Chapter 37: Citrus and True Identity

Afternoon

Chen Sheng walked in from the intersection with medicinal herbs in his left hand and some health care products in his right hand.

Xu Ziwen gave him a lot of things two days ago, and Chen Sheng kept thinking about returning the gift.

happened to pass by a pharmacy today, and he thought that Xu Ziwen would attend classes during the day, tutor in the afternoon, and sweep graves at night, so he bought some health products for the other party to make up for his body.

As he walked, Chen Sheng summoned out the panel.

After an afternoon of workout, his attributes have grown again.

Strength increased by 0.12

Agility increased by 0.6

The maximum increase in constitution stats is 0.24

According to Chen Sheng's estimate, if you want to break through the dark energy, you need strength and physique to reach 3.

At this rate, in two days at most, he will be able to successfully break through the dark energy.

Thinking of this,

Chen Sheng's mood suddenly became much happier.

Come to the door,

He was about to deliver health products to Xu Ziwen when he saw a column of fruits at the door of his house.

Chen Sheng stepped forward to check.

It's a basket of citrus fruits, with a hint of dirt on the skin, and it looks very fresh.

There was also a card in the basket.

[Brother Chen, seeing that you are not at home, I will put the citrus at the door. 】

[This is the farmhouse activity organized by the school today, it is very sweet, give it to you to taste]

A smiley face is drawn underneath the card.

The final payment was Xu Ziwen.

Chen Sheng scratched his head.

This teacher Xu is really ......

During his time at work, he had seen too many indifferent people.

Like Xu Ziwen, it is really rare.

But since the other party sent it, Chen Sheng couldn't refuse.

He looked at Xu Ziwen's wooden house.

The other party doesn't seem to be at home now, and I think he hasn't come back from school yet.

Just as Chen Sheng was about to go home first and come back to visit in the evening.

His ears suddenly moved.

A crisp sound came from Xu Ziwen's house.

The sound was very soft.

If it weren't for Chen Sheng's agility attribute being high enough, he might not be able to hear it.

Could it be that Xu Ziwen is at home?

Looking at the closed door, Chen Sheng showed a trace of doubt.

He came to the door of the hut with his health supplements.

Knock knock.

"Teacher Xu, are you at home?"

"I bought you something."

No one responded.

Chen Sheng listened attentively.

This time, nothing was heard.

"Is it a mouse?"

Chen Sheng muttered.

With that in mind, he knocked on the door a few more times.

After making sure that no one was at home, Chen Sheng could only return to his home first.

Bang!

Unloading the weight, Chen Sheng suddenly felt a sense of relaxation in his body.

He picked up a citrus and began to peel it.

Toss the orange petal into your mouth and bite it gently.

The sweet juice splashed in the mouth.

"It's sweet."

In just five minutes, Chen Sheng showed off three oranges.

subsequently

He took out a packet of medicinal herbs and threw it into the pot, while taking a shower and preparing to take a nap.

The sun is setting in the west,

It's getting late.

When Chen Sheng was woken up by the ringing of his mobile phone, it was pitch black in the room.

Turning on the light, Chen Sheng got up and walked towards the kitchen.

An hour later.

After cleaning up the mess of dinner, Chen Sheng put on the weight-bearing equipment again.

Now when he works out without weight, he always feels a little tired.

It wasn't until the familiar heaviness returned to his body that Chen Sheng nodded with satisfaction.

Coming to the balcony,

Just as he was about to start practicing, Chen Sheng caught a glimpse of a figure walking slowly from the path.

It was Xu Ziwen who was carrying two bags of citrus.

It just so happened that at this time, the other party also saw him.

"Teacher Xu, why are you getting off work so late today?"

Chen Sheng greeted warmly.

"There's no way, the school party is open today, and it's not over until now."

Xu Ziwen said weakly.

As he walked, his body swayed a little, and he looked tired enough.

"Then Teacher Xu, you rest early, I won't bother you."

Chen Sheng saw that the other party seemed to be a little tired, so he didn't mention the health care products, and planned to wait until tomorrow to deliver them.

After a few more pleasantries, Chen Sheng was about to withdraw his gaze, but suddenly remembered the movement he heard in the wooden house in the afternoon.

For some reason,

He always felt that something was wrong.

"Teacher Xu, todayβ€”"

Chen Sheng looked at Xu Ziwen again, wanting the other party to wait for a while.

But at this moment,

Plop.

Xu Ziwen suddenly fell in front of the wooden house, and the citrus in his hand was scattered all over the ground.

"Teacher Xu, are you alright?!"

Chen Sheng was shocked and hurriedly shouted in the air.

But Xu Ziwen did not respond.

See this,

Chen Sheng walked downstairs quickly.

Come to the front of the wooden house.

Xu Ziwen's eyes were slightly closed, his face was pale, and his chest was constantly rising and falling.

Chen Sheng doesn't understand medicine,

Seeing this, he took out his mobile phone and prepared to call an ambulance.

was stopped by Xu Ziwen raising his hand.

"No.... An ambulance cannot be called. ”

He grabbed Chen Sheng's wrist and said in an almost pleading tone.

"I.... Finished with chocolate, where are you..... Anything else? ”

Wen Yan,

Chen Sheng was stunned.

Chocolate?

Could it be hypoglycemia?

Just when Chen Sheng was puzzled,

saw Xu Ziwen trembling and taking out his mobile phone.

He pointed the screen at Chen Sheng.

There is only one word on it.

Run!

Chen Sheng's pupils shrank.

He opened his mouth, and was about to say something, but his face suddenly moved.

Chen Sheng glanced into the wooden house without a trace,

Seems to perceive something.

"I have it at home, I'll take you there."

He did not run away as Xu Ziwen said, but picked up the other party and ran quickly towards his home.

soon

He went to the third floor.

"Give me water... And chocolate. ”

As soon as he came to the living room, Xu Ziwen on his back spoke again.

His weakness does not seem to be a disguise.

Chen Sheng didn't ask much.

He put it directly on the couch, handed the chocolate to the other party, and immediately ran to get the hot water.

When Chen Sheng brought hot water.

A box of 24 chocolates has been solved by Xu Ziwen.

Taking a large sip of hot water, he continued to devour the chocolate into his mouth.

"Whew-"

It wasn't until the chocolate quickly went down that Xu Ziwen took a long breath and lay back on the sofa.

"I'm sorry Brother Chen, I scared you."

"This is a family disease in our family, and I can't say what it is called."

"Since I was a child, my digestion was extremely poor, and most of the things I ate were difficult to convert into energy."

"Therefore, you can only rely on drinking some qi and blood decoction medicine all year round, or eating high-calorie things in soup stock to replenish it."

"Today may have taken too much energy to do activities, and I couldn't replenish it in time."

Xu Ziwen explained his abnormality to Chen Sheng, with an apologetic smile on his face.

He didn't mention the matter of Fang Cai, and seemed unwilling to talk to Chen Sheng more.

however

Chen Sheng did not answer.

He just sat on the couch next to him, keeping his eyes on the phone screen.

Fingers keep sliding.

See this,

The smile on Xu Ziwen's face slowly retracted.

"Brother Chen, I didn't plan to drag you in."

His body slowly tensed, as if ready to snatch Chen Sheng's phone at any moment.

"Don't worry, I haven't called the police yet."

"I also know that you have no ill will towards me, otherwise you wouldn't have let me run away just now."

In this regard,

Chen Sheng seemed to have expected it.

"May I ask who the person hiding in your room is?"

"Xu Lao.... No, it's time to call you..."

"Shen Ziming, right?"

Chen Sheng pointed his phone at Shen Ziming.

What is displayed on the screen is a wanted warrant that is three points similar to Xu Ziwen.

[Shen Ziming, who killed seven people and seriously injured many people in a bar fight, is extremely brutal and is now on the run]

[I hope that the general public will find traces and report them enthusiastically, and do not risk yourself]
