Roster of Demons

Gu Zhen quickly replied to Fu Xiaozi's email, writing down the inspiration given by the little crow and his own guess.

As for the follow-up investigation, Fu Xiaozi will naturally arrange it.

First confirm the identity of the hooked snake, and then investigate whether it has anything to do with Li Yan's death. After everything is confirmed, it is not too late to help.

"Do you want to play puzzles?" Gu Zhen put away the pad, carried the little black phoenix and went back to the house.

Yesterday, when I accompanied Yuan Bao to the shopping mall to buy toys, I picked up a set of jigsaw puzzles and put them in the corner of the study.

"Have you ever played at home?" Gu Zhen unpacked the package skillfully, "When I was in the hospital, I was either doing checkups or staying in the ward every day, and I was not allowed to watch TV or play with my mobile phone. My cousin was afraid that I would be in a daze. When something went wrong, I made a bunch of these. There are all kinds of patterns, and I have put together several sets." He pointed to the bookcase, "It's all in there. Would you like to try it?"

The little crow jumped to the ground, eager to try.

"Play jigsaw puzzles to exercise your patience. After putting together two sets, you will find that you can bear anything." Gu Zhen spread out the puzzle blanket, and put the box containing the puzzles next to him, "Hey, this number is wrong."

He counted, then took out the lid of the box and looked at it.

"No way, 2000 pieces?" When I picked it up yesterday, I only thought the pattern was pretty good, and didn't pay attention to the number of puzzles at all. "This difficulty must be doubled."

Gu Zhen and Little Black Phoenix looked at each other for two seconds, and asked, "Are you still fighting?"

The little crow picked up a puzzle, stepped on the blanket, and placed it in the middle.

"Okay, since you've decided, let's fight." Gu Zhen simply dumped all the pieces on the ground and spread them out, "Let's divide the colors first. I'll pick the red ones and you pick the black ones. Forget it, I'll do it." Pick the black one, I'm afraid you'll get mixed up with the jigsaw puzzle..."

One person and one demon work together to classify the puzzle pieces one by one, and finish the big categories before the meal time.

After dinner, Gu Zhen took the little black phoenix for a walk by the Yuanshan lake, introduced him to several famous scenic spots, and then joined in the fun to watch the musical fountain for a while, and then went home to fight for a while puzzle.

Time passed unknowingly, when Gu Zhen noticed that his eyelids were heavy and a little sleepy, he looked at his watch, and it was already eleven o'clock.

"It's so late." He yawned, "Why don't we do it today first? Going to bed early and getting up early is easy to grow taller, which is good for children's development."

The little crow didn't object, so Gu Zhen picked him up and put him on the sofa before entering the bedroom: "You stay here first, I'll take a shower. I'll arrange a place for you after I'm done washing."

I went to the pet store and didn't buy a nest for the little crow. I'm going to sleep now, so I can only get one temporarily.While taking a bath, Gu Zhen thought for a while, and planned to get a blanket and make a nest on the sofa.Anyway, the phoenix cub is small in size, so you don't have to worry about falling down no matter how you roll.

Gu Zhen turned off the shower, took a towel to wipe off the sweat stains, put on her underwear, and opened the bathroom door.

He doesn't remember turning on the bedside light.Looking carefully, he found the little black phoenix nestled in the pillow.

Under the dim light of the bedside lamp, she was as cute as a dumpling.

"Why did you run into the bedroom?" Gu Zhen leaned forward, trying to tease him.

Xiao BuDian buried his head, as if he had fallen asleep.

Such an obedient phoenix cub, how could he bear to wake him up.Gu Zhen gave up the plan to let the little crow go to the living room, quietly climbed onto the bed, lay down on the empty side, pulled up the thin quilt, and raised his hand to turn off the bedside lamp.

Gu Zhen slept a little restlessly at night.

He felt someone beside him.

Sitting very quietly on the edge of the bed in the dark.

Although Gu Zhen couldn't see it, his intuition told him that the man stared at him for a long time, then lay down next to Gu Zhen, and put his arms around his waist cautiously but persistently.

"Miscellaneous..."

The man called a strange yet unexpectedly familiar name, and then leaned his head on Gu Zhen's shoulder.

Hey, did you get the wrong person?

Gu Zhen thought.

A minute later, maybe an hour, maybe a night.

The man's hand moved from his waist to Gu Zhen's face.

Touched his cheek, and then used a slender finger to carefully describe his face.

Eyebrows, eyes, nose, and lips...

In the end, the man's fingertips rested on Gu Zhen's lips and stroked them carefully.

Gu Zhen could feel his shoulders getting wet.

"I miss you so much." The man choked up and said.

who are you?

why cry?

...don't cry.

Gu Zhen's heart twitched, he didn't know why he felt so uncomfortable all of a sudden, he struggled, trying to wake up from his sleep.

The people around him rubbed heavily on his shoulder twice, wiping away their tears all over him.

Afterwards, Gu Zhen only felt light on the bed.

All tactility is gone.

Gu Zhen's heart sank, and she fell asleep.

When it was almost dawn, he got up to go to the bathroom.When I came back, I didn't feel sleepy, so I sat on the head of the bed and stared blankly for a while.

The dream last night, to be honest, he has actually forgotten the specific content, and he vaguely remembers that someone lay beside him for a while, but the touch of being hugged is so real that it is indelible.

What the heck.

Gu Zhen let himself go, and after sitting for a while, turned to look at her "bed partner".

The little one sleeps very well, a fluffy ball, nestled in the middle of the pillow, round and pouty, making one can't help but want to touch it.

But he slept so soundly, Gu Zhen didn't have the nerve to make a fuss, restrained his sinful hands, got out of bed quietly, closed the door and went out to run by the distant mountains and lakes.

It rained a little in the morning, and the air was humid and cool.Gu Zhen didn't open an umbrella, and ran around the lake wearing a hood, and was soaked in a thin layer of water vapor by the spring rain.

While waiting for breakfast at the breakfast shop, he took two paper towels from the dining table, wiped his face indiscriminately, looked up inadvertently, and saw Chen Ming's car parked at the gate of the community.

Gu Zhen's first reaction was that something happened.

Chen Ming had to send Yuanbao to kindergarten in the morning, and he had to go to the gym himself, so if he was fine, it was impossible to find someone at this time.

Gu Zhen didn't bother to get breakfast, and ran towards the direction of Chen Ming's car.

Chen Ming is negotiating with the security guard.

The security guard on duty today is new. He has never seen Chen Ming before, so he is not allowed to go in. He must be contacted by the head of the household.Gu Zhen didn't bring her mobile phone with her when she ran, so she couldn't get in touch.

He ran over, greeted the security guard, jumped into the co-pilot, and said to Chen Ming, "Go in first."

While speaking, Gu Zhen subconsciously looked back at the safety seat.

The bulging ball on the chair should be Yuan Bao, but his body was covered with a thin blanket, covering his head and body.A corner of the bottom of the blanket was turned up, revealing a small section of a smooth blue-black tail.

Gu Zhen sighed, and it seemed that she still couldn't hide it.

In the process of slowly regaining his memory, he remembered that he and a friend(?) found Jingwei with the help of the Anti-hunting Alliance, and finally restored Yuanbao to its original form.Originally, he didn't intend to let Chen Ming know the truth, but who knew that the little brat was unreliable, so he leaked the secret himself.

Chen Ming's expression was ugly, and his hand holding the steering wheel trembled slightly: "I don't know why this happened, Yuan Bao was fine last night, but suddenly after breakfast today...Brother Jing, he didn't go home, let me come Looking for you."

Chen Ming didn't know how Fang Jing met Gu Zhen, why he came to find Gu Zhen when something happened, but now his mind was in a mess, he only remembered Yuan Bao, and he was in no mood to delve into anything else.

Gu Zhen also couldn't remember when Chen Ming and Fang Jing got mixed up.But the principle he believes in now is that if you can't think of it, don't think about it, so as not to make yourself unhappy.

"Don't worry," Gu Zhen patted Chen Ming's shoulder, "Go home first."

Chen Ming nodded, suppressed his panic, and slowly drove into the visitor parking area of ​​the underground garage.

When getting out of the car, Chen Ming went to open the rear door.

He stood by the safety seat, a little nervous.He wanted to hug Yuanbao, but he was a little afraid.

"Let me come." Gu Zhen stuffed the apartment key into Chen Ming's hand, "You open the door later. There is a bird in my room, it is relatively small, and it may run around. You will pay attention to the bottom of your feet later, don't give it to me. stepped on."

He unbuckled his seat belt, and hugged the monster-shaped Yuan Bao together with the thin blanket in his arms.

Yuan Bao probably also knew that he had done something wrong, so he hid in the thin blanket and did not dare to move around. He just lay on Gu Zhen's shoulder and peeked at Chen Ming timidly with his eyes wide open: "Father..."

Chen Ming's body trembled.

"Why are you still standing there?" Gu Zhen urged, "Go press the elevator."

"...Okay." Chen Ming took a deep breath, walked ahead, and pressed the up button.

Not long after Gu Zhen left home, the little crow woke up.

He flew around the house, but didn't find Gu Zhen, so he guessed that he must have gone out for a run.He had no choice but to go into the toilet by himself, stand on the sink, turn on the faucet, and wash its beak and claws.

When he heard the door open, he jumped onto the shoe cabinet.

The half-kilin could be smelled through the door, and the little crow couldn't figure out why the little shemale would come here at this time, so Chen Ming pushed the door open first.

Chen Ming's spirit was not very good, he didn't notice the existence of the little crow, and went straight into the house.Gu Zhen, on the other hand, saw him at the first sight and patted his head: "I didn't bother to buy breakfast, there is milk in the refrigerator, do you want to drink?"

The little crow gave him a light peck.

Yuan Bao pushed away the thin blanket, revealing his big head, looked at the little crow curiously, and said in a low voice, "Daddy?"

Gu Zhen quickly covered his mouth and lowered his voice: "If your father heard it, we both have one fate, and that is SHI."

Yuan Bao immediately held his breath.

Gu Zhen picked up the little crow and put him on Yuan Bao's head: "Both of you, don't move around."

Yuan Bao nodded seriously, the little crow couldn't stand still and fell on his head.

Gu Zhen smiled, opened the refrigerator to get milk, poured a big bowl full for Little Black Phoenix, and let him drink slowly in the kitchen with a bird.

Then Gu Zhen took a few deep breaths, dragged a chair, and went to talk to Chen Ming.

Chen Ming sat upright on the sofa without saying a word.

Gu Zhen placed a chair opposite him, and sat down holding Yuan Bao.

Chen Ming raised his head, glanced at Yuan Bao, and then at Gu Zhen.His lips moved: "Yuanbao..."

Yuan Bao hugged Gu Zhen's neck nervously, and cautiously called Chen Ming: "Father."

Gu Zhen patted him on the back reassuringly, and said to Chen Ming: "I didn't mean to hide it from you. Actually, the thing is like this..."
