Chapter 7: Clues

Jing Xiang came back to his senses and found that he was already standing in front of the door of the apartment. He didn't quite remember how he had come back, because his mind kept thinking about the so-called common sense he had heard in the association in the evening.

[What kind of common sense is this?] 】

"This is clearly subverting common sense!" Involuntarily, Jing Xiang actually burst out the sentence that he was holding in his heart.

"Jingxiang? Is that you? The door is not locked~" A woman's voice came from behind the door.

Although this uninvited "sister" has been with her for less than two days, it seems that they have lived together for decades, and they have a sense of intimacy with each other like relatives. Maybe he is just like Jing Mo said: A person has been lonely for too long, and finally meets a human who is not affected by his ability to run wild, and is a human of the opposite sex, and his heart will inevitably surge with feelings that he wants to be close.

Although this sentence is a bit ambiguous, Jing Mo also pointed it out appropriately - don't fall in love with her.

Jing Xiang is not a person who has never read love romance movies and romance novels, but for him before this, due to the uncontrollable ability, it was very difficult to have a friend, let alone love love. Therefore, he is indeed a novice in this area, and he has no experience at all, but he will hint to himself: You can't like Jing Mo, because she doesn't like this situation.

"What's wrong? After hesitating outside the door for so long and not coming in, I didn't hear any movement and thought something had happened to you. ”

Jing Xiang was startled and immediately came back to his senses. I saw Jing Mo holding on to the door frame and looking at herself with a different color, and at this time she was wearing a wide bathrobe, and there were still water droplets on the tips of her hair, obviously looking like she had just come out of the bath.

This made Jing Xiang feel even more disobedient - "You, you...... How do you take a shower without closing the door!? Jing Xiang immediately discovered the source of the sense of disobedience, "What if you are peeked at!" As soon as he finished speaking, he squeezed in the door and closed it with his hand.

Jing Mo felt funny when she heard this, and the raised corners of her mouth and curved eyebrows showed that she was in a sunny mood now, "Yo~ Someone peeked at...... What to do? Well, let me think about it...... That's right! Then let him die! Jing Mo smiled happily.

Jing Xiang trembled uncontrollably, obviously frightened by Jing Mo's mischievous language.

"It's boring......" Jing Mo saw that Jing Xiang's performance was not as interesting as he expected, so he gave up the idea of continuing to tease him, "I won't tease you, it's not fun at all." Well, I'm hungry, what should you do now? Jing Mo stared at Jing Xiang blankly.

Jing Xiang also glared at her.

"Hu ......" Finally, he still couldn't stare at Jing Mo, Jing Xiang was defeated and began to take charge of the great cause.

Subsequently, the meal ended with the two gobbling it up.

Jing Mo wiped his oily mouth with a napkin and exclaimed, "I didn't expect my brother's craftsmanship to be so good!" Special, especially this shredded green pepper pork, well, it is a true legend of someone! ”

Jing Xiang was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and casually said: "Oh? Whose true biography? Do you know my parents? Or is it your ex-boyfriend? ”

※※

An unexpected silence spread through the room with the sound of Jing Xiang washing in the kitchen.

Gradually, Jing Xiang also realized that something was wrong, and he secretly looked at Jing Mo through the frosted glass between the kitchen and the living room.

And the back refracted from the ground glass is constantly twitching......

"Woo......"

"Woo, woo......"

[This, is it? Jing Xiang dropped the work in his hand and opened the kitchen door with an arrow.

"Woo haha......ha

The boss with Jing Xiang's mouth open, he didn't understand the situation at all.

I originally thought that Jing Mo was made to cry by his unintentional words, and he did see tears hanging from the corners of Jing Mo's eyes, and was about to apologize and comfort, but what he didn't expect was that Jing Mo was laughing, and the tears in the corners of his eyes seemed to be holding back laughter.

This god-like turn made Jing Xiang almost die of exhaustion.

"Hey...... What are you laughing at, is it so funny? Let me have fun speaking up. Jing Xiang looked weak.

Compared with Jing Xiang, Jing Mo seems to have laughed more and less breath.

"Don't ...... Other...... Don't force me to say it, I'm ...... I'm dying. Jing Mo actually began to scratch the sofa with his nails, and kicked the table and chair with his feet, like a coquettish cat.

Jing Xiang resisted the urge to fall, tried to calm his heart, and asked her again why she was so happy.

After a long time, Jing Mo stopped laughing, but his cheeks were still flushed, "The reason why I became like this just now is to blame you for the redundant last sentence, well, ex-boyfriend...... I'm serious about telling you that in all these twenty years, Miss Ben hasn't met a man who can catch my eye. Moreover, Miss Ben has not had any boyfriends! ”

Jing Xiang nodded, and suddenly, he found that the soles of his feet were a little wet.

"Oops! I forgot to turn off the water! In a hurry, he rushed into the kitchen...... However, because of this, he didn't notice the gloom in Jing Mo's eyes that seemed to come from the depths of his soul.

And at night, Jing Mo generously licensed Jing Xiang to sleep on the sofa, as for her? Of course, it's the big bed that monopolizes Jingxiang. But then again, whose home is this?

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning, Jing Xiang made a breakfast for Jing Mo and went to the association alone, according to his intuition, Jing Mo couldn't get up until noon, so the "breakfast" left for her was very large.

The 235th branch of the Palliative Health School, in a small classroom in Block C.

"Brother Cui Mingren, Mu Lian, you guys are really early!" As soon as Jing Xiang pushed open the door, he was surprised to find that his teammates were already waiting for him before the time of the appointment, "I...... Not late, right? ”

Mu Lian shook her head at him, then lowered her head and played her mobile game.

Cui Mingren smiled when he saw this: "We live away from the school, and we generally don't go out casually during the mission, so it's normal to come earlier than you, don't have a psychological burden." ”

Jing Xiang nodded in understanding, so Cui Mingren then asked, "So...... Is it my turn to consult God? ”

"Wait, you said earlier that there is a price to pay for asking her questions, and I don't know what the price is, but in any case, we should try to avoid asking unnecessary questions that are likely to be repeated." Jing Xiang made a suggestion.

"Indeed, then you can decide what to ask." Cui Mingren generously handed over the decision-making power of this task to the newcomer Jingxiang.

Jing Xiang also felt some pressure, but for him, only with pressure can he be motivated, after all, he is a person who has experienced two college entrance examinations, and for pressure, no pressure is what makes him unaccustomed.

In a short period of time, Jing Xiang has already sorted out a general framework for inquiry.

"So, let's ask the first question first. Ask her if there are werewolves in this world. ”

Cui Mingren closed his eyes, took off his headphones, and then put the index and middle fingers of his right hand together, pointed to the center of his eyebrows, and began to ask: The great all-knowing god Lord Meidisi, under Cui Mingren's request for your oracle and guidance, he is willing to pay the price in order to get the answer to the question of 'whether there is a werewolf clan in this world'!

However, as soon as this sentence was finished, Cui Mingren opened his eyes and said with a slightly surprised expression: "This question actually didn't make me pay...... Not...... The answer is clear, 'non-existent'. ”

"No?" Jing Xiang's eyes lit up, and he was more sure of his guess, "Then, please ask her again, 'Is there a wolf girl in this city'?" ”

"Huh? Isn't this question a subset of the one just now? Doesn't that question already contain the content of the question? Do you want to ask God again? There is no price to pay......"

"Brother Cui, please ask this question once." Jing Xiang looked sincere.

After thinking about it, Cui Mingren finally nodded in agreement, and once again nodded his eyebrows with his hand, "The Great God of All-Knowing, Lord Meisis, under Cui Mingren's request for your oracle and guidance, I am willing to pay the price in order to get the answer to the question of 'whether there is a wolf girl in this city'!" ”

And this time, Cui Mingren didn't open his eyes immediately. After waiting for about a minute, his eyes widened in surprise and said, "She said 'yes'!" And if you want to know the details of the road, you need to pay a certain price, and when I was asked if I would like to, I replied to her, 'I need to think about it'. ”

......The corners of Jing Xiang's mouth hooked up an imperceptible arc, and then said, "No, let's change the question." Ask her what abilities or artifacts can create a non-human life form that doesn't exist. ”

Choi continued to follow the script. This time, it took him a full hour to open his eyes.

"How?" Jing Xiang couldn't wait to know the result of the Dao, and Mu Lian on the side had already been distracted by this rare scene.

"Hmm...... Well, the price of getting the answer to this question is to make me sing a song to her in my heart...... Well, that's not what you want to hear, well, the answer to this question is 'according to the scope of the question, abilities or props can be, there is no existence, non-human races, life forms, and there is only one result - the Book of White Magic, or the Book of Prophecy, and it is very expensive to know the specific information of the book'. ”

"After I finished singing, I asked more things without permission, but it was all 'playing the side ball', and I didn't pay any unacceptable price, but I got more information. First of all, there is the power of the book of prophecy - it can make what is written in the book a reality, but there are limits to it, and to know this limit comes at a cost of life...... So I didn't go any further, but instead asked her if the person using the prophecy needed power or magic. Her answer was that no, anyone who could write a systematic text in this world could use the power of this book. ”

"That's really useful information!" Jing Xiang almost didn't jump up.

"Next, let's sort out the information we already have." Jing Xiang began to write and paint again, and in a short time, it was completed.

"First of all, I have to tell you about one thing I experienced before......" Jing Xiang explained to Mu Lian and the others about his encounter with the wolf girl, "so I will ask the second question, of course, this is based on the fact that the first question has been rejected. And then, I'm going to parse God's answer! ”

This sentence almost didn't scare Cui Mingren, "What? Do you want to parse God's answer? ”

Jing Xiang replied confidently: "That's right, the answer given by Mei Yuansi is actually very vague, 'non-existent' is a negative word, but as a denial of the existence of a population, this is intriguing. 'Existence' itself is a false proposition full of contradictions, the existence of the past and the absence of the present can also be denied, the absence of the present does not mean that it will not exist in the future, existence is something that happens at a point in time, it may also be something that happens in a period of time, but in any case, permanent existence, which itself does not seem to exist. ”

The two people listening on the side were already a little dizzy at the moment.

To put it simply, this answer can be re-questioned, and there are only two ways to ask again, the first is to ask the authenticity of the story "The Legend of the Hungry Wolf", but because the storyline of the novel is projected into reality is a very troublesome thing, and to accurately get the information you want to know, there must be a lot of qualifiers and the logical relationship is easy to confuse; Compared with this option, my own experience just gave me a safer and easier way to ask, that is, the 'wolf girl' I met in reality! Jing Xiang's speech became faster and faster, and his emotions became more excited.

"The answer to the second question is 'yes', which is a direct affirmation of my question, so there is no need to follow up on it, which in itself is a fact. However, the suspicion arises - the wolfless have wolf girls, which seems a bit incongruous, but if I were to ask how the wolf girl appeared, it would almost certainly be that she would answer a lot of details, so it would be a difficult question. So I changed the way and asked directly about the big aspect, what abilities or artifacts there are, correspondingly, the price she asked for would definitely be reduced, but I didn't expect that it was just a song, and it was a silent singing in my heart. Jing Xiang was proud.

"Based on the above inferences, the answer we have obtained can already solve this mission - werewolf story, to put it bluntly, there is an ordinary person who wrote this story in the prophecy book without knowing that he was holding a prophecy book, and then the story became a reality, which had a huge impact on the real world and shocked the magic world." Jing Xiang's face was full of spring breeze, "This investigation task is really surprisingly simple!" ”

Just when Jing Xiang was proud, someone poured cold water on him.

"You're thinking too simply, newcomer." The one who said this was precisely Mu Lian, who had the least words.

And Cui Mingren was confused, and he was also a little happy, because the task was completed, "Is there one?" I think Jing Xiang's thoughts are so complicated, or, as the chairman said, such extreme imagination, such distorted leaping thinking, according to general logic, it seems impossible to think like this......"

"That's because newcomers have read a lot of highly specific detective novels in the past years." Mu Lian hit the nail on the head.

"Uh......" Jingxiang was also stuck by this sentence.

Jing Xiang just wanted to defend himself, but Mu Lian got up and raised her hand to stop him, and continued: "When you found the wolf girl, we were already in a crisis - because you have entered the world of another person's story, although you may only be a passerby, but you have direct contact with the characters created by the story, needless to say, you will also be on the blacklist of the prophecy book." How's that, does it feel familiar? After all, people of this age should have read a lot of fantasy novels of this kind. ”

Indeed, if Mu Lian hadn't reminded him like this, Jing Xiang wouldn't have been able to realize that he had fallen into a crisis, and after Mu Lian's suggestion, Jing Xiang was shocked into a cold sweat.

Unconsciously, a small whirlwind rolled around him, and in an instant, the whirlwind dispersed, and an aura called fear surrounded the hearts of Mu Lian and Cui Mingren.

Jing Xiang's ability - rampage!
