Chapter 39: Du Yuesong's Promise
Early this morning, Yu Feng had just gotten up from bed when he was invited by the people sent by Du Yuesong. Full of worry and apprehension, Yu Feng followed them all the way to the office building on the east side of the square.
Entering Du Yuesong's room, Yu Feng didn't have the heart to look around, he just saw Du Yuesong sitting on a chair by the window, and he didn't react at all to the actions of several people entering the room, as if he didn't know that someone had come in. And in front of him, a familiar philosopher's stone pressed a few pieces of paper on the windowsill. As the breeze came from the window, the paper under the stone was also swaying in the wind.
Du Yuesong waved his hand to signal his subordinates to retreat, then turned to face Yu Feng, and stretched out his hand to signal him to sit on a chair in front of him.
Yu Feng obediently sat on the chair, waiting for the other party to ask. At this time, there were only the two of them left in the room, and Du Yuesong reached out and picked up the philosopher's stone and the paper pressed under it from the windowsill, and his eyes stopped at the paper.
"Yu Feng comes from Pingsang, a small village at the foot of the Xilingsala Mountains. What Du Yuesong was holding in his hand seemed to be some information about Yu Feng, and after Yu Feng heard it, he just nodded. "Logically speaking, children who come out of such villages basically do not have the financial resources to own this kind of stone, nor do they have the ability to control it. Before you walked out of the mountain village, you should have been an ordinary teenager who knew nothing, and you had only been here for a few days, and you were not capable of doing such a thing. But I'd like to hear about the 'Ice' Philosopher's Stone that you got from you. ”
Du Yuesong seemed to have understood Yu Feng in advance, he felt that this child in the mountains really had no reason and no ability to do these things, but he felt that this magic stone was very strange, so he asked in detail.
Facing Du Yuesong, Yu Feng didn't dare to slack off, and told him carefully all the things he had experienced that day.
After understanding the situation, Du Yuesong handed the magic stone to Yu Feng, "Look at this stone, there is no debris and dust on the textured stone holes on it, it doesn't look like it was discarded a long time ago." You recall, there was dust on him when you picked him up. Du Yuesong looked very carefully, and he had never looked at these glories in detail.
Referring to this, Yu Feng took the magic stone and looked at it carefully. It is true that if it has been discarded for a long time, there must be dust in the texture on it, but on closer inspection, it is unusually clean. Recalling that day, he reached out to pick up the Philosopher's Stone, and when he touched it, a chill invaded, which made him shrink his hand. At that time, I habitually glanced at my hands, but they were very clean and free of dust. I didn't pay attention to it at the time, but now that I think about it, this magic stone is so clean in the wilderness, which means that it has not been discarded for a long time.
And it didn't take long for an accident to happen, which shows that the person who discarded the magic stone was either the one who cast a spell to kill Xi Pengqing, or the person who knew the inside story of the matter and got rid of his suspicion in advance. At that time, Yu Feng picked up the stone, and he didn't think much about the joy in his heart, but now under Du Yuesong's reminder, he suddenly thought of it again.
Yu Feng told Du Yuesong his memories and thoughts again, and Du Yuesong smiled when he heard this, "It seems that you are not stupid, but your thinking was scattered by a little joy." But since you have come to me today, you must not come in vain, you are still a suspicious person, and you must not wander around after you go back, and you must not tell others what we have talked about. In addition, you can take this magic stone back, if you can find clues from here, after the matter is over, this magic stone will be yours. If you can find the answer to this on your own, I have another reward. ”
Yu Feng understood what Du Yuesong meant, he wanted to use himself to help him solve this matter in secret, but he had no friends and no strength here, and if he wanted to feel this matter, I am afraid it would be difficult. However, Du Yuesong's attitude towards him made him understand that he would be fine, just to see if he could contribute to it.
That is the end of today's discussion. Du Yuesong made this decision, firstly, because after his understanding, Yu Feng is quite honest, and even if he can't complete some tasks and can't help himself, it won't be counterproductive. The second is that he feels that the magic stone in Yu Feng's hand is strange, and it must have something to do with it. Releasing Yu Feng and this magic stone may give you some favorable clues.
Back in his room, Yu Feng placed the Philosopher's Stone on the table and sat on the side and looked at it blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Yin Xin knocked on the door and entered, and when he came in, he saw the Philosopher's Stone on the table at first glance. "I heard that Du Yuesong talked to you, how is it, is there anything wrong. Didn't this magic stone say that it was going to be handed over, why is it still here? ”
Yu Feng was about to speak, but he thought of Du Yuesong's explanation to himself, and it was better for him to be honest before the matter was over. "Du Yuesong said that the stone is on me, no matter where it comes from, it is suspicious. Put it here for me first, and then talk about the Fashi after the matter is clarified. Yu Feng still trusted Yin Xin, but it was hard to guarantee that Yin Xin also had someone he could trust and would tell them, so he didn't tell him the truth.
"Actually, I thought it would be okay to keep it, and I wanted you to throw it away, but I didn't expect it to be the same when I took the initiative to turn it in. Yin Xin said and shook his head.
"If I throw it away, it will be even more intelligible if someone finds it, but fortunately, it is only a suspicion now, and all the people who hold this magic stone are on the blacklist. ”
Yin Xin snorted disdainfully, "The person who really uses it to kill Xi Pengqing will definitely not keep it in his hand." Yin Xin stayed in the house for a while, and felt that Yu Feng didn't seem to have any intention of talking to him more, so he went out with interest. Standing outside the door, he thought for a moment, did not go back to the room, but walked towards Xing Xuan's room.
After Yin Xin left, Xing Xuan came over again and asked some similar questions, and Yu Feng's answer was similar, without revealing Du Yuesong's meaning to him.
After this conversation, Yu Feng's life returned to peace, except for the extra magic stone by his side. Du Yuesong is constantly investigating the matter, he has searched Xishan more than once, and he has been talking to people one after another, but no one knows how much progress he has made.
In the bulletin board on the side of the square, there is new information about the investigation every day, and in the list of suspected people who are publicized, there is a gloomy wind. After Yu Feng saw it, he was naturally a little uncomfortable. He saw Aisin's name in addition to himself on it. Xing Xuan had mentioned that Ai Xin had bought an "Ice Domain" Magic Stone in Colin Town, so it was not surprising that he was included in the scope of the investigation.
On the bulletin board, it is also written which people have the "Ice Domain" Magic Stone that has been unlocked, and he and Aesin belong to the same category. Seeing such a marking, Yu Feng, who didn't care much about it, suddenly discovered some situations.
Eshin's Philosopher's Stone was newly bought, and if he had used such a large amount of magic, he would not have escaped the eyes of everyone. Therefore, Aixin's Philosopher's Stone should be in an unsealed state, and the results of the investigation at this time are obviously not like this. It seems that the Ice Magic Stone that killed Xi Pengqing is most likely this one of Ai Xin's.
If you want to figure out this problem, you still have to find Xing Xuan first, he has been very close to Ai Xin recently, and he will definitely know something.
With this idea, that night, Yu Feng prepared to go to Xing Xuan to inquire. But that night, Xing Xuan came back with Ai Xin, Ge Yin, and another teenager Yu Feng didn't know. When Yu Feng came to the door of Xing Xuan's room, he heard the voices of several people inside.
"Hmph, I really didn't expect that, unconsciously, I was also on the blacklist, if my parents knew about this, they would definitely question me. Aixin's voice came first, mixed with a hint of dissatisfaction.
"It's really a coincidence, that Xi Pengqing was killed by this spell at this time, Du Yuesong just doesn't want to be difficult for you, I'm afraid it won't work. But I still believe you, on weekdays, we rarely have anything to do with that Xi Pengqing, and no one can commit such a ruthless move. At this time, Xing Xuan's voice.
On the platform outside the door, there are always people passing by, and Yu Feng is inconvenient to eavesdrop here, so he knocks on the door. The chatter in the room stopped, and Xing Xuan opened the door and saw that it was Yu Feng, so he let him into the room.
In the room, in addition to the previous acquaintance between Aesin and Gein Yufeng, there was also a thin man sitting on a chair. Xing Xuan remembered that the two had met for the first time, so he introduced it slightly. This man's name was Fang Wei, and he was often with Ai Xin's group.
Yu Feng didn't come here to get to know him, so he didn't pay much attention to it, said hello to each other, and stopped talking. Ai Xin saw that it was Yu Feng coming, he didn't like Yu Feng very much, but now his mind was not here, and he didn't talk much, just nodded his head.
There was no place to sit in the house, and Yu Feng just stood aside. "Aixin, I didn't expect the two of us to be on the same team now, it's my bad life, and I picked up a magic stone at this time. Why were you investigated by Du Yuesong? ”
Hearing Yu Feng say this, Fang Wei on the side seemed to be taken aback, and inadvertently turned his head to look at Yu Feng. And Ai Xin showed a helpless expression, shook his head alone, and did not speak. Although he felt some sympathy with Yu Feng now, he didn't need to say anything to him.
"Brother Yu said that he happened to pick up a magic stone, can I take a look?" Fang Wei saw that no one responded on the side, and he couldn't help but speak first.
In the past few days, including Bai Ya Bailing, some people who know Yu Feng are very interested in his magic stone, and it is normal for Fang Wei to want to take a look. Yu Feng took out the magic stone he had been carrying with him for the past few days, handed it to Fang Wei on the side, and then stared at his actions with his spare eyes.
Fang Wei took the Philosopher's Stone and looked at it carefully, and then a surprised expression flashed on his face. "This is indeed the Philosopher's Stone of the 'Ice Domain' spell, and I can feel the cold power within it. He quickly returned the magic stone to Yu Feng, then turned to look to the side and stopped talking.
Fang Wei's performance seemed to be a little abnormal, and there were not a few people who were surprised if they saw the Fa Shi, but he was the only one who tried his best to hide it. Fang Wei turned around and seemed to be thinking about something, but after Yu Feng saw it, he didn't pay attention to it anymore.
The atmosphere was a little dull, and Ge Yin laughed twice, "It seems that everyone is not going well, so don't mention these today." Things will always be figured out, and everyone will be fine. Ge Yin glanced at Xing Xuan as he spoke, and motioned for him to say a few words to ease the atmosphere in the room.
But before Xing Xuan could speak, Ai Xin stood up, "That makes sense, if I let me know who did this, I will never let him go." I'll go back and rest first, so that's all for today. Without waiting for the crowd to react, Aisin took the lead and walked outside the house.
Ge Yin immediately followed and waved to Xing Xuan Yufeng. He patted Fang Wei, who was still thinking about something, and walked out of the room. Fang Wei came back to his senses and walked out of the room, while Xing Xuan got up to see him off.
Yu Feng didn't go out, but instead sat on the bed after everyone left, waiting for Xing Xuan to return.
