Fangzheng was a man of his word. Since he had promised Kurita Kikyo, he would not tell her secret to his classmates.
So …
"Wow … I didn't expect there to be such an evil human."
He told the Jade Star about it.
"Right? Although there are many kinds of humans, this kind of person is really rare."
While carrying the Jade Star, Fangzheng walked on the street at night while looking around. Of course, he wasn't stupid enough to deal with an unknown monster alone. However, Zhen Hong slept at nine every day, so Hiddenberry had to be by her side and Lapis was responsible for looking after the house.
So, it seemed that only the Jade Star was willing to accompany him on a night stroll.
Of course, it was obviously abnormal for a young man to stroll on the street late at night with a puppet in his arms, but if he was discovered, he could just say that he was a puppeteer.
"This kind of human needs to be taught a lesson. Don't you think it's too much?"
"I think it's okay. After all, there are all kinds of people in this world. It's just that this kind of person is really rare."
While saying that, Fangzheng looked at his watch.
"Well, we should go home. It seems like we didn't get anything today."
"I want to eat ice cream!"
"Aren't you afraid of eating something bad … Oh, by the way, aren't you afraid of eating something bad?"
Hearing the Jade Star's request, Fangzheng shrugged. He carried the Jade Star in one hand and the box in the other and walked to the nearby convenience store.
However, just as Fangzheng was about to reach the door of the convenience store, the Jade Star suddenly spoke.
"Hey, human, are you looking for a suspicious person?"
"Yeah?"
"Isn't that suspicious enough?"
While saying that, the Jade Star stretched out her hand and pointed forward. Fangzheng looked in the direction she was pointing and was speechless.
"Hmm, it's really suspicious …"
Under the illumination of the white signboard light, a beautiful silver-haired girl was sitting at the door of the convenience store. She was wearing a purple-and-white striped dress, and she was wearing something that looked like western armor on the outside. Judging from its metallic luster, it wasn't a cosplay prop, but a real thing.
At this moment, the silver-haired girl was sitting there in a daze. However, even though there was such an eye-catching person next to them, the people going in and out of the convenience store seemed to turn a blind eye to him. It was as if there was nothing there at all.
If one were to say that it was suspicious, it was indeed suspicious enough.
At this moment, as if sensing Fangzheng's gaze, the silver-haired girl lifted her head and looked in his direction. On the other hand, Fangzheng carried the Emerald Star Stone, walked up to the silver-haired young lady, and lowered his body to look at her.
"Hello, little sister. It's so late. Why are you here alone?"
"…"
However, in the face of Fangzheng's question, the silver-haired young lady turned her head away and refused to answer.
"What a strange fellow."
Seeing this scene, Jade Star couldn't help but complain, and Fangzheng knocked her little head.
"It's not your place to say that."
"Ugh, what are you doing? You're just a human …!"
Jade Star, who was knocked on the head by Fangzheng, waved her hands and feet unwillingly to resist, but Fangzheng reached out to hold her down.
"Idiot, we're in front of other people now. Can't you just put on an act?"
"The one who calls other people stupid is the one who's stupid!"
The Jade Star Stone turned around angrily, crossed its arms, and looked very unhappy. Fangzheng sighed helplessly and stood up.
"Okay, okay, I'll buy you some ice cream, right …?"
While saying that, Fangzheng walked into the convenience store with Jade Star and bought some snacks and ice cream. When they walked out of the convenience store again, they found that the silver-haired girl was still sitting there, motionless.
Could she be an Earthbound Spirit?
Thinking of this, Fangzheng sat next to the silver-haired girl, took out a box of ice cream from the plastic bag of the convenience store, and handed it to the silver-haired girl.
"Do you want some?"
"… …."
Hearing Fangzheng's voice, the silver-haired girl turned her head again. She stared silently at Fangzheng and Jade Star, who was holding the ice cream and eating it. After a moment of silence, she reached out and took the snack from Fangzheng's hand.
"Do you live near here?"
"You don't look like a local. Are you a foreigner?"
"Are you lost?"
“Hello，Can
English？”
However, no matter how Fangzheng tried to talk to the silver-haired girl, the latter did not say a word. She just silently finished the ice cream that Fangzheng handed to her. Looking at the cream on the corner of the silver-haired girl's mouth, Fangzheng took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the corner of the girl's mouth.
"… …!?"
This sudden action gave the silver-haired girl a fright. She widened her eyes in surprise as she stared at Fangzheng. Although she didn't say anything, her eyes had already revealed her emotions.
"Sorry, I got used to it."
At that moment, Fangzheng realized that something was wrong. After all, this was basically how he took care of the other children at home. Like Megan, Eve, Lapis, Fledgling … and the three little ones with little wings. It could be said that Fangzheng was already used to it. The silver-haired girl in front of him looked only a few years older than Megan and the others, so Fangzheng subconsciously treated her like a child.
However, even after hearing Fangzheng's apology, the silver-haired girl did not say a word. On the contrary, Fangzheng saw her reach out her hand and take out a notebook and a ballpoint pen from her pocket. She wrote something on it and showed it to Fangzheng.
[Who are you?]
"You don't know how to speak?"
Looking at the notebook in front of him, Fangzheng was also stunned for a moment.
He then replied, "I'm just a passerby."
[A passerby with a talking doll?]
The silver-haired girl stared at the Jadeite Stone, while the latter turned a blind eye to it and was immersed in the joy of tasting delicious food.
"There are all kinds of passersby … For example, you're very strange in my eyes. I've never seen a girl wearing such an outfit in front of a convenience store …"
Just like that, Fangzheng and the silver-haired girl used this special method to chat at the entrance of the convenience store. The silver-haired girl didn't say a word and only responded briefly with a note. As for Fangzheng, he chatted with her about all sorts of things. It had to be said that although the silver-haired girl looked very reticent on the surface, she was in fact rather talkative.
However, after looking at the time on his cell phone again, Fangzheng had no choice but to stand up.
"It's getting late, I should go. You really don't need help?"
"…"
The silver-haired girl shook her head silently.
"Well, it's not safe here at night. Be careful when you're alone."
Hearing Fangzheng's words, the silver-haired girl raised the notebook in her hand. Fangzheng smiled and waved his hand, then turned around and walked back home with the Jadeite Stone in his arms.
"Isn't that girl very strange?"
"She's a little strange, but she shouldn't be a criminal. I don't feel that kind of bloody aura from her."
"Hmm … But I feel that the aura around her is a little strange …"
"The aura of death, perhaps you're not too familiar with it."
Fangzheng, of course, understood what the Jadeite Stone was talking about. He could feel the deep aura of death around the silver-haired girl. Even though Fangzheng was just an ordinary person now, he could judge from experience that the girl definitely had super terrifying power.
It was just that he could not feel that kind of bloody aura from her. She did not look like a criminal at all …
"Hmm?"
Just as Fangzheng was walking through the street, he suddenly stopped and looked to the side.
"What's wrong? A human? "
Asked the Jadeite Stone curiously when she sensed Fangzheng's abnormality. Fangzheng stared at the house not far away with a serious expression.
"Look over there."
"Over there?"
The Jadeite Stone curiously raised her head and followed Fangzheng's line of sight to a house next to them. From the outside, it looked like an ordinary house. However, when the Jadeite Stone's line of sight moved to the window on the second floor, she suddenly screamed in shock. On the white curtains on the second floor, she could see a large area of scattered dark red marks. That was …
"Blood?!"
"Looks like it's right, but I don't know if it's the criminal we're looking for …"
"Ahhh —! “
However, before Fangzheng could finish his words, a sad cry suddenly came from inside. Hearing the sound, Fangzheng's expression changed.
"I'll go in and check the situation. Jadeite Stone, do as I said!"
As he spoke, Fangzheng took out his gun and quickly rushed into the house in front of him.
The door of the house in front of him was unlatched. Fangzheng quietly came to the door, pushed it open slightly, and looked inside. There was dead silence in the house, and no sound could be heard. He raised his gun and quietly walked into the entrance. Looking around, he soon found a corpse on the floor not far away and blood splattered all over the wall.
How cruel.
Looking at the corpse and the blood splattered in front of him, Fangzheng's expression sank slightly. He carefully looked forward, then decided to go upstairs to check the situation.
However, just as Fangzheng was about to go upstairs, the air suddenly became heavy.
In the blink of an eye, Fangzheng felt that he had lost control of his body, as if he was frozen in place!
What is this? Magic?!
Sensing this, Fangzheng's eyes narrowed. At the same time, he could feel a strange and thick murderous aura gradually emerging behind him. It condensed into a point, then suddenly stabbed towards his heart!
And at that moment …
"Water Dream!!"
The Jadeite Stone's voice suddenly sounded, breaking the originally frozen air. The next moment, thick vines broke through the floor and formed a barrier, blocking behind Fangzheng!
