Chapter 36: Hai Dongqing's Shrine Maiden
St Andrews, located in the north of Scotland, and the town is named after the burial of St. Andrew, the patron saint of Scotland.
At a manor not far from town, an old Ford stopped, and a group of young men and women stepped out of it.
The car was rented, and the driver drove away slowly.
The man and woman looked very young, the man wore a gray scarf around his neck, and the woman had dyed short white hair.
They looked at the entrance to the manor.
The manor looked like it had not been inhabited for a long time, the walls were covered in moss, and the gates were mottled with rust.
There are no superfluous buildings nearby, only a forest in front, and the road is through the forest, winding, and the North Sea can be seen not far away.
Because it was already spring, the manor was also covered with a thick layer of dead leaves, and the smell of earth mixed with the smell of the sea filled every inch of land.
Teenage girl with short off-white hair...... Nero yawned and made a gesture of looking out - this place had been chosen by the maidess, but it wasn't until she arrived that she realized that it was a bit more than she expected, "It's too big......, isn't it?"
"I heard that it seems to be one of Miss Youye's industries......" The young man with a scarf next to him tilted his head and looked at a tall tower in the manor, and after a while, he sighed and said, "It's really fucking rich......"
Miss Nero, who was next to "One ......," moved her lips slightly.
How to say it.
Although she used to be one of the twelve divine generals of Michael's club, and she also had a lot of activity funds on hand that she could use every year, but for the divine generals, improving her strength is the royal way, and she didn't feel much about money - just when faced with the description of 'one', Miss Nero still couldn't help but show a hint of poverty.
Dazhe cheered up, "Let's go, the boss should be over a few days before the school starts." Miss Yuya said that she would clean up the place before that. ”
Miss Nero pursed her lips and yawned, "What's the hurry, there's a whole month to spare! I see a nice place in town, why don't we go and have a drink?"
Dazhe doesn't care about drinking, "I don't care, I really don't rush the cleaning work...... But can you? I'm afraid you don't have enough time...... Are you done copying the book?"
"Can you not ......tell such a sad story?"
"Let's clean it up first. ”
Dazhe smiled, then lifted Nero's back collar and dragged her into the manor.
......
......
The alarm went off at eight o'clock.
Chen Mingming opened his eyes, the curtains were tightened, and the desk lamp was still on. He sat up straight, pinching his eyebrows—and that night, he fell asleep on the table.
He glanced at the sketchbook, then closed it and put it back in the drawer.
After taking a shower, Chen Mingming opened the wardrobe. The clothes here are only two simple colors, and they are plain clothes without patterns, and they are neatly arranged in black and white.
As usual, after washing, Chen Mingming began to make breakfast for himself.
The slippers placed at the entrance to the living room did not move, and without knocking on his mother's door, Chen Mingming knew that she had not come back all night - it was not that his mother's life was disorderly, but that he had almost put his enthusiasm into work.
At this time, Chen Mingming's phone rang, and it was a call from Zhou Yusheng.
can be heard, Zhou Yusheng's voice has a trace of exhaustion.
"I took the time to discuss your mom about you yesterday......"
Chen Mingming sat quietly while looking at the clock on the wall directly opposite.
“...... Listen, you're an adult and free to choose, and even your mother can't force you to do things you don't like. Obviously, did you hear me?"
Chen Mingming said: "You, you also worked all night last night." ”
Zhou Yusheng on the other end of the phone was stunned, frowned, and said: "Recently, there has been a big case, and I am very anxious, and I am not the only one who works overtime." ”
Chen Mingming said indifferently: "Have you eaten breakfast?" ”
"Not yet...... Don't interrupt yet, you can't say that this matter is all done according to your mother's wishes!"
"Go get something to eat, stay up all night, eat something liquid, good for your stomach. ”
"I said don't interrupt, I'm going to tell you something...... Hey, hey, hey?"
With a tap of his finger on the airplane mode, Chen Mingming finished his breakfast little by little, then cleaned up by himself, washed the dishes, drained the water and put it back in the cupboard.
Go out as usual.
......
"Morning!
In front of the entrance and exit of the community, a pretty shadow suddenly jumped into Chen Mingming's sight...... It's Tara.
Chen Mingming looked at the girl in surprise.
In the spring, the weather has become much warmer, and Tara has put on a dress today, with straight legs, wrapped in thick cotton stockings, and then a white coat with a cup of coffee in her hand.
"Why do you know I live here. Chen Mingming asked curiously.
Tara stroked her bangs and smiled proudly, "Didn't I say it, I'm a monster." Youkai can do anything, don't you know! I said it yesterday, and I'm coming to you today. How about it, I'll keep my promise, right?"
Chen Mingming said indifferently: "Have you ever promised?" ”
Tara stepped forward, and the enthusiastic girl naturally grabbed Chen Mingming's arm with her hand, "I don't have class today, I'll accompany you for a day." Tomorrow you stay with me for a day. Then I have to work part-time on Saturdays and Sundays, and I have classes next Monday and Tuesday and I have to study for exams. ”
Chen Mingming opened his mouth, his brows furrowed.
Tara whispered, "I'll accompany you to find that person, and you...... Accompany me on a date. ”
Chen Mingming lowered his head and thought for a while, "Where to look for it, the school has already looked for it, and I don't know anything else." ”
"If you are looking for someone, you must go to a crowded place. Tara blinked and said, "There is a food festival in Dongle Plaza today, there are a lot of people, there may be a chance, I'll accompany you to find it!"
"No, I still have classes. Chen Mingming shook his head.
Tara hugged his arm and walked forward, the girl's voice was unmistakable, "You are going abroad, what kind of class are you going to take?" Come, follow my sister, I will definitely be able to feed you...... Well, find people!"
Life...... Once again, it was disrupted.
......
In front of the school building.
"It's what you want. ”
Zhao Le twisted his head, but his hand still gave the thing out...... There were some beads of sweat on his forehead, and he had to get up early for the things in his hands, and he had to travel for a long time, running all the way, and barely caught up with the time.
Dong Shaofeng smiled, opened the bag and took a look, "It's not bad, I also brought it with a thermos box, it has a future...... I'll be looking for you again if there's something. ”
With that, Dong Shaofeng walked up the stairs of the teaching building with the bag.
Zhao Le sighed, lowered his head and planned to leave.
It's just that the other two teammates stretched out their hands to stop them at this time, "Classmate Zhao Le, don't leave in such a hurry, and help me do something?"
Zhao Le raised his head and said angrily, "You guys, don't go too far...... You!"
I saw that one of the students raised his mobile phone at this time, and a photo on the mobile phone directly stabbed Zhao Le's breathing rapidly, and he subconsciously wanted to reach out to grab it, but the other person directly stopped him and grabbed him.
"You... What the hell do you want!!"
The student holding the mobile phone raised his chin, and the student who grabbed Zhao Le let go of his hand, and at the same time took out a few stacks of homework books from his schoolbag and slapped them on Zhao Le's body, "Top student, we need to use these homework in the next class, so please leave it to you, do it well~ What's the matter? Don't do it?"
Zhao Le gritted his teeth and grabbed the homework book tightly.
"By the way, the teaching office still wants us to write a few reviews, and you'd better write ours as well, and there are those with less wind. The teammate sneered, and then patted Zhao Le's face with his mobile phone, "Come on...... Small milk dogs. ”
The two left laughing.
......
......
In front of the square, there was a sea of people, and the smell of food wafted everywhere.
Tara was eating two skewers with relish in her hands, as if she had forgotten that Chen Mingming was beside her, and her eyes were excitedly looking back and forth between the stalls.
Only when he was 'wow, this is delicious!', 'This one looks good!', 'I'm about to run out of food!' will I say a few words to Chen Mingming.
Chen Mingming shook his head, and while Tara was watching the stall owner cooking food, he turned around and left the crowd.
Maybe she wouldn't have felt such incongruity if she hadn't suddenly barged in as part of his plan...... He thought to himself.
To find that person?
If it weren't for Tara's sudden thought, Chen Mingming felt that he would not have thought in this direction.
There was no doubt that he knew that he really cared about the man...... It was something he longed for even more.
Lonely, lonely, as if wandering away from everything, like an elf walking in the world, has been silently watching everything that happens around him.
The man seems to have a world of his own, but this world does not resist reality...... Quietness seems to be just the appearance of that person, and the deeper things of the internal force are what attract Chen Mingming.
It's just that he hasn't seen that person in the library since a holiday last year—and the last book that person reads, Chen Mingming has already finished reading.
is a book about antique porcelain.
Suddenly, Chen Mingming felt a feeling of drowsiness, and fatigue came, but this was not because he didn't sleep enough...... Chen Mingming's work and rest are very regular, and he has a very good grasp of exercise and rest, so he doesn't think that he will be mentally deficient.
But in the end, he suddenly closed his eyes and collapsed.
It stands to reason that he should have fallen to the ground - but apparently not, because a pair of hands caught him...... It was a man in a black suit: Wei Zidao.
......
"Forty-seventh. Wei Zidao glanced at Liu Minghao, who was his companion, at this time.
Liu Minghao nodded, and then pointed to a place in the square-in fact, it was a stairwell, and they were going to ask some things from Chen Mingming's body, naturally they didn't want too many people to see it.
Of course, they didn't know who Chen Mingming was, simply because on the gossip bronze mirror, Chen Mingming belonged to one of the more than fifty breaths that had been investigated.
Maybe these forty-seven can give some useful information, maybe not...... As the number of investigators increased and nothing was found, Liu Minghao even began to wonder if this guy with more than fifty breaths could really provide anything.
The two quickly helped Chen Mingming into the mall, and then flashed into the back stairwell.
"I'll do it. Wei Zidao put Chen Mingming on the stairs, said a word, and then stretched out his hand and began to check with the instrument.
The process was quick, but the instrument did not show anything - obviously, if there had been no error with the instrument, the individual being examined was just an ordinary person.
"Interrogate it. Liu Minghao said directly - of course, how much do you expect from these forty-seven goals...... It's like routine work.
But at this moment, the instrument suddenly jumped!
"It's demonic!" Wei Zidao suddenly turned his head at this time, "This kid has demonic energy...... But it's so weak that I almost didn't notice it. ”
"He's not a demon. Liu Minghao frowned.
Wei Zidao is a new agent, but Liu Minghao is already an intermediate title, and he has dealt with monsters a lot of times, and he himself used to be a temporary disciple of a certain Daomen, and he can still distinguish them with the naked eye alone, most of the demon clans.
"There are quirks. Wei Zidao nodded, then took a deep breath and pressed Chen Mingming's forehead with his hand.
But at this moment, a fierce demonic aura suddenly appeared-not from Chen Mingming's body, but from behind Wei Zidao and Liu Minghao!
The reaction of the two was also very fast!
As soon as he turned around, Liu Minghao took out a black metal rod, while Wei Zidao directly pulled out a strange silver and black revolver.
"What do you want to do to my boyfriend!"
With a hint of anger in a voice, the two of them saw at the same time a girl in a white coat who did not seem to be very old...... Tala.
At this moment, the girl has something that surprises the two.
She has a large number of blue-black, tattoo-like tattoos on her face...... And these tattoos are still increasing!
At the same time, where Liu Minghao and Wei Zidao were standing, or rather, the entire stairwell in this section, at this moment, on the ground, on the walls, and above the steps, there was a huge cyan circle of light floating.
Liu Minghao exclaimed, "Eagle Totem?"
The cyan totem circle on the ground did not have any intention of disappearing, and I saw Tara's eyes glazed at this time...... But at this time, Liu Minghao took out a document from his body.
Tara frowned, waved her hand, and made all the anomalies disappear, hesitating, "You are... Authority's?"
Liu Minghao nodded, and at the same time took out another box that looked like a mirror box and opened it...... This is a tool used to identify those Shenzhou transcendents who have already been registered.
DiDi – Retrieval successful.
I saw a few lines of text on the small screen.
Name: Tara.
Race: Shemale hybrid.
Occupation: Hai Dongqing's witch, a high-level monster......
