Mr. Dolittle seemed to be very happy, because for him, there was nothing happier than mastering new knowledge. To put it bluntly, for Mr. Dolittle, any unknown knowledge was a precious treasure, so it was naturally very satisfying to watch the process of accumulating wealth.
Therefore, Sheyan accompanied him for three drinks. The great scientist did not notice Sheyan's absent-mindedness, so he got up and left in high spirits. After Mr. Dolittle left, Sheyan poured another mouthful of wine into his mouth, then stretched out his right hand and stared at it in a daze. He was still reminiscing about the wicked grip from before. The ecstasy and the amazing elasticity on his fingers, as well as the sight of Zi, who was originally cold and calm, lying limply on his body and letting out an uncontrollable whimper from her nose, really fascinated Sheyan. His imagination was running wild, and his expression was naturally quite perverted.
But at that moment, a soft sound suddenly came from outside the window. The branches and leaves of the big tree outside the window obediently drooped down and pulled Melody in. She looked at Sheyan's expression and actions with surprise, as if she had seen a stranger.
Sheyan, who was immersed in his fantasies, suddenly bounced up from the bed and asked awkwardly.
"You … Melody, what's the matter?"
Melody looked at Sheyan in astonishment and exclaimed.
"The expression on your face just now was so strange. It was really scary."
Sheyan laughed dryly.
"I was hit in the head by a T-1000 in the afternoon battle. I'm still dizzy now, so I've been thinking about random things. It's not normal. What's so strange about that?"
Melody, on the other hand, was used to being naive and innocent. She did not doubt Sheyan's words at all. She immediately walked to his side and placed her hand on his forehead to cast a 'Rejuvenation' spell on him. Then, she said faintly, "Don't worry.
"What was that woman doing in your room just now?"
Sheyan's heart skipped a beat, but he said nonchalantly, "Nothing.
She's the deputy leader of our party. Of course she has to arrange the next operation with me. "
Melody stared at Sheyan with her clear eyes, pouting her little mouth as she said.
"I saw her running into your room alone. I don't know why, but I was very unhappy."
"So elves can get jealous too? Looks like this is a common emotion shared by all female creatures. "Sheyan thought to himself. Thousands of thoughts swirled in his mind, but he was very clear that it was rather unwise to continue dwelling on the issue of Zi. Therefore, he immediately used his body language. He rudely stroked Melody's thigh and gently said, "Don't worry, Melody. Don't worry.
"Did you come to find me because you missed me?"
Naturally, the shy Melody wouldn't answer such a blatant question. Furthermore, she realized that Sheyan's strange hands were becoming more and more unbridled. Her face flushed red, but she didn't know how to answer Sheyan's question.
If he said he wanted to, then he would be embarrassed. If he said he didn't want to, then he would be going against his conscience. A fresh and tender young lady running into a single man's room in the middle of the night and even sitting by his bedside, this kind of action was enough to explain the problem.
"No, don't ….." Melody shyly and powerlessly avoided Sheyan's demonic claws. She could feel the two hands that seemed to be filled with magic wanting a mile after taking an inch, but she still felt uncomfortable in this unfamiliar world. If they were in a familiar place like the Lord of the Rings world, of course she would respond with the most intense passion.
However, Sheyan was definitely not a person who would forget about proper business. His current actions were only advancing in order to retreat. While Melody was panting slightly, Sheyan suddenly realized something.
"Oh right, Mr. Dolittle is coming to discuss something with me later. He just demonstrated the latest scientific method of tracking to me. His knowledge is as profound as Saruman's. Did you bring some pearl grass? I'm sure Mr. Dolittle would be very fond of making tea out of it. "
Pearlgrass was the newest specialty of Dawn City. After Sheyan had transformed the environment, the area had become a unique high-latitude wetland. When the flowers bloomed next spring, this plant would grow around the swamp. Its leaves were in the shape of a string of pearls. It looked very unique.
Some of the elves were curious and began to pay attention to the grass. First, they discovered that the grass emitted a unique fragrance that could aid in the cultivation of magic. Later on, Segimli used the grass to soak in ale and discovered that it had a unique fragrance. After that, many elves used it to brew tea and it gradually became popular.
Only the snowy mountains, swamps, the warmth brought by the Balrog, and the special terrain of the Mines of Moria were suitable for the growth of the Pearl Grass. Therefore, the Pearl Grass had become the most popular export product in the City of Dawn.
Sheyan had tasted it before and found that it indeed had a magical effect. It refreshed the mind and had a pleasant fragrance.
However, when Melody heard that Mr. Dolittle was coming later, she was too shy to stay any longer. She hurriedly said that she wanted to leave in a panic. Sheyan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He also had a headache dealing with Melody and Zi, but for now, he could only take one step at a time.
***
Early the next morning, Sheyan heard the sound of heavy rain falling outside the window.
The sky was dark and the visibility was extremely low. The sky was already bright, but he could only see seven or eight meters ahead of him. Then, all he could see was a vast expanse of whiteness. The water absorption rate of the soil had obviously reached saturation. Large droplets of rainwater splashed into the puddles on the ground and created countless bubbles. On the road outside, a car with a gloomy anti-fog light would drive slowly past every ten minutes.
Sheyan turned on the television and watched the news broadcast. It was nothing more than water accumulating in a certain place or a certain house collapsing. This kind of bad weather was the busiest time for the firefighters and police.
Suddenly, the announcer's tone changed.
"According to the news we've just received, a vicious murder took place on Sixth Avenue in District 17. The location of the murder was the Simpson family's house. The neighbor said that the dog in the house kept barking at the Simpson family's house, so he went to take a look this morning and found that the whole family had been killed."
"According to the police investigation, the murderer used a weapon similar to a bayonet to commit the crime. The whole Simpson family was killed with a single blow, including the baby daughter who was still in the cradle. The police did not find any traces of fingerprints at the scene, so they suspect that the murderer is either a retired soldier or a professional killer. The Simpson family did not lose any property, so the murderer's motive is probably to vent his anger and hatred. In addition, after the murder, the murderer seemed to have used the broadband network in the Simpson family home to search for some information...."
At this time, Mogensha was already knocking on the door anxiously.
"Boss! There seems to be a lead. "
Sheyan said, "Come in.
"Come in. You're talking about the TV news, right?"
Mogensha nodded.
"That's right! There was no robbery. The murderer killed with a single blow, and the police couldn't find any traces. He was so cruel that he didn't even spare a baby. This kind of criminal is really rare. This case is most likely done by a T-1000. "
Sheyan nodded and said, "That's good news.
"This means that there's another piece of good news. At least so far, there shouldn't be any lurking Terminators. Otherwise, the T-1000 would've gone straight to the lurking Terminators to obtain information. Everything a Terminator does is based on efficiency."
"So when will it bite the bait?" Mogensha asked anxiously, "As soon as we came back last night, we released the bait through Dr. Dolittle."
"I don't know," said Sheyan, "but we must not relax the surveillance around Ms. Adele's house. Since the T-1000 prioritizes efficiency, I estimate that it will spend a certain amount of time collecting information, then optimize the target and route of the operation. It will only act after it has made up its mind! "
At this time, Reef suddenly spoke in the party channel.
"Boss, the people from Five Wheels are here."
Sheyan pondered for a moment and said, "Alright.
I'll come out right away. "
Now that the contract had been signed, the people of Five Wheels no longer hid themselves. Brooke, Corina, Hill, Mr. Darkness and the others who had dealt with Party Ace before all showed up one by one. Corina, in particular, had an ugly look on her face and a hint of resentment in her eyes. But when she saw Zi, she immediately shrank back like a mouse seeing a cat.
Strictly speaking, the contract signed between Five Wheels and Party Ace was very unfair, but there was no such thing as fairness in this world. After all, Five Wheels was the one asking for help. Hoarding a rare commodity and waiting for a good price was a common business practice.
Five Wheels should be grateful for their good fortune. If they had not met Party Ace, their two main forces would have been doomed to fail their Awakener promotion mission. The presence of Party Ace had prevented them from wasting all their previous efforts.
After seeing Mr. Darkness, Sheyan was not in a hurry. After inviting them to sit down, he served them pearl tea and said straightforwardly,
"I know why you're here. You want to complete the Awakener mission as soon as possible, right? The stronger the two of them are, the more helpful it will be for the next operation."
Mr. Darkness nodded and said,
"That's what I meant."
Sheyan squinted his eyes and replied.
"Although we've signed a contract, we still have to hold back. How about this? We can help one of them complete the Awakener promotion mission first. As for the other person's mission, we'll talk about it after my mission is completed. Here are six bottles of potions I've concocted. I'll give them to you for free. I'm not here to discuss this with you, I'm here to inform you of my decision. " If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
