I really don't want to be a hero

Chapter 39 The Ritual in the Moonlight
He hid behind the butt of the off-road vehicle and listened carefully to the sounds outside.

An obviously more mature female voice came: "You are here."

Daisy's obviously green and immature voice sounded later: "I'm coming."

"You shouldn't have come."

"But I'm still here."

Gu Mian: "???"

They didn't sleep most of the night and came here to play tricks. Are the works of that master so popular in the Bald Eagle Country?

After a few inexplicable conversations, there was the sound of footsteps drifting away in the night wind. Gu Mian poked her head out and saw only the backs of the two of them. The woman beside Daisy was more plump and slim than Daisy. Stepping on stiletto high-heeled shoes, she walked gracefully in the night.

The street was empty, Gu Mian hesitated for a moment, but chose to follow them quietly. After all, those few inexplicable conversations could not prove that what they were going to do was safe, so it was necessary to follow up to confirm.

Hey, why do you look like an idiot making excuses for yourself? I'm clearly innocent.

After walking halfway down the street, the two people in front approached the teacher's apartment not far away. Seeing that the two were about to enter the door of the apartment, Gu Mian hesitated again. After all, even if there was something illegal, it would not Let's go to the teacher's apartment to do it. From this point of view, that woman must also be Daisy's teacher at school.

It's strange to meet so late, but since he's not a male teacher, there shouldn't be anything wrong... right?

Does he still need to go in? I feel that I really can't tell myself.

At this moment, the ethereal breeze brought the words of the two to Gu Mian's ears: "Teacher Jenny, are you ready for the ceremony?"

"It was ready hours ago and you came too late."

"A nasty liar came to the house, and I drank late with Andre, that's why I came so late..."

The teacher and the student pushed open the door of the apartment and walked in, but the words behind could no longer be heard.

Gu Mian noticed the element: "Ritual!?"

What ceremony?He frowned.

On the path of practitioners, there are always auxiliary means explored by countless ancestors, which is also envied by awakened people. Eastern medicine pills and formations, Western secret medicines and rituals are all of this kind.

However, YCA has also said that no matter what kind of auxiliary means, the harmful amount is far more than the beneficial. Taking alchemy as an example, it often takes several furnaces of elixir to make a good elixir, and the rest is useless. Dan also has the possibility of entering the market. Fortunately, those who eat it only suffer from diarrhea, but unfortunately, they bid farewell to the world directly. The effect is more immediate than poison.

In this environment, YCA stipulated that, except for a few well-known famous sects in the country, individuals from all sects were not allowed to make alchemy and buy alchemy in private, and the use of formations must be inspected by YCA.

When Gu Mian was in China, he had arrested several people who played wrong formations. Those who were rescued early were only physically disabled, and those who were rescued later disappeared into the world. With this experience, how could he not be caught by Daisy? Rituals to attract attention?
Seeing that the figures of the two had disappeared at the door of the apartment for a while, Gu Mian quietly followed. The lights on the first floor of the apartment were bright, but there was no one there. He walked to the elevator and found that the elevator just moved to the 15th floor and stopped.

He silently pushed down the elevator, walked in and pressed the button on the 14th floor. Who knows if those two people would stay in the corridor, so he had to be careful.

Thinking of this, he took out the mask from his pocket and put it on.

"Ding Dong"

When the elevator arrived at the 14th floor, Gu Mian walked out, first stood in the middle of the two floors cautiously and looked towards the 15th floor, seeing that it was empty and there was no one, so he walked up with confidence.

There are two doors in the corridor, so there is no need to guess which one Daisy and the others entered, because one of them is obviously unoccupied, and the transparent plastic sheet on the door has not been torn off.

He put his ear on the door of Teacher Jenny's room, but as expected, he didn't hear anything.

Picking the lock was unrealistic in the past, and in case there are EFA members who are patrolling late at night looking for him, the supernatural ability can't be used, so I can only try to climb the window.

Fortunately, the structure of this apartment is very suitable for climbing windows, and there is no need to climb vertically from downstairs.

Thinking this way, Gu Mian turned out of the corridor window, held the window frame with both hands, and stepped on the outer edge that was only the width of the soles of her feet. When she looked down, she could see the bottomless sky, and the cold wind in the middle of the night was blowing on her back. On the chilly one.

He cautiously moved a little bit on the outer edge, and it took a while to move to the window sill of Teacher Jenny's house a few meters away. Gu Mian breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that no one did it, and that he has supernatural powers. So nervous, I don't know how those people who climb with bare hands dare.

Although the window sill was much wider than the outer edge, Gu Mian didn't dare to stand on it, because Daisy and the others were in this room.

Through the moonlight, Gu Mian saw the scene in the room: "There is no bed, and all kinds of decorations have been swept aside. On the empty ground, the blood-red circular magic circle exudes a strange glow under the moonlight. Light, Daisy and Teacher Jenny sat facing each other, with their legs crossed and their eyes closed, with their hands forming a strange seal on their chests."

The whole scene looked like some kind of evil ritual. Just when Gu Mian was about to smash the window to stop it, Daisy suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were as clear as a pool of clear water, and Gu Mian quickly retracted her body. But because of this, he did not see the bloody light that flashed in those eyes.

Daisy woke up Teacher Jenny and said softly, "I feel it."

Jenny looked at her in surprise and said, "Really, how do you feel?"

"It feels great." The blond girl said quietly: "But it's not enough, I need more."

Jenny nodded quickly: "We will continue tomorrow."

"Ah."

Gu Mian didn't know about the conversation between the teacher and the student in the room. He only saw Daisy walking out of Teacher Jenny's house not long after.

Is this... a ritual failure, or was it a joke ritual?
No matter which one it is, Gu Mian has no time to guess, it is two o'clock in the morning, his eyelids are fighting with sleepiness, and he almost fell asleep holding the spare tire while hanging on the back of the off-road vehicle.

It wasn't until she saw Daisy walking into her room that Gu Mian secretly went back to her room, felt a blur of consciousness, and then fell asleep.

After this sleep, I slept until ten o'clock in the morning.

"I've caught a few fish and come back buddy, let's have grilled fish at noon."

Gu Mian bit down a piece of soft bread, felt the irresistible taste, and said with emotion: "Uncle Andre, you are really amazing. You were drunk like that last night, and you can still wake up so early today."

"Haha." Andre said with a smile: "In order to send Daisy to school, I set an alarm every day."

Gu Mian was surprised and said, "Daisy is up too?"

"Of course, today is school day." Andre said strangely: "When I got up, she had already washed up."

"It's amazing." Gu Mian sighed to herself.
