Star Architect

Chapter 18

Luo Pingxuan calmly looked at Qi Qiuran's thinking face, and also realized that she might plan to find out.

At this time, watching Qi Qiuran in a daze was not an option, Luo Pingxuan knew that he was bored, turned around and cleaned up the store, then came back and casually looked at Qi Qiuran, and was about to ask her something, but Qi Qiuran suddenly started to write.

"In this world, no one's illusion will appear for no reason."

Qi Qiuran turned a new page in the small book on the bar counter, and wrote down this sentence inspired by "Dry Bones Illusion", and signed it: Mr. Cao Mat.

"You wish for illusions to drown your solitude."

On the facing page, this sentence appeared out of thin air in green handwriting, and the world once again echoed a cold and deep voice.

"Come over to me at night. I don't guarantee that you will have something, but I will tell you why you came."

Qi Qiuran's face was calm, but he said two lukewarm words in his heart: Really.

Luo Pingxuan stood helplessly at the side at this moment, he knew: Even for the sake of safety, it is impossible for him to stop Qi Qiuran from going.

According to what the "mysterious man" meant, if they didn't go, there might be one thing after another, forcing them to find the "mysterious man" in the end.

Although, going to Baobuqi, things will happen one after another, Luo Pingxuan and Qi Qiuran are well aware of this situation, after all, this is the routine of most novels.

Thinking of this, the two looked at each other and complained in their hearts: To have such an idea, could it be that they have read too many novels?

But, having said that, in many things, it seems that one party will choose to leave a lot of things, but in fact, this kind of thing is often the least choice.

How do you say it in the words of the Internet?Beep the dog?

Pooh!Qi Qiuran, who used to be a bit cold and humorous, how did he learn to say these words now?

Qi Qiuran quickly forced himself to do something else, after all, there were still more than two hours until dark...

etc?two hours?

It's past four o'clock in the afternoon.

Qi Qiuran suddenly realized that she had spent two hours unknowingly, but this awareness is the most terrifying, because the time after that will make people care more and make people suffer.

It will make people feel that although it is good to do something, the time will pass too slowly when doing anything, so that you will be absent-minded when doing anything, and you will not look like you are doing everything.

Fortunately, there are Luo Pingxuan and Qi Qiuran in this store, as well as a female ghost who is in and out. These "buddies" who are familiar with each other make people feel more at ease.

"Hey, their exams are almost over." Luo Pingxuan was also bored several times, and asked weakly.

"35:[-], logically speaking, it's over, but the teacher must be restoring the examination room to the class and arranging the study itinerary. The latest students who may leave will be after six o'clock."

"Ah... that's the best."

"Cough, crack, crack, crack..."

"Why are you eating melon seeds?" Luo Pingxuan was halfway through speaking, feeling something was wrong with the voice in his ear and turning around, only to see Qi Qiuran standing at the bar, eating melon seeds facing the door.

"Hmm." Qi Qiuran replied casually.

"Where did you get the melon seeds?" As he spoke, Luo Pingxuan saw how vigorously she was eating, and grabbed a handful without holding back.

"I originally planned to give you melon seeds after you finished that half sentence."

pia.

When Qi Qiuran lost his voice, one of Luo Pingxuan's melon seeds dropped.He picked up the melon seeds and continued the previous topic: "The fastest, when will the students come out?"

"Well." Qi Qiuran raised his eyebrows outwards, and some students had already come out. Qi Qiuran went on to say: "The teacher who arranged the tasks in advance will let the students on duty stay to clean the battlefield, and the students who have no other tasks will all go back to school after school." Home."

"Just 7 minutes after the exam, this kind of teacher is really sharp."

"Ah."

"Crack, click, click."

The two were knocking on the melon seeds calmly, watching a student push the door in, and then they were stunned for a few seconds; they were stunned for another two seconds before quickly put away the melon seeds, wiped the bar counter, and put on a serious face It looks like it's open for business.

"Refills. Only black and blue?" The student turned around a few times before asking.

"The colored ones are over here."

The student followed the voice and turned around for a moment: "So many pens? Are they all in color? It's pretty pretty."

"Currently, these pens don't have the same style, just choose some if you like."

"No match?"

"Yeah, if there must be, it's the same style as 'Street Corner'."

Speaking of this, the student smiled knowingly, "Street Corner" is the brand of this store, the girl did not continue to ask, picked up a stack of post-it notes and heard someone calling her, only to find that there were more people in the store, She lightly mentioned those pens that were not of the same style, talked and smiled, checked out and left.

Qi Qiuran breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Luo Pingxuan who was surrounded by several girls and joked: "Mr. Luo is so popular with girls, how about picking one to go back to see the mother-in-law?"

"Come on, as my son's god-sister, can you not cheat on me?"

Luo Pingxuan answered Qi Qiuran fluently amidst a burst of laughter, and wrapped up snacks in his hand and handed them to the students.

With this delivery, there were really two friends of a certain girl winking at Luo Pingxuan, looking at his friend's back and implying something.

"Ken, ken..." Luo Pingxuan coughed a few times pretending to understand, and the hinted girl had to react, pretending to be angry and fighting with her good sisters.

Amid all the peaceful surroundings, one or two people turned over the green handwriting, showed complicated expressions, glanced around, and hurriedly checked out and left.

This scene was deeply in Qi Qiuran's eyes.

Mirage, is it to submerge loneliness?

These words lingered in Qi Qiuran's ears.

But to submerge loneliness, how big and complicated an illusion is necessary.

Unknowingly, the customers on the street corner dispersed, and the [-]-square-meter shop became cold, leaving only two living people, Qi Qiuran and Luo Pingxuan.

Darkness completely submerges the last ray of sunlight shining on the ground; blackness makes the world empty and boundless; night, on the contrary, makes those forgotten things become clearer.

The cursing and mourning in my heart slowly echoed in the black sky, as if the dome was a complete, borderless scar that could no longer cover the pain.

Whose pen flashes under the lamp again.

Whose eyes reflect mottled starlight.

Qi Qiuran walked around inside and outside the store a few times to confirm that there were no customers left, so he packed up his things and started cooking.

The crow stopped on the opposite wall, glanced at the glass door, saw some terrifying bloody river, and flew away with a loud "quack".

The three feathers that fell from the sky once again put on a strange and evil smile!

At this time, there were a few more maggots in the bone illusion.Swinging and crawling along the bony spurs protruding from the ground, two red dots protrude from their heads, turning into eyes like radar, allowing the red light to collect everything within sight.

"In every fight, there are always victims."

After Qi Qiuran's first exam in the third year of junior high school, she could hear this sentence in every exam after that, and she always seemed to be a "victim". Only when the blood pupil appeared, she was more like a warrior.

The bell struck the eighth strike.

Qi Qiuran raised his head to hang the clock, packed the dishes and suddenly appeared behind Luo Pingxuan: "Your sister has become an old lady?"

"Ah... what?" After asking, Luo Pingxuan suddenly picked up a rag and wiped all the tables and blurted out: "You really don't plan to hire a clerk?"

"The kind of food and shelter?"

"Uh... It's not necessary, it's not necessary. At least there's no need to take care of it. It's enough to take care of a meal in the first half of the day."

"We are recruiting people when we officially open."

Sometimes, Luo Pingxuan, who was used to having a nanny at home, really couldn't understand what Qi Qiuran was thinking, even though he was sure that Qi Qiuran had her reasons.

At this moment, Luo Pingxuan calmed down and thought about it, and suddenly realized some other problems, and temporarily dismissed the idea of ​​hiring someone.

There are too many things to consider, not to mention that although Qi Qiuran is easy-going and humorous, she is not the kind of girl who is good at dealing with people. Dealing with strangers will only increase the burden. It may be better for her if no outsiders come to work here .

He had no choice but to shake his head with a wry smile in his heart, and let himself learn to get used to doing those housework. Who told him to have a "demonic" sister to take care of.

"It's time to go." Qi Qiuran looked at Luo Pingxuan who was in a daze and said, "Or you can watch the store for me."

"No, you know I'm not good at these things in the store." Luo Pingxuan stood up quickly.

"So what are you looking at, grab something."

Luo Pingxuan unintentionally picked up his coat, looked at the expressionless Qi Qiuran and turned to pack his things, looked at the female ghost and said coldly: "I'll tell you what's going on here."

Then he raised his mouth and smiled behind Qi Qiuran's back. At this time, you and that female ghost are not on the same line.

All of this was seen by the crow on the wall outside the door.
