.

"For talented alchemists like Liu Mengchao and Edward, it shouldn't be difficult to report a report. But for an alchemist like me......"

"Daddy is the best!"

He hadn't waited for Shutaga to finish speaking. His daughter had already spoken first. The little girl, who was a little man, stood up like a brave warrior at this moment, and bravely looked at Liu Mengchao.

"That's right, that's right!"

Liu Mengchao laughed as he raised his hands high and made an expression of surrender.

"Nina's dad is the best!"

"That's it!" Nina heard Liu Mengchao's answer, and her face was full of smug and happy expressions. Looks like this little girl is so easy to satisfy.

Thinking of this, the corners of Liu Mengchao's mouth couldn't help but grin. She has a very cute looking daughter and a decent and well-paying job. No matter how you look at it...... This man doesn't seem to be as bad as he imagined......

So......

"It's a bit rude to say that, but Xiu. Mr. Tagga, your wife has been away from you for a while, hasn't she? ”

"Almost two years, right?"

Listen to Xiu. Taga's words, Liu Mengchao smiled and nodded.

Something interesting. This was the first thought that came to Liu Mengchao's mind. Especially with this man's words, he was obviously lying. But...... Why lie? Could it be that the wife eloped with someone else? But if that's the case, then he shouldn't have such an expression when he looks at his daughter, right?

No matter how you look at it, there are still some strange ......

Liu Mengchao's brows furrowed higher and higher. As soon as he finished eating, he went straight back to his room. Repair. Taga is a national alchemist no matter what, and his home is very spacious and generous. Let Liu Mengchao live in his home. I can't feel it at all.

The night was very quiet, Liu Mengchao lay quietly on the bed alone, squinting his eyes and recalling the scenes that happened today. Although he is not familiar with alchemy, Liu Mengchao can be said to be extremely familiar with a person's expression. In other words......

"This is called Xiu. The man of Taga must be hiding something. ”

Thinking of this, Liu Mengchao suddenly rolled over from the bed and knocked directly on Xiu. Taga's door. Although this old man seems a little useless, he really loves alchemy.

"Is there something wrong, Liu Mengchao?"

Looking at Liu Mengchao standing outside the door, Xiutaga asked suspiciously. The inside of his room was still brightly lit, and even Liu Mengchao could see the waste paper balls thrown everywhere in his room.

It seems that the audit report is embarrassing for this man. Today, his face kept showing anxious and jealous looks, and no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like he was doing anything.

Don't......

Is it because of his family?

A very strange thought suddenly appeared in Liu Mengchao's mind, no, it was not so much weird, but rather a disgusting thought. Liu Mengchao himself couldn't figure out how this idea appeared in his mind. But once it took root in his mind, Liu Mengchao found that it couldn't be eliminated no matter what.

"Repair. Mr. Tagga, I'm so sorry. It occurred to me that I had an appointment with Roy tonight. Colonel Mastan has something. So ......"

"So you're leaving now?"

Shutaga's face flashed with joy.

Such an expression is so obvious that Liu Mengchao can't even bear to expose it.

"Yes, it's going to go now. I heard that I found some records about my original. Sorry, because my memory is somewhat lost, so I guess these records are important when I come. ”

"Is that so......"

"Hmm." Liu Mengchao nodded slowly, "Then again, Nina should have been asleep, right?" ”

Liu Mengchao said as he turned his head to look at the other room. There were no lights there, and the little girl who had just been fighting herself at the dinner table had now fallen into a sweet sleep.

"Please take me to tell yourself that I will say goodbye today, and I hope Nina will not be angry with me tomorrow. Maybe I'll be back before she wakes up in the morning. ”

Liu Mengchao said as he walked towards Xiu. Taga smiled and nodded.

Before Liu Mengchao disappeared in front of Xiutaga, Liu Mengchao had already seen the relieved expression on this man's face. It looks like he's here, and he's really getting in the way of the country's alchemists?

Liu Mengchao thought about it, his eyes narrowed without a trace. He had vaguely thought of the possibility of that thing, and now it was time to verify.

Thinking of this, Liu Mengchao directly pushed open the door and walked out of Xiu. Taga's room.

Bang!

Suddenly there was thunder in the sky, and although it was still night, the whole sky was illuminated by lightning.

The glass window was opened a small slit, and Shutaga's eyes suddenly appeared behind the curtain. He watched coldly as Liu Mengchao's back gradually moved away from his home amid the lightning and thunder.

"Are you finally gone...... This weird man. ”

Repair. Taga let out a long breath, a smile back on his face. I saw him turn his head, stare at his discarded research reports, and finally take his own steps.

There was a muffled squeak and the door of my daughter's room was repaired. Taga pushed away.

"Daddy?"

The little girl groped her way up from the darkness and said in a daze as she rubbed her eyes.

"Well, Daddy is here."

Bang!

The thunder outside the window finally rang out one after another, and the continuous rain finally fell.

Liu Mengchao raised his head and stared at the overly gray sky.

He didn't go there, and he was still repairing. Taga's home. The figure that I saw from behind the curtain just now was just a projection created by Liu Mengchao's alchemy.

"Are you dirty, my God?" (To be continued......)
