Siren Blade

Chapter 100 Father
I don't know if it's a hallucination, but I actually feel that Lie Que cares about me a little bit.This leaves me a little unsure what attitude to take.Should I be flattered?
Since the previous two frank conversations, he seemed to have slightly removed his cold mask towards me, no longer like an "interrogator", but more like an elder with a dignified demeanor.What is the reason for such a change?
While muttering in my heart, I asked him: "Is there any problem with explaining so crudely?"

"No problem. Warlocks are basically occultists, and the warlocks of the Security Bureau are no exception. As long as you insist that it is an 'exclusive method', no one will have enough to eat and have nothing to do to pursue your details." He said , "Then, let's talk here first. I hang up."

After finishing the call with Lie Que, I continued to think about the demon warlock, and made myself a breakfast with a heavy heart and brought it to the table to eat.

It was only halfway through the meal that I suddenly remembered that I am not living alone now, so I have to make another breakfast for Joan.I am used to living alone here, and at the same time, I am still thinking about other things, and the resources in my mind have not been allocated for a while.I ate my breakfast in threes and fives, and went to the kitchen to prepare a second one.

During this period, Qiao Gancao came over again, this time she brought over a talisman that could suppress the spiritual fluctuations of Charm, saying that she had just applied for it from the Security Bureau.With this thing, even if she goes to see Joan now, nothing will happen for a while.But she saw that Qiao An didn't seem to have gotten up at this time, so she didn't disturb her brother's sleep, and drove back to the security bureau first.

As soon as Qiao Gancao left, Qiao An opened the door from the bedroom and looked out, "Um... is sister gone?"

"You should have heard our conversation." I asked, "Why don't you see your sister?"

"I'm not ready yet," he said sheepishly.Even unconsciously, he had once charmed his older sister.Although Qiao Licao definitely didn't mind, he probably still had a grudge.

I handed him the amulet that suppresses the power of charm, and told him to wash up before eating.

While he was having breakfast, I sat on the sofa next to me and practiced runes for a while.

Now I have been able to portray the "Ignition Flame" rune successfully once out of three times.Although this is a very basic rune, since I can use it myself, it means that I have taken the first step on the road of "true warlock".This is the first time I have really practiced spells with my own hands, and I feel an unspeakable joy in my heart, as if I came into contact with a very novel toy when I was very young.

Seeing that I was practicing runes, Joan looked over curiously.After chatting with him for a few words, I learned that he had also learned the "ignite the flame" rune.Unlike me, he used "ignite the flame" in his first practice.Not only that, but now he has mastered more than a dozen other simple runes.It seems that he is another genius beyond my reach.When I praised him, he was both shy and complacent.

Although the fusion failed yesterday, his situation is much better than when I first found him.Now he has more energy, smiles more, and trusts me literally [-]%.Last night, he even dared to joke with me, telling me not to attack me at night.Combined with his current situation, his joke may also have elements of self-sarcasm.

I was a little surprised, this was the first time I saw him so "lively".I thought he'd mind looking like a girl so much that he wouldn't joke about it himself.Or did he just hate being teased maliciously by other people?Children of this age are always unpredictable and uncertain at the same time.

Maybe I should try to get to know him better so I can get a better handle on my relationship with him.At that time, I was watching him with that thought, and he seemed to realize that he had just said something stupid, and he blushed first, as if he wanted to find a gap in the ground to get in.

"Uh... I just wanted to make a joke just now, to relieve the tense atmosphere..." He became more and more embarrassed as he explained where the point of his joke was.

"Your sister occasionally makes some nonsensical jokes." At that time, I really thought of Qiao Licao when I was in Tianhe City.

Referring to his respected sister, he asked expectantly, "Am I similar to my sister?"

I said duplicity: "It's very similar."

"Hey..." He seemed quite happy.Perhaps in his heart, his sister also has a heroic side.

Having said that, Qiao Licao's abnormal behavior will be regarded as the result of charm from today on.From now on, she won't say "this is the sequelae of the charm" while using the younger brother's guilt to set her hands on the younger brother.I imagined that criminal image, only to find it more difficult to convince myself that "that's not possible".

After breakfast, I took Joan to the Security Bureau for a physical examination.It was no longer raining outside, but the sky was still overcast.Originally, today was his school day, but he couldn't be allowed to go to school as a succubus, otherwise there would definitely be troubles.The school had to ask for leave.

By the way, the clothes he's wearing now are the ones he got wet yesterday.Last night, when I was tidying up another bedroom for him, I found the electric iron. It must have been left by the previous residents.He also gave him the coat and hat from his closet so that he could cover the horns on his head and the wings and tail behind him.

The purpose of this medical examination is to safely release the fusion later, but Joan seems to have other ideas, "What if it can't be released later?"

"Then you'll just have to get used to this body," I said.

"Adaptation..." He struggled and longed for it.It seems that he wants to keep his succubus body with great potential, but he feels that is not possible.It is difficult to extricate ourselves from temptation.

I added, "If it drags on for too long, maybe it won't be able to be lifted."

"That way Huihui won't be able to come back." He couldn't accept it.

It can be seen that it is true that he wants to return to a normal life and that he wants to come back, but it is also true that he wants power.Many times people's dilemma is not that they can't find their sincerity, but that they have too many sincerities and contradict themselves.

We quickly entered the Security Bureau, and inevitably attracted a few eyes.The talisman given by Qiao Licorice can only suppress the charm on the spiritual level, and it has nothing to do with the charm naturally revealed as a living being.Most of those eyes were focused on Qiao An, but seeing that I was beside him, no one dared to ask.I have good hearing, and I can still hear faint whispers in the distance until after I leave.

"Where did such a beautiful child come from, and he is still walking with the devil Li Duo..."

"That seems to be Joe Licorice's younger brother..."

I put those gossips behind me and took Joan to the medical examination room.The medical examiner seemed to have received the news in advance, and when he saw us coming, he simply said hello, and then started working straight to the point without talking nonsense.It was not Joan who received the medical examination first, but me.He's going to test to see if I'm really not charmed.

It's not the first time I've met this medical examiner. Jade Bird mentioned it to me in a chat, and he was the one who diagnosed me as dying.In fact, not many people in the Security Bureau know about the fact that I don't have much life left.After all, the doctors of the Security Bureau also have professional ethics, and they will not spread such things around.The insiders except the medical examiner and myself, that is, Qingniao who was in charge of supervising me, Qiao Licao who was in charge of psychoanalyzing me, and Lie Que, who was my immediate superior.

In addition, "medical examiner" is just what I call him in my heart. He is only in charge of physical examination by the way, and in fact he is also responsible for other medical-related logistical work.For example, my healing dream was actually written by him. I only knew this when I saw the file of the healing dream.

Unlike most people in the security bureau, he didn't treat me as a scourge, or at least not on the surface, but more like a normal colleague.And taking advantage of the opportunity of this meeting, I asked questions about the healing dream that I felt, but he didn't know anything about it.

"The healing dream was indeed my work, but after that, the person in charge of monitoring from the outside of the dream was Lie Que, and the person who monitored from the inside of the dream was Qingniao. I was only responsible for making the dream come true." He said frankly, "It's not right to say 'make it'. The dream is automatically generated according to your own psychology, and it will faithfully reflect your inner world, so it can also be used for psychological tests. I just let you enter the dream. All in all, I don't know what happened in the dream afterwards, and Lie Que didn't ask me to continue helping."

It stands to reason that it is necessary for him to continue to participate when the dream is implanted with malignant factors, but the instigator was Jade Bird, the person who violated the rules and interfered in the dream, and Lie Que gave Jade Bird a chance to clean up the mess.

The topic of healing dreams will be over soon.Next, the medical examiner quickly diagnosed that I was not charmed by Joan.When it was Qiao An's turn to have a physical examination, the medical examiner took a look at it first, "It is indeed a spiritual fluctuation of the devil attribute."

"Is it easy to see?" I asked.

"If it's someone like me who has treated demon possessors many times, or a skilled demon warlock, he can tell it at a glance." He observed Joan, "Actually, the main level warlock should also be able to see it, but Your awareness seems to be biased towards combat and danger perception, if there is no combat and danger, it is only [-]% of the usual."

After speaking, he continued to look at Joan.I waited for a while and he didn't respond, so I called him.Only then did he come back to his senses, "Huh? Oh, sorry, I was fascinated by it. Even suppressing the power of charm, it can still be like this, the succubus is really not to be underestimated..."

He shook his head and returned to work.It didn't take long for him to finish Joan's physical examination.Qiao An is different from patients in the ordinary sense. The "cause" lies in the fusion at the level of the spirit body, and even the obvious characteristics of the succubus are also of the spirit body.So he didn't draw blood or observe with equipment, but used several detection spells on Joan in a row, and then he got all the information he wanted and came to his own conclusion.

"Generally speaking, if a warlock wants to fuse with a demon, they will do it very roughly, using rituals in one go, and give the demon as little chance as possible to resist. But his situation is completely opposite, and it was initiated by the demon. , and it is a step-by-step fusion that can only be achieved on the premise of the full cooperation of the devil. This is a very rare example." The medical examiner said, "If you want to cancel the fusion, you must do it as soon as possible, but since the previous disc props cannot be used, we This side needs some preparation time. It will take at least two days."

"Of course, it depends on your own will whether you want to cancel the fusion. It is also possible to live as a succubus, because this fusion method will hardly pollute your mind." He then told Joan Said, "But remember, according to the current progress, if the fusion is not released within a week, it will never be released in the future."

"I see." Hearing this, Joan also became nervous.

"And you." The medical examiner looked at me. "Whether he chooses to continue to be a succubus or not, before he can control his own charm power, there must be a supervisor. You will not be affected by his charm power." Therefore, this candidate can only be you. Remember to bring him to me for a physical examination every once in a while to confirm his specific integration and the progress of the practice of the power of charm."

"Ok." I said.

"Then, there should be nothing else." He seemed to be flipping through the memo in his mind.

In fact, there is still a problem, but it is not his problem, but my problem.

It was mentioned last time that Joan might stay at my house for a few more days. The reason for saying "maybe" is because there is actually a crucial issue on the level of common sense in this matter.

Just as Joan and I walked out from the door of the medical examination room, three people came from the other side of the corridor.One of them was Joe Licorice, and the other two appeared to be a couple.The husband is a middle-aged man about 50 years old, with a serious and dignified face, a healthy figure, and a vigorous pace; while the wife is a woman who gives the impression of being reticent.

As soon as the man saw me and Joan, he walked over at a faster pace, and then stood in front of me.He first took a deep look at Qiao An, then stared at me, and then asked, "Excuse me, is this Li Duo, Mr. Li?"

Although I don't like being called the devil Li Da, but being called "Mr. Li" in a serious way like this also makes me feel uncomfortable.So I just said, "Call me Lee Do. May I ask who you are?"

He said in a deep voice, "I am Joan's father."
