Chapter 109: The Rat Sees Suspicion

On Saturday evening, it was already a little dark.

Although the weather is still a little chilly, because it is spring, there is no shortage of young witches and wizards on campus, walking quietly in groups of twos and twos.

This makes the air on campus always permeate the air with a charming atmosphere.

A big-tailed squirrel with gray fur bouncing an acorn from branch to paulownia tree. The acorn was hidden deep in the woods before the onset of last winter. Although it is now spring, but there is no spring, and most of the autumn collection has gone, this squirrel can only barely live the life of the collection that has been left everywhere in the past year.

When he jumped on the branch of an old willow tree, the squirrel suddenly stopped and poked his head to look down.

Under the willow trees, several rats in cyan vests stood upright, their two front paws gesturing vigorously, as if they were saying something to the young wizards opposite them.

It's a lively and worth seeing.

The squirrel hugged the acorn, and the big tail drooped under the branches, and looked at the excitement happily.

“...... It was white-clothed and black-haired, and it was so tall that when it turned its head, its face was white and pure, and it didn't even have eyes!" Ding Dong tore off his two front paws, trying to compare the size of the monster they had encountered, and there was no lack of pretentiousness in his tone: "That is, I know you well, so I told you, so I ......"

"So, this news can be exchanged for a broken diamond!" Jingle Ear interrupted his companion's teasing, revealing their true intentions.

"Stop, stop here first!" Zheng Qing stretched out his hand to stop the invitation of the two mice, stood up straight, and looked at the two witches beside him.

One is slender and has a delicate face, and the other is short and has a furry bear in his arms.

It is the sisters Jiang Yu and Li Meng.

At this moment, Jiang Yu's brows frowned slightly, and his expression was a little solemn, while Li Meng looked bored, and his two little hands were tossing the two round ears of the hairy bear Li Neng. The stuffed bear bared its teeth in her arms, but it was still honest and unmoved.

As for why the two of them appeared under this willow tree and met the two mice with Zheng Qing, it needs to start from a few hours ago.

......

Because today is Saturday, Zheng Qing was working in Professor Montella's office in the afternoon, when he received a paper crane from D&K, the paper crane was flown by the acting store manager Hu Wu, mentioning that the two rat clerks in the store encountered a monster when they were catching bugs at the school last night.

Originally, Zheng Qing didn't take it seriously.

He knew the babbling habits of the two eared brothers in his shop, who had always liked to call moths evil insect spirits and kappa as world-destroying demon kings. So after Zheng Qing received the paper crane, he once thought that Fox Five was making a fuss.

After leaving the Monteria laboratory in the afternoon, Zheng Qing went to D&K to check the accounts on a whim, and Hu Wu mentioned this matter again. Born in the Qingqiu Su clan, it was much more knowledgeable than Zheng Qing, and it was very suspicious that the two rats had encountered the Faceless Demon.

As soon as he heard the words 'Faceless Demon', Zheng Qing's mind suddenly shook, and several inexplicable pictures appeared.

The dark night, towering rockeries, pitch-black butterflies, white kittens, bubbling water, and a faceless white figure.

What happened to Professor Yao's office, as well as some materials related to the 'eyewitness talent' he consulted later, made Zheng Qing subconsciously believe that the white figure was related to the murderer who had killed Jiang Yufeng and raised kittens last semester. After much hesitation, he finally contacted Jiang Yu.

So there was this meeting under the old willow tree.

......

In the trees, the gray squirrel is still holding an acorn and watching a play.

Under the tree, Jiang Yu was still frowning, thinking seriously about something, and Li Meng, who came with her, was already a little impatient.

"Why do you say that the faceless monster is the murderer of the kitten? There is no information at all!" The little witch hugged the stuffed bear, her eyes shifted from the Tsing Yi mouse to Zheng Qing, and her tone was quite suspicious: "You don't just want to find an excuse to chat with my cousin...... You're a girlfriend, you can't be a carrot!"

As soon as these words came out, not only Zheng Qing's face was hot, but Jiang Yu's earlobes were also a little red.

"Xiao Meng!" she glanced at the little witch fiercely, and stretched out her hand to the outside of the forest: "If you don't want to shut up, go to the library and do your homework!

When Li Meng heard this, her face turned bitter, and she immediately lowered her eyelids obediently, and then made a zipper movement in her mouth, and at the same time added angrily: "I'll shut up!"

The stuffed bear in her arms shared the joys and sorrows of her master, and almost simultaneously made a gesture to shut up. This made the little witch bend her eyebrows, and finally stopped twisting the round ears of the stuffed bear.

Zheng Qing stared blankly, and after watching the funny interaction between the pair of main pets, he finally coughed lightly and looked down at the rat brothers.

"Ahem, it's not for nothing that I say that. He didn't look at Jiang Yu, but he was explaining to her why he did this: "Professor Yao did a test for me before, and I was determined that I had a little talent as an 'eyewitness'...... It's a very special talent for divination, and it's occasionally possible to see the scene that happened but didn't have witnesses. ”

Jiang Yu interrupted him in surprise: "You mean, you saw the scene of Xiaobai's murder?"

Zheng Qing nodded, but shook his head again: "I've seen it before...... But because that talent wasn't great, I couldn't capture the effective picture in my head, so I couldn't find a clue...... It wasn't until this time, when they mentioned that they had seen the Faceless at school, that I had a vague suspicion. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the two mice in green clothes sitting next to his feet.

Jingle Ears and Ding Dong Ears sat cross-legged on a small piece of bluestone next to the tree, tilting their heads to listen to the conversation between the witches and wizards. After hearing Zheng Qing mention the two of them, he immediately straightened his chest, looking like he was honored.

The little witch who was shut up immediately let out a low sneer.

This impolite behavior was exchanged for angry glares from the two mice.

"Meng Meng!" Jiang Yu reached out and rubbed her hair, her voice was a little helpless: "Pay attention to politeness!!"

"I didn't mean to laugh at stupid people!" Li Meng rolled his eyes, and suddenly found a new reason: "I just wonder why the school's guardian formation didn't find the faceless demon that sneaked in, but these two little mice were able to find ......"

Speaking of this, the little witch seemed to have found the logic of the problem, and the more she spoke, the more confident she became: "Isn't this suspicious? I remember that these two rats worked in Zhengqing's shop...... Why did they appear in the woods deep in the middle of the night, and why would the Faceling kill the kittens if they could kill them?"
