It's a human being!

After eating the barbecue, it was almost ten o'clock.

Everyone packed up their things, and when Lin Ruoruo returned the charcoal stove for the barbecue to the nearby farmhouse, Zhou Zhou remembered that he didn't bring such tools as a charcoal stove on the way here.

He thought about it: "So it was borrowed."

"That's right, otherwise it could have been conjured up by your adults?" Shi Hui said.

"How is that possible?" Zhou Zhou argued in a low voice, "So the ones you ate just now were also bought from the hotel?"

Originally, it was just a casual question, but Shi Hui glanced at Jin Ci hesitantly after hearing this, and said vaguely, "It's... isn't it?"

"'Really?'" Zhou Zhou asked suspiciously, "Could it be that you all caught him?"

In fact, the pile of food they just ate was so large that if they hadn't bought it, then counting the time, I'm afraid they would have to let those crabs and prawns crawl over by themselves to have so many.

Shi Hui's expression suddenly became subtle, with a vague look of regret.

Without waiting for him to come back, Zhou Zhou nodded and boasted: "Wow, then you are so good, is it so easy to catch crabs!?"

Shi Hui's expression froze for a moment.

Zhou Zhou continued: "It's a pity that I fell asleep when you caught them. Otherwise, I would also like to catch them together. I've never caught these before. It must be fun."

Shi Hui glanced at Jin Ci's face quietly, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Hey, it's okay, in fact, the main reason is that Brother Ci is very good, and he catches a lot. If you want to catch him, let him teach you."

Zhou Zhou looked back at Jin Ci.

Jin Ci finally spoke: "Today is too late, next time."

Zhou Zhou didn't expect to continue playing tonight, so he nodded.

When I returned to the homestay where I lived, for some reason, the whole building looked eerie and weird from the outside.

Zhou Zhou took another look, and finally realized: "Hey, why don't you turn on the light?"

The entire homestay was pitch black, all lit by a candle dangling on the table in the hall, the trembling light seemed to be swallowed by darkness in the next second.

It's not too late now, logically speaking, even if the access control is closed, the light at the door should be on.

Shi Hui, who was walking in front, stood at the door and waited for them to approach and said, "There is a power outage. I just asked the boss, and this area is affected. It is estimated that there is a problem with the aging of the cables, and someone will come to fix it tomorrow. "

It's relatively remote here, so it's not like the city where people are on duty 24 hours a day.

However, it is not a big problem if there is no electricity for one night, as long as there is hot water to wash and go to bed.

Zhou Zhou used his mobile phone as a light, and when he returned to his room to charge it, he realized that it was not good.

"It's over." He looked at the battery of the mobile phone, which was red, and was hesitating whether to turn off the light of the mobile phone, when he heard the warning sound of low battery.

Jin Ci took a look: "Close it, I'll ask the boss for a candle."

Zhou Zhou turned off the lights, and the room was suddenly pitch black, with only the silhouettes of objects barely visible against the moonlight.

The sound of Jin Ci's footsteps approaching the gate, and he would be the only one left in the darkness, Zhou Zhou's heart tightened, and he quickly followed: "Wait, Jin Xue—"

He couldn't see clearly in the dark, Zhou Zhou couldn't brake enough to hit the opponent's back, and even hit his mouth, the pain was so painful that tears almost came out, but the opponent turned around and supported him.

"Are you okay?" Jin Ci asked.

"Hiss...it's all right." Zhou Zhou licked his sore mouth, and there was a bloody smell in the sting, as if the skin had been torn.

Jin Ci was silent for a while before he straightened up and stepped back a little.

Zhou Zhou said: "Senior Jin, let me go with you, it's quite dark here..."

Jin Ci looked at him: "Well, I'm afraid of the dark, you can come with me."

Zhou Zhou'an went downstairs with Jin Ci in peace of mind, and asked the boss for a candle.When they returned to the room, they saw two bright green lights floating in the corridor in the middle of the air, like two will-o'-the-wisps floating towards them strangely.

Zhou Zhou took half a step back in fright, almost stepping on Jin Ci's foot.

"Don't be afraid." Jin Ci's hand pressed firmly on his shoulder.

Zhou Zhou's heart stabilized with this movement, and after a closer look, he found that they were Lang Yue's eyes.

The original shape of the two Langyue brothers is a wolf, and it is normal for their eyes to glow green.

Zhou Zhou said hello, "Are you coming down to get the candles too?"

Langyue's gaze shifted from the candle in his hand to his face, as if he was observing something very intently.

"Yes." His faintly green eyeballs remained motionless.

Zhou Zhou suddenly realized what the other party was looking at.

His lips were scratched just now, and he doesn't know why Langyue's eyes are so good, and even a small injury can be noticed in such a dim light... Don't have any weird associations, right?

Fortunately, Langyue didn't say anything strange, she only glanced twice and quickly withdrew her gaze, then walked over with her eyes straight ahead.

Zhou Zhou pursed his lower lip uncomfortably.

With candles, the room can finally be seen clearly, but the bathroom is still dark, after all, candles should not be too close to the shower.

Jin Ci went to take a shower first. When he came out, he held a towel in one hand and said to him while wiping his hair, "I've adjusted the water temperature. You can just turn it on. The left side of the shelf is body wash, and the right side is shampoo."

This is really thoughtful, saving him from having to figure it out in the dark.

Zhou Zhou leisurely went in and finished taking off his clothes, he paused when he saw the mirror on the wall.

He walked to the mirror and wiped off the moisture on it with his hand. A vague silhouette was reflected in the dim mirror, and most of his face was completely shrouded in shadow.

Zhou Zhou couldn't help getting closer, trying to see how his lips were broken, but the floor tiles were too slippery, and he fell to the ground with a bang.

"Ow—"

Zhou Zhou cried out in pain.

Hasty footsteps came from the room: "Dayday?"

The bathroom door is a large piece of transparent glass, so you can see what's going on inside at a glance, but fortunately, there is a layer of frost in the middle, even when the light is transparent, you can only see the blurry figure inside, let alone when the light is not good.

Jin Ci stood in front of the door, as if he wanted to open the door to come in, Zhou Zhou got up quickly: "It's okay, it's okay, don't come in!"

Jin Ci put his hand on the doorknob and did not move.

Even though he knew that he might not be able to see clearly from the other side, Zhou Zhou still felt a little uncomfortable, and turned his body sideways in the dark, trying to grab the bath towel hanging on the wall.

Jin Ci took half a step away, turned his head towards the door and paused: "Wait for me."

Zhou Zhou: "?"

Jin Ci went out, and after a while, there was a buzzing noise from the next room.

"Uncle Jin, don't, don't—"

"Me too, I'm almost out of battery, really..."

"It's only been five minutes since I finished this one... oh..."

When Jin Ci came back, he was holding a mobile phone with a light on.

"Take it."

Wrapped in a bath towel, Zhou Zhou froze for a moment before opening the glass door to take the phone.The other party didn't look at him anymore, turned and left.

This phone should be Shihui's, and the battery is already red, and I don't know when it will die.

Zhou Zhou put the phone on the sink, remembering Shi Huihao's words, he couldn't help speeding up his hand movements, wanting to finish washing quickly and return the remaining battery to him.

It's a pity that no matter how fast the action is, the phone will still die after washing the phone.

When he came out in his pajamas, Jin Ci leaned against the window and saw him waving to him: "Come here."

Zhou Zhou handed over the phone, a little embarrassed: "Senior Jin, I ran out of electricity, Senior Shi Hui..."

"Don't care about him." Jin Ci took the phone and put it aside, not caring at all, then picked up a towel and began to dry his hair.

The room was very quiet, probably because of the ambiguity of the flickering of the candles, Jin Ci's facial features looked particularly deep, and when his long eyes were half down, it gave people an illusion of silence and affection.

Zhou Zhou glanced quietly, then lowered his head to focus on the floor.

"The hair dryer can't be used, I need to wipe it for a while." Jin Ci said.

"Hmm." Zhou Zhou reached out and stroked Jin Ci's hair, a little surprised, "Have you already done this?"

He thought it might still be a little wet, so he wanted to help Jin Ci wipe his hair.

Jin Ci raised his eyebrows slightly, and pressed his hand back: "Don't move, your hair will do the same in a while."

Zhou Zhou sat down obediently again.

After a while, it was almost done, Zhou Zhou reached out and touched his hair, it was really as mentioned before, very dry, almost as if it had been blown with a hair dryer.

"It's amazing." Zhou Zhou praised.

Jin Ci seemed to be amused: "What's so amazing about this."

Zhou Zhou said seriously: "It's just amazing. I wipe it with a towel myself. I definitely can't wipe it so dry."

After finishing speaking without hearing a response, Zhou Zhou raised his head strangely, only to realize that the other party was looking at him with lowered eyes, and he didn't know whether he listened or not.

"Senior Jin?"

In the dim light, Jin Ci's dark eyes reflected a thin layer of candlelight, his gaze fell on his lips, and then he raised his hand to lightly touch the corner of his lips: "It's broken."

The opponent's fingertips were slightly cool, and there was a bit of pity in the movements, and there were other indescribable meanings.

"Does it hurt?"

Zhou Zhou was in a daze for a moment, and subconsciously opened his mouth to answer, but accidentally bit the fingertip of the other party.

Zhou Zhou took two steps back like an electric shock, and pursed his lips.

"No, it doesn't hurt." He almost stuttered, his heart was beating fast, and regardless of whether the other party felt abrupt, he turned and hurried towards the bed, "It's getting late...I'm going to bed first."

Zhou Zhou wrapped himself in the quilt in the dark, and it took a lot of effort not to bury his face in the pillow.

There seemed to be some tactile sensation left on the lips.

Zhou Zhou's mind was in a mess, and he turned his back to the outside and tried not to think about it, but he kept his ears open and listened carefully to what was going on behind him.After a long time, there was the sound of footsteps at a steady pace. Jin Ci put out the candle and went to bed.

Everything is like a stone falling into the water, and nothing happens after the ripples disappear.

Or maybe nothing happened.

An inexplicable emotion suddenly rose in Zhou Zhou's heart. He turned over and stared at the silhouette in the dark for a long time before he couldn't help but say, "Good night, Senior Jin."

A low voice came from the opposite side: "Good day and night."

Zhou Zhou suddenly felt comfortable.
