[HP Tomb Raiders Notes] Zhaoming

Chapter 17 Flirting and Anti-Teasing

A small figure came out from the alley, and the girl picked up the note in her hand and looked at it, as if she was trying to make sure of something.Then she nodded affirmatively, and searched for them one by one along the street, and finally stopped in front of an old-fashioned residential building, and reached out to knock on the door.

After a while, just when the girl suspected that no one lived in this old building, the old-fashioned heavy wooden door creaked, and a gloomy man looked at the young girl in front of him vigilantly behind the door. , the man looks to be in his thirties.

"Who are you looking for?" The other party's tone was quite impatient.

"Excuse me, does Zhang Qiling live here?" Jiang Lin felt the unkindness emanating from the other party, and asked a little uncertainly.

The man looked puzzled after hearing this, but was interrupted by a familiar voice just as he was about to say something.

"Are you here? Come with me." A tall and thin figure appeared behind the door. He opened the door and motioned for her to follow.

Jiang Lin nodded to the man behind him, and then walked towards the street she passed with Zhang Qiling.She felt a searching gaze behind her, and the door creaked and closed again.

It's just after lunch time, and the afterglow of the setting sun slantly sprinkles on the mottled old stone wall. From time to time, one or two small vendors pass by while yelling and carrying their loads.Jiang Lin's legs were not as long as the opponent's, and the person in front was walking in a hurry, so that for a while, she was only focused on catching up with the opponent's pace and forgot the purpose of this trip.So when the other party stopped suddenly, she happened to step on that shadow.

"..."

Jiang Lin put his hands behind his back, feeling a little embarrassed for some reason.But Zhang Qiling had already turned around and looked at her, as if waiting for her to speak first.Only then did the girl realize that the two of them had come to a quiet canal. A woman was washing clothes with her child, and a voice or two could be heard from time to time.

She coughed lightly, "It's like this. I have a few friends going out together tomorrow, and I might trouble you. I wonder if you're free?"

The man didn't say anything at first, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "When?"

"Three o'clock in the afternoon." She didn't expect the other party to be so straightforward. "But before that, I'm afraid we have to unify our rhetoric, otherwise we may be exposed."

After seeing the other party nodding, she continued to add: "We met in Taoqiu three months ago, which is a village of wizards. This time, I let you come because of the summer gathering, a traditional festival for wizards. And you were there before?" The girl paused at this point.

"Hangzhou, an antique shop guy." Zhang Qiling said cooperatively.

"I work in an antique shop in Hangzhou. By the way, you have to remember, I'm a temporary Auror team member." Poor, it's been almost a month since we separated, and I still can't get along as well as others.Jiang Lin is a little bit emotional about his bumpy job search, and he doesn't know when he will be able to become a full-time employee.

"Are you really an employee of an antique shop? Then what do you usually sell in your shop? Where do you usually buy your goods?" She asked again as if she suddenly remembered something.Hearing that the antique business is quite profitable, she scanned the other party's clothes, black pants and a gray hoodie, and a pair of dark blue canvas shoes on her feet.

Uh, apart from having a more Zhou Zheng face, I don't see any advantages in other aspects.But I have to admit that the man in front of me wore ordinary to rustic clothes to give him a sense of big name. Sure enough, the clothes were like floating clouds, and his appearance was forever.

A trace of disgust flashed in Zhang Qiling's eyes when he heard about the purchase, but the girl was immersed in her own wild thoughts at the time, so she didn't notice it at all.Maybe it was because the other party was silent for too long, she was a little at a loss, and was thinking about whether she had talked too much, so she heard the other party say: "I will stay here for a while, call if you have anything-do you use the phone? "

"It's not often used, and usually you can only call from your side. Speaking of which, how did you get to Hangzhou? You were still there a while ago-" Remembering that she had cast an oblivion spell on him before, she felt a little guilty, and quickly stopped the conversation .

"I followed the guy who came to collect things in the village." Zhang Qiling said flatly, as if he didn't care what the girl did before.

"That's it. I don't know much about you. Do you still remember the stilted building we went to check in that village?"

Zhang Qiling nodded.

"Except for the ancient tomb that came out together, that's all I know. Before you said you couldn't remember your name, how did you remember it? Could it be because of the spell?" The last sentence was more like she was saying it herself He said to himself, "Why don't you ask my friends tomorrow to see what they think - there is strength in numbers!"

"Okay." Zhang Qiling thought about it, and felt that there was nothing wrong.

The two of them had nothing to say for a while, the laughter of women and children came from the river opposite, the smoke from the houses not far away floated up, and only the silhouettes of houses could be seen farther away.The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the stone railing in front of you, like a quiet oil painting.She couldn't help reaching out to pick up the warm color. Unlike the scorching heat at noon, the sunlight at this time seemed softer, and the temperature falling on her palm was just right.

Zhang Qiling caught a glimpse of the girl next to him leaning on the railing, and for the first time felt that her existence was different from those he had come into contact with before.Without any precautions or calculations, they stood by the embankment and watched the scenery like true friends.

It's been a long time since I felt this emotion.

After a while, he heard the other party sigh in satisfaction: "Hey, so the scenery here is quite nice, why did you think of living here?"

"Another guy in the store." He could have said nothing, but he spoke involuntarily.

The girl turned around, looked at him, then put her hands on the railing and sat firmly on it.At this time, Zhang Qiling found that the eyes of the two were basically equal, but he didn't know why the other party did this.

"Hey, you're too tall. I have to raise my head to talk to you every time—it's much more convenient now." She moved her legs again and leaned against the stone railing, "Thank you for the previous things. I won't cast spells on you again." She tilted her head to observe the other person's face, which seemed to be better than before, and then boldly patted him on the shoulder.

The man beside him stood up straight like a pole, neither dodging nor dodging the girl's actions.

She withdrew her hand, and suddenly felt a sense of blasphemous guilt when she touched the other person just now, but fortunately he didn't avoid it, otherwise she would be embarrassed.

She jumped down in embarrassment, "That's it, I'm going back." She waved at the man, and hurried away without waiting for the man's reaction, as if she was afraid that the man would suddenly wake up and be harassed by a salty pig.

The man by the stone fence watched the other party leave silently, then turned his head and continued to be in a daze.

But the scenery remains the same, but the mood of the people watching is different.

Ginger fish brought out a plate of hot blueberry cookies. The rich and not greasy aroma permeated the living room. After placing the plate on the table, she looked up at the quartz clock next to her. The hour hand was already pointing to the middle of 2 and 3 .She looked around at the refreshments on the table, everything was ready, just about to turn around to look for a suitable coaster, a slender hand pulled her into his arms, the man looked at her pitifully and wiped her nose , with a little jam on it.The witch lowered her head shyly, avoiding the opponent's palm.

Wei Chengnan didn't care about his girlfriend's actions, "Thanks for your hard work, there have been a lot of things in the hospital recently, and you have bothered to prepare so many things."

"Actually, it's nothing. The materials are all ready-made, just a little bit of processing. I just thought that everyone was busy during the rally and didn't get together. Who would have thought that so many things happened?" She shook her head slightly, "Okay, let's not talk about this, Xiaolin and Changyan are coming soon, I will see if there is anything I need to prepare."

Wei Chengnan thought for a while, and the scene of seeing that young witch in the lively crowd that night appeared in his mind. "Speaking of Lin Ci, I have a feeling that I don't know whether I should say it or not." He looked at his girlfriend's stunned expression, and added, "I feel like she looks like your sister, but only in terms of temperament. .”

"Uh... Actually, I also feel a little strange. Every time I look at her, I feel very friendly, as if we have known each other for a long time-if I am not very good at potions, and I am sure that I have not been cast. With the Imperius Curse, I thought I was under some kind of powerful black magic." After she finished speaking, she laughed, seeing his girlfriend's finally relaxed expression, and thinking about his absurd thoughts about Lin Ci, Wei Chengnan couldn't help but laugh.

"Maybe this is the fate that Muggles often talk about. By the way, don't you and Yao Hui also hit it off? Also, don't we too..." The man said, holding her hand, and kissed it tenderly , and then looked at the other party with a smile and withdrew his hand as if being scalded, his cheeks were slightly red.With a thought in his mind, he stroked her beautiful chin lightly, just as he was about to steal a scent, when there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the side hall.

Jiang Yu woke up like a dream, and quickly pushed her boyfriend away, pretending to arrange the bouquet on the table.

"I just said that the group of old guys in the ministry are unreliable, and they still use the fireplace in what age!" Si Changyan's iconic high-pitched voice came over, and she lifted the crystal curtain of the living room, and patted the door with disgust. Floo powder left on his robes. "Not only does this stuff pollute the environment, it's also unhygienic at all—look at the dust on my body!"

"Okay, okay, next time you have to go to the fireplace, you'll be a troll, okay?" Yao Hui was obviously used to hearing the other party's chatter along the way, and finally couldn't help but go back after hanging up his robe.

"That's right! I want to use the fireplace again, I just...wait a minute," she licked the words carefully as if she had come to her senses, "No, why do I feel that you are scolding me? How can you scold me? Is it a troll?!"

I'm really scolding you.Jiang Yu added with a sigh in her heart, taking care of Yao Hui for a while by the way.

Sure enough, Si Changyan took off her long robe and threw it on the sofa, turned around to stop the other party, and seriously retorted: "You are the troll! I am much better-looking than the troll!"

The latter and Jiang Yu looked at each other, and then the two of them showed a tacit expression of "it's true".Wei Chengnan was a little uncomfortable just now because his good things were interrupted, but now he can't help but chuckle.However, before he could be proud for too long, Si Changyan grabbed Jiang Yu's sleeve, "Hey, hurry up and take care of your people, did I say something wrong just now? Are you judging me, did I say something wrong?"

"Okay, my beautiful and lovely Miss Changyan, please calm your temper a little bit, and sit down and have a cup of tea, okay?" Jiang Yu took her hand and led the little witch to the table to sit down , skillfully poured a cup of hot black tea.The lingering tea fragrance wafted in the air, Si Changyan wiped her hands with a paper towel, happily picked up the small and exquisite bone china cup, and seriously tasted the tea fragrance.She looked around and asked suspiciously: "Why hasn't Mumu come yet? Doesn't she know your Floo address?"

"Sorry, sorry, we're late!" The girl opened the crystal curtain, followed by a tall and thin young man.Wei Chengnan took a slight look at the other party. The man had delicate features. He was wearing a white casual long T and light-colored trousers, giving him a very reassuring feeling.

As if he felt that someone was watching him, the man looked at him sideways, and he looked at the man generously, with no embarrassment of being smashed on his face.

The young man just looked at it, didn't pay much attention to his sizing up, and quickly turned back.

The kid is quite calm.Wei Chengnan thought to himself.

At this moment, Jiang Lin was being pulled over by Si Changyan to take advantage of her. She finally seized the opportunity to break free from her clutches, and sneaked up behind her mother to hide, and the latter also quickly stopped the witch's harassing behavior. After each made a brief introduction, everyone Finally sat down.

"I'm sorry, because we didn't think carefully before—now Chen Cang stipulates that wizards can't leave the area of ​​the magic world at will, so we can only change the location temporarily." Jiang Yu gently explained the sudden change of the plan, "This is just It’s a family gathering, everyone don’t feel restrained—especially Xiao Zhang, I heard that you are Xiao Lin’s boyfriend, how did you know each other?”

"Puff...cough cough..." The witch whose name was called choked on her tea. She took out a tissue and quickly wiped off the water stains on her hands. While lamenting her mother's unexpected words, she was also worried about the teammate who had just dragged her in. Will it drop the chain at a critical moment.

Zhang Qiling looked at the girl who was in a hurry, and then said: "We met in Taoqiu. Some time ago, she wanted to change her job, so she came to Chencang. She is not familiar with the place. Thanks to you for taking care of her these days, I really trouble you gone."

"Ahem..." Jiang Lin bit half of the blueberry biscuit and sprayed it all out. She took out a paper towel and brushed the biscuit crumbs into a pile, then threw it into the trash can under her feet.Then her chin was raised, and she stared at the man's long fingers rubbing against the corner of her mouth with wide eyes full of horror, "Look, I'm always so confused." Unresolved tenderness.

"..."

She caught a glimpse of her mother's scrutinizing gaze, Si Changyan's understanding expression, Yao Hui's calm eyes, and the slightly teasing expression of the only man present. A big-eyed move.She calmly broke away from the other party, picked up the cup and drank a big mouthful of tea, rinsed her mouth, then smiled sweetly at Zhang Qiling, so coquettish that she wanted to shiver, "Qi Ling is really annoying, always teasing people!" She Satisfied to see a trace of surprise flashing in the man's eyes.

"Ahem...Xiao Lin, didn't you ask me about the Forgetting Curse last time?" Yao Hui, the academic woman with the most sense of justice, finally said, "You said that Xiao Zhang was under the curse, but after a while, he remembered the past. Something happened, right?"

After getting an affirmative answer, she continued: "I went back and looked up some information—Jiang Yu also helped me analyze the factors of whether there was a potion—but you said that he had no contact with such items." She took out A document was passed to Jiang Lin.

After the girl took it, she turned it carefully, and Zhang Qiling turned her head to look at the object in the opponent's hand. It was full of complex letters, formulas and the like, mixed with some Chinese characters.I have to say that although I know some foreign languages, I still can't understand him in front of me.Feeling his gaze, the girl suddenly looked up at him and asked a strange question.

"Are you afraid of pain?"

The author has something to say:

I was nearly collapsed by the re-examination recently, so I typed out this chapter when I was unconscious, and I will just read it.

The heroine is still too young, but the little brother has lived for decades, and he has never eaten pork and seen pigs running hahaha. . .Well.

Don't worry, this is a Qingshui essay, and I can't write it anyway.

I said that the English teacher who was writing a mixed fanfic result interview laughed so hard that he almost fell on the table. Is there a problem with this?
