Chapter 116: The conversation ends
"Slander! This is a blatant slander!"
"Slander! I can take Danhag to sue you for slander!"
"Spread rumors! Spread more than 500 wizards, you are legally responsible, don't you understand?!"
"We will never use these rats for illegal magical experiments! This is against the moral code and public order and good customs of our rat clan, and it is also not in line with the basic laws of the wizarding world! We will never do this!"
In the face of Dr. Siu's questioning, Jingle Ear's reaction was unusually intense. As if he had been stepped on by someone's tail, the Rat King jumped up from the ground angrily, his voice sharp, and loudly protested against the malicious speculation and inference of the young wizard in front of him.
"They even know about Danhag?!" The black cat listened to the shouts of the mouse king, and couldn't help but complain to Lin Guo next to him in a very incredible tone: "Are the current mice so knowledgeable? You know, before I came to the First University, I didn't know where the High Court of the Wizarding Alliance was located. ”
"It's common sense, it's not about erudition. Lin Guo first repudiated the young publicly-funded student's words with a slightly sharp answer, and then crossed his arms and continued to analyze in a little adult tone:
"As for the rat knowing about Dan Hag, what's so strange about that. Most wizards in this world may not have anything to do with the Trident Sword, but they must have some connection to Danhag...... Maybe it's a tax dispute, maybe it's an inheritance, or maybe you've pulled out your law book in the wrong place at the wrong time. ”
"In short, according to the description of the little mouse—even if it is discounted by five percent and then by five—we should admit that their 'ancestor' is a being with great magical abilities. For such an being, much of the information of the wizarding world would not be blocked from them because of racial differences. ”
"In other words, there is such an existence sitting in the rat clan, what is so strange about the little rats of the younger generation knowing Danhag?"
"Also, if I'm not mistaken, the last time we ran into Dingtone Ears, it mentioned Danhag, and the little mouse said that if we discriminated against it, we would get a summons from Danhag...... I remember you were there, so there's no reason to forget about it, or did your memory deteriorate because your brain became smaller after you became a cat?"
As he spoke, Lin Guo also stretched out his finger and gestured at the size of the black cat's skull.
The black cat glanced at the little wizard silently, didn't speak, just quietly held his breath, and made his head a little bigger again—well, the changed cat's mouth opened just enough to bite into the head of a certain little wizard—perhaps realizing the threat behind this change, the little wizard snapped and withdrew his arm, smiled flatteringly, and then picked up his schoolbag again, and sat back obediently, not continuing his rambling analysis.
"Ahem, ahem!"
Xiao Xiao turned his head again, looked at the one person and one cat muttering, and coughed heavily.
Lin Guo immediately raised his hand and made a zipper movement at his mouth, indicating that he would keep quiet. The black cat, on the other hand, shrank its head back and lay on the ground boredly, holding its paws on its chest, making a lazy appearance.
The icy breath escaped from the surface of the earth, following the black cat's short fur and seeping deep into his belly. The young public scholarship student couldn't help but shudder and arched his body slightly.
Shorthair cats are not very good at this, and their ability to protect against the cold is weak in winter. Like the long-haired cats next to them – such as the forest cat, or the Persian cat on the other side, or even the underage Ragdoll cat – they don't have this kind of trouble in this cold climate, but are like fish in water, and they are very adaptable.
In front of Xiao Xiao, the tone of Jingle Ear after the anger value was reduced also became much softer, because those shiny stones were still tempting in front of him, so the mouse king quickly adjusted his mentality, and began to explain to Dr. Xiao the reason why he begged the little mouse:
“...... I took those little mice back to see if they could be ignited by the ancestors. ”
"Isn't it because of the early return of silence that a lot of mice in the woods have run into the school recently...... The old ancestor felt that the rat tribe that was usually lit up was a bit lacking in wildness, so he ordered us to come around the campus often to see if we could bring a few little ones back, and if we couldn't say anything, we would send them a creation. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Xiao bowed slightly and glanced back at the black cat.
Zheng Qing also nodded.
The clothed rat that called himself 'Jingle Ears' and the other clothed rat they had encountered before who called himself 'Dingdong Ears' were roughly the same in terms of their ethnic group and why they came to school—of course, perhaps because of the differences in their individuals, they had subtle differences in some of the plots they depicted.
It's just that these details don't hurt.
The young wizards finally satisfied their curiosity and stopped 'interrogating' the poor mouse. And Jingle Ear also counted the few fine diamonds in his paws with satisfaction, his face full of intoxication.
"Although your answer is satisfactory to us, these rats are not to be given to you casually. Xiao Xiao put the remaining broken diamonds into a cloth bag and stuffed them back into his arms, then looked at Jingdong Ear and said seriously: "In view of your good attitude and active cooperation with our investigation, we will not pursue your trespassing on the school and trying to steal school property...... Don't deny that the rats on the school's turf and caught by the school's cats are the property of the school. ”
"If you take it without telling it, you are stealing. ”
Mouse-kun's mouth opened slightly, and he looked dazed.
I don't think that's what I said before...... Or maybe I didn't tell him that before!
Xiao Xiao naturally wouldn't seriously figure out the subtle changes in a mouse's facial expression.
He turned his head to look at the black cat and shouted, "That's the basic...... If there's no problem, let's withdraw. ”
"Are your men ready? This should be the last shipment we'll ever receive. The cages in the store are almost full, and if you don't want to cause a massive rat catastrophe right under the nose of the school, you have to learn to stop in moderation. ”
"The vultures at the Beta Post love the negative press created by the school students. In particular, it also involves the public scholarship students of the Nine Colleges or the Merlin Order winners. ”
The black cat stretched its legs, arched its waist, and yawned long, baring its fangs, noncommittal to the Doctor's 'concern'.
"Let them be ready. He replied lazily, flicking his tail, and turning to walk to the clearing behind the cats. Behind him, the Ragdoll cat, who was lying on the ground, shook his spirits and followed with his head held high. And Poseidon, who had been staring at the sky in a daze, noticed that the boring conversation between the wizard and the mouse was over, and he was so excited that he immediately followed after seeing the black cat's movements.
