It's really an inexplicable fate.

The last time he first came to Carlos, when Xia Chen went to visit Dr. Bratano with Dr. Ohki's letter, he was also tracked by the Flash Team.

The second time he came to Carlos, he saw these people again.

But compared with the scruples of the last time, the current Xia Chen stands out as fearless.

I've come here to trouble Ipeltar, and I'm afraid of your little Flashing Team?

As for the one who once promised to join the Flash Flame Team or something, it doesn't matter if he was controlled by others at the beginning, he had to be false and wronged, and Xia Chen was not afraid of tearing his face with Vladali at this time.

Slowly pacing all the way to the Burratano Institute, it was the long-tailed fire fox that opened the door to him, but I don't know if it was the one from two years ago.

Although he did not make an appointment in advance, with Xia Chen's current "status in the rivers and lakes" of the elven research community, Dr. Burratano immediately put down his research and ran over.

"Long time no see, Dr. Xia Chen."

I don't know why, Xia Chen obviously doesn't have a serious doctorate title, and these people who are engaged in research like to call him a doctor.

"In the past two years, I have been able to hear your news every once in a while! The impact of each of your discoveries on the elven world is enormous, simply contemporary"

Dr. Burratano originally wanted to say that the contemporary Yukinari Oki was born, but when he thought that Dr. Oki was still alive and well, it was naturally inappropriate to say so.

Xia Chen was modest, "Passing awards is just a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning." ”

Burratano was emotional, "You're so modest, the super-evolution alone is enough for me to study it for another ten years!" ”

Xia Chen was slightly stunned, "Uh, did you really study super evolution?" ”

In the previous life games and anime, Brasano's main achievement was to study hyperevolution, Xia Chen thought that after the timeline of this world changed, Carlos's Dr. Bratano should not study it anymore, but he didn't expect him to go down the old path.

Xia Chen's strange tone made Burratano a little puzzled, "It's research, because we only discovered later that the mineral deposit called Keystone was also excavated in the Carlos area." ”

"I see."

Xia Chen nodded thoughtfully.

It seems that no matter how the gears of fate turn, some things will not change.

…………

"Speaking of which, what is Dr. Xia Chen going to do when Carlos comes back this time, is he traveling?"

After the pleasantries, Dr. Burratano asked.

Everyone is an adult, and he also knows that if it's okay, Xia Chen won't come to visit, so he just asked directly.

Xia Chen teased a few hali chestnuts in the institute and replied, "Well, there is something I want to ask you, that is, do you know where Ipeltar is?" ”

Burratano: "Huh? ”

Would you like to hear what you're talking about?

Ipeltar?

What are you doing with that Grim Reaper?

Xia Chen thought that the meaning of the "ah" that Burratano wanted to express was unclear, and added: "Or if there is whereabouts information, it's okay, I'll just go find it myself." ”

Burratano: "."

"May I ask you what you're looking for it?"

He finally couldn't help but be curious, and asked.

"Revenge."

Xia Chen said as a matter of course: "It bullied me so much back then, I can't talk to it about the past." ”

Burratano was speechless again.

can say the words of finding a legendary elf to take revenge, there should be only Xia Chen in this world, right?

Retracting his thoughts, Burratano shook his head, "I've been studying hyperevolution for most of the year, so I don't know, but I can help you ask people from Carlos' other institutes." ”

"Then thank you, Dr. Brattano."

After thanking him, Xia Chen suddenly asked, "By the way, have you had any contact with Vladali recently?" ”

While he wasn't worried about Vladali or the Flashes going against him, he didn't mind asking him about him in advance.

After all, this is also a guy whose ambition is not inferior to Sakaki, so it should be considered a rainy day to inquire.

"Yes," said Brattano, "we have been friends for many years, and his Vladali Institute and I have worked together very deeply. ”

He was unaware of the conspiracy of Vladali and his Flashfire Team hidden in the shadows.

The lion's external image is that of an excellent researcher, entrepreneur and philanthropist, and there is naturally no need to hide his dealings with him.

"I remember the last time you met Carlos before you left him, do you want me to let him come over and we can talk for another night?"

Xia Chen hurriedly refused, "Forget it, next time, I have other things to do in a while." ”

The appointment is fake, and it is true that I don't want to meet this black-hearted lion head.

Burratano believed it and shrugged his shoulders regretfully.

After the matter was done, Xia Chen got up and said goodbye, "Then this matter will be entrusted to you, I will be in Miare City for the next few days to keep in touch." ”

"No problem, I'll let you know if there's news."

…………

It was nearly dusk when Xia Chen left the Burratano Institute.

It's not that we've been talking about it for long, it's not too early when we arrive in Miare.

Still checking in at the hotel next to the Prism Tower in the city center, when entering the hotel lobby, Xia Chen found an acquaintance.

To be precise, it's an acquaintance's poster -

[Champion Carluni's two-and-a-half-year new work "My Father Martial Arts Bear Master" publicity conference! ] ]

Big star Carluni's new movie, is she still returning to the big screen after successfully reaching the top spot?

Xia Chen remembered that when they first met more than two years ago, Karuni resolutely retired and went to the mountains alone to experience in order to achieve a higher achievement as a trainer.

Now she's a champion.

Xia Chen was quite emotional, so he thought about going to the press conference to have a good time.

However, there are too many fans of the actress champion, and at a glance, he can only see dense crowds of people's heads.

After thinking about it, I still didn't squeeze through.

The lonely back is particularly conspicuous in the crowd of people crowding forward.

Shanaiduo, who was standing next to Carluni and attending the film promotion conference together, suddenly felt something, stared deeply at Xia Chen's departing back, and then leaned into the ear of the particularly dazzling big star and said something.

A hint of surprise flashed in Karuni's eyes, and her red lips opened slightly.

"He's coming?"

It's night.

At the beginning of the day, the bustling city of Miare is lit up with lights, and the night scene is moving.

"Speaking of which, it seems to be the same room last time?"

Xia Chen looked at the dreamy halo of the prismatic tower outside the window, and always felt that this scenery seemed familiar.

"Woohoo."

Menas nodded affirmatively, he found a crack in a stone at the bottom of the aquarium.

It was left by the water cannon that he had been practicing hard all the time when he came over, but he didn't expect to see it again this time.

However, if he wants to practice now, Xia Chen may have to consider compensation.

The other elves didn't have much nostalgia, they weren't on the team yet.

Even Senbu and Shanado are still in their initial form.

Xia Chen was a little distracted by the revisit of the place, when suddenly, the voice of Lothom's mobile phone rang.

"Text, Loto! Came to text Loto! ”

"What kind of text?"

Xia Chen didn't bother to get his mobile phone, so he simply let Lothom say it himself.

Compared with electronic ghosts, the so-called smartphones invented by humans do not bear the name of "smart" at all.

Lothom is as good as a stream: "Okay Lotto! The message is [I'm so hungry] by Karuni. ”

Carluni?

Xia Chen took off the mobile phone floating in the air in surprise, and sure enough, it was a text message from Carluni.

Did she know she was coming to Carlos?

Xia Chen, who thought that the other party was participating in the event and did not bother, immediately called back Carluni's phone.

After two beeps, Karuni's pleasant voice came from the other end, "Come to Carlos and don't say a word to me, if it weren't for Shanaiduo seeing you, I wouldn't know." ”

The tone is languid and elegant.

Xia Chen was helpless, "You don't know how many people there were at that time, so do you want to have a meal together?" ”

Carluni was not polite at all, "Well, eating out is easy to be photographed by the paparazzi, come to my house." ”

Xia Chen: "."

What kind of logic is this?

Wouldn't it be worse to get someone to photograph me going to your house!

"The address has been sent, hurry up, the Wrestling Eagle Man should be back from grocery shopping soon."

Xia Chen understood.

I see, this woman is hungry for my cooking.

…………

"Well, that's what it tastes like."

At the dinner table, Karuni's face was full of satisfied happiness, and her red lips slightly stained with oil were delicate.

This expression is rarely seen on the dignified and elegant face of [Carlos's Diamond].

Xia Chen was helpless, "You are a big star, at least pay attention to expression management." ”

I don't know, I thought I was drugged in the dish.

"What does it matter in your own home."

Carluni said it didn't matter.

Stripped of his elegant coat, the famous movie star has a much more easy-going personality than it seems.

Not to mention, this contrast made Xia Chen feel a little happy inexplicably.

And Shanaiduo, who was sitting next to her, was much more reserved, condensed an energy water mass in her hand and wiped her mouth elegantly, and then nodded to Xia Chen very ladylikely.

"Saina~(Thank you for your hospitality~)"

"Scared!"

The wrestling eagleman on the other side also put down the bowl or basin in his hand that was bigger than his body, and thanked him heroically.

As for the other elves of Carluni

Xia Chen turned his head to look at the ground next to the dining table, the ice and snow dragon, the monster jaw dragon, and the sticky beauty dragon, all of them could only sit on the ground and eat because they were too big.

However, they are not lonely, and most of Xia Chen's elves can't make it to the table, so they accompany them below.

"But it's surprising that your home is so small."

Xia Chen looked at the two hundred square meters of the surrounding flat floor and commented sharply.

Although this sounds a bit ordinary, two hundred hundred flat is a bit small for a top trainer.

After all, the size of these dragon elves alone is enough to take up space, let alone build a place like a training room.

Carluni explained: "I don't live here often, mainly because there are more paparazzi squatting near my house, which is not very convenient. ”

"Got it, the star's troubles."

Xia Chen boasted: "If you own a small island like me, you don't have to worry about this kind of problem. ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart.

Karuni groaned slightly and nodded, "Good idea, I'll buy an island in a few days." ”

Xia Chen: "."

How can this tone be as casual as going out to buy a dress or a pair of shoes?

It's you, Karuni.

…………

"So, you're here for Ipeltar?!"

After learning of Xia Chen's intention to come this time, Carluni was unsurprisingly shocked.

Xia Chen said modestly: "It's not deliberate, it's mainly to take the elves out for a walk, and if you meet Impertal, go and play with it." ”

After a pause, he asked again: "So please tell me in time if there is news of Ipeltar, please." ”

Carluni: "."

You also said you didn't come here to find it!

After calming down, Karuni actually understands Xia Chen's mentality.

After all, they were hunted down by Ipeltar at the time, although it was all over when they met again.

But she can fully imagine what kind of physical and mental oppression Ipeltar caused to Xia Chen at that time, and naturally understands Xia Chen's current state of mind-

Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the poor youth!

It doesn't have to be that way, but that's certainly what it means.

"Speaking of which, I've really heard a little bit about the traces of Ipeltar some time ago, but it's just hearsay."

Karuni suddenly remembered something, and recalled: "I heard about it two months ago when I went to Callas Mountain to make a movie, and the villagers who lived at the foot of the mountain said that every once in a while, there would be a loud sound in the mountain that could reach the bottom of the mountain, and at the same time there would be a very terrifying atmosphere. ”

Xia Chen nodded thoughtfully, "Whoever can make such a big fuss, even if it is not Impertal, it will definitely not be an ordinary existence." ”

The place, called Mount Callas, is worth exploring.

After a busy day, he finally had a valuable clue, and Xia Chen was in a good mood.

Looking at the food on the table that was almost wiped out, he asked, "So fast, do you want to eat, I'll make some more?" ”

Since this big star is good at this, Xia Chen decided to repay Carluni for her suggestion.

Who knew that Carluni, who seemed to be in a good mood one second, turned cloudy in the next second.

"I won't eat it."

She put down her chopsticks and got up, swaying her beautiful figure under her home clothes and walked to the living room.

Xia Chen looked confused, not thinking about how he suddenly offended her.

Carluni's Shanado sighed, "Saina—(Xia Chenjun, your understanding of a girl's mind is far less than one-tenth of your cooking skills.) ）”

Xia Chen's side of Shanaiduo also nodded approvingly, then got up and followed behind Shanaiduo's sister, chatting about something, and left the restaurant.

"Am I a straight man of steel?"

Xia Chen looked at the other elves at the table in an incredulous tone.

Doronbaruto stared back at his wise mung bean eyes, "Ruto? (I'm a single dog, you ask me?) ）”

After saying that, he continued to bury his head in cooking.

Saifu raised his trademark sunny smile, "Huh? (What happened to steel?) Isn't steel a compliment? Iron will, iron ambition, or something)"

This steel genie is at odds with the derogatory definition of the word steel.

Xianbu looked at this family and couldn't help but sigh.

Sure enough, these guys' emotional intelligence is all with Xia Chen
