Chapter 9 Teapot
Many things that Qin Zhong found in the Manchurian archives cannot be understood by normal thinking. Even if it is a coincidence, it can't be done casually, and many of them are evidence of decades of humiliation of the Chinese nation, such as the crimes against China by the Japanese.
These things can't help arousing Qin Zhong's patriotism. In addition to studying those strange events, it is also necessary to carefully study these historical evidences, which may become a sharp weapon for Chinese people to have a showdown with the Japanese in the future.
He asked himself whether he had ever been patriotic or not, and finally came to the conclusion that he was still very patriotic.
At this time, Qin Zhong's door was knocked. Originally, there was no one in the whole building, except himself, that is, the big tooth and Uncle Fang may come.
"Who is it?"
"Curator, it's me!"
Listening to the sound, Qin Zhong suddenly recognized that it was a big tooth. I don't know why the big tooth is so motivated to go to work at this time.
As soon as Daya entered the room, he carried a mop in his hand: "Curator, I have cleaned up the whole building. There is a lounge on the first floor, which is said to have been closed for a long time. Do you think it is necessary to clean it up?"
Qin Zhong came late, so he was not very clear about such a place in the building: "Is there such a place in our building?"
"Well, it is said that the curator asked Fang to close it at the beginning, and it seems that your father specifically asked to stay at that time." Big teeth still have a better understanding of the situation of the whole museum.
Qin Zhong was stunned and turned to his senses in a blink of an eye: "Well, I really don't know about this. If you are free, please help me clean it up." He put down the Manchuria file in his hand. After all, Qin Zhong's greatest advantage is that he never forgets anything he has seen, as long as he wants to remember, nothing can be forgotten.
Qin Zhong and Daya hurried downstairs and looked at the rusty lock. When they opened the door, it was damp, as if something smelled of moldy.
"You clean up here first. I'll go to the office to check the computer. I guess it's time to reply to the report. After all, our department is under the jurisdiction of the District Archives Bureau, and we still need to do a good job." Qin Zhong spoke and handed over all the lounge on the first floor to Daya.
In the process of going upstairs, Qin Zhong repeatedly thought about what was said in the file. He himself studied history and knew a lot about Manchuria history, but strangely, he didn't know many things said in the Manchurian archives at all.
After Qin Zhong finished his work, he finally figured out that he still had to start from this archive and the first thing in Grandpa's notes, and slowly finish those things that Grandpa had not done.
After a while, he ran up from downstairs with big teeth: "Curator, curator, it's not good, the girl in the church is here."
Qin Zhong wondered why this guy showed such a flustered move to Mona: "She will come. You don't have to do this."
"Yes, she came. Anyway, you don't know. Just go out with me to see it. Because of their big teeth, it is difficult to speak. If you talk too much, there will always be long saliva at the corners of your mouth, and you have to pull back hard.
Qin Zhong raised his eyebrows and grinned, "Look at your success. A woman scares you like this. Isn't that Mona? Really."
Big teeth feel very different about Qin Zhong's attitude. In his eyes, Mona is really a shrew like what the old ghost said, and he has also suffered losses on Mona.
Qin Zhong heard that Mengna was coming. Politely, people helped him and always went out to greet him.
Downstairs, I saw Mona wearing a small white gauze skirt, a flesh-colored silk stockings and red ladle-shaped leather shoes underneath, which actually caused an explosion.
Qin Zhong was also a little surprised when he saw it: "Miss Mona, is this?"
"How does it look good?" Of course, Miss Mona felt different when she saw Qin Zhong.
This suddenly made the big teeth a little confused. He secretly looked at Mona with his spare light. He didn't know why Mona's eyes were so sharp. A simple beam of eyebrows stirred up and made the big teeth tremble all over.
"Miss Meng, Mona, why don't we go to the lounge for a while? I'll make tea for you." Big teeth said tentatively.
Qin Zhong didn't know what was going on between Mona and Big Teeth. Why did Big Teeth see Mengna like a mouse seeing a cat? He kept his curiosity in his heart and did not ask directly, but he was still polite to guide Mona into the lounge on the first floor.
Entering the lounge, he picked up the teapot on the coffee table and hurried out.
As soon as Qin Zhong entered the room, he saw that the messy lounge had been cleaned up by the big teeth, the doors and windows had been opened, and the moisture in the room was exhausted. It felt really good.
"I didn't expect that there would be such an elegant place in your archives. It's really nice. It wouldn't be better to add some big speakers here and put some high songs."
A priest's daughter will be so hot. No wonder the big tooth will retreat from the woman: "Big tooth, what's between you?"
"Well, that guy, at Christmas, bread was distributed in the church, which was God-given food. This guy was insatiable and took two people's share alone. I didn't scold him and kept him?"
Qin Zhong couldn't help shivering at Mengna's answer. He really didn't expect this girl to be like this.
Just as the two were talking, they entered the room with a teapot tremblingly. Qin Zhong thought that it was because his big teeth were afraid of Meng Na, but when Qin Zhong took the teapot in his hand, he suddenly felt that the water in the teapot was as cold as ice, but when he listened carefully, the water in the teapot was still splashing, and there was steam at the mouth of the teapot.
Qin Zhong also widened his eyes. What's going on? Is this teapot made of any special material? He didn't dare to think much. He calmed down, resisted the temperature of the teapot, opened the lid of the teapot, and saw that the water inside was really boiling.
"Hey, what's wrong with you two? Really, big teeth, you don't care about pouring tea?" Mona is really a cheerful woman, and her words are unobstructed.
Qin Zhong waved his hand and whispered, "Don't talk. No, this teapot is very strange. Come and touch it." He talked to Mona and asked her to reach out and touch the teapot.
Mona pouted: "What do you want me to touch such a hot teapot?"
"Touch it!"
Mona didn't know what Qin Zhong and Daya were pouring down. She carefully reached out to touch the teapot and looked at the cold sweat and frightened expression of the big teeth. It seemed that she also felt something was wrong. At this time, Mona's hand also pressed against the wall of the teapot: "Huh? It's strange why this teapot is cold. The water in it is obviously boiling!"
The three of them let go of their hands and watched the water in the teapot keep boiling and the steam keep evaporating. By the three of them pouring the tea in the teapot into the teacup, the water in the teapot has also evaporated clean, and even the tea leaves in the teapot have just been put in.
"Curator, you see, this tea is like this. When I first poured water into it, the tea instantly opened leaves, but I didn't expect that the water was still boiling after pouring in, but the teapot became as cold as ice. Look at my hands!" Big teeth stretched out their hands, and big teeth' hands had begun to change. The ruddy palms actually became black and dry.
Qin Zhong stretched out his hand and saw that his hand had not changed, and Mona's hand had not changed. This is strange. Is it poisonous on the teapot?
"What did you do just now?" Qin Zhong asked Daya.
Wet tears flowed from the thick lenses of the big teeth: "I just took the teapot to wash it. After brushing, I poured the tea leaves into the water and brought it over. You see, it has become like this now."
"Where did the tea come from?"
"I usually drink it."
"Where's the water?"
"It's also in my room."
Qin Zhong seemed to understand something: "That should be the problem of the teapot." Without waiting for Qin Zhong to finish his words, Big Teeth stared at the teapot and sat down. With his slowly withered hand, he pointed to the teapot and couldn't speak.
