Merit Book·Xinghai

Mu Xiaohu misunderstood the reason why Rong Yuan was stunned, and passed the tray in his hand forward again, enthusiastically said: "It's delicious, sir, please try it!"

He stretched his head forward a little, the breathing ball was about to touch Rong Yuan, then he blinked his eyes and said softly: "Don't worry, this is a tasting product, no money is required. You..." He turned his head He quickly glanced at the boss in the store, and said mysteriously in a low voice like an underground party joint: "You can take two yuan."

Rong Yuan smiled, picked up a piece and tasted it.The cake is cut very small, only the size of a bite, and it melts in the mouth. The first taste is sweet with coolness, and then there is a strong and light fragrance that explodes in the mouth, which makes people think of the gentle wind. Milky white clouds, vast sky and faint moonlight.Close your eyes, as if you are really in the void.

Rong Yuan opened his eyes, smiled lightly and said, "It really tastes good."

"Is it right? I'll tell you it's delicious." Mu Xiaohu said proudly, with an expression of "I'm sure you're right", "And this one is very hungry! Eat a piece!"

Rong Yuan didn't know where he came to the conclusion that he was very hungry and had no money, judging by the way he was drooling, maybe a hungry person felt that no one was full.

"Grumbling..."

There was a thunderous sound in Mu Xiaohu's stomach, he didn't feel embarrassed, he laughed and said: "These cakes are really delicious, I feel hungry when I see them."

Rong Yuan said: "I haven't eaten for a few days, I must be starving."

"No, no, it's okay." Mu Xiaohu laughed and said, "I used to have nothing to eat for more than a week. This little thing is nothing!"

Rong Yuan glanced at the tray and asked him: "Since you're hungry, why don't you eat a few pieces?" The breathing ball has a square movable pull plate in front of the nose and mouth, which is convenient for eating.

Mu Xiaohu glanced at those snow-white and cute little cakes, swallowed with a "gudoo" and shook his head firmly, "No, I'm an employee now, and guests can only taste these."

Thinking of teasing such a simple and serious child on the spaceship, Rong Yuan felt a little sorry, and asked, "If you buy cakes, do you have a commission?"

"Yes, yes." After Mu Xiaohu nodded and finished speaking, he suddenly understood Rong Yuan's meaning, and suddenly looked up at him, his eyes sparkling.

Rong Yuan smiled and said, "Then tell me about the products in your store."

The owner of the store is from Bai Qixing's own planet. He is fat and round, and looks like an inflated balloon.He looked at the newly recruited salesman who spent a long time talking to one person, and he was very dissatisfied when there were so many potential customers coming and going on the side of the road. , his face turned black as if thunder and lightning were about to strike; then seeing the customer walking into the store following Mu Xiaohu, his expression immediately changed from cloudy to clear, with a smile like an old acquaintance in a foreign land showing on his face; then Mu Xiaohu He talked eloquently about all the desserts and drinks in the store, but the man just didn't want to buy them, and his alienated eyes didn't seem to be tempted at all.The boss's face immediately pulled down again, as if someone owed him millions, if he didn't open the door to do business because peace is the most important thing, he would have wanted to drive this poor man out.

"Poor" Rong Yuan waited for Mu Xiaohu to introduce all the products, then nodded and said, "Sounds good, wrap them up for me."

"All... all... all?!" The boss asked in shock, his voice raised several degrees, so high that it was about to break.

"Well, all of them." Rong Yuan said, he glanced at Mu Xiaohu, and said with a smile: "It's so greedy, I can't help but want to taste it."

Mu Xiaohu grinned a big smile, bright without a trace of gloom.

The boss was overjoyed, fearing that Rong Yuan would go back on his word, he hurriedly urged Mu Xiaohu to take out all the packing boxes, and even called all the chefs in the back hall, and they worked together, quickly packed all the things in the store, and calculated the total price .Rong Yuan left the delivery address, and the bracelet completed the payment by swiping the wristband on the payment screen.Seeing the increased number in his account, the boss was so happy that his face burst into a smile, and after Rong Yuan walked a long way, he stood by the door, waved his hands and shouted enthusiastically: "Sir, we have new products coming out tomorrow! There is a discount! Welcome to visit next time!"

In the empty store, with a light touch of the bracelet and the bracelet, the fat boss transferred Mu Xiaohu's commission to him, and also packed the bread edges cut by the back kitchen and some badly shaped biscuits in a package for delivery. Give it to him, and said kindly: "I can't see, you still have this good fortune. Keep it, I will turn you into a regular employee, and your salary will be increased by two... no, three times, how about it?" He is not a fool, naturally It could be seen that the customer emptied the shop because of Mu Xiaohu.

Mu Xiaohu said happily: "No, I still have to go to the First Military Academy! Now that I've saved enough for the boat fare, I'm leaving now." He bowed deeply and said, "Thank you boss for your care, although we only get along for a short time. , but I will definitely miss you often in the future!"

"There's no need to miss it." The boss said realistically: "As long as you help me promote it more in the future, I still want to sell the cake to the imperial capital!"

"Yes, I got it! The cake here, boss, is the most delicious cake in the universe!" Mu Xiaohu said sincerely.

The boss smiled and said modestly: "Haha, no, I'm not that good either, hahaha."

"Oh? Isn't it?" Mu Xiaohu said longingly, "Is there anything more delicious?"

The fat boss froze, looked at Mu Xiaohu for a while, and then sighed: "You boy, are you shrewd or stupid?"

..........................................................................................

Rong Yuan, who left the cake shop, held a paper bag in his arms, which contained some small crystal-clear desserts. He threw one into his mouth from time to time while walking, and he looked no different from other tourists.

The other things that Rong Yuan bought were sent to the spaceship by the owner, and No. [-], who knew the whole process from the surveillance, would naturally receive them.The one in his hand is a gift from the fat boss. It is a small snack called Yunguo. It looks like colorful jelly. One and one, taste carefully, it seems that the taste of each one is different, it is a snack that adults and children like here.

Even when Rong Yuan was an ordinary person without any special abilities, he seldom walked and ate on the street like this, and doing it at this time felt casual and fun.Maybe Bai Qixing's place has the magic power to let people relax and enjoy, or maybe it's because he met interesting people, his mood at the moment is a rare relaxed and joyful mood recently.

However, this feeling did not last long.

Rong Yuan's footsteps paused slightly and stopped.

This area is a bit remote compared to the commercial street in front, and even the air seems to be much quieter.There are seven or eight stalls on both sides of the road, selling cloaks, drinks and local specialties.There were also a dozen passers-by on the street, some hurried past, some lingered in front of a certain stall, and some sat and rested on a bench by the roadside.A man and a woman leaned against a tree and kissed each other, as if they wanted to rub each other into their bodies.A few children were playing, jumping from the vines into the clouds below, and floating up with their arms flapping, their giggles were very crisp.

Everything looks normal, but there seems to be a faint tension fermenting in the air, even a tree, a flower, and a beam of light seem to be chilling.

Rong Yuan stopped.

With his observation skills, he didn't notice anything unusual around him, but he decided to trust his intuition.

"Number two, I don't think it's right." Rong Yuan asked softly, "Did you find any problems?"

Rong Yuan was wearing a small invisible communicator in his left ear, and the voice of No. [-] was coming from it: "There is no abnormality at present, and everyone's identity is being searched... There is no abnormality in the identity; check the recent surveillance video... ...No problem was found on the screen, but there are monitoring blind spots; enable in-depth search for cross-comparison..."

"Wow--"

At this time, a scream burst out from among the children playing nearby, a little girl with blood on her face stumbled over, followed by three or five boys chasing behind, the tall and strong boy in front suddenly jumped Kicked the little girl down, and then rode up and beat her left and right. The girl screamed and struggled and cried, but the boys behind clapped their hands and laughed, and whistled vigorously from time to time.

All this happened a few steps away from Rong Yuan.

Several passers-by couldn't bear it, but they looked at each other and hesitated.The man in the couple was full of indignation and wanted to come over, but the woman around him pulled him back and prevented him from coming over.

Rong Yuan watched with cold eyes, his expression indifferent.

Seeing that the girl's struggle became weaker and weaker, and the boy's hands were covered with blood, but the strength of his punching did not weaken at all, and his eyes became more and more ferocious.When he raised his fist again, his wrist was suddenly caught.

Rong Yuan sighed and said, "Enough."

The air seemed to be silent for a moment.

The boy turned his head, his eyes were as ferocious as a lone wolf driven into a desperate situation, he glanced at Rong Yuan, shook off his hand, turned and ran away, and the other children followed him and ran away.The beaten girl covered her face with her hands, curled up on the ground and wept.

Rong Yuan looked at her with complicated eyes, looked at her thin arm, and the countless scars on that arm that were light but still left traces.After a while, he squatted down, put the bag in his hand in front of her, and said, "Yunguo, it's delicious, try a piece."

The girl's body trembled, her limbs contracted subconsciously as if she was afraid of being beaten, then she slowly raised her head, looked at Rong Yuan like a vigilant little animal, and stretched out her small hand towards the food bag.

The voice of No. [-] sounded: "Rong Yuan, you have to be careful. Although they have completely legal identities and growth records, they have no traces of past existence - no consumption records, no punishment records, no group photos, no social circles, they are……"

No. [-]'s voice stopped abruptly, because four walls of light suddenly rose around Rong Yuan, enclosing him like a cage, and the top closed instantly.At first glance, the four walls seemed to be made of thin white railings, but the surrounding temperature began to rise slowly after they appeared, and the transpiring air made the light show signs of distortion.

The passers-by, street vendors, couples, and children running away all turned their gazes to Rong Yuan at the same time, their faces could not be seen clearly under the clouds and fog, but they didn't think they would be so surprised.

Number two didn't finish his sentence, but Rong Yuan knew what he was going to say.

"I know." He said to himself, and his right hand grabbed the girl's little hand like lightning.

The palm of that hand opened like a petal, revealing a muzzle full of metallic texture.

Rong Yuan looked down, and saw that the girl with blood on her face was also looking at him, behind the messy hair, there were no tears, but a pair of calm eyes without any emotion.
