Chapter Ninety-Eight: This Exam
—4 a.m. on October 1, 2018.
Su Xingchen searched for the evidence in the tea man village, and also figured out the true identities of the remaining two fugitive targets.
When driving back to the Wulao Peak Tunnel, Su Xingchen saw Ye Bei carrying the Wuhuan Flying Hammer alone, his body shape was unpredictable, as if he was practicing with the air.
Mieko Ono sat on the sidewalk, her head buried in her arms, and fell asleep tired from her knees.
Listening to the sound of Jin Mingqing surging in the wind, but after a while, Ye Bei seemed to feel Su Xingchen's presence from a distance of more than 100 meters.
He immediately collected his weapon, packed up the tattered unfinished armor on the ground, and ran out with a grin.
"Huh! Leadership! I made up the lessons. ”
Su Xingchen got out of the car and was a little distracted.
Because of this Yebei, it doesn't seem to be quite the same.
To elaborate, Xingchen, an ordinary person, can't tell what is different.
"What about Mieko? How is she? Su Xingchen asked.
Ye Bei replied solemnly: "The sexy female teacher's teaching process is too intense, resulting in old injuries and physical exhaustion, and she is temporarily dormant. ”
Su Xingchen thought for a while...... Come on, he hasn't changed, he is still the same Mr. Ye who lacks virtue in his mouth and underbehaves.
"Let's send them back first, the child can't live without a mother." Su Xingchen said.
The two lightly lifted Mieko into the back seat of the car and prepared to drive back to the mother and child center.
Along the way, Su Xingchen handed Ye Bei a cigarette.
"Quit it." Ye Bei raised his hand to refuse.
Su Xingchen lit a cigarette by himself: "Yo? Say quit just quit? Awesome, huh? ”
Ye Bei smiled without saying a word, he looked at his hands, the lung function of his body was still dormant, and the body of the ghost did not need oxygen - at this moment, he felt the natural and harmonious consciousness gushing out of his body, followed by the bulging chest cavity and swallowing breath in his limbs.
There's a saying what's it called?
- People live a breath of life.
In Mieko-sensei's textbooks, there is not only [sword], but also [qi].
When the car stops in front of the main gate of the Mother and Child Center.
Mieko has woken up, she has regained her spirits, and she has also regained her cold attitude.
"What are you going to do?"
Su Xingchen and Ye Bei introduced themselves in a serious manner.
Xingchen said: "Lady Mieko Ono, hello, I am an intelligence officer of the Spirit Force, named Su Xingchen. ”
Ye Bei's statement is much more down-to-earth.
"Fight monsters."
Su Xingchen continued: "Your husband is likely to have become a monster, judging from the clues left by the tea man village, Ono Shengxuan and the Takeda-sama in your mouth slashed each other with demon knives, leaving feathers and blood at the scene, under the street surveillance, we found a monster shaped like a horseshoe crab and got into the sewers in the downtown area. ”
Ye Beizhen echoed with words: "Yes, what kind of fish is coming?" ”
“Hou! Say the fourth tone!" Su Xingchen disliked Ye Bei's cultural level was too low.
Mieko's expression was solemn: "Sheng Xuan...... Turned into a youkai? ”
"We found this too." Su Xingchen took out a scroll of codex from the package, which was stained with blue blood. "Your husband left you a letter."
Mieko wanted to speak and stopped, her heart was complicated, and she didn't know how to face this family letter.
Su Xingchen was calm.
"I've already read it once, do you want me to read it to you?"
"No......" Mieko waved her hand, the martial artist was weak in terms of feelings, "I just ...... I don't know how to talk to my baby. If the baby grows up...... What should I do? I don't know how to name my baby......"
Ye Bei took the codex, and was just about to use his brains to convey the words in the family letter euphemistically, but as soon as this file was opened, his head was big when the dense Japanese on it made his head bigger.
Fake business cards and fake names with a little blue bloodstain.
Su Xingchen didn't show any emotion, showed the codex to Mieko, and read it out in Chinese.
[Mieko, why did you betray me? 】
[I am your mentor, you thief, you will take revenge, dare to steal my things, and steal that child! 】
[If you still have a conscience and are worried about my safety, come back to find me, go to the Tiantai Mountain Immortal Residence to find Lord Takeda, and take his sword! ] 】
[Take that child and sword, come to the underground waterway to find me, remember to bring a lamp, the road is very dark, don't break that child.] 】
[I have already handed over my soul to the owner of Huangquan Fang, and only the sword can save me. 】
[Mieko, don't betray me again! 】
[Don't betray me again!] 】
[I hate you so much! 】
Originally, Su Xingchen and Ye Bei would have thought that Teacher Mieko would be very sad.
But looking at the expression on her face, it is like an old monk who has settled down, and it is difficult to change.
After a long time, Mieko took a deep breath and handed over Hu Che to Ye Bei.
"Ghost, my sword, I'll give it to you."
Ye Bei caught the baby freely, and he didn't see it at all.
"Thank you, teacher, for the sword."
Compared with Ye Bei, Su Xingchen had more IQ and less EQ, he frowned and asked, "You're not angry?" ”
Mieko folded her hands and made a Buddhist ceremony.
"Sheng Xuanhui and Lord Takeda turned against each other, for the demon sword. will call me a thief, call the baby 'that child', maybe the baby has long been turned into property in his eyes, no longer my flesh and blood, this is also for the demon knife. will become a monster, but also for the demon knife. ”
With a calm heart, she pushed open the door of the Mother and Child Center.
"My heart is dead, but I still have to live for my baby."
The two Tenshu agents saw that Mieko's thigh wound was torn open, and the rags of the suit were rewrapped.
"Please let Sheng Xuan become a Buddha, if he can't become a Buddha, don't let him be a ghost, I don't want the baby to grow up and have entanglements with this man." Mieko turned around and bowed to the two detectives, her tone was cruel and ruthless: "I am injured, and I have no power to hurt the ghosts and gods, my baby is still waiting for me, I, as a mother, can no longer compete with others as before."
Ye Bei and Qi Qi acted in unison, the master and servant maintained a high degree of tacit understanding, and Teacher Mieko gave a thumbs up.
Mieko had a puzzled expression, not quite sure what the student was thinking.
"Not bad!" Ye Bei's smile revealed two rows of white teeth. "I've seen a lot of immortal arts, and I've always envied the power of these miracles. Today –
- I saw your immortal arts! It is a magical swordsmanship that can slash the past for the sake of the future! Teacher! ”
Mieko opened her mouth slightly, her face was surprised, she forgot to hide her bad mouth.
Ye Bei held Hu Che high, and he praised vividly: "I can pick it up and put it down!" Madame, you are a handsome and dashing man! Remember to set a good example for your baby in front of him! ”
"Hahahaha!" Mieko crossed her waist and looked like she took it for granted, and laughed out loud angrily, "Ghost! What's your name? You must have been a brave man when you were alive! ”
"My name is Ye Bei, and I am an unlicensed onmyoji."
The ghost hugged the cat master and got into Su Xingchen's car.
Looking at the car in the distance, Mieko hurriedly limped back to her son.
She lost her identity as a martial artist at the moment, and she was afraid that the hand holding the knife would not be able to protect the weak life in her arms.
"Baby...... Mom's surname is no longer Ono. ”
Her real name is Mieko Ogata, and she married into the Ono family and changed her surname.
The little doll stretched out her hand from the swaddling clothes, rubbed her mother's rough fingers, smelled the familiar smell, and the baby smiled from ear to ear.
There was a pair of cracked old glasses on the table.
There is also a new pair of glasses that Su Xingchen bought.
Mieko's voice is soft and delicate, soft-spoken.
"Is it okay to call you North?"
The baby couldn't understand the mother's words, so he whined a few times and only cared about pinching his mother's fingers.
Mieko asked again, "Then what about calling you Kitichiro?" ”
It seems that the baby is unhappy when he doesn't get a response from his mother.
"It's really hard to choose a name...... Mieko covered her head and was in trouble, throwing away the name, coaxing the child in her arms, and taking the breast milk on the table to take care of it.
Listen to her mutter.
"Kendo has to be examined, so why don't you take it before becoming a parent? It's such a difficult errand. ”
