He heard a sound, very close and loud, so it was probably near where they were living now, but he only heard one loud bang, so it seemed that only one room collapsed.
"Zhuifeng's room next to the kitchen collapsed!" Shancheng said.
"Zhuifeng's room? Is she okay?" Huang Chen asked hurriedly, then hurriedly walked towards the place where the accident happened, and Nagato also hurriedly followed.
Shancheng trotted after him, "It's okay, Zhuifeng isn't in the room."
"That's good!" Huang Chen breathed a sigh of relief and quickly walked to Zhuifeng's room. Sure enough, he saw the little girl standing beside him with a somewhat conflicted look on her face.
The others also came over after hearing the sound, even Vicious stood aside curiously.
"Zhuifeng, are you okay?" Huang Chen walked forward and asked.
"It's okay." The little girl shook her head and looked at the ruins again. "It's just that the luggage I planned to take away every day was buried underneath."
"Let's look for it." Tiancheng said from the side, "The luggage is in the box, it should be still findable."
Zhuifeng nodded and walked into the ruins in a tangled manner. Longxiong, Songfeng, Kamikaze and others also went to help.
Mutsu had been planning to go, but there was no room for her to help. She just circled around curiously, "Why did Zhuifeng's room collapse?"
This is also the question that Huang Chen is puzzled about. Why did such a good room collapse?
There are also many collapsed houses in the deserted area behind the shrine. If it were nearby, Huang Chen would not find it strange, but this area is the place with better buildings in the shrine!
Jiang Feng followed in and took a closer look. Finally, he dragged out a pillar and placed it in front of Huang Chen. "This is the beam of the house. It's been eaten by insects."
"Insects?" Huang Chen frowned. Wooden buildings are most afraid of insects. Generally speaking, the wood used as beams and columns needs to be specially treated to make it insect-proof.
The pillar in front of me has so many holes on it, I don’t know how long it has been eaten by insects.
"Maybe there are also some in other rooms. I suggest checking them out," Jiang Feng said.
On the other side, Zhuifeng had already found his luggage. Luckily, nothing was damaged, so he could just share a bed with someone else tonight.
Everyone nodded and went back to check.
The result was not bad. Most of the rooms were not infested with termites. Some rooms had termites, but they were not to the extent that they affected the structure of the house.
"Maybe it was just an accident." Huang Chen concluded.
Nagato seemed to be lost in thought, "Is the shrine also saying goodbye to us?"
After tidying up a bit, everyone went out and went down the mountain towards the hot pot restaurant. After about an hour's journey, they arrived at this secluded place again.
Maybe it was because they came in the afternoon. There was no one in the store except the proprietress sitting behind the table, holding a small wine glass. Everyone was very surprised to see Huang Chen, "You're here again. What a coincidence! The other day, my friend came right after you left, and today, you came right after my friend left."
He raised his glass towards Huang Chen and said, "You're lucky! If you came tomorrow, there wouldn't be any beef hotpot. Shouldn't we have a drink to celebrate?"
Chapter 427 Let’s show off!
"I want to drink too, but I really can't drink. I get drunk as soon as I drink." Huang Chen said helplessly.
He could still drink some beer or red wine, but not white wine. Even the smell of it made him feel drunk.
What people drink in Harbin is naturally white wine, and you can smell it without getting close to it.
Although the wine had a strong aroma, Huang Chen was still unwilling to try it.
"What a shame." Harbin shook his head regretfully and stood up. "Is it still the same as the other day? You want the one with butter, and everyone else has clear soup?"
Huang Chen nodded, and everyone found a seat in the store. A moment later, Harbin came up with the stove. "Not many people are here today, and there's a lot of meat left. I was thinking if no one comes anymore, I'll just have to throw it away. I bought all the fresh meat."
Huang Chen rubbed his hands and watched the girl bring out the hot pot, followed by plates of meat and then dipping sauces.
Everyone's appetite was whetted, and without saying anything more, they started eating.
Eating is a sacred and serious matter, especially when eating delicious food. Such seriousness will turn into a kind of religious ritual.
The key is not to talk while eating.
Especially when eating with many people, it is not because of fear of disturbing the gods above, but once you start talking during the meal, some delicious food will be eaten by others.
So eating is a war, and everyone is scrambling to grab the food on the plate.
Huang Chen and the others were no exception. In short, no one was talking nonsense and they were focused on eating. But unfortunately, as humans, the inherent size of their stomachs sentenced those who wanted to eat too much to death.
Even a big glutton like Huang Chen was soon full and could only hold up his chopsticks and stare at the beef boiling in the pot. He wanted to take another bite, but unfortunately his stomach was already full.
Harbin, who was standing by, raised his head and drank a glass of wine, then laughed and said, "You can't do that. You can't drink alcohol in the first place, and now you can only eat this much. Haha!"
Huang Chen grinned, feeling a little embarrassed, "My appetite is considered big among ordinary people."
"Ha, even Mutsu eats more than you." Harbin pursed his lips and said disdainfully.
"What can I do... After all, Mutsu is a ship girl..." Huang Chen was helpless. He didn't even have the courage to compete with the ship girl in terms of appetite.
"Little weakling!" Harbin laughed.
Huang Chen raised his eyebrows, "Although my appetite is not that big, I'm still pretty strong."
In fact, his appetite is already outrageous. Generally speaking, even ship girls don’t eat too much on weekdays. The main reason is that the hot pot in this restaurant is delicious, so everyone eats a little too much.
"Hmm? Pretty strong?" Harbin raised his head with interest. "You're quite interesting, how about we go out and practice with you?"
"Forget it, I'm afraid of hurting you." Huang Chen waved his hand.
"Oh! You're really rude!" Harbin raised his eyebrows, stood up suddenly, ran to the door, and waved to Huang Chen, "Come here, come here, don't say I'm bullying you, I'll give you a hand."
Harbin had already said this, how could Huang Chen refuse? He shook his head and stood up, "Okay, it's just right that I'm full and need to digest the food."
Harbin was even more shocked after hearing this. "You... you're good! Interesting!"
The two walked to the door, and Harbin took a stance, "I won't bully you, of course I won't start the ship suit, nor will I take up weapons, and I'll let you have one hand, come on!"
Huang Chen stood there motionless, "Actually...why don't you activate the ship equipment? That way you still have a chance of winning."
"Are you trying to say that it's normal for a commander to lose against a ship girl who's activated her ship equipment?" Harbin thought he had discovered Huang Chen's thoughts and laughed, "I won't give you that chance. Come on! Your ship girls are all here, and I won't bully you too much, hahahaha..."
Huang Chen didn't say anything, but he inexplicably felt that Harbin looked a bit like a big devil when he smiled.
He walked over slowly.
Harbin pouted. "Your steps are full of flaws... Huh? What's going on?"
She threw a punch, but Huang Chen dodged it, which was obviously impossible.
"How about we just stop here?" Huang Chen felt like a good person.
"What a joke..." Harbin threw another punch, which was once again dodged by Huang Chen.
"You fellow..." Harbin's eyes were stern. "It seems I underestimated you. I must admit that I can't beat you with just one hand."
The girl stood still, raised her hands, and threw a punch, but it was just a feint. Then she slid to the side of Huang Chen and kicked him with a whip-kick as fast as lightning, so fast that ordinary people could not see it clearly.
"Ha, you really showed some real skills... huh?" Harbin confidently retracted his legs, but found that Huang Chen, who had been standing in front of him, was gone.
"how?"
A finger tapped lightly on her shoulder. Harbin turned around and saw Huang Chen standing behind her leisurely.
"How... did you do that?" Harbin looked as if he had seen a ghost. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that what happened just now was teleportation, right?
"It's just 30 hours of exercise every day." Huang Chen said calmly, "The key is not to use air conditioning in the summer."
Harbin didn't understand why, but felt very powerful. "I lost. I underestimated you."
Huang Chen put his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky, looking like a sage. "This is the commander's victory."
Harbin patted Huang Chen's shoulder and said happily, "You're a good guy. It would be even better if you could drink."
Huang Chen waved his hands hurriedly, "Drinking is really not good. It's bad for your health."
Harbin curled his lips and said nothing, just smiled and said, "Since I lost, naturally I have to give something. Well... you guys are all full, so how about this, next time you come over, I'll treat you!"
"This..." Huang Chen frowned, a little hesitant.
"What's wrong?" Harbin asked, "Is the food not tasty today?"
The girl stood in front of Huang Chen and asked casually. It was unknown how much she had drunk, but the smell of white wine was palpable as soon as she opened her mouth.
"It's delicious, very delicious." Huang Chen glanced at the people in the restaurant who had finished their meals and started chatting, "But today is probably the last time I come here..."
"What?" Harbin couldn't understand.
"Because we are leaving tomorrow, and we don't know if we will come back to Luonan in the future..." Huang Chen explained.
"Leaving?" Harbin gasped, feeling a slight toothache. "Why are you leaving when you're staying here so well? Isn't Luonan a good place?"
"I came here this time specifically to find Nagato." Huang Chen thought for a while and briefly introduced the situation of his port area.
Of course, not much was said. I just said that the port area was scattered in the past, and the people in the port area were separated, and now they are being found together.
That’s the explanation of the mobile port area.
However, Harbin's expression became increasingly strange as he listened, and he finally looked straight at Huang Chen, "Your name is Huang Chen, right?"
Chapter 428: Why didn’t you say it earlier?
"Huh? I am. Didn't I tell you before?"
Huang Chen said in confusion.
Harbin looked annoyed upon hearing this. "Oh, oh, oh, how could I have forgotten? This is troublesome... Why didn't I remember it?"
The girl scratched her head, walked around in circles in the open space in front of the door, and sighed from time to time.
Huang Chen frowned, also feeling strange, and couldn't help asking, "What happened?"
"You..." Harbin raised his head, glanced at Huang Chen, and then clapped his hands in annoyance. "What a pity! It would have been better if you had told me earlier. It's definitely too late now."
"What? What do you mean it's too late? Just tell me!" Huang Chen felt his mind was a mess. Why didn't this guy speak human language?
"Your name is Huang Chen! You should have told me earlier." Harbin seemed to have calmed down and was no longer as upset as before, but there seemed to be some confusion in his golden eyes.
"I told you a long time ago." Huang Chen repeated helplessly.
Harbin curled his lips. "What are you talking about? Why should I remember the commander's name if I have nothing to do? I mean you should have told me again when you came here today."
"So I introduce myself to everyone I meet, right?" Huang Chen rolled his eyes, then suddenly understood. "What you meant just now... have you heard my name before?"
Harbin nodded and looked Huang Chen up and down. "I do know. In fact, someone asked me to keep an eye on you... but it's a little different from what I imagined..."
Huang Chen narrowed his eyes, and suddenly had some guesses. Thinking about what he had just said about being too late, he asked, "Your friend who just left today... is a ship girl?"
"Of course it's the ship girl." Harbin said, and glanced at Huang Chen, "It seems you are quite smart. Yes, my friend is indeed looking for a commander named Huang Chen. I heard her say that her commander is missing..."
Huang Chen scratched his head awkwardly after hearing this, "It's not completely lost..."
"It's pretty much the same." Harbin shook his head. "Anyway, someone ran away and hasn't been seen for a long time..."
Huang Chen didn't explain. He just rubbed his chin and asked seriously, "How long has your friend been gone? Where did he go? Can we still find him if we go back now?"
"They left this morning. They must have left Luonan by now." Harbin shook his head. "But I know where they live, so it's not a big problem."
Huang Chen nodded and felt relieved for the time being. As long as he could find her, he was fine. He listened to the girl continue teasing, "And it is said that you were not a good person when you were in the port area before. You often didn't show your face and harassed the secretary ship... I really didn't realize you were such a person."
Huang Chen coughed twice and said, "This is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."
"Haha." Harbin waved his hand. "It's okay. You don't have to explain to me. I think you're quite pleasing to the eye..."
The proprietress said this as she walked towards the store.
They were talking outside, and the people inside couldn't hear them. They just thought that the two had returned from fighting. Fusang smiled at Harbin and said, "Your Highness is very powerful!"
"Very impressive!" Harbin gave a thumbs up, then waved to Huang Chen and walked to the kitchen.
Everyone was confused, and Nagato tilted his head, "What's wrong?"
"There's news about another companion." Huang Chen said.
"Who is it?" Tiancheng asked.
"Maybe it's Donghuang's ship girl? She's the boss lady's friend, and we just missed her." Huang Chen explained briefly.
Tiancheng shook his head regretfully, "Let's do this."
"Come here quickly!" Harbin poked his head out from the kitchen. "Hurry up, hurry up."
Huang Chen followed them to the large kitchen. Harbin walked to the back door and said, "I only remember that they were in Area C2. I don't know where they lived exactly. I need to look for the old letters."
