Chapter 70: Reminders and Attempts
Su Ya floated out of the pantry lightly, holding a large tea tray, and served fragrant tea to Su Shijun and Zheng Qing.
Then she stood on one side with the tea tray in her arms and looked at her young lady expectantly.
Su Shijun picked up the teacup, took a sip, and a surprised smile appeared on his face.
"Very good," she glanced at the little fox girl with praise, "It's almost eight or nine points of Su Man's skill." ”
Zheng Qing secretly complained in his heart, if you know how much tea and dew this little girl wastes in order to make tea, I don't know if you will be happy or not.
Su Yaxiao's eyes narrowed into a slit, and the little tail that was originally curled up at the waist involuntarily drooped out, and it rose under the skirt, trembling and trembling.
Su Shijun looked away, pretending not to see the gaffe of the little fox girl - she was not Su Man, nor was she the old lady in charge of etiquette, and she had always been very lenient in the management of the little fox girls under her.
"Go ahead, go out and find Su Man, and tell her that I will grant you half a day off as a reward for your perfect work today. The witch chose a reason, and easily sent the little girl out.
Su Ya quickly saluted, then hugged the tea tray and left the living room happily.
Silence fell back into the room.
After a long time, the tea dropped a finger, and Su Shijun finally spoke again, picking up Zheng Qing's previous answer.
She looked at him very seriously and said, "Those elves are not dangerous, they are lucky...... I'm lucky to have met you. If it weren't for you, even if Mr. Duzem had the potion that Mr. Duzem had mixed with the royal jelly of the sand time, they wouldn't have survived for so long. ”
"It is precisely because of the group of elves you raised that I have determined my thoughts...... Let me know why I was able to successfully condense the witch fetus at that time. ”
Su Shijun didn't care about his vulgar joke, which made Zheng Qing breathe a little relieved in his heart. But then her words hooked up the curiosity in his heart.
"What do you think? you know Dr. Duzem too?" the young student tried to make his inquiry seem polite, but he couldn't hide the urgency and curiosity in his tone.
Su Shijun didn't answer his question directly, but squinted her eyes, looked at the fading sunlight outside the window, and continued her previous explanation: "...... Let me know why the council is so eager to get a young wizard who has just entered the first year, and let me know what our great headmaster has left behind this school. ”
"The winter hunt before the holiday, and today's Kuroshio...... It's all very good proof of that. ”
As she spoke, the corners of her mouth hooked, revealing a mocking smile:
"Originally, I thought it was fate to meet you at that time...... Reality tells me that fate is nothing more than a bad idea in the mind of a bad old man. ”
The witch's voice grew lower and lower, becoming inaudible.
"What is it?" Zheng Qing leaned forward slightly, and asked in an urgent tone.
"The ...... who can break the rules" Before Su Shijun's words fell, this secret conversation between the two was interrupted by a sudden noise.
"Peng!"
A crimson flame suddenly exploded in the center of the meeting room, and the position where the flame burned was impartial, just between the sights of Su Shijun and Zheng Qing.
Through the burning crimson, Zheng Qing could vaguely discern a vague, familiar face and a very clear mouth.
But due to the burning and distortion of the flames, Zheng Qing could not get more information from that face.
"The Kuroshio is unusually surging, please go to the Beta Town Management Committee as soon as possible to support the defensive operation. ”
Fireface's voice is very mechanical, as if it were a low-level puppet.
Its tone was firm: "Please keep your promise. ”
For a moment, Zheng Qing could see a hint of surprise and a hint of annoyance on Su Shijun's face, but soon, these expressions were drowned out in her calm answer.
"Got it. The witch puffed up her mouth and blew into the ball of fire.
The originally blazing flame seemed to have been doused with cold water, and it only lasted for a few milliseconds before disappearing into mid-air with the last trace of unwilling flickering.
Zheng Qing looked at the place where the flame disappeared in a daze, and was speechless for a while.
When he came back to his senses, he found that Su Shijun was tilting his head, staring at him without blinking. Without saying a word, his expression became very strange.
The wizard sat in a mahogany chair and twisted uneasily.
"What are you looking at?" he used the word 'you' very rarely—he rarely used honorifics since the two of them became acquainted—but the anomaly just now, and his instincts today, told him to learn to be more well-behaved.
Su Shijun's next sentence proved the accuracy of his intuition.
"I want to see if I can kill you," the witch said with a playful smile, but what she said was creepy: "This is the idea that just came to me...... But it suddenly felt like the idea was worth trying. ”
Zheng Qing could tell from her expression and tone that she wasn't joking.
This shocked the young public-funded students, and their brains became confused. A few minutes ago, the two of them were still happily talking and laughing, how could such a terrifying topic start in the blink of an eye? What just happened?
"But, but, why?" he asked, stammering, trying to stand up, but to his horror he found himself bound by an invisible rope, unable to move no matter how he struggled.
This discovery confirms the witch's claims
"Well, it's not what you think. As if sensing the horror in the wizard's eyes, Su Shijun puffed out his face, frowned and changed his words: "To be precise, I want to try to kill a part of you...... Well, it's like a therapist doing surgery to cut out something that doesn't belong to you...... Perhaps it can cure your head disease, or your special attraction to strange life. ”
"Of course, it's possible to actually kill you. She told Zheng Qing all the possibilities very honestly: "If you really succeed, you will regain your freedom." ”
"I feel, I feel free. Zheng Qing smiled dryly, and every muscle in his body was straining.
But the gap between an ordinary wizard and a great wizard is too great, and all his efforts are wasted.
"Peng!"
A second flame appeared in front of them, just like before.
Zheng Qing felt a sense of relief with tears in his eyes, while Su Shijun showed an unsurprising expression.
"Please ......"
The second flaming face had just said a word before it was pinched in the air by the witch.
"Got it......" Su Shijun replied lazily, while retracting his arm and blowing into his palm, as if cleaning up something unclean.
