Locke: Daily intelligence, I'm going crazy finding bargains!

The door to the incubator wasn't closed properly, leaving a crack.

Luo Xing didn't think too much and pushed the door open, still humming a little tune as she planned how to cultivate her relationship with Xiao Pal.

The door opened, but it wasn't Little Pal who came into view.

Bai Qiuxue stood by the window with her back to him. She had taken off her white coat and draped it over the back of the chair next to her, revealing a black tank top underneath. Her skin was very fair, and she had no excess fat on her body.

Luo Xing's mind went blank; the scene before him was too stimulating for him.

He quickly realized he couldn't keep watching, so he prepared to close the door, turn around, and leave, pretending he had never been there.

"Could you zip up the back of my zipper?"

Bai Qiuxue didn't even turn her head, her voice lazy, probably mistaking Luo Xing for Xu Yiqiu.

Luo Xing's hand rested on the doorknob, caught in a dilemma.

Unable to resist, he glanced up at Bai Qiuxue's back again, his mind racing as he considered how to respond.

If he closes the door and leaves now, Bai Qiuxue will see him as soon as she turns her head, and then she won't be able to clear her name even if she jumps into the Yellow River.

He didn't want to be labeled a "voyeur" as well.

"What are you dawdling for? Come here now."

Bai Qiuxue urged, her tone tinged with impatience.

Luo Xing took a deep breath and thought, "It's just zipping up a zipper. I'll just zip it up and run away, pretending nothing happened."

He released the doorknob, his steps as light as if he were walking on cotton, and moved step by step behind Bai Qiuxue.

The zipper at the back of the vest is positioned between the shoulder blades; the zipper pull is very small and is caught in the fabric.

Luo Xing reached out, and just as her fingertips touched the zipper pull, she realized her hand was trembling.

Damn, it didn't even shake when fighting a top-tier Pokémon.

He pinched the zipper pull with two fingers and gently lifted it upwards.

its stuck.

Luo Xing applied more force, but the zipper didn't budge. He applied even more force, and his finger slipped, accidentally scratching Bai Qiuxue's back.

"hiss"

Bai Qiuxue winced in pain, her shoulders hunching over: "Xiao Qiu, what are you doing! You're so clumsy."

She turned her head and met Luo Xing's gaze; the air seemed to stand still.

Bai Qiuxue's pupils dilated, and her expression was quite interesting.

Luo Xing quickly took a step back, raised his hands above his head, and forced a stiff smile.

"Well, Mr. Bai, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

After saying that, he turned and ran.

"Luo Xing! You stop right there!!"

Bai Qiuxue's angry roar came from behind.

"You scoundrel! I'm going to kill you today!"

Luo Xing took two steps and then braked suddenly to a stop. It wasn't that he suddenly understood, but that he saw Bai Qiuxue turn around and the strap of her tank top slipped down, exposing a large area of ​​her fair skin to the air.

Luo Xing slapped his hands over his eyes, parting his ten fingers just enough to create a small gap before forcefully closing them again.

He freed one hand and pointed in Bai Qiuxue's direction: "Teacher Bai! Mind your image!"

Bai Qiuxue looked down and her face instantly turned red to the roots of her ears.

She grabbed a white coat from the back of the chair and held it to her chest, her voice shrill and sharp: "Close your eyes! If you dare open them, I'll gouge your eyes out today!"

"It's closed! It's closed!"

Luo Xing covered her eyes and backed away, with only one thought in her mind: run.

He turned and rushed toward the door.

"Bang!"

His forehead slammed solidly into the door.

It hurt. Luo Xing covered his forehead and squatted down. A hot stream flowed down his nose. When he touched it, his hand was covered in blood.

He looked down at the blood on his hands, then looked up at the tightly closed door in front of him, which had been shut from the outside.

On the other side, Xu Yiqiu was leaning against the wall outside the door, her hand still on the doorknob, her expression quite subtle.

She was woken up by the noise inside the house, and groggily walked over and pushed the door open a crack.

Then she saw Bai Qiuxue holding a white coat, and Luo Xing covering her eyes and spinning around.

Xu Yiqiu, with great foresight, closed the door.

As for why the door closed at the exact moment Luo Xing rushed out, perhaps it was just a coincidence.

Inside the incubator, the scene was quite chaotic.

Luo Xing squatted on the ground, one hand covering his bleeding nose, the other hand raised in a gesture of surrender.

Bai Qiuxue was already dressed, buttoning every single button from bottom to top. She held a magic wand in her hand, pointing it at Luo Xing's forehead, where a ghostly blue magical light shone.

Her face was still red, but her eyes had turned cold.

Luo Xing stared at the tip of the staff, extended a finger, and gently pressed the tip down.

"Teacher Bai, using magic on people in the city will get you wanted by the association. Please calm down."

"Do you think I'm afraid?" Bai Qiuxue's lips twitched, and the tip of her cane lifted back up.

Luo Xing quickly added, "I really thought you were asking me for help, otherwise I wouldn't have dared to do it. Look at how badly I've ended up."

He pointed to his blood-covered nose, looking extremely miserable.

Seeing his miserable state, Bai Qiuxue's anger subsided considerably.

"Speak, what brings you here?"

"I came to see Little Pal, and also to invite you to dinner tonight. I'll cook myself." Luo Xing stood up from the ground and casually grabbed two tissues from the side and stuffed them into his nostrils.

He took out the slip of paper with Douzi's home address written on it from his pocket and handed it over.

Bai Qiuxue took the note, glanced at it, gave a soft snort, folded it up, and stuffed it into her pocket.

"Little Pal is in the inner room. He has a very strange personality. Whether you can form a contract with him depends on your own abilities."

Luo Xing nodded, walked past Bai Qiuxue, and pushed open the door to the inner room.

The lounge was small, and little Pal was dozing on a soft cushion, his little ears drooping, his injuries already healed.

Hearing the noise, Little Pal's ears perked up, and he opened his eyes a crack, seeing Luo Xing.

It stared at Luo Xing for two seconds, then relaxed. It remembered this person; this was the person who had saved it before it fainted.

Luo Xing squatted down and took out the food he had prepared in advance from the star chart.

He placed the food in front of Little Pal, then sat down against the wall, neither rushing to touch it nor making a contract.

Luo Xing sat there quietly, taking out a high-grade Gulu Ball from his star chart to prepare for the contract.

Little Pal stopped moving and stared at the star chart in Luo Xing's hand, a strange sense of familiarity welling up inside it.

The aura emanating from the horoscope reminded it of a distant, but very vague, scene.

Little Pal dropped the food and jumped into Luo Xing's arms.

Luo Xing paused for a moment, then looked down at the little guy in his arms who kept rubbing against his clothes.

Little Pal's head bobbed against his chest, making soft whimpering sounds.

Luo Xing understood its meaning and summoned the star chart.

The star chart floated in mid-air. Little Pal looked up at the star chart, his pupils reflecting a black light.

A resonance was created between the astrological chart and Little Parr.

The star chart began to rotate, faster and faster, and the light grew brighter and brighter.

A jet-black ball slowly emerged from the center of the star chart and landed in Luo Xing's palm.
