Chapter 148. Baby

Arc 8: I am a dead bird.

---

---

Dead Bird Chen was a big black bird with great abilities. He could nod and shake his head, spin in circles, and flap his wings.

But when it comes to missions, limitations emerge.

Dead Bird Chen’s eyes were too small, and it’s almost impossible to notice when he blinks. I feel so tired.

It’s not Chang Qin’s fault. If the positions were reversed, he would give the bird food and water and play with it, but he would never think about anything else.

It’s hilarious, really.

A soul attached to a bird, are you living in fantasy?

System did it on purpose, like an old witch, casting a curse on him.

Chen You sighed. If Chang Qin knew that no one else could see this big black bird except him, he might become suspicious and seek confirmation.

But how to do it?

The rain kept falling, pattering and clattering, shamelessly making noise on the windowsill, with no sign of stopping.

After watching the second movie, Chang Qin got up and went to the bathroom.

Chen You flew over, but was blocked outside the door. He pecked at it with his beak.

O Lord! Please give me a pair of eyes that can see through.

Obviously, the Lord was very busy and couldn’t attend to Chen You’s obscene request.

He pressed his bird’s body against the door and listened. He could hear panting and whispering inside.

The man was speaking sweet nothings in a sexy tone.

He said, baby, open your mouth a little, I want to taste you, yes, just like that, so good.

He also said, be obedient, won’t let me.

Chen You was so frightened that his entire dead bird body was stiff.

Holy crap! That’s pretty good, one person singing a duet, it’s extremely smart.

He had already brainstormed the man talking and playing by himself, while he flapped his wings cheering beside him.

An audience who doesn’t want to go on stage is not a good audience.

Chen You wants to go on stage to perform with the man and soar together.

Sighing, he flew to the bedroom, originally just curious to take a look at what the room he would sleep in would look like.

But when he saw the huge bed, Chen You felt itchy all over and wanted to lie down and roll around.

And he did so.

The bed was really soft, and Chen You squinted his eyes in comfort. The thought of Chang Qin recognizing him and being able to sleep on it every day made him grin from ear to ear.

Suddenly, an angry roar rang out from the doorway, “What the hell are you doing?”

The feathers on Chen You’s body stood up, and he flew off the bed, trembling with fear.

Chang Qin looked at the bed quilt and saw a black bird feather on it. That’s just what the naked eye sees. Many things that are invisible to the naked eye are currently unknown.

He exudes a terrifying aura.

Chen You quickly flew out of the bedroom before the man could kill him.

Chang Qin pressed his throbbing temple. He was determined to teach the black bird a lesson, even if he didn’t kill it.

Question: Can a person catch a bird unarmed?

Answer: Others can’t, but Dead Bird Chen’s man can.

Don’t be unconvinced, the person has a big golden man.

Chen You’s neck was being strangled, and his two claws kept struggling, making painful sounds from his beak.

He almost died.

Chang Qin’s face darkened, “If you do it again, no one can save you.”

“Myna, did you hear that?”

Chen You nodded, crying. You strangled me and yelled at me. I’m sad. Just wait, I’m going to spank your butt until it’s twice as big.

The hand on his neck loosened, and Chen You fell to the ground. A sudden chuckle echoed in his head, “Hah.”

It’s system, watching a play for free and have fun.

Chen You was furious, “What the heck?! Is this funny?”

System said, “Very funny.”

Chen You said, “Scrammm!”

System said, “I would like to remind you, if the target can’t confirm your identity, you won’t be able to gain any evil points, and your mission progress won’t break zero.”

Chen You snorted, “You can’t scare me. I believe that sincerity can move mountains and break rocks.”

System said, “Pray.”

Chen You comforted himself, thinking that it was okay, all he needed was the right opportunity for Chang Qin to identify him.

When the time comes, they certainly both man and bird would go to hell together, bah, spend a wonderful night together!

Chang Qin raised his foot to kick, but Chen You flew up just before being kicked.

Damn, days of his life are unbearable.

My man has no love at all, so it’s so difficult to educate him at home.

How do you guide a twisted and perverted person onto the right path?

Chen You flew to the balcony and stood on the clothes drying rack. He felt hopeless and wanted to smoke a cigarette.

Sadness flashed in his small eyes, “Honestly, Old 4, I really need the back door to use.”

System said, “Don’t say I won’t help you. I’ll open the door for you for half an hour. Whether you can succeed or not depends on you.”

“Okay, okay, okay, thank you, Old 4!” Chen You asked excitedly, “Where’s the door?”

System said, “It has been opened for you.”

Chen You was confused, “You’re kidding me! Why didn’t I see it?”

System said, “Look at yourself.”

Chen You lowered his head and saw a pair of abdominal muscles.

“……”

It took a long time for Chen You to realize that his soul had been torn from the dead bird’s body and placed on ruby on Chang Qin’s body.

Fuck, this isn’t a backdoor, it’s a black hole, right?!

A dead bird can still say “da da“, but rubies are for decoration, utterly useless!

Chen You was exhausted. Either the system is smoking or its great aunt is coming.

System said, “The half-hour countdown has begun. All the best.”

Chen You didn’t want to talk to it.

Chang Qin was shaking out the quilt, preparing to put on new sheets, when his ruby started to behave strangely. He frowned and sat down on the bed to check.

The surface of the ruby was so hot it looked like it was about to explode. Chang Qin, with a stern face, rinsed it with cold water.

Chen You shivered. So cold! A-choo!

Chang Qin stared at the ruby and realized something was wrong. He was puzzled.

To hell with it!

Chen You moved left and right, up and down, saying, honey, touch me.

As long as you touch it, I believe you will feel my love for you.

Chang Qin’s expression was strange. He reached out and touched the ruby.

The ruby trembled with the force, like a young girl in her prime, blushing secretly.

Okay, that’s it. Let’s do it again. Be a little tougher on yourself. Chen You was full of anticipation.

Chang Qin touched the ruby a few times and couldn’t do anything else but use the shower head to rinse it.

He thought to himself, everything will be fine once that person arrives.

After more than a decade of holding it in, every part of his body became abnormal.

Chen You wanted to die. Even if this backdoor was given to him for free, he would never use it again.

At the end of half an hour, he returned to the dead bird’s body and caught a cold.

hehe.

If the big black bird couldn’t be recognized, then the ruby is even less likely to be recognized.

System said, “It seems your man doesn’t truly love you.”

Chen You said pitifully, “Go away, a-choo—”

System said, “Next time there’s a backdoor, I’ll leave it for you.”

Chen You gritted his teeth, “Thank you so much.”

System was busy, and before leaving, it played him the song 《It’s Not a Sin for a Man to Cry》.

“……”

Ruby returned to normal. Chang Qin changed into a black shirt and black pants, closed the balcony glass door, and changed his shoes before going out.

Chen You couldn’t get into the living room, so he continued squatting on the clothes rack, watching the car drive into the rain and quickly disappear at the gate.

Judging from the information on the screen, the target’s evil value was given by his stepmother.

That stepmother was quite capable. After marrying the target’s father, she appears gentle and virtuous.

The target’s father worked abroad and may not come back for a year, so the target was taken care of by his stepmother and suffered abuse.

The target’s father occasionally called, but the stepmother always answered the phone and said the child was fine and nothing was wrong.

Gradually, the target’s father started having an extramarital affair abroad and paid less and less attention to his son. The stepmother also had an affair at home, and the two of them lived freely.

Whenever the stepmother was unhappy, she took it out on the target, using methods so cruel and outrageous that it is appalling.

In such a despairing environment, it is impossible for a child to have a healthy mind.

By the third grade, the target’s personality had become dangerous. He treated his classmates, teachers, and even strangers who smiled at him with the utmost malice.

The target dreams were all scenes of his stepmother’s death.

One day, when the target returned from school, his stepmother was arguing with her lover in the living room. The fight started, and the lover choked her, losing control of his emotions and strangling her to death.

The target was standing outside the window. He saw his stepmother’s hands hanging down and being thrown away like trash, and smiled happily.

Chen You scratched his chest with his bird claws. Now the target was his man, and the impact of the past was still there. He didn’t know how to gain evil values.

Sending warmth or sending family affection?

Chen You flew to the window and reached out with his two claws. He inserted the sharp tips of his claws into the gap between the two windows and struggled to grab at both sides.

Poor thing, a person could easily get it open, but the bird even tried to crap out its best, it still didn’t work.

Chen You collapsed on the balcony, completely exhausted.

On rainy days, the air is damp and bubbly, as if water could be poked out.

There are a lot of cars on the road, and people won’t stop driving just because it rains.

Chang Qin steered the car, turned into a side alley, parked the car with ease, and walked into the teahouse.

The waiter greeted him with a smile, “Mr. Chang, please come upstairs. We’ve prepared some Longjing tea for you.”

Everyone in the teahouse knew that every rainy day, this handsome man with outstanding temperament would come over, order a pot of Longjing tea, and sit there for most of the day.

Chang Qin walked up the stairs towards the south-facing private room. He was met by several people, both men and women, and a family.

There was a young man behind, browsing something on his phone, with a bright smile on his face and a sunny aura around him.

His arm was grabbed, and the boy tilted his head, his distinct black and white eyes widening.

After only a second of eye contact, Chang Qin’s brows furrowed. It wasn’t him.

The boy felt pain and asked, “DaShu, what are you doing?”

Chang Qin took his hand back, put it in his trouser pocket, and left in silence.

The middle-aged man angrily said, “Hey, you’re an adult, how dare you bully a child? You didn’t even offer an apology. What kind of person are you?”

Chang Qin turned his head to the side, his face expressionless.

The middle-aged man felt an inexplicable tingling sensation on his scalp, and his voice became stuck in his throat.

Only after the man left did he breathe a sigh of relief, his back wet.

Looks like a gangster, but luckily there wasn’t any conflict.

“Ba, stop yelling out there. It’s embarrassing.” The boy clicked his tongue twice and muttered, “What a handsome DaShu.”

He stared blankly, “Ma, ba, that DaShu seems to be ErJie’s boss.”

(*ErJie: Second Sister)

The middle-aged man exclaimed, “Is this true? I’ll go, apologize to him right away…”

The boy grabbed his father and said, “Stop looking for trouble, or you might actually ErJie out of work.”

The other two people also felt the same way. Since the other party didn’t say anything, the matter was over.

The box was very quiet, without any noise. Chang Qin closed his eyes, listening to the rain and smelling the fragrance of tea.

He thought of the big black bird at home for no reason. The glass door to the balcony was closed, so the living room would not be dirty.

The smell of that black bird was even more unbearable than stinky tofu.

God knows, it took him a long time to get used to stinky tofu.

Chang Qin’s eyes suddenly opened.

He had received news that the person would appear in the near future and would approach him on his own initiative.

An 80% chance of students working in restaurants.

Therefore, he has personally taken charge of the recruitment of new personnel.

But there was no progress.

Could the information be wrong, or was it deliberately released to mess with him?

Chang Qin narrowed his eyes, a hint of coldness flashing across them.

He rubbed the rim of the cup, calculating something, a deep gloom between his brows.

It rained intermittently all day and only cleared up the next day.

As soon as the window opened, Chen You flew out. He was like a bird, with an instinctive love for the blue sky and trees, and a love of freedom.

Chang Qin stood on the balcony, watching the black bird soar across the sky, perch on the treetops, and then fly off towards the sun.

Very naughty, not well behaved indeed.

These words came suddenly, yet seemed to be forcibly erased.

Chang Qin was stunned. Suddenly, he caught sight of the bird droppings on the windowsill, and his face darkened instantly.

“Damn it, soiled again!”

As he flew, Chen You shuddered violently. He must have been discovered by that mysophobic man. Oh no, he couldn’t come home tonight or he would be beaten.

Whatever, he had already pooped. Besides, why can’t he clean up his wife’s poop? First get used to it, and after acknowledgement, it won’t be awkward anymore.

With this thought in mind, he flew out to have fun.

The sky was clear blue, like a huge mirror, so beautiful.

Chen You flew aimlessly, passing over trees, houses, and tall buildings. He saw a middle-aged woman walking down the street with a child on her back.

The child was about two or three years old, with big eyes and a cute face. He was wearing a light blue suit and a pair of cotton shoes.

It’s obvious his mother made the soles and sewed the uppers stitch by stitch.

The woman stopped at a toy store and pointed at the window. “Son, take a look. If there’s a toy you like, I’ll buy it for you.”

“Don’t like any of them? Mama thinks Ultraman is pretty cool. Didn’t you always say you wanted to hold one while sleeping?”

“Okay, okay. If you don’t want it, forget it. I’ll bring you here next time. Maybe you’ll find something you like.”

The woman walked on and passed a clothing store. She asked, “Son, your autumn clothes are too small. Can I get you some new ones?”

“It’s okay. Mama’s rich. The company even gave her a bonus this time. When your summer vacation comes, I’ll take you to see the ocean…”

As the woman spoke, she took the child into the clothing store. When she came out, she was holding two bags in her hands while holding the child.

Witnessing all this, Chen You thought of his mother.

When he was little, his mother would carry him on her back to play on the street. Although it wasn’t as prosperous as here, it still had a lot of fun and delicious things to do.

Chen You was flying overhead when he saw the woman taking the child to the cake shop, her eyes welled up, “My dear, why did you leave so early, you haven’t eaten a single bite of cake?”

“Mama always feels like you’re on her back.”

Chen You shuddered. No way?

He suddenly remembered that the child had turned his head toward him, and at the time he thought he was looking at something else.

After all, at that age, one is full of curiosity about everything in the world.

Chen You finally understood what was going on.

The child died, still lying on his mother’s back, wanting her to carry him every day.

After thinking for a moment, Chen You flew towards the child.
