Chapter Forty-Nine: Circumstance (I)

"When Shen Wenbin disappeared, the direction of the last pair of footprints was your direction, and there were no more of his footprints after that. If he was unconscious at that time, he would have struggled to chase away from the vampire bat's bite, resulting in messy footprints on the ground.

But his footprints, though irregular from time to time, are not messy. Moreover, the left footprint is significantly deeper than the right footprint, and I can't think of any other situation that could cause this phenomenon other than when wearing shoes.

And the shoes worn at this time must be Glaye, otherwise there are no footprints behind, how to explain? How can this be explained that the place where the falcon went to pick him up was inconsistent with the place where his footprints disappeared? Leng Xingyun asked after analyzing it.

"Wow! Your observation and reasoning are too strong, aren't you? It's a shame not to be a detective! Xiao Pepper thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Although Shen Wenbin suffered skin injuries, the wounds were indeed caused by scratching and biting, and there was indeed a lot of blood.

If he really is one of us, how did those injuries come about? Okay, take 10,000 steps back, even if he is our person, he played this bitter trick just to wait for you to take the bait, but he doesn't know how powerful you are, if you find out, won't he have to die? ”

"Not necessarily." Leng Xingyun analyzed: "There are many of you, and grabbing any one is a shield." What's more, he is just a little minion, no one cares, including himself, and he doesn't necessarily care about his life or death. ”

"......" Pepper felt that her brain couldn't turn a little, and took a deep breath: "I'll go to the falcon and test it to know the result." ”

"I don't advise you to go, it will startle the snake; Besides, the falcon may already be a little suspicious of you. But without knowing those things, I can neither save the enemy nor leave him alone. Leng Xingyun showed a rare look of embarrassment.

"I originally thought that you were a person who would kill and decide on this kind of thing, but I didn't expect you to be so hesitant as a mother-in-law." Pepper sighed sarcastically.

"You're too young to understand." Leng Xingyun said lightly: "It's not anyone or anything, it can be solved with the four words of killing and deciding." ”

"Cut!" Little Pepper glanced at him disdainfully: "So you are old, people are not old, and you are still hesitant old, people, and home!" ”

Leng Xingyun shook his head helplessly, too lazy to take care of her anymore.

"That's it, I'll go to the falcon after dark, but now I'll have to go out for a while. Although we use soundproof tents, the soundproofing effect is only slightly better than ordinary tents.

As long as you don't make any big noise, no one will know you're inside, and no one will dare to break my tent lock in and check it out. ”

After Xiao Pepper finished speaking, he got up and left the tent, not saying where he was going, and Leng Xingyun didn't ask.

She zipped up the tent, locked it, and came to Professor Luo's tent, "Dad, did you wake up from a nap?" ”

"Just woke up." Professor Luo in the tent said, "Come in and talk." ”

After Xiao Pepper opened the curtain and went in, he was busy using the light energy miniature electric stove to make tea for Professor Luo.

During this period, the two were speechless.

Until Xiao Chili poured a cup of steaming tea, blew it lightly for a while, handed it to Professor Luo with both hands, and smiled slightly: "Dad, please drink tea." ”

Professor Luo took the teacup, blew the hot air, took a sip of tea, and asked without being salty or light: "This time to find a god, dad, do you have anything to say?" ”

Little Pepper smiled shyly: "Dad, I'm twenty-four." ”

Professor Luo first glanced at her puzzled, then understood, and smiled: "Yes, a twenty-four-year-old girl, you have been with me for six years in a blink of an eye." ”

Professor Luo took a sip of tea unhurriedly, didn't raise his eyes to look at her, and only said with a faint smile: "The eldest girl hates to get married, right?" ”

Pepper smiled shyly, "I've known Falcon for six years. ”

"Hmm." Professor Luo nodded: "Falcon is a good kid, he values love and righteousness, and is brave and determined!" But since three years ago, the girl that Falcon had taken a fancy to had died on a mission, he had never taken a fancy to anyone.

You are twenty-four, he is twenty-six, and they are all my right-hand men who have been with me for many years, and you two are a good match for me, and it is a good match made in heaven! I just don't know if he wants to, this kind of thing is not sweet. I'll give you an answer when I ask him. ”

"Dad, I, I want to ......" Pepper blushed and whispered, "I want to talk to him after nightfall." ”

Professor Luo put down the teacup heavily and stiffened his face: "How many times have I told you, you must maintain a cold and arrogant appearance, and you can't show deep affection for anything, let alone hinder your determination to complete the task because of the love of your children!" ”

Little Pepper bowed her head slightly, pouting and looking aggrieved.

Professor Luo still had a stiff face, but sighed: "Originally, unmarried men and women who join the organization must forget their love, and married people must also leave the family, and it is best to cut off contact. But you...... You are my goddaughter, and although Falcon is not my godson, I have long regarded him as my godson.

Anyway, we are all our own family, and you and the falcon can allow you to make your own decisions. But I have to remind you again, don't be dragged down by emotional matters to complete the task, or make any mistakes, otherwise one person's fault will be punished by the other! ”

"Yes! Thank you, Dad! Little Pepper's face was full of joy, and then he cleared his throat with a cold face, looking extremely cold: "Dad, if there is no other command, I will go out first." ”

"Hmm." Professor Luo nodded, continued to shake the folding fan, and picked up the teacup.

After Pepper returned to his tent, he quickly took out a tissue and wiped his sweat out of breath.

Leng Xingyun looked at her and said leisurely: "The Demon Valley in summer is indeed very hot, but how long has it been since you went out, as for the heat?" ”

"Of course! Don't you see me hot up like a dog? ”

In fact, Xiao Pepper didn't really heat up like this, but thought that if she said those words to Professor Luo, she would be severely reprimanded and even slapped. I was worried in my heart, but I had to pretend on the surface, but I didn't expect Professor Luo to be abnormal.

Because in Xiao Pepper's impression, although Professor Luo accepted her as his daughter, his care for her and the people in the shelter organization are also obvious to all.

But most of the time, she is either cold and strict, or lukewarm and indulgent. There are occasional times when fatherly gentleness occurs, but that is rare.

Therefore, Xiao Pepper turned from nervous at the beginning to relaxed, and it was the first time she lied to Professor Luo, and she felt weak and uneasy, but she had to keep pretending in front of Professor Luo.

After returning to his tent, he completely relaxed, of course, he couldn't help but breathe quickly and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat!

But Leng Xingyun didn't know or imagined that Xiao Pepper was just trying to help him find out the situation, using and betraying her own feelings to maneuver.

And he, I don't know if it's out of boredom or for some reason, after Pepper said that, he said leisurely: "Dogs are not as hot as you." ”

"We don't have a dog in the camp, how do you know that the dog is not as hot as me?" Pepper replied without showing weakness.

"......" Leng Xingyun suddenly felt like lifting a stone to hit his own feet, so he completely stopped caring with this sharp-toothed woman.
