25. Chief Inspector Ten Jade
"Because I don't like this newborn brother too much, I'm jealous to death, so I don't come."
This kind of reason that is mostly the truth is not said by Banqing, Nangong knows that it must not be taken out as a perfunctory material, on the contrary, this is a secret that should rot in the stomach. But putting this reason aside, it wasn't until he came to the annex where Banqing's mother lived, that Nangong also got the reason of "perfunctory with busy work".
Although it was just Nangong's personal idea, he didn't think that Banqing was despised by her parents, judging from the name of Banqing's mother, that is, the uncle's wife, Yunqing, it was obvious that Banqing must be very important to her parents. What's more, if it weren't for the importance and trust of his daughter, he wouldn't be so relieved to recognize Banqing as the inspector general of the east. As for the elation of Uncle Banyun when his son was born, this can't be refuted, but after all, this is human nature, and Uncle Banyun must have been so happy when Banqing was born.
However, no matter how many nice things are said, it is a foregone conclusion that Banqing will not come to participate in the full moon wine. The only thing I can do now is to maintain Banqing's image as much as possible. But speaking of maintenance, in so many ...... In the case of monsters and people, it's a little difficult.
Qianmian has always told him to keep a low profile before, but this time, although he has tried his best, most of them still can't perfectly complete Qianmian's instructions. Because in the annex where Banqing's mother, Aunt Yunqing, was recuperating physically and mentally, there were already a number of monsters gathered at this time, although most of them were known to Nangong, but this time it would definitely attract attention.
But these youkai should have the same idea as themselves, judging from the large and small objects they hold or carry, it is obvious that their purpose is exactly the same as their own - to give away the gift in advance. It doesn't matter if it's for low-key or for fear of trouble.
Among them, the first thing Nangong saw at first sight was something that could not be ignored no matter what, the eldest princess Yingjiao, who had just met not long ago, was quietly sipping tea at this time, and her elegant and majestic demeanor even had some anti-guest meaning. After seeing Nangong and his party, Ying Xuan just nodded silently to Qiwei, and once again returned to her state of not being approached.
Ah Gu is still the same big grin as before, although Nangong doesn't know where she got the lollipop from, but seeing that this chief is licking so intently, it shouldn't make a big mess. The items that were supposed to be large jars have been replaced with small jars, and it seems that Ah Gu really crushed those insects into powder, although even so, Nangong is not sure if the tea brewed can really make Uncle Banyun drink it.
These two chiefs are undoubtedly the most conspicuous existences, and in addition, Nangong has also seen many familiar faces.
The first thing to bear the brunt is Kwai Lei, the reason why she noticed it is because of her identity, Nangong really didn't expect that Kwai Lei, who was desperately making money all day long, would be willing to spend money to buy gifts. The second word is probably Kwai Lei's gaze, although it is not towards herself but Bermuda on the side, but the undisguised anger still makes Nangong feel uneasy.
I'm afraid that Kwai Lei and Bermuda have some kind of holiday, although Bermuda doesn't seem to take it seriously at all.
Then there was the foreign Inspector General Filily, who had come from afar, and she was standing straight and motionless in a textbook position, and she obviously didn't realize that she didn't need to be too rigorous at this time. Obviously, the purpose of her early arrival was also to keep a low profile, but considering Filily's status, there was nothing wrong with this behavior at all.
Later, Nangong noticed a monster who was sitting on a chair, but very indecently crossed Erlang's legs, and from Nangong's positive angle, it was obvious that he could vaguely see something that should not be seen. It looks like a teenage girl's youkai, and her hair is messy as if it has static electricity, but the most conspicuous place is the one behind her......
A monkey's tail?
A monster who has no impression at all, but since she can appear here, at least it has already explained the special nature of her identity, after all, this is not a place where you can come if you want to, even Nangong is explaining the intention of coming, and relying on the identity of the Seven Tails and Yuzuli to come to this annex far away from the main house.
Finally, it is also the most inconspicuous monster in Nangong's opinion, a little girl who doesn't look big, with black hair and black eyes, retains all the attributes that a Chinese person should have. And if it weren't for the fact that a small half of her cheeks were covered by something like glass, Nangong wouldn't even be able to react that she was a monster. In a nutshell, it is...... Ordinary to the point that it can't be more ordinary.
Of course, only Nangong thinks so. No, it should be said that it is the pot of the seven tails, obviously the next actions of the seven tails and the spirit mirror have made Nangong have no time to regret the deduction he just made.
"Lord Ten Jade."
After seeing this "ordinary" monster, the Seven Tails quickly began to bow their heads and salute with the spirit mirror, leaving Nangong alone in a daze.
"Hey...... Nangong?! ”
"Huh?"
Ten Jade ...... My lord? The monster that can make Big Sister Seven Tails say this, wouldn't it be ...... herself?
"No need, everybody's on vacation right now."
The girl named Shiyu embodies a completely different aura from Yingjiao, if Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is the majesty of the thousand-year-old accumulation, then this "Lord Shiyu" shows that it is obviously an old man who does not belong to the appearance of age.
"Everyone, take care of yourself, Bermuda, and pay attention."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Bermuda, who has always been a quirk, is obviously much more honest this time, "Do as you are told, Chief Sir." ”
"She's the chief inspector in charge of the four inspectors-general, so you should understand."
Taking advantage of the slightly warmer atmosphere around him, Nan Tail quietly leaned into Nangong's ear, although this was not something that could make Nangong quiet, "In other words, it is the apex of the management system, the highest superior of all supervision officers." ”
Hey...... Why is this person coming but there is no wind at all! Just now...... The stupid look I had just now was completely seen by the other party!
"Calm down, I haven't received such a notice either, it should be Lord Shiyu's temporary idea."
Nanao straightened the stray hair on the tail behind his waist, "Anyway, you have to pay attention to it in the future, and if you can, pick a time to apologize." ”
Apologize? I'm afraid that not only now, but also in the future.
Nangong looked at Shiyu apologetically, but the other party didn't notice him at all, no, it didn't seem to be aimed at one person, but her nature. Unlike Yingjiao's majesty, which makes people timid, Shiyu shows that he doesn't look like he cares about anyone at all.
In this case, how can there be a chance to apologize!
Just when Nangong was anxious because of the rude just now, Banyun's appearance from the back room once again made Nangong's heart rise to his throat. Now that the head of the family has arrived, it means that it is now the time.
Although everyone's gifts are boxes, ......
"Thanks to everyone's kindness, the insider has just woken up."
Although Uncle Banyun still had an indelible smile on his face, it seemed that because of the relationship between the guests he saw first this time, he was still very restrained.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting, but if you're interested, why don't you go and meet the dog?"
