In her eyes, Kong and Taibu were most likely having an affair. Just from the way she looked at Kong as if he might melt, and some cute little details, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that she was pursuing Kong.
——Although she misjudged the "candidate" that Sora mentioned.
He dismissed the few underworld messengers behind him and sat down on the sofa as Kong invited.
As she sat down, the muscles in her waist and back completely relaxed, and her head tilted towards the empty space. It might be because she hadn't been in such a relaxing situation for a long time, and hadn't met such an important person who didn't need to be so pretentious, and she was actually in a trance for a moment.
"Hey!! Are you okay??"
It was not until Kong held her head and pushed her against the back of the sofa that she realized that she was halfway on the edge of fainting.
Although the general was not trapped for a long time, the Medicine King had been secretly spying for some time, and she was also investigating the arrangements made by the Chi Ming rebels in Linyuan Realm.
"I'm so sorry... I haven't slept properly for two weeks... Jackdaw's body is in good condition, but even if I forget the content of the dream, I feel that my karma is still chasing me."
She spoke as fast as if her mouth was scalded by Meng Po soup, and all the words came out in one go:
"Ah... It's so nice to be able to sit here and do nothing... Doctor, could you please not send me back to the palace? Just think of it as assigning me a task - when I think about the fact that even if you are kind enough to let me go back to rest, I will have to lie down in front of a mountain of files, I can't help but hope that this moment will last forever -"
The reason why Pa made this blatantly lazy request was not because she lacked a sense of responsibility, but because she felt that if she launched the investigation and went deeper into the Dandingsi Cave Heaven, she could still be of some help.
㈤After torturing and interrogating seven or eight unlucky people who didn't have time to evacuate Changletian for a whole night yesterday, Jackdaw has roughly determined that the scale of the Medicine King Secret Organization is far less than imagined. The reason why it can cause such terrible destructive power is simply because of the power of Dan Shu's unknown partner and the support of the Chi Ming rebels. Now Kong not only helps Luo Fu to grasp the whereabouts of Dan Shu, but also has to find the other three hunters who may have some understanding of the true identity of the criminals introduced into the legion... He can get first-hand information by his side.
7 Of course... The key is that you don't need to use dream interpretation when you go out on the field, you can directly collect evidence on the spot, you don't need to breathe the decayed smell in the coffin, but smell this man's fragrance - don't worry if it's the fragrance of this man, at least it's real, containing the fragrance of the flowers outside the Youxia Courtyard and the fake sunshine shining on your body, the joy of naturally supplementing vitamin D -
She had to drink soup after the dream. Although the damage to her body could be recovered through elixirs, the powerful self-healing ability of the immortal boat people and the secret method of the Ten Kings, her mental exhaustion had already pushed her to the brink of her limit.
⑹ After listening to her complaints, Kong almost praised her as the best worker in Luofu. She really worked hard even in her dreams.
Shirt: "...wait a moment."
Seeing that she was even more exhausted than the master and disciple who had fired nine shots at him, Si couldn't bear it and put his hand on her head, his eyes glowing blue, and transferred some of his spiritual energy to her.
4. The blessing of psychic energy is not permanent, but it can alleviate the loss of energy. This girl's psychic potential is very strange, and the amount of information in her head is more complicated than what he leaked when communicating with the system. You know, if he doesn't take the initiative to share his memory, the messenger will explode on the spot if he dares to peek into his head directly. And in just a few seconds of contact with the jackdaw's psychic energy, the fragmented information that was not deleted gave him a headache.
This is really a superhuman... The key is not how much information she can hold, but her ability to use her brain as a container and transit station to sort out the information. If nothing unexpected happens, she will soon have an accident if she continues like this - even if she doesn't have the previous demon body, she may fall into the deep pit of memory and can't climb out.
Not everyone has a system as an external storage unit, and not everyone has no rejection reaction to external storage units.
Speaking of which... has the Ten Kings ever worked with Yi Ting? It is obvious that this interrogation system should be optimized. The risks and losses to the judges are too great.
To Kong, it was just a piece of cake to help, and it was not even as difficult as holding a female companion's hand in public. But to Jackdaw - in her dream, a star in the sky illuminated her.
The dark circles and wrinkles on her body due to mental fatigue faded a lot, and she looked just darker, without wrinkles and fatigue:
"It suddenly became clear to me - thank you for your generosity."
"It's okay, it's mutually beneficial."
"It turned out to be the right decision not to return to the Hall of Karma right away... Besides, it's easier to interrogate them face to face than to go back for interrogation. If we catch the bad guys later, we can just pry their mouths open right where they are... Well, no - this will cause unnecessary trouble to the doctor."
I don’t know if it’s because her mind has become more active, but this girl’s mouth has become even faster.
At the same time, she picked up her cell phone and quickly typed a string of words to the government office.
That typing speed is even inferior to the speed of using an air compressor.
"...The Land and Investment Division has already opened a free package for Ms. Liu Yun. Huh, do they even have to report such a small amount of money? Why not merge that broken division into the Ten Kings? No, that's not right. If it is merged into the Ten Kings, I will have to take care of more things. It's better not to..."
Her eyes, which had been able to move somewhat normally, froze for a moment, and then turned to Kong, whose face was full of subtlety. Kong could see that no matter how good her mental state was, there was no light in her eyes, as if her irises had their own underworld filter that absorbed all the light.
Shen He's dull look was because she didn't know how to express emotions to others. She looked completely numb, or maybe it was due to her job that she was accustomed to expressing her emotions through tone of voice instead of using her facial muscles.
But her dark eyes did not mean that her thoughts were dark: "...Some people say that occasionally venting emotions and simply speaking from the heart can quickly narrow the distance. Doctor, that's what I was planning just now... So please don't tell my colleagues in the government about my complaints."
If you don't explain, you can still apply this theory -
But isn't your efficiency in converting my vigilance as if I'm not an outsider a bit too high?
The corner of Sora's mouth twitched and he sat a little further away from her.
In addition to helping, there must be enough social space. Although it sounds a bit narcissistic to say this, Kong does not want to leave too much room for ambiguity and opportunities for misunderstanding. After all, there are too many lessons from the past. In Kivotos, if he asked a few more questions about the students' well-being, he would be accused of "whatever happens next is the teacher's fault" and held their hands. Many times, there is no option of "central air conditioning", and the only ending is "exhaust fan".
"…Do I smell like a corpse? Or do I smell like a secret villain?"
The decent behavior of Kong on the opposite side, who was keeping a distance, made the eyes of the Jackdaw, who wanted to continue to sniff the "breath of living people" and chat and relax, suddenly become dim.
It is not the gloom of aggressive bait】（９４÷琳＊∨肆傘伍♀—溜¤４刺蝟→∽4折代－≤购：, but the kind of self-accusation——
Previously, he wanted to use his own disgusting qualities to help his sister ward off the threats she received. However, after resolving the misunderstanding and confirming that the other party was a good person, Jackdaw felt that his own darkness was really troublesome. He couldn't let others disgust him and run away.
"?No?"
"Then why does the doctor seem to be avoiding the plague... I have spoken out of turn again. I apologize to you again. I don't have many opportunities to communicate with normal people. I finally met one, and I really don't know how to deal with it..."
"It's really not easy for you..."
364. Is the fox’s tail exposed?
Logically speaking, the overall atmosphere, beliefs, and social structure of Xianzhou should allow most people engaged in military, security, and criminal investigation to be highly respected and gain sufficient social status.
But after listening to Jackdaw's complaints, her remarks that responsibility outweighs pride in her work at the Karma Hall, and the difficulties she encountered in life, Kong roughly understood that the Hades Messenger and the Judge are always associated with all kinds of weirdness and death in folk legends because their appearance means that evil spirits are rampant around them. The people on the Immortal Boat have the courage to face the end of their lifespan, but that doesn't mean they don't avoid evil spirits. This avoidance has also caused a lot of trouble in Jackdaw's work and life.
This kind of trouble was also reflected in the fact that when Tingyun came to the lobby to arrange a meeting room for the train team and saw the judge was also present, he behaved somewhat aloof.
"Judge Jackdaw." Fox Mountain ■≡費〉群‰:ba/＜5∠+妻—↓熝潞㈢☆·似. ·si）∈Aili had kept a good distance with Sora when getting along with her, but after making eye contact with Jackdaw, he could no longer maintain it.
She stood at a distance from the lobby lounge and greeted the Jackdaw, seemingly not intending to come closer. Not pretending not to see it was her last sign of respect for the Jackdaw.
But in Jackdaw's opinion, this is how ordinary people should behave. It is as if everyone knows that when the serious crime squad is dispatched, it is to maintain justice and peaceful life for everyone, but the "serious case" that their appearance often means is frightening.
"Stop the ferry. Don't pay attention to me. I'm waiting for the general and the doctor's orders. I'm not here to investigate."
"So... Judge Jackdaw would you like to have breakfast here? I will arrange it right away—"
Considering the lavish way Tianbosi entertains guests on a daily basis, normally even if the other party doesn't want to eat breakfast, they have to inform the kitchen to prepare it. This question seems a bit pretentious and reluctant.
"No need, I've already eaten."
Meng Po soup is enough to keep you full - now when the jackdaw burps silently, it will emit a medicinal smell, but when Kong smells it from a close distance, it doesn't smell bad at all, and has a wonderful fragrance.
"What a pity! I would like to entertain the judge, my benefactor... How about choosing Youxia Court as the meeting room?"
Seeing that the jackdaw was quite sensible, this guy hurriedly winked at Kong.
Kong had only known this fox for a short time, but he could sense that she had a good sense of propriety...but she had completely lost it this morning.
Q I really didn't notice that she was avoiding the Hades before... Was it because the people of Xianzhou were naturally afraid of the demons? Or was it because they were afraid that her hidden identity would be seen through by the Judge?
q Or maybe both - Kong stood up, apologized to Jackdaw, and after the other party returned to a half-dead state, he moved towards Tingyun first.
"My benefactor, why are you sitting with the judge?"
However, when they reached the corner of the conference room, Tingyun was stunned as soon as he opened his mouth: "The one who will be in charge of receiving you is a little girl - Yukong Siduo also told the general to 'serve' the benefactor well. Although the judges are beautiful, they are not ordinary people. They have come into contact with many karmas, and their bodies are different from ordinary people. Staying with them for too long may be harmful to your health -"
: "Is it really appropriate for you to rank his colleagues like this..."
Dad: "This is generally acknowledged... Have you ever thought about why the Snow-robed Judge gave up his physical body and turned into gold and stone?"
Wu: "Because your body can't bear such a heavy workload, you chose mechanical ascension?"
Qi "...My benefactor really loves to joke."
6 Tingyun glanced at Kong's chin coquettishly, and seemed to be about to lift Kong's chin with the handle of the fan, but halfway through she felt that this action was too tempting and too teasing, so in the end she only lifted it once and then turned to open the fan -
⒍ "Of course it's because the Yin Qi corrodes the body. I don't disrespect those heroes, but they are not suitable as companions and guides. Otherwise, when facing a powerful enemy, the company would not let me serve you all the time. It's definitely not as simple as the judges don't understand the ways of the world."
San's long and difficult sentence of six consecutive "no"s left Kong Zheng speechless. She immediately closed her fan and turned her ears slightly to the sides: "Of course, if you insist on testing the judge's ability, I will not persuade you any more. I just think that instead of being dazzled by the people in the underworld, you should turn your attention to the other beautiful women in the fairy boat."
4 Judging from the current Tingyun's attitude as a person who is good at flattery, she can even be said to be a little "anxious", which is completely different from the secret teasing she showed yesterday.
"...Does this count as self-recommendation?"
"My benefactor, what are you talking about? It's not my turn yet. It's just that... I can still get in touch with Siduo, and I have some connections in the Star Travel Shipping and Chamber of Commerce. I heard that the compound business you developed is interested in entering the Immortal Boat. I can do my best for you."
Your jealousy is really refreshing and unconventional - no, it should be said that it is full of the obvious smell of money.
However, she seemed to realize that her reaction just now was a bit "out of line", so she cleverly shifted her main purpose of pulling Kong to have a private chat and slander the judge to wanting to curry his favor.
All of a sudden Kong was in a dilemma again. This woman had finally revealed a flaw, so how could she cover it up again?
So Kong put on a serious attitude and grabbed the handle of Tingyun's swaying fan. He had long been annoyed by the handle of the fan, which was like a fox's tail swaying in an arc.
"Tingyun, what's wrong with you? If you don't want me to contact Jackdaw, just make it clear. I don't have time to play riddle games with you."
"...Alas, I am just a little afraid of the judge. I don't want to get involved with her, nor do I want you to talk to her too much...other than that, there is no special reason." Tingyun, whose fan was controlled, was stunned for a moment, and then a green light flashed in his eyes.
"…Huh? You're telling the truth?"
"How dare I deceive my benefactor~ Such rude words, can't you take your time? Or does everyone except me dislike the art of carefully crafted language?"
Tingyun wagged his tail with some regret, put away the fan after Kong relaxed his grip, and put on a slightly coquettish smile.
At that moment her psychic reaction seemed to become stronger, but it also allowed Sora to draw at least one conclusion - she was telling the truth, she was afraid of the jackdaw, although only a little bit.
"...It's okay. I promise she won't affect you. We are just working partners at the moment."
So in Xianzhou's culture... the fear of the underworld is more serious than he thought?
⒏ “…You are indeed a benefactor.”
Si just didn't know why, but Kong felt that Tingyun, while feeling relieved, had no aversion to his questioning just now, and even looked at him with an extra layer of reliance and ambiguity.
"Hey, let's not talk about spoiling the fun~ My benefactor's domineering appearance just now really made me admire him~ Has he treated other girls like this before?"
jiu "Actually, I don't have much interest in teasing girls... because I will soon have to ask you to help me with a new entry application."
０ “…Hmm?”
Wu...
Tingyun's reaction made Sora feel even more sorry for Jackdaw—
In the words of Sheshe, who is also a doctor, there are so many people in this world who deserve pity, and in his heart, those who are beautiful are more pitiful.
Kong didn't comment on this. Anyway, he would not let Jackdaw suffer any more grievances and mental stimulation while working overtime - but this time it was not for her face, but for himself who was once a "worker" to feel more at ease. It could be regarded as a kind of self-touching.
"We're going to have a meeting, which will probably take about an hour. Do you want to take a nap during this time?"
"No need for that. If the Grand Master and the General knew that I fell asleep while on standby, I would never get such a good thing again."
Jackdaw muttered to himself for a while, but judging from her body movements which had become slightly richer than her language, her mental state had improved a lot.
"Don't force yourself. Don't faint when you start working later."
"You go ahead. There are some benefits to me staying here. At least no one will dare to approach the meeting room casually." Jackdaw was not affected by Tingyun's subtle avoidance - it's not that she didn't mind, she was just used to it.
Since she insisted, Sora didn't force it.
