"Ahem... Okay, okay! Now let's talk about serious matters..." Liu Yueqi couldn't help but glance at a white and tender foot peeking out from under the quilt with her peripheral vision, and coughed twice.
Seeing Liu Yueqi's little move, Qing'er stuck out her tongue, but didn't say much.
But...do you prefer the tail or the legs?
Hmm... they all seem to like it.
"Qing'er, since you have followed till now, you must have collected some clues! How about it? Who has the shop owner met? Is there any suspicion of a monster?"
Speaking of this, Qing'er couldn't help but frown.
"Sir... earth escape is not omnipotent. Qing'er can hide in the earth, but if that person is on a high-rise building, Qing'er cannot directly observe it from the ground... he can only transform into his true form and follow quietly.
, but... this move has certain risks after all, and Qing'er can't be too arrogant and follow her closely... Therefore, keeping an eye on this kind of thing must not be comprehensive. Even Xiao Wu, his natural magic skills hide the evil spirit.
Being underground is also closely related to the surface, and there is a possibility of being discovered by high-level monks and monsters of the same level even if it is above the ground."
"It's just that I hid in the master's bedroom today, and she didn't notice me! She stayed in the room this afternoon, and only a few people came into contact with her except some of her maids.
The more distinguished guests came up. And those people don’t look like monsters..."
"So, there are indeed no monsters in Qingyu Fang!" Liu Yueqi touched her chin: "According to what Brother Wu said at the time, a total of four people died on the barren hills outside the city, and the first deceased was killed by a monster.
Kill...are you sure about this?"
"There is absolutely no problem with this. There is indeed a demonic aura left in that person!"
"And the second wave of people were actually killed by mortals, and Qing'er followed the killer to identify Qingyufang, right?"
Qing'er nodded: "The murderer is in Qingyufang now, Qing'er can find her now!"
"This is not important!" Liu Yueqi interrupted: "We don't need to get involved in the grudges between mortals, because we can't judge who is right and who is wrong... We just want to find where the monsters in Iwaki are!"
"The main reason why we investigated Qingyufang is... we connected the first deceased with the three deceased people behind! We thought they were killed by the same wave of people! So we took it for granted that the person who killed the first person was
Monsters are also hiding in Qingyufang..."
Having said this, Liu Yueqi sighed: "And this is just our guess. If the monster that killed the first person and the murderer behind him are not the same group, then we have been spending time in Qingyufang, and there is no doubt that they are.
It’s a waste of time…”
"But... having said that, we have no other goals!" Qing'er frowned slightly, feeling that things were starting to become very troublesome: "So, we can't be sure whether there are monsters in Iwaki... that person
After all, he died outside the city. If the monster kills everyone and then walks away, then we will have to look around here and find a place to be lonely..."
What Qing'er said makes sense. The prerequisite for finding monsters is that there are monsters in the city. If there are no monsters in the city, then... isn't it true that you are looking for loneliness?
"Well...actually...it's not impossible..." Liu Yueqi thought for a while and then said: "Since we want to investigate the case, if we can't find the murderer directly based on our imagination, we can look for it from the deceased.
clue!"
"deceased?"
"That's right... Qing'er, where is the first dead body you found?"
"It's still in the mountains over there, but...it's been so long, and even if it's not rotten, it still stinks to death!"
"What are you afraid of if it's smelly?" Liu Yueqi chuckled and said: "We are a small team that has explored mass graves. What's there to be afraid of with just a dead body... Let's let Xiao Wu go look for the dead body tomorrow.
Clues, and then bring back useful clues...I won't go, it's too far..."
Qing'er rolled her eyes at him: "Young Master, could it be that he treats Xiao Wu as his subordinate? He is not Young Master's subordinate, and he still calls me eldest sister..."
"Well... since I can't use him, I can only use Qing'er. Let's do this. Qing'er will go to the corpse tomorrow to look for clues, and then bring it back to me..."
"Forget it, let Xiao Wu go. He is more professional. Qing'er may not be able to see any useful clues..."
"..."
Sold in a second.
"What about the young master?" Qing'er pouted: "The young master will let us help with the work, and he can sleep in, right..."
"Hmm... Then Qing'er, do you want to sleep in?" Liu Yueqi immediately looked at Qing'er with a smirk on her face.
As soon as this question was asked, Qing'er immediately blushed with embarrassment.
"Qing'er doesn't sleep in... It's all because of Mr. Qing'er... Humph!"
"Oh...blame it on me..." Liu Yueqi sighed: "It's all my fault. Qing'er turned from a hard-working maid into a lazy worm..."
"Ah! Young Master, please stop talking... you're so embarrassed!" Qing'er clenched her pink fist and lightly punched Liu Yue's chest. After punching her for a few times, she seemed to be feeling unsatisfied, so she raised her calf as if to kick.
But suddenly I felt a chill on my legs when I leaned out of the quilt. When I lowered my head, I saw that there was nothing on my white and smooth jade legs, and then I quickly shrank back in shame and anger.
"Young Master is a pervert..."
Seeing this scene, Liu Yueqi wanted to laugh a little, but she was more curious.
"Strange... Qing'er, what is there to hide between you and me... After putting on this outfit, Qing'er seems to be more shy than usual... Qing'er is not as blushing as she is now even when she is not wearing anything.
…”
"Qing'er is not shy!" Qing'er raised her head and glared at him: "Young master, you are wrong. Qing'er blushed a little, just... just because it was too hot..."
Liu Yueqi looked at her with a smile, and continued without saying anything: "I asked Brother Wu to help me go outside the city. Of course I also have a mission!"
"Huh? Where are you going, young master?"
"Since we want to investigate the deceased... we don't necessarily have to find the corpse..." Liu Yueqi smiled softly: "There is a long mountainous area to the north of Iwaki. Very few people come from there. Which corpse is Iwaki?
Locals are most likely!”
"According to what Brother Wu said, that person should have some background and be able to obtain a monk's magic weapon for self-defense... In this way, it shouldn't be difficult to check..."
"Young master... I want to go to the Yamen to check. Have any dignitaries reported to the government recently because of the loss of their heirs?"
"That's pretty much what it means!" Liu Yueqi nodded and said, "It's just not going to the Yamen...because if the Yamen knows, that place must also know!"
Qing'er was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Young master, you mean... the City Lord's Mansion?"
"That's right! Qing'er is so smart!" Liu Yueqi lowered his head and pressed a light seal on her forehead, then smacked her mouth twice. It was very delicious.
Qing'er's face turned red, but she couldn't hide her joy.
She quickly buried her head in Liu Yueqi's arms to prevent him from seeing her cheerful expression.
"How about Qing'er go and investigate the city lord's mansion for the young master... I don't believe there is another Tianxuan Demon Mirror here that can reveal me!"
"No! I can just go by myself! Iwaki City is so big, and the city lord's mansion is unlikely to have any means to deal with monsters..." Liu Yueqi thought for a while: "I'll see if I can secretly go there with the help of that guy Han Yu's relationship."
It should be feasible to reverse the case and document library. It is not an important secret anyway."
"Then Young Master must be more careful. There must be monks in the City Lord's Mansion..."
"Don't worry about this. I asked Sister Shuang'er to accompany me. If I can't secretly reveal Kunlun's identity, it should be no problem to investigate the case!"
But when she heard that Liu Yueyingshuang could accompany the young master, Qing'er was a little disappointed.
After all, I am a monster and can't do anything to help the young master openly.
"Then... are there still checks at Qingyufang?"
"Where is Yuzhu now?"
"Outside the city!"
"Ask her to help keep an eye on Huang Siniang. If that doesn't work, just keep an eye on the killer!"
"No need, the killer has always been by Huang Siniang's side, her maid named Xiang Ruo!"
Hearing this, Liu Yueqi looked at Qing'er in surprise.
So, doesn't that guy Han Yu often hang out with murderers? I hope his guard named Ah Fu is really as good at fighting as he said, otherwise he might offend someone one day.
Got hacked!
"By the way, Young Master, there is one more important thing. Young Master is now in the second realm and should be able to practice immortal arts... Didn't Young Master go and discuss this with the eldest lady?"
Mentioning this, Liu Yueqi couldn't help scratching her head in distress.
"Alas...I already mentioned it to Sister Shuang'er today...but..."
"It's just what? Is Kunlun's magic not allowed to be spread to outsiders?"
"That's not the case, it's her...her..." Liu Yueqi was a little embarrassed when she said this, so she could only whisper a few words in Qing'er's ear.
"..."
Qing'er couldn't help but widen her eyes and stared at Liu Yueqi blankly for more than ten seconds.
Just when Liu Yueqi thought Qing'er couldn't bear it and was going to have a fit, Qing'er suddenly covered her mouth and burst into laughter.
"Hahaha... Young Master... I... Hahaha!"
Qing'er smiled from ear to ear, covering her stomach and turning over and over on the bed. Her long legs hidden under the quilt kicked out and made her dizzy.
"You are so ridiculous! If you laugh again, I will go find Sister Shuang'er!"
"No, no, no! Master, don't go... Qing'er just... just think of the eldest lady's greedy look... hahaha... I can't help but want to laugh..." Qing'er held Liu Yueqi's arm and smiled.
When I got up, my whole body was shaking.
"Alas... Qing'er... what should I do? I... I don't even dare to mention the practice of immortality. What if Sister Shuang'er takes this as an excuse to do something with me... alas..."
"If you don't want to learn, just don't learn! Humph! At worst, I'll learn sorcery from Qing'er!"
"..." Liu Yueqi was stunned.
Learn sorcery?
Becoming bigger or smaller? Becoming a snake?
