In short, since this matter had nothing to do with the mirror world, Xu Shenxing let the girl go back to her room and continue watching her Qing Dynasty drama.
"Where's Xingyan?" Xu Shenxing realized that he hadn't seen a certain person.
So he asked Mo Li, who had just gone to call for her.
The little girl shook her head, then made a cross in front of her chest.
Well, it seemed that the only reliable person in Sakura Apartments, Xingyan A Dream, wasn't at home.
Xu Shenxing asked for the girl's current location through a text message, then put away his phone and stood up.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Zhengyi was confused.
"Xingyan is at the business district. She's shopping with Chiyuketsu. Let's go there to find them."
"Hey... isn't that girl a sword fairy? Can't you just fly back with a whoosh? "Xiao Zhengyi grumbled lazily.
"It's not impossible, but tomorrow you'll probably be running back and forth all day to erase the memories of the witnesses."
Xu Shenxing glanced at him, then said, "Of course, the bigger reason is that I don't want to drag Chiyuketsu into supernatural events."
"You've already dragged so many people into it, why are you still pretending to be a lolicon..."
Xiao Zhengyi muttered in a low voice, "You know, my family is still in a state where demons are dancing wildly."
"No, that has nothing to do with me, right?" Xu Shenxing casually retorted.
To be precise, the mastermind behind the night of a hundred ghosts in Xiao Zhengyi's house was a certain director of the Super Administrative Office who had already resigned...
"Damn, those guys used to fight for themselves. Although it was a bit noisy, it was still within an acceptable range. But recently, their social structure has developed into the primary stage of socialism. Can you believe it?" Xiao Zhengyi wanted to cry, but no tears came out, "Damn it, now I have to listen to the sofa, chair, and bed murmuring 'Basic Marxist Principles' in my ear every day when I go home..."
"Why does your furniture know Marxist Principles?" Xu Shenxing was also quite surprised, "Do you need to memorize your own furniture to become a civil servant?!"
"Because my university's politics textbook also became intelligent!"
"…"
"Fortunately, I got rid of the Bible that I bought when I was in middle school and the King Kong Sutra that my mother brought back from the temple when she was burning incense. Otherwise, in two days, my family would have started a religious war."
"…"
Hearing the other party's tearful complaints, Xu Shenxing suddenly had a feeling that it was not easy to work for the government.
☆
When they reached the street, they found Qin Xingyan and Chiyuketsu in a dessert shop.
Xu Shenxing was amused when he saw the dessert shop. That was the place where Xiao Zhengyi met Xu Shenxing for the first time after he was demoted from a criminal police officer to a traffic police officer.
However, at that time, this shop was still a milk tea shop. Now, it seemed that the owner realized that making milk tea was not as profitable as making desserts, so he changed his business.
"Brother, Sister Mo Li, over here!"
When Chiyuketsu saw Xu Shenxing, he immediately waved his hand and greeted them.
Actually, it was not polite to speak loudly in a shop like this, but when everyone saw that it was Chiyuketsu who was speaking, they naturally turned a blind eye … If it was someone less handsome, they would probably be in a state of anger right now.
Different from before, the seating in the milk tea shop was set up like a family dining room. It was separated by boards and sofas to create a small space. In addition, there were some retro western style decorations. From the looks of it, this dessert shop was above average.
Another thing worth mentioning was that for some reason, in the corner of the dessert shop, there was an entertainment corner for children to play in.
Thus, under Xu Shenxing's instructions, Mo Li took Chiyuketsu, who had finished eating desserts, to play there.
After Chiyuketsu left, they began to talk about serious matters.
In short, Xiao Zhengyi told the whole story to Qin Xingyan in a low voice.
After reading the information, Qin Xingyan looked at Xu Shenxing with some doubts in his eyes.
She probably thought of the Mirror World at the first possible moment.
So Xu Shenxing shook his head and said, "I've confirmed it, this has nothing to do with Yue Zhengjing."
After hearing Xu Shenxing's words, the girl lowered her head and began to think again.
After a while, she seemed to have sorted out her words. With a flick of her index finger, she set up a small soundproof barrier around them and began to speak.
"Actually, it's not difficult to meet the condition of 'not being seen by mortals' … As far as I know, some monsters are born with the ability to become invisible, such as Bi 'an, Tian Di, Chuan Ying, etc … But I don't think there are any monsters that eat humans with this talent."
The girl said with a serious face, "But the problem is, without this talent, it doesn't mean that it can't be done. In fact, in the category of currently recognized demon techniques, there are many types of camouflage techniques. For example … "
Qin Xingyan pulled a leaf from a potted plant next to his seat and put it on his head.
"Huh? Where is she? "
Suddenly, Xiao Zhengyi couldn't see the girl's figure.
"Isn't she just sitting there?"
Xu Shenxing said with some doubts.
"It really doesn't work on senior …" Qin Xingyan took the leaf off his head with a wry smile. "This is a relatively common camouflage technique called 'One Leaf Camouflage Technique'. It's simple to cast, but because it works on others, it's easy to be seen through. It's even more useless for a talented person like senior."
"In addition to this, are there any other camouflage techniques?"
Xiao Zhengyi heard this and couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, and there are many. If it's only effective on oneself, by distorting light to hide one's figure, even if senior doesn't deliberately capture the other person's aura, you still won't be able to see the other person. " Qin Xingyan didn't hide anything and told him everything he knew. "In addition, there are many treasures that can make one invisible, but they can't be seen, so I'm not particularly clear about them, so I won't explain them one by one."
"Woah, why is there such a cruel thing in my jurisdiction … I hate it just thinking about it." Xiao Zhengyi couldn't help but lie on the table and complain.
"Don't worry, Old Xiao." Xu Shenxing confidently gave Xiao Zhengyi a thumbs up.
"Old Xu, I knew you would have a way!"
Xiao Zhengyi immediately came back to life and looked at Xu Shenxing expectantly.
"I'm not very good at sensing! Even if the other person is standing in front of me, I'm confident that I won't be able to sense them! "
"Hey, what's the point of exposing yourself like this! There's nothing to be proud of! "
"I'm just kidding. Even if I'm not good at detection and sensing, Jiang Jin is an expert in this area."
Xu Shenxing smiled. "I'll take you to her in a bit."
"Why do I have to wait a bit?" Xiao Zhengyi was puzzled.
"Because it's lunchtime!" Xu Shenxing showed a cheerful smile, then waved to the waiter. "Give me a luxurious black-haired wagyu wood steak, a bunch of raw watermelon juice, and a portion of all these side dishes … Put it on this gentleman's bill."
"Oh, oh, oh, my overtime allowance —!!!"
Xiao Zhengyi held his head and pretended to be in pain.
But under his arms, his face showed an expression of 'plan OK'.
Since he wanted to ask Xu Shenxing for help, this level of spending was expected. But this level of spending was not enough to defeat him!
But things weren't as simple as he thought.
"I don't want this, I want everything else."
Mo Li, who had brought Chiyuketsu back at some point, skillfully ordered the order.
"Put it on this gentleman's bill as well." Xu Shenxing said tacitly.
"… Waiter, can I swipe my card in this restaurant?"
☆
Rather than saying that his wallet was bleeding profusely, it was more accurate to say that the pale Xiao Zhengyi was brought by Xu Shenxing to Jiang Jin University's back mountain.
There was only one reason for coming here, and that was to find the person who was suspected to be the most well-informed person in Jiang Jin.
Or rather, God.
"Tu Di, I have something to ask of you ~"
"Wahhh —! Don't come here again! " Tu Di, who had been traumatized by Xu Shenxing at the school anniversary celebration, roared helplessly: "I still have things to do!"
"Playing daily quests? Doing event quests? Getting the first victory? "Xu Shenxing guessed.
"Am I just an otaku in your heart?"
"…"
Although he didn't say anything, Xu Shenxing's face clearly had the words' Isn't that so? 'written all over it.
"I'm Jiang Jin's Tu Di, I'm sure I have something important to do …" The mushroom-haired girl sighed helplessly.
And for some reason, the girl's face did look tired, and there were even some faint dark circles under her eyes. It wasn't clear if she really had something to do, or if she was just staying up late to cultivate and play games.
"Anyway, we're here to talk to you about something serious." Xu Shenxing wiped off the question mark that Jasmine had written on his face with her magic. "Do you know about the recent murder case in the city that's related to a supernatural being?" he asked. "Do you know about it?"
"Probably."
Earth God Loli answered vaguely.
"If that's the case, then you should know why we're here."
Xu Shenxing continued to ask.
"… That guy is just passing by Jiang Jin. If it's not necessary, it's best not to provoke him."
After a long while, Tu Di spoke slowly.
"Listening to what you're saying … Do you know the criminal?" Xu Shenxing frowned and was a little surprised.
"I guess I know him."
Tu Di Loli obviously didn't want to cooperate this time. She stuttered and didn't have her usual straightforwardness.
"What's wrong? Do you think I can't beat that guy? "
Xu Shenxing naturally realized that something was wrong and couldn't help but ask.
"No, that guy isn't strong … Maybe you can finish him off with one punch."
Tu Di Loli looked a little helpless. "But for some reason … If you can give me a little more time, I'll help you solve the murder case."
Xu Shenxing didn't answer, but Xiao Zhengyi couldn't help it.
"Don't tell me that as a police officer, I'm going to let a murderer swagger around freely!" He turned around and walked in the direction he came from. "Since you have something to hide, then you don't have to say it. Even if I'm the only one on this case, I'll investigate it!"
