1. Tenant

"Well done!"

Seeing himself on the computer screen, who was holding a gun and trying to do something dirty, but was blown up by a teammate's grenade, Lu Mingfei's fingers struck hard on the smooth keyboard, as if in a final struggle.

He took off his earphones and looked at the people around him speechlessly, playing CS. He was tired of being killed by his teammates every time.

The young man sitting next to him looked to be in his mid-twenties, wearing thin-rimmed glasses. He just smiled and handed over the Nutrition Express at hand.

"I just said I'm not good at playing games."

"I really can't teach you." Lu Mingfei took it skillfully and didn't forget to complain.

Gu Chen next to him was probably the only person he could complain to in his more than ten years of life, because among his three attributes, the one that Lu Mingfei felt most close to was his 'lack of temper'.

They first met when he was in high school. When his family went to the mall to celebrate Lu Mingze's birthday, he immediately fell in love with the bearded man wearing a suit jacket and riding a video game motorcycle because he was so honest.

It's too dishonest.

At that time, his uncle and aunt took the little fat man to pick out birthday gifts. When he had nothing to do, he stood next to the dish and looked at it. Not to mention, if you ignore the sparse stubble of this man, his face can be considered handsome. This guy is standing astride him.

When I was on the motorcycle, my buttocks were very high, so I just stared at the motorcycle on the screen, twisting my body around and bumping into each other.

However, he exchanged so many coins, and Cai also loved to play. Lu Mingfei was a little envious, and then a handful of game coins were stuffed into his hand.

Later they became friends.

After drinking half of Nutrition Express, Lu Mingfei licked his lips and looked forward to it, "Do you still want to play? Let's play two more games of StarCraft?"

"Next time." Gu Chen looked at the time and said, "The renter is coming to see the house."

"Oh." Lu Mingfei was somewhat reluctant to give up. It was still early and he really wanted to play for another two hours.

But Gu Chen is an adult. Although he seems to be doing nothing, he is actually not busy...

I heard that he had worked in a winery before, so he had some ways to get cheap wine. Last time this guy got beaten up in the bar because of fake wine, Lu Mingfei went to his house. It was an old villa with a retro style, and was built around it.

The gray rose-colored wall is covered with ivy.

He looked at it at the time and couldn't tell what he was feeling. He probably thought that his only friend was someone who was prettier than him, but he was actually quite young. He wore a few suits all day long and wore electronics.

A good-for-nothing good-for-nothing, as shabby as himself. But I didn't expect him to live in a villa.

Fortunately, Gu Chen was covering his nose stuffed with toilet paper and said in a muffled voice that he was looking after a house for a relative who had been abroad for many years.

Lu Mingfei twitched the corner of his mouth and showed a smile that was uglier than crying. He didn't know whether it was because he felt sorry for his friend who was beaten up, or because he was dissatisfied with his thoughts just now, so he loudly said that maybe the rich relative had forgotten about this incident.

, this house is cheap for him, Lao Gu.

Gu Chen grinned.

Lu Mingfei felt that there was something special between them because they were similar to some extent, so as friends, they always hug each other for warmth.

Gu Chen had shaved his beard now and looked gentle and reserved. Lu Mingfei felt that he had redeemed the other person and made him look like a human being.

"Don't play too long. If you go back too late, you might get scolded by your aunt." Gu Chen waved his hand and gave Lu Mingfei two more hours before leaving.

Lu Mingfei silently put on his headphones and sunk into the leather seat.



April is still a bit chilly, especially with the light rain.

As soon as Gu Chen got off the bus, he saw from a distance a girl holding an umbrella standing in front of the black-painted fence gate. From the back, she looked like she had a good figure.

She wore a beige single windbreaker, revealing the white skirt underneath, and her fair and shapely legs wrapped in white stockings, then white canvas shoes and boat socks, holding a black suitcase in her hand.

It wasn't raining heavily, and the splashed water droplets mixed with the dust on the asphalt road, making small dirty spots on her shoes.

Gu Chen held his suit jacket over his head and trotted over to meet him. He took out the key and opened the lock, talking without hesitation.

"You're just here to rent a house, right? I'm so sorry. It rained and I came back late."

"Yes, Xia Mi. I didn't wait long, only about twenty minutes." The girl chuckled.

She is very pretty, but she is not like those pretty girls who would say polite words in this situation. She did not say "nothing" politely, but emphasized the time in a nonchalant tone, which was quite embarrassing.

, but also straightforward and likeable.

Gu Chen choked and quickly opened the door.

There were some small trees planted in the yard, and the few leaves were splashed with raindrops. When the girl was walking in with some difficulty carrying her suitcase, the guy had already run into the villa.

"You don't need to change your shoes, right?" Xia Mi said as he walked in.

Gu Chen didn't care. He hung up his coat casually, pinched the front of his shirt with his fingers and tugged on it, feeling that the moisture that had entered him dissipated.

Xia Mi seemed to be looking at the villa, but his peripheral vision was scanning him.

The villa is very spacious, with the same history as the mottled walls outside, and the furnishings inside also look old. The old sofas in the living room with yellow sponges exposed from the holes are an example.

But luckily, everything is quite clean and there is no peculiar smell.

"The second floor is the bedroom." Gu Chen held the mirror frame, "I sleep in the master bedroom. The second bedroom and the other two guest rooms are empty. The bedding and everything else have been washed. I sprayed disinfectant with my own hands to ensure it is clean.

No one lives there now, so you can pick whatever you want. You should be a high school student, so I recommend you rent a second bedroom because you want to be close to the study for reading, and if it rains, it’s close to me for fear of thunder..."

"Okay, okay." Xia Mi couldn't help but raise his hand and pinch his eyebrows, interrupting his words.

It was obvious that he was very skillful with his words, and he didn't even take a breath during this call.

"Let's sleep next." Xia Mi said simply. With a push of his finger, the suitcase slid towards someone, full of hints.

Unexpectedly, someone excitedly beat his palms and went upstairs, "Wait for me to get the contract!"

"..." Xia Mi.

When the footsteps were far away, the expression on her face faded, and her fingers gently passed over the old sofa and the bronze lamp on the pillar, her thoughts turning darkly.

There is nothing wrong with the house or the things inside. There is nothing wrong with the person except that he seems to be out of sorts. It doesn't look like he has anything to do with Odin.

But why is the aura of Odin here so strong? In her perception, this can no longer be said to be a mark, but almost Odin's home, except that he is not here.

It was like this place suddenly appeared when she didn't expect it.

This is why Xia Mi chose to live here, she wanted to find out what was going on.

And when she saw the cheerful landlord coming down the stairs, she made a bold guess.
