Pure Love General Administration Scum Transformation Center

There was no one in the empty teaching building.Chu Ge led Lu Zhinan downstairs, but stopped when he reached the door.

Looking up, there is an endless rain curtain. The whole city is shrouded in the sudden torrential rain. The rainwater on the ground is gradually converging, probably because the drainage system is not done well. Right now, there are almost no people's ankles. .

They are still standing in a slightly higher building and have not gone out.Once stepped on, it must be a corner of water.

Chu Ge glanced at Lu Zhinan, the child didn't understand why he stopped and was looking at the umbrella in his hand.

He opened the umbrella, handed it to Lu Zhinan, and squatted down: "Come up."

Lu Zhinan was startled all of a sudden, and grabbed his hand to get him up: "Brother, I can walk by myself."

Chu Ge said: "Don't be naughty, there is so much water on the ground, come up quickly and don't dawdle, it's getting dark."

Lu Zhinan said softly, "Brother."

Chu Ge narrowed his eyes: "Zhi Nan, hurry up, my brother is also very tired from squatting."

The child didn't argue any more, and leaned over obediently, with his arms around his neck. Chu Ge's back sank, and he stood up from the ground with his feet.

"Hold it, be careful, don't fall."

"Ah."

The child looked thin and small, and it was not light at all when he carried it on his back. Chu Ge let out a sigh of relief, carried his younger brother on his back, and walked towards home step by step.His ankles were plunged into the icy cold rain, but the child on his back was warm and soft.

"elder brother."

"Ah."

"elder brother"

"what's wrong."

The child didn't speak, but his arms were tightly wrapped around him, like a button, firmly fastened in front of him.

Lu Zhinan tried his best to hold the big umbrella, trying to protect his brother from the wind and rain, but there were still strands of rain passing through the umbrella and falling on the two of them.He lowered his head and wanted to look, but he couldn't see anything, except for the deep rainwater on the ground, and the slender and fair neck that was pressed against his cheek.

A wooden pendant was attached to a thin black cord, which went straight into the clothes.

"elder brother"

"Little Lu Zhinan! I'm here to seriously warn you, don't blow air into your brother's neck, be careful not to drop you!"

"Oh"

After being caught, he responded in a low voice, saying that he would not commit the crime again.After a while, he was about to move again, and breathed out quietly towards the exposed neck.

The voice of "Zhi Nan" was a little helpless.

Lu Zhinan giggled, and the clear laughter of the child echoed in the dark rain, piercing through the thick and oppressive condensation.Like a koala, he hugged his brother's thin back, as if he owned his whole world.

After arriving home, Lu Zhinan was alright, Chu Ge's trousers were completely soaked, and there was water on the ground every step of the way.

The two boiled hot water, took a bath, and wiped their hair. They worked hard for most of the day.Taking advantage of the gap, Lu Zhinan boiled ginger soup, drank a bowl of hot soup, and finally felt the chill in his limbs and bones dissipated.

Lu Zhinan took out his schoolbag and grabbed his notebook to do his homework.Chu Ge was sitting next to him, and he didn't turn on the TV, just grabbed a book and read it.He was extremely sleepy, he closed his eyes for a while, and forced himself to wake up again. He repeated this over and over again, but fell asleep unknowingly.

After a long time, it seemed that someone was pulling him, Chu Ge woke up in a daze, and listened to Lu Zhinan, "Brother, I'm done writing, you go to bed and sleep."

Chu Ge said "Yes", and went to bed with Lu Zhinan, the child hugged him with his soft arms, and after a while, there was the sound of even and long breathing.

Probably because he just squinted for a while, Chu Ge was not so sleepy at this time.He held Lu Zhinan's wrist, and he was familiar with drawing the black fluff from the child's body into his own body. He had done this many times, and now he was so familiar with it that even the black fluff counterattacked had no effect on him. , Just like this repeatedly sawing, and finally led away these few strands of black fluff.

The black fluff on the fingertips was forcibly pulled by him and condensed into an ink-colored flower. After trying, it still couldn't be expelled from the body.

As expected, there was nothing unexpected, Chu Ge pinched his fingertips, tired, and finally fell asleep.

When he got up the next morning, the rain had finally subsided a little, so Chu Ge sent Lu Zhinan to school first, and then went to pick up a pole and basket from the proprietress's shop.

The cold skewers inside had been stored until the next day, and they were not kept in the refrigerator. Even if they were fooled, they might still be sold, and Chu Ge didn't intend to fool them.He asked where the bucket of boiling water was, and without any hesitation, he brushed the remaining ones off the bamboo sticks and threw them in.

The proprietress watched silently as he finished, and when she was washing the bamboo sticks with clean water at the end, she asked him if he wanted to rent a place in the store and sell the things here instead of always carrying baskets Running around, coming and going in the wind and rain.

Chu Ge was stunned for a moment.

He didn't have the idea of ​​renting a shop at first, but now it's winter, the temperature is dropping, the weather is changing and unpredictable, and he doesn't know when it will rain or snow.Later, he also had the idea of ​​renting a storefront, but the minimum rent was three months, and the gross receipts he had accumulated in the few days he set up a stall could not cover three months' rent at once.

Even if he asked someone to make an IOU, he didn't know anyone, so he abandoned the idea, but he didn't expect it to be brought up now.

Chu Ge couldn't help hesitating, but he softened under the kind smile of the proprietress. He could clearly feel the kindness of the middle-aged aunt, as well as the faint thought lingering in it: This child is not easy, if he can take care of him, he will take care of him. One hand, it's not particularly difficult.

After discussing for a while, the two decided temporarily that Chu Ge would occupy a piece of land in this breakfast shop, sell his snacks and snacks, and pay a rent of 500 yuan a month.

After the conversation, Chu Ge felt unrealistic and unreal. He tried hard to recall the scene of the conversation just now, feeling a little dazed in his heart.

The system said, "Chu Sansui, I thought you wouldn't agree."

Chu Ge said: "I can feel that Auntie Meng is not malicious. When she made suggestions to me, her whole body exuded a kind of warmth, just like a warm handbag." The thoughts from her are warm and can be approached. , which makes it hard to refuse.

but

Chu Ge was a little confused: "Why do I feel it?"

It wasn't like the violent black catkin energy he felt with his supernatural powers, nor was it the ease and comfort of his speech and manner, but like a thought that came from his heart, like ideas, like spiritual energy, but Auntie Meng just an ordinary person.

The system also felt a little strange: "Did you have an illusion?"

Chu Ge breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head: "Maybe."

For the time being, he pressed it down and didn't think about it, but at night, he finally realized that it was not an illusion.

The passers-by hurriedly did not bring him any unusual feelings until he picked up Lu Zhinan from the teaching building.

Seeing him, the child's eyes lit up, and his whole body was almost filled with satisfaction. He ran over and hugged Chu Ge tightly, like a warm fireball pounced on him.

The feeling during the day reappeared, but this time, his whole body was surrounded by warmth, as if he had fallen into a steaming hot spring, which was extremely hot and intense.

That was the feeling Lu Zhinan gave him, clean, pure, and extremely warm.He couldn't help but use his ability to peek into Lu Zhinan's body. Those black catkins were still condensed and hovering, like a dormant beast, cold and ferocious.

Two completely different feelings came together in his body, but Lu Zhinan didn't know anything about it.He happily grabbed Chu Ge's hand, and stuffed his little fingers into the gaps one by one. Finally, looking at the stagnant water outside, he announced that he could walk back together today, so he didn't want his brother to continue reciting.

He was so happy, a sense of warmth flowed into his body along the interlocking fingers, as if the whole heart had been soaked in hot water, full of warmth.

Chu Ge took Lu Zhinan's hand and walked home step by step.

The wind and rain were like darkness, but they couldn't dispel the warm current from Lu Zhinan.

He has some confusion, which is something he has never encountered before.First it came from the proprietress who released kindness, and then from his brother who was dependent on him for life. This time, I couldn't tell myself that it was an illusion.

In the original world line, Lu Zhibei had never experienced such a thing. At that time, Lu Zhibei's supernatural ability had already become the Thunder Element.And back to Chu Ge, his abilities are purified, aren't they?

After that, Chu Ge's stall took root in the breakfast shop. With a place, snacks that were inconvenient to buy together before can all be used now.He bought kraft paper, groped around at home, made glutinous rice paper, inserted candied haws, and stood it outside the shop.I made cold skewers again, and took a steel wire bowl, which is convenient for cooking hot and sour noodles.

Originally, there were only congee, pickled vegetables, and stewed vegetables in the store, but now there are some new types.

With a fixed place, more ingredients can be purified and processed every day. Chu Ge is busy cooking hot and sour noodles, stringing cold skewers, and candied haws every day. There are many.

He basically stayed in the store every day until Lu Zhinan left before school. It was almost winter and it was getting dark early. He was worried that Lu Zhinan was walking alone on the road.And as long as Chu Ge was delayed for a while, Lu Zhinan might run back by himself and get busy in the kitchen. Chu Ge expected Lu Zhinan to study hard, but he didn't want him to spend too much time in these places at night.

The two missed it several times. After Lu Zhinan was told by him, he didn't run away, and obediently waited for him to pick him up at the school gate.

It's time for this day, Chu Ge counted and counted, and seeing how many bunches of candied haws were left, he was about to take them off and take them away as snacks for Lu Zhinan on the way home. Before he took them off the broom, there was The diners came and asked for candied haws.

With a new face, a tall man, and a burly figure, he stood in front of Chu Ge's glass cabinet, and suddenly it was dark and dark, as if all the light was blocked.

Chu Ge was inexplicably uneasy, and subconsciously put on a smiling face: "There are only a few strings, which one do you want?"

With a finger pointing, the visitor selected the bunch with the largest hawthorn fruit.

Chu Ge took out the glutinous rice paper and wrapped it, suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, and handed it over carefully.

He hurriedly wiped his hands and told Aunt Meng that he had to leave first.

For some reason, he only heard his heart beating "thump-thump-thump", and he always had a premonition, as if something bad was about to happen.

Chu Ge subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but he still couldn't.

The visitor took a bite of the candied haws, chewed them slowly, and slowly shifted his steadfast gaze towards him.

The strange feeling not long ago reappeared again, and Chu Ge felt a thought that was determined not to be called kind, and it locked on him tightly.

And the source of the idea of ​​spying and exploring lies in the diner in front of him.

He is not so much a human being as a cold, ruthless beast waiting to move.

The visitor asked, "Is it made of hawthorn?"

Chu Ge reluctantly nodded: "Yes."

The visitor took another bite, chewing slowly and earnestly, as if savoring the taste carefully.

It was obviously the most common movements of swallowing and chewing, but Chu Ge looked at it with inexplicable creeps, and a stream of cold sweat ran down his back inexplicably. It's not the bunch of candied haws, but him.

The visitor's eyes still stayed on him, and after taking that bite, he seemed to smile at him, but there was no smile in his eyes.He looked at the crystal clear, red and lovely candied hawthorn in his hand, as if he was sighing: "I have never eaten such a clean hawthorn."

For a split second, Chu Ge was startled. He finally understood where the problem was.

So clean!
