Zhou Yu took out his mobile phone and glanced at the caller ID on it. Naturally, it was a completely unfamiliar string of numbers, and it was unknown whether it was a real number or a virtual number achieved by some technical means. The tail number of that string of numbers happened to be "4444".
Without much surprise, he first plugged Chen Wei's earphones into his phone, and then slid down the answer button.
As soon as it was connected, annoying chatter came from the earphones. The voice he was very familiar with said with a smile: "Good night, little girl, it's already this hour, and you're still walking on the road with a boy? This is not very decent. If someone with dirty thoughts sees it, he might spread the word. What's the gossip?"
Zhou Yu was also not surprised by this. Now that we know that scouts are crows that can invade even indoor environments, it is normal for them to be monitored in such a lush park.
"...Is he at your place?"
"Ah, what are you saying, little girl? I don't understand what you mean."
Although the words were so, the other party's pretentious and exaggerated tone expressed the completely opposite meaning. There can be no mistake, it was this guy who took him away.
Facing the long vermilion bridge in the distance, Zhou Yu slowly raised the corners of his mouth.
"Nothing, I want to thank you for calling me. I thought I would receive a gift like a finger, but I was just thinking about how to kill your messenger."
The skyscraper made a strange noise.
"My temper is getting more and more violent, little girl. Don't worry, for such an innocent and lovely little girl, how can I bear to hurt her with a finger? It's just that little girl, you don't think well at home and go to such a far place. It's really not like a good girl. Little girl, your legs and feet are not good, so why bother yourself anymore? Isn't it enough to just listen to the recording I gave you? Killing that earthworm is the common wish of everyone, just do it directly That's it, why bother going to a place that smells of disinfectant water and suffer. Alas, I've already searched there, and it was completely eaten by that earthworm, so there's nothing left!"
"That's it. First Sang Lian came here, and then you attacked me twice, so I had to try to evacuate. It's a pity, because I thought Sang Lian had already arrived first, so I didn't search the remaining places. Ferris, it’s because you’re so arrogant that you can’t understand why Sang Lian has no interest in foreign things.”
Zhou Yu said calmly. After hearing his words, Ferris became visibly alert.
"Hey, little girl, you must have found something, right?"
"Who knows. I don't understand what you mean. Tell me, what do you want me to do before you plan to return Student Zhang?"
Ferris didn't answer immediately. From that rare silence, Zhou Yu could sense the other party's suspicion. That kind of almost naked fear made him feel strange - after all, what he had in hand was just a recording file, and even its owner was in danger. Why should Motian be so worried?
"...Hey, actually I don't want to make such an ugly scene with you, little girl, but this is really helpless. In order to ensure the safety of this city, I have been working hard day and night, and I have no choice but to take some measures, but I still hope How can I live in peace with you, little girl?"
"According to what you said, killing Sang Lian will really not do you any good?"
"Of course, this is all just to fulfill my duty..."
When he said this, Motian elongated his tone strangely. It was obviously just a pretentious remark, but he seemed to be deliberately waiting for Zhou Yu's response.
Because he didn't know the purpose of his move, Zhou Yu remained silent. Even so, the other party seemed to understand something that Zhou Yu could not understand, and immediately laughed in a strange way.
"This is outrageous. Little girl, you don't understand anything. Are you just here talking shamelessly to fool me?"
"I don't know what you are talking about, and I have no interest in knowing. In short, the purpose of you doing this is to solve Sanglian, right? You need me to use... the thing Hongye gave me, right?"
Noticing that Chen Wei beside him was listening, Zhou Yu changed his words in time and did not say any words involving weapons and murder.
"Well, it's best for you, little girl, to understand it yourself. Since you are a little girl, you should know exactly what to do, right?"
Motian, who was inexplicably proud, said in a tone that made Zhou Yu extremely disgusted: "Hey, little girl, you are extremely talented when it comes to killing people. There is no need for me to tell you what to do. Of course, I am embarrassed to let you work hard alone, little girl. , I will find two helpers for you then."
Zhou Yu smiled slightly.
"Is this a real helper, or is this an overseer who's here to make sure I complete what I'm asked to do?"
"Don't say it so harshly. If someone else can be of use to that earthworm, I won't go to all the trouble to ask you, little girl. Please, little girl, you also know the position where the earthworm is entrenched. Set out as soon as you're ready, my people are waiting for you at any time."
"In that case, let's just wait until Hongye comes back. I'll be more confident if I go with her."
Knowing that the other party would not be able to agree to such a request, Zhou Yu still said this deliberately. Sure enough, Motian immediately let out an exaggerated scream.
"You can't do that, little girl. You know the temper of the princess, little girl. If she were here, you wouldn't be allowed to use this sword. Alas, letting such an important weapon become dusty is really a result of prejudice. ! I am a servant, and it is inconvenient for me to talk about my old master’s employer. However, the princess has always had a good reputation and is not a leader who can tolerate others. Therefore, although it may be a bit hasty, we still take the day when the princess returns as the date. Come on, little girl, please get rid of that earthworm before this happens - if not, your lovely female companion may be missing forever."
Zhou Yu listened to the other party's words quietly, looking at Zhu Qiao on the lake. For some reason, the longer he stared, the more he felt that the bridge was swaying and twisting slightly.
The lamps designed in the shape of lanterns are neatly arranged on the bridge railings one by one, glowing with a soft red light. It is like the voluptuous silk silk of an ancient woman, and it is also like the wriggling tentacles of deep sea creatures.
The pale image of the moon is reflected in the slightly rippling water under the Zhu Bridge, like a slightly damaged jade wall buried in the water.
Suddenly, he felt how beautiful this scenery was.
If there really is a monster that can devour the world, it must look like the scenery in front of us.
"……I accepted."
Facing the night wind, words flowed clearly from his mouth.
"That's fine. Anyway, you can't keep that thing for a long time. Although I don't want to be stained with filth like you, I'll take care of that first. Then, you have to return the child, otherwise... you understand, right?"
Out of habit, Zhou Yu turned her head and smiled tenderly at the moonlight.
"It's really hard for Jingzu to find you in a place like this, but my situation is different. A moth like you would be inconvenient to clean when Osel was here, and now it looks too annoying."
"...Yeah, this is true."
Motian didn't finish his words for a long time, and finally just said meaningfully: "Little girl, don't be confused about who you are. That kind of price is not something a normal person can bear. Don't worry, as long as Sang Lian is dealt with, , let’s go our separate ways, I will definitely not continue to be disappointed in front of you, little girl.”
That's an absolute lie.
No logical analysis is needed, just instinct to know that the other person is lying. The two sides are definitely not able to coexist peacefully. As long as the common enemy disappears, the next step is to kill the other party.
That idea gradually became clear in his mind.
That's right, as long as Sang Lian is killed, the owner of the skull ring will take action against him. But that doesn’t matter, because——
Compared to the other party, he is better at killing people. It can be killed. As long as the opponent appears, it can definitely be killed now.
"Well, then it's settled."
Facing the moonlight on the high hanging bridge, he answered in a cheerful voice.
"Then let's go find Sang Lian tomorrow night - when the moon is really full."
