Chapter 104: Strange Magic
At about five o'clock, a birdsong woke up the sleeping star cold, and the sun always rose late in early spring, and it was only about a fifth of the way to the sky.
"Ah~" Xing Han sat up and glanced back at Fei'er beside him, his long silver-white hair was scattered on his cheeks, he hadn't seen Fei'er sleep like this for a long time.
Cover Fei'er with the quilt she brought up, gently close the door and leave the room.
The living room was very dim, and without a trace of light, everything in front of me seemed to be covered with a thin veil. Looking up at the time on the LCD screen, at 5:17, there were still about two hours before the girls' daily wake-up time, and the idea of making breakfast suddenly came to Xinghan's heart.
I walked to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and took out a piece of beef about half a human size from the freezer, which was completely frozen and I couldn't do it. This piece of beef was a gift from Chiki Sakai when Hoshihan was in Japan, and it finally came to use.
There is a layer of frost on the beef, which is not the frost in an ordinary refrigerator, but the ice pupil specially attached ice magic to it in order to prevent it from rotting, and ordinary swords cannot easily cut through it.
"My sword, the name is - Broken Star!"
Summoned in the form of a magic spell, the sword has a more powerful light than it normally would.
Quickly cut the beef into small pieces, Xinghan retracted the broken star, and there was only half an hour of use a day, so it was impossible to waste too much on it.
Put it in the pot, scoop it up, sprinkle with some flavor enhancers, and put it back in the pot and simmer.
"Bang!"
Hoshihan unleashes a spell to steam rice, and this form of rice has almost the same texture as a rice cooker, but if the beef also uses this magic, it loses its unique flavor and the texture that Hoshihan has prepared.
"Hey, Shulex?" Xing Han received the call, tucking his phone between his shoulders and neck so that he could keep his hands free to continue working.
"Well, is Xinghan up yet, what's that 'goo-goo' sound?"
"Oh, I'm making them breakfast, would I like some for Sylex? I'll make you more. ”
"Forget it, I'm going to go to the association to sort out a little bit of information about this case, and I'll make do with bread for breakfast. ”
"Really...... Be careful that your body can't hold it, then we'll contact you after breakfast. ”
Xing Han suspended his phone in mid-air with magic, and pulled out a hand to press the button to end the call.
After a lot of tossing and turning, it was already half past six in the morning, and I should be able to make some side dishes or breakfast soup or something like that.
Pour the sauce of your own concoction and carefully spread it on top of the rice spoonful by spoonful, so that the girls' staple food is also available.
There are no leftover ingredients in the refrigerator, and they should all be used up by Bing Tong for dinner, so I'm afraid I can't make breakfast soup. Turning his head to look at the cardboard box on the table next to him, it seems that Bing Tong brought it back from the supermarket yesterday, and he never planned to look at it, but judging from the shape, it should be a drink like milk.
When I opened the box, a milky smell overflowed, so I used this to heat it up and give it to them.
"Ding~" This voice is an alarm clock set by himself, so it seems that the time is already seven o'clock, and Fei'er should almost come out of the room.
"Hmm~ It's so fragrant, eh, isn't it the food cooked by Sister Bingtong?" Phantom Night yawned as she swayed from the room to the dining table.
"Hey, go wash your face and brush your teeth first, it's rare for you to get up so early. Xinghan tore open the outer packaging of the milk and poured it into the glass one by one.
"Hoshihan is cooking...... You didn't go to bed last night, did you?!" Yuexing's clothes were so loose that she could see her skin at a glance.
Xing Han responded: "How is it possible, it's just that I got up a little early today, hurry up and pack up and prepare for dinner, and Xiu Rex will come to pick us up in a while." ”
"Oh, I see, Xinghan, what did you do? It's so fragrant~" Phantom Night tried to open her eyes for the second time, but the result was still unsuccessful.
At 7:20, all the girls came out of the room one after another.
"Brother, it's the first time Fei'er has eaten her brother's cooking. ”
"Really, do you like it?" Xing Han's impression seemed that only Rose and Gong Ye had eaten their own cooking, but Gong Ye was now ......
"Hmm!" Fei'er nodded vigorously and pounced on the beef bowl.
"Hoshihan, is this made with beef from Mr. Sakai?" asked Hitomi after tasting it.
"Well, because there are no ingredients, so I used it, and there is still a little left in the refrigerator, and you can make your own if you like. ”
"Is there anything left...... There is a kind of cow on the Semarian side, and its meat tastes similar to this one, but it is relatively rare, and it would be nice to find out the breed, there should be many of them on the planet. ”
Xing Han glanced sideways at the time, it was already seven forty o'clock, and there was no movement on Xiu Leix's side.
"By the way, Xinghan, do you know the location of this mission?" Ice Hitomi suddenly asked.
Xing Han shook his head and said, "I don't know yet, Xiu Lex has always been reluctant to tell me, really, I won't sneak over by myself, why don't you say it." ”
"She may be afraid that others will hear it, after all, the cases accepted by this kind of association are relatively confidential. ”
"Alright, I'll contact Xiulux, you guys pack up and get ready to go. Xing Han didn't put the finished dishes and chopsticks into the pool, these things allowed Ice Pupil to quickly clean up with magic.
I turned on my mobile phone and dialed the number of Xiu Leixi: "Xiu Leixi, are you here now? We have finished breakfast, by the way, you are here by plane, right? Then we will wait for you at the observation deck on the mountain." ”
"Well, I see, I've just sorted out the information here, so I don't know if it's enough. ”
Hanging up the phone, Xing Han felt nervous for a while, although it was not the first time that Xiu Lex had come into contact with the supernatural case he had talked about, he really didn't want to dig out anything bad from this matter.
At eight o'clock, Xiu Lex's plane landed on time at the observation deck at the top of the mountain, where the field was very wide and landing became much easier.
Lowering the hatch, Xing Han subconsciously walked up, vaguely remembering that during the first mission, there were only himself and Phantom Night Fei'er, sitting on the plane opened by the ice pupil.
"Xiu Leix, it's time to tell me the location of the mission, right?" Coming to the cab, Xiu Renx had switched to autopilot and was leisurely drinking coffee.
"Well, this little red dot is it, it's a long way, and it's almost two hours on the road. ”
Glancing at the small red dot on the screen, it seems to be very close to Australia, worthy of a nameless island, so nameless that it is not even drawn on the map.
"Are we the only ones on this mission?
"Well, I didn't let them come with me, what else do I want them to do with Xinghan here~" Xiulex looked at Xinghan with a smile while putting the cup in his hand aside.
"I didn't say I was good at being a detective, and I wouldn't be able to handle that kind of case. Xing Han leaned against the door frame of the cab, constantly looking at the position of the small red dot on the screen.
Xiu Rex didn't speak, but turned back lightly and responded: "Okay, I'll listen to you today, you can call me as much as you want, even if it's ......."
"Xiu Rex, can you tell us more about this case?" Xing Han didn't pay attention to her, just changed the subject and asked.
"Oh, the victim this time is a high-ranking officer, about the same level as Nishizawa's ability, and it's a strong existence. His body was found on the island a few days ago, and there were no supernatural or physical scars on it, but it did reveal multiple magical blows. So we narrowed down the definition of a murderer to a magician, Xinghan, you think, magicians are all from another world, right?"
"Hmm, so what?"
"So I think Phil knows better than I know what I'm going to see, I don't know what to say, that kind of magic I've never seen before, it's like Shavra's curse, it's all outside of magic. ”
"Wait, Celestia, you're also a magician, aren't you?"
"Uh...... Yes, but I'm not a magician from another world. ”
"Forget it, anyway, let's get to the place first and take a look, if Fei'er's prophecy magic is not wrong, it shouldn't be easy there. ”
......
After two hours of travel, you can finally see the island of your destination, and it is said that the Zero Lan Association has built a villa by the sea, which is not something that can be completed in a day or two.
"Xinghan, I still have a map here, you can take it. "Xiulex took out an identical map from the magic space and handed it to Xinghan, this island is not very big, but it is not small, plus the terrain here is complicated, it is easy to get lost.
"Wait a minute, brother, there's a trace of magic here. Fei'er suddenly grabbed Xing Han's sleeve and pointed to a forest road not far away.
Under the shade of the lush foliage, some magical inscriptions could be faintly seen, very pale in color, and should have been abandoned for a long time.
"Fei'er, can you analyze the effect of this magic?" Xing Han brushed aside a leaf and carefully observed the inscription of the magic.
The inscription is not very large, almost the diameter of three people, and if this is the case, the magic can be restored through the structure of the spell on it.
"No, the structure of the spell has been destroyed by the initiator, if you want to restore this magic, unless you can find the broken part of the spell, you can put it together. ”
The magic technique is very simple, like a program, if one part of the program is destroyed, the whole of the magic will collapse, and the whole magic will be destroyed.
"Forget it, it's useless to keep staring at this clue, Xiurex, take us to see the scene, maybe there will be some residual magic or something there. ”
