Chapter 35: The Umbrella That Weathered the Rainstorm (Part II)
The news of Liang Wen's transfer came very suddenly, and the bullying quartet breathed a sigh of relief when they learned about it.
"Look at that girl......" The yellow-haired girl was bored as she leaned on the railing of the corridor on the second floor, gesturing at the students downstairs.
"Shall we teach her a lesson?" The pimple boy suggested, but his tone was hesitant.
"Forget it."
A second later, the four of them spoke in unison, shivering in unison.
It seemed that the figure of the sword-wielding demon was firmly imprinted in their minds.
Lin Zuzu, who was far away in the team, suddenly sneezed. She didn't pay much attention to it, though, because the news she had just received put her in a good mood.
It was a group photo of Liang Wen and his classmates in the enchantment division advanced training class at the same time.
In the photo, the pale girl is flushed and smiling cheerfully.
Day Twelfth.
The 11 team, which had been calm for a few days, received a new task.
It's just that Lin Zuzu is not on the list of actions.
Of course, she remembered that she was still in the punishment period, so she cautiously asked, "Could it have something to do with Elise?" β
"Nothing to do." Li Qin replied calmly.
Seeing this, Lin Zuzu stopped talking, because the state of the three of them was completely different from usual.
Ittingevil locked himself in his bedroom, unaware of what he was messing with.
Li Qing maintained a simple but extremely sharp knife over and over again. You know, in the previous missions, he used the team's standard silver blade.
Even, even Li Qin, who has always been calm and indifferent, has some ...... on his face Nervous.
How dangerous must this be a task......
Lin Zuzu couldn't help but worry.
Before leaving, Li Qin took a moment to teach the girl how to use the testing equipment and told her never to be reckless. If she faints alone, she probably won't be able to get up.
Lin Zuzu agreed, but there was a not very good feeling in his heart-
It seems that they will not be able to return for a long time.
"Let's go, be careful." Li Qing said with concern.
"Okay, senpai."
"Train well, but don't do it." Li Qin was holding a suitcase in his hand.
"I know, sister."
"Don't pick up anything on the floor to eat." Itting's evil genre is not shocking and endless.
"Huh?" The girl was puzzled.
"Gone." But he didn't mean to explain, and left with his teammates.
As a result, the 11th team, which was still popular in the past, quieted down.
Perhaps, what Master meant was to know how to run away when in danger.
Then you have to run away.
Lin Zuzu smiled bitterly and put on the motion monitoring bracelet.
As Li Qin expected, Lin Zuzu was really very unconscious!
Adhering to the idea of "as long as you don't die, then you will die", after the established training volume is completed, she began to add additional training content to herself.
She prefers the practice of knife skills to basic physical strength training.
In the swing of the knife again and again, she can always clearly perceive the excitement rising from the bottom of her heart.
Listening to the sound of the blade cutting through the air, imagining the moment when the blade sliced through the flesh, she became more and more excited.
If you can cut something......
However, such an abnormal mood, she still attributed it to hatred.
It wasn't until he could no longer hold the knife that Lin Zuzu walked out of the training ground to wash up, and cleaned the common area by the way. Then he pretended to study his training data, and settled his dinner with takeout, until 11 o'clock.
However, the three members of Team 11 still did not return, and there was not even information about the end of the mission.
It's not that she didn't ask them how many days they would have to go, but even Li Qin, who has always been accurate, can't give a definite answer.
Lin Zuzu finally left the 11th team, and when she walked to the door of the community, a clear and charming voice came from her ears.
"Why are you working overtime? It's late. β
"Xiaobai?"
Lin Zuzu stood still and saw the trainee version of Bai Jiu.
He was quite low-key today, lowering the brim of his cap and hiding his peach blossom eyes, but his exposed nose and chin were still very beautiful.
"Let's go, I'll take you to have supper, barbecue~"
"It's late, I'll train tomorrow."
"Go, go, go~" Bai Jiu walked over and gently pushed her in one direction.
Hey, it has to be "natural charm".
Lin Zuzu thought about it, never mentioning the temptation from the barbecue.
***
It's a barbecue restaurant outside the residential area, and it looks like it's been open for a long time, and all the customers come here. The store was noisy, noisy and lively.
When the girl and the demon fox arrived, two men who looked like ordinary uncles greeted them.
They were all in their forties and fifties, but one was rough and the other was kind.
"This is Xiao Zhang, this is Xiao Wang."
Yes? Lin Zuzu glanced at Bai Jiu, who looked like he was twenty years old, in disbelief, and suddenly remembered that the demon's human form did not match his age.
These two people were not displeased with Bai Jiu's title, indicating that they knew Bai Jiu's true body.
These two ...... Also interracial. Moreover, there is a high probability that it is still a demon.
"This is my landlord Lin Zuzu, and now a member of the Special Operations Team." Bai Jiu introduced.
However, the demon clan has not been able to transform into a human form after decades or hundreds of years of cultivation.
So, Lin Zuzu said obediently: "Uncle Zhang is good, Uncle Wang is good." β
"The little girl is very powerful." Wang Shu praised.
"Come on, come on, whatever you want to eat, I'll have a treat." The rough Zhang Hu enthusiastically asked the store for two menus and handed them to them.
"Thank you, uncle."
Bai Jiu remembered that she had asked herself about the demon clan near her home before, so he brought her to this dinner.
"Xiao Zhang is a tiger demon, sixty years of cultivation, a young boy of the tiger clan. Xiao Wang is a tree spirit, it should be one hundred and twenty years. "Compared with the three-hundred-year-old fox demon, they are indeed juniors.
Lin Zuzu was really not used to Bai Jiu talking like this, so he quickly nodded and lowered his eyes to look at the menu.
"Let's just say it, what's the matter with coming to me today?" Bai Jiu got straight to the point with the two.
Zhang Hu smiled "hehe" and said: "Bai Shao......"
Bai Jiu suddenly coughed twice.
Zhang Hu suddenly understood, and changed his words: "Bai Gongzi is proficient in illusion and good at transformation, isn't this ...... It's time for me to grow old again. β
"yes, I remember. It's a trivial matter, it's hard for you to be so infatuated. β
Bai Jiu smiled and turned his head slightly to look at the girl who was ordering.
Zhang Hu's reason for leaving the demon world is very simple.
He fell in love with a human beingβa human who grew old.
He even chose the same surname as the woman.
He is a tiger demon known for his physique and strength, and knows little about subtle shapeshifting and illusion.
When he first started chasing Sister-in-law Zhang, he either hid his ears or his tail every day, which was simply embarrassing.
Until thirty years ago, he met Shirakyu.
Under the ignition of the fox demon, he was finally able to transform into a complete human form. It's just that his appearance is still as rough as a tiger.
But fortunately, Sister-in-law Zhang seems to like this one.
finally being able to be with his lover, Zhang Hu was naturally overjoyed, but the troubles came again-
People get old!
Of course, he didn't feel any different at all about Sister-in-law Zhang, who had wrinkles and a fat figure.
She will always be the little girl in his heart.
It's just that how to make himself age just right, it's sad for him. He accidentally knew that Bai Jiu had recently appeared in District 11 of Rize City......
No, he came here without stopping.
β¦β¦
After being full of wine and food, looking at Zhang Hu's back as he was taken away by Sister-in-law Zhang's ears, Wang Shu also arched his hand to say goodbye.
"Let's go, let's go home." Lin Zuzu hiccuped and touched his stomach.
"I'll send you back."
"What about you?" Lin Zuzu noticed the meaning of his words.
"I'm here to say goodbye to you."
"Are you leaving?"
Although Lin Zuzu didn't think that he would stay here for a long time at first, at most he stayed until he was sure that he really wouldn't betray his information.
"Well, I'll be back in about three or five days after a long trip."
"I see." Lin Zuzu nodded.
"Original? So what was your initial thought? β
"I thought...... You're leaving. Lin Zuzu began to walk home.
"Rest assured, your bed is very comfortable. And if you're going to blackmail me, you'll have to let me live back to basics. β
Bai Jiu chuckled and followed.
"After a while, I'll have to collect rent."
"What a cunning human, can I exchange the bounty task for it?"
"Okay."
