Chapter 039: Make a Wish on the Moon
Without waiting for Zhongli Baiyi to answer, or the question itself was not expecting someone else's answer, Shangguan Haohui looked up at the bright moon hanging in the sky, as if he saw someone's face, and muttered to himself in a whisper that others couldn't hear, "Will I give up all this for you one day and become the one who died in your hands?" At that time, will you have a place for me in your heart? And will I not regret it? ”
"Haohui!" Zhongli Baiyi bit his lower lip uneasily at Shangguan Haohui's state at this time, and was interrupted when he wanted to say something.
"I'm just talking." Shangguan Haohui tilted his head slightly, revealing a smile of unknown meaning.
Zhongli Baiyi swallowed what he wanted to say, the side of his face made him only see the height of the corners of his mouth, but that smile made him feel a strange sadness in the moonlight.
Since Shentai Mingxue became the target of the Shangguan family's surveillance, Shangguan Haohui's mental state has become more and more deviant, and he really hopes that this public case will be closed quickly.
"That, it's the Double Ninth Festival soon, has Haohui's task been arranged?" Zhongli Baiyi hurriedly changed the topic.
"Well, the northeast area of the third high school is my defense range." Shangguan Haohui narrowed his eyes slightly, and his momentum suddenly stood up.
Every year, the Double Ninth Festival is the focus of the third district, because the third district is located in the plain and has no mountains to rely on, and it may face the invasion of strange beasts on all sides. Because of the low tide of magic, the magic power of the magician is weakened, and there will be loopholes in the defense of the energy shield of the city wall alone, and even a comprehensive blockade will not be able to avoid the incident of alien beasts hurting people.
"I hope it's safe this year." Zhongli Baiyi remembered the past attacks and made a heartfelt wish.
Three years ago, the Empire had waged a regional war of tentative attacks on the Federation. The third district was one of the important invasion points, although the victory was won in the end, but the war caused the energy of the city wall energy shield to be insufficient, and the Double Ninth Festival that year was extremely difficult, and finally Shangguan Haohui was also bitten with blood for blocking the mouth of the beast.
When the two of them stepped into the mansion of the Shangguan family, they were told by the servant, and walked to Shangguan Fengye's study with a little apprehension.
"Father, here we are." Shangguan Haohui said goodbye, and after hearing the permission from inside, he stepped into the study.
"Shangguan Haohui, Zhongli Baiyi, now issue an official order from the military of the Third District to monitor the whole process of the Shenxue during the school day of the Double Ninth Festival." Shangguan Fengye stood up and gave a serious and powerful order.
Shangguan Haohui's eyes widened in shock, and then he reacted and stood up straight, beat his chest lightly and responded: "Yes!" ”
Shangguan Fengye looked down at the map of the third district with various logos on the table, and the smell of blood seemed to be strong everywhere his fingers slid over. Let me try, where are you sacred!
Shangguan Haohui lowered his eyes and thought silently, then raised his head and looked at his father, "If there is a problem in the defense area, will it be the priority of monitoring or the elimination of danger?" ”
"Priority surveillance." Shangguan Fengye picked up the information terminal and looked at the security area above, he arranged heavy troops in the northeast direction, it was impossible to give up the safety of the citizens because of temptation, and in the same way, such heavy troops also had a reason to guard against the snow in the Taipei.
"To put it simply, the area you're responsible for is only the third high school." Shangguan Fengye banged on the table and tried to peek into his son's thoughts.
"Yes!" Shangguan Haohui looked at Shangguan Fengye and turned to leave after finding that there were no other arrangements.
Zhongli Baiyi bowed and said goodbye, and followed Shangguan Haohui out of the study.
In the living room of Shangguan's house, he chatted with Shangguan Yaqi for a while, sensitively feeling Shangguan Haohui's mental exhaustion and not wanting to talk alone, Zhongli Baiyi left Shangguan's house first, and after returning to Zhongli's house, he waited quietly in the study for his father's return.
After Zhong Liquan opened the door of the study, he was not surprised by the son inside.
"Long story short." Zhong Liquan sat down and looked directly at his son.
"The possibility that something is wrong with the snow in the platform?"
"Eighty percent."
So high? Zhongli Baiyi looked up in surprise, he thought she was just being suspected, but now this was the target at all.
"Farewell." Zhongli Baiyi stood up and prepared to leave.
"If it really proves that there is a problem with the Shenxue of the Tai Dynasty, do you think Shangguan Haohui will take action?" Zhong Liquan looked at his son's back and suddenly wanted to know his opinion.
Just as he grew up with Shangguan Fengye, he was very clear about Lord Shangguan's thoughts, and it had only been a month, and the existence of Shentai Mingxue itself had already had an impact on Shangguan Haohui.
Zhong Liquan narrowed his eyes slightly, Lord Shangguan could be called a child control to a certain extent, so after making a judgment, he thought that confirming the danger level of the Shenxue was the highest priority, even if it would cause a certain loss in the third district.
The question was whether Shangguan Haohui would have a fluctuation of thoughts in this, and he stared at Zhongli Baiyi, trying to peek a thing or two from him.
"Yes." Zhongli Baiyi gave an answer without hesitation, did not hear the meaning of the next conversation, pressed the hand holding the doorknob, and walked out of the study.
Of course, Shangguan Haohui will make a move, even if he doesn't want to. Because the sense of responsibility for the third district weighed on him like a mountain, even if there were tears in his heart, no, even if it was bloodshed, he would do it with a blank face.
Zhongli Baiyi stopped and looked at the moon in the sky, his face unable to hide the worry in his heart. He believed Shangguan Haohui's words, and he didn't have the kind of feelings he had for Shentai Mingxue, but this was even more terrifying. Because love may fade quickly and fade with time. But spiritual dependence and trust are not necessarily, and in this regard, he is the most vocal.
Lying on the bed and looking out the window at the night sky, "Dave, are you sure there is a way to get rid of suspicion?" ”
"Of course." Dave said with an affirmative voice, and then asked with a little confusion, "What's wrong, master?" ”
"The watchmen have withdrawn."
Dave lowered his head and pondered, "Does this mean that the other party is going to act?" ”
"yes." Yutai Mingxue arched between the pillows with a headache, and now the problem is that he can't grasp the point, what does the other party suspect?
If you don't know this, random actions will only expose you more!
Suspect that the Tai family has taken action? Suspect she's the woman who showed up in the park? If you suspect that she is the woman, then it is easy to guess that she is the Bloodthirster, because the Tantai family is one of the families in the first district that can sweep away all clues.
What if the identity of the Blood Eater is revealed? Is she going to be like him, losing her freedom and becoming a pawn?
Shentai's face turned pale, no, she never wanted that.
"Master?"
