The two people behind the counter quickly noticed that there was a customer at the door, and the moment they turned their heads, the text bubbles disappeared without a trace, just like the hallucination of the viewer.

The girl was stunned for a while, and her face became bewildered. After a while, she asked, "Ah... is that... open?"

"Here." Qiu Qiu put down the empty plate of mung bean cold cake, temporarily ignored his magic scorpion yellow stewed flying dragon's wings, and said politely: "Hello, what do you want to eat?"

Zhong Yu took his plate and walked aside.

The girl had already met someone, so she was embarrassed to leave. She walked in with small steps, sat down in front of the only dining table, and looked around.

"have what?"

Qiu Qiu replied, "There are scrambled eggs."

The girl waited for the next sentence, but didn't hear it for a long time, so she had to look up.She seldom stared at people for a long time, and now she only glanced at it and then lowered her head, silently.

The shopkeeper was very handsome, but his expression was a bit indifferent. She didn't dare to ask questions such as "what do you mean" and "scrambled eggs and then?", so she nodded indiscriminately.

Because the obviously taller adult man in the store was facing the pool, and there was a large area behind him, and the group of erratic text bubbles flashed again at this moment.

[Black shop] [It's really a black shop...] [It's too dark! 】【Sister, hold on, don't cause trouble, that tall guy is not easy to mess with】【This black shop really opened my eyes, but I can't stop it】【Why hasn't my complaint been accepted yet】

girl:"……"

Qiu Qiu didn't know the background of the subtitles that appeared behind him, and said cheerfully: "Okay, a scrambled egg."

After that, he thought for a while, and leaned forward slightly: "Excuse me, can I extend my hand?"

The text bubble behind him suddenly became intense, with meaningless garbled characters sandwiched between huge exclamation marks, flashing so quickly that the girl couldn't see clearly, but the man by the pool turned around and disappeared collectively again.

...What are these...

The girl's heart was pounding, and the hand she struggled to stretch out trembled slightly.

When her palm was touched, she subconsciously closed her eyes tightly and flinched.

"Okay." Then she heard the shopkeeper say.

It turned out that it was really just a touch, the kind of touch that breaks apart at the touch of a touch, only a little warmth remains in the palm of the hand.

She gradually calmed down, watching the silhouette of the owner going to get the ingredients.

The girl actually skipped class.

Half a month ago, a big change happened at home.Although she has been psychologically prepared and her daily life remains unchanged, she always feels unreal as if she is stepping on a cloud.

During the school lunch break today, she sat in her window seat in a daze as usual.Turning his head to look outside, he suddenly found that the weather was particularly good.

The sky is blue like a gradient drawn from the color palette, and the wind blowing against the face carries a smoky summer flavor.

There were boys playing basketball against the clock on the playground, and there must have been a particularly dazzling one, who did something that made the girls watching the game burst out laughing.

The water bottle reflected a ray of light in the sun, which just pierced into the girl's eyes. At this moment, she suddenly felt unbearable.

Everyone is happy.

How can you be so happy.

It was the first time in her life that a well-behaved girl did such an outrageous thing—she even skipped class.

She left school, took a bus aimlessly, walked to this street aimlessly, and sat in a strange restaurant.

The shorter shopkeeper was earnestly making a plate of "scrambled eggs". The tall man didn't speak, but leaned against the wall and looked at the small shopkeeper with no sense of presence.

He only laughed once in a while, as if the shopkeeper accidentally shoveled a small piece of broken egg out of the pot.

The scrambled eggs are very simple. After a while, a hot plate was delivered to the front, and the shopkeeper said with a blank expression: "Okay."

The girl was a little dumbfounded.

This plate of scrambled eggs doesn't look good, and I can't tell what the reason is. After all, in her imagination, scrambled eggs don't seem to be able to cook so high.

Moreover, there is not even a trace of scallion in this egg, and a few small pieces show a little bit of burnt black marks, and the fire control seems to be quite lacking.

But the girl somehow felt very kind.

She didn't complain about anything, she thanked her in a low voice, picked up her chopsticks and took a small bite.

After a while, she showed a slightly surprised expression, was stunned for a moment, raised her head, bent her eyes at Qiu Qiu and said, "It's delicious."

Qiu Qiu imitated her and also made a smiling expression.

The store was quiet for a while, only the slight sound of bowls and chopsticks clashing.

Zhong Yu seemed to have noticed something, stood in the corner and looked around the whole room, those bullet screens instantly suspended the small meeting activities, and did not dare to make a sound.

He glanced suspiciously at Qiu Qiu's ordinary pot, and wiped the egg crumbs on the side of the pot with his hand, but he really didn't see anything special.

"What are you doing?" Qiu Qiuzheng turned around in surprise.

"Well," Zhong Yu didn't intend to say anything in front of the guests, "Go get him a glass of water."

Qiu Qiu suddenly nodded: "Oh."

The girl got the water and smiled shyly.

There were not many scrambled eggs on a plate, and she had almost eaten it all. Holding the chopsticks, she didn't move for a while.

"My mother passed away not long ago." She said softly, putting down her chopsticks.

"Ah." Qiu Qiu responded, as if he didn't quite understand the meaning, so he fixed his gaze on her.

"In fact, she has been ill for a long time. We all know that this day will not be far away. I feel that I have prepared myself... But after she really left, I still feel that something is different."

"Obviously I still go to school, after school, and do my homework every day... She has been in the hospital before, and I don't see her very often. Dad told me, how should I live or what should I do."

The girl said softly, with her fingers resting on the wall of the cup: "But I still miss her very much. Whenever I think about it, I feel very sad."

Her eyes were slightly red, and she said, "Maybe it's because I lost someone who was very special to me."

The house was quiet, and there were birds chirping outside the window.

After a while, the girl took a deep breath, looked up and smiled: "Thank you, the scrambled eggs are delicious and have a very special taste, I don't seem to be so sad."

"You're welcome." Qiu Qiu looked at her seriously and said, "I did this specially for you."

The girl paid the credit and left quickly. Qiu Qiu leaned over to take the plate, and almost bumped into the guardian when he turned around.

Zhong Yu's eyes were not friendly, he held up a spoon and shook it in front of his eyes: "It's salty."

"Ah, is it?" Qiu Qiu was surprised, leaned close to him and stuck out his little tongue, licked the surface of the spoon, smacked his lips and said, "It seems a little bit, but she likes it very much."

Zhong Yu: "..."

Looking at the spoon in his hand, he somehow felt a little hot, clicked his tongue impatiently, and threw it into the sink.

A smile appeared in Qiu Qiu's eyes: "Do you really want to know why the guests think it's delicious?"

Zhong Yu looked at him suspiciously.

"Because, I did it specially for her." Qiu Qiu quickly announced the answer, his little eyes were full of complacency.

He said this too seriously, Zhong Yu narrowed his eyes, and countless thoughts popped up in his mind.After a while, he directly reached out and wiped off a small piece of egg that was stuck on the spatula, and put it in his mouth to grind it.

There shouldn't be any weird seasonings added.

Overall, it's normal, not delicious, a bit salty.

Besides... Zhong Yu frowned tightly.Some illusory feelings are difficult to accurately capture with taste, let alone describe with words.

It is not so much a "taste", but closer to a "spiritual feeling", although it is so weak that it is fleeting.

Zhong Yu never forgot that Qiu Qiu is not a human being, he is a monster.

His taste system is very different from that of ordinary people, and he said that it is difficult for humans to understand him.

Qiu Qiu has his own set of criteria for judging. He thinks that the buns from the roadside stalls are more delicious than the dishes from the top restaurant Mengli Township, and he also showed great interest and love for the food he made with his own hands.

Zhong Yu once wondered whether Qiu Qiu had a sense of the "making" process of food, but what is good and what is bad in this process?

Could he use this sensual gift for making food, too?

"Do you want to eat it?" Qiu Qiu's eyes brightened slightly: "The scrambled eggs just now were specially made for the guests, and they were made according to what she wanted, so you think they are not delicious. If you are a guest, I will also give them to you." You do what you like."

"..." Zhong Yu was suddenly so angry that his brain hurt: "I have to pay for being a guest, right? You really can't take any losses."

Qiu Qiu let out an ah, and immediately felt a little guilty.

Think about the guardian's egg feast, the mung bean cold cake I just made... Qiu Qiu reluctantly said: "Then, I will make it for you. You have to give me a taste first."

"What?" Zhong Yu felt that facing Qiu Qiu, he was in various shocks every day.

"taste--"

"Who?" Zhong Yu asked.

"You." Qiu Qiu said, "I have to taste it to know what you want."

Zhong Yu stared at him for a full 3 minutes, staring wide-eyed and small-eyed, until Qiu Qiu was eager to get started, and suddenly backed away quickly, flashing to the door of the store in the blink of an eye.

"No need, don't touch me." Zhong Yu coldly refused: "Go eat yourself."

After all, he disappeared directly.

Qiu Qiu: "..."

Text bubbles in all directions lit up one after another behind him.

[Escaped] [He escaped] [Escaped so fast] [The owner of the black shop is still very good] [The black shop is worthy of the name] [Why hasn’t my complaint been accepted yet? 】

Accompanied by the background, Qiu Qiu narrowed his eyes slightly.

-

That night, Tengluo Street fell asleep in the night.

A gust of wind blew up outside the white building, and the messy shrubs and vines shook annoyingly, as if to shake away the drowsiness in the house.

Inside the shutters, the moonlight was cut into strips by the slits, fell on the couch, and flowed to the ground.

Zhong Yu couldn't sleep well in the dark place where light couldn't reach.

It's hot around the waist.

It was like a tiny breath hitting the back of the neck.

His hands and feet were heavy and unable to move, just like the nightmares he had fallen into countless times, the feeling of being controlled and restrained, like chains around his neck.

Zhong Yu's breathing gradually sank, and his strong muscles gradually tightened, showing distinct ups and downs.After a while, the eyeballs were finally overwhelmed, trembled a few times, and opened them suddenly.

"..."

Zhong Yu's eyes were bloodshot, and he met Qiu Qiu's eyes.

The opponent wrapped his arms around him, and his whole body leaned down obliquely, almost sticking to him.

"What are you doing?" He said hoarsely, his whole body was stiff.

"Brother Zhong Yu." Qiu Qiu's eyes were serious: "Taste one sip, just one sip, okay?"

"Not good." Zhong Yu said decisively.

"Okay?" Qiu Qiu asked again.

"Get lost." Zhong Yu said.

Zhong Yu shook off Qiu Qiu, turned over and got out of bed, went to the bathroom in a mess and washed his face.

As soon as the cold water was poured, the tense feeling on his body faded a lot, and he exhaled slowly to regain his sanity.

Going out to see, the little monster is still sitting on his bed, cross-legged, looking at him expectantly, not to mention how cute it is at first glance.

But a monster is a monster, to climb up in the middle of the night to "taste" him, this is what humans do! ?

Zhong Yu was used to being scolded for not being a human being, and it was the first time he faced something less human than him, and his temples throbbed slightly.

He leaned against the bathroom door and Qiu Qiu stared at each other for a while, then suddenly laughed.

"I remember, when you were first summoned, you were a jelly," Zhong Yu said.

Qiu Qiu repeated blankly: "Jelly?"

"Now that you have become your original form, let me have a taste. Reciprocity is the rule of human beings." He threatened with a low pressure: "Hurry up."
