A loud shout broke the noon atmosphere of the antique store.
Dad and Chen Long, who looked tired, were startled by the voice, because the voice was very familiar to them, it was from the Black Hand Gang!
"Oh, Chen Long, Quetzalcoatl, go and protect Xiaoyu!" Dad searched for the Saints all morning and knew deeply what kind of creature his grandniece was. It was the hope of an era. The antique store exploded.
The kind that won't let anything happen to her.
Quetzalcoatl had already rushed out before his father could say anything, and his extremely fast speed caused a trace of chaos in the ocean of books.
There were clattering sounds of pages turning everywhere, showing Quetzalcoatl's nervousness.
Chen Long followed closely, but after seeing the scene outside clearly, he immediately shouted: "Wait a minute, Quetzalcoatl! You can't kill!"
Outside the door, Tru, who was wearing a bandage, was looking nervously, looking at Quetzalcoatl who looked like he was charging towards him with some fear in his eyes.
After Chen Long yelled, Quetzalcoatl's arm in the air swung at a slightly shifted angle, grazing Tru's fat cheek and hitting him.
The strong air flow made the door behind Tohru creak loudly. You can imagine the scene if this punch hit the head.
"Gudu~" Tohru swallowed. This was the first time he was so close to death.
Chen Long also breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't kill anyone. He had a very upright outlook and couldn't stand someone being killed in front of him, because he felt that it was only right to leave everything to the law.
Dad also walked out at this time, and when he saw Tru, he couldn't help but said: "Chen Long, what are you waiting for? Let Blake come and take him away!"
Chen Long: "Oh, okay..."
"Wait a minute, the devil dragon sent me here..."
Tru's words made Chen Long stop his movements, and even his father cast a solemn gaze over him.
Shen Zhao's name has not spread, and Dad and the others can only use this nickname. When fighting against the Black Hand organization, this title was used by this small group of people to call Shen Zhao.
After countless nights of searching for information, as well as the things they searched for all night today, Dad and the others knew exactly what the Demon Lord represented.
So when they heard this name, both of them except Quetzalcoatl became serious.
"Dad, Uncle Long, what happened?" Xiaoyu seemed to be awakened by the movement downstairs at this time. She walked to the stairs, her hair was a little messy, and she asked as if she hadn't woken up.
But when she saw Tru's appearance clearly, she suddenly woke up: "Mafia?"
"My princess, don't come down yet, wait for me to remove the dangerous factors first." Quetzalcoatl said and prepared to take action again.
There were not so many legends about the monarch in his time. After all, the monarch had been silent for thousands of years at that time. Only the appearance of the Holy Lord later allowed the title of monarch to be spread on the earth again to this day.
"No, let him finish, this is just an ordinary person, there is no magic in him." Dad stopped Quetzalcoatl.
Quetzalcoatl glanced at Toru, and after not feeling the dark aura, he took a step back and stood between Xiaoyu and Toru.
Xiaoyu also regained her energy at this time and sat down on the stairs, obediently not going down.
Under the gaze of a group of people, Tru said hesitantly: "This...that...the devil dragon asked me to take away the magic book."
Dad frowned deeply, something was wrong. No matter how strong this fat man was, he was just an ordinary person. And he had Quetzalcoatl on his side, so it was impossible for the demon dragon not to know this.
But he sent him anyway, and what's even weirder is that the fat man actually directly stated his purpose...
All this made my father feel weird, and at the same time he couldn't figure out what the devil wanted to do.
"Then why did you say it? And what happened to your injuries?" Chen Long asked thoughtfully.
"This is a disguise. The devil dragon asked me to pretend to be seriously injured in order to gain your sympathy." Tru said and took off the bandages and everything.
Then he stared at his father and said: "As for why I said it... I am a human and I don't want to work for the devil anymore. I just want to tell you that I want you to be prepared. If you take the devil's things, they will not
Those who are willing to give up."
Chen Long's eyes softened a little. In his opinion, he was an aspiring young man who had gone to the abyss, repented, and changed his mind.
But Dad's brows furrowed deeper. He didn't sleep all night, which didn't affect the functioning of his brain at all. He was thinking about the loopholes in Tru's words.
"Then do you mean to come to seek refuge with us?" Xiaoyu suddenly asked on the steps.
These words also turned the two people's thinking eyes to Tohru again.
"No, I know you hate me. I'm just here to tell you the news. After I finish speaking, I'm leaving." Tru lowered his head and sounded a little disappointed, as if he had become a homeless child.
"Then you're done, you can go." Dad's eyes flashed slightly, as if he had discovered something.
Tru was stunned for a moment, but still said: "You are the only ones who can deal with the devil now. The devil dragon has reached some deal with the wizard, so be careful!"
After saying that, Tohru turned around and walked outside, as if he really just came to tell the news.
After Tohru left, Dad frowned and thought about everything just now. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't detect anything wrong.
"Dad, he betrayed the devil, will something happen?" A trace of worry flashed in Chen Long's eyes.
Quetzalcoatl didn't care so much. He looked at Xiaoyu with gentle eyes. Seeing Xiaoyu's attention turning to him, he quickly asked: "Is the princess hungry? I'll prepare something for you."
Xiaoyu seemed a little embarrassed. She stood up from the stairs and said, "I can just do it myself."
With that said, she trotted downstairs and ran to the kitchen. She could still make simple sandwiches and the like, but as for cooking... don't even think about it, she was still a child.
"Forget it, let him come back. Dad still needs a helper in his antique shop." Dad began to mutter something as he spoke, and a faint green light appeared in his hand, gradually coloring the entire palm.
Dad raised his hand to cover Chen Long's hand with this light and said, "When you see him, attach this to his body. This will let Dad know if he has any contact with demons later."
Chen Long looked at the green light gradually disappearing in his hand, nodded, and quickly rushed out of the antique store door.
The father looked at Chen Long's back as he walked out, his eyes still full of thought.
Although Tohru had long since escaped from the trajectory of his destiny, when Shen Zhao deliberately guided him towards his original destiny, everything seemed to return to its original state.
Dad's magic represents his distrust of Tohru, but Tohru, who was just sad, gave Dad a feeling of closeness.
It's like...something that was originally lost has returned to its original owner. This chapter has been completed!
