What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Xia Libing took the chopsticks and tried to clamp the vegetables, closing her hands as expected.

Nana has repeatedly praised Xiang Kun in the group that the chopsticks that Xiang Kun sent her are very useful. She used to accidentally not catch the dishes, especially when eating out and using pointed chopsticks. , Even more so. But with the chopsticks that Xiang Kun gave her, it was very handy, and the grip was particularly stable.

Nana even said that this pair of chopsticks may be one of the culprits for her five pounds of fat in recent months

And now the pair of chopsticks in Xia Libing's hand, although almost completely different from Nana's pair, looks much longer, longer than normal chopsticks, the back is square, and then it fades to the front round. Compared with the pair of chopsticks Xiang Kun gave to Nana, the heads of these chopsticks are much sharper, but in Xia Libing's hands, they are very flexible, labor-saving, and hand-to-hand.

In Xia Libing's view, using chopsticks to pick up dishes and eat is a "single-handed, high-frequency and laborious lever exercise."

So in terms of pure work, the lighter the material of the chopsticks, the closer the center of gravity to the fulcrum, the best. Of course, there are many other factors to consider when actually using chopsticks.

Although most people use chopsticks, in fact, everyone uses chopsticks in the same way. When they were young, parents would not pay too much attention to correct them. Anyway, as long as they can be clamped, it is just like writing with a pen or using a keyboard. Just like typing, there are also a variety of techniques, so for different people, different hands, and different postures, different chopsticks still have different adaptation levels, although they can all be eaten with food.

The way Nana holds chopsticks is more "non-standard". Similar to holding a pen, the ends of the chopsticks often cross when holding dishes. Therefore, the front end of the chopsticks can only be closed at most when the two chopsticks are parallel. With pointed chopsticks, it is difficult to close the front end completely, and it is often easy to clamp the dishes easily. Therefore, the chopsticks Xiang Kun sent her are flat-headed, and she uses them very smoothly, and the control of length and center of gravity is just right.

Xia Libing's way of holding chopsticks is relatively standard. The main reason is that the chopsticks on the top are moving and opening. No matter whether they are opened or closed, the tails are kept a little distance, so the pointed chopsticks are easy to use. Pointed chopsticks will not only be relatively lighter in overall weight, and easier to use, but the center of gravity is also closer to the fulcrum, making it easier to perform some more delicate operations such as picking fish bones.

"How's that? It's easy, right?" Xiang Kun asked with a smile as Xia Libing held the chopsticks and gestured.

Xia Libing looked up at him and nodded "Very well."

She thought to herself that it was obvious that when Xiang Kun gave chopsticks to different people, he always had the habit of "customizing" for different people. But judging from the feeling of using this pair of chopsticks, the degree of "customization" is a bit too high.

The method of holding chopsticks is suitable for pointed heads and flat heads. It can be judged by careful observation, but the chopsticks that Xiang Kun sent her are very suitable for length, center of gravity, and thickness. They control the clamping, opening and closing. The movements are very labor-saving and free, so much observation is needed.

At least Xia Libing believes that if she were to make chopsticks, regardless of the difficulty of making chopsticks, just collecting data on the habit of using chopsticks would require a lot of observation samples and detailed adjustments. It is best to have users cooperate, through the use of semi-finished products, feedback and fine adjustments. In this case, it is possible to achieve the current level of fit.

But Xiang Kun did not do this. When she left Tongshi Town a few days ago, she suddenly said that she would give her chopsticks. Now the finished product is available. Judging from the details of the chopsticks, it should be correct. And his performance is obviously very sure that this pair of chopsticks is perfect, and it will definitely fit his own way of using it. He hasn't gotten any feedback from himself. Why is he so sure and so confident?

Xia Libing took out the chopsticks and played with them for a while, then took them back into the box, and then put the box in the backpack that Xiang Kun had packed her with.

She has some other doubts, but she has to wait to go back and verify.

"Don't you order a drink?" Xia Libing asked, glanced at the American coffee in front of him.

"I just came here after dinner and I am full." Xiang Kun replied.

Xia Libing didn't ask him what he wanted to drink, but instead said, "Let's play a game."

"Playing a game" Xiang Kun was originally thinking about what excuse he would use to get Xia Libing to put the chopsticks in the bedroom after she returned tonight, try to be as close as possible to her bed, and suddenly heard such a suggestion. "What game to play" for surprise

Xia Libing took a one-yuan coin from his pocket and said, "Let's play guessing the coin."

Xiang Kun naturally noticed at a glance that the one-yuan coin lying in her palm was the one she had made before she had established an "extrasensory connection" with herself. A few days ago, she was asked to go before sending her to the train in Tongshi Town. .

Guess the coin

Isn't this a bonus

Lao Xia offered to ask for coins when she was in Tongshi Town, and Xiang Kun knew that she saw that Nana’s "lucky coin" had a problem, so now this is going to be verified directly

"Okay, how to guess" Xiang Kun smiled, "You can't just play alone, you have to win or lose to be interesting."

Xia Libing nodded, "Then lose once, please have a meal."

"OK." Xiang Kun smiled secretly. He didn't mind being discovered by Lao Xia that there was a problem with the coin. On the contrary, he was expecting Lao Xia to "discover" something from the coin.

So, guess the coin, he didn't plan to release the water.

Lao Xia asked him to guess a few times, so he prepared to invite a few meals, although he didn't like eating.

Xia Libing held the coin in her hand, turned her back to her back, and exchanged it. It passed from the right hand to the left hand, and from the left hand back to the right hand, and then put both hands in front of him with fists, let him guess.

Without the slightest hesitation or pretense, Xiang Kun directly tapped her right fist.

Xia Libing nodded, and said very calmly, "I lost." There was no feeling of surprise or annoyance, as she had already known the result.

After guessing four more times, Xiang Kun still guessed every second.

But Xiang Kun was a little funny. At the beginning of the third time, Xia Libing secretly replaced the "Super-Sense Connection" coin, stuffed the coin under his thigh and pressed it, and then replaced it with an ordinary coin.

Xia Libing's technique is actually very secretive and very fast, but Nai He Xiangkun has an "extrasensory connection" with the coin, and he can basically sense its exact location at any time, so he will know it as soon as it is replaced.

Although it is impossible to open the hangout by "super-sensing connection", Xiang Kun can still easily guess in which hand the coin is held by "strength".

He can switch the infrared thermal imaging visual mode to observe. Thermal imaging is not an x-ray, and cannot penetrate directly to see the situation in the fist. However, the blood flow of the fist holding a coin and not holding a coin is slightly different, so the heat When there is a difference, he can instantly find the difference between the two and make a judgment when there is a preset goal.

So just like guessing the coin of "super-sense connection", there is no hesitation or mistake.

After a total of five times, Xia Libing stopped playing with Xiang Kun, put the coins away, and said, "I owe you five meals. When will you be free to tell me, I will prepare the ingredients and come to my house." ."

Xiang Kun was stunned for a moment, and asked for confirmation, "I will ask, if you have prepared the ingredients, who will make it"

"You." Xia Libing said simply, resolutely, and naturally.

"Hey, hey, it's not right." Xiang Kun pointed at himself, then pointed at Lao Xia, showing five fingers, "It's me, I won you, five meals."

Xia Libing nodded, "Yeah, I invite you to dinner. I bought the ingredients, please come. You don't want to eat raw, so you can cook it and eat it. Salt, oil, other seasonings are also available, pots and other kitchen utensils. Yes, you bought them the last time you came. If you are missing something, you can tell me and I will prepare it in advance. Of course, you can eat it raw."

Seeing that Lao Xia said this seriously and naturally, Xiang Kun couldn't laugh or cry, "You are not Lao Xia, are you Yang Lao San in Lao Xia"

Xia Libing's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at him with a "surprise" expression, "how do you see it?"

Xiang Kun laughed, Lao Xia was an excellent grimace maker. She deserved to be cousins ​​with Laosan Yang. Most of the time, she was cold and alienated, but the funny genes in her bones were still in the same vein. However, through various sensory information monitoring, Lao Xia still has no major emotional fluctuations from the beginning to the present, at least from the physiological feedback of heartbeat, breathing, smell, and micro-expressions. This is the same as before. same.

In comparison, Xia Libing's mood will really change significantly, and it is still during the meal.

"You are Xiaokun, right?" At this moment, a forty-year-old lady who was across a table diagonally across from her stared at Xiang Kun for a few times, then suddenly got up and walked over and asked him directly.

Xiang Kunxun went to the prestige and made a surprised expression. He seemed to have just seen her, and then turned into a surprise "Ah cousin, such a coincidence"

This middle-aged lady is the daughter-in-law of Xiang Kun's father's cousin, that is, his cousin's wife. It hasn't been long since she entered the cafe.

In fact, Xiang Kun had noticed her when the cousin came in, but according to Xiang Kun's judgment, the last time she saw herself was during the Spring Festival last year. Now that I have changed so much, let alone ordinary relatives, even my mother didn't recognize him the first time I saw him. I guess my cousin would not recognize him, so he didn't plan to take the initiative to say hello.

But I didn’t expect that my cousin really recognized it

"I went to the table with my aunt during the second and third year. I heard her say that you are now personalized and have a shaved head. I just saw your head and I remembered what my aunt said, and I was thinking that you should come back for the New Year. Then the more I look at it, the more I feel familiar. I didn’t expect it to be you.” The cousin was talking, while her eyes were swimming between Xiangkun and Xia Libing, her eyes gradually narrowed, seeming to hide her burning burning. The fire of gossip.

"Yeah, I just arrived at Citong in the afternoon. Cousin, are you here for a drink with your friends?" Xiang Kun stared at the table where his cousin came, with the same gossip engraved on his face. The middle-aged lady smiled friendly and nodded in greeting.

"Yeah, some of our old classmates and sisters came out and talked. It's a coincidence that this beautiful lady is so beautiful, yes" the cousin asked, looking at Xia Libing again.

Xiang Kun pointed to the backpack placed at Lao Xia's feet and said, "This is my friend's sister, who works in Erythrina. When I came back this time, my friend asked me to bring her something."

"Oh, my friend’s sister, it should be taken care of, you should talk about it, talk about it, you shouldn’t go back to work until the ninth day of the year, remember to find time to play at home after a long time, you haven’t been to my house for a long time Come on, your nephews have been greedy for your red envelopes for a long time.” The cousin smiled and said a few words, then went back to her classmate’s table, and from time to time handed over a "Come on", "I am optimistic about you", "Hey hey "The expression.

Xiang Kun looked at the phone with some helplessness, and said to Xia Libing, "It's too early, I'll take you back. How do you make arrangements tomorrow night, did you go to your third uncle and aunt's house?"

Xia Libing got up with the backpack Xiang Kun had brought her, and replied, "On duty."

"It's worth the night" Xiang Kun asked.

"It's worth the night." Xia Libing affirmed.

"Okay, I'll see if I will send you some supper later tomorrow night," Xiang Kun said.

"Good." Xia Libing nodded.

The two of them walked out of the cafe. Xiang Kun, who was supposed to send Xia Libing back, looked at her and told her to see you later, and then walked directly in the opposite direction.

Xia Libing's expression did not change a bit. After saying goodbye, he still walked to the residential area where he rented, and did not ask Xiang Kun or any surprises.

The community where she lives is not far from this cafe, and it can be reached in about 15 minutes on foot, so she didn’t call a car and walked directly with her bag.

After walking for a while~www.novelmtl.com~, she picked up her phone and saw a message from Xiang Kun on WeChat, "Someone is following you, don’t look back, continue walking home, let me see what he is going to do ."

Xia Libing's expression was still very calm, and after returning with an ok expression, she continued to walk home without rush.

Not far away, the young man who used to take shelter from the wind and playing with his mobile phone in the outer corner of the coffee shop looked up and saw Xiang Kun’s back disappearing at the corner of the street. People send messages.

However, what he didn't know was that Xiang Kun, who walked to the corner, paused for a while, confirmed that the man was not looking at the side of the car through the glass reflection of the roadside car, and then came back.

As soon as he got here, before entering the coffee shop, Xiang Kun noticed this man who was as cold as a quail falling into the water while playing with his mobile phone.

Because he found that this man seemed to be playing with a mobile phone, but in fact his attention was in the direction of the cafe. But at that time he didn't know that this person was coming for Lao Xia, so he didn't care too much. But when he and Lao Xia came out, they noticed that the man’s secret glances were locked on them, and his body was obviously tighter. They immediately realized that this man was outside the cafe, just staring at Lao. summer.
