"How?"

After using the No. 13 sample on the body of the thirteenth test subject, and after the test subject also stopped all physiological activities, the little doctor fairy turned his head and asked with some expectation.

Deep Snow looked her cheeks up and down.

In the blink of an eye or so, a dark shadow emerged from the dead Subject Thirteen.

"Tsk, failed. Deep Snow shook her head, "The soul body is intact, and there is no sign of being corrupted by poison." ”

"That's right......"

"Well, let's go, let's slow down the research on this project for the time being, and wait until I grab a copy of those guys' exercises. ”

Deep Snow turned around and walked out of the alley.

Behind him, the little medicine fairy clapped his hands, collected the thirteen samples into a cloth bag, and hurriedly followed suit.

Passing by the alley, she took off the soundproof spirit talisman posted on the wall with great skill, and her footsteps did not stop at all.

A black cat appeared in the air, swirling the two halves of the runes that had fallen in the air, and then dissipated into a puff of smoke.

The wind passed through the alley and kicked up a cloud of smoke.

Nothing else.

……

About two weeks before the end of the auction, Deep Snow, who had just returned from the waves, said: Am I in the wrong place?

Xiaojiafang City, which was originally full of people, was rarely crowded at this time, revealing a strong sense of depression.

Anyway, she's only been away for two weeks, isn't it? What's going on? The Xiao family is dead?

After turning around, Shenxue found a group of seven or eight big men wearing the uniform costumes of the Xiao family in a dark place, like dried salted fish, stupid, staggering and resting there.

Deep Snow: "......"

Truth be told, her first thought at the time was......

Oh, it turns out that the Xiao family is not dead!

So......

What's going on?

"Ahem-" At this thought, Deep Snow coughed lightly to attract attention.

"Huh, Miss Four?"

"Fourth Miss!?"

The two men who were the first to come back to their senses exclaimed, and at the same time quickly got up and kicked a few feet of the man who was still lying down.

"Death, get up!

After a chaotic commotion, seven big men stood straight in front of Shenxue, and one of them went to call someone.

After a while, I saw Payne running after the big man who had gone to call someone.

"Well, Fourth Miss......" he called out embarrassedly.

Shen Xue nodded: "I haven't been in Utan City for the past two weeks, have there been any special incidents recently? She asked as she walked.

Then, suddenly, turn back.

I saw that the seven men who were still standing straight just now plus the eighth big man who had just joined the team became soft again, as if they had lost their bones.

Immediately, the corners of Shenxue's mouth twitched a little.

They're ...... Sick in idle?

What the deep snow saw, Payne certainly saw.

The cold sweat surged up with a roar of anger.

"A bunny bunny, you don't want to eat this bowl of rice, do you?Isn't it!?Why don't you get out of here and go on patrol!!"

"Yes!"

Listening to the neat roar of everyone, and the swift and neat departure of the back, he was a little relieved, and his anger decreased a little.

No matter how bad the city is now, patrolling is their task.

During the mission, no matter what the reason, this lazy mentality is not right.

Once Deep Snow is really angry, it is light to expel them from the escort team.

And as the captain of their bodyguard, he will definitely enjoy joint and several responsibilities as well.

Raising his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, Payne turned around and smiled at Shenxue with a little flattery: "Fourth Miss, look ......"

Deep Snow was speechless for a moment and waved her hand.

"Not as an example. ”

"Understood, subordinates understood!"

"So let's continue with the topic just now, what happened during my absence?"

"That's right, a few days ago, the Galie family didn't know where to find a first-class alchemist and refined a healing medicine called 'Rejuvenation San' for the Galie family, which directly monopolized the market ......"

"Why didn't the family secretly kill that first-grade alchemist who came from nowhere?"

"Well, we want to do this too, but let's not say that killing an alchemist is like stabbing a hornet's nest, just because the Nagalie family has sent at least two Great Dou Master guards to that first-grade alchemist, we can't assassinate it quietly. ”

"Oh, does the family have any other way to do it?"

"Well, the patriarch asked the alchemist of the Temir Auction House, Master Gu Ni helped refine hundreds of bottles of healing medicine, but it was only an expedient measure, and after selling out, the situation quickly changed back to the original state. Of course, we are certainly not afraid if Master Gu Ni fully supports it, but the Temir Auction House has always been neutral, and Master Gu Ni will naturally not fully support our Xiao family for no reason. ”

"Oh, so, the key is how to kill that first-grade alchemist, right?"

Shen Xue nodded knowingly.

"Ha......" The expression on Payne's face froze when he heard this, and he couldn't help but stop his steps, and he couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes, "Huh??No, Miss Shenxue, are you serious?"

"Of course. Shenxue said, and the direction under her feet was turning.

Payne hurriedly braked.

"Miss Fuyuki's ......"

"Well, you don't have to follow. Deep Snow waved her hand in disgust, "You'll hold me back, Uncle Payne." ”

Payne: "......" pierced Lao Tie's heart.

But looking at Shenxue's petite back, how could he possibly put his mind at ease?

He was about to chase.

However, it was only a blink of an eye, and the deep snow that was still in front of me just now was gone, no, see, it!

Payne: "......" suddenly understood why he was being seen as a drag.

Standing there for a moment, he quickly turned around and ran quickly in the direction of the family.

……

"Patriarch, I have something important to do!"

Payne rushed back to Xiao's house in a hurry, but found that everyone was gathered in the courtyard in front of the hall, and after hearing his shout, not only did he not have the slightest eagerness, but he was also very angry.

"Old gentleman, Payne, don't be rude!" Xiao Zhan rebuked majestically.

"No, patriarch......" Payne said hurriedly.

"Shut up, Payne, the old man's business is the biggest and most priority in the clan now, if you miss the old man's business, can you take responsibility?" Compared to Xiao Zhan, the Great Elder's words were even more merciless.

Payne: "......"

He wanted to try a little harder, but the Great Elder had already turned his head and continued to talk to the old gentleman in black robes.

Xiao Zhan thought about it, and chose to continue to talk to the old gentleman about the cooperation of 'the old gentleman refining healing medicine and then handing it over to the Xiao family for sale'.

There is no doubt that once the negotiation is completed, the Xiao family will definitely be able to fight a beautiful turnaround.

At least, it certainly won't be the one-sided decline that it is now!

Under the black robe, Xiao Yan, who pretended to be an old gentleman: "......"

Actually, he wanted to hear what Payne had to say first, but looking at Xiao Zhan's expectant eyes...... Well, let's talk about business first.

Payne: "...... Patriarch, you'll regret it, I'll tell you."

The little doctor who went back to Xiao's house to wait first: "......" Look at this urgency, after a little thought, she can guess what happened, what did the wayward guy Shenxue say to him?

……

Stealthily came to the deep snow of the Galie family, he swaggered in from the main gate, and by the way, he pasted another breath talisman for himself.

She wasn't in a hurry, but wandered around the hallway casually.

Until, a guard with two pale faces marched in one direction......
