[Get ready to pull an all-nighter tonight! The earliest I can update will be after three in the morning. Don't wait. I have prepared two coffee capsules.]
"Septimus, I saw Mr. Chen just now …"
Vole peeked his head into the room with a strange expression on his face.
"Didn't I tell you to call me Marcie?"
"Marcie", who was Septimus, was sitting on the bed thinking about something. He raised his head impatiently and asked, "What did he want?"
"Yes, yes!" Field Mouse walked into the house and said with a cautious smile, "Well, he seems to have drunk a lot. His face is red … I don't know if he saw you somewhere, but he suddenly stopped me and kept asking me if I had seen Marcie. I think he seems to be interested in something."
Septimus raised his head in surprise when he heard the overtone that all men could understand.
"So that's what he was thinking that day," he muttered to himself.
When he went to look for Chen Jinfeng that day, he only tried to sound him out with his words. He had a vague idea of what Chen Jinfeng had done, but Chen Jinfeng naturally wouldn't reveal his dirty secrets.
Septimus didn't tell anyone the reason behind Marcie's disappearance and how he could bring her back. Therefore, after the two of them transformed, he had been avoiding Chen Jinfeng very carefully. He was afraid that there would be more complications. Now that Marcie had suddenly appeared, he really felt that it was difficult to handle.
"Forget it. Just ignore him," Septimus said after thinking for a long time.
Vole's face immediately turned bitter.
When he left the infirmary, Lin Sanjiu snapped her fingers and made the mantis on his shoulder invisible. Even though he could no longer see the mantis, he could still feel the pair of cold scythes moving up and down along with his Adam's apple. The woman with the surname Lin had made it very clear that since Vole Mouse was so cunning, he would have to think of a way to get Septimus to summon the real Marcie. Otherwise, he would have to give up his visa and hand him over to Hei Zeji.
"No, I can't! Cadre Chen drank quite a bit and kept mentioning Marcie. He even said that he would come over later! It wasn't easy for me to get rid of him. You'd better think of something. "The field mouse said in a panic.
"Damn it!" Septimus felt a headache coming on and cursed under his breath. It was not a good idea to offend Chen Jinfeng now … He did want to go by himself, but he knew nothing about relationships between men and women. He was worried that Chen Jinfeng would notice something was wrong. After thinking for a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, let's coax Marcie! He can't get his hands on it anyway … "
Before Vole could understand what Feng Yu meant, Septimus had already stood up. With a wave of his hand, the two of them were deformed.
Field Mouse, who had returned to his original state, looked at his short and chubby hands and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Septimus stared at him coldly for a moment and said in his usual calm tone, "I will call Marcie out now. During this period of time, you have to keep a close eye on Lin Sanjiu. You mustn't let Lin Sanjiu get close to her. Do you understand? "
The field mouse nodded repeatedly.
"She knows you, and it won't be good to see you. You can leave now! "
Once Feng Yu said that, Vole felt as if he had been pardoned. He turned around and walked out of the room. Septimus looked at him again, but he didn't say anything.
Seeing that the curtain at the door had fallen and Vole's footsteps had faded away, Septimus closed his eyes. After a while, veins popped up on his forehead. Suddenly, his body blurred like in an old movie. Then, a figure fell from his body. When he found himself on the ground, he saw that it was Marcie.
Marcie still looked the same as the day she disappeared. Her fluffy red hair was standing up, her clothes were crooked, and her face was flushed from the excitement of the fight. When she saw Septimus in front of her, her eyes lit up and she cried out in surprise, "You are back? Why did you run so far away? I couldn't even maintain my form! "
"I was in danger." Septimus smiled at her. "That's why I called you out the moment I came back. Why are you like this? What happened? "
"Don't mention it," Marcie thought of Chen Jinfeng and her face turned green. "I won't let that scumbag get away with it."
She patted her face and body in disgust as if she was trying to wipe herself clean. Then, she sat on the ground, feeling a little tired.
Septimus nodded. Just when he was about to speak, he saw Marcie's mouth open. She looked at his head with a shocked expression. Just as he was about to look up, he felt a gust of wind behind his head. Then, he felt a sharp pain and lost consciousness.
Marcie — this time, it was the real Marcie — stared at Lin Sanjiu, who had descended from the sky and knocked Septimus out with a single strike of her baton.
"What … What are you doing?" Marcie wiped her face as if she couldn't believe it. She looked at the narrow ceiling of the partition and then at Lin Sanjiu. "Why did you hit him? That's Luther's body, "Lin Sanjiu glanced at Marcie.
Lin Sanjiu glanced at Marcie and felt as if a huge burden had been lifted from her heart. She let out a long sigh and walked a few steps closer to Marcie. Her smile was so light that it was almost indiscernible, "... I finally let you out."
Marcie didn't understand the situation at all. She patted Lin Sanjiu's shoulder and looked at Hu Changzai with a perplexed expression. Hu Changzai entered the room cautiously and greeted Marcie. Then, he quickly tied up the unconscious Septimus.
Lin Sanjiu spent about half an hour telling Marcie everything that had happened over the past few days.
When she finished, Marcie was stunned for a long time. Her gaze never left Septimus. After a while, she sighed, "So that's what happened … It has been five days."
"I know … The 12 of you have been together for a long time. You must be feeling terrible after what Septimus did to you …" Lin Sanjiu was afraid that Marcie would be upset, so she quickly comforted her.
"No, I'm fine. You don't have to comfort me." Unexpectedly, Marcie smiled at Lin Sanjiu. Even though she was trying to comfort her, she didn't look depressed. "Xiao Jiu, I just thought of something. I need to confirm it now. Hand Septimus over to me. I will definitely look for you later. Is that okay? "
Lin Sanjiu raised her head hesitantly.
Marcie's clear green eyes were glistening with tears, "When I was summoned back, my ability leveled up, so you don't have to worry about me … Also, thank you," she said sincerely.
Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment and nodded, "I will hand him over to you. Be careful."
After that, she gestured to Hu Changzai and the two of them left the room silently, leaving Marcie and Septimus alone.
Almost everyone in the basement had left. The sound of footsteps echoed in the spacious basement, spreading far and wide.
Just as Lin Sanjiu came up the stairs, an anxious face popped out, "Sister Lin, how is it? Can you retract it now? "It was Vole.
His neck was tilted unnaturally to the other side, as if he could avoid the giant praying mantis on his right shoulder.
Lin Sanjiu glanced at him.
That praying mantis was the effect of the Pygmalion Choker. It had already lost its effect after five minutes. That was the reason why Lin Sanjiu had made the praying mantis invisible. This time, Hu Changzai had described to Lin Sanjiu a "summoning insect with a terrifying form that could turn invisible". He did not mention its combat ability. If Vole was braver and fought back, he would have realized that the praying mantis was a paper tiger.
"You cherish your life too much," Lin Sanjiu sighed. "You cherish your life too much, so you don't care about anything else …"
As she said that, she extended her hand to Vole's shoulder.
Vole moved closer to Lin Sanjiu gratefully. Before he could say a word of thanks, Lin Sanjiu knocked out the second person today with a karate chop.
"What do you plan to do with him?" Hu Changzai was shocked. He pushed his glasses up and asked.
