Chapter 947 A Subtle Sense of Connection (Second Update)
Xia Chujian was startled and almost blurted out something that would ruin her "personality"!
Fortunately, she reacted in time and just opened her mouth without making any sound.
Xia Chujian was busy writing on the small whiteboard.
[Xia Chujian]: Commander Qin, what's wrong with you? Didn't you sleep all night?
Qin Wanglan murmured, "I didn't sleep for more than one night. I feel like I haven't slept for countless years."
Xia Chujian: "...".
She couldn't respond to this, the other party's rhetoric metaphor was too outrageous.
He hadn't slept for countless years, and he was gone long ago.
Xia Chujian pursed her lips and continued to write.
[Xia Chujian]: Then why don't you go back and have a good rest, Commander Qin? I will prepare your meal and you can pick it up on time.
Qin Wanglan spoke, his voice was hoarse and low, which he himself didn't realize.
"... Is your aunt really called Hua Yixin?"
Xia Chujian was stunned for a moment and replied on the small whiteboard.
[Xia Chujian]: My name is Hua Xiaoxin, and my aunt is of course Hua Yixin, absolutely true.
She is Hua Xiaoxin's aunt, what does it have to do with Xia Chujian?
Xia Chujian was very calm about this lie.
Her previous name "Hua Xiaoxin" came from the name "Hua Yixin".
She originally wanted to use Hua Yixin's name as her own name, and the food shop was called "Yixin Food Shop".
Later, she felt weird, as if this name should not be associated with a food shop.
So she had an idea and changed it to Hua Xiaoxin.
Xiaoxin Food Shop, it sounds much more reliable.
Facts have proved that Xiaoxin Food Shop is indeed a good name for a store, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it makes a lot of money every day!
Qin Wanglan looked infinitely emotional and said, "Then what kind of dishes did your aunt teach you?"
Xia Chujian was a little stunned at this time, her big eyes were wide open, as if she was a kitten with its fur standing up, or a puppy that was about to go crazy.
Qin Wanglan looked at the changes in Xia Chujian's expression, and always felt that the next moment, this girl who couldn't speak would probably be provoked by him to speak...
But Xia Chujian still held back.
Her expression changes naturally reflected her mood of wanting to speak but not being able to.
After a while, she lowered her head and wrote on the small whiteboard.
[Xia Chujian]: My aunt is not a chef, she doesn't teach people to cook, I learned it secretly...
It seems that this excuse is not sincere.
Qin Wanglan did not mean to blame, and smiled lightly and said: "Well, it doesn't matter. So what dishes did you learn secretly?"
"You said before that your parents died, so what about your aunt?"
Xia Chujian didn't expect Qin Wanglan to go directly from "stealing dishes" to the family background she made up for herself.
Luckily, she kept a hand and didn't mention her aunt.
Now that Qin Wanglan asked, Xia Chujian began to explain (now) (edit).
[Xia Chujian]: My aunt and I separated, I don't know where she is.
Qin Wanglan suddenly clenched his fists.
He quickly put his hands behind his back and asked again: "So, are you here to find your aunt this time?"
Xia Chujian was slightly stunned.
This is a new direction she had not thought of.
And this direction is more and more good the more she thinks about it.
Because her aunt left home, she went out to look for her.
She couldn't find her aunt because she got lost.
No problem.
Xia Chujian nodded vigorously to indicate that Qin Wanglan's guess was correct.
As a result, Qin Wanglan said again: "Give me your address and the direction your aunt went out, and I will help you find it."
"I... will help you find it myself."
Xia Chujian looked at Qin Wanglan suspiciously, thinking, how could someone be so nice to her?
It's okay to help her find the way home, but also to help her find her aunt? !
Something is wrong, Xia Chujian thought keenly, and went through Qin Wanglan's every move just now in her mind.
Especially when recalling Qin Wanglan's expression when he looked at the three words "Hua Yixin" she wrote on the small whiteboard, Xia Chujian had an idea in her mind that seemed very absurd at first glance, but was very reasonable when she thought about it carefully.
Could it be that this person really knew "Hua Yixin"? !
Maybe it was not the Hua Yixin she had seen in the underwater laboratory in the game, but a person with the same name and surname?
However, what if it was the same person?
At this time, Xia Chujian had a different idea about the situation when she had passed the compulsory course in school.
She remembered that the school's statement about the compulsory course was that it was history that had happened, but it was presented in the form of a game.
Can it be said that there really was a person named Hua Yixin in history?
But she also remembered that no matter whether it was the history books she had studied since elementary school or the gossip and news she had read on the Star Network when she grew up, she had never seen a female scientist named Hua Yixin.
She just felt a little regretful at this time that after she passed the game, she did not have time to ask Qi Lu to search on the Star Network to see if there was a person named "Hua Yixin".
If it really exists, why is this dusty history unknown to outsiders?
Under the big data of Star Network, maybe someone still knows and shares the situation at that time.
And she also tried her classmates, none of them had experienced the same level as her.
Now, in this strange country of affection, someone actually has a different feeling about the name "Hua Yixin".
This is the first time that she has found a subtle sense of connection between this inexplicable place and the world she came from.
Xia Chujian didn't want to miss this opportunity.
She wanted to seize this opportunity!
Her mind was spinning rapidly, and suddenly she wrote down this line on the small whiteboard.
[Xia Chujian]: If I say, I don't know where my home is, I don't know where my aunt has gone, and I can't find my way home, do you believe it?
Qin Wanglan suddenly looked up, his eyes narrowed into a slit, his fists clenched tighter, and the stiffness of his whole body became more obvious, as if a person had turned into a stone pillar in an instant...
Xia Chujian also stared at Qin Wanglan closely, staring at his every move, afraid of missing a detail!
But Qin Wanglan's loss of composure was only a moment.
He obviously came back to his senses quickly, looked at Xia Chujian, smiled slightly, and said: "Such an incredible thing, do you think I will believe it?"
After that, he turned around and left without stopping at all.
Xia Chujian curled his lips and watched him enter the mechanical military vehicle.
The door closed, as if shutting out the whole world.
At this time, the diners waiting nearby dared to gather around and asked her in a chattering voice.
"Boss Hua! Will you still sell fried dough sticks tomorrow?!"
"We will! We will buy it for one iron coin!"
"Boss Hua, you won't really set the price higher than one iron coin in the future, will you?!"
"Boss Hua, you can't do a one-time deal! We have to make a long-term profit, right?"
...
Everyone was talking at once, with only one central idea, which was to hope that she could continue to sell fried dough sticks at the price of one iron coin!
Xia Chujian retracted her gaze, smiled and nodded at these people, and then began to clean up the oil pan.
The oil was only used once, and it still looked clear and transparent.
She was reluctant to throw it away, and planned to keep it and cook for herself.
As for the fried dough sticks, she didn't want to fry them for the time being.
That fragrance, that effect, was so good that it scared her.
Because that was a taste that even her aunt couldn't make...
After cleaning up the store, she saw that there were still diners lingering in front of her door.
Xia Chujian took out a small white board and wrote on it: The dough for frying dough sticks this time came from the Wangcheng Army Command Center. Without their special dough, I can't fry such delicious dough sticks.
She said this just to make these people give up and not want to continue selling dough sticks.
Unexpectedly, those diners looked as if they had suddenly realized something.
"So it came from the Wangcheng Army Command Center!"
"No wonder!"
"The people in the Wangcheng Army, the food they eat is not produced in our country of relatives!"
"I heard that they are all shipped from far away, and we can't buy them here!"
"Oh! So, one iron coin is really a conscience price!"
"I'm so disappointed! There was a chance that I could eat the kind of food that the senior officers of the Wangcheng Army ate with just one iron coin, but I gave up!"
"If I can get another chance like this, I want to buy ten!"
Xia Chujian listened carefully and became even more surprised.
So the origin of the "fried noodles" is so precious?
When there is a chance, I must ask Qin Wanglan.
Xia Chujian thought so, but she felt that she didn't have many opportunities to talk to Qin Wanglan.
Because he seldom came to her food shop. Although he had ordered food, he sent mechanical guards to pick up the food every day.
Just when Xia Chujian racked her brains to get in touch with Qin Wanglan more, she found that she didn't need to find opportunities herself.
Because in the next few days, Qin Wanglan came to pick up the food every day.
He always came at a certain time, and waited until all the other people who picked up the food left before coming to talk to Xia Chujian.
Xia Chujian had to respond with a small whiteboard every time, which was miserable.
For a moment, she felt that it was a bad idea to pretend to be dumb.
If she could talk, communication would be much more convenient.
But thinking again, even if communication was convenient, it would not be difficult to make others alert and defensive, and there would not be so many heartfelt words.
For example, now, Xia Chujian felt that if she hadn't given this Qin Corps Commander a weak "mute" personality at the beginning, he might have suspected her and arrested her long ago.
Xia Chujian could not forget the first time she met Qin Wanglan in front of Lao Mo's butcher shop.
His scrutinizing eyes made her unable to let go to this day.
Xia Chujian continued to use the small whiteboard to talk to Qin Wanglan in a casual manner.
Gradually, Qin Wanglan's words revolved around Xia Chujian's "aunt" - Hua Yixin.
On the third day of coming to pick up the meal in person, Qin Wanglan seemed to ask casually: "Xiao Xin, your aunt is best at doing experiments instead of cooking, right?"
Xia Chujian had been very alert in her heart. When she heard Qin Wanglan finally ask this question, she immediately made a surprised expression, her eyes widened, she looked at Qin Wanglan, then lowered her head and quickly wrote on the small whiteboard.
[Xia Chujian]: Commander Qin, what did you say? ! I don't understand!
She deliberately showed a look of shock and fear, and denied it flatly.
This is the second update. There will be a new update after 5:00 in the evening.
