Chapter 22: Night Talk
At night, Mo sat in his holiday chair, holding a pot of freshly brewed tea and pouring himself a drink, while listening to the so-called 'intelligence' reports from his attendants.
"The above is the new and complete information provided by the barnyard family." After telling all the information, the man lowered his head and waited for Mo's orders.
Mo drank the last sip of hot tea in the cup and chuckled: "Hehe, this information is much more 'reasonable' and complete than the previous one." Do they make the story better, or is that really the case......"
Then he turned his gaze to the man who was half-kneeling on the ground: "Crow, which side do you think it is?" ”
"Your subordinates are blunt, you can't tell the difference, it's all up to you!"
"It's such a boring set of arguments again. Raven, you've been with me for so many years, you should know me. Say it, what you think about it. ”
The man's head was lowered, "Yes, my subordinates privately think that this matter is full of suspicions." If the barnyard family could have given the present information from the beginning, then there would be no need to say more. But now their inconsistent reactions seem to have temporarily filled in the loopholes in their previous statements, which makes people suspicious. ”
After a pause, the man gritted his teeth and continued: "My subordinates think that this matter should be considered in the long run, lest we unknowingly become spears in the hands of others. ”
"Hehe......" Mo smiled, neither agreeing nor objecting, but changed the topic and asked, "When the head of the barnyard field family contacted you today, did he test you when I plan to do it?" ”
The man thought for a moment, and then said affirmatively: "Yes, the head of the barnyard field did hint at this to his subordinates when he handed over information to me today. ”
Finally, I invited a 'strong' help, and I hope that the other party can act as soon as possible. But if it seems so urgent, it will lose the demeanor of a great family head.
Mo stood up, pushed open the window, and looked out the window at the almost perfect silver moon. Well, it seems that the last time to defeat youkai is a full moon night......
Waving his sleeves, Mo ordered plainly: "Then you go and tell the head of the barnyard field, I have decided to do it tomorrow to get rid of the evil 'monster' for him." ”
"Your Highness!?" The man looked up in surprise. Since the other party is so suspicious, why not be cautious. Although he has enough confidence in the strength of his own highness, no matter who the enemy is, or what the barnyard family has planned, it is just a joke in the face of absolute strength.
But if you just follow the other party's ideas, if you are used as a gunman, it will also be a shame-saving thing.
"Why, isn't that weird?"
The man quickly lowered his head, "No, since Your Highness has decided so, it naturally has your deep meaning. The subordinates went to meet the head of the barnyard family. ”
Looking at the man in front of him who could only talk to himself, Mo shook his head boringly, after getting along for so many years, the other party still has this temper. I really don't know if to say that he is cautious, or if he has a blind trust in Mo, or both.
After thinking about it, Mo added: "Well, since the newspaper said that the 'monster' revealed its 'true body' under the light of the full moon." Then I'll set the time for tomorrow night, just in time, it's a full moon night. ”
"Yes." The man replied in a low voice, then bowed out of the room.
Mo picked up the empty teapot and poured water again to heat it. Tomorrow night...... No matter how secretive or calculating, everything will naturally be known tomorrow night.
……
"Teacher Huiyin, do you have to drink this?" Looking at the brown and yellow medicinal soup that exuded a strong strange smell in front of him, Ah Li made a bitter face and looked at Huiyin pitifully.
"Well, this is a medicinal soup that will cooperate with you to recuperate your injuries and reduce fever. Although the taste may be a little worse, as long as you drink this and rest for another night, it will be fine. Rest assured, it won't be hard to drink. Huiyin held the decoction in her hand, coaxing Ah Li like a child. But looking at her firm and irresistible eyes, if Ali still refuses to drink it, she can't say that she will pour this medicine even if she is hard at the next moment.
Of course, Ah Li is not the kind of child who doesn't know what to do, so he can only take the medicinal soup with a bitter face, then close his eyes, as if resigned to his fate, and pour a big mouthful. With that heroic appearance, people who don't know still think that she is going to the battlefield in person.
Wow, it's so bad...... Although he had expected it, Ah Li's face still wrinkled together in the next moment. With a long mouth, he silently let out a painful 'wail'. Although I have been weak since I was a child, I can hardly leave my mouth, but it is the first time that it is so unpleasant......
Huiyin stuffed a sweet fruit into it at the right time. The fruit in her mouth melted in her mouth at once, and the rich sweetness of the unknown fruit finally diluted the indescribable bitterness.
Just after Ah Li eased up a little, Huiyin's next sentence pulled her into the hell of suffering: "There is still half a bowl, you have to drink it all to be effective, come ......"
Ah Li's whole face turned white, and he looked at the bowl of brown and yellow medicinal soup that was basically not missing, and then at Huiyin's determined face. In the end, with a sad face, I continued to close my eyes, and died......
As the so-called death is used to death, and finally drank a whole bowl of medicinal soup, Ah Li only felt that he was about to collapse, and his delicate little face looked loveless. The whole body was lying on the bed in a very indecent posture.
Huiyin looked at Ali's appearance and shook her head a little funny. Then I put away the dishes and chopsticks and prepared to go out.
Seeing that Huiyin's figure was about to walk out of the door, as if remembering something, Ali hurriedly sat up and shouted, "Wait, Teacher Huiyin." ”
"Well, what's wrong?" Hui Yin turned around and asked strangely, "If you still feel bitter, then I'll bring you some more fruit?" ”
Ali's face immediately showed a look of surprise: "Really?!" Oh, no, it's not this. Ahem...... Teacher Huiyin, can you come and discuss with me later, I think we need to exchange information, about the ...... of that 'monster'?"
Huiyin's eyes flickered twice, looking at the other party who rarely showed such a determined look in front of her, and nodded, "Yes, it just so happens that I have some clue about my investigation for so many days, and I will talk to you later." ”
"Also...... And, if you can, that...... Fruit ......," Ali added in a whisper with a blushing face.
At this moment, Huiyin finally couldn't help but chuckle, "Hehe, good! No problem! Wait a minute. ”
…… To be continued......
