Ten minutes later, Huai Shi finally realized what was going on.
It seemed like he was being targeted by some dark force?
"Why?" Huai Shi slammed the table in grief and indignation. "I only kicked him twice. Why is he acting like this?"
"That's not all! I saw it clearly. " Yoo Dong-ri raised his finger to correct him. "Not only did you break his little finger, you pulled his hair, you snatched his box, and you even kicked his crotch twice! If I were Wang Hai, I would definitely not let you go. "
"How could you forget so quickly that you even hit him with a stick?"
"Let me go. I'm just a prostitute." Yoo Dong-ri blinked proudly. "Look, I'm weak, helpless, and pitiful."
"And bald."
Huai Shi added.
"That's enough! My hair has already grown out! " Yoo Dong-ri was so angry that he took off his wig. He leaned over and pointed at his tragic hairline. "Do you see it? Do you see it? It's already grown out! "
"It's okay. It grows fast, and it falls fast."
Huai Shi didn't even bother to look at him. He lowered his head and ate.
Needless to say, the pigeon was quite delicious. Since it was Yoo Dong-ri's treat, he didn't hold back and ordered another pigeon to make soup.
As if sensing Huai Shi's low mood, Yoo Dong-ri put out his cigarette and pushed the dishes next to Huai Shi.
"There's no need to be afraid. It's just a few small fries. You don't have to face the rancher head on. Don't underestimate the Astronomy Association, kid. Your backer is one of the strongest in the world. Even if the rancher comes to the Earth, he'll be beaten back to his paradise. If you really go up, you'll only be dealing with a few small fries. "
He suggested, "If you think you can't do it, you might as well resign."
Huai Shi paused for a moment, then lowered his head and continued to gnaw on the pigeon leg until the bones were clean and thrown into the plate. He pulled a piece of tissue to wipe his hands.
"No, actually, I'm not afraid. He said, "It's just that … I'm a little angry."
"Hmm?"
"No matter how powerful the rancher is, I don't have to worry about him, right?" Huai Shi raised his head and said seriously, "But why is it so difficult just to live a good life?"
Yoo Dong-ri was dumbfounded. He was silent for a long time before he shook his head and sighed.
"Because life is never simple, Huai Shi." He said, "Sometimes, Ascenders seem to have more choices than ordinary people, but sometimes, everyone has no choice.
Something will happen that you don't expect. It will hurt and upset you, but you have to try to accept it. Whether you want it or not, this is your life. "
"When you become an Ascender, maybe you'll have already bid farewell to your past life, Huai Shi. It's just that you're still stuck in the past."
He looked at the teenager with a complicated expression. "If you just want to live a peaceful life, it's actually very simple. Even I can help you do it. Change your name and identity. You can withdraw and start over in another city."
Huai Shi shook his head without hesitation. "My home is here. I'm not going anywhere."
"Your home is just an empty house."
"That's also my home." The teenager calmly replied, "With it, no matter how miserable I am outside, I can at least be a domestic dog.
If I didn't have it, then I would have to be a stray dog.
Yoo Dong-ri was silent.
He didn't say anything else and just patted him on the shoulder.
.
.
After the meal, Yoo Dong-ri dawdled in the toilet for a long time. He didn't know how much hair growth cream he had applied before he came out.
After paying the bill, he asked Huai Shi where he was going. He asked if he could give him a ride.
"You bought a car again?" Huai Shi was shocked.
"I rented it."
Yoo Dong-ri opened the door and sat in the driver's seat. He started the engine and drove the car on the road. He looked at the road outside and suddenly said, "I'm leaving."
"Huh?"
"Didn't I tell you earlier? I plan to go out and play for two years. I finally packed up these two days. "He pressed down the window and lit a cigarette." I'm leaving from Jinling on the early morning flight. "
"Where are you going?"
"America first. It's said that there are a lot of places to play in the free cities of the United States." Yoo Dong-ri talked about his long travel plans. "Next, I'll probably go to Rome or Egypt. I'll come back after spending all my money."
"Oh."
Huai Shi scratched his head. "Have a safe trip."
Yoo Dong-ri shook his head and smiled. He didn't answer. He just reached out and picked up a paper bag and threw it to Huai Shi.
"This is for you."
Huai Shi took the paper bag and opened it. Inside was a flat square box. When he took it out, he saw the logo on it and suddenly couldn't believe it.
"Where did you get this?"
"A friend from Rome gave it to me. I forgot it in the box and didn't open it. I found it when I was packing. But now everyone uses mobile phones to listen to music. I don't know what to do with it." Yoo Dong-ri said, "If you like it, take it."
"Then I'll take it."
Huai Shi raised his eyebrows happily. He opened the plastic seal and the Cowon logo on the box, revealing the palm-sized music player inside.
The brass body, and the manual adjustment of the upper side of the double control knobs … He couldn't put it down.
It was even more pleasant than getting the border relic.
In this era where everyone was beginning to get used to mobile phones, very few people would think of this kind of thing called MP3. It was like being abandoned by the era with the CD player. Except for a few enthusiasts, very few people would pay attention to this kind of thing from the past.
And the price of the remaining ones was getting higher and higher.
Just this one player was already comparable to a good handmade piano.
If it was a gift of the same value, Huai Shi might not accept it, but Yoo Dong-ri's choice left him no room for hesitation.
Besides, he broke a car worth millions. If he accepted a player worth more than ten thousand, the burden on his conscience was negligible.
It was a return gift for Bawang shampoo.
Looking back at the smiling teenager in the passenger seat, Yoo Dong-ri had no idea what was going on in this guy's mind. He could only shake his head and sigh:
"It's good to be young …"
Finally, the car stopped in front of the stone marrow museum. Huai Shi got out of the car, installed the player with satisfaction, and waved goodbye, "Have a safe trip, I'll treat you to dinner when you come back."
"We'll see."
Yoo Dong-ri smiled and waved goodbye, "Take care of yourself."
The car left.
Huai Shi watched Old Liu's shadow disappear. His heart suddenly felt empty. He stood in place for a long time and shook his head to dispel the sadness.
I can't worry anymore, I'll be gay if I worry anymore …
I can only wish Old Liu a safe trip.
In fact, as soon as he got home, he began to worry again.
The Crow landed on the table in front of him. She wore a mask as a white coat, a miniature stethoscope around her neck, and a tube of dark green medicine wrapped around her wings.
"Come on, body check!"
She took out a pair of glasses from somewhere and put them on her beak. Her voice was gentle and charming, "Let me see if you're developing normally …"
If it wasn't a crow, then it would be fine.
Is there a problem with my graphics card?
Huai Shi sighed, leaned back on the chair, and let her do as she wished.
In fact, it was no different from a simple physical examination in the hospital. It had almost become a daily routine. His weight and height were measured, and his blood was poured into some strange reagent for testing.
With Huai Shi's alchemy knowledge that was close to nothing, he couldn't see anything at all. He didn't need to see anything. For his own body, he had a more intuitive feeling than any other test.
His development had begun to accelerate.
If the original process was slowly accelerating, now he was running on the highway and began to rampage, growing wildly.
Every day, he could clearly feel his body strengthening. The itchiness and pain of his bones growing had already woken him up from his dreams several times.
After two days of muscle growth soreness passed, he began to feel his heart beating erratically from time to time. He always felt the phantom pain from his internal organs and limbs.
In less than a week, he had grown four centimeters taller. The size of his clothes before was almost obsolete.
And now, his thin arms and legs could actually be seen with the outline of his muscles.
Especially his hands, his nails grew faster and faster. He now cut his nails once a day on average. Every time his nails were cut, he could smell the hallucinatory smell of sulfur.
According to Crow, this was a side effect of specialization.
Because his direction of improvement seemed to be perception type, even if the growth was over, his muscle strength wouldn't increase to an exaggerated degree.
As compensation, some of his joints, tendons, and bones would be strengthened. His nerve reaction speed and internal organs would be further improved. Most importantly, his eyes, ears, smell, and touch would be strengthened.
According to Crow's evaluation, this type of perceptive type was the most suitable type for survival. It could see far, smell a lot, hear a lot, and have explosive power. It could also run very fast … It was like an old dog, slippery and slippery. If one did not use special tools, it would be impossible to catch it.
Coupled with the 'premonition of death' that she kept dying and dying, Huai Shi felt that she would be able to survive until the end of time.
But there was a flaw.
For some reason, his face was getting paler and paler recently. He looked more and more like a pretty boy, the kind that was powdered. His originally tanned arms were now as white as jade. Even the blood vessels under his skin had become clear.
This made Huai Shi, who longed for a tough guy's style, feel very uncomfortable.
"Isn't this too sissy?"
He looked at himself in the mirror, "Can't I be more normal?"
"It looks like the effect of the medicine is good."
Crow seemed to be quite satisfied with his results. He took off his glasses, "If it continues like this, you can be buried in about a week."
"What the hell?" Huai Shi was alert.
"Hmm? Did I accidentally say something? "Crow blinked innocently.
"I seem to have heard someone say 'buried in the ground'?"
"You're probably hallucinating, aren't you?"
Crow looked away and sighed helplessly, "This is a common symptom of puberty. Like puberty, there are always some shameful things happening … You have to get used to it."
