9. Brainless blowing
In order to prevent Elizabeth from having any unnecessary associations and misunderstandings when she saw the combination of Spirit Mirror and Aoi Lei, and of course, in order to find clues as soon as possible to catch or drive away the weapon hunt that would most of the bad things, before dawn, Spirit Mirror and Aoi Lei were most likely already set off.
However, compared to them, who only need to concentrate on catching monsters, Nangong's task is unexpectedly heavy. In a sense, as long as you walk with women, whether you go shopping or not, it will unexpectedly make men feel tired.
"Ahem, that kid, it doesn't matter if you bring it."
Not long after Nangong followed Elizabeth to visit, Elizabeth coughed lightly twice, "It doesn't seem appropriate to let a child be home alone." ”
"Ah, do you mean Qiqi?"
Nangong looked at Elizabeth's flushed face, "It should be fine, as long as you don't run around." ”
After staying at Nangong's house for a few days, Qiqi seemed to have completely forgotten her relatives, never mentioning things like going home, and all she did every day was to change her way to stick to Xijing. But putting this aside, Qiqi is still a very sensible child, at least this time she honestly agreed to Nangong's request to stay at home alone and not go out.
But Elizabeth was unexpectedly shy, obviously Qiqi just flew over like a cat that saw a fish and rubbed her legs with her face. Although this kind of action, Nangong has only seen Qiqi use it against Xixun.
"Ahem, since you say that, I have no problem." It seems that because of the relationship between the water and the soil, Elizabeth's face does not look so good, "Today our goal has been set, for youkai, the easiest place to gather should be a representative place, of course, this also means that it is easy to riot." So that's where we're targeting. ”
"A representative place?"
It seems that there really aren't any landmarks in this area, and the youkai seem to be confined to the street where Senmian is.
But arguing Elizabeth's words here may have left a bad impression on her.
"There's nothing wrong with going, but can you narrow it down a bit?"
"Well, then it's decided, how about the exhibition hall?"
"Poof!"
It must have been a coincidence! Why do you say that you want to go to a place where the theft happened before?
"Well, can you change the location?"
While regretting the space left for Elizabeth, Nangong said, "It's being repaired there...... Well, so can't get in yet. ”
"I see, how about a commercial street?"
Elizabeth nodded, "If it's the kind of place with a lot of people......"
"Wait, wait...... Not there. ”
After two consecutive hairs, Elizabeth's second choice is still a place that Nangong must not take her to. Because that's where Spirit Mirror and Aoi Lei searched today, and there are countless products, and it's one of the places that Akiri is likely to visit.
"There...... Well, there ......"
Oh no, she couldn't think of what reason to stop her this time.
"It seems that there is something hidden, so it needs to be investigated."
Nangong's hesitant appearance obviously made Elizabeth suspicious, "But don't worry, I will describe everything I have seen truthfully, and I will definitely not add fuel to it." ”
That's why it's even more troublesome! If Elizabeth had seen the Spirit Mirror and Kwai Lei there, she would have been interrogated. If you accidentally find out about the capture of the weapon hunter because of this, then the plan to drag Elizabeth and catch or drive away the weapon hunt will be completely ruined.
However, Elizabeth no longer looked like she could use persuasion to make her change her mind, so she had to hope that the flow of people on the street would completely make Elizabeth unable to find their shadows.
Along the way, Elizabeth has earned the attention of too many passers-by, but she doesn't seem to be too acceptable herself. It didn't take long for her, who was still holding her head up at the beginning, to quietly follow behind Nangong.
Speaking of which, this look is obviously shy because of being noticed, but the way it is holding on is really cute. But...... In a sense, Elizabeth also belongs to the category of "enemies".
"Wow, what, why did it stop?"
Elizabeth touched her head and looked around blankly.
"It's here, just ahead."
Nangong Shun pointed his finger, but he was more observing whether there were spirit mirrors and sunflower lei around him. Sure enough, after today, I have to let Lingjing learn to use a mobile phone, or get Kwai Lei's mobile phone number. If I could contact them with information, I wouldn't be so scared to even take a step now.
"What's wrong?"
"Ahh It's fine, it just feels a little too bustling. ”
Elizabeth hurriedly shook her head, as if trying to shake the distractions out. This kind of strange realization, Nangong has only seen it on the body of the spirit mirror.
It seems that because of the lack of knowledge about some of the culture and knowledge that must be clearly followed by the trend due to long-term dealing with youkai, the spirit mirror looks like a girl who has traveled back in time from ancient times. It's okay to say that you don't understand computers and other devices, but it's a bit of a stretch to say that you can't even use basic communication methods such as mobile phones.
And now Elizabeth's performance seems to be similar to that of the spirit mirror.
"It's not that bustling."
Nangong took Elizabeth to shuttle around the crowded places, while keeping an eye on the crowd around her, "It's just a very ordinary place, formed because of human needs." ”
"I see, I don't really have much contact with this kind of place, and if anything, it's just because of the mission."
It seems that Elizabeth is more honest than the spirit mirror, maybe this is just because the mind of the machine spirit is relatively simple?
"While I am an Ombudsman, I am still a machine spirit. And in the 'Inquisition' where we manage the monsters, I'm just an ordinary weapon, and I have many stronger companions than me. More often than not, I am used by my master in the form of a weapon than I am on my own mission. ”
"You still have a master?"
"That's for sure."
Elizabeth looked at the Xixun knife that Nangong was holding, as if mocking him for asking such an idiot question, "I was only promoted to the rank of Inspector because of my master's status as an Inspector." My master is an absolute genius and has become the Inspector General as the youngest person in history. ”
The machine spirits are all protectors, and now Nangong understands the meaning of this sentence a little. At least along the way, Elizabeth, who opened the chatterbox, raised the "master" in her mouth all the time, and even some issues that could not be said at all, such as the appearance and age of her master, were accidentally leaked by her.
"That's it! My master can be said to be the only one of its kind in this world, understand? ”
"Mm-hmm, very clear."
Nangong nodded a little perfunctorily, although it was indeed a bit boring to listen to Elizabeth's cookie-cutter speech, but the main reason for Nangong's distraction was a figure in the crowd not far ahead.
Judging by Nangong's experience, this is not too skillful, it is suspicious. It was obviously a short man in a cloak, but the passers-by around him didn't notice it at all. However, this phenomenon called "Shen Yin" can basically determine the identity of the short "youkai".
In my memory, it was the first time I had seen such an embarrassed youkai, and it looked like it was injured.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, a little thing."
Nangong said as he tried to walk carefully towards the monster with his back to him in the distance.
Aoi Lei said before that Akiri came here because he stole a treasure somewhere else and was hunted down, so it's not strange to dress a little embarrassed. Previously, according to the description of the spirit mirror, the hunt was a short man. Both of these points are consistent with the youkai not far away.
And, here the location. Shops with a wide variety of products will inevitably attract kigaku, and the crowds make it much easier to escape. It can be said that this is the easiest place to haunt the hunt, and now, there is such a suspicious youkai in front of you.
Since you see it, you don't let it go, and if you catch it in front of Elizabeth, the other party's evaluation of the inspector here will also rise greatly.
"I'd like to ask about the identity of the 'youkai' in front of me. Can you help me with an inventory? ”
