The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 67
After He Yu died that night, not only Yang Yang, but everyone fell into silence.

After returning to the dim sum shop, Yang Yang briefly talked about the general situation with Michelle, and then went into the room to sleep.Seeing him like this, Michelle was a little worried, but Yuan Mu waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'm just too tired."

Whether he is too tired or not, no one knows except Yang Yang himself.Yuan Mu looked at Yang Yang's closed door and thought.

Michelle saw that both of them looked preoccupied, she tilted her cute little head, then turned around and handed Yuan Mu a cup of hot milk and said, "Brother Yuan Mu has worked hard too, let's go to rest early."

"Hey~ hot milk! I knew Xiao Xueer loved me the most!" Yuan Mu took a sip of the cup of hot milk and said, "Then I won't disturb your rest, goodbye."

"Brother Yuan Mu, goodbye." Michelle smiled at him, waved her hand and said.

The next morning Yang Yang got up very early, it was not yet seven o'clock when he woke up, he stayed on the bed for a while, recalled the questions he had been thinking about last night, and then jumped up from the bed.

After washing up, Yang Yang, who was about to go out, saw the box next to the bed, he hesitated for a while, and went forward to open the box.

Looking at the dragon wood in the box, he hesitated for a while, then picked up the piece of wood and went out.After he had prepared everything for the dim sum shop to open, he knocked on Michelle's door and asked her for more than an hour's leave.

Regardless of whether Yuan Mu's words last night were true or not, he had to find out the ins and outs of this matter.

Although, as a human being, he knows better than anyone else that the human heart is actually more terrifying than those human-eating monsters, but his consciousness as a human being still subconsciously rejects that possibility.

Yuan Mu said that it is human beings who cooperate with Heyao.

On the way back last night, he had been thinking about this matter all the way, and Yuan Mu seemed to know the entanglement in his heart, so until they parted, the two of them didn't speak.

However, Yang Yang didn't want to admit it so much, this matter still needs to be investigated.

Heyao died, and many of their clues were broken. Zhou Liang and Yu Zhongwu went to investigate Heyao's suicide, and he went to Lu Axe to inquire about Huolongmu.This can be regarded as a way to divert attention, although it may not be useful.

Recalling Michelle's worried eyes before he left, Yang Yang sighed in his heart. He originally said to find out what made her not worry, but now the person who worried her most became himself.

Because of the proximity, within 15 minutes, Yang Yang walked to the back door of Xiaochen's hot pot restaurant. He knocked on the door, but no one answered.Just when Yang Yang was about to take out his mobile phone to make a call with Lu Fu, the door opened from the inside.

It was Xiaochen who opened the door. She had a displeased face. She was a little surprised when she saw that it was Yang Yang. She adjusted her expression and said, "Why is it you?"

"Then who do you think it is?" Yang Yang replied smoothly, and then saw Lu Ax following behind Xiaochen with a flattering smile on his face, Yang Yang yelled strangely when he saw this, "Lu Ax, what's wrong with you?"

"He's crazy!" Before Lu Ax opened his mouth, Xiaochen spoke.She looked at Yang Yang with a gritted expression and said, "Didn't you say that your friend has no quirks?!"

"No..." Yang Yang thought back on Lu Ax's usual actions and the news he got from Yuan Mu, and then combined his relationship with Lu Ax these days, and came to this conclusion.

"Then what do you say about his weapon refining!" Xiaochen raised her voice when she heard Yang Yang's words.

"Uh..." Yang Yang was at a loss when Xiaochen asked him this question. He looked at Lu Ax who was standing behind Xiaochen, still maintaining a smirk, and replied cautiously: "As far as I know, Artifact refining is not a quirk...is it?" Seeing Xiaochen's face after speaking, he immediately added: "Probably...maybe...?"

Seeing him like this, Xiaochen took a deep breath, then stepped aside and said, "You come in first, let's talk."

Yang Yang, who was thinking that he would finally be able to enter the door, felt dizzy when he heard the words "let's talk".But in any case, what should be done had to be done, so he could only bite the bullet and enter the door.

"What did he do?" Before Xiaochen could speak, Yang Yang spoke first.His experience with Chacha told him that when a girl thinks she has made a mistake, the first task is not to admit her mistake, but to figure out where the mistake is.

Because even if you admit it wrong, nine out of ten they will ask, where did you go wrong?So instead of being scolded by Xiaochen later and not knowing why, Yang Yang chose to know the cause and effect first.

"He knocked on my rockery!" Xiaochen pointed to the rockery that had been knocked off, and complained: "Forget it, he also tried to pry the tiles on my roof!"

"Ah?" Yang Yang, who originally prepared a big reason to explain Lu Ax's liking for refining weapons, was completely speechless now. He looked at Xiaochen with a sad and indignant expression, turned his head to look at Lu Ax and asked :"what happened to you?"

"In this yard, everything is a good material for refining!" Yang Yang didn't ask, it's okay, but when he asked Lu Ax, he was like an old lady who had been suffocating for 100 years and turned on the chatter mode, "I Let me tell you, have you seen that glazed tile on the roof? It’s not a glazed tile at all, it’s Kunlun jade, you know Kunlun jade?”

"I don't know." Yang Yang looked at Lu Fu's excited expression, shook his head indifferently, and replied.

"I don't know to tell you, the so-called Kunlun jade is just..." Lu Fu didn't realize the wrongness in Yang Yang's tone at all, and said to himself.

"I don't want to know." Yang Yang interrupted him, pointed to the door of Qingfeng's room and said, "Go in for me now, and I will talk to you later."

"..." Lu Ax looked at Yang Yang, blinked his eyes, and seemed to understand what he meant.After a while, Lu Ax nodded, and replied: "Oh." He really turned his head and walked towards Qingfeng's room.

Xiao Chen was stunned, Yang Yang turned his head to look at her and said, "Lu Ax is a genius for making weapons, but God is always fair, when he rewards you with food, he will definitely take away some of your favorite dishes, That’s how it is for Lu Ax.” After speaking, Yang Yang made a deep expression and said, “You know that Lu Ax lived alone before, and only after something happened would he leave his previous life alone. The house is sold. He is not a mortal, but he asked me to help him find a house, so you know he doesn't have many friends."

Xiaochen listened to Yang Yang's words and nodded.

"I came to you at the beginning because Yue Bing told me that you were a friend she could trust. I thought, if you and Lu Ax were not human beings, we might be able to understand each other. Besides, Lu Ax is a foolish person when it comes to interpersonal relationships. Yes, I think you are very cheerful and have a good personality, which may make him willing to go out and make friends or something, I am really sorry to trouble you."

After speaking, Yang Yang nodded at Xiaochen and said, "I can understand if you don't want to rent the house to Lu Fu anymore, after all..."

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that!" When Xiaochen heard Yang Yang's words getting more serious, she quickly waved her hands and denied, "Since you've said that, even if I planned to drive him out before, I'm embarrassed now, let's talk about it." Now, I need you to help me with my industrial and commercial tax certificate!"

"It's easy to say, easy to say." Seeing that Xiaochen didn't plan to drive Lu Ax out, Yang Yang breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said: "Don't talk about the industrial and commercial tax certificate, you can use me for anything in the future, just ask me, If I can help, I will definitely help!"

"Really?" Xiaochen's eyes lit up when he heard his words.

"Really..." Yang Yang looked at Xiaochen's expression, and his heart suddenly turned cold. With her expression, there must be something else for him to do!Own this mouth!However, the words had already been spoken, and it was too late to regret, so Yang Yang had no choice but to bite the bullet and nodded.

"It just so happens that I need your help." Xiaochen then looked at him with a smile and said.

"What's the matter?" Yang Yang said, thinking of the previous things, he hurriedly added: "Let's say it first, I'm very tired recently, I won't do undercover work!"

"Pfft..." Xiaochen was amused by his words, and said, "Where are you thinking, my business is very simple, I just ask you to find someone for me."

"Looking for someone?" Yang Yang was a little surprised when he heard that Xiaochen asked him to help find someone, and asked, "Do you have an address or a name?"

"Well, yes, the address and name are all here, you find him and tell him to let him come to my place." Xiaochen took out a business card from his clothes, stuffed it into Yang Yang's hand and said.

"That's it?" So simple?Yang Yang couldn't believe his ears.

"Well, that's it." Xiaochen nodded, as if she was afraid that Yang Yang would regret it, she added a sentence: "The gentleman said something quickly, you promised me!" Before Yang Yang could respond, he turned his head He ran away, turned his head and shouted while running: "I'm going out, remember to close the courtyard door when you go out after telling Lu Axe."

"..." Yang Yang watched Xiaochen run farther and farther, and after a while he came back to his senses and said, "Oh."

After solving Lu Fu's accommodation problem, Yang Yang quickly walked into his room.The room was still tidy, except that all the things in the living room had been replaced by Lu Fu with a work table and a few small alchemy furnaces, it was not much different from the last time he came.

Yang Yang was not polite to Lu Ax, he just showed Lu Ax the fire dragon wood, and then briefly talked about the origin of this wood and said: "You are an expert in refining, we only know how to make it. Yes, but you can only know the specific refining, so we thought, can you please take a look, what is the way to find out who is the best at refining, if you can’t find out, at least give us an investigation direction."

"No problem, this matter is on my shoulders." Lu Fu didn't bother him, he simply nodded and agreed.

Seeing this, Yang Yang didn't stay any longer, he simply explained to Lu Ax not to make Xiaochen angry too much, and left.

Before leaving, Yang Yang took out the business card that Xiaochen stuffed for him and looked at it, thinking, it seems that he will also ask for leave in the afternoon.
