Chapter 218: Meeting
Song Qing looked at the time, the hour hand pointed to ten o'clock, and she was already late.
Last night, because she had just come out of the trial ground, her body was transformed by disordered energy, coupled with the effects of a large consumption of mental power, which caused her to pass out when she returned home.
After waking up, there was a delay in redeeming the 'person' word order and checking your physical condition, and even if you go out at this time, you may not be able to catch up.
But there is a dangerous and abnormal mutant silver wolf at home, she can't leave Tang Yun at home who is hangover and hasn't woken up, and if she is alone with the wolf, she has to take Tang Yun out before going to work.
She was bound to be late, so she decided to call first.
Since her job in the Guard Department has stabilized, the family's arrears have been restored, and she has dialed the phone number of the Guard Chief's Office.
But the phone rang several times, but no one answered.
This made Song Qingxiao feel a little surprised, although she had not been in the guard hall for a long time, she probably figured out the character of Captain Yi'an.
This person has a bad temper, but he is extremely self-disciplined, has a serious personality, and dislikes the fouls of his guards the most.
During the time when she had just entered the guard system, because Captain An didn't like her very much, she kept this in her heart.
Although this person is strict with others, he is also strict with himself, and at this time, he should have arrived at the office.
But at this time, the phone was not answered, and he was either late or had an emergency and was called out.
Song Qingxiao narrowed her eyes, a trace of solemnity flashed in her eyes, she remembered the two men who chased her last night and died in the alley, where Captain An happened to be in charge of the security hall, I am afraid that someone who got up early found out about this case and reported it.
The people in the guard hall should be dealing with this matter at this time.
Thinking of this, Song Qing hung up the phone and decided to go to the security hall to inquire first.
Tang Yun needs to settle down, she doesn't have many friends, because of her background in school, she is introverted and withdrawn, she has almost no close friends, and the one she deals with the most is probably the one who wants to be in debt.
She thought about it for a while, and decided to take Tang Yun out, and after selling the long whip, find a sanatorium and send her in for the time being.
In this way, it is possible that her late arrival and her behavior of going out with her mother will cause dissatisfaction among Captain An and others, and then affect her work.
But at present, she has a lot of troubles, and more attention is actually focused on improving her strength and saving her life in the trial.
After making up his mind to sell whips, this job is actually dispensable for Song Qingxiao, just a cover for his identity.
Number Five had said that he would buy a long whip at a price she was comfortable with, and that if the whip was sold, it would relieve her of her current poverty, and that even if she lost her job, it would be insignificant to her.
What deserves her most attention is the corpses of the two men in the western suburbs.
Tang Yun was so drunk that she was unconscious, Song Qingxiao took good care of her, she was quite clean, but she was drunk all year round, which made her fingers curly and difficult to straighten, and her nails were black.
Because she has not seen the sun all year round, she has a sickly paleness, her body is a little swollen, and her whole person is like a swollen steamed bun, and her facial features are a little deformed.
In her sleep, she was also worried, as if she had a lot on her mind.
When Song Qingxiao took a handkerchief to wipe her face, she was stunned for a moment, her mother's appearance was both familiar and unfamiliar, as if she had seen her clearly for the first time, and as if she had always been like this since she could remember.
Tang Yun slowly opened his eyes, his gaze was a little cloudy, and he hadn't found the focal length yet, the moment he saw Song Qingxiao, he instinctively took her hand and called out in a daze:
“……”
She was paralyzed by alcohol, her tongue was swollen, and her speech was not clear, Song Qing was stunned for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, she fell asleep with her eyes closed again, and the previous murmur seemed to be a babble made when she was confused.
Song Qingxiao didn't have time to think about her reaction at this time, and changed a simple dress for Tang Yun, she was already familiar with this kind of thing, when she did it before, she was still extremely hard, but at this time, for Song Qingxiao, Tang Yun's weight was naturally not worth mentioning.
She lifted Tang Yun on her back and specially locked it when she went out.
She didn't do this to prevent thieves, the Song family was surrounded by walls, and for Song Qingxiao, the most important dagger she carried with her, and it was impossible to hide it at home at will.
The point is that there is a silver wolf inside that is extremely dangerous and does not know when it will wake up.
This silver wolf is extremely fierce, and last night when he was dying, he also bit a master to death, even if this door is locked, it may not be able to stop it, Song Qingxiao is better than nothing.
The front of the guard hall was crowded with people, and to Song Qingxiao's surprise, most of the guards were at the door to maintain order.
There was a lot of noise at the door, and an angry crowd blocked the entrance and exit of the hall.
These people looked hideous, and shouted hoarsely:
"The guard department is a waste, and there have been deaths in the western suburbs for two days in a row......"
"The deaths are worse than the other, but the real murderer ...... not caught for a long time"
"People in the western suburbs are not people? Does the royal family take the lives of our poor people? ”
“……”
The guards on duty, armed with riot shields, stood in a line and intercepted the men.
The more the group of people who came to block the door of the guard hall talked, the more excited they became, and it was very likely that a riot would take place.
The situation was on the verge of erupting, and there were even reporters in the distance, fiddling with their cameras, intending to capture a big news.
When Song Qingxiao appeared with her mother on her back, someone in the guard hall saw her, a trace of contempt flashed in her eyes, and she looked away, pretending not to notice her predicament.
"Don't make any noise!"
A thunderous male voice suddenly sounded, several guards turned around, and the figure of Captain An appeared at the door of the guard hall, with a fierce expression and his eyes swept over the crowd.
He is shaped like an iron tower, and his muscles are tangled, so he is not easy to mess with at first glance.
The moment he appeared and shouted, the noisy people stopped for a moment.
"We are still investigating this matter and will report it to the government," his gaze fell on Song Qingxiao, and finally turned away: "When necessary, the head of parliament will ask the royal family to send someone to support." ”
When Captain An talked about investigating the matter and reporting it to the government, this group of people in the western suburbs was still very unconvinced, but when they heard him mention that the head of government would ask the royal family to send someone to support, everyone's faces showed surprise.
"Really?"
Today, the imperial power and political power have been separated, and the imperial family has gradually withdrawn from the political center.
But in the hearts of ordinary people, the royal family still has supreme authority, even with the development of the times, most people still have a strange trust in the royal family in their hearts.
The crowd was appeased, and the guards who had been tense couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, Song Qingxiao squeezed through the crowd that still refused to leave easily with her mother on her back, and the guards at the door held shields and refused to let them go easily, until Captain An glanced at her and said:
"Everybody's in the room."
A sturdy woman who was blocking the way snorted, half of the shield in front of her was removed, and there was a look of ill will in her eyes:
"This is not a shelter, any cat or dog can come in!"
She lowered her voice to speak, but it was still noisy outside, and no one other than the person next to her could hear her.
Captain An looked stunned, glanced at Song Qingxiao, turned around and prepared to leave.
Song Qingxiao's expression was as usual, as if she hadn't heard what she said, she carried her mother through this gap, but the woman suddenly stepped forward and bumped into her when she passed by her side.
A guard next to her seemed to know her intentions, and deliberately stood over to block Song Qingxiao's way, so that she could not avoid it.
This female guard is tall, nearly 1.8 meters tall, and very sturdy, working in the guard department in the western suburbs all the year round, and the people she deals with are extremely vicious lawless personnel, and her skills and strength are not inferior to men.
She originally thought that if she hit her, Song Qingxiao would definitely fall to the ground and be embarrassed.
Even she was ready to make Song Qingxiao make a fool of herself in public, laugh at her, and tell her to get out of the guard hall.
But the female guard originally thought that it would be very easy to hit her, but she didn't expect that the moment she hit her, Song Qingxiao didn't mean to dodge at all, she raised her head, and those eyes looked directly at this woman.
'Bang', the two collided, the female guard only felt a chill, as if hitting an iceberg, Song Qing didn't move at all, under the anti-shock, the strong woman stood unsteadily, fell backwards, pressed the person next to her, and fell backwards together!
"You ......"
Fortunately, none of the people in the guard hall were thin people, and several people took a few steps back one after another, and with the help of others, they were able to stand firmly.
The provocative woman's eyes showed disbelief, and then turned unconvinced, she wanted to go further, but she saw Captain An's back, and finally swallowed this breath and turned ruthless:
"You wait!"
"I'll wait for you." Song Qingxiao smiled and replied to her.
Let her make a fool of herself in public, just gave her a small lesson, after entering the trial ground, such a provocation was really boring for Song Qingxiao.
She carried Tang Yun into the guard hall, a solemn atmosphere enveloped the entire lobby, near the chair on the side of the floor-to-ceiling glass wall, the short and fat No. 5 was wearing a suit, sitting there with his elbows and legs.
Compared with yesterday, he had a little less oily smile, his expression looked a little dignified, he held a handkerchief in his hand, and was wiping his sweat frequently, the moment he saw Song Qingxiao, his face showed a look of overjoy, and he stood up busily.
