Chapter 27: The Mystery of the Jade Pendant
At this moment, a flame suddenly appeared at the staircase of a building on the screen, and the small flame quickly expanded. In the blink of an eye, the entire first floor began to burn.
"This is" Mo Chen, who had been staring at the screen, suddenly exclaimed, only to see a tree in the surveillance video spontaneously combusting without fire. As the flames rose, a dark figure jumped out from behind the tree and fled with great speed.
"Quick, rewind the video." Mo Chen and Xue hurriedly rewind the video. Fixed at that moment, Mo Chen was stunned for a moment, "Is it actually it?" ”
"What? Do you know? "Xue Feng looked at Mo Chen with a strange expression!" Belch! I just met once, and I didn't care about it at the time" Mo Chen was very embarrassed.
All right! Let's see who the arson suspect is on the screen? It's actually a dog? And it's a wolfdog!
"This?" Mo Chen was stunned. "Is there such an anomaly among the wolfdogs?"
Xue Feng lowered his head and quickly searched in his mind, "According to the records in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas (Zhongshan Sutra)", there is a strange beast named Duoji. Shaped like a wolf dog in the West, with a red mouth, red eyes and a white tail, there is a fire in the place as soon as it appears. ”
Hearing Xue Feng's words, Mo Chen immediately compared the description he said with the wolf dog on the surveillance video, and then recalled the dog he saw that day, and found that there was almost no difference between the two.
"That's right! It must be it - the real arsonist! Mo Chen said, standing up excitedly.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Now I don't know where the wolfdog went. What's more, City A is so big, and looking for a wolf dog in the vast sea of dogs is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack! Xue Feng looked at Mo Chen angrily.
"What then? Is it possible to leave it at that? Mo Chen said hatefully.
"Of course not! But it's a waste of energy to look for it now, so it's better to wait for it to appear. Someday we will wait for the best time! Xue Feng patted Mo Chen's shoulder and said with a smile.
After getting the most important information, Mo Chen and Xue Feng turned back to school. As soon as Mo Chen, who hadn't come to school for a few days, returned to class, many people looked at him in unison.
This made Mo Chen, who has always been low-key, a little embarrassed, but fortunately, everyone only glanced at it. For a poor student like Mo Chen, almost everyone is afraid to avoid it.
When he came to his seat, Xia Qi lowered his head and read without saying a word. Seeing this, Mo Chen also pretended to read the book, and the two spent a morning reading class without saying a word.
After class, Mo Chen went straight to the toilet. Xia Qi secretly took out something from his schoolbag and put it in Mo Chen's drawer at this time.
Mo Chen came back from the toilet and unexpectedly found a bento box inside the table drawer. Take out the bento box and put a post-it note on the lid. It reads:
Mo Chen, I'm sorry! I'm so sorry that you got hurt because of me this time. But I have nothing to repay you, this is my own cake. You taste it, and I hope you can like it.
After reading this note, Mo Chen couldn't help but laugh softly. Do you look so stingy? But a little injury, how can you be so careful?
Mentally keenly feeling Xia Qi's hopeful gaze from the side, Mo Chen opened the lunch box, scooped up a piece with a small spoon and ate it.
I have to say that Xia Qi's cooking skills are really superb, and the cake is fluffy and slightly moist. The cream is sweet but not greasy, and with a few slices of dragon fruit embedded in it, the taste is really addictive.
"You? This cake" Xia Qi saw Mo Chen eating the cake and asked a little tentatively.
"Hmmm! It's delicious! Mo Chen nodded, and gave great affirmation to Xia Qi's craftsmanship.
"Then you forgive me?" Xia Qi looked at Mo Chen expectantly. "What? Forgive? How is that possible? Mo Chen frowned, looking very impatient.
"You, you go back on your word!" Xia Qi's mouth pursed, and tears suddenly filled his eyes.
"Huh! Don't cry! I'm not that I don't forgive you, I mean I don't blame you at all. Mo Chen couldn't see the girl crying, so he hurriedly comforted. He didn't expect such consequences for making a joke.
"Really?" Xia Qi wiped away his tears and asked suspiciously.
"Really! I don't lie to you! Mo Chen raised his hand, "I swear, I will never lie to you, if I lie to you, you will be a puppy." "Poof!" Hearing Mo Chen's words, Xia Qi was immediately amused. The awkward atmosphere between the two disintegrated in an instant.
At noon, Mo Chen sorted out all the strange things that had happened in the past two days. Among them, the memory of saving Xia Qi made Mo Chen the most profound, and the purple-gold light that shot out of his eyebrows, the purple-gold light turned into a cone-shaped object.
Mo Chen has never understood what these are? From the gold at the beginning to the purple gold now. Does it still have something to do with that jade pendant?
Mo Chen thought like this, and as soon as his mind moved, his mind came to the golden ocean. However, as Mo Chen expected, the golden sea really turned purple gold.
What the hell is going on here? Mo Chen is now like a hungry man who has got a piece of fat but doesn't know how to cook it, as if he has grabbed some heavy treasure in his hand but doesn't know how to use it!
Mo Chen sighed and withdrew to the cultivation space.
Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it's time for the evening self-study to end. Mo Chen lowered his head and hurried home, and bumped into a person in front of him. "I'm sorry!" Mo Chen apologized and prepared to bypass.
"Boy! Do you still want to run? I don't know, brother, I'm here to spend money? "The person who was hit grabbed Mo Chen." Money? Excuse me! No. Mo Chen could barely see by the moonlight that there were three strong men standing behind him.
Glimpsing this kind of lineup, Mo Chen was really scared in his heart.
After all, he is just an ordinary student, and if he uses his special ability, the other party will definitely know. If you kill people in order not to lose your secrets, it will also involve a lot of unnecessary trouble, such as investigations from the police, etc.
Before Mo Chen could come up with a foolproof plan in his heart, the other party had already rushed to it. Mo Chen had no choice but to cover the surface of his body with a layer of ice in an attempt to reduce the pain, but it was useless.
Just when Mo Chen was in unspeakable pain, the jade pendant on his chest emitted a burst of blue-black light, turning into a piece of clothing and wearing it close to Mo Chen's body. Mo Chen suddenly felt that the pain had decreased a lot, so Mo Chen hurriedly shouted for help.
The four strong men on the other side saw that Mo Chen was not only dishonest, but also shouted for help. The beating was immediately stopped. After groping around with him for a while, he found that Mo Chen really had no money, so he turned around and ran away.
Mo Chen stood up with difficulty and touched the jade pendant on his chest. Walking slowly towards home, when he got home, Mo Chen simply cleaned up the wound, and then came to the room, looking at the jade pendant, Mo Chen wanted to find out what the mystery was.
Suddenly, a huge suction force came from the jade pendant. Mo Chen only felt that the soul of the whole person seemed to be separated from **
