Trafford Buyers Club

Chapter 132
Luo Qiu looked at Zhuge quietly.

When a guest comes, no matter what he himself does, there is no way to refuse.It's around 03:30 pm now, right?
"So, guest, you left Nanako behind and came right away, didn't you?"

Zhuge shook his head and said, "No... I, I didn't dare to look at her at the time, so I found an excuse to go home, and another excuse to come out."

"Then Nanako-san will definitely feel very disappointed."

With the aftertaste of shock, Zhuge was silent for a while before tremblingly said: "Nai...she, what is it? Why can...can..."

He really didn't want to think about the scene he saw not long ago, and extremely hoped to hear the answer he wanted to hear from this strange shopkeeper.

"Clay." Luo Qiu didn't intend to hide it either—because he didn't ask before, he didn't tell. Now if he asks, he should tell. The club has always been more honest.

"Clay?" Zhuge opened his mouth, full of disbelief and said, "How is it possible!"

"The guest thinks that Nanako, who has already appeared in front of you, is also impossible...?"

"I, I'm not..." Zhuge shook his head, and then said rather angrily, "But what I paid was..."

Luo Qiu suddenly said indifferently: "Guest, do you need me to judge the value of what you have paid? Our club does have a set of standards for evaluating the soul of our guests."

Zhuge was startled, and suddenly felt an inexplicable fear.

He was afraid of hearing some facts from the shopkeeper...something that he had been able to hear almost all the time since he was a child.

"I'm not... I'm just..."

He suddenly didn't know what he wanted to express - because Nanako was just made of clay, he asked angrily?But recalling the request he made at the beginning, he just wanted Nanako to return to him, and he didn't define what Nanako was.

Originally...that was just a virtual character on the mobile game.

just clay...

Zhuge suddenly understood why Nanako never ate in front of him, why she only cooked fried rice with eggs, why... never touched her when she was washing.Even in the park, after being sprayed wet, it will become so flustered.

Nanako is afraid that if she gets wet, her body will melt, will she... frighten herself?
Does she think so?

Zhuge swallowed, and finally asked what he really wanted to ask, "Does she... have her own thoughts?"

It has been some time since Nanako actually appeared.Nanako always stays with him, watching him eat, watching movies with him, chatting with him online, and even playing games with him, and she never feels bored.

This is very abnormal.

This...is not normal in the first place!

Yes, how could it be possible to have such a girl who manages everything silently, yet still maintains that sweet smile all the time.

"Isn't this what you want as a guest?" Luo Qiu said, "Those who know how to care about you and are willing to chat with you will not look down on you."

"Me!" Zhuge fell silent all of a sudden.He suddenly felt an unprecedented irritability.

That is, even if she was ridiculed by the people around her, even if she was directly rejected after expressing her love to a girl because of her adolescent hormonal impulses a few years ago, even if she was just a small role in the office... She never felt irritated.

"I... I'm going back."

Zhuge stood up all of a sudden, and walked towards the gate of the club without looking back.

"Welcome next time, guest."

When going out, Zhuge heard the boss's voice behind him, he paused for a moment, and finally didn't respond, he pushed open the door and walked out.

Zhuge's second visit did not make any deals.

……

You Ye came over, picked up the scented tea that Zhuge didn't drink at all, and put it on the tray held by Qin Chuyu.Qin Chuyu didn't say a word, turned around and left silently... She still couldn't figure out why she was really doing this kind of work.

"There is no improvement." You Ye was beside Luo Qiu at this time, and said softly: "However, it is a bit strange to think about being wet by the sprinkler all of a sudden."

Luo Qiu took off his mask, and held up his teacup at this moment, thinking about his sudden interest in betting with Tai Yinzi, he suddenly asked: "50 years, it should be a long time."

Perhaps to You Ye, it's not that long... But to Luo Qiu, 50 years is already twice as long as his life.

You Ye only answered Luo Qiu's question with a smile.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this." Luo Qiu shrugged, "By the way, how is the research on that divine stone?"

After leaving the catacombs in Ulaanbaatar, the sacred stone was handed over to You Ye for safekeeping.Boss Luo, who has always managed the family well, naturally felt that it would be more cost-effective to let the knowledgeable and talented maid study it, rather than spending time on the appraisal himself.

You Ye also lived up to expectations and said: "Currently, according to Zhang Jiao's description of it, radioactivity detection and material analysis have been carried out. The material should not be a known material. In addition, the radioactivity has been very active. I tested A very weak ray comes out, which can speed up the metabolism of cells."

"That's why there is spring on a dead tree?" Luo Qiu asked curiously.

You Ye nodded and said: "Well, yes. But the radioactivity on the sacred stone has been decaying all the time, presumably it is the characteristic of this kind of ray itself, and it cannot be released permanently... Generally speaking, this may be caused by external radiation. A meteorite that fell from space."

"Meteorite..." Luo Qiu nodded: "Then what's the matter with absorbing souls?"

You Ye said: "It should be the instinctive reaction of the meteorite itself. If the soul is regarded as the spirit, what it absorbs is actually something like spiritual waves. The interesting thing is... There seems to be a kind of A very special life."

"It's alive?" Luo Qiu was suddenly surprised.

You Ye was not sure: "It's hard to say... I haven't seen this kind of thing. But it should not have its own consciousness. Even if it absorbs spiritual power, it seems to be just an instinctive reaction. Maybe it's related to its ability' The key to "birth"? Next, I plan to do another X-ray fluorescence spectrum and X-ray analysis, and if there are any further discoveries, You Ye will let the master know as soon as possible."

So Boss Luo, who didn't understand what X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy was, or extremely general analysis, could only nod his head.

As the boss, he is more or less a scumbag with a sense of embarrassment in the face of a god of learning.

"Okay, it's okay, I'll go out first."

Ren Ziling...was thrown into that restaurant and fell asleep.

……

……

Zhuge put his hand on the handle of the door of his rental house, but he couldn't open the door forcefully for a long time.He didn't know what he was hesitating about, but he felt his mind was blank... That scene that he couldn't see was always lingering in his mind.

But the door opened all of a sudden.

Still as usual, Nanako stood at the door, "Zhuge, you're back!"

Zhuge stared blankly at this face with a sweet smile, but his body instinctively took a half step back.

"Zhuge, what's wrong with you?" Nanako looked puzzled, "Are you uncomfortable?"

Nanako stretched out her hand and touched Zhuge's forehead.

The face that made him feel extremely happy came closer and closer, but the scene of removing the head also became extremely clear in his mind.

clay……

All of a sudden, in front of Zhuge's eyes, she seemed to have turned into a pile of upright mud... A pile of mud approached him.

Shocked!

Getting closer, getting closer.

"do not!"

Almost instinctively, perhaps out of fear in his heart, Zhuge waved his arm subconsciously, and slapped away the palm that was about to press his forehead.

"Zhuge..." Nanako stared blankly at this scene, her sweet smile seemed to disappear all of a sudden, "You...did you see that...in the park..."

Zhuge also looked at his palm in a daze...

I...what the hell am I...

"I...I...I..."

Back, back, back, Zhuge felt his mouth dry for a while, turned around and ran down the stairs frantically.

"Zhuge!"

He was downstairs, as if he heard a crying voice...but he wanted to run, the farther the better, the happiness for him seemed to be shattered in an instant.
