Don't play games with crazy vests

Zhang Jingsi was silent for a long time.

Finally, he stared at Ah Yan and said, "I can probably understand what you mean."

Ah Yan patted him on the shoulder, but Chang Jingsi didn't rush to urge him: "It's okay, take your time."

As long as a seed is successfully planted, a corresponding flower will eventually be harvested.

Zhang Jingsi moved his body, as if he was not used to staying in the same room with a monster for so long.

Ah Yan finished speaking, what else did De Zhang Jingsi want to say to him.

Without struggling for a long time, he spoke directly: "You, he..."

Chang Jingsi's eyes swiveled between Ah Yan and Shuji Tsushima, and after thinking about it, he still asked.

He pointed to Shuji Tsushima and asked Ah Yan, "He said my father didn't cheat."

I didn't expect the child's words to be so straightforward, which made Ah Yan couldn't help laughing.

Ah Yan raised his eyebrows, Shuji Tsushima would give him a "sweet" smile.

Shuji Tsushima is as bad a kid as he is.

A certain big demon is very self-aware of his own character.

Ah Yan suddenly felt for a moment that he was like a king of children mixed in among several children.

Ahem, this must be an illusion.

Ah Yan stretched his waist, and there was no seated figure: "Indeed there is not."

He didn't have any plans to hide from Zhang Jingsi.

Zhang Jingsi clenched his hands tightly, completely unable to accept what Ah Yan said.

"Impossible, how could this be?"

Chang Jingsi has always firmly believed that Chang Yihui cheated, and perhaps more than half of it was influenced by the rumors passed down by the servants at home.

But the main reason is definitely not because of this.

Ah Yan was very curious about what happened, which made Zhang Jingsi firmly believe that his father had betrayed his mother.

In other words, Zhang Jingsi may have seen some strange behavior of Zhang Yihui.

In any case, it can be regarded as providing new clues for the investigation in A Yan's side mission.

Ah Yan calmly guided Zhang Jingsi to tell the information he wanted: "I'm curious why you think your father is cheating?"

Ordinary children would not be so clear about such things as "cheating" even if they had doubts.

They will only feel that their father's love and company for the family has declined, and they will feel uncomfortable being left out, but few children know what the word "cheating" means.

The field Jingji is unexpectedly precocious.

Zhang Jingsi struggled in his heart for a while, thinking that since he had already talked about this, he had to continue talking.

We've talked about it until now, and it's not a good thing to hide any more.

At this age, Chang Jingsi is still a little tender, under the guidance of Shuji Tsushima and the language offensive of Ah Yan, he continued to tell what he saw two years ago.

A year ago, Chang Jingsi had just turned ten years old and started some simple training about exorcising demons.

Chang Jingsi was trained as the next Patriarch since he was a child, and every step of his education was well planned.

No one expected that on the day of Zhang Jingsi's tenth birthday, he ran into the secret of his father whom he had always admired.

Human beings belong to Mu Qiang, and in Chang Jingsi's young heart, the person he admired the most was his father.

But since Zhang Jingsi found out that he had an aunt two years ago, and the aunt moved back to Chang's house, he found that his father would often disappear at night.

As the head of the Chang family, Chang Yihui, it was normal for him not to be able to spend time with his family for a long time when he was busy with work.

It’s just that children are inherently sensitive in terms of emotions, and Chang Jingsi has always been dissatisfied that his father has been busy with work and hasn’t been with him for a long time, not to mention that since that strange aunt came back, his father has basically been talking about it every day. Staying in the study.

Although Zhang Yihui gave the reason that he was too late to deal with the matter and was afraid of going back and delaying his wife's rest, Zhang Jingsi did not believe this reason.

He didn't tell anyone what he thought, he just kept it in his heart secretly.

At that time, Zhang Jingsi hadn't thought about his father's bad morals.

He just felt that his father was lying to him, and he felt a little depressed.

It wasn't until half a year later that Zhang Jingsi finally heard more and more rumors from the Zhang family.

Chang Jingsi's mother is not in good health. It seems that Chang Jingsi fell to the root of the disease when she was born, and she dragged her sick body to bed all year round to recuperate.

At that time, Zhang Jingsi had just returned home from school, and went to hang his mother's shoulders.

He has always spent half an hour with his mother for a fixed time, but for some reason that day, Zhang Jingsi's mother said that she was a little tired and wanted to take a nap and rest.

Zhang Jingsi didn't stay with his mother for long, he walked out of the house at least 15 minutes earlier than before.

Then when he passed a certain courtyard, he heard two young servants in the courtyard who were tending various flowers and whispering gossip.

Almost everyone in the Chang family knew that Chang Jingsi and the head's wife were staying together at this time, and the head of the family was also busy with various things.

Relying on the absence of the Patriarch and his family, the two servants didn't hold back their desire to eat melons, and started gossiping directly.

"Is the Patriarch and that... hmm?"

"Which one? Oh, you mean her, I think it's very possible."

"After all, she looks so good-looking."

"I heard that something happened after the marriage, and her husband came back after something happened."

"Tsk tsk, I went back to Changben's house when my husband had an accident. I guess she doesn't like her very much there."

"So the only thing she can rely on is the Patriarch?"

The tall servant moved his mouth, and said this sentence in a very low voice.

The other servant nodded in agreement: "As for the cautious attitude of the master, I think the master also has the same meaning."

Neither of them noticed a small shadow at the corner of the courtyard.

Zhang Jingsi overheard all the conversations between the two servants in the courtyard, but he didn't understand the charades played by the two servants at all.

Who is that woman called "she"?

Patriarch... what happened to father?

This was the first time Chang Jingsi had heard his father's gossip, but because the two gossiping servants said it in a very cryptic way, he didn't understand it at the time.

Zhang Jingsi's misunderstanding of his father became more and more serious. He just thought that his father was lying to him and didn't want to be alone with him.

So Chang Jingsi studied hard, he wanted to be a kid next door and make his father proud.

In this case, maybe his father can spend more time with him again.

Until later, accompanied by the frequent visits by Chang Yihui to Chang Yuriko, more and more servants began to eat melons in private with more and more undisguised wanton behavior.

Taking advantage of his short stature, Zhang Jingsi overheard a lot of rumors.

After his unremitting efforts to "study", Zhang Jingsi finally understood what the servants at home meant when they talked about their father.

It was also during that time that Di Chang Jingsi learned the meaning of the word "cheating".

Until this time, he still did not believe that his father would be that kind of person.

Zhang Jingsi clenched the corner of his clothes tightly.

He lowered his head, still thinking that he was not good enough and disgusted by him, so he lied to him and his mother, and he didn't want to spend more time with their mother and son.

Father is not the kind of bad man who would kiss other aunts!

Zhang Jingsi wiped away the tears that were about to fall from his eyes, and raised his head slightly to calm himself down.

Zhang Jingsi believes that his father must be a very powerful person with a strong sense of morality.

If Dad didn't have a strong sense of morality, he wouldn't be like a TV hero who's always busy killing bad monsters who hurt humans.

Although Zhang Jingsi was inevitably affected by these rumors, he still gritted his teeth and insisted on studying, trying to make himself better.

No matter how good he is, he will be able to get his father's company.

It was also thanks to Di Chang Jingsi's thoughts... that he discovered his father's secret on the night of his ninth birthday.

Zhang Jingsi was sitting on a chair. When he said this, he suddenly looked up at Ah Yan who was sitting opposite him.

Ah Yan didn't take off the disguise, and still sat on the main seat in the middle of the desk with the appearance of Zhang Yihui.

Zhang Jingsi paused for a moment, and then said in a more firm tone: "I discovered a secret in the study."

Time went back to Chang Jingsi's birthday.

Nine years old means that he can start to learn the most basic demon-killing skills of Changjia.

Chang Jingsi's ninth birthday was not very lively. His mother caught a cold that day. For her own health and to prevent the cold from being transmitted to her children, she said her blessings early and gave gifts to Chang Jingsi. I went back to my room to rest without even eating the birthday cake.

Zhang Yihui spared some time to come over and personally gave a gift, said a word of blessing and left.

Nine years old is not a special age, it is not an age that requires a big birthday party, the Zhang family did not prepare a special banquet for Zhang Jingsi, and did not even invite a single outsider.

His parents left for various reasons one after another after delivering the presents, and in an instant, there were only a few servants who had a good relationship with Jingsi on weekdays and were still sitting in the room.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

In the end, it was Zhang Jingsi who took the initiative to take off the birthday hat on his head, and said to the butler grandpa who was about to retire, "I want to learn to get rid of witchcraft."

For other people's ninth birthday, they wished to spend the whole day of their birthday before starting training. Only Chang Jingsi decided to start learning before the cake was divided.

He is a talented and hardworking kid.

It's comforting...but it's also really scary.

The old housekeeper sighed, it was inconvenient to ask about the Patriarch's affairs, and he had no position to speak.

Rough and warm palms touched the top of Zhang Jingsi's head, the housekeeper grandpa rubbed Zhang Jingsi's hair, and showed him a kind smile: "Okay, our little Jingsi is the best."

Regarding the exorcist who was taught by Zhang Jingsi who was called out to teach in the evening, the reaction to this was good.

The young master is willing to work harder, so he will be there whenever he is called and try his best to teach.

Since the concentration of spiritual power in Chang Jingsi's body can be felt, his talent has not been confirmed by countless people as a very powerful existence.

Sure enough.

It only took more than three hours from evening to night, and Chang Jingsi learned the most basic spell-drawing of the hidden talisman.

As the name suggests, the concealment talisman can hide one's own aura in exchange for avoiding being discovered by monsters in advance during the monster-killing mission.

Even the exorcist who was in charge of teaching him expressed nothing but admiration.

Zhang Jingsi's schedule is very good. As soon as nine o'clock comes, the exorcist is ready to let him go back to sleep after class.

Zhang Jingsi was also going to go back to sleep.

"originally?"

Ah Yan leaned forward and moved a little closer to Zhang Jingsi.

"and then?"

He is like a reader who is attracted by the story and arouses curiosity.

Zhang Jingsi ignored Ah Yan's actions, and he continued, "But when I was returning to my bedroom, I had a sudden thought."

He wanted to use the occult talisman he had drawn, and sneaked into the study room to scare Chang Yihui, and Chang Jingsi wanted to surprise his father.

Children's energy is inherently strange, and they can be very lethargic when they are bored, but once they have some kind of motivation or encounter fun and exciting things, they can use endless energy instead.

Now Chang Jingsi is in this kind of excitement, not only is he not sleepy at all, but he even has inexhaustible energy all over his body.

Just do it.

The concentration of spiritual power in the human body is determined by nature, and it is difficult to improve it through acquired efforts.

So don't look at Zhang Jingsi's young age, in fact, he is very talented, and his spiritual power concentration is higher than most demon exorcists in the entire demon extermination world.

The result of the abundant spiritual power in the body is that Zhang Jingsi successfully drew more than 30 hidden symbols in the three hours of study just now.

Although part of the reason is that the occult talisman itself is very simple to draw, and it is easy for novices to get started quickly, but Zhang Jingsi can successfully draw more than 30 pieces in one go, which is really amazing.

Enough to see his talent.

Anyway, these spells are not dangerous for children to use. Thinking about it this way, Zhang Jingsi, who taught him to exorcise him, took all these spells away.

Think of it as a toy for children, and it has no special purpose except for fun.

The reason why Zhang Jingsi's exorcist was so reassuring was because of the characteristics of the occult talisman itself.

The occult talisman is one of the most commonly used spells in the demon world.

The characteristic of the occult talisman is that using the occult talisman once can restrain the breath for 10 minutes. Zhang Jingsi drew more than 30 pieces in one breath, which means that he can hide for more than five hours continuously.

The advantage of the occult character is that it is easy to draw, it is more prepared at one time, and it is time-sensitive to use, but similarly, its shortcomings are also very obvious.

Although it is called a concealment talisman, the extent to which this talisman can only hide the breath of the user is not enough to make the user invisible.

The user's figure will not become transparent and become invisible along with his presence.

In other words, if you want to use this spell to lurk somewhere, the user also needs to make sure they can find a hiding place to hide themselves.

So if Chang Jingsi was physically seen by someone when he went to the study to find Chang Yihui...

Regardless of how powerful the spell is in hiding the breath, if it is seen by others, he will naturally be exposed directly.

But in the same way, knowing that he was hiding well enough, Zhang Jingsi did not expose any telltale feet, and with the concealment talisman, he could completely hide his aura. Without anyone checking carefully, Zhang Jingsi was almost Impossible to be discovered.

Therefore, Chang Jingsi couldn't walk directly into the study with a concealed talisman.

He wanted to give his father a surprise. If he could hide his body completely and sneak into the study without anyone knowing, then he must be the best.

Ah Yan supported his chin with another hand, and yawned after hearing this, guessing what happened next: "So you really managed to sneak into this study."

"Because I hid so well, and then when I arrived at the study, I accidentally discovered in the study that the father I thought was completely different from the image I imagined?"

Zhang Jingsi nodded and skipped the part that Ah Yan said.

"Father likes to collect all kinds of ceramic products. You have also seen that there are many large and small porcelain vases in the study. I hide behind that big vase."

The study does not have only one door for entry and exit. There is a door in the front that leads to the front yard, and a porch is connected to the back. There is a small exquisite courtyard in the back, which is very edifying.

Chang Jingsi casually pointed, and there was a large vase on the left side of the study near the porch.

With Chang Jingsi's figure, it is more than enough to hide behind this vase.

It may be that the heavens are attached to him, and Zhang Jingsi's luck is very good.

Ah Yan turned his head slightly, and looked in the direction Chang Jingsi pointed.

If Chang Jingsi is hiding behind this big vase, it happens to be a blind spot.

No matter which direction you look at it, you can't see what's behind the vase.

As long as the people staying in the study do not suddenly want to go for a walk on a whim, it is basically impossible to find a person hiding behind the big vase.

Ah Yan nodded.

Even if it was said by an 11-year-old child like Zhang Jingsi, he still wouldn't believe everything.

By nature, Ah Yan is more suspicious.

After seeing the more logical vases in Zhang Jingsi's narrative, Ah Yan's trust in what Zhang Jingsi said rose a little bit.

Although he still doesn't fully believe what Chang Jingji said.

Kashiwahara hadn't looked at the side missions on the game panel for a long time.

Now the progress bar under the side task has slowly climbed up to 15%.

You must know that when Kashiwahara Zamu hadn't met Chang Jingsi just now, the original progress bar of this side mission was only 12%.

From Chang Jingsi's talk about his experience, just from Chang Jingsi's narration, Kashiwahara had been keenly aware of the rising progress bar of the side mission.

Obviously on the surface, it is a father and son conflict due to various misunderstandings.

Just some of the inevitable experiences of being born into a big family.

But it happened that such parents were short-sighted, so that the progress bar on the game interface of Bai Yuanzao rose by 3% in one fell swoop.

Bai Yuan had no premonition that what Zhang Jingji would say next would be a very important clue to his side mission.

After Zhang Jingsi was lucky enough to enter the study all the way, he saw Zhang Yihui who was sitting behind the desk with his back facing him and seemed to be dealing with something from behind the vase.

The target appears!

Seeing his father, Zhang Jingsi originally wanted to go out, so Zhang Yihui stopped him directly to give him a surprise.

Just when Zhang Jingsi was about to come out from behind the big vase to surprise his father, Zhang Yihui spoke.

Zhang Jingsi was taken aback, his legs softened and he sat on the tatami again without paying attention. Fortunately, he didn't make any sound.

When Zhang Jingsi heard his father speak, he thought he had been discovered.

When he was about to come out honestly and apologize, he realized something was wrong.

Father is talking to someone else!

Zhang Jingsi had a certain kind of strong curiosity, so he didn't choose to come out immediately.

He wanted to see if it was true what his father said every time about dealing with work and busying himself with various affairs in the study.

Zhang Jingsi couldn't see who Zhang Yihui was talking to because of his blind spot.

Zhang Yihui said: "Don't worry, she will follow me and nothing will happen."

"Is that so..."

Chang Jingsi said to Ah Yan: "That's all I remember."

He couldn't understand what his father and the god were talking about. Not only did he not understand, but there seemed to be some mysterious power that prevented him from memorizing the content of the conversation by rote.

Ah Yan frowned: "Is there any more?"

Zhang Jingsi stared at Ah Yan, and suddenly felt that some memories that had been forgotten in the subconscious flashed through his mind.

"By the way, I also saw a painting on my father's desk!"

Shiba Jingji opened his eyes wide, as if he had thought of some surprising information.

"A picture?"

Bai Yuan's long-awaited expression straightened.

He observed that on the game panel, the progress of side missions instantly increased by 5% after Chang Jingsi said the key words.

The task enters a jump to reach 20%.

Obviously, that painting is the key word.

Zhang Jingsi nodded, and said firmly: "That's right."

He didn't know why what happened in the study that night, he always recalled it vaguely as if covered by a cloud of fog.

Chang Jingsi originally recalled very limited things, he only remembered those two conversations, and he firmly believed that his father had cheated on his mother, and he didn't remember anything else.

Chang Jingsi is not the kind of forgetful kid, he is very smart and can almost reach the level of photographic memory.

Let go of these inconsistencies for now.

Now following Zhang Jingsi's explanation in front of Ah Yan, it is equivalent to asking him to review what happened a year ago again.

For some unknown reason, Zhang Jingsi can now remember more memories about the night of his ninth birthday.

"The part I remember is that father and the man who was talking to him went to other places through the secret passage to the left of the study."

Zhang Jingsi didn't know why there was a secret passage on the left wall of his study where bookshelves and various decorations were placed.

"I didn't follow up."

When Shiba Shizumi was not with Natori Monday, he was a very calm kid.

He couldn't tell whether the secret passage his father had entered was dangerous, and he might have an accident if he rashly followed it without anyone noticing it.

So he chose not to go in.

Later, when there was no one in the study and the strange secret passage on the left wall disappeared, Zhang Jingsi cautiously walked out from behind the big vase.

He originally wanted to leave, but inadvertently caught a glimpse of the scroll unfolded on the desk.

A man is drawn on the painting.

The man has rare silver hair and golden eyes. He sits casually on a tree, but he can catch a glimpse of a strong temperament from his gestures.

This is a picture scroll full of charm.

Zhang Jingsi didn't have time to look more, he was inexplicably afraid of being discovered by his father, so he took a quick look and left.

But it was enough to leave a deep impression on Dechang Jingji's mind.

Chang Jingsi looked at Kashiwahara Zauna, and said somewhat complicatedly: "I found out that the painting looks very similar to you in appearance."
