Chapter 163: Skeleton Chapter 163: Skeleton Lin Murong twitched the corners of his mouth.
Only Chi Yan.
Such a picky eater.
“What are we eating?” Su Yinhe raised the question.
She was having trouble deciding.
Lin Murong didn’t even think about it before blurting out, “Hotpot.” His love.
Chi Yan said, “I’m good with anything.”
“Then… let’s not have hotpot.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Murong’s head dropped in disappointnt.
“Let’s have barbecue.”
“Really?!” Lin Murong’s head perked up again.
If hotpot was his love, then barbecue was his sweetheart.
Eager for his sweetheart, Lin Murong began preparing with gusto.
Su Yinhe only had to take out the ingredients and cookware, and Lin Murong started grilling with enthusiasm.
“It slls so good.” Lin Murong stared at the barbecue, almost drooling.
The at had been marinated in advance and was ready to grill.
“Galaxy, how do you have everything?” Even the marinated at was ready. Like Doraemon.
“It’s okay, I don’t have everything.”
“Then what is it that you don’t have?” Lin Murong asked as he flipped the at.
“Mice.” Su Yinhe spit out two words, thought about it, then added four more. “And cockroaches.”
Lin Murong’s hand paused, feeling that the barbecue wasn’t quite as appetizing anymore.
“That’s kind of gross.”
“Being grossed out is right, if you weren’t grossed out, you’d be abnormal.” Su Yinhe’s barbecue was ready, she picked so up, first dipping it in chili powder, then wrapping it in lettuce before eating it.
“Delicious.”
Lin Murong, who had been sowhat grossed out, watched her eat with such relish that he couldn’t wait to try it himself.
Chi Yan’s barbecue was ready too. He just dipped it in chili powder, without wrapping it in lettuce, and ate it straight.
It was also delicious.
Out of the three, Lin Murong was the slowest at grilling.
Because he had chosen a piece that was both large and thick, thinking it would have more at.
As a result, while Chi Yan and Su Yinhe were starting on their second pieces, his was still not done.
Lin Murong watched them eating with such gusto that he was almost in tears.
When he finally took a bite, tears of joy stread from his eyes.
“I can’t believe I’m still able to eat barbecue, I’m so lucky.” Lin Murong learned his lesson and chose thinner slices of at afterwards.
His hands moved quickly.
His mouth was almost never idle.
Half the barbecue ended up in his stomach.
Full and content, they began to discuss matters concerning Sweetheart Base.
“They’re off. Really creepy,” Lin Murong picked his teeth.
“I think so too. Sweetheart, Sweetheart, it doesn’t fit their na,” Su Yinhe said, sipping her tea slowly.
“The way they look at you, it’s really not right. Galaxy, you have to protect yourself, don’t be alone.”
“Mhm, mhm, mhm. I know.” Actually, she wouldn’t be in trouble. She was a woman with a cheat code, very powerful.
Unless soone else ca along with a system, nobody could handle her.
But that was sothing she couldn’t exactly explain.
Chi Yan said, “I’ll sleep in the room next to you. Call if anything happens.”
Chi Yan had seen their looks, always sowhat uneasy.
He was worried sothing might happen.
“OK. I’ll scream at the top of my lungs if anything’s up,” Su Yinhe gestured.
Chi Yan decided he wouldn’t sleep with earphones tonight.
“Let’s probe their reality in a couple of days,” Lin Murong felt that their luck, well.
Last ti was pretty good, running into Lin Musen, who was a good person.
But this ti, he directly encountered the oddly minded Chen Yuan.
This base, not just Chen Yuan, his subordinates are also off.
I always feel there’s a conspiracy.
After the discussion, Chi Yan and Lin Murong went up to clean the second and third floors.
Su Yinhe, who wanted to help, was pressed to stay down by them.
“Take a seat. Consider it our way of paying for the al.”
Alright then.
Since they didn’t let her work, she might as well rest.
It’s not that she loved working, it’s just that she felt a bit immoral lounging around while they were busy.
But since they were so adamant, she continued to play the ‘salted fish’.
Su Yinhe stayed on the first floor, and Chi Yan, not quite at ease, added a layer of water mbrane to the doors and windows so he could sense imdiately if anyone ca in.
Su Yinhe thought Chi Yan was pretty impressive.
She had seen many Water Elent Superpower Users at Sun Base, but their role seed just to provide water.
Or they followed squads out to supply water.
They rarely said they’d use their superpowers for combat.
They were just mobile water sources.
Their combat abilities were not obvious, and neither were their defensive capabilities.
Chi Yan was a rather special case.
He possessed the most coveted Space superpower and also the typically weakest Water Power.
Common sense would suggest he’d live a miserable life.
He might have been privately kept as a mobile water source and a walking warehouse.
But he used his smart brain to devise a way to drain water from people’s bodies.
And he ca up with the water mbrane.
Although Su Yinhe had never personally witnessed Chi Yan extracting water from soone, she knew it must be powerful.
Otherwise, so many people wouldn’t fear him.
It was said that many Water Elent Superpower Users, previously treated poorly and drained of resources, followed his example and forced those controlling them to improve their conditions.
Su Yinhe walked over to the window and, looking at the water mbrane above, couldn’t resist giving it a gentle poke.
She regretted it as soon as she did it.
She sneaked back to her spot and started watching videos on her tablet.
She should be fine, unnoticed.
She watched for a while, and seeing that Chi Yan hadn’t co down, felt he probably hadn’t noticed.
Chi Yan only ca down after he’d finished cleaning.
He was in charge of the second floor, and Murong cleaned the third.
Chi Yan had changed into a clean set of clothes, not at all looking like soone who had just finished a big clean-up.
Not long after, Murong finished too and ca down, carrying a skeleton on his back.
“Look what I found.” He was sowhat excited.
After coming down, he placed the skeleton on the floor and pointed at it excitedly, “Look, bones. There are two more sets upstairs. One big, one small, probably a family.”
Despite that, what in the world are you excited for?
“So why are you excited?” Su Yinhe couldn’t bear to look directly.
“We let Brother Chi examine it. Aren’t you a doctor, Brother Chi? You should like this, right?” Murong was pulling Chi Yan to touch the skeleton.
Chi Yan imdiately withdrew his hand into his pocket.
“Thanks. I don’t need it.”
“Co on, it wasn’t easy to find a skeleton. It might even be pre-apocalypse. It’s valuable for research.”
Chi Yan: “Get lost.”
“How can you be so cold? You don’t like the birthday gift I catered to you?” Murong looked dejected.
“That’s soone else’s bones, what gives you the right to say you’re giving it?” Chi Yan scoffed.
“Then… you an… holy shit!” Murong leaped away suddenly, his hands clutching his chest, his face a picture of horror.
“You’re not thinking of killing to get my skeleton, are you?”
Chi Yan: “…” This idiot.
