051. Seedlings of the present world
"You dare to hold the hand of death? So, you're brave, aren't you? ”
Just as Jiang Mi was clasping his hands and showing a smug expression, a somewhat hoarse and strange voice suddenly sounded.
I don't know why, Jiang Ning always felt that the owner of this voice was like he had just begun to learn to speak, and the timbre sounded a little strange.
Not only Jiang Mi, but everyone except Yi Mo was taken aback by this voice, and they all began to look around, looking for the source of the sound.
However, the people around them did not show any unusual behavior or expressions, and it can even be said that no one noticed them at all.
So where did that voice come from?
Just when everyone was wondering, Yi Mo suddenly chuckled, and when everyone looked at him, he looked apologetic, and gently patted his shoulder with a white glove.
After such a reminder, Jiang Ning focused his attention on Yi Mo's shoulders, and only then did he discover the existence that he had been ignoring all along....... Black crow.
Yi Mo was wearing a black suit, and when he came, everyone's attention was actually on the pattern on Yi Mo's dress and the mask he was wearing, so he didn't notice that there was a crow on his shoulder.
But wait, talking crows? Are you sure it's not a starling? Also, does this guy mean Yi Mo when he says "Grim Reaper"?
Looking at it this way, it is also very reasonable that there is a black crow that symbolizes death on the shoulder of the Grim Reaper.
"Don't listen to this guy's nonsense...... Besides, it is a strange thing for a crow to be able to speak. ”
Yi Mo smiled helplessly, and stretched out his finger to tap the black crow's head while introducing it to everyone.
"This crow was on the side of the street before I came here, and it was standing on the eaves of the house, and as soon as it saw me, it flew over, and it couldn't get rid of me......"
"And how can it talk?" Jiang Ning asked with some curiosity.
"I don't know, but according to it, it was born in a bird's nest planted in front of a movie theater, and it was able to see the movie from that angle, so it slowly learned human language under the influence of the movie."
Hearing this answer, Jiang Ning felt that a string in his mind seemed to be touched, and he suddenly thought of something, but he didn't say much in front of everyone.
Speaking of which, it is not unreasonable to learn human language under the influence of movies.
I remember that scientists did an experiment on crows a long time ago, and later found that these crows generally have a high IQ, so it is normal to be able to learn the language should be spoken?
It's just that when you encounter it in reality, normal people will find it a little unbelievable.
Jiang Mi and Zimio are obviously such people, but their reactions are also different.
Jiang Mi was the most normal of the two people, and that expression was like seeing the most incredible spectacle in the world with his own eyes, but this kind of performance made him look a little exaggerated and abnormal.
Zimio looked like a little girl, as happy as seeing a moving doll, completely ignoring what the crow and Yi Mo thought, and put down the phone to lean towards Yi Mo's side.
"Don't come near me, you wicked woman!"
Of course, the crow had never seen such a scene, flapping its wings to try to drive Azusa away, and after a few seconds of flying in the air, it stood firmly on Yi Mo's shoulder.
Azusa Mio didn't succeed, and she was afraid that the crow would hurt herself with her claws or beak, so she could only unwillingly stretch out her finger and poke it at the crow.
"By the way, little crow, what did you mean by the term 'Grim Reaper'?"
"I've seen a lot of this thing, I can only say that I understand everything, and I don't want to say more if I don't understand, let's taste it carefully, anyway, don't ask me what's going on, the interests involved here are too big, and it's not good for you and me to say it, so you just don't know."
The black crow's answer made Jiang Ning's face burst into black lines, saying that he learned human language because of watching movies, but now it seems that this guy's mouth is full of Internet terms, dare you also surf the Internet?
To be honest, the riddler's character design made Jiang Ning a little unhappy, but how could a human like himself be as knowledgeable as a bird.......
Maybe it's the same as what Yi Mo said, this guy will learn any language when he sees it, it's all nonsense.
Thinking like this, Jiang Ning temporarily put aside the doubts in his heart, but he still kept an eye in his heart.
"I don't want to say it." Azusa Mio muttered to herself hatefully, and suddenly she seemed to remember something, and looked at Yi Mo, who could be called an old friend, "By the way, what about Mr. Chiba?" Didn't I come with you this time? ”
"You said Chiba, he still has a lot of things to do in Japan, so let's come along."
Although Yi Mo's smile was covered by a mask, the lower half of his face was still warm.
"He and I are both members of the Investigation Department, and recently my superiors have asked the Intelligence Department to obtain information about a group of people, so in addition to arranging for me to go on a business trip here, Chiba stayed there."
When he said this, Yi Mo sighed, looking like he was not satisfied with the boss's arrangement, and helped his forehead, revealing an expression of some headache.
"I really don't know what my superiors think, and they arranged for me to go on a business trip alone...... The task is still so heavy. ”
"It's okay, at least Mr. Yimo, you're not like Mr. Chiba, there is basically no good weather when you start working~" Azusa Mio thought of something, and suddenly sneered, "I remember that every time I see him, the weather is either a storm, a rainstorm, or a blizzard, it's really interesting~"
"Chiba's working environment is well known in the Investigation Department."
Yi Mo smiled slightly, and when he and Zimio recalled this person named "Chiba" together, they naturally showed a happy expression immersed in memories.
Jiang Ning, who was on the side, couldn't help but squint his eyes, although he hadn't come into contact with the person they called "Chiba", but he had seen this name in a previous book.
There is never good weather at work, the Investigation Department, the Intelligence Department, these terms....... Is that really the case?
"Oh yes, do you have any devices here to listen to music?" Yi Mo suddenly asked, "It's been a long time since I came to this cruise ship, I feel ........"
"It feels like the body is hollowed out, sometimes after overwork." The black crow interrupted Yi Mo's words, and Jiang Ning vaguely saw a hint of banter in its eyes.
I have to say that this crow is indeed a good hand at picking up stalks, and it can be regarded as a "mascot".
