Yokai grocery store

The matter entrusted by Ning Cheng's client doesn't seem to be very strange at first glance. The continuous spring rain in March seems to be more like something that the Meteorological Bureau should manage.

However, if it were that simple, the Special Administration Bureau would not have received the entrustment.

"The client said that it's okay for them to have continuous spring rain for three consecutive months, and something strange happened in their field." Chi Ming was greeted by a team member he had rescued from a monster before, "It rained a lot, Most of the seedlings in the field drowned, but a small number became very strange."

When the same batch of seedlings were planted, two-thirds of them were drowned, and the remaining small part not only survived, but also thrived—this growth was a bit scary.

"According to the client, the seedlings are growing day by day, growing taller and taller than a 1.9-meter man." The group members repeated the client's words in a serious manner, "The seedlings are too tall. Cut it off, and it will grow back overnight, and if you look at it in the middle of the night, it looks like a row of people are pestering the field, panicking."

Chi Ming clicked his tongue: "What is this? What do you want me to do? Cut rice seedlings?"

The group member said: "No, Brother Chi." He was the one who was grateful for Chi Ming's life-saving grace, and dared to get close to Chi Ming.

"The branch of the Special Administration Bureau here also sent a partner, Brother Chi, you just check what happened to the seedlings... It is said that there are other weird things, the client didn't make it clear, you have to do it yourself Let's go."

"Partner?" Chi Ming raised his eyebrows, he was very unfamiliar with this word, and was about to say no need, when a horn sounded from far to near, and the dusty van drove over joltingly, and slammed on the brakes in front of the two of them.

Amidst the piercing sound of brakes, the minivan rolled up dust and stopped steadily.

The car door opened, and a handsome young man jumped out, and greeted the two of them with a smile: "Hello! I'm from the Ningcheng Special Administrative Bureau Branch, and my name is Dongyun—the east of the southeast and northwest, Zhu Junyun."

The team members immediately put on a polite smile: "Hello, hello..." He introduced to both sides, "Brother Chi, Brother Dong, I still have some things to deal with, so I'll leave the matter here to you two !"

The group members finished their matchmaking and retired, but what he didn't know was that as soon as he left, the corner of Chi Ming's lips curled up with a lazy attitude, and he showed a wicked smile.

Chi Ming: "Unfortunately, I don't need a partner."

Dongyun: "Unfortunately, I like to play with my partner."

The atmosphere was tense in an instant, and the two looked at each other, as if there was an electric current in their smiles, sparks fizzed out.

After a while, Chi Ming turned around and left.

Dongjun brushed off her neat cuffs with a smile, and followed leisurely.

……

Ningcheng is said to be a city, but it is actually a small town that has not yet fully urbanized, and the folk customs are relatively simple. Shen Qingzhuo sat at the breakfast stall by the street, with a dignified and elegant posture, and slowly sipped tea.

Lin Xiaocong poured the thick tea from the bowl into his stomach in one gulp, and the two thick tea stalks almost choked him.He put down the bowl, wiped his mouth carelessly, seeing Shen Qingzhuo as if drinking fine nectar and jade dew, couldn't help but smack his mouth.

...Well, there is still only a bitter and rough old tea smell.

"Boss Shen, thank you... You really saved my life this time." He scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "Otherwise I would have been trapped here to death."

He is a member of the Special Administration Bureau, and he was the one who came to the grocery store to apply for an ID card for Chi Ming, who was still a little dragon cub.It was at that time that he met Shen Qingzhuo, and in order to facilitate the delivery of the notification documents, he also got Shen Qingzhuo's contact information.

Fortunately, Shen Qingzhuo just happened to have nothing to do and checked his phone, otherwise his messages would lie in the unread column for eternity.

"It's easy to do." Shen Qingzhuo said gently.

But for him, this is a simple move, and for Lin Xiaocong, it is a real life-saving grace.Lin Xiaocong was a little scared when he thought about the past: "I really don't know what happened, I just passed by here, but when I fell asleep, I couldn't wake up!"

In the dream, there were countless thick and strong seedlings, entangled him tightly, making him unable to breathe, struggle, and almost suffocated in the dream. After finally waking up, he found that his body seemed to have become a root seedling.

As soon as the wind blows, the sun shines, and the rain rains, he wants to grow—his height has not changed, but the sound of growth and the feeling of seedlings breaking through the ground are all in his head, which is really terrifying !

Shen Qingzhuo said: "You once walked by the field... You choked a small grain of rice into your stomach."

Lin Xiaocong was terrified, and instantly became cowardly: "What... what do you mean? Has a grain of rice sprouted in my stomach?"

Shen Qingzhuo acquiesced to this statement: "It's okay, it's all right."

Although Boss Shen had confirmed that everything was fine, Lin Xiaocong still had lingering fears and asked hesitantly, "Why is this place so evil? Is this rice fine?"

"Cheng Jing is not, I'm afraid it's..." Shen Qingzhuo suddenly saw something, and after a while, he said nonchalantly, "I'm afraid there is something wrong with this spring."

"Spring? What's the problem with spring?" Lin Xiaocong was listening seriously, he paused for a moment, and subconsciously followed his line of sight, just in time to see two men turning from the street.

The man in the black shirt who was walking in front had a cold face and walked fast. Behind him was a young man in a pale pink shirt who was walking along with a smile, and the shape of his mouth seemed to be talking.

"Boss Shen, do you know them?" Shen Qingzhuo's gaze stayed on the two of them for a long time, and Lin Xiaocong asked subconsciously.

Not far away, the man with keen hearing turned his head suddenly. Seeing the situation here, there was a hint of joy on his face, and then he strode towards this side, "Sweet!"

This was the first time in more than three months that he saw Shen Qingzhuo face to face.

Shen Qingzhuo looked at him indifferently, then silently turned his gaze to the man who was following him, and then continued to move away silently, with a calm expression, as if he just saw a stranger.

After Chi Ming was stared at by him, he subconsciously glanced behind him, only to find that there was a follower who hadn't gotten rid of him, and he blurted out: "I don't recognize him!"

Dongyun rolled his eyes, heard something from his quick denial, walked forward with a smile, and greeted generously, "Hello, are you Brother Chi's friend? I'm his partner, Dongyun Yun."

Dongyun.

The name caught Shen Qingzhuo's attention, and he looked at him thoughtfully, then said, "Hello." He didn't mean to introduce himself, he got up after saying hello, looked at Lin Xiaocong, and motioned for him can go.

Lin Xiaocong scratched his head, he didn't want to say much, he smirked, and was about to leave with Boss Shen, but the man in black stretched out his long legs and firmly blocked their way.

"Tiantian came here to play?" Chi Laipi appeared again, as if he couldn't feel Shen Qingzhuo's indifferent attitude, he leaned over and said, "Let's go together!"

Dongyun narrowed his eyes, and came to join in the fun not to be outdone: "Since we are Chi Ge's friend, let's go together?"

He still wanted to say something to continue to "enliven" the atmosphere, but Lin Xiaocong said "hey" in surprise: "Are you from the Special Administration Bureau?" He pointed to Dongyun's cuff, where a small mark was embroidered, just It is the mark of the Special Administration Bureau.

Dongyun gave him a look, raised his eyebrows lightly, and said "um".

……

Ten minutes later, the four of them sat together in the small stall, and the atmosphere was a bit delicate.

Lin Xiaocong scratched his head and forcibly smoothed things over: "Since you are here for this matter, then we won't bother you..." He originally wanted to ask Boss Shen to find out what was going on with that weird little rice, but since The special management bureau has sent someone here, so he can't bother Boss Shen anymore.

Shen Qingzhuo hummed lightly, noncommittal, but Chi Ming vetoed it: "No."

A certain person from Chi glanced at Shen Qingzhuo, and said confidently: "This matter is troublesome, I need help."

It was miraculous and wondrous that these words came out of his mouth, and the three of them cast their eyes on him in unison.

Dongyun: "..." Who just boasted that he didn't want to be a partner?

Chi Ming was too lazy to deal with this inexplicable partner, his attention was all on Shen Qingzhuo: "Boss Shen, can I help you?"

Golden pupils are relatively rare, and sometimes Chi Ming would cover up the golden pupils when he was out of the house.But when he focused on looking over at this time, there was a faint golden light in his pupils.Listening to the "Boss Shen", Shen Qingzhuo moved her fingers slightly on her knee.

This is the first time that Chi Ming called him so seriously...

He couldn't figure out what Chi Ming meant, so he didn't respond, but Chi Ming had already regarded him as the default, and he slapped the table happily, and the teacup shook, "Let's go!"
