Chapter 123: Night Detective (1)

"I have been forgetting to return the jade pendant to you."

Xu Luo's gentle voice sounded in Xia Yujia's ears.

Xia Yujia secretly gritted her teeth.

"This jade pendant is my ......"

Huo Ran raised his head and said in a clear voice.

Xu Luo was stunned.

Is it because it's yours that you pay it back? Could it be that she was unhappy because she forgot to return it in time because she had too many things? But how can we comfort a girl?

Xu Luo suddenly thought of Wang Youxing, and felt that he should discuss it with Wang Youxing if he had time.

Wang Dashao should be much better than himself in this regard.

Xia Yujia's beautiful face suddenly showed a playful smile, compared to her usual, it was like two people.

"And it's my personal thing......"

Sakura's lips turned up slightly, revealing her white teeth.

Xu Luo was even more puzzled, feeling that it seemed that it was not right to say anything at this time, and ......

The lines of his tough face were slightly deformed, and the embarrassment in his heart made him a little at a loss, but he was reluctant to let go of Xia Yujia's hand, but held it tighter.

Wood!

Xia Yujia scolded hatefully in her heart.

"So, I don't want it now, this jade pendant will be yours in the future."

Xu Luo breathed a sigh of relief.

It turned out that this was the case, and it turned out to be tense in vain.

It's just that just as Xia Yujia scolded in his heart, he is really like a piece of wood for girls' psychology, and he doesn't know what Xia Yujia wants to express.

The hand that clenched Xia Yujiayu's hand loosened.

Xia Yujia sighed in her heart, it seemed that it was too difficult to make this wood open.

Harden your heart. Shoved the jade pendant in his hand into Xu Luo's hand.

Lift your feet and get ready to go upstairs.

"Wait, Yujia." Xu Luo's calm voice came from his ears again. He snorted softly, but he didn't insist on the action he was about to take just now, and his beautiful eyes looked at Xu Luo.

"Half an hour later, you call Zhuang Yan here."

Xia Yujia couldn't help but be stunned.

Sensing the doubts in Xia Yujia's heart, Xu Luo blinked his eyes and said softly, "I'll know what to do later." ”

Xia Yujia glanced at Xu Luo again, knowing that Xu Luo must have something. It's just that I still went upstairs suspiciously.

Xu Luo waited until Xia Yujia went upstairs, and then walked under the blank portrait and stared at the blank canvas. Stand still.

For some reason, he always felt that this portrait was very abrupt to hang here.

But I don't understand what other functions this portrait has.

Zhu Cheng's hall is hung with a strange portrait of a Taoist priest killing zombies, and in his grandfather's living room is only a portrait of his grandfather himself.

What is the significance of this blank portrait?

Xu Luo just stood still. Carrying a military hiking bag on his back. With a long black sheath knife in his hand, he was ready to go out hunting zombies.

Half an hour is here in the blink of an eye.

Xu Luo still didn't move, and the whole person was like a sculpture.

"Here we are."

It wasn't until Xia Yujia's voice sounded behind him that Xu Luo slowly turned around, and the expression on his face turned out to be extremely tired.

Xia Yujia and Zhuang Yan were both shocked, not knowing what happened to Xu Luo in such a short period of time.

"What's wrong with you?" Xia Yujia, who was still slightly dissatisfied with Xu Luo's incomprehension, immediately became anxious and asked with concern.

Xu Luo smiled. Whispered, "I'm fine." ”

Even the smile looked tired.

It's just strange that a look of joy flashed in his cold eyes from time to time.

"Come with me."

He said to the two of them in a deep voice.

Zhuang Yan asked, "Where are we going?" ”

"Go to Aunt Xu's house and have a look." Xu Luo said lightly. The blankness of facing the blank portrait just now has disappeared, and the confidence has returned to the resolute and tough face.

Without waiting for the two to answer, they walked to the gate first.

Xia Yujia and Zhuang Yan glanced at each other, and then followed behind Xu Luo and walked outside the house.

……

Calm has returned to the Emerald Villa.

In less than half an hour, all ten carts of food had been loaded, and everyone had returned to their houses.

In a small grove near Area C.

A man whose whole body was shrouded in darkness knelt under a plane tree, lowered his head, and smashed his fist at the trunk.

The sycamore leaves on the tree were shaken by the force of his fist.

It was all over his body, but he didn't know it.

Still not stopping the action of smashing trees.

The back of his thin hand was covered with blood, but he didn't know the pain, as if the two fists didn't belong to him.

"You're just so inefficient."

A muffled voice suddenly came from behind, and finally the man who was dressed in black and whose head was covered by a placket hat stopped.

He slowly got to his feet, stumbling on his feet.

But he was a cripple.

Crippled beard.

He didn't turn around, but said in a hoarse voice: "I said that thing a long time ago, I won't do it, and you won't come to me in the future." ”

The man behind the cripple let out a cold snort.

"Don't forget, what is the purpose of bringing you here?"

The cripple suddenly laughed softly, but the laughter was hoarse.

"It's the end of the world now, what do you care about that shit, besides, what's going on with your bullshit family now, I'm afraid even you don't know, why are you still working so hard."

The voice of the man behind him suddenly became excited.

"Hu San, you want to betray the family!"

"Betrayal?" The crippled man lowered his head, and his hoarse voice became lonely, "It's okay if you want to say that." ”

The man behind him suddenly fell silent, and the cripple didn't look back, just as if there was no one behind him.

After a while, the man said coldly, "Do you think you can escape the pursuit of the family with a little strange power?" You also know that this is the end of the world, and who will come to check if they kill you. ”

The cripple man shook his whole body and slowly raised his head.

Because of the overly wide flap and the dense woods that don't let in the light, no one can see the face.

He didn't turn around, and suddenly shook his head.

"Maybe so, but now the family can send someone to kill me......"

"You?"

There was a palpable hint of mockery in his hoarse voice.

"You want to kill me even with your skills?"

The man was silent.

The cripple put his hands into the two pockets of the black hooded casual shirt on his upper body.

"If it's okay, I'll leave first, don't look for me in the future, I'm just ......"

Behind him, there was a sudden sound of rustling footsteps.

In an instant, the man was behind the crippled man, and with a lightning strike, a dagger like ice was plunged into the cripple's waist.

But not a drop of blood came out.

Only the fastest knife, the most accurate force, the most standard angle can cause such a result.

The crippled man was so frightened that he wanted to rush forward, but found that the man's other hand had stuck in his throat, making him unable to move at all.

But he can speak with difficulty.

"You, you're also a supernatural ......"

The man's mouth let out a cold chuckle. (To be continued......)
