Roster of Demons

The little crow leaned back on the back of the chair, the strange touch on the top of his head made him vigilant, and looked sideways at Gu Zhen.

"I don't mean anything else." Gu Zhen quickly withdrew her hand, coughing to cover up the embarrassment in her heart, "Would you like to sleep for a while?"

The little crow didn't say anything, turned to the window and closed his eyes: "Call me when you get home."

No one mentioned the purpose of finding Pixiu in the first place.In the past two days, the little crow left the register of ten thousand demons in the hands of the pigeons, and asked them to take turns guarding the demon star Luotu, and immediately report to him when the red dot appeared.

The little crow himself patrolled the city in the form of a monster.He originally planned to go to Jingwei, but he can only put it aside at the moment.

As for Gu Zhen, after much deliberation, he anonymously posted a post looking for an old beggar on the forum of his alma mater.The content of the post was written very euphemistically: I can see that old beggar on the overpass every day, but it suddenly disappeared in the past two days, which is a bit strange.

Gu Zhen thought about it, the police might not be able to deal with monsters, but the old beggar was begging on the overpass in a human form, and many people must have seen him.

Xingguang City College is very close to the overpass, and there is a bustling commercial street nearby. If some students saw him when he was taken away, they might be able to provide some clues.

After all, it was a third-rate university, and most of the students were bored to a certain extent. After seeing this post, many people came to join in the fun.There were those who were curious, gossip, and conspiracy theorists, and all of them responded positively. Gu Zhen found a few useful clues after going back and forth.

He organized the situation concisely and sent it to the little crow with a ball.

Gu Zhen: After we left that day, some students saw another group of people coming to the old beggar and said a few words to him, and the old beggar left with them without coercion or fighting.

Gu Zhen: There were about four or five people in that group. They were tall and big, with a strong aura.The student didn't dare to go up and ask, but felt something was wrong afterwards and called the police.

After the message was sent, the little crow has not responded.

Gu Zhen looked at his watch, it was seven o'clock in the evening.He flicked the webpage randomly, but his mind was not on the pad.Two days have passed, and there has been no news of the old beggar. It can't help but make people think in a bad way.

There was a noise from the direction of the balcony. Gu Zhen thought it was the little crow who had returned, so he hurriedly got up to open the door of the balcony.But it wasn't the little crow that came, but the big gray.

"Why are you here? Is there any movement on the roster?" Gu Zhen stepped aside and let him into the room.

After the big gray fell to the ground, it turned into a human form, and hurried into the room: "Where's the boss?"

"Not back yet." Gu Zhen asked, "What's the matter?"

"There's news about Pixiu." Dahui said, "But I can't get in touch with the boss. What should I do now?"

"Don't worry." Gu Zhen said, "Let me think about it."

Gu Zhen still remembered the little crow's advice to him, that people and monsters must not know that he could see the demon star Luo Tu, so he couldn't let Da Hui open the list of ten thousand demons for him to see.

He opened the electronic map on the pad and handed it to Dahui: "You first mark the address of Pixiu on it. I will study it."

"Yes, but I can't." Dahui rubbed his hands nervously. He had never used the Ten Thousand Monster Register, and he was anxious, with several pigeon feathers popping out of his face, "What if I made a mistake?"

"Your boss's stinky temper is the best you know. If you make a mistake, just wait for the pigeon soup." Gu Zhen said, "You'd better hurry up, the old beggar is not in good health, if you can't carry it to us to save it, you will be finished." La!"

"Don't scare me." Big Gray said so, still took the pad, and abruptly marked the position remembered in his mind.

Gu Zhen took it and took a look: "Deyuan Auction House? Are you sure?"

Dahui said: "I'm not sure, you insisted on my bidding."

"Oh." Gu Zhen sighed.

Will the person who takes away the old beggar lock him up in the auction house?Gu Zhen was a little confused.He called Little Crow, but the other party never answered, probably still flying in the sky.

Gu Zhen went to the official website of Deyuan Auction House. It showed that there were two auctions going on at the same time at [-] o'clock tonight. As for the auctioned goods, they were marked as confidential.

"Deyuan Auction House is not far from here, or I'll go over and take a look." Anyway, it's still a clue, Gu Zhen said while leaving a message for Little Crow, "Da Hui, you are waiting at home, say no The quasi-little crow will be back in no time."

"Not so good? What if you are in danger?" Da Hui said, "Let's wait for the boss to come back. Or I will go with you, the boss asked me to follow you all the time."

"The Deyuan Auction House is also a regular place. There are often valuables in circulation, and the security protection is strong. And I just went for a walk, what can I do?" Gu Zhen said, "It's useless for you to follow, that kind of You have to wear formal clothes, do you have one?"

Dahui shook his head honestly.

"That's right, I'll go back as soon as I go." After Gu Zhen finished speaking, he went into the study and staggered, and when he came out, he had already changed into a silver-gray suit.

"How about it, isn't it handsome?" Gu Zhen tugged at the collar of his shirt, "It's just being strangled. The price of pretending to be aggressive."

Big Gray Kuang nodded: "Looks good! Like a big pigeon!"

Gu Zhen: "...It's my fault for asking you."

Gu Zhen's thinking was still too naive.The two rounds of auctions tonight are at a confidential level, he can't even go up to the floor where the auction is located, he doesn't have an invitation letter, and the waiter won't even swipe your elevator card for you.

In fact, Gu Zhen wasn't even a little interested in what was on sale at night.He just wondered why someone would be interested in an old beggar, an old monster, or the dying kind, and arrange it in such a place.

The auction house is a five-story building, and with Gu Zhen's skills, it's simply impossible to sneak in quietly.If the little crow is there, it can fly in.

Gu Zhen couldn't go in, so he could only wander around.He was wearing a high-end suit, handsome and handsome, he looked like a dog and was quite bluffing, the security guards only regarded him as the son of some family, and no one went up to chase him away.

Going around like this is not an option, Gu Zhen stood by the flower bed across the road from the auction house, and was going to call Little Crow again, if there was still no answer, he would go back first.

The phone rang for a long time, still waiting for the beep.

Looks like that's it for tonight.Gu Zhen put away her phone and was about to leave.

Taking a casual glance, I saw a man and a woman getting off a car that had just stabilized on the opposite side.The young man looked a little familiar, not to mention the girl, who was just—

"Fu Xiaozi?" The face was indeed very similar, but Gu Zhen didn't dare to confirm it.

The other party had long, wine-red wavy hair, was wearing a brocade cheongsam with high slits, and had high heels that were at least ten centimeters high.With one hand holding a small powder bag, the other hand is very intimately wrapped around the man's arm.

Usually, when encountering such a situation, Gu Zhen would not go up to strike up a conversation. First, he cannot be 100% sure that this is Fu Xiaozi; ;Third, it's hard for someone to talk to someone, why is he going to join in the fun?

However, this usual situation lost its universality the moment Gu Zhen saw the man take out the gleaming invitation letter.

Gu Zhen cleared his throat, tidied up his appearance, and after emboldened himself, he strode towards the auction with big strides, and shouted loudly after four or five meters: "Xiao Zi!"

The girl turned her head subconsciously, and when she saw Gu Zhen, a moment of surprise flashed across her face, but she quickly pretended to hear wrong, turned around calmly, and calmly smiled at the man beside her.

Oh hoo, it really is her.

Gu Zhen sniffed, stepped forward quickly, and immediately stood beside Fu Xiaozi, intending to go in with her.

The waiter reached out his hand firmly but politely to stop him: "Sir, please show your invitation letter."

Gu Zhen hurriedly said, "This is my cousin, and I'm with them." Then he grinned at Fu Xiaozi, "Xiaozi."

Fu Xiaozi looked at the young man beside him with a complicated expression, and the two quickly exchanged a look.The man pressed Fu Xiaozi's hand on his arm, smiled lightly at the waiter, "We are together."

"Sorry, please come inside." The waiter didn't ask any more questions, and moved sideways to get out of the way.

Gu Zhen kept up with the two of them, and stretched out his hand towards the man: "Hello! I'm Fu Xiaozi's cousin, I'm sorry to disturb you!"

"Where?" The young man smiled at Gu Zhen politely, and shook his hand, "Xiao Zi's cousin is my cousin."

"I won't bother you for too long, I'll leave later." After speaking, she raised her head and chest, and raised her right arm very gentlemanly, Fu Xiaozi sneered secretly, and stretched out her arms to hold him.

If Gu Zhen noticed Fu Xiaozi's smile, then he would know that it was Fu Xiaozi who was about to deal with her.But at this time his mind is not here.

Gu Zhen's purpose was to go upstairs, and he didn't want to follow Fu Xiaozi all the time.With her by her side, there is always an illusion that she will be beaten in the next second.He planned to go to the auction with the two of them first, then slipped out under the pretext of going to the toilet, and then went around the upper and lower floors, and if he didn't find any problems, he could go back home.

The three of them were silent all the way, Gu Zhen wanted to say a few words to adjust the atmosphere, but Fu Xiaozi and the man had no intention of talking to him at all, so Gu Zhen had no choice but to give up.

The auction was at the end of the corridor, and there was a thick sound-absorbing carpet along the way, and the high-heeled shoes stepped on it without making any sound.

Fu Xiaozi and the man exchanged a few hidden gestures from an angle that Gu Zhen couldn't see.

It was the first time for Gu Zhen to come back to the auction house. She was somewhat curious. Just as she was about to ask, she felt her scalp go numb and her body suddenly lost strength. She leaned softly against Fu Xiaozi. caught.

However, Gu Zhen lost control of her body, but her consciousness was still clear.As he fell, the tattoo on the back of his neck was burning and painful, and it was terribly uncomfortable.

"Finished?" It was the young man's lowered voice.

"Yeah." This was Fu Xiaozi's voice, "If you hit his fainting point, he won't be able to wake up for a while."

Then Gu Zhen was replaced by Fu Xiaozi to the middle position, and was supported by a man instead.

"Throw him in the bathroom first. Don't let him delay." The young man said.

"Yeah. Be careful, don't hurt him. This is really my cousin." Fu Xiaozi said.

"I know, I know him," said the young man.

"How do you know?" Fu Xiaozi said.

"It's hard to say, I'll talk to you later. Prioritize today's tasks." The young man said.

"Okay." Fu Xiaozi said.
