Chapter 2 Tempting Visitors

Chapter 2 The Tempting Visitor

Standing outside the door were two strange women.

But there was another reason that made Jiang Qian alert.

On the white monitor, a spider with brightly colored fur was crawling down the edge.

Its eight eyes monitor the surroundings 360 degrees, and the colors on the spider's abdomen resemble a poisonous human face.

Jiang Qian had already recognized it.

Even though this little guy is less than 1cm long, he is actually very poisonous.

Peacock spider? How could this species unique to Australia appear here... Jiang Qian's eyes followed the movement of the spider, and at the same time he pulled out a miniature telescopic insect trap from the hidden slot of the watch strap.

"Since you came to my door, don't blame me for taking you into my pocket..."

This peacock spider was not slow. It jumped to the floor along the crack of the door and crawled into the house.

Jiang Qian held his breath and knelt on the ground.

The spider trap was opened between the fingers, and a group of flexible "hairy claws" stretched out.

Jiang Qian held a spider trap and followed behind the spider in parallel. Relying on his experience in catching spiders in the laboratory, he found the right moment and pressed the end button.

The spider trap makes a light "squeal" sound and attracts the prey! At the same time, it retracts its claws and completes the capture without damaging the target.

"Ding dong"

The doorbell rang again.

The captured peacock spider received double stimulation and twisted its eight thin legs crazily under the entanglement of its hairy claws!

The spider silk spewed out in response to stress adheres to the hairy claws, binding itself more tightly.

Jiang Qian found a small transparent empty bottle that Yu Xuan had left in the bathroom, and finally sealed the dangerous little thing in it and put it in his pocket.

After handling it properly, he returned to the door.

While re-examining the visitor through the surveillance system, he asked politely: "Hello, who are you looking for?"

A middle-aged woman's answer came from outside the door: "Ah, I am Teacher Tang's student, Li Fang. I have made an appointment to visit the teacher today. By the way, I will bring my daughter to ask some math questions... Are you Jiang Qian?"

There was such a person in Jiang Qian's mind, and the old lady mentioned him during lunch during the day.

He was said to be a former student who was also engaged in education. Because of his work, he was transferred to a nearby experimental middle school and came here specifically to visit his former mentor.

So he opened the door.

A mother and daughter stood outside the door.

The woman is dressed plainly, with shawl hair, and thick black-rimmed glasses. Her expression is slightly reserved, her hands are intertwined, and she is carrying a brown bag and a gift.

Standing next to her is her daughter.

The fair-skinned girl wore a simple purple dress, which outlined her young waist and unripe breasts.

The girl lowered her head slightly, and the broken hair on her forehead blocked her gaze, but it could not hide her fair and delicate skin and small pink lips.

"Are you Teacher Li? Come in quickly." Jiang Qian returned his gaze to the woman.

"A Qian? Oops, he's grown so tall... Come on, Xiaolin, call me brother." Li Fang didn't rush into the house and asked her daughter to say hello to Jiang Qian first.

"Brother Jiang." The girl named Xiaolin slowly raised her head, her beautiful eyes as bright as stars.

Jiang Qian's eyes moved slightly.

The girl looked at him with strong curiosity and hope, not as shy as her body conveyed.

"Come in quickly." Jiang Qian nodded and calmly led the mother and daughter through the door.

Probably hearing the noise, the old lady was walking out of the study.

She stood up straight, wore spectacles, and greeted the visitors gracefully.

There are not many old people who are still energetic in their seventies. Jiang Qian's grandmother Tang Hongmei is definitely one of the best.

"Ah Qian, you are taking sister Lin to your room to study." The old lady was led by Li Fang to the living room, and on the way she sent Li Fang's daughter to Jiang Qian.

"good."

So, sister Lin followed Jiang Qian to his room.

"Sit anywhere." Jiang Qianduo picked up a chair and stuffed the cosmetic bottle into the drawer.

"Thank you, brother."

"If there is any question you don't know, show me."

Sister Lin quickly put down her schoolbag, took out her homework book and rummaged through the folded pages.

Jiang Qian took the opportunity to look at the girl, from the remaining pen marks on her arm, to the indentation of the pen held by the middle finger of her right hand, to the slightly tanned skin under the tightness of the school uniform at her ankles...

This is indeed in line with the traces of life that a normal student should have.

But this is a girl with a pair of seductive eyes.

Judging from Jiang Qian's many years of experience in observing people, there seems to be experience in those eyes that is not what a female middle school student should have.

In the living room, grandma and the girl's mother were having a lively conversation.

"Brother, look," Sister Lin obediently pointed out the topic to Jiang Qian, "this, and this..."

When Sister Lin's eyes stopped falling on Jiang Qian, everything about this girl became normal again.

Jiang Qian simply put aside his other concerns and focused on the math problem.

"Oh, this geometry question is actually very easy. First, you need to erase your wrong auxiliary line. Let's try to change our thinking and see..."

He took a pen and recomposed the drawing on the scratch paper, explaining and marking the drawing at the same time.

Explaining mathematical problems requires patience and skills. A good teacher will control the rhythm of the lecture according to the listener's level of understanding and absorption, and promote the process reasonably to avoid the embarrassment of "listening to a book from heaven".

So far, everything seems to be going well.

Although during this process, Sister Lin's eyes always fell lovingly on Jiang Qian's side face from time to time...

Jiang Qian has no complaints about this - there is no way, boys are too good and will more or less delay other girls' homework.

Human nature.

"What other way?"

After solving the two big questions on the foldout, Jiang Qian breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought to myself that the current high school math questions are not very difficult. Even a college student like me can handle them easily.

"Brother Jiang, can we take a break?" Sister Lin's eyes were full of admiration, but her tone was a little shy, "Brother solves problems so fast that my brain can hardly keep up~"

She wants to pick me up. But I just want to make her into a specimen. Her eyes are so beautiful... Jiang Qian chuckled: "Okay."

After receiving a positive reply, Sister Lin stretched out contentedly, seemingly displaying the girl's slenderness and beauty inadvertently.

At the same time, Jiang Qian looked around Jiang Qian's room with slightly excited eyes, seemingly looking for an opportunity to start a conversation.

"Eh? Brother Jiang, is this you when you were a child?" Sister Lin stared at the family photo frame on Jiang Qian's desk and asked in surprise.

"Um."

"It's not fair to be so handsome when you were a kid~" the girl pouted, acting cute in front of Jiang Qian, "Then who is this?"

"my brother."

Jiang Qian's eyes scanned the photo, which also showed his parents and grandmother. Yu Xuan had not yet lived with them at that time, so she was not in this family photo.

"Your brother looks so fierce! By the way, he's not at home, right?" Sister Lin whispered.

"He is missing." Jiang Qian said calmly.

Sister Lin was obviously surprised when she heard this.

She subconsciously covered her mouth and reacted for a while before she apologized in a low voice: "I'm sorry..."

"It's okay, it's been a long time."

Jiang Qian said, got up and went outside to get something to drink to relieve the heaviness brought about by this topic.

When he came back, he found that Sister Lin's attention had shifted elsewhere.

Jiang Qian handed the lemon tea to the girl's hand and followed her line of sight. An already yellowed "Human Anatomy" was quietly leaning between the bookends.

"interested?"

"Hmm~"

Next, the girl asked a rather abrupt question: "Brother Jiang, do you think there are gods above humans?"

Jiang Qian couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he didn't hear anything similar about the differences in body structure between men and women.

"Not necessarily." He spoke calmly, without revealing any regrets.

"Not necessarily, why?" Sister Lin's eyes lit up, and she seemed to have a unique passion for this topic.

Her enthusiasm obviously inspired Jiang Qian to talk: "This is a question that can neither be confirmed nor falsified."

"How can you be sure that there is no higher life form above humans that has absolute control over the world? Maybe humans are just a model organism, like laboratory mice, baboons, and ants, raised and

observe."

"Perhaps there is a form of life around us that we cannot understand. Are they 'gods'? I don't know, maybe they cannot be accurately described as 'life' at all."

"People haven't discovered it, but it doesn't mean they don't exist. Maybe, they just don't want us to be aware of their existence."

The topic gradually deviates from the inherent knowledge.

Jiang Qian didn't intend to show off, but he continued the topic because he saw the pretty girl's eagerness for knowledge.

"Of course, this is just an example. After all, I can't describe a world beyond my cognition. That's why I say: not necessarily."

This answer unexpectedly satisfied Sister Lin.

Her cheeks were slightly red, her breathing was rapid, and she looked at Jiang Qian with admiration.

"Can we continue?" Jiang Qian opened his homework again.

"etc!"

Sister Lin hurriedly grabbed Jiang Qian's sleeve: "If there is an opportunity now, you can come into contact with their existence, and even obtain unimaginable and terrifying power! You just have to bear a little risk.

Would you like to try it?"

This assumption sounds like a kid's joke.

But Jiang Qian raised his chin and really thought about it seriously: "Then we need to do a risk assessment before we make a decision."

“What if the higher the risk, the higher the reward?”

"It depends on the specific parameters. Your description can be used for description, but it cannot form a basis for decision-making."

Sister Lin opened her little cherry mouth, and after a fierce ideological struggle, she finally gave up the argument.

She found that her advantages were useless in front of this cold brother.

"Hey, let science fiction novelists worry about this kind of problem." Jiang Qian kindly threw up the steps, "Let's continue. Is there any question that we don't understand?"

"Well...the next page is," Sister Lin responded obediently, adding a sweet "Thank you, brother~"

"You're welcome."

Jiang Qian turned to the next page of his homework...

Inadvertently, a small and delicate purple card fell out of the workbook.

Jiang Qian subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch it... The card fell between his thumb and index finger, and the three words "Invitation" in gold and purple background broke into his sight without warning.

At that moment, the body seemed to be hit by hot air and suddenly became weightless.

Then, this purple card seemed to be alive and integrated into Jiang Qian's palms! The hot touch extended inward from his fingers along the palm, all the way to his limbs.

In her blurred vision, Sister Lin stepped forward to hold his body that was about to collapse...

Next to my ears, there are intermittent and crying voices:

——"I'm sorry! If I didn't do this..."

Newcomer Shumiao is looking for cover!
