【Thousand Entanglements】

"Senior Yonghe, what do you think?" asked Cedar after seriously looking at the frightened blonde youth in front of him.

"Thank you, Lord Zhou......" Yonghe nodded again and again, showing a bright smile, "Thanks to you, it's fine." ”

"So, do you remember who attacked you?" asked Cedar solemnly, picking up his notepad.

Yonghe, who had just regained his flashy appearance a little, turned pale in an instant, and clutched the sheet tightly.

"Senpai?" Cedar hurriedly stretched out his hand to reassure him.

“...... Teng Ji!" After hesitating for a moment, he took a deep breath before he finally hissed.

"Teng Ji?" Cedar frowned, "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure! I've participated in the Battle of Luoyang, and I know her! That sense of oppression...... If it's an illusion, then the caster must be very clever!"

"What's the matter with the beast footprints left at the scene?" Nominee asked coldly.

Yonghe smiled bitterly: "This is exactly what I wondered, there are many fierce beasts following her...... My lord, I think I'm starting to understand that the guy who attacked me was smart, but it's a pity that 'it' made a mistake and didn't kill me......"

Cedar was silent for a moment, and said puzzledly: "I don't quite understand...... Can you elaborate on that?"

"As a member of the Nine Giants, I always think that the deceased is a man-made disaster, and that it is by no means the real Teng Ji," Yonghe nodded solemnly, "The opponent wants to disguise himself as Teng Ji, but maybe it is the strength below me, or maybe it is my own habits, 'it' used a fierce beast." ”

"Do you have any idea who the assailant is?" asked Cedar as she remembered.

Yonghe nodded silently and looked at Cedar for a moment.

"I'm worried that you'll be angry, because I think ......," he finally made up his mind, "it's Teng Xueyao." ”

"Xiao Jiu, impossible!" Cedar was startled, then pursed her lips, "I'm sorry, please continue, I'm sure there must be a reason why you said that." ”

"Young Master Xiao Teng's strength is not strong but he is so ambitious, he really wants to do something, and I used to be a cadre in F City, and I often oppose his views, he will inevitably ...... Also, my investigation of Teng Ji may have angered him, who affected his career because of his background......"

"Forgive me for talking too much, Your Excellency," Noborea said coldly, "this is just a conjecture without any basis, right?

Yonghe smiled awkwardly: "Ah...... I also have a bit of the idea of chasing fame and fortune, and if I am the leader, I can only ask Mr. He Yanfang, you know that he is not very willing to mention the past, even if I chase and fight, he will fool me, so I will bully the Teng brothers. I'm willing to accept the punishment, but I also want Xue Yao to know that he has lost his way. ”

"Senior, the murderer is not yet certain. Displeased, Cedar reminded.

He didn't believe that Teng Xueyao was one of the few existences in the courtyard that he could be considered a friend, this demon fox boy went on his first mission with him and Harden, the Hirophra Demon Sword incident made him feel that he had really made two new friends, how could Xue Yao, who was as helpless as him, do such a thing, and Xue Yao was with them when the accident happened!

"I'm sorry, I'm too arbitrary," Yonghe immediately admitted his mistake, "But my lord, I think the opponent is an illusionist, if it's not Young Master Xiao Teng, then it's ......"

"Say it, please. Knowing what his pause meant, Cedar nodded for him to continue.

Yonghe sighed deeply: "Jean Langnas." ”

“...... What?" Cedar was at a loss again, "this-"

"Even in the Demon King Capital, the only illusionist who can be called a brilliant illusionist is Jean. Yonghe's expression was very serious.

"Your Excellency, Jean is stronger than you, and if he wants to kill you, he will not miss at all. There was disdain in Nominee's tone.

"I'm just speculating that he's the most likely!I met him by chance to visit the Meng Jin brothers and sisters, and he secretly brought back the corpse of the ghost god boy from the Meng Jin brothers and sisters, he must have some plans......!" Lord Zhou, you have to be careful!"

"What's the matter with the corpses? What do you mean—" Cedar finally became horrified, "Mr. Jean is the Heavenly Punisher, and he ......"

"Forgive me for being rude, but we don't really know Jean, do we?" Yonghe's tone was so serious that Cedar couldn't help but think.

The "Phantom Doll" Jean Lonners, this handsome and likable red-haired young man does have a mysterious temperament, but ......

He was silent for a moment, then quickly spoke again: "I'm new, but the others—"

"No, even if you ask the Heavenly Punisher Archives, Jean's origin is unknown!" Yonghe's gaze was resolute, "But it's not difficult to speculate, his father is a ghost god boy, and he must have some plans to secretly retrieve his father's corpse!"

"Senior, your tone is too sure, all this needs to be investigated. Cedar sighed and stared at him coldly.

"If you want to doubt Jean, then you have to question He Yanfang, right? Nominee asked disinterestedly.

"It is indeed possible that Mr. He knows, if the deceased can be resurrected, then it is also possible for Bai Zeyu Xuan to be resurrected!

"Senior, we'll think about it, but it's useless to speculate too much. Cedar's tone hardened, "Do you have any enemies or discordants?"

Yonghe had no choice but to smile awkwardly: "There are still ...... The giant son of righteousness, Ji Chongming. ”

"Why?"

"I worked with him, but we didn't have the same personalities, and I worked in S before I was transferred to F City," a little reluctant, but Yonghe still answered honestly, "I admit that I'm a little jealous of him, unlike Young Master Xiao Teng, as a disciple of 'Shadow of Soul Palpitations', he is very good, and he has not been hindered by this identity ...... career."

"You sound sincere, but won't this improve your relationship with Ji Jun?"

Yonghe smiled bitterly: "It's always easier to say than to do...... By the way, my lord, I'm actually worried about Chongming continuing to be the giant, shouldn't he be- no, it's not all because of selfishness, he has been a giant for eight times, and the family has suffered a lot of casualties, can we still bear to let him continue to sacrifice? He has suffered enough, I once saw him muttering alone in the family cemetery, I am worried that he will have demonic thoughts!"

Hearing this, Cedar could only be silent.

"I know what I say will make you uncomfortable, but I just want to reflect the situation as much as possible. Yonghe smiled considerately, "I'm done with what I should say, you can go back and rest first." My lord, I hope you will consider my speculation. ”

——·——

Holding a notebook and slowly walking out of the ward, Cedar was a little confused.

"What do you think, Noborea?" he hesitated, asking his fellow synth with a cold personality.

"What's your idea?"

"Yonghe-senpai seems to be sincere," Cedar said bitterly, "but he makes people angry. ”

"He lacks evidence for other people's speculations but is full of malice, and his attitude seems sincere but not introspective, right?" After waiting for him for a while, Noborea said slowly.

"I think the most uncomfortable thing is that he only talks to me, you are obviously asking him questions, but he only answers me, so disrespectful to you!"

“...... Stupid boy," Nobuya was silent for a moment at his angry words, "and what do you think of the conspiracy he said?"

"That's it...... I can't believe it, but I will try to communicate with Mr. He and Mr. Jean to clear up the misunderstanding. ”

"Cedar, do you really trust He Yanfang and them so much?"

I really don't know much about Mr. He and them, but Mr. He's gentleness will not be fake. I'll look for the facts, no matter what......"

"Cedar, I still have to ask, what would you do if your idol was really not so glamorous?"

"Do you all have something to hide from me? I always feel that you know Mr. He very well, and only I am kept in the dark......" Cedar was puzzled, "Harden has asked similar questions, but I think I can bear it, and if he does something wrong, I will try to correct him." I don't think that can be changed, no matter who makes a mistake, we have to stop it, but in the absence of evidence, we can't just suspect anyone. ”

"Yes...... Noborea's tone softened a little, "as you can see, the relationship between the temple is as intricate as its logo, 'The Knot of Fear', do you think you can handle it all with your innocence?"

Cedar stood in the hallway, looking out at the dark trees, the breeze stirring the leaves, and the restless rustling sound filling the eardrums.

"I don't know...... I won't say that everyone is actually a good person, but if I have to doubt or believe, if I have to choose, I want to try to believe others first. No matter how naïve you think I am, I still want to do it. ”

"Cedar, I think...... It's great that you've chosen me," Nobuya seemed to laugh, "Having 'Reincarnation' will at least minimize your damage." ”

Cedar laughed, and gently rubbed the soft cyan sword body of "Blue and White Meditation": "I know, thank you, Dengzhi." I'll try to look less stupid, and the last thing I want you to be down in me is. ”

"I still have expectations for you, but I would most like you to be relatively independent like Harden and less dependent on my strength and judgment...... Forget it, it's not time yet. ”

"Huh?"

"Nothing. Listen, Cedar, stick to your attitude, don't believe that speculation is right, words have magic after all, even if the words have fallen, the power in the words will not disappear. Just like Yonghe's words, even if you don't believe it, you will still remember that your mind is entangled when you think, so you must be rational. ”

Cedar nodded and smiled slightly: "Thank you, I will remember." ”

Seeing Carlos and Jean talking from afar on the other side of the hallway, he slowed down for some reason.

(We don't know Jean as a person, do we...... It's not difficult to speculate that his father is a ghost boy boy, and he must have some plans to secretly retrieve his father's corpse...... It is indeed possible that Mr. He was informed...... ）

"You're already thinking about it, aren't you?" Nobuya's calm question suddenly pulled his consciousness back.

"Ah...... I'm sorry!"

"You don't have to say you're sorry, the key is that you understand what you have to do. ”

By this time, Jean and Carlos had already turned to look at him and smiled.

"Thank you for your hard work, let's talk about the content of the question in detail when we go back. We just talked to Xiao Ruan, and he said that we can visit Shi Xue, would you like to come along?" Jean asked softly, as amiable as ever.

"Xiao Jiu's younger brother, right? Cedar nodded, and followed them to the single room, peering through the glass window at the beautiful and sick child.

The child was lying quietly on the bed, looking in good spirits, Xue Yao was peeling apples for him, and the scene of the brothers smiling and chatting was quite warm.

(My investigation of Teng Ji may have angered him because of his background...... Yonghe's words came to mind, which made Cedar inexplicably irritable.

Sure enough, I still care about it...... But he said that he should not suspect anyone at will.

You have to deal with it, Zhou Xuesong. He smiled helplessly, knocked lightly on the door, and greeted the fox brother with a smile.

Temporarily forgetting the speculation that entangles his thoughts, he looked at the other party's sincere smile and felt that his heart had returned to peace.

——·——

Preview: "Zhaohua, your so-called brother is very dangerous, he is an undead at all, right?"

"What about you, Sun Rin, you also use the power of the undead, don't you?"

"Don't mess with me!"

"Do you feel like you're out of your own hands? I feel miserable......"

"Looks like we're still going to get along, and I'm ...... When will we be able to get out of control when we are tormented by them, and if we are tortured by them and left to their mercy, we will commit seven deadly sins and be devoured by demons......

The deceased are still the deceased and the memory, and the long-standing karmic grudge grows in this season as a flower of sin that cannot be stopped.

Caught in a labyrinth of doom, warriors entangled in the undead are pitted against each other, and the battle never ends.
