43. Investigators

Lola, who was carrying the shopping bag, was very happy, and looked at the sandals placed in it and smiled for a long, long time. "Replace it?" I walked up to her and said. Lola nodded, took off the worn-out loafers on her feet, and took the sandals she had just bought out of the bag and replaced them......

Then, he kept shaking the shoes on his feet to show me. "Thanks, Chihiro!" Then, he shook my hand and thanked me. "You're welcome!" I shyly withdrew my hand and lowered my gaze. "It's just a pair of shoes, it's not a big deal—" We thanked the boss and left the shop.

Before you know it, you will pass through the evening shopping street, and when you turn left, you will see a residential area. Now there are more and more pedestrians on the road - fishermen who have just returned from fishing, and young people who are in a hurry to go to work.

Lola grabbed my sleeve as she clutched me; While looking around, the mood is very happy. A pair of eyes sparkling at everything around them. She lifted her feet high and every step was brisk. The sandals also make a "snapping" sound when they step on the ground.

We walked forward for a while, and I felt the cuffs being pulled. "What's wrong?" I stopped and asked her a little strangely. "I'm hungry." She blushed and bowed her head slightly. while peeking at me from the side; While whispering.

"That's right...... Why don't we go get something to eat? I muttered as I turned my head and asked Shion and Izumi. What about you? Both shook their heads. Let's forget it, we're not hungry anyway. ”

"Really?" Shion looked at me a little lost, "Don't worry about us, take Lola to eat something delicious, right?" He walked over and patted me lightly on the shoulder. Then she walked up to us again, then turned back and beckoned to Izumi—"That's it, the two of us and the teacher will go back first." After saying that, Izumi trotted to catch up with Shion and Xia Fan.

I smiled bitterly at the backs of the three of them as they faded away, and then went to a dim sum shop with Lola...... As a result, when I left there, the purse in the inside pocket of my clothes seemed to be even more deflated than it had just been. Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a little distressed.

But when I saw Lola smiling with satisfaction next to me, I instantly felt that it was worth it. After that, we walked a little further, and then the view gradually widened. Rows of apartments appear like terraced rice fields. The bustling shopping street has been left behind by us......

When she got home, Lola threw her shopping bag on the table in the living room and couldn't wait to shake her feet at Izumi and Shion, showing off the sandals she had just bought. "Envy, huh?" Once again, his face blossomed......

Sitting on the sofa holding a book and reading, Ziyuan's expression was suddenly disgusted. "I've seen it for a long time......" she said as she looked over the book, feeling both irritated and amused.

At this time, Xia Fan was in the kitchen and had just turned on the stove. He took out the dishes and chopsticks from the top cupboard. "Shion, can you help me bring the ingredients I bought today?" At the same time, he turned his head and shouted. "Okay." Shion, who had put down the book, folded the corner of the page she was reading, got up from the sofa, and walked towards the refrigerator in the corner.

He took out the bag of ingredients and walked past me to the kitchen. "Teacher, why don't I help you? —" Xia Fan turned his head in surprise. "Do you know how to cook?" Asked curiously.

"If it's just simpler, then I think it should be fine." As she spoke, Shion untied the bag and poured out the various ingredients contained inside—meat, onions, tomatoes, and cabbage all rushed out in an instant......

"Then you're welcome!" Xia Fan, who seemed to be relieved, said happily...... About half an hour later, we had a meal cooked by the two of us. "That's good, this omelet!"

Surprised, Izumi stretched out his chopsticks and put one in the bowl. "I agree, it tastes so good." At this time, I also stretched out my chopsticks and grabbed one. "Who did it?" Izumi put down the bowl and asked with some curiosity. "It can't be Aster, right?"

As soon as the words fell, Ziyuan glared at her unconvinced, "I did it, in fact, there is a method of adding soup." At this time, Xia Fan slowly raised his hand and said. Teacher, that's amazing! With that, Izumi stretched out his chopsticks again towards the remaining omelet. If you live alone, this is the foundation of the foundation. At this time, Xia Fan naturally added a sentence.

Unexpectedly, Izumi's expression suddenly became a little ugly—"I always feel sorry......" I couldn't help muttering. "I don't think it's a good idea, although it's the foundation of the foundation—" Xia Fan looked at her lost and smiled and comforted. Unexpectedly, this sentence made Hequan suffer a bigger blow......

Suddenly, I didn't know what kind of expression to put on when I was sitting next to her. "Teacher, don't you play tricks on her anymore? If this topic continues, Izumi will cry—"

Unexpectedly, before I finished my words, I was reached out and grabbed my arm and pinched it unceremoniously! "What are you doing!" "Just so you don't say anything superfluous!" Izumi turned his face to me, as if unwilling to speak.

"What! I'm obviously helping you......" At this point, I also said in a voice that overshadowed her, a little unconvinced. As a result, the two of us argued for a long time...... "Anyway, teacher, what do you think about the text message on Chihiro's phone?" ”

Eventually, after Izumi and Lola dissuaded us, we moved on to the next topic. "Do you think you believe it or not?" Xia Fan put a piece of braised pork into the bowl while facing Hequan. He asked with a puzzled expression. "If that's the case, I've already told you, right?"

"No, I mean, can you find a way to investigate." After a while, the sky outside the window was completely dark, and apart from the occasional faint sound of the waves, I must not even be able to see my feet clearly, right?

Izumi and Xia Fan were washing dishes in the kitchen and continuing the conversation they had just discussed. "Well, I was thinking about that. It's better to say, even if you don't say it, I have this plan. Xia Fan said as he turned his back to Hequan and put the washed dishes into the cabinet.

These words couldn't help but surprise us in the living room, and we all gathered in the kitchen. "Teacher, are you really going to ......?" "Of course, my research direction in college is astrophysics!" Xia Fan turned to look at my face and said very excitedly.

"Teacher, could it be that you are actually a very powerful person?"

My eyes widened in surprise and blinked several times. Xia Fan looked at me very surprised, and couldn't help but lower his eyes slightly and laugh a little shyly. "At least I don't think I'm great." Then, as she passed me, she told us.

"Of course, I didn't think that way in middle school—" she said in a steady, natural tone. "At that time, I quickly showed my reputation in the first year, and even pointed out the mistakes of my teachers many times. And gradually, this became commonplace. ”

After speaking, she took turns looking at us who were speechless, "What did you say?" It's embarrassing that I'm the only one talking from beginning to end......" Then, his eyes turned between us several times, and then with an expression as if nothing had happened, he urged us who were stunned in front of him with an expression of urgency.

But in the end, including me, I just laughed a few times as if I was coping. Then she pushed him out of the kitchen...... At this moment, Xia Fan felt that his face was obviously hot.

"I say I'm going to investigate, but I'm not enough—" she said, sitting on the sofa in the living room, with a serious expression. Then reach for the light switch on the wall. As another light on the ceiling flickered a few times, it gradually lit up...... After a while, the whole room became bright.

"So, come with me somewhere tomorrow? Chihiro. "In an instant, I raised my head in some surprise, and at that moment, my eyes met." Yes, but what to do? "I can't help but be a little curious." Go find your grandfather's legacy. ”

Xia Fan said a little coldly......
