Yokai Office

Chapter 42

"Enough! Stop talking!" Xuezi yelled in pain.

Seeing this, Snow God had a complicated expression, "Senior Qingnv..."

The young girl withdrew her hand and turned sideways.A trace of pain flashed in her eyes, and then she returned to calm.Finally, Xuezi couldn't hold it anymore, and with a plop, she fell to her knees on the ground.

She lowered her head and gasped uncontrollably for a long time.Then, she covered her face with her hands, "...why didn't you tell me?"

"Why, why didn't you tell me?"

"elder sister……"

Xuezi whimpered softly, weak and sad.

When Snow God first heard the word 'sister', his blue eyes flickered.But she still didn't respond to this claim, she closed her eyes and concealed all her emotions.

To this day, it is finally a wrong step, a wrong step.

Sensing the atmosphere, Shen Xi felt a little unhappy.

Obviously, many things should not have developed into this way.

He tugged at Zong Ci's sleeve, and said with a troubled face, "Zong team..."

Seeing his expression, Zong Ci seemed to understand what he hadn't said yet.He reached out and brushed the snowflakes off Shen Xi's shoulders, "It's all their own choice, and they can't blame others. We are just bystanders and cannot interfere."

Shen Xi was immersed in such thoughts, and did not notice how gentle Zong Ci's behavior was.He pursed his lips and nodded thoughtfully, "I know, but it still hurts."

"Don't think about it." Zong Ci patted him on the shoulder, and walked straight towards Xuezi and the others.

Seeing this, Shen Xi hurriedly followed.

"Your Majesty." Snow God and Qing Nu said in unison when they saw the person coming.

Zong Ci nodded, and then walked into Xuezi.He looked at each other condescendingly, and said calmly, "Who ordered you to do it?"

Instigate?

When the three of them heard this, they were all shocked.

Could it be that Xuezi would do such evil deeds?Instigated by others?

"Team Zong, what do you mean by what you said?" Shen Xi asked puzzled.

Xueshen and Qingnu looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.The young girl asked, "Your Majesty, what you said is..."

The young girl paused, and simply shifted the topic to Xuezi, "Xuezi, tell me!"

Xuezi took her hands away from her face, and slowly raised her head, "...Your Majesty, why do you ask such a question?"

"You just need to tell me, yes or no." Zong Ci continued to ask.

When Xuezi heard this, she was dazed for a moment.Up to now, she no longer has the need to hide, "...Yes."

As soon as these words came out, except Zong Ci, the expressions of the other three people changed.

Doubts welled up in Shen Xi's heart, but he didn't interrupt Zong Ci's interrogation, but just quietly stayed aside, planning to ask him more carefully later.

"Who misled you?!" Snow God was a little angry when he heard this.

"The man in black, you can't see your face clearly, I will teach you to use magic to improve your cultivation." Zong Ci said one by one.

Xuezi was startled, unable to believe it, "You, how do you know?"

Zong Ci didn't answer her words, but just closed the barrier, "Shen Xi, let the Monster Bureau personnel waiting outside come in and take Xuezi away."

"Yes." Shen Xi ran out quickly.Not long after, several people walked in.

"Team Zong." Those people shouted at Zong Ci.

Zong Ci glanced at Xuezi, "Take it away."

Several people took out a special binding spell, stuck it on Xuezi's body, and took her away.

Xueshen and Qingnv both understood that they couldn't avoid this result, so they turned their heads for a while, unable to bear to look at it.

It wasn't until Xuezi disappeared at the intersection that the young girl asked, "Your Majesty, the fact that Xuezi was instigated..."

"It's not convenient for me to reveal too much about this matter. I will definitely tell you when the truth comes out."

When the young girl heard the words, she didn't want to ask more questions.

Xueshen bowed to Zong Ci and begged, "Your Majesty, no matter what the final verdict of the Monster Bureau is, please let me know."

Xueshen did not plead for Xuezi.

She is very clear that all living beings have a destiny.Xuezi killed ordinary people, this fact cannot be changed.Then she should accept the corresponding punishment.

"Yeah." Zong Ci nodded and replied, "Let's take a step first."

The two said in unison, "Your Majesty, walk slowly."

***

When the two returned to the office, Shen Xi couldn't restrain the doubts in his heart, "Zong Zong Zong! Why do you know that Xue Zi is behind the scenes!"

"Stupid." Zong Ci opened his mouth and clicked a word.

Shen Xi lay down on the table in front of him, and shouted unwillingly, "Team Zong!"

Small appearance, but also angry.

Zong Ci picked up the water glass and covered up the smile on his lips. He simply said, "Think about it, how many cases have you been through so far?"

Shen Xi heard the words and thought about it carefully.He wrung his fingers and counted them one by one, "The human skin case at the beginning, then the student jumping off a building later, um... and the Xuezi case. That's right! There is also the ice silkworm case."

"Four." Shen Xi said.

While Shen Xi was recalling, Zong Ci took out the electronic device at the side, drew out several electronic files with his slender fingers, and handed them to him, "Look carefully at the last part."

"Oh." Shen Xi took the electronic device, looked at it seriously for a while, and then exclaimed, "Oh my god!"

"Zong team, the people mentioned in these cases are all the same behind-the-scenes instigator?!"

Zong Ci nodded, "It's very possible, but there is no definite evidence yet."

Four cases, four perpetrators, but none of them can clearly see each other's appearance.

If it is really the same behind-the-scenes instigator, then what is his motive?

"Team Zong, I don't think this matter can be sloppy! We must investigate carefully!" Shen Xi moved closer, frowning, and said very seriously.

Zong Ci chuckled, stretched out his hand to push him back, and asked back.

"Do you still need to remind me?"

"That's right." Shen Xi scratched his head embarrassingly, "I'm just worrying about it."

"It's a good thing that you have this awareness." Zong Ci praised with a smile.

Shen Xi, who received the praise, opened his eyes wide and smiled happily, "Team Zong! I find that you are treating me better and better recently! And you often smile at me! You are so pretty!"

Zong Ci was taken aback, but when he realized it, he felt helpless and funny at the same time.

Shen Xi's blunt exaggeration, when can he correct it?

"Okay, aren't you hungry yet? That's all." Zong Ci changed the subject.

Shen Xi took a look, only to realize that it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon.

As soon as Zong Ci mentioned it, he suddenly felt hungry.

"hungry."

"Go and buy some food, and it will be reimbursed at public expense." Zong Ci recalled Shen Xi's physical condition, and saw his thin figure.It is not enough to eat more good food.

As soon as he heard 'reimbursement of public expenses', Shen Xi was naturally overjoyed, and asked impatiently, "Team Zong, would you like to eat some too?"

"I..." Zong Ci hadn't said the word 'no' before he was interrupted by Shen Xi's repeated words.

"It's boring for me to eat alone, Team Zong. I know there is a takeaway restaurant that is delicious and clean! Why don't you eat with me? Okay?"

Seeing his expectant eyes, Zong Ci hesitated for a moment, and replied in an inaudible manner, "Yes."

"Then I'll go buy it now!" Shen Xi immediately turned around and ran out, not forgetting to shout, "Team Zong, wait for me, don't worry!"

Zong Ci sat in his seat, smiled helplessly, and thought——

Who is in a hurry?

***

The murder case in the snow has finally come to an end.

Fu Shenglin finally had an explanation. He only said that the murderer had been arrested, and made up a reasonable reason.The public's attention is always diverted quickly, and within a few days, it is brought over by new heat.

It's the weekend.

Zong Ci, who was originally at home, suddenly received a call from the Monster Bureau, saying that he had something important to go.

After hearing about this, Shen Xi felt that being alone at home would be boring.The two drove there together.

"Team Zong! I'll go to the archives to back up some data, and I'll find you later."

Originally, Shen Xi planned to handle it again on Monday tomorrow, but now that he was already in the Monster Bureau, he took the opportunity to solve it together.

"Okay." Zong Ci agreed, and walked towards the destination first.

***

Monster bureau, treatment room.

Before Zongci entered the door, he saw Xuezi lying in a formation.And there was a man standing in front of her.

In the cold weather, I only wore a thin beige windbreaker.Looking at the back alone, it looks a little thin.

Hearing the movement behind him, the man turned around, and his entire face was revealed in front of Zong Ci.

The man wore a pair of glasses with silver rims. He had a gentle appearance and a gentle smile between his eyebrows.Just standing there gives people a sense of natural elegance.

Zong Ci took a silent look, and there was no such number one person in his memory.

At the same time, the other party was also looking at him.In just a moment, the man opened his mouth.

"Is that Zong Ci? Hello." The man reached out and pushed his glasses, and greeted him proactively.

"Hmm." Zong Ci's voice was neither salty nor weak, "...you are?"

The man was about to answer when a figure suddenly rushed over, "Brother An!"

It was Shen Xi's voice.

Zong Ci took a closer look, and saw Shen Xi bypassing him and heading straight for the man.

The joy rushed straight to the forehead, without any concealment.

"Why are you here?" Shen Xi said cheerfully.

The man raised the corners of his mouth and smiled even more, like a spring breeze.He stroked the broken hair on Shen Xi's forehead affectionately, and looked at it several times, "Let me take a good look, has Xiao Xi grown taller these years?"

"Of course I've grown taller!" Shen Xi stretched out his hand to compare, "I used to only reach your front, but now it's all up to your neck! Hehe!"

——The two know each other well?

Zong Ci frowned involuntarily, feeling inexplicably annoyed.For some reason, he only felt the scene of the two standing together and chatting...

A bit of an eyesore.
