The leader's update 2/10

***

In late November, the temperature in Beijiang was already very low.

At 10:50 at night, the cold wind blew the fallen leaves and made a rustling sound in the alley that rubbed against the ground.

In the dark alley, a small and dilapidated store is as warm as spring.

The slightly old glass doors are covered with layers of mist, indicating the temperatures between indoor and outdoors.

Two figures, one big and one small, stood in front of the door, looking at the shop without a signature.

"Here?" Jiang Xiao looked up at Erwei.

"Yes." Erwei took a step and pushed the door in.

Jiang Xiao followed him in. Compared to the dilapidated outside, although the interior is simple and narrow, it is extremely clean and tidy.

Putting aside the invisible kitchen, there are only more than 20 square meters here, with six small tables placed, and there is no one, so it should be closed.

An old aunt over 50 years old, with a slightly fat body, short hair and curly hair, was sitting behind the wooden bar, counting her income for the day.

The little bell on the door made a crisp sound as the store door opened. The aunt raised her head and showed a kind smile: "We are already closed..."

The aunt's face froze. Looking at the tall figure, the smile on her face became more and more sincere. Her slightly cloudy eyes seemed to have a little bit of expression: "Child, is it on vacation?"

Erwei nodded gently, and a smile appeared on his cold face: "Aunt Yu."

That was... a warm smile.

Jiang Xiao had long known that the woman beside him was moody, but he had never seen her smile so warmly.

It seemed as if her cold aura was dispelled by this old and warm shop.

Her temperament will make anyone retreat three points, and will not let anyone equate her with ordinary people.

But here, Jiang Xiao saw an ordinary young woman with a human color.

"Boss Old Yu, you're working." The aunt hurriedly walked to the kitchen, muttering, "Do you still have cod at home? Hongying is here."

"Do you come here every time you have holidays?" Jiang Xiao asked.

"Yes." Erwei took off her crimson windbreaker and hung it on the hanger.

As soon as the simple movement was finished, an uncle with slightly white hair walked over with an induction cooker and a shabu pot and placed it on the small table of their choice.

"Okay, okay, okay." The uncle smiled silly and squatted down with the plug.

"I'll do it." Jiang Xiao took the plug and leaned down.

"It's pretty good." The uncle looked at Erwei and wiped his hands back and forth on the apron in front of him.

"Okay." The two tail raised their heads slightly and smiled, and their narrow and long eyes were bent into two crescent moons.

"That's good, that's good, open it quickly, wait a moment, come soon." The uncle said hurriedly, turning around and walking towards the kitchen.

After more than ten minutes, the pot of shabu steamed with hot air and made a gurgling sound.

A plate of salted peanuts, a plate of old vinegar and a plate of spinach were placed on the table.

Erwei looked at Jiang Xiao and said, "Wine."

Jiang Xiao was holding peanuts in one hand, as if she was infected by her style, and replied: "Car."

Erwei nodded, but did not respond, but just turned the pot into a rinse belly.

Since entering the old and warm hut, Jiang Xiao has no intention of starting the topic. He does not want to disturb the rare state of Erwei.

"You are going to the arsenal the day after tomorrow." Erwei said.

"Yes, the province seems to be not satisfied with the students' achievements in the National League, which has increased the difficulty of training." Jiang Xiao ate a peanut.

"Ha." Niu smiled disdainfully, not saying anything.

"Come on, kid, what are you going to drink?" The aunt took two cups, one empty and the other filled with wine, put them in front of Erwei, and said to Jiang Xiao, "You are... still young, are you?"

Jiang Xiao waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Just like Baishui."

"What a good boy, you have to drink less drinks." The aunt muttered and turned to get the kettle.

Erwei picked up the glass in front of him and took a sip. The spicy liquid filled his lips and tongue, burning all the way, and it went straight into his chest along his throat.

Erwei slowly put down the wine glass, felt the flame in his chest, and slowly let out a chill: "The star skills carried by the alien creatures in the arsenal are not suitable for you."

"It's okay." Jiang Xiao said casually, "I analyzed it carefully. Some star skills are quite interesting."

The second tail looked at Jiang Xiao silently and said, "You only have 9 star slots, so you shouldn't waste the empty slots on those star skills."

"Are you giving me suggestions? Do you care about what I put in my star slot?" Jiang Xiao asked with a smile.

Erwei nodded and said, "Yes, I will participate in every step of your growth in the future."

Jiang Xiao panicked and hurriedly changed the topic: "That 'hatred' is still good."

Two-tail: "Brass, useless."

Jiang Xiao picked up a skewer and said, "That 'nostalgia' is also good."

Erwei shook his head: "Silver, the halo range is too small and the effect is too low."

ah,

Jiang Xiao pursed his lips,

This is very uncomfortable, brother.

Looking at Jiang Xiao's appearance, the two tail said hoarsely: "Don't rely on using higher star beads to cover the lower star skills in the future to improve their quality. No one in this world will love you like them, regardless of life and death."

Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment, uh...it seems that she and Hai Tianqing have discussed it, and their ideas are the same.

Erwei glanced at Jiang Xiao coldly, but his voice still had no ups and downs: "You only have 6 star slots left, and your several star skills that surpass quality are enough for your early growth. After your galaxy period, choose from the golden star skills."

"You are too domineering." Jiang Xiao said helplessly.

Erwei picked up the wine glass, looked at Jiang Xiao, and took a sip.

"Mala steak, lamb skewers, and your favorite roasted cod." The aunt walked over with a plate and said as she put the teapot on Jiang Xiao's table.

Without getting a response from Erwei, the aunt didn't speak anymore. She looked at Erwei who was drinking, then looked at Jiang Xiao who was picking peanuts, and then she left quietly.

The boiling pot of shabu is covered with white mist.

Through the fog, Jiang Xiao looked at the two-tail's pair of phoenix eyes, made up his mind, and plucked up the courage, and said, "I don't want to join the army, I want to go to school."

The two-tail's eyes became sharp and they looked at Jiang Xiao, silent.

Jiang Xiao pulled down the collar of the hoodie, his body was very hot and his heart was very cold.

In this warm little shop, this more humane second tail adds a hint of courage to Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiaoqiang calmed down: "I want to be by my sister's side. Last time in the snow field, I saw the real danger and knew what kind of battle she would participate in as an excellent awakened person in the future. I want to protect her as much as possible."

Erwei's eyes darkened, he picked up the wine glass he had just put down and slowly placed it on his lips.

The shop that was already closed was empty. Although the white lights were bright, there was only Jiang Xiao's table.

There is no noise, only the ticking sound of clocks on the wall.

There was no noise, only the boiling sound in the pot.

Finally, Erwei broke the silence, hoarse voice, and said, "Then... eat."

"Don't eat anymore." Jiang Xiao hurriedly stood up and said, "There will be class tomorrow, and she is waiting for me to go back. It's too late, she will be worried."

The second tail nodded quietly, raised his hand, took out a rolled map from the pocket of the windbreaker hanging on the wall and handed it to Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiao asked curiously: "What is this?"

Two-tail's voice was hoarse and his movements were a little stiff: "Hold it."

Jiang Xiao looked at the drawings in front of him and looked at Erwei again, but found that she lowered her eyes and her eyes were no longer aggressive.

Jiang Xiao was not confused by such eyes. He saw her stiff movements. After thinking about it, Jiang Xiao took the map and whispered: "Go home early."

As he said that, Jiang Xiao turned around and walked out of the warm and bright shop, pushed open the glass door filled with mist, and a cold wind blew. He lifted his collar upwards and turned to look inside the house.

Erwei sat alone behind the small table, and the steaming mist in the small pot on the table covered her face.

I could only see her picking up the wine glass again, tilting her head and taking a sip.

When I put down the wine glass again, only half of it was left.

Jiang Xiao shook his head and closed the door. The slightly dark alley was quiet.

Looking into the distance, the lights of thousands of houses among the tall buildings lit up the warm light.

He remembered Hai Tianqing's instructions, maybe she was not as radical as Hai Tianqing said.

Or, this special environment increases Jiang Xiao's survival rate.

Jiang Xiao walked out of the dim alley and saw the dark car parked at the door of the alley.

He held his forehead helplessly and held his pocket in one hand. Sure enough, the car key was still here.
