【Zhou Ye】The Foot of Time

TARDIS may look small on the outside, but there is always a castle inside.This is not the first time Zhou Zekai has entered Lord Grim, but it is the first time Zhou Zekai has spent the night in Lord Grim. After all, they have booked hotels in previous trips or did not need to stay overnight at all. He has never been in Lord Grim’s living quarters. ——Most of the time, they only stopped at the cab when they entered the door, so after washing up, Zhou Zekai found the kitchen after going the wrong way once.

Zhou Zekai's Tadis didn't have a kitchen, but when he entered Ye Xiu's kitchen, he found that there was not much difference between Ye Xiu's kitchen and whether it was there or not. Because of the fact that "you can't die anyway if you eat anything", Zhou Zekai had to go out to pack a porridge with preserved egg and lean meat.

Today, Lord Grim has turned it into a vending machine again. Zhou Zekai has seen it many times, and he can be sure that this is undoubtedly Lord Grim's favorite shape, and he will decide what to put on the shelves according to his mood or the environment at that time.Knowing this characteristic, Zhou Zekai deliberately went around to take a look——

Rows of condoms.

It seems that Lord Grim liked the way the two of them had sex last night.

There are not many breakfast shops near where Lord Grim stopped, but it was not easy to find porridge with preserved eggs and lean meat. In the end, Zhou Zekai went to KFC.When he came back, Ye Xiu had already woken up. Zhou Zekai rushed his bleary-eyed lover to wash up, put the porridge on the dining table, and planned to pour Ye Xiu a cup of warm water to warm his stomach first.

After setting the temperature for the water dispenser, Zhou Zekai casually took the cup in the shape of an eight-pointed star next to it to pick it up.The warm water rose slowly in the cup, and correspondingly, the pattern printed on the cup appeared bit by bit—in fact, when the pattern was only a quarter of the bottom exposed, Zhou Zekai knew what was printed on it, which caused him to almost tremble and let the water splash on his hands.

After all, he was too familiar with what was displayed on the cup.Oh, to be precise, it's not a pattern, it just looks like it to people on earth. After all, it is composed of a bunch of circles, straight lines and black dots, which will only make people feel that it is a weird and complicated pattern. logo.

That is the script of Gallifrey, which Zhou Zekai learned first, the script of his home planet——

his name.

"What's wrong with Xiao Zhou? Why are you holding the cup in a daze?" Ye Xiu entered the kitchen in loose pajamas, saw Zhou Zekai holding the steaming cup as if he had been pressed the pause button, so he naturally took the cup from his hand He took it and took a few sips.

"...my name." Zhou Zekai, who had recovered from his strength, pointed to the cup and opened his mouth.

"That's right, your cup." Ye Xiu held it up, "A birthday gift that has been used for hundreds of years, there is no one else but you."

Zhou Zekai felt that he had to digest it well, after all, it was the cup he and he used since they were young...as long as they went home, they would...use it to drink...everyday...

Watching Ye Xiu stick his lips to the rim of the cup again, Zhou Zekai suddenly felt like a pot of boiling water, with steam gushing out.Obviously, he and Ye Xiu shared tableware before, and even ate the same food, but... this feeling is really different.

Although he didn't know what kind of mentality his future self had in giving Ye Xiu the cup he had been using all along, Zhou Zekai felt that he had to give that self a thumbs up.

After breakfast, Ye Xiu routinely turned on his computer to check his work email—if there was anything that Glory could not handle, he would leave him a message through this method, and he would go there if he had time—of course, if the matter was not complicated, Ye Xiu After separating from Zhou Zekai, the cultivator will go alone, so as not to take up too much time with each other.

Ye Xiu saw three unread emails in his mailbox today.

The first one was sent by Wei Chen from the Guangzhou Glory branch, saying that one of his staff's neighbors disappeared inexplicably, and he still wanted to raise that child. What a pity, etc. Strictly speaking, it's not a work email.Zhou Zekai had heard that Wei Chen was the head of the Guangzhou branch before he was transferred to the Hangzhou branch, and that the smiling Yu Wenzhou was his successor. It seems that Lord Grim landed quite early last night—you must know that he was the head of the Guangzhou branch yesterday. Kissed with Ye Xiu on the bridge, and the coordinates were all used... ahem, anyway, get out.

The second one was sent by Guo Mingyu from the Third Bureau of the Beijing Headquarters, saying that he had received an alien communication, and hoped that Ye Xiu would drive Lord Grim to translate it.Zhou Zekai had also heard about this person from Ye Xiu before, but he was retired from the front line due to a work-related injury, and he still owed Ye Xiu money.In short, there is no rush.

The third one is a bit more interesting. It was sent by the glorious chairman Jin Chengyi, but the recipient was not only Ye Xiu, but also Zhou Zekai. He didn't say anything, just gave the time and address, and hoped that the two of them would go and have a look. Look, there are surprises.

"When did Lao Jin start talking about it? Oh, I remember he's about to retire, maybe he gave our two hard-working consultants some small benefits while he was still in his seat?" Ye Xiu turned his head. Looking at Zhou Zekai, "Although the address is a bit weird... But anyway, there are no arrangements left and right, why don't we go and have a look?"

Zhou Zekai naturally agreed, so ten seconds later, they arrived in Beijing.

"... Interesting." Ye Xiu looked up at the building, and said to Zhou Zekai, "This place is specially used for small and medium-sized groups to hold events, such as meetings of civil society organizations, activities for retired veteran cadres, tea parties in some circles, etc. ——Did you say that Glory held a small party for us?"

Zhou Zekai nodded: "It's possible."

"But is today a special day?" Ye Xiu thought for a while, and finally gave up, "Forget it, Lao Jin said that he put something for us at the front desk, so we'll know when we get it."

"Ah."

As soon as he entered the door, Ye Xiu rushed to the front desk, so Zhou Zekai looked at the row of roll-up banners in the hall.Probably because of the Golden Week of Integrity, there are a lot of activities here these days, there are fellow robe tea parties, Lolita tea parties, CP-ONLY tea parties, a party for retired cadres of XX company, and exchanges with the folk mystery investigation team Will...huh?

Zhou Zekai's gaze landed on the roll-up banner of the folk mystery investigation team.

Although there were a lot of activities in the past few days, on the day they fell, there were three of them, but both of them started in the morning, which was in line with the time given by Jin Yicheng-it started at 02:30 in the afternoon, and this was the only one.

Zhou Zekai's judgment was correct, because Ye Xiu came over with two tickets in his hand, and said with a "fucking" face: "A ticket for the exchange meeting of the mysterious incident investigation team? Lao Jin is really not joking with me." ?”

Zhou Zekai took a ticket out of Ye Xiu's hand and raised it, "No. [-] on the second floor."

"Okay, here we come." Ye Xiu could only shrug his shoulders.

After checking the tickets and entering the room, the two of them didn't expect that such an event organized by an unknown small group would not be too sluggish. At a glance, there were 40 to 10 people, and there were still [-] minutes before the event started. I don't know. How many more will come in.The two found a seat by the window, and as soon as they sat down, a boy in the back row stepped forward to chat.

"Hi, it's the first time I've met you. My forum ID is Tian Qi." This person has a crew cut, his skin is tanned, and the dividing line is very obvious. It seems that it is the result of the recent short-term exposure to the sun. It is estimated that It's a freshman who just finished military training.

Ye Xiu glanced at Zhou Zekai, and replied naturally: "My ID is Lord Grim, and he is Cloud Piercer."

"Huh? I don't think I've seen your names before?"

"We are relatively low-key, habitual diving."

Tian Qi asked doubtfully: "But, for this exchange meeting, those whose forum level is less than six can't come?" Speaking of this, he suddenly realized, "Oh, I see, the girl who won two tickets in the lottery , Shen Yu, said that I have something to do with my friends and I can't come to transfer the ticket to someone else, is it you?"

Ye Xiu nodded without hesitation: "Yes." He immediately changed the subject, "Are you familiar with everyone?"

"I also came to the tea party exchange meeting on Qingming Festival, and most of them know each other." Tian Qi pointed to the people who were debugging the projection equipment, and introduced them one by one. The supernatural version of the moderator Qian Cheng, and the alien version of Mu Yunshen are all old people in the jar, and the activities are organized by them."

"Hmm." Ye Xiu nodded.

"I'm especially looking forward to the investigation report that Sleeping Moon shared with us this time. He has been preparing it since the Ching Ming Festival. He said he found it from his grandfather's diary..." He took out a communication meeting schedule Come out and point to the penultimate one to show them, "It's about a zombie named Ye Xiu who can't die no matter what and his thousand-year-old demon fox named Xiaozhou."

Zhou Zekai and Ye Xiu: "..." Are you kidding me?
