The sun has set, and the moon has already climbed into the sky. Liu Mengchao raised his head, looked at the lazy moonlight in the sky and shook his hand with a smile, which was regarded as a hello.

"It's a nice day, isn't it?"

Liu Mengchao said to Edward walking beside him. But Edward's face was full of unhappiness. He didn't like people who were taller than him, but Edward was always sad to find that everyone he knew was taller than him!

"The moon looks so high like this!"

Liu Mengchao said lazily, and Edward's face immediately twitched.

"You deliberately said the word high in front of me!" Edward's face was depressed, and he really couldn't find anything to say about Liu Mengchao. So Edward chose to be depressed and silent, silently following Liu Mengchao, and walking silently on the road.

"That's the Fifth Research Institute!"

Before he could see the door of the Fifth Research Institute, Alphonse's voice was already ringing behind Liu Mengchao, who looked in the direction of his steel arm, and his eyes couldn't help but narrow.

"Edward, I remember you said that the Fifth Research Institute is now abandoned, right?"

"Hmmm! Scrapped! ”

In other words...... The two guards standing at the door now are actually ...... Dummy? Liu Mengchao stretched out his hand and nodded at the two guards standing in the moonlight, and said to Edward with a smile.

Edward had a dull expression on his face, and just waved his hand at Liu Mengchao. He didn't believe that Liu Mengchao didn't see that the two guards there were really military police! Liu Mengchao is obviously looking for his own happiness by doing this! It's so hateful!

"yes, it's a dummy. Or do you just walk in? ”

Edward looked at Liu Mengchao with a twitch in his eyes and said with a provocative taste. His golden eyes seemed to sparkle under the moonlight, making Liu Mengchao even a little addicted for a while.

"Edward, has anyone told you that your eyes look a lot like a woman's eyes!"

"Absolutely not!"

Edward was about to jump, but Liu Mengchao had already taken a step ahead of Edward, and the whole person had already jumped. I saw him tiptoe forward quickly. A few ups and downs have already reached the edge of the wall. With a hard kick of his feet, Liu Mengchao's hands were already on the edge of the wall.

"You're a little slow!"

Liu Mengchao, who was standing on the wall, looked at the two Edward brothers and laughed.

"He's actually just a kid, isn't he?" Edward glanced at his brother, winked at where Liu Mengchao was, and reached out and nodded his head.

"Kind of like ......"

Alphonse nodded after Edward, and jumped onto the wall in three steps and two steps. I saw my younger brother, who was completely made of steel armor, sitting directly on the wall, leaning out of the wall, and handing his hand to Edward.

"Brother!"

"Okay!"

The two brothers' hands clasped together, and in the blink of an eye, they had climbed over the walls of the Fifth Research Institute.

"There's something like an abandoned person here and there?" As soon as Edward fell, he began to sneer. "I think it's like someone is cleaning it every day! There wasn't even a single leaf on the ground, so it didn't look like a ......."

"No, I should say that no matter how you look at it, it looks like a place with a big secret hidden." Liu Mengchao walked quickly in front of Edward and stopped his steps. I saw Liu Mengchao first squinting his eyes, turning around, and then laughing.

"Edward, if it were you, where would you choose to refine the Philosopher's Stone?"

"Me?" Listening to Liu Mengchao's words, Edward subconsciously rubbed under his nose. laughed, "The room in the middle is obviously sealed off, speaking of which, if anyone tells me." There are absolutely no secrets in this...... Would you believe it, Liu Mengchao? ”

As soon as Edward finished speaking, Liu Mengchao burst out laughing. How could you believe that there isn't a little bit of a secret in this, then again. The world itself relies on secrets to run smoothly, doesn't it?

Thinking of this, Liu Mengchao's own steps began to become brisk. I saw him pass directly through Edward's side in three or two steps, and stop at the completely sealed doorway.

"Can you use alchemy?"

Liu Mengchao turned his head to look at Edward and said.

"If you want the light of alchemy to shine directly into the eyes of the guards outside. I quite agree with Liu Mengchao, you use alchemy. Edward said with a grin, but Liu Mengchao didn't have much smile on his face.

"Since you can't use alchemy...... I had to use a little bit of stupidity. As he spoke, Liu Mengchao's left wrist was slightly raised, only to hear a soft sound, and a delicate hidden blade appeared under Liu Mengchao's wrist.

"Is that okay?"

Edward's jaw was about to fall to the ground. After all, Liu Mengchao's movements were too fast, not only too fast, but even like flowing water, just a few ups and downs, and he had already sawed the wooden planks used for blockade in front of him. What's even more terrifying is that when Liu Mengchao was opened, there wasn't even a trace of Yihao's voice coming out. In such a strange situation, Edward couldn't bear it anymore, and ran directly to Liu Mengchao's hand and raised Liu Mengchao's left hand.

"What exactly is the material inside this Hidden Blade? How can it be so sharp? ”

Edward's head was full of questions, and Liu Mengchao just touched his nose, and then smiled and didn't make any answers.

"Curiosity is a teenager with no future, or pay attention to the areas you should focus on!" Liu Mengchao said, patted Edward on the back, and the two walked in directly side by side, leaving Alphonse alone outside. On the one hand, they needed at least one person to be able to stay outside the research room to let off steam, and on the other hand, the hole that Liu Mengchao had just split with his Hidden Blade was actually not big, and it was just enough for Liu Mengchao and Edward to get into.

Tick...... Tick...... Tick......

Edward and Liu Mengchao walked side by side in the aisle of the Fifth Research Institute, and the roof above their heads seemed to have some problems, dripping water all the time, how to look at it made people feel unhappy.

"I should have brought an umbrella with me."

As he spoke, Edward raised his hand in frustration and squinted his eyes, "But I've heard that if you use an umbrella indoors, it's easy to grow taller. This is really a tangled thing, Liu Mengchao, what do you say? ”

"Me?"

Liu Mengchao looked up, only to hear a click, and the water droplets happened to fall on the tip of Liu Mengchao's nose, like a dragonfly landing on a lotus leaf, trembling in the breeze.

"I don't care, I'm tall enough anyway."

Liu Mengchao said with a grin.

"Just wait! In a few years, in a few years, when I get back to my body, I will definitely grow taller! Edward said with great certainty, and Liu Mengchao also nodded with great determination.

"As long as it's not as tall as me, I don't mind anything else."

Liu Mengchao said with a smile.

"Liu Mengchao! If you're an enemy, I'm going to beat you here to the point where you can't take care of yourself!" ”

"Thank you so much for your mercy."

Liu Mengchao's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly blocked in front of Edward. I saw Liu Mengchao's body low, looking like a tiger ready to go.

"What's the situation?"

Edward looked at Liu Mengchao's actions in front of him, and instantly lowered his body. Compared to Liu Mengchao, Edward has always felt that his actions are more agile, and even more suitable for fighting tall people.

"Shh......h

Liu Mengchao turned his head and shook his head at Edward, asking him not to speak. While Edward and Liu Mengchao were listening with bated breath, a voice came from inside the empty passage.

“４８…… Someone's coming! ”

"Yes, it's rare to have a guest come to the door, is it fun this time?"

"Don't expect too much. It looks like the elder brother came to explore with his younger brother, a blonde imp, and an adult in white. ”

"Oh? Then the man in white will be handed over to me, and you will take charge of the little man, right? Number 66? ”

The voice came intermittently from afar, until it drifted to Liu Mengchao and Edward's side. Edward subconsciously raised his head, but saw Liu Mengchao, who had been holding back a smile.

"Is this so funny!"

"No...... It's not funny at all, brother and brother ......" Liu Mengchao said as he touched Edward's head and laughed, "You are with me, you have really suffered a lot of grievances, little brother Edward!" ”

"Ahh

Edward jerked away Liu Mengchao's hand that was groaning on his head, and rushed forward at a trot. He ran a little fast, and Liu Mengchao couldn't even keep up with Edward.

"Even if someone pokes you in the sore spot, don't be so embarrassed...... After all, what about the facts. Liu Mengchao followed Edward's side, still unforgiving, "Having said that, Edward, you seem to be very concerned about what others say about your height." ”

"Don't mind at all!"

Edward stopped abruptly and said with his hands in a puff.

Liu Mengchao shook his head helplessly and walked in front of Edward. The corridor that had been dripping with water seemed to have come to an end, and Edward's footsteps rang behind Liu Mengchao as he squinted his eyes at the spacious room that had suddenly appeared in front of him.

"This is indeed it."

Edward poked his head out from behind Liu Mengchao and stared at the array of alchemy drawn by red dye on the ground.

"This is definitely the place to refine the Philosopher's Stone!" (To be continued......)
