Liangfeng carried Maomao on his shoulders and came to the dessert shop where Yin Ruoruo made an appointment with him.
Is there any dessert shop open at this late hour?
On a dark street, there was only one dessert shop open alone, with orange lights shining in the window.
Liangfeng stood on the street and looked across the street.
It's Yingnan Girls' High School.
"It's Yan Man and Yin Ruoruo's school."
You Anran, Xiao Xiao and Wang Ruolin went to a normal high school, near the girls' high school.
jingle.
The cool breeze pushed the door open and entered the dessert shop, and the doorbell rang.
The dessert shop is not too big. In addition to the counter with various pastries, there are only a few tables near the window. There were no employees at the cashier or behind the counter, only a figure sitting on a long table next to the window with his back to the cool breeze.
It was a young girl, wearing long clothes and short skirts, with long silky black hair scattered behind her back and around her waist. The girl's appearance was reflected in the window.
The girl is reading a book seriously.
When Liangfeng walked in, he saw the girl holding her head with one hand and flipping through the book on the table with the other hand. There was also a small cake that she had eaten twice and a cup of hot milk beside her. The steam from the milk seems to be the only dynamic part of this picture.
It's Yin Ruoruo.
It's just that at this time, Yin Ruoruo gave the cool breeze a strange feeling, like a little flower on the roadside, delicate and fragrant, quiet and indifferent.
Liangfeng couldn't help but frowned.
How could Yin Ruoruo be delicate?
She is a ruthless person who can chop bullets with a sword.
Yin Ruoruo noticed the arrival of the cool breeze and turned her head. There was an expression of surprise on her face for a moment, mixed with some shyness. But then these expressions turned into the same plain smile as always, a little fake, but not annoying, and the temperament on his body returned to his cold temperament.
"Hey, you're here?" Yin Ruoruo raised her hand to say hello.
But before Liangfeng could say anything, Kathleen on Liangfeng's shoulder arched her back and pounced on Yin Ruoruo's neck with a meow.
If it hadn't been for that phone call, she and Liangfeng would have made kittens today.
Yin Ruoruo, die!
Yin Ruoruo turned her head and easily dodged Kathleen's flying attack, then turned her head and smiled disdainfully at Kathleen.
Although I don’t know what happened, I just started taunting him.
Kathleen immediately exploded and flew towards Yin Ruoruo again. Yin Ruoruo got up and dodged Kathleen's fly again. Katherine fell into Liangfeng's arms. When Katherine wanted to launch another meow attack, Liangfeng hugged Katherine and rubbed Katherine's neck to calm down Katherine.
"What's going on here?" Liangfeng asked. Before talking about business, he had to make sure the environment was suitable.
"Don't worry, this is the store that our action team has set up. It's opposite my school. It's usually responsible for connecting with me and helping me deal with some things." Yin Ruoruo knew what Liangfeng was thinking. She sat down again and scooped up the food with a small spoon. After holding a piece of cake, he continued: "Originally, I just wanted to set up an ordinary liaison office. Who knew that the members in charge of the work here were unexpectedly good at making various desserts. Unexpectedly, the place immediately became popular, and all the students from the Girls' High School couldn't help it. I know this store.”
"Now those members are considering opening a branch."
Hearing this, Liangfeng suddenly remembered the milk tea shop opened by Wang Zihao and others. Suddenly I felt that this group of people had no idea what they could accomplish in serious matters, but they could always bring surprises in unexpected places.
But since this place is safe enough, Liangfeng doesn't plan to continue talking nonsense.
Liangfeng sat directly next to Yin Ruoruo and asked, "What's going on with mushroom picking?"
"What I like most is how direct you are. There is no foreplay at all, which makes me unable to resist."
"..."
Under Liangfeng's gaze, Yin Ruoruo took out her mobile phone, opened the photo album, and handed it to Liangfeng.
The photo was taken in a dark environment, with the help of the phone's flash to illuminate the scene.
The photo shows a piece of mushrooms growing together, all quite plump. Even Liangfeng, who knows how to cook, has never seen mushrooms in such good condition several times. If they are made into dishes, they will definitely be delicious.
Then the cool breeze flipped the photos, and the other photos were taken from different angles.
only……
"Shiitake mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, king oyster mushrooms, coprinus... Why do so many mushrooms grow together? How are they cultivated?"
"I don't know either." Yin Ruoruo said with a smile, "I took these photos in Sakurai City tonight."
Tonight, when Yin Ruoruo and Huang Lao returned from the [Hospital], they received a message from members of the action team. When they arrived at the scene, they saw the mushrooms mentioned in the message.
Normal people know that it is impossible for such mushrooms to grow in such cold weather, and there are still a bunch of different varieties of mushrooms growing together.
Liangfeng also realized the problem.
"Did you find it tonight?"
Is this a genetically modified mushroom?
Yin Ruoruo nodded.
"Yes, it was found in an deserted garbage dump."
"It's just some mushrooms, you don't have to call me out yet." Liangfeng said.
"Of course it's not that simple. Later we dug up the pile of mushrooms. What do you think is inside?" Yin Ruoruo raised a finger and let it slip.
However, Liangfeng did not cooperate.
"Okay, we found a man's body." Yin Ruoruo spread her hands.
Liangfeng raised his head slightly, "You mean, these mushrooms use flesh and blood as nutrients to grow?"
I don’t like eating these mushrooms.
Yin Ruoruo nodded, her face became serious, and she said: "Although most of the flesh and blood of the corpse has disappeared, and the bones are penetrated by mycelium, it can be determined that it is indeed a male corpse. There are still residues of the corpse's clothes and some identity information. , through which we learned more about him. The deceased man was twenty-five years old, a native of Sakurai City, and had nothing special about his identity."
"Ghost? Weird?"
"That's the problem." Yin Ruoruo clapped her hands, "We found no ghost energy or special power on the corpse, and it doesn't look like something weird." Then Yin Ruoruo looked at Liangfeng and asked, "I want to ask, Do you know anything?"
Liangfeng was silent for a moment, as he was communicating with the ghost energy circuit and the ghosts in the courtyard overlooking Sakurai City.
However, nothing was gained.
"I don't know." Liangfeng said.
The ghost energy circuit began to spread, looking for traces of mushrooms in Sakurai City, and there was a reply soon.
Mushrooms appear in more than one place in Sakurai City.
"We didn't just find this place with mushrooms." Yin Ruoruo also said, "We found three more places with mushrooms. They were all in dark areas where few people paid attention. There were also three places under the mushrooms. There were only human corpses and stray animal corpses, most likely random killings. It is not ruled out that there are more places where mushrooms were planted."
"But our action team didn't even find any trace of the other party, let alone investigate. Now we can only send people to some places selling mushrooms to inquire about the situation, while others continue to check the dark corners of Sakurai City more carefully."
This method of killing is indeed strange, but what matters most to the action team and Yin Ruoruo is that no ghost energy or other forces were found.
Without direct clues, there is no clear direction to follow.
Either the ghost energy dissipated quickly, or... it was a special kind of existential action.
"Perhaps, the other party has strong anti-reconnaissance and anti-detection methods." Liangfeng said, and the ghost energy circuit did not find any suspicious figure of the suspected prisoner for the time being. In fact, what worries Liangfeng the most is that the ghost energy circuit did not notice the appearance of the mushroom immediately. In other words, the ghost energy circuit may not have noticed the crime.
"I think so too."
When Yin Ruoruo told Liangfeng the news, it was equivalent to reminding Liangfeng that something was starting to kill people in Sakurai City again.
Asking Liangfeng to come out is to let Liangfeng deal with that thing with her.
Liangfeng continued to look through the photo album on his phone, trying to see something from the mushrooms. However, when Liangfeng continued to scroll, he saw... Yin Ruoruo's selfie in the shower.
Wearing a bath towel gives people the feeling of holding a pipa and half covering their face.
I saw it, but I didn't seem to see anything.
Liangfeng paused with his fingers and turned to look at Yin Ruoruo.
Yin Ruoruo looked at Liangfeng with a smile, her eyes seemed to be asking "does it look good?"
Is this all part of your calculation?
Exit the album.
Then Liangfeng's hand stopped again.
The background of Yin Ruoruo's mobile phone is a profile photo of Liangfeng.
"Legend has it that if you use the photo of the person you like as the background of your phone for a month without being discovered, the confession will be successful." Yin Ruoruo pretended to be a girl.
"Wake up, you have passed the age of a pregnant girl." Liangfeng said.
"Is that okay, Haru?"
"I don't think it can be here at least."
