Volume 1 The Curtain of the Night Chapter 9 The Choice (The Ninth Update on the First Day)
As soon as Xia Zuo's words fell, Fred smiled and clapped his hands.
"With that kind of momentum, that's pretty good. Fred smiled, "So which Soul Hunter team do you want to join?"
"My choice...... Xia Zuo paused, but finally made a decision.
"The curtain of night. ”
"Yo, boy, why did you choose our Night Veil, so that you can only start as a temporary supernumerary. Fred narrowed his purple eyes, "Or ...... It's because of that ......"
"What are you thinking about?I just don't think it's fun if it's not difficult!" Before Fred's words could be fully spoken, he was glared back by Xia Zuo, whose eyes suddenly widened.
"But I also think it's possible......" A voice suddenly came from behind Xia Zuo, and said faintly.
Xia Zuo even felt a hand behind his back on his right shoulder.
"??!" Xia Zuo jumped suddenly, then grabbed the hand violently and shook it away.
"I'll go!!!" the voice "screamed," Xia Zuo noticed that the voice seemed to be a little familiar.
Xia Zuo took a closer look, only to find that the person who suddenly appeared behind him was Andrew, who had fainted before.
"What's the situation?Andrew, when did you wake up?!"
"Well...... Andrew rubbed his hands and blinked slyly like Fred, "what do you say...... It's pretty early, probably by the time the girl was talking to you, I was already awake. ”
"What......" Xia Zuo only felt as if he was stumbling under his feet.
Xia Zuo glanced back at Fred who was snickering on the side, it seemed that Fred had already noticed Andrew's fake faintness, but he didn't say it directly.
Xia Zuo glared at Fred again, then withdrew his gaze.
It's okay, it's okay...... It shouldn't be a big problem...... Wait, it looks like there's one more thing.
“...... Do you see her face?" Xia Zuo asked after a pause.
"Huh, no, did you see it?" Andrew looked dazed, not like he was lying.
"Oh, that's fine. Xia Zuo breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably.
The girl named "Jasmine Venatasha" seems to be very concerned about being seen in the face...... If it is seen by other people, especially by the Soul Descendants, it will appear very unhappy, although it is not known why.
It's so good-looking.
Xia Zuo thought to himself.
"Speaking of which, why did you not get up until now? and pretended to be unconscious for so long. Xia Zuo came back to his senses and looked very angry, "I risked my life to fight monsters there, but you slept there?"
"Uh...... I thought I'd come up to help...... But then I found that you seem to be able to deal with those monsters smoothly, and if I get up, I may cause trouble, after all, that special revolver and dagger were in your hand at that time, and I didn't have direct access to the tooth and blood seed like you, and I was able to touch the tooth and blood seed before, and it is suspected that the tooth and blood seed were seriously injured and weak. ”
"Also, on a crucial note, I noticed that the girl seems to be getting along well with you...... Cough. Andrew coughed suddenly, "Although I, Andrew, like beautiful women, I still know how to be beautiful, you see what a good friend I am, I know how to create opportunities for you to be alone......" Andrew didn't finish speaking, and was glared back by Xia Zuo.
"Wait, you say beautiful, but you just said you didn't see her face. Xia Zuo noticed the key words, suddenly reacted, and asked out loud.
"Please, I'm a mature man who has read countless women, and from that voice, and Xia Zuo's appearance, I can confirm whether she is a beauty or not. Andrew patted his chest and said confidently.
"Hey, you still read countless women?" Xia Zuo suddenly couldn't help but hold his forehead, "Have you forgotten that the last time you went to the bar, there was not a single woman who 'hooked up' and was kicked out?"
"Hey, don't expose my black history in front of other people!" Andrew couldn't help but glance at Fred who was smiling next to him, and shouted in protest.
"Okay, I won't worry about you. Xia Zuo sighed, and then suddenly remembered something, "Then why did you continue to pretend to faint when Fred came?"
"Well, there are many reasons for this, one of the simple reasons is that it is quite comfortable to lie on the ground, and I am temporarily tired and don't want to get up. Andrew replied casually to Xia Zuo, as if he didn't want to answer Xia Zuo's question seriously because of his mood.
Xia Zuo: "......"
"Alright. Fred pulled out a pocket watch from his pocket, glanced at the time, and suddenly spoke up.
"I guess the captains should have it all done. Fred stood up, "We'll talk next time we have time." ”
"Ah, okay, wait, is it really okay that you've been with us for so long and not help out, and I won't delay your actions, right?" asked Xia Zuo, a little embarrassed.
"You have to believe in the strength of your teammates, that's what the captain said, and I'm afraid it's all over this little thing. A smile welled up in Fred's eyes.
"The important thing is the analysis of these things after they are resolved, and we need to catch the people behind these events. ”
"As for the remaining Tooth and Blood Spirits...... It's really not a cause for concern. ”
"Well, then, it's time for me to go back to the Nightcurtain. Fred walked to the door, then glanced back at Xia Zuo.
"As for your choice...... I'll report you to the captain in time about your choice to be our temporary member, so just keep waiting here, lucky boy. ”
"In three days, remember to go to Rock Street, where there is a detective agency, and I will be waiting for you there. ”
Fred smiled, and a mysterious wind blew over Fred's body, and then Fred's figure disappeared into the doorway.
If you're a detective, you don't think it's strange if you're always out of the way and don't go around investigating...... These soul descendants have really found a suitable industry to cover themselves.
Xia Zuo looked at the place where Fred had disappeared, paused, and then his body went limp, and finally he lay down weakly against the wall next to him.
After all, Xia Zuo had just gone through these battles, and even if Xia Zuo's body was made of steel, he would feel tired.
"I said, Xia Zuo, are you really going to join this organization called Night Veil?" Andrew also collapsed to the ground weakly, Andrew was just an ordinary person after all, and his injuries were not much lighter than Xia Zuo, and it was very good to be able to support it until now, Andrew looked up at the ceiling and suddenly asked out loud.
"yes. Xia Zuo said softly.
"This is an opportunity. ”
"Oh yes, what a chance...... I understand, I understand. Andrew suddenly looked like he suddenly realized, if it weren't for the fact that he felt like he was running out of strength now, otherwise he would definitely be nodding frantically now.
"I'll you!" Xia Zuo couldn't help glaring at Andrew, "I mean work." ”
"I can't find any other job anyway, and the job of this soul-born soul hunter is not bad right now—a good fit for me as a former hunter. Xia Zuo said.
"Wouldn't it be nice to hunt monsters and protect this city?"
"So it doesn't have even the slightest relationship with that girl?" Andrew asked jokingly when he suddenly interrupted Xia Zuo's words.
"Uh......" Xia Zuo's words paused.
"Although it seems that it does have a little bit to do with that incident......" Xia Zuo's voice suddenly lowered, as if he was a little embarrassed.
"Well, I understand, I can understand your choice. Andrew said hesitantly, "After all, I am also a person who likes beautiful women." ”
"I'll you, it's not a question of liking beautiful women!" Xia Zuo couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth inexplicably, "It's that look, I seem to see something in that look, how to say it, there is an inexplicable sense of familiarity, and there are other feelings, it's very complicated, and it's hard for me to explain clearly." ”
"Men will find good-looking women look familiar. Andrew couldn't help but retort to Xia Zuo, "But if you really care about these things, then go for it." Andrew's voice suddenly became serious.
"Don't be like me, you don't even have the right to regret it......" Andrew whispered.
"Lots of choice...... Perhaps many people feel that it doesn't matter, that this is just a choice to take one road, and after seeing the scenery of this road, they will go back and take another road to see. But sometimes there is no turning back when you step into this road, and when you step into this road, you will find more and more forks in the road, and eventually get lost in these roads, and you will never find your way back. ”
"Sometimes, a seemingly simple choice is really from the beginning...... It determines the whole fate. ”
