Chapter 18 (2/2)

Tauro carefully looked, then smiled and nodded in approval, “They do look a bit like little monks. Qin lang, I am quite impressed that you could use such a way to distinguish between different b.u.t.terflies——But, your thoughts are a bit dirty. Saying the little monks were toying around really is a bit lacking in moral sense.”

“That’s pretty normal right? If the foolish male and the hated female in b.u.t.terfly Lovers can become a pair of b.u.t.terflies, then the monks in Brokeback Mountain could, of course, become b.u.t.terflies as well. You can’t discriminate against same gender love right? Even if they cannot be one, then in any case you can view it as back to back yeah?”

“You——Do you have anymore interesting stories? Talk about them.”

“……”

In the process of working and chatting, Qin Lang felt that the distance between him and Tauro got quite a bit closer, and that allowed Qin Lang to know that he still had a chance. It seemed that everything was going into the right direction.

As one specimen after the other were put on the display rack, the distance between the two of them were slowly decreasing as well.

“This is the last box of specimens. You settle this, because I have to do something and go out for a bit. There shouldn’t be any problems right?” After answering a phone call, she prepared to leave.

“No problem.” Qin Lang received the last insect specimen box from Tauro.

“When you leave remember to lock the door okay?” Tauro reminded Qin Lang before turning around and leaving.

Without the distraction of Tauro, Qin Lang quickly finished putting the specimens in the display rack.

But, Qin Lang was in no rush to leave. He was planning to wait a bit more, so if Tauro came back early, he was wondering if he could get “treated” for dinner. Just as Qin Lang said before, not asking for returns wasn’t his style.

Qin Lang wandered around in the specimen lab, but there was one unremarkable specimen that caught his attention.

This specimen seemed to have been finished recently. In the transparent box, it was the dried out mosquito!

Qin Lang’s perception was very sharp, so he was been certain that this mosquito was the mosquito that he killed by poison. But he never would have thought that it landed in Tauro’s hands, and it even became a specimen.

“Is it possible that Tauro detected something?” Suddenly Qin Lang felt a bit anxious.

Qin Lang wasn’t afraid of letting Tauro know his secret, but he was scared that Tauro would be injured or die because of curiosity. The Old Poison Guy had always been very fierce and firm. If the Old Poison Guy found out that Tauro knew Qin Lang’s secret, then Tauro would be in danger!

“Perhaps it was a coincidence?”

But after a while, Qin Lang slowly calmed down. He felt that he may be having groundless fears, after all, he and Tauro have not known each other for long. Especially this mosquito. It was gotten from their first meeting ever, and at that time Tauro shouldn’t have had much of an impression on Qin Lang.

“It must be a coincidence!” After some more thoughts, Qin Lang was certain of his conclusion.

to the specimen manufacturing station, the desktop computer’s indication lights were still on, and it seemed like Tauro forgot to turn off the computer. Qin Lang moved the mouse a bit, and the computer woke up from its sleeping state. As he was going to shut down the computer, he suddenly remembered about Anderson, so he opened up a browser, and typed in “Summer Sun City”, “Anderson”, “Pure Beauty Bay” and words like that into the search bar.

Very quickly, Qin Lang found some rather useful information.

But just at that time, Qin Lang received Hansan’s phone call. After a moment, Qin Lang said, “I’ll come right now.”

…

1) In Chinese, the name for “Papilio Demoleus” is “Da Mo Feng Die”, and the name for “Bodhidharma” is “Da Mo”, so in Chinese, the b.u.t.terfly’s name is actually something like “Papilio Bodhidharma”, and Tauro is making a joke on that.
