Chapter Twenty-Four: A Visitor
My heart was full of doubts. Maybe it's because I have great doubts about Xiao Zheng as a person, so I habitually doubt everything that appears around him. Or maybe it's because the timing of this hedgehog is so coincidental, and I can't help but have a question mark about his arrival. I was doing what I was doing, but I couldn't help but look in the direction of the closed office.
But before I could figure it out, Xiao Zheng called me into his office.
"Who is this?" Seeing me enter the door, the visitor looked at Xiao Zheng, frowned, and looked incomprehensible, as if he was very dissatisfied with my entry.
"Whatever you want to say, you don't need to hide it in front of this girl, because he can see everything you hide. In front of it, you will not have secrets. "Although I don't know why, I feel that Xiao Zheng seems to be supporting me again, and I have a wow, I have such an amazing feeling, it is a feeling that I have never had in front of these monsters.
Although it feels good, I don't know the meaning of Xiao Zheng's words after all, looking at the monster next to me secretly looking at the eyes, I thought about it, in order to conform to Xiao Zheng's adjective character for me, so I silently glanced at the monster, expressionless, cold, and quietly pretended to be forced. This must look very noble and glamorous, and the worldly masters in the TV series are all behaving like this, I thought to myself.
The other party seemed to be frightened by my non-cannibalistic appearance, so he didn't say anything anymore, but stood aside and looked at Xiao Zheng.
"All right, sir, now you can begin to say what you just looked at me and hesitated but didn't say."
I don't know what the two of them are doing in the office at this time, why Xiao Zheng doesn't even seem to know each other's names, is it that the two of them have been staring at each other in the office, it's really incomprehensible.
"Mr. Xiao Zheng, I seem to have introduced myself to you just now." Hearing Xiao Zheng call himself that gentleman, this hedgehog clan seemed to be very dissatisfied, maybe he thought it was the least respect. But this also proves from the side that the two of them still said a few words in the office, at least they know each other's names, which is okay, a little better than I just thought.
"Yes, you said it, but this assistant of mine doesn't know, so could you please reintroduce yourself?" Xiao Zheng smiled.
It shouldn't be that I'm being amorous, Xiao today just seems to be deliberately helping me increase my momentum, is it so that I, an ordinary human being, is it important to meet with this kind of monster, I really don't understand what Xiao is thinking. But he must have had his own plans, so I just had to suffer in silence.
The hedgehog clan took a deep breath, and the monster and the monster could often easily understand whether the other party's demon power was strong, just like what he meant at the beginning, and he could see Xiao Zheng's power at a glance. This hedgehog clan is too, although Xiao Zheng's behavior makes him very unhappy, he seems to have only one way to forcibly endure it, after all, he has no way to compete with Xiao Zheng. Therefore, in the face of absolute strength, any word is false and powerless.
"Okay, this young lady, hello, my name is Zheng Gong, and I am a monster." The other party looked at me, introduced himself, and deliberately accentuated the sentence that I was a monster, it seems, whether he wanted me to show a scared look, or did he want me to think he was crazy. No matter which of these two is it, in short, it is obvious, he seems to be looking forward to my reaction, these monsters, obviously so afraid of Xiao Zheng, but they despise me so much that Xiao Zheng has already shown his attention, in the end, he still looks down on all human beings, and there is a sense of racial superiority.
He wanted me to make a fool of myself in order to slap Xiao Zheng in the face. It's a pity that he is going to be disappointed. Even though I'm a very humble human being, in their eyes, I still have the ability to press the bottom of the box. Speaking of which, Xiao Zheng said that their hedgehog clan is weak and wants to die, but the result is still so arrogant to humans. That's why I've always believed that youkai and humans are never suitable for coexistence. At least one of them, there is no such sincerity.
"Well, hello, I'm Yiqing. I know, you're a hedgehog. "I spoke with great ease, as if it were a trivial matter. Looking at his surprised eyes, I didn't say anything, my expression was faint. Although I don't know why Xiao Zheng pushed me to the stage like this, passivity is not my true nature, and since Xiao Zheng has said it so clearly, there is no need for me to pretend in front of this monster anymore. Instead of passively bearing it, it is better to take the initiative and make him startled.
It's just that what Xiao Zheng wants to do. I found that I couldn't understand the snake demon more and more. But it's still a sentence, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, just let it be.
Although he was a little puzzled to be able to see through his identity to the outside world, looking at Xiao Zheng sitting behind the desk, Zheng Gong still held back his words, and then honestly explained his intention today.
"Are you investigating the case of the accidental death of a student in No. 5 Middle School now, I turned myself in, and I killed that student." This hedgehog clan is very simple, in a word, explaining the purpose of his visit today,
And it was this simple first sentence that surprised me, what kind of thing is this, is it that now the goblins are also willing to confess leniency and resist strictly? If you turn yourself in now, why did you use demonic power to cover up the truth of the murder in the first place, it's unreasonable. And this person, what does this person have to do with the deceased Yang Jie, why did he kill someone, no matter from age or some external conditions that seem to be at present, this person seems to have nothing to do with Yang Jie. There's nothing to connect two people together.
"Why did you kill people?" Although this person said this sentence was really suspicious, Xiao Zheng did not express any opinion on Zheng Gong's words, but asked a very simple question, motive.
Generally speaking, this question is actually very easy to answer, whether it is a murder, there has to be a reason. What's more, this is Zheng Gong's own surrender, so there is no need to hide the motive, even dare to admit to killing, what else dare not say. But it's strange that it's strange that Xiao Zheng is asking such a simple question, but this Zheng Gong still can't answer it a little hesitantly.
