The little mute took my cub

Lu Ran wasn't in the mood to meddle in other people's business. Seeing the security guard opened the door for him, he thanked the security guard and went straight upstairs.

Opening the door, Lu Ran was stunned.

No, he thought.

After he finished eating, the bucket of instant noodles on the dining table, the takeaway box, and the unwashed clothes piled up on the sofa...all disappeared.

Instead, closets to dry laundry, living rooms to be swept, floors to be mopped immaculately.

Feeling miraculous, Lu Ran knelt down and touched the floor with his index finger.

No, this is definitely not Lu Ran's style.

He clearly remembered that before the accident, he spent three days and three nights working on the manuscript at home, and the house was too messy to read.

He remembered it clearly.

So a snail girl came to the house?

……

No, it must be the way he opened the door was wrong.

Lu Ran walked out the door.

Close the door and open it again.

Lu Ran believed in the reality before him.

But he still couldn't figure out what was going on.

Has a thief entered the house?

Lu Ran checked around the house and found that no valuables were missing from the house.

Of course, there is nothing valuable in his house.

As a webcomic author, the most precious thing in his home is probably his computer full of manuscripts.

Seeing that his computer was still intact, Lu Ran breathed a sigh of relief.

But he was really puzzled, what was this man trying to do in his room?Do you clean up for him?

Lu Ran was in distress when the phone rang in his pocket.

He took it out and saw that it was his comic editor who called him to urge him to write.

Lu Ran became obsessed with drawing comics when he was studying in University. It was originally just his hobby, but was accidentally discovered by his roommate, who encouraged him to publish it on the popular web comic serial platform at that time.

Lu Ran never thought that his comics would become popular on the platform overnight, and even sold the copyright.

When the comics were the hottest, many bookstores put his comics in the most prominent positions.

The popularity of comics remains high. After graduating from university, Lu Ran plans to develop his hobby into a job, so now he lives a life of writing manuscripts at home every day.

But no one expected that Lu Ran would suddenly be hospitalized for a month.

Without a manuscript, the serialized comics will naturally be discontinued.

There are a lot of bad comments on the Internet, not only urging to update, but also saying that the manga author is irresponsible, not updating, unfinished, and there are bad comments asking for a refund.

So Lu Ran felt guilty when he saw the call from the editor.

He bravely picked up the phone and said, "Editor Xu, hello..."

However, there was no blame that Lu Ran expected.

"Lu Ran, why are you hospitalized?" A strange woman's voice was on the opposite side, with a very concerned tone.

"you are?"

"It's like this. This was originally Editor Xu's work phone number, but he left. So I will be your new editor in the future, Cheng Yiran."

Lu Ran hesitated for a while, then said: "...Hello, Programmer, please take care of me from now on."

Lu Ran thought, this may be the editor with the best temper.

If it were Xu Bian, he would have been pinned against the wall and hammered hundreds of times.

"I heard that you were hit on the head, are you okay now?...I mean, there are no sequelae left? For example, did you forget something?"

I have to say that Editor Cheng's voice sounded very gentle, and it sounded like a spring breeze.

However, Lu Ran was thinking distressedly at this time.

Why does everyone keep saying that his head was smashed and that he lost his memory?

"Hey?"

Lu Ran was shocked, and quickly responded: "No, Programmer, I'm fine now, and I've fully recovered."

"That's good, I can't find you for a month, but I'm so anxious, which hospital are you in now?" Editor Cheng continued to ask.

"I'm out of the hospital."

"Then let's come out and meet, and talk about your outstanding manuscript by the way."

The one who should come still can't hide.

A few days later, after Lu Ran went to the hospital to remove the gauze from his head, he made an appointment with editor Cheng Yiran to meet at a certain western restaurant.

After the two met, they exchanged friendly greetings first, and then Editor Cheng went straight to the point: "Do you know that there is a film and television company that intends to buy the film and television copyright of your comics?"

"?" Lu Ran was a little surprised.

After waking up from a coma for a month, there is still such a good thing.

"So no matter what, you have to update to the end within two months." Editor Cheng pushed a paper comic to Lu Ran.

"Updated to the end?"

Lu Ran was a little flustered, he didn't know what the editor was talking about, he didn't remember drawing this comic.

"Yes."

The editor said: "Don't think about delaying the manuscript, this time it really won't work. Also, you haven't updated it for a long time. If you don't update it again, you can't meet the update amount required by our website, and you will have to pay the website a large amount of liquidated damages. "

"Don't blame me for not reminding you."

"what?!"

Lu Ran realized the seriousness of the matter, picked up the manga, he flipped through a few pages, the more something went wrong.

What the hell... what is this cartoon about?

Is this manga written by him?

Why don't you have any impression?

He glanced at the manga title.

"He Ran's Cultivation of Immortals"

What the hell?

Lu Ran pushed the manga away, "This is not my manga, you took it wrong."

"Are you kidding? This is your famous work! How could I take it by mistake!" Cheng Yiran turned to the first page of the manga, and there were two large characters signed on it.

[Lu Ran. 】

Lu Ran confirmed that it was indeed his own autograph.

How can this be?He has no impression at all!

"Did you forget? He Ran is the protagonist of your comic. He was written badly by you, but you killed him a few months ago. The hot searches on the Internet are all hot, so you agreed to update it." Give readers a HE ending. Have you forgotten such an important thing?"

Editor Cheng said excitedly.

"..." Lu Ran was silent.

He is really not impressed.

At this time, a waiter came over to serve them coffee, just in time to hear Editor Cheng's long speech, he seemed to be stunned, and then looked at Lu Ran.

Regarding the matter of the contract, there was someone nearby, so it was not easy for Cheng Yiran to continue talking.

But the waiter didn't leave for a long time. Editor Cheng only urged: "Just put down the coffee, thank you."

……

The waiter didn't seem to hear what she said, and stood there in a daze.

"Just let it go, thank you,"

Editor Cheng couldn't help but look up at the strange waiter.

The waiter suddenly came back to his senses, nodded, and put the coffee in front of Lu Ran.

The waiter picked up the menu, crossed out the list, and was about to leave.

Editor Cheng suddenly realized something.

She flipped through the manga, looked at the waiter again, and couldn't help but marvel in a low voice: "Huh? Lu Ran, this person looks like the protagonist of your manga..."

She thought that the film and television company was planning to cast Lu Ran's comics, and she found that this waiter was a very suitable casting.

Too bad it's a waiter.

Editor Cheng looked him up and down.

Hearing what editor Cheng said, Lu Ran raised his face to look at it, and compared it with the protagonist on the cover of the comic.

Editor Cheng's words are not exaggerating at all. This waiter looks like the protagonist in the cartoon, even the location of the light mole at the corner of his eye is exactly the same.

"Do you two know each other?" She couldn't help asking.

Lu Ran looked up at the male waiter.

The waiter pursed his lips, a little embarrassed.

Lu Ran's eyes fixed on the waiter's face.

It looks familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere.

It seems to be in a hospital.

It was the little brother who gave him the fruit basket.

Lu Ran smiled and said to the editor: "I don't know each other, I only met once."

The waiter hurriedly took out a note pad from his pocket.

"What's wrong?" Lu Ran asked the editor.

When the waiter heard what Lu Ran said, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he took a pen to write on the paper, the tip of the pen trembling.

"I'm sorry I'm sorry."

At this time, the manager of the restaurant came over and politely explained to Lu Ran and Cheng Yiran: "I'm really sorry, our waiter is dumb and can't speak, if there is something wrong, I apologize to you. "

"Oh, that's not necessary, there is nothing wrong with him..." Lu Ran wanted to explain for the waiter.

"It's fine if you don't have one. I wish you a pleasant meal."

The manager of the restaurant directly ignored the second half of Lu Ran's words, and hurriedly dragged the little dumb waiter away, scolding while dragging: "You dumb, do you know how many dishes are waiting for you in the back kitchen? Why are you just being lazy here!? If you do this again tomorrow, you'll get out of here! Do you know!"

The conversation between Lu Ran and Editor Cheng went straight to the closing of the restaurant.

In the end, they came to a conclusion that with Lu Ran's current economic strength, he absolutely couldn't afford such a huge liquidated damages.

So no matter whether Lu Ran can recall the plot of this comic in the end, even if it is made up randomly, he has to bite the bullet and continue to draw.

Walking on the road, Lu Ran sighed worriedly, kicked a stone away, and said in a low voice, "It's easy to say."

Drawing comics is so easy for editor Cheng to say. It’s like encountering a math problem that you can’t do during an exam. Apart from writing an explanation at the beginning, what else can you make up later?

Lu Ran slowly wandered all the way to the downstairs of the community.

This time he brought the key card and made a beep on the sensor.

"Wait." Uncle Security stopped Lu Ran.

"What's wrong?" Lu Ran asked strangely.

Uncle Security pointed out the gate.

Lu Ran looked over, saw the familiar thin figure from last night again, and asked, "Why is that man here again?"

"I don't know either." The security guard looked very distressed, and said, "He just came here not long ago. He said he was looking for the owner of 508. Is he your friend?"

"Looking for me?" Lu Ran narrowed his eyes and looked for a while, "Have you got the wrong person, I saw him there last night, but he didn't look for me, I don't know him."

"Go and have a look. He insists on seeing you, and won't leave if he doesn't see you. I can't handle it..." Uncle Security was a little embarrassed.

"alright."

Although Lu Ran was not very happy, it was not good to make it difficult for the security guards.

He walked over helplessly, patted the man on the shoulder, and said, "What do you want from me?"

The boy was originally drooping his head, but when he heard Lu Ran's voice, he trembled obviously before raising his head.

Lu Ran recognized that it was the dumb waiter in the western restaurant, "It's you again, what a coincidence?"

The little mute looked at Lu Ran, and the tears in his clear eyes fell down.

Lu Ran was immediately frightened by his appearance.

what happened?

Why did this person cry out of nowhere?
