Chapter 63: The Truth About the Lost Ingredients
Looking at the sky outside that was getting dark, Chu Fei hesitated, called Lin Meng back, and two figures, one big and one small, walked back to the restaurant.
It's too late outside, in the last days, darkness equals danger, and the efficiency of the night is low, and the remaining crystal nuclei can only be collected tomorrow morning.
The two returned to the store, and Chu Fei piled all the crystal nuclei collected for the day on the ground, and the crystal nuclei the size of soybeans were piled up into a small slope, all of which were from mutant rats without exception.
Chu Fei took the golden toad in front of the counter, and did not deliberately avoid Lin Meng, absorbing such a thing as energy, Chu Fei did not need to hide it.
Moreover, he also asked the system that this golden toad could not be taken out of the store, so it was impossible for others to use it.
Lin Meng stood quietly aside, her expression was a little dazed, Chu Fei glanced at her, she hadn't said a word since she had killed someone, and her mental state was not very good.
"Xiaomeng, are you okay? What do you think about your absent-mindedness? "The store absorbs energy, it doesn't need Chu Fei to control it, Chu Fei has nothing to do, and turns his head to chat with Lin Meng.
Seemingly taken aback by Chu Fei's words, Lin Meng came back to his senses, the expression on his face was a little frightened, his eyes looked directly at Chu Fei and said, "Brother Chu, I killed someone!" ”
Seeing that Lin Meng's state was a little wrong, Chu Fei frowned, when Lin Meng killed people, he didn't have this kind of demeanor, why is it so unbearable now?
"I know, Xiaomeng thinks...... Is it bad to kill someone? Chu Fei's voice was always calm, and there was no trace of waves on his face.
Lin Meng's expression was as if he was about to cry, and his eyes were a little red: "Brother Chu, I didn't kill me, I was like I couldn't control myself at that time!" ”
Hearing such an answer, Chu Fei's brows furrowed even deeper, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Lin Meng's face, trying to find some traces of disguise from it.
After a long time, Chu Fei sighed, he didn't find any problems from Lin Meng, either she acted very realistically, or what she said was the truth.
Without in-depth consideration in his heart, relatively speaking, Chu Fei believed that what Lin Meng said was true, and the way Lin Meng sacrificed his life to protect him before didn't seem to be intentional at all!
Reaching out and touching Lin Meng's head, Chu Fei comforted him: "Okay, don't think about it, maybe it's a problem with your ability, when you have the opportunity, I'll help you take a good look." ”
Lin Meng nodded, her eyes were still red, the first time she killed someone, it was a little difficult for her to accept her kindness, Chu Fei's words inexplicably made her feel a sense of peace of mind.
After a moment, the golden toad stopped absorbing, and the crystal nuclei on the ground had lost their luster, Chu Fei took the golden toad back to the counter, and looked at the computer, and the energy of the store was replenished to ninety percent.
The energy on hand is abundant, Chu Fei thought for a moment, and repaid the loan in the mall, anyway, there will be a harvest tomorrow, and he is not afraid that the restaurant will not be able to operate.
After all, borrowing is interested, although it is not much, but instead of wasting it in vain, it is better to save energy for your own use, and now the restaurant business is not good, you can save a little is a little.
Looking at Lin Meng beside him, Chu Fei thought about it in his heart, and exchanged it for the cheapest bed from the mall, as for the clothes, there was nothing he could do.
You can't let Lin Meng sleep on the table every day, anyway, it doesn't cost much energy, just exchange one, although the effect of this bed is a bit chicken, but there is always no problem with sleeping.
"You can sleep in the back kitchen in the future, you can use this bed first, it can make your sleep quality better," Chu Fei put the bed in the back kitchen, and did not explain the source to Lin Meng, but the function was still briefly explained.
Lin Meng's expression was a little surprised, and he temporarily walked out of the haze of murder, curiously groping for the bed in front of him.
After finishing all these things, Chu Fei smiled faintly, didn't care about Lin Meng, and returned to his bone bed to cultivate.
He can't sleep yet, and if the plan succeeds, there will be something in the restaurant in the evening.
Time passed slowly, Lin Meng had already fallen asleep, but Chu Fei had not entered a deep cultivation state, although his eyes were closed, but through the chandelier, he could see the scene in the restaurant clearly.
It's already late at night, it seems that that thing won't come tonight, Chu Fei sighed in his heart, and just wanted to sleep, when suddenly there was a fluctuation in the light curtain at the door of the restaurant.
Chu Fei's heart sank, and he was engrossed in observing the door, only to see a small black cat break in, and there was no sound between walking.
Should it come...... After all, it still came, Chu Fei sighed in his heart, he couldn't figure out why this cat could come in, obviously the store had been set up to be non-business.
This black cat is a bit special, its eyes are the same red as the mutant rats, and its appearance is much larger than that of normal domestic cats, and it seems that it has also been mutated.
But...... The black cat did not show the slightest aggressiveness, but tiptoed, looking like a thief, and the goal was very clear, and when he came in, he went straight to the back kitchen, and it was estimated that the meat lost last time was also stolen by it.
Chu Fei observed the black cat with great interest, and when it got closer, he suddenly opened his eyes, and his energy gathered into a big red hand, grabbing the black cat into front of him.
The black cat was frightened, with a strange meow, an anthropomorphic look of horror on its face, and desperately struggled in the palm of its energy hand.
However, how can it compete with second-order energy? Chu Fei and the black cat looked at each other, a hint of playfulness flashed in their eyes, this beast seemed to have a very high IQ.
As if knowing that it was useless to struggle, the black cat stopped moving, pulled its head down decadently, and hummed and chirped in its mouth.
Chu Fei was happy in his heart, this black cat was still a sperm, and he actually knew how to beg for mercy, which made Chu Fei dispel the idea of killing it, and wanted to see what else he had to discover.
Seeing that his begging for mercy had an effect, the black cat suddenly became excited, and gently scratched Chu Fei's arm with his paws, and continued to scream pitifully in his mouth.
The sharp claws scratched Chu Fei's skin, but he didn't feel any pain, but had some tickling pleasure, this cat was really a sperm, and he would actually be coquettish.
Since it was so non-aggressive, Chu Fei didn't bother to kill it, the important thing was that this cat made him very happy, which was a very rare thing.
Thinking of this, Chu Fei let go of the energy palm that was holding the black cat, and with a movement of his heart, the energy dissipated in the air, and the black cat suddenly lost its support, and its body fell to the ground.
In an instant, the black cat reacted, turned over beautifully in the air, landed firmly on the ground, glanced up at Chu Fei, lay his body on the ground, and lowered his head.
