Chapter 19: The Dead Body
Who would have believed that this house with pink walls, pink tables and chairs, pink beds, and even a room full of dolls would be a necromancer's residence!
That spider-strewn house just now looks like a necromancer lives there!
"Star Chronicle ......," the little black shadow timidly tugged at my cloak.
I looked down...... That's right, just keep your head down, because this guy is only waist-high to me...... I glared at the necromancer with a stern and fierce look.
The little black shadow was stared at by me and squatted down, sobbing quietly,
"What are you crying about, you're a necromancer!" I glared at the little black shadow in disbelief, and said fiercely, "And the person who wants to cry should be me, not only was I slashed and bleeding all over the street, but everyone also suspected that I had done something that was not acceptable, so there was a death knight pestering me. 」
"I don't know if you really did it......" The little black shadow whispered.
I gritted my teeth and glared at the little black shadow and slowly picked it up......
In a house with peach-colored walls, peach-colored floors, and peach-colored beds next to it, a handsome man with honey-colored skin sat on a pink chaise longue, and on his knees sat a pink-carved little girl with big eyes and curly blond hair, who looked almost five years old, almost as cute as a doll.
It's just that under a closer look, this girl's skin is still a little pink and white, which makes people feel weird, and goosebumps quietly creep up her back......
"So, you don't know where the corpse came from?" I frowned.
"Nasty! Don't call people dead corpses, people call them peaches!" The pink and white girl held a lollipop in her hand, and pouted and complained, but after being glared at by me, she explained aggrievedly: "People just went to the execution ground to buy a corpse and came back, just like before, and Xingji, you said last time that it would be a better monster, so people spent a lot of money to buy a complete corpse...... I didn't know that the corpse's resentment and obsession were so strong that it would become a death knight. 」
Pink tilted her head to look at me, and said with a cute expression, "And his obsession just happens to be Xingji you!"
"But I don't know that guy!" I'm going crazy, I haven't seen him yet, why is his obsession with me?
Momoko didn't believe me or not, she just lowered her head and licked her lollipop.
I frowned and said, "You said the corpse was bought at the execution ground, is it a criminal?"
"Probably not. Pink looked up, although her little face was still just as cute, but there was a sense of maturity in her eyes...... Who knows how old this necromancer who likes to pretend to be cute is.
"I don't know?" I touched my nose and asked suspiciously, "Aren't all criminals sent to the execution ground?"
Momoko smiled at me with disdain: "On the surface, yes, but people tell you, people have experience in buying corpses for many years, and many corpses that are difficult to handle and afraid of being found can be piled up on the corpses of criminals at the execution ground for a small fee. 」
"Is this true? How can you be sure you're not a criminal?" I frowned, do you want to tell Genyu about this news and let him investigate?
"You little fool!" Momoko said gloatingly, "The dead in the execution ground are all hanged, I have bought a lot of corpses, and there are strangulation marks on their necks, so people are very familiar with corpses, and at a glance they know that they are just strangled with a rope after they are dead, and the neck bone is not broken at all, so they are not hanged." 」
"How did that Death Knight die?"
I still decided to put aside the fraud case in the execution ground for now, and now it is more important to wash away my grievances first.
Momoko looked cute and tilted her little head, thought about it carefully, and chose the most correct answer: "He was tortured to death, he had too many scars on his body, he should have been tortured for a long time, and of course he died in the end." 」
Tortured to death...... My scalp started to tingle.
"But the star ......" Momoko suddenly looked at me with a wistful look, "I didn't even know that you had this hobby, next time we can exchange methods with each other, you know, I can't even beat a death knight." 」
Hearing this, I grabbed Momoko's shoulder frantically and shook it violently, "Communicate with a ghost! I said, I don't know him!"
The peach was shaken back and forth by me for a while, the two watery eyeballs swayed up and down like crazy, there was a tendency to fall out, I quickly slapped her eyeballs back into the eye sockets with both hands, I didn't want to see the sight of the eyeballs falling out.
"I know, people don't know anything that has been abused by others!" Momoko looked at me with a playful smile.
I cursed, this damn thing...... No, she's a dead guy in the first place, and this vicious necromancer just doesn't believe I didn't torture the Death Knight.
"Where did you buy the corpse?"
"The one outside the city to the northwest. 」
"The farthest one, ......" It seems that my suffering continues to increase.
I resigned myself to getting up from the recliner, although the next thing I wanted to do was to fall over to the pink bed next to me, hold the pink cake pillow on the bed, and sleep him for three days and three nights......
However, the reality always backfired, and the next thing I had to do was walk to a place full of corpses and interrogate the corrupt corpse handler about where the rotting corpse came from.
Just thinking about it makes me feel like my future is bumpy......
I pushed the pink and white doll corpse off my knees, and slowly got up and walked more slowly to the door......
When I heard the call, I turned my head to see that Peaches was leaning against the door, licking her colorful lollipop, her big pretty eyes winking at me.
"You know, what people have said before still counts, if you want, I can accept you as an apprentice at any time, and even the temple and your master, who claims to be the strongest Star Age Holy Angel, can't let me hand over my apprentice from me. 」
I was stunned, a little unsure, is this what I mean?!
Although the corpse is a bizarre necromancer, to be honest, it is really righteous enough.
I tore away a rather weak smile and waved goodbye to her, but the little girl mage didn't say anything, happily shaking her lollipop to say goodbye to me.
