69.

The matter of Xuezhi joining the Armed Detective Agency has been preliminarily settled, but the time to actually start working has to wait.

One is because after this incident, the Armed Detective Agency still has some follow-up matters that need to be dealt with slowly.

The second is Xuezhi's body, after being in a coma for so many days, it needs to take a good rest for a while.

Xue Zhi's internship at the Armed Detective Agency is scheduled for a week later.

She thinks this is also very good.

Losing her diligence, she didn't want to go to work at all. At that time, she agreed to join the armed detective agency because she had quarreled with Ranpo and was impulsive.

If she hadn't promised her father and didn't want him to worry too much about her, she might have regretted it before they left.

"Okay, okay, it's a good thing to join the Armed Detective Agency. I can meet my father often in the future, which is very good."

"I can also better grasp the supernatural powers, so that in case someone troubles me in the future, I can't even protect myself, and even make my younger brothers suffer together."

Xuezhi lay down and accepted the upcoming fate of going to work.

"Fortunately, it can be delayed for another week." Xuezhi rejoiced in her heart.

At this moment, she was yawning while helping fourth brother Guang pack his luggage.

Asahina raised her hand to help her wipe away the physiological tears from the corners of her eyes, and looked at her with some distress: "Sister, you should go to rest, I can clean up these things myself."

Xuezhi smiled and said, "It's okay, I can do it."

Her love for her younger brother can completely overwhelm her laziness, but it's just a simple thing like helping to pack her luggage, it's not a problem for her at all!

"Really, you've only been here for a few days this time, and you're going on a long trip again." Xuezhi couldn't help complaining in a low voice.

Guang brushed his long hair, and smiled coquettishly: "After all, getting out of the port mafia is not a trivial matter. I'm busy there and can't take care of it, so I went out to wash my resume incognito."

"Don't worry, I have no problem at all." Facing Shang Xuezhi's worried eyes, Guang blinked his right eye and flew out a wink. Write the next book."

"Okay, you've got everything planned, so what else can I say." Xuezhi gave him an annoyed look, "I know you're smart, but you have to take care of yourself when you're alone."

"You don't have to worry at home, Asahina's family is not easy to get along with, and my father is there, the port mafia won't come after me." Xue Zhi zipped the suitcase and exhaled.

Light held her hand: "Well, I'm not worried."

Before he joined the port mafia, he had started to prepare for leaving the port mafia. He had already arranged the escape route, and the safety of his sister and brothers was the point of his attention.

He smoothed Shun Xuezhi's long hair: "Sister, don't worry about me, your brother and I are very powerful."

Xuezhi smiled at him, and then the two fell into silence, as if they had a lot to say but couldn't say anything.

After a while, Guang pretended to be relaxed and said: "The Armed Detective Agency, if my sister really doesn't want to go, it's okay not to go, don't force yourself. I will help you find a way for the matter of supernatural powers."

With a lock of Xuezhi's hair wrapped around his fingers, the repeated, gentle movements eased his inner worries a little.

"It doesn't matter, I decided to go." Xuezhi held Guang's hand, gently but firmly.

Just like the suitcase she packed in front of her, her love for her brother is enough for her to overcome her laziness.

Moreover, since her father and Ranpo established the Armed Detective Agency, she has always seen this organization in her eyes. She understands it, and it is precisely because of her understanding that she will not really resist it.

Watching Guang drive away from the underground garage, even though Xuezhi knew that he must have arranged everything that followed, she still couldn't help but worry in her heart.

When she stepped onto the elevator, the smile on the corner of her mouth gradually faded.

Xuezhi lowered her head and looked at her hands. They were white, soft and without any calluses. Anyone who looked at them would say that their fingers did not touch the spring water.

The eldest lady who is going smoothly, her first 28 years of life can be easily summed up in seven words.

With such hands, such a person, can she really have the ability to protect important people?

Xuezhi couldn't help self-doubt.

She is so weak, she is surrounded by timidity and laziness...

-

"Can I really protect important people?"

To Xuezhi's question, Zhou Fangzun, who followed Xuezhi's eleventh younger brother Yusuke to visit her at the Mansion of Dawn, answered: "Of course."

Xuezhi didn't expect Zhou Fangzun to answer her without hesitation.

In her heart, Zhou Fangzun, the Scarlet King, is undoubtedly a powerful and steadfast guardian.

When she was troubled and confused by this question, his figure was the first thing that popped up in her mind.

But Zhou Fangzun appeared in front of her at this moment.

The moment Shensi accidentally asked this question, Xuezhi wished to turn back time.

"It's really embarrassing... It's too embarrassing to be confused because of this kind of thing." Xuezhi didn't dare to turn her head to see Zhou Fangzun's reaction.

Then she heard Zhou Fangzun's resounding words hitting her ears of course.

It was as if, this matter seemed to him to be a matter of course.Just like he loves drinking strawberry milk for granted.

Xuezhi turned his head uncontrollably, his tall figure was reflected in his wide eyes.

She heard Zhou Fangzun say: "It was you... who protected me four years ago, didn't you?"

His voice was still low, but when he uttered a certain word, his magnetic voice suddenly softened and became a little vague.

Xuezhi blinked, and a guess came to her mind.

She tilted her head and said nothing, just looked at him more intently.

Zhou Fangzun looked away unnaturally, pretending to be unintentional, lowered his head and sat beside her.

He sat there well-behaved, with his back straight, completely different from his usual domineering and lazy sitting posture.

Xuezhi leaned against the back of the sofa, looked at his slightly red ears, and chuckled softly: "Zun, were you shy just now?"

Silence, silence is today's living room.

Zhou Fangzun didn't speak, and didn't look back at Xuezhi, he just sat there, motionless, as if nothing could touch his heartstrings.

If he hadn't seen his ears getting redder and redder, Xuezhi might have believed it.

"No..." After a long time, Zhou Fangzun finally spoke.

It's just that the voice he spoke this time, no matter how he heard it, he felt unconfident.

"Oh?" Xuezhi changed her comfortable sitting posture, straightened up and leaned over, "Then why don't you dare to look at me?"

Zhou Fangzun shut up again.

His eyes were fixed on the front, but there was only an empty TV wall in front of him, and a dark TV screen that had not been turned on.

"Is it because you told the truth?" Xuezhi laughed, "There's nothing to be shy about."

When she said this, she completely forgot that she was also embarrassed by the question she blurted out just now, and she also didn't dare to look at Zhou Fangzun.

Xuezhi forgot, but Zhou Fangzun did not.

"Aren't you the same just now?" Zhou Fangzun tilted his head slightly, but still looked away from Xuezhi awkwardly.

He continued to speak with difficulty: "Guarding important people or something."

This time his voice was still a little vague, with a faint hint of a broken jar.

Because Xuezhi leaned over to tease him, the two were very close at this moment, and she could hear him very clearly.

Xuezhi: The smile gradually disappears.gif

"I didn't..." Xuezhi quietly moved aside, trying to increase the distance between her and Zhou Fangzun.

Finally he couldn't feel Xuezhi's body temperature, Zhou Fangzun secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He turned his head to look at Xuezhi, and found that she turned her head away and didn't dare to look at him, it was exactly the same as before.

"Oh?" Zhou Fangzun raised the corners of his mouth unconsciously, imitating what Xuezhi said before, "Then why don't you dare to look at me?"

Xuezhi froze immediately.

Zhou Fangzun, who had pulled back a city, relaxed his straight back, leaned back, put his stretched arms on the back of the sofa behind Xuezhi, and turned his head to look at Xuezhi's reddish side face.

His fingers tapped gently on the back of the sofa, little by little, as if hitting Xuezhi's heart.

"I...I'm busy." Xuezhi stammered, "I'll tell you when I find the most comfortable sitting position."

After talking about it, the smoother and smoother it was, Xuezhi himself believed it.

As she moved to the edge of the sofa, she felt that she was such a clever little ghost, and she could come up with excuses for such a genius.

She moved to the far side of the sofa like a little snail, propped her elbows on the armrest of the sofa and turned sideways to look at Zhou Fangzun.

Xuezhi dried up the embarrassment just now while concentrating on moving.

Zhou Fangzun also tacitly skipped the embarrassing topic for both of them, and started talking about the real business.

"What happened four years ago, I just remembered it recently, sorry." Zhou Fangzun's golden eyes focused on Xue Zhi, which was as warm as the midday sun.

Xue Zhi scratched the side of her face, a little uncomfortable: "Ah, this, I can't blame you, I don't remember the specific situation before."

She explained: "There must have been some strange reaction between my supernatural power and the Dresden Stone, which caused all of us to forget what happened at that time."

"Because of this incident, my supernatural ability has been restored, and the related memories have also been unsealed. In the future... this kind of thing should not happen again."

Zhou Fangzun nodded, expressing his understanding.

He turned his head to meet Xuezhi's gaze, and asked her: "You said at that time that your supernatural power is exchange."

Xuezhi nodded. After recovering her memory, she realized that she actually met Zhou Fangzun four years ago. In order to persuade him to act together, she told him that her supernatural power was exchange.

"What... did you use in exchange that time?" Zhou Fangzun paused and asked, "Can you tell me?"

Xuezhi was stunned for a moment.

She didn't expect Zhou Fangzun to ask this question.

She didn't think it was something worth concealing. When Fukuzawa Yukichi asked before, she didn't stop Ranpo who had already guessed it from speaking out.

But this time when Zhou Fangzun asked, for some reason, Xuezhi subconsciously didn't want to tell him.

Xuezhi smiled subconsciously, and asked him deliberately: "Why do you ask this? You don't want to make up for me with guilt, do you?"

Zhou Fangzun was not fooled by her, his warm golden eyes focused on her with a dizzying halo inside.

"Can't you tell me?" he asked.
