Chapter 924 Xiaolu’s call

"It's like it's frightened by something."

“I dare not move at all.”

"But this is too weird."

"Isn't it?"

Zhang Bo looked confused. "And it was clearly struggling before, but after I put it on the deck, it started struggling desperately again."

"It was very strong. In the end, it took only me, my uncle, and Ah He to hold it down."

"I was almost brushed by the fish's tail."

"Tsk, tsk, that really gave me a scare."

……

"Oh I see."

Zhuge Yun suddenly shouted, "Such a big yellow croaker might have become a spirit, so it originally wanted to escape by pretending to be dead, but when it found that this trick didn't work, it started struggling desperately again."

Zhang Bo: …

Seems to make sense?
Although I have never heard of yellow croaker pretending to be dead...

……

"If that's the case, it's a really smart fish."

Zhao Lu was inspired by this.

"Didn't I catch it?"

Zhang Bo brags about himself out of habit.

Then, his expression changed, "In fact, the moment the fish was caught, I seemed to hear some sound."

"Tong, s'all?"

“It’s a similar sound anyway.”

"But at that time, my attention was focused on the fish I caught, and I didn't listen carefully at all."

"When I tried to listen to it later, I could already hear the sound."

"So I guess it's probably the sound of the waves."

……

What?
Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment, then his head dropped slightly, the shadow cast by his forehead hair obscuring the faint smile in his eyes.

Sea boy...?

Then he thought that if Hai Tong did this, Bai Ma would probably start muttering angrily again, and the smile in his eyes deepened a little.

Let's go see them in the sea again next time if we have the chance.

……

"Forget it, never mind."

Zhang Bo shook his head indifferently, "Just think of this fish as a gift from the sea god."

"I am a man favored by the sea god."

"Hahaha~"

……

Zhuge Yun and Zhao Luzheng couldn't help but roll their eyes.

"Where's the face?"

Zhuge Yun's gaze returned to the computer screen.

……

Xiao Xiao began to pack his luggage.

Poseidon?

Actually, you can say that.

……

"Buzz~"

Seeing the caller ID, Xiao Xiao was a little surprised. He answered the call, "Hello."

"Hello, Master Xiao, I'm Xiaolu."

A girl's cheerful voice came from the phone, "It's been a while since we last contacted each other, you haven't forgotten me, have you?"

"……No."

Is his memory so bad?

"That's good."

"Master Xiao, have you returned to school?"

"Just arrived a while ago."

"Oh, Master Xiao is from Yanjing. Is his home close to the school? It should not be far..."

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows, "Little Deer."

"Ok?"

The girl's voice was very innocent.

"If you have anything to say, just tell me."

This girl who kept talking about this and that was taking a lot of effort to think, and he was tired of listening to her.

"Hey? Hey."

The girl laughed awkwardly and said, "I'm just planning it for a while, right?"

"Cough cough."

"Then let's get to the point."

"Here is the thing, Master Xiao, can I ask you to do my friend a favor?" "My friend encountered something strange."

"Well, because the last time we met... I later heard Zhang Bo and the others tell me a little bit... that is why people call you Master Xiao..."

The girl stumbled a little while ago, and seemed to be trying to organize her words. "So, when my friend told me about this, I immediately thought of you."

"After all, Master Xiao is still a very impressive title."

At this point, the girl smiled.

She herself did not expect that when she saw her friend distressed about the thing she complained to her, Master Xiao's name appeared in her mind.

……

On the one hand, she laughed at her own fantasy. Maybe it was just a joke, even though Zhang Bo and the others sounded very similar to it.

On the other hand, she felt that... she had a possible person to turn to but she didn't give it a try because of some concerns... she felt unwilling no matter how she thought about it.

So, in the end she made the call.

"Well, it's not like I necessarily need your help or anything."

"Just...can you listen to what's bothering my friend?"

The girl's voice was full of earnestness and sincerity. "Of course, if you can help my friend, that would be great."

……

"what's up?"

Xiao Xiao was brief and to the point.

"Hey, can I?"

The girl was very happy, "Thank you, Master Xiao!"

"It's hard to explain over the phone, let's talk about it in person."

"I'll call my friend and ask her to tell you about that incident."

"After all, some details still need to be known by the parties involved."

"But, Master Xiao, don't worry, I will explain it to her clearly, and you just need to listen first."

"It won't cause you any trouble."

……

"……Um."

Xiao Xiao reached out and pressed his brow helplessly, as he was annoyed by the girl's slightly talkative nature.

He only said one sentence, "Then please contact your friend and send me the address and time for the meeting."

"Okay, Master Xiao, I'll get back to you soon."

"Wait for my news!"

"……Um."

Xiao Xiao originally wanted to say that there was no need to be so anxious, but then he thought that maybe her friend’s situation was more urgent?
So, he swallowed the words and just responded.

……

Xiaolu's reply was indeed very quick.

Xiao Xiao had just put his clothes into the closet when his cell phone screen lit up.

"Master Xiao, at three o'clock, there is a cafe near Metro Line 4."

He picked up the phone and moved his fingers slightly, "Okay."

……

"Dingling bell~"

The door of the cafe was pushed open, "Welcome."

"how many?"

"We're looking for someone."

A clear and sweet female voice sounded, "Ah, I found it."

"Master Xiao~"

……

Xiao Xiao looked up and saw the girl looking at him with a bright smile on her face.

He couldn't help but laugh, "Little deer."

……

Xiaolu pulled the girl next to her to sit down opposite Xiao Xiao, "Master Xiao, this is my friend, Pei You."

"Xiaoyou, this is the Master Xiao I told you about."

"Hello."

"You, hello."

The girl's voice was low, revealing some obvious nervousness and panic.

Because she lowered her head, her fluffy long curly hair covered most of her face.

"Do I look fierce?"

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but touch his face.

He's not the boss.

……

"No, Master Xiao."

Xiaolu waved his hand, "Xiaoyou is just shy."

"Once you get familiar with her, she'll relax and talk a lot."

"To put it simply, he is a bully at home."
