7. Your Excellency the Ombudsman who arrived early
"No, I can't find anything."
Nangong's home has been redefined as a stronghold, and after turning over all the "clues" that he was fortunate to have obtained several times, Kwai Lei, who is "experienced and efficient in investigation" in the mouth of Rao is Lingjing, is also a little impatient at this time.
"Ahh No, I can't do this job, I'll pay you back double the deposit. ”
"Now, if you leave, I'll spread this among the youkai."
Just when Kwai Lei stood up and dragged her suitcase and was about to leave, Ling Jing's words suddenly made Kwai Lei completely "calm" from top to bottom.
"Among the monsters, the bounty monster 'Aoi Lei', who has a good reputation, can't complete the commission because of his lack of ability, so he plans to pay the deposit in advance and leave."
Lingjing snorted coldly, and stared at Kwai Lei, whose whole body was stiffened, with a smile that was completely inconsistent with her temperament, "Once this kind of news spreads all over the monster world, Kwai Lei, you will have to drink the northwest wind." ”
"Goo-goo...... Spirit Mirror! Kwai Lei's embarrassed appearance almost made Nangong laugh, but the threat of the spirit mirror was indeed too damaging for Kwai Lei, and soon the bounty monster who was just about to slip away sat down again and stared at the photos scattered on the table in a daze.
"You should know how difficult it is to catch a trap, for me, to catch her at least have time for me to lay out the line, of course this is no different from buying a lottery ticket and winning the first prize."
Perhaps finally sobering up from her professional habits, Aoi Lei didn't seem to be motivated at all, "To tell you the truth, the trade fair that opened not long ago, Kikari went to patronize it as promised, and took advantage of the chaos to steal the most valuable treasure." At that time, there were too many powerful monsters present, but they were all thrown off by her without exception, and it was precisely because of this incident that Hunting came to this area. Honestly, it's unlikely that we'll catch her alone. ”
"It's just unlikely, not absolutely."
Fortunately, the evidence he found didn't seem to have much effect, and soon Lingjing crumpled the photo into a ball and threw it in the trash as if he was deliberately trying to forget this first failure, "I'm a little ashamed to say this, but the area that the teacher is responsible for is indeed the least strictly managed area in the neighborhood." Although most of this is due to the teacher's reluctance to manage it himself, it also shows that my ability is insufficient. However, this situation is our greatest opportunity. ”
"At least the Hunting Fellow stays here, right?"
Nangong cautiously picked up the words, but he only planned to say it after he roughly understood the meaning of Lingjing's words.
For Nangong, before he met the spirit mirror and became an inspector, his interest has always been to look for the so-called "monsters", supernatural phenomena, etc., since he wants to look for it, he will inevitably have to look for visits in all corners of the city. It is precisely for this reason that Nangong knows very well that this area will definitely attract the attention of the weapon hunter.
A monster who loves to steal and snatch treasures, if she happens to encounter a region where the management is not very strict and there are many hidden "treasures", even if she is driven away, I'm afraid she will continue to rely here.
"In other words, it is estimated that the hunt will not run away immediately after stealing the museum, and most of them plan to plan the next theft."
"Well, that's it, it doesn't seem like I'm thinking alone."
Lingjing nodded with satisfaction, "Although after I found out, most of the weapons will be more careful, but as long as the fox is outside, her tail will definitely be exposed." As for the hook used. The 'fried tofu' that leads this 'fox' to show its tail is a treasure. So Nangong, this matter needs to rely on your help. ”
"Huh? I? ”
Nangong pointed at himself, although his family background was quite solid, and his parents, who were nowhere to be found every month, would also make a sum of money that could not be spent in a month, but Nangong really couldn't think of any place where he would attract a weapon hunt.
"I'm not a baby."
"Of course you're not, but isn't that woman?"
That one...... Woman? Yes! Could it be that it is Xijing?
"Although I don't want to elevate that woman too much, but she is also a demon knife with a history, if this kind of treasure is found by the weapon hunter, in my opinion, the weapon hunt will want to get it anyway."
In other words, use Xijing as bait?
"No, I refuse this."
Without thinking too much, Nangong immediately refused.
Although Xixing should be able to obey his orders unconditionally, this kind of thing is diametrically opposed to what he thought when he rescued Xixing.
Moreover, although they haven't been together for a long time, Xixing should be regarded as a "monster" that only belongs to him, so how can he casually push her into a dangerous situation?
"I knew you would say that."
Lingjing sighed, "Don't giggle, you look a little obscene now." ”
"Haha! I get the idea! Different from the more "euphemistic" spirit mirror, Kwai Lei patted Nangong's shoulder heroically, "Nangong, this is youth!" While you're young, hurry up and do something that you'll regret if you don't do it! ”
Hey, stop filming, you're going to laugh even more obscenely.
"It's useless, it's still possible to have children when humans and demons are combined, but I've never heard of a successful combination of humans and machine spirits." Lingjing said seriously, this is not in line with the identity of a girl at all. At this time, even Nangong didn't know if she did it on purpose or if she really didn't know.
"Roar! You see, you don't have to buy insurance now! Kwai Lei came to Nangong's side like a forty-year-old single middle-aged uncle, "Hurry up, hurry up, I can be responsible for taking away the little ghost who is pestering Xijing, free?" ”
It's not a free question, is it?
"Your call, your call, hurry up and answer ......"
Fortunately, such an embarrassing scene didn't last long, and the mobile phone that Aoi Lei put on the table buzzed.
"Hello! This is Aoi Lei, if you have any commission you would like to give me...... What, it turned out to be a stinky fox. ”
Kwai Lei's face immediately stinked after learning that the other party was a thousand faces, and after muttering a few times, she handed the phone into the hand of the spirit mirror.
"Your teacher is looking for you, and it seems that there is something urgent."
"Yes, teacher. What the! ”
It didn't take long for the phone to turn out, and Lingjing, who seemed to have learned something terrible, almost threw out the mobile phone he was holding in both hands.
"I understand, goodbye then."
Judging from the expression of the spirit mirror, something must have happened, and it doesn't look like a good thing.
"Something is going on." Ling Jing hurriedly said, "The foreign inspector who was originally planned to come soon has already arrived here in advance, and most of the words are already waiting at the airport to greet him. ”
The Inspector of the Foreign Country, as mentioned by Lingjing before, although her purpose is only to come here to exchange culture and visit, but in any case, everything that happens here will be directly linked to her evaluation of this area, that is, the area under the jurisdiction of a thousand faces.
And now, she had just stolen a lot from the weapon hunt, and came in advance before she was caught. If she knew that there was a treasure stealing monster running rampant here......
"Plans have changed for the time being."
Lingjing thought for a while and said, "Nangong, next time you don't have to go with us to capture the weapon hunt, at least you won't have much effect on it." Your words have a new mission, and you're in charge of receiving and accompanying the Inspector from a foreign country during the time when Aoi Lei and I go hunting or driving away the weapon. It's said to be an accompaniment, but I think you should also know that the most important thing is to let her not be aware of the existence of the hunt! ”
