"Ah!" Xiong Ji screamed and fell into the river.
At this moment, Feng Bujue and Wang Tanzhi both gasped. They were afraid that Xiong Ji would be washed away by the water or drown … If that happened, they wouldn't be able to complete the main quest.
"Ah … Hah … Hah …" Fortunately, Xiong Ji's head popped out of the water and he started to breathe heavily.
As the river wasn't very deep and the current wasn't very fast, Xiong Ji floated up again after a few moments.
"That scared me …" Xiao Tan said as he wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"Phew …" Brother Jue also sighed in relief and said, "Thankfully, he woke up in time … I almost kicked you off the cliff earlier …"
"Hey … Why did you do that?" Xiao Tan asked.
"Of course it was to send you down to save someone," Feng Bujue replied.
"Let's not talk about whether or not the system would let you kick me …" Xiao Tan narrowed his eyes and looked at Brother Jue. "If I want to save someone … I usually jump down myself!"
"Don't you know that cats are afraid of water?" Feng Bujue said confidently.
"You make it sound like falcons can swim …" Xiao Tan's mouth twitched. "Wait … Anyway, bears are animals that can swim! What are we worried about? "
"Eh? Yeah … "Feng Bujue touched his chin and said," Because of its abnormal attributes, we've neglected the basic characteristics of 'animal anthropomorphism' … "
While the two were talking, Miao Mei ran over from afar. At this time, Xiong Ji had also climbed out of the river.
"Ah … That was close, I thought I was going to die …" Xiong Ji knelt on the grass as the river water dripped from his body, making him look like a mess.
The next second, he suddenly thought of something. "Ah! My backpack … "He turned back to look at the river." Erm … it has been washed away by the river … "
At this moment, Xiong Ji's face was full of grievances and tears were dripping from the corners of his eyes. He looked very pitiful.
"Forget it, Xiong Ji Kun." Xiao Tan was still naive and kind. He couldn't bear to see this scene, so he went forward to comfort her. "Anyway, it's just a sticky schoolbag … It's fine as long as you're fine."
"Tu Mei Chan, you've gone too far." Even Miao Mei said to Tu Mei, "Even if my house was robbed, the thief may not necessarily be Xiong Ji Kun."
"It's okay … Miao Mei -chan." Xiong Ji's hands were on the ground as he maintained the standard ORZ position. He said in a bitter tone, "It's all because of my bad behavior, so I reap what I sow …"
In this atmosphere, Tu Mei was a little embarrassed. Her eyes were no longer sharp when she looked at Xiong Ji. On the contrary, there was a hint of guilt.
"Erm …" Tu Mei hesitated for a moment and said, "I went too far. I'm sorry, Xiong Ji Kun. " As she said this, she took out a handkerchief from her pocket and handed it to him. "Your fur is soaked, use this handkerchief to wipe it."
"Eh?" However, at this moment, Xiong Ji's expression returned to its wretched state without any warning. His tone also became a little arrogant. "Ah, that … No need …" Before he finished speaking, he had already stood up and took out two socks from the pockets of his pants. "If you want to wipe the water … I have better things ~ Huhuhuhu ~"
Silence descended upon them.
Under the gaze of the four pairs of sharp, surprised, and annoyed eyes, Xiong Ji nonchalantly wiped his face with a pair of pink socks embroidered with a tulip pattern. It was obviously worn by someone else …
[Main mission progress changed]
[Three days later, at school.]
Before Brother Bujue and Xiao Tan could recover from the state of speechlessness, the mission notification and transfer came one after another.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them went from the suburbs to the classroom.
They opened the mission panel and saw that Xiong Ji's number of arrests had jumped to "2".
"What's going on?" Xiao Tan was shocked again. "Tu Mei hasn't even called the police yet … Xiong Ji is already arrested?"
On the other hand, Feng Bujue's reaction was different from Xiao Tan's, or rather … his reaction was different from most people's.
When faced with this kind of sudden and unexpected change, the first thing he usually did was not to "ask others" but to "ask himself".
Then, he would try to use his own knowledge, reasoning, and imagination to answer the question. Even if he could not come to a definite conclusion, he could at least come up with a few reasonable and possible speculations.
And the above process usually took less than three seconds in Feng Bujue's mind.
Therefore, when Xiao Tan asked the question, Brother Jue could usually give an answer.
"This case … is also a good example." Feng Bujue turned his head to the left and said to Xiao Tan, who was sitting next to him, "It explained to us that in this scenario … 'Xiong Ji's second form of arrest.'" As he spoke, he looked around and quickly found Xiong Ji and Tu Mei at the other end of the classroom. "Hmm … we can't be careless …"
"The second form of arrest?" Xiao Tan repeated the key part of Brother Jue's words and then asked, "Like just now … the moment Xiong Ji showed the evidence of his crime, he was immediately treated as an arrest and immediately moved to another location?"
"Yes, that's it," Feng Bujue said.
"How did this happen?" Xiao Tan asked, "Is it related to the side mission?" He looked worried. "If all the missions do this … we'll be in trouble …"
"It has nothing to do with the side mission." Feng Bujue said, "The key factor … is still you and me …" He thought about it for two seconds and explained, "If you want an example … the few main events that we encountered earlier were actually just 'training stages'. They were arranged by the system to familiarize us with the basic gameplay of this scenario … In those events, until the police put Xiong Ji in the police car and took him away from the crime scene … we were able to find a way to reverse the situation. " He paused for half a second. "But after that incident, I'm afraid the situation will change … At this stage, as long as Xiong Ji successfully makes that kind of 'confession', the system will announce his' arrest ', and the case will be closed."
"In other words …" Xiao Tan said thoughtfully, "From now on, waiting for Tu Mei to call the police to change her mind … won't work anymore. We have to stop Xiong Ji before he turns his intention into action and nip it in the bud. Once he does, it will be too late for us to cover it up. "
"Yes," Feng Bujue replied.
"That's too difficult!" Xiao Tan said, "This guy is like a ticking time bomb, he could explode at any moment. We can't read his mind, so how can we …"
"There are hints." Feng Bujue interrupted Xiao Tan's complaint and gave a constructive response. "For example, in the case earlier … from the transfer to Xiong Ji's exposure, we received more than one hint." He raised his cat finger and said, "First, when he appeared, he was wearing a bra and said the worst lines … That was already a warning for us. Second, now that we think about it … the reason he was late was most likely because he overslept because he went out to steal something the night before. Also, when Miao Mei said that her socks were stolen, we should have thought of it … The item must be on Xiong Ji. Even if it wasn't in his pants pocket, it must be somewhere else, such as stuffing it in his mouth, or clamping it in the [Beep — —] door. " He sighed. "Sigh … That's why I said we were too careless … After all the previous incidents, we shouldn't have had any illusions about Xiong Ji … In this regard, we are not as good as Tu Mei …"
"Hmm … Now that you mention it …" Xiao Tan said, "we did have a chance to stop him before he took out the socks …"
"Anyway, the following cases will be like this," Feng Bujue said, "we have to …"
"Meow …" At this time, Miao Mei -chan's Japanese screech sounded again, interrupting their conversation.
The two of them looked at each other and sighed. Then, they ran towards the direction of the shout ….
