Tomb Raider: What the hell is this strange commission?

Chi Yu has grown horns.

Although the current degree of blood erosion is not high, those edges and corners are hidden in Chi Yu's long hair and do not look obvious.

The newly born horns were not hard enough, and every friction with the hair would cause some subtle pain, which resulted in Chi Yu's mood not being very good during this period.

If Black Glasses still stayed in Beijing, based on past behavior, he would definitely become the target of Chi Yu's anger.

Fortunately, there were some problems in the shop in Changsha a few days ago. A phone call ended Black Glasses' leisurely time, forcing him to drive on the highway back to Changsha in the middle of the night, thus escaping the disaster.

"Before I left, I specifically asked Third Master to borrow someone to help look after the shop, but the guy across the street was just like a fool. He just beat up Third Master's men as soon as he found them. Now, I don't know what happened to the things in the shop."

When Black Glasses said this, his tone was extremely resentful. He looked at Chi Yu holding a cup of hot tea, curled up on the sofa, unmoved, and couldn't help but reach out and poke him.

"Boss Chi, since Third Master is too busy to take care of us now, how about I pack up my things and move to Beijing to accompany you?"

Chi Yu didn't say whether it was good or bad, but just drank a sip of tea: "I thought you liked Changsha."

"I don't like what you said, Boss Chi."

The man with black glasses came over and squeezed Chi Yu to sit down, causing the sofa cushion to sink deeper.

Chi Yu adjusted the teacup in her hand which had shifted slightly due to the noise, turned her head, and stared at him calmly.

The man with black glasses didn't feel like he was being disliked. He lay back on the sofa, looking lazily into Chi Yu's eyes.

"I don't have the habit of staying in the same place all the time. If I hadn't helped you with the shipment, I would have gone somewhere else to enjoy myself."

Chi Yu said, "Oh?" "Really? So it's all my fault?"

The man with black glasses hooked his arm around Chi Yu's neck and complained, "Boss Chi, you clearly know that's not what I meant, why do you have to pick on this and argue with me?"

Chi Yu then laughed and asked him, "So what do you want to do?"

"Someone has muddied the waters in Changsha. Things have been a bit uneasy lately. Rather than waiting for something to happen before trying to find a way out, it's better to take this opportunity to get out as soon as possible."

As he spoke, the man with black glasses also smiled: "With you in Beijing, it's a good place to settle down."

"But I'm a blind man with no money and no house. Boss Chi, please have pity on me and wait for me to take me in after I finish dealing with things over there, okay?"

Black Glasses once again made his appeal.

So Chi Yu narrowed his eyes, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

He never liked others getting too close to his private territory.

Although before this, Black Glasses always stayed at Chi Yu's place every time he came to Beijing, but there is an essential difference between living here permanently and staying here.

The request made by the other party this time has already exceeded the limit of tolerance that Chi Yu can give.

So his answer was: "No, find another place to live."

Not getting the answer he wanted, the man with black glasses sighed softly.

"How ruthless, Boss Chi."

He stood up from the sofa, picked up the coat on the armrest, and put it on his shoulders. "But I'm not surprised you think so. I'll go take care of the shop first, see you later."

Anyway, they still have a lot of time.

Walking out of Chi Yu's house, the man with black glasses looked back at the door that was closed again and thought.

Maybe love is such a wonderful thing that it makes a person who once only wanted to live in the present start to look forward to the illusory future.

He chuckled softly and drove away from Beijing in the night.

Chi Yu had no idea what Black Glasses was thinking.

After sending away the man with black glasses, he still didn't feel sleepy.

This is inconsistent with the habits of snakes, but strictly speaking, Chi Yu is not really a snake.

Not to mention that now there is some banshee bloodline added to the mix.

Chi Yu sat in the study, playing with the bone pen that Logos gave him as a token of reliance - brand new, made by the Banshee Lord himself - and turned it around twice, wondering casually whether he would evolve into a Chimera if he relied on a few other operators.

Well, it wasn't as if he actually wanted to become a Chimera.

Chi Yu, amused by his own idea, chuckled, put down the bone pen, and took out the jade box that had been placed in the system backpack.

After gaining the support of Logos, many theories about spells emerged in his mind.

Although I don’t know how this knowledge is connected with the silk book from the Chu State.

But Chi Yu did interpret some interesting content from the content of the Chu Silk Book that he had glimpsed when chatting with Xie Yuchen on the way back.

In modern society, witchcraft is an attempt to use supernatural mysterious forces to influence or control certain people or things.

"Goddess ceremonies" and "spells" are the main contents of witchcraft and one of the popular cultures in Chu. For Chi Yu now, it is also a part of constructing the spell.

Chi Yu spread the silk book on the table, then took out a piece of white paper and recorded the runes that he gradually analyzed and peeled off from the pattern on the silk book.

This process of analyzing the spell lasted for about a week.

So after Hei Yanjing finished dealing with all the affairs in Changsha and hurried back, he successfully got Chi Yu, who spent the whole day in the study and was in love with Bo Shu.

"...Boss Chi."

The man with black glasses stood at the door of the study, looking at the scrolls on the table in the room that were almost piled up into a small mountain. Even though he had seen a lot of storms, he was speechless for a moment.

He put his backpack aside, tried to suppress the urge to sigh, restarted the language system that was a little down, and asked Chi Yu: "What are you doing?"

However, Chi Yu did not respond to the question asked by the man with black glasses. He was still working at his desk, comparing the silk book with what he had copied.

So Black Glasses raised his voice and repeated his question again.

"Boss Chi, what are you doing?"

"Quiet."

Seeing Chi Yu’s perfunctory response without even raising his head, the man with black glasses smiled.

Well, it looks like someone needs to feel some love from the unstable element.

The man with black glasses strode over and slammed his hand on the table.

The force caused the pile of documents on the desk to vibrate, and also completely pulled Chi Yu's thoughts away from the Chu Silk Book.

"You'd better have something serious to say." Chi Yu looked at the man with black glasses expressionlessly.

"Business? I only know that there is a person who hasn't had a good rest for at least a week, and the only business he needs to do now is to put down what he is doing and go to sleep."

Black Glasses pointed at Chi Yu's clothes, and his words were filled with a feeling of disappointment that he hadn't achieved despite being deliberately suppressed:

"The home clothes you are wearing have no wrinkles from sleeping, and your room shows no signs of being occupied recently. Boss Chi, are you going to wait for me to come back and collect your body?"

Chi Yu blinked and said belatedly, "So you have already dealt with the matter in Changsha?"

The man with black glasses knocked on the table.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze locked onto Chi Yu through his iconic sunglasses, his tone inexplicably dangerous:

"We are discussing your sleep problem, Mr. Chi, please don't change the subject casually."

Chi Yu: ...

The two looked at each other in silence for a while.

"Okay, I'll go to sleep." Chi Yu put down the pen.

"Good night."
