Chapter 141: The Shen Family
It was true that Qin Yao's demon core had already been used by the stealth killer for most of it, and he was now using half of the remaining part. In other words, in order to "recharge" about two hundred points of telekinesis, Qin Yao consumed about one-quarter to one-fifth of the energy of a medium-grade magic core.
In this way, if his 550 points of telekinesis were to be filled, a medium-quality magic core would be able to fully charge him twice at most.
Too extravagant, right?
Yao Qin and the others have all said that the magic core is very expensive, and many times it has no price. If Qin Yao did this, he was basically burning money.
"But compared to the embarrassment of not being able to use telekinesis during battle, it is worth burning money. The mental power during the battle, that is equivalent to a life!" Qin Yao put away the remaining demon core that used at least seventy or eighty percent of the energy.
This is the equivalent of a power bank, which can be replenished with ammunition at any time.
Of course, if you can get a high-grade magic core, you will have more "charging" times, which will be more convenient.
……
After noon, Qin Yao finally arrived in Rongcheng, and then took a taxi straight to the famous Shen family. This is a manor-style mansion, an excellent location on the outskirts of Rongcheng. A four-storey main building, plus two two-storey white annexes with a private garden and spacious lawn in front...... In short, there is one word everywhere - rich.
Rich, but tasteful. Qin Yao had to feel that his imagination was limited by poverty, because the goal he had set for himself was to mortgage a small apartment within three years after graduation, and strive to pay off the mortgage completely before the age of thirty.
is such a small goal, and they are still scorned by the second and third children, in this era of housing prices and dead fathers, who doesn't think that you, a college student, are bragging.
But after seeing such a top-notch mansion in front of him, Qin Yao really felt that the hero's ambition was gone. What is the struggle, even if ordinary people don't eat or drink and struggle with super intensity for ten lifetimes, they can't earn such a manor.
As for visiting directly, it was because they had been contacted on the phone before, but the people of the Shen family had not paid attention to Qin Yao at all.
It's very simple, everyone will not admit that there is a deal with the ink person, let alone expose the fact that the Shen family has taken in a demon. Especially on the phone, the devil knows what you're going to do, will the phone be recorded, is there someone next to you to supervise the eavesdropping?
Therefore, it is necessary to go directly to the door.
Moreover, Qin Yao believed that the Shen family would not offend themselves too much, because they were also worried that Qin Yao would tell them about it.
That's right, Qin Yao won't come out to report it directly, but he can completely fan the yin wind behind his back. For example, posting gossip on the Observer Forum to let people know that the Lord of Gluttony was staying at the Shen family at this time.
Explain the details such as the time when Shen Heming entered the mountain to search that day, at least the Holy Sect Zhu Shiduo will feel that it is reasonable and have the time to trade with Song Ciyin. In this way, the Shen family will get into trouble.
Sure enough, when Qin Yao came to the door in person, the situation was different. After the gate post reported his identity, a small sightseeing car in the venue drove over after a while, and took Qin Yao along the riverside path straight to the main building, and things went very smoothly.
But he was not allowed to go to the main building, but was directly sent into a two-story small white building next to it, and he was also received by Shi An, Shen Heming's proud disciple who he saw in the mountains that day.
Shi Ang is a very polite young man, and he also knows that he is not a child surnamed Shen, so he is more cautious and humble in the Shen family, and he has always been kind to others.
"Snubbing Brother Qin. Shi Ang enthusiastically led Qin Yao into a small reception room, and when he entered the door, there was a beeping electronic alarm. Shi Ang smiled embarrassedly, "Our rules here, don't bring electronic devices in, and I hope Brother Qin will understand, Brother Qin is also a specific errand runner." ”
I was even worried that the conversation would be recorded...... Qin Yao can be regarded as having seen the careful prudence of these wealthy families. Of course, it is also because the things to be discussed this time are too important. If it is a daily contact, it will not be so cautious.
Qin Yao didn't mind handing over his mobile phone to the person at the door, and after entering the small reception room and taking a seat, he immediately expressed his intention.
Qin Yao: "It's purely just to investigate the Heavenly Council, and the Demon is originally an important member of the Heavenly Council, of course, the Lord of Gluttony may also be related to this organization." ”
Shi Ang frowned and said, "Yes, we also know this from her mouth. ”
Qin Yao: "And I have joined the Hunter Company now, which is originally my duty. Although the company I work for is not very well-known, you can look into ......."
Shi Ang immediately smiled bitterly and waved his hand: "Brother Qin, don't be joking, although the Shen family is lonely and unheard, the great name of the hunter company is still like thunder to us." Besides, Brother Qin, you beat Brother Gongsun in the Eastern District of the Holy Sect, and this matter has become very hot, so we naturally know about your joining the Hunter Company. ”
Qin Yao nodded, and said in his heart Since you know everything, it will be better. "So I'm just here for the case as well. As for the issue of secrecy in the future, we are actually grasshoppers on the same rope, and of course I will continue to keep my mouth shut. ”
Shi Angzhi shook his head: "It's not that I'm worried about Brother Qin's character, but that the little junior sister (Shen Ying) is no longer in the Shen family." My wife went abroad for a walk, and when she left, she naturally had to take her baby daughter with her. ”
brought Shen Ying back to take care of Shen Heming's wife's emotions.
Qin Yao frowned: "That...... When will she be back?"
Shi An: "I didn't say it, but since my wife and her old man went out for a vacation because they were sheltering from the cold, they had to wait until after the beginning of spring to come back." ”
Spring...... It's still a few months. At that time, Qin Yao's internship period has expired, and he will still handle a bird feather case.
As for phone calls now? Sorry, not allowed. No one can disturb his wife's vacation, and Shen Ying has always been by his wife's side, and it is easy to expose her identity if she answers the phone rashly.
Anyway, he was extra careful, which made Qin Yao very depressed.
But at this time, Bai Jiahei suddenly gave a message in Qin Yao's arms-
"Boss, something is not right, you ask him when Shen Ying left. ”
Oh, Qin Yao then asked.
Shi Ang said that Shen Ying had been gone for seven or eight days, which was unfortunate.
So Bai Jiahei immediately made a firm judgment: "He's lying!"
Why?
Bai plus black: "I just asked Shen Ying about Shen Ying's breath outside the building! I had direct contact with Shen Ying in the cabin, and I definitely smelled her breath well." If she's been away from this place for a day or two, maybe there's a little bit of breath left. But according to Shi An, if he has been away for seven or eight days, then Shen Ying's breath should definitely not appear!"
You must know that there is a large empty courtyard outside, and the mountain breeze blows the air, and if a person leaves this place for seven or eight days, it is impossible to leave any smell.
But why did Shi Ang say that? Could it be that he simply didn't want Qin Yao to see Shen Ying, so as not to cause any extraneous complications?
Since he couldn't figure out the other party's true intentions, Qin Yao didn't rush to ask. After a few simple farts slaps, he said goodbye to Shi Ang with regret.
Shi Ang is also a polite person, and warmly invited Qin Yao to have dinner. Of course, it was also a scene, who knew that Qin Yao borrowed the slope to roll and smiled: "How embarrassing you are to be so polite...... But I was really a little hungry, so I got off the train and ran straight here, and I haven't eaten lunch yet. ”
Shi An: "......"
Big brother, don't you know that there is a word called "politeness"? A real person like you generally can't survive three episodes on the rivers and lakes.
But now that the words have been spoken, Shi Ang can only bite the bullet and continue to entertain. But it certainly won't be too high-spec, just arrange a meal in the maid's dining room in the other annex building opposite. However, the meals will definitely be made carefully, but the high-level officials of the Shen family will not serve the meals.
It doesn't matter, then it will take at least half an hour to eat. Qin Yao, accompanied by Shi An, walked around the lawn casually, and sighed as he walked, feeling the magnanimity of the Shen family, just like Grandma Liu entering the Rongguo Mansion, full of soil buns.
Shi Ang couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, but on the surface, he was silent and kept accompanying him, there are really not many young people like him who are so patient.
And in the process of visiting along the way, Bai Jiahei kept sniffing in Qin Yao's arms. Until he walked to a small pond on the right side of the main building, the little tiger suddenly became a little emotional-
"Boss, this is it, Shen Ying's taste is very strong...... No, how do I think there is still that Shen Heming's breath!"
Shen Heming is also there? But Shi Ang also said just now that Shen Heming is not in the Shen family these days.
Emotional Shi An, this kid seems to be loyal, but in fact, he doesn't have half the truth in his mouth.
But Qin Yao remained silent on the surface and silently noted down the location. It wasn't until after eating the Shen family's "dinner" at four o'clock in the afternoon that he said goodbye to Shi Ang in a thank you.
Shi Ang smiled on his face, and his mother sold criticism in his heart, and while waving his hand, he secretly scolded Qin Yao for being too troublesome, and he had delayed himself for so long.
It wasn't until Qin Yao's figure disappeared from sight that Shi Ang restrained his smile, took out his mobile phone and made a call-
"Master, Qin Yao, this stupid boy is gone. It's really hard, so I politely said that he really stayed for a meal. ”
Shen Heming's voice came: "Is it just for eating?"
Shi An: "I didn't find anything else. This kid is nothing more than a bun of soil entering the city, and he feels rare when he sees anything. In fact, it's normal.,The little turtle who has been in school before.,I was an orphan when I was a child.,Obviously, everything feels fresh.。 ”
"It's good that it's okay. Shen Heming then said, "You hurry up and come to me, this beast is still so hard-mouthed, it's time to think of another way." ”
Shi Ang agreed, and hurriedly walked to the side of the main building, which was exactly the smell that Bai Jiahei said.
