Quick Transmigration: Forbidden to Covet Beautiful NPCs

Wu Tongxue's gaze faltered, landing on the moon, which was almost completely obscured.

The small lamp under the eaves emitted a warm white glow, which fell on his side.

The darkness ahead almost blurred his expression, making it indistinct; it was somewhere between black and white, but his lips were pursed, and a sharp aura suddenly appeared.

The wind rustled his clothes as he stood still, holding up his binoculars and looking in a certain direction.

Seeing Professor Wu like this, Meng Meng paused for a moment.

As the weather turned cold, Meng Meng came out to let everyone in, but seeing Professor Wu like this, she could only stand aside and keep him company.

Hu Wan stood beside Wu Tongxue. "Teacher, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Wu Tongxue put down the binoculars, her expression returning to its familiar gentleness.

Noticing Meng Meng, she smiled and said, "It's cold outside, let's go inside first."

Wu Tongxue trusted her eyes and was certain she hadn't misjudged.

A sliver of red light suddenly appeared on the edge of the moon; it was no illusion, but for the moment, I had no particular thoughts.

Everything at present falls within the realm of science.

If it's not scientific...

Wu Tongxue felt a headache coming on whenever she thought about the progress of her mission. Would she ever be able to complete it in her lifetime?

It's too early to draw conclusions now; let's observe further.

There is a restaurant on the first floor, but it's not practical for the small business owner to cook for himself, so Lu Yuan arranged for two people to help in the kitchen.

They had been outside for too long, and Lu Yuan cast a questioning look at his teammate Meng Meng.

Hu Wan looked slightly worried, "This rain is really heavy. I don't know if it will stop tomorrow, or if it will affect our journey."

Meng Meng gently shook her head at the captain, indicating that it was nothing serious and she could report back to the captain later.

The sky was filled with terrifying lightning and piled-up dark clouds. Few people noticed the moon, and almost no one noticed its unusual appearance. Even if they did notice it, they would just assume it was an illusion and not take it to heart.

Wu Tongxue caught a glimpse of it through a gap in the dark clouds.

After thinking for a moment, he reminded everyone, "Tell everyone to avoid contact with the rain as much as possible."

This rain is really strange. He can't see anything unusual about it, and he doesn't know what kind of impact it will have. It's always better to be cautious.

Lu Yuan immediately told his teammates, "Go to the kitchen and remind them not to come into contact with the rainwater outside."

"Professor Wu, is there anything else we need to be careful about?" Lu Yuan had great trust in Wu Tongxue.

Being trusted is a gratifying thing, and the smile on his lips grew even warmer. "Not for now. Captain Lu will need to consider other aspects further."

The heavy rain continued and showed no signs of stopping at 10 p.m.

With nothing to do, Wu Tongxue decided to rest.

Xie Lang was still downstairs. He went to the double bedroom alone. There were two beds and all the necessary toiletries.

After taking a shower, he dried his hair and stood by the window looking at the street scene outside.

The streetlights were bright, the rain and mist were thick, and the shops on both sides of the clean and wide retro street were closed, with not a single pedestrian in sight.

A few lanterns still stubbornly emitted their light, swaying back and forth in the wind, their tassels dancing in the night.

It does have a touch of decadence.

Turning around and going to the bedside, I had just lifted the blanket when I heard a knocking sound.

It wasn't a knocking sound.

Wu Tongxue and Xin both missed a beat.

In the blink of an eye, I saw a face pressed against the glass where I had just been standing, its icy blue eyes filled with excitement.

The owner of the eye was equally excited, slapping his hand repeatedly against the glass window.

After thinking for a moment, Wu Tongxue stepped forward in her slippers and opened the window. A cool breeze blew in, mixed with the smells from outside.

Lan Kong, quite unabashedly, climbed in through the window with a lithe and agile movements.

"Who are you?" Wu Tongxue asked, though it was clear he had no intention of attacking.

When she caught the familiar scent again, Wu Tongxue remained calm, only curious about his appearance and identity.

A silver-white high ponytail, ice-blue eyes, a youthful appearance... the hair is clearly not dyed, and the eyes are not colored contact lenses, but he is probably not a foreigner.

Lan Kong's eyes crinkled into a smile, clear and bright. "I'm the one you raised."

Wu Tongxue: "?"

"I'm so hungry~" Lan Kong said pitifully, like a lost dog, her gaze fixed on the person in front of her.

Upon waking up, Lan Kong instinctively ran out of that place, only to find that he had no food outside.

Having no appetite for anything, unable to bear the hunger, it turned around and followed the smell.

Master, I'm hungry, I need food.

These words were written all over Lan Kong's face: it was clearly not going to work.

Wu Tongxue softened and handed him a pack of compressed biscuits and a bottle of mineral water, saying, "Eat this first."

Lan Kong glanced at it but didn't take it, continuing to stare at him longingly.

You don't want to eat this?

Wu Tongxue took out some snacks from her backpack, but Lan Kong still refused them.

"What did you eat before?"

Lan Kong recalled blankly, shook his head, and whispered, "I don't know."

Looking at his unusual appearance, Wu Tongxue beckoned to him, "Come and sit down."

Sure enough, my wrist was very cold, not at all like a normal person's body temperature.

Upon checking the pulse again, it was found to be nonexistent.

What kind of species is this?

Fortunately, Wu Tongxue was already used to it, and he wouldn't be surprised if one day a little elf appeared.

The problem now is, what exactly does he need to eat?

"Don't move." Wu Tongxue stopped Lan Kong from playing with his hand and instead placed her hand on his forehead.

Use some of your own strength to investigate.

They look silly and easy to fool, but I never expected them to have such strong energy inside their bodies, especially in their brains.

She conjured a ball of spiritual energy with her hand and handed it to him, saying, "Eat this."

Lan Kong's eyes lit up. This time, he wasn't picky anymore and happily ate the spiritual energy ball, even letting out a satisfied burp.

"Alright, go back to where you came from." Seeing that he had finished eating, Wu Tongxue told him to leave.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain to Lu Yuan, and it would also be inconvenient for him to keep it with him. Once they arrived at the central base, there would be no time to take care of it.

Lan Kong pretended not to hear, and quietly turned his head away.

He wouldn't leave; he believed that only by staying with his master could he have food to eat.

"I can't take you with me right now, so be good."

Lan Kong shook his head vigorously, sat in the chair and poked his fingers, refusing to look at him.

She muttered her complaints in a low voice while stealing glances, "There's no food outside, and no one to care for them. It's so pitiful to be homeless."

Wu Tongxue swallowed back the words she was about to say and glanced at the torrential rain outside.

Lan Kong suddenly suggested, "I'll follow them secretly, I promise we won't be discovered!"

Of all the people in this group, he disliked, or even hated, anyone except his master. He only wanted to be close to his master and get fed by him.

"Please promise me, I'm easy to take care of."

"You've always taken such good care of me, you would never bear to abandon me."

Lan Kong looked completely unconcerned, grinning foolishly.

Wu Tongxue knew for certain that she had never seen him before. "Why did you say you were raised by me?"

"Because the first person I saw was you, Master," Lan Kong said matter-of-factly.

"Feel it, it's the one you raised."

Lan Kong pulled Wu Tongxue's hand and placed it on his collarbone. It was cool and smooth, and felt very nice to the touch.

"!!!" Wu Tongxue's pupils dilated, and her usually perfect expression crumbled slightly.

Lan Kong even seemed to be guiding his hand downwards, asking earnestly, "Did you find it?"
