After Quechun thanked Mu Qing, she left the lobby under the leadership of Liu Yueshan. Mu Qing looked at the direction she left and asked in surprise: "Miss Quechun, are you still waiting for someone?"
Quechun went to the backyard, obviously not leaving.
Wang Yeqing nodded and said: "After Xing Fei sent her to Yueshan, he asked for the address here and will come to pick up Quechun then."
Mu Qing didn't think too much, but Wang Yeqing looked at him and reminded him seriously: "Xing Fei is very sincere. Maybe many things can be determined after you meet this time."
Huaifenghua looked at the direction in which Que Chun was leaving and agreed: "In addition to sincerity, he probably also recognized Mu Qing, otherwise he would not have sent Que Chun here."
Mu Qing looked from here to there, and realized belatedly that being able to see Que Chun at this time was Xing Fei's greatest trust. He nodded and said, "If everything goes well, many things will happen in the future." Please trouble Mrs. Wang, to be honest, I still don’t know how to be a good city lord.”
Wang Yeqing shook his head and said: "Everyone has different standards of good and bad. When your aunt and I wanted you to be the city lord, we didn't want you to focus on this, but to have someone who can..."
When Wang Yeqing said this, he paused, as if he hadn't found an appropriate way to say it. He looked at Huaifenghua, who smiled and added: "It's probably a place where you can stay at ease."
Wang Yeqing nodded and said, "If you believe in us, you can practice with confidence."
Mu Qing smiled bitterly and said, "I trust you all the time. I just feel that if you become the city lord and don't care about anything, it seems a bit disrespectful to everyone's trust."
Wang Yeqing seriously corrected Mu Qing's point of view and said: "Don't have too many weird ideas. In such a situation, you only need to do one thing well and practice well. For the Suzaku City behind you, , is the biggest effect.”
Mu Qing nodded as if he understood. Huaifenghua looked up and looked out of the lobby and said, "Xing Fei is here. Let's let you two talk alone."
"Eh-" Mu Qing originally wanted to keep the two girls, but the two girls seemed to want to let Mu Qing make the decision in some aspects, so they just left here.
When Mu Qing walked to the door, Xing Fei also happened to walk here. He looked up at Mu Qing, nodded and said, "Let's go in and talk."
As soon as Mu Qing sat down, Xing Fei said: "I'm surprised that you want to be the city lord, but at this time, your choice can be considered a good result for the Guards."
Mu Qing knew that it was no secret that he and Hidden Valley didn't get along. He shook his head and said, "It's just the better of several bad results. It's not a good result either. Commander Xing doesn't need to praise me as soon as he comes."
Xing Fei looked in the direction of the backyard and seemed to hear the woman's voice. After sitting down, he leaned back on the chair, his expression rarely relaxed, and said with a smile: "I'm not flattering you. I know a lot about you from Mrs. Wang." If I hadn't seen some things with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that you were the killer from Hidden Valley. You don't know that many people died in the entire inner city yesterday afternoon because of you."
Mu Qing said with a smile: "I didn't think too much at the time. I just thought Bai Hao deserved to die, so I did it."
When Xing Fei heard this familiar name, his eyebrows raised slightly, and his expression suddenly became much more serious. Mu Qing also noticed something strange about him and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Xing Fei shook his head and was silent for a moment before asking: "Bai Hao...is he really dead?"
Chen Zhuo also asked this question face to face, but Mu Qing saw some different emotions in Xing Fei's eyes and asked solemnly: "Is he still alive?"
This time it was Xing Fei's turn to be nervous. He stood up directly, approached Mu Qing, and asked seriously: "Didn't you say you killed him? Why are you not sure?"
When Mu Qing was questioned by Xing Fei in person, the expression on his face froze. After a moment of reaction, he calmly said: "Bai Hao is indeed dead. Why did you ask that just now? Did you find anything?"
Xing Fei looked at Mu Qing apologetically, returned to his seat and sat down. He looked ahead but said slowly without much focus: "Before evacuating the people, Xiong San led an elite guard force of more than a thousand people to find him. Geshan, from last night to now, not only have I lost contact with them, but I have also lost any news about Lao Qi and more than a hundred soldiers sent to look for them."
Mu Qing asked: "Where did they go down from? If you go down from the City Lord's Mansion to find someone, there are four levels of space below, and it is easy to get lost."
Xing Fei replied in a deep voice: "We went down from the White Pagoda Temple, and you may not know how the Guards keep in touch. Lao Qi and I agreed that we must send someone to the ground to report the situation every hour. , but now, no one has come back for three full hours, which is very abnormal."
Mu Qing's expression became serious, and he guessed: "Maybe they have found the army in front, but they are in the same predicament as them. Will you continue to send people down to search?"
Xing Fei nodded: "After I sent Que Chun to Miss Yueshan, I originally planned to come to you directly. It was because of this incident that I returned to the inner city. I sent another hundred people down and ordered them to go down every day. Leave one person at a distance, and report any situation to the person behind you."
Mu Qing also saw Xing Fei's organizational ability in facing problems again, and said softly: "Maybe we will know where the problem lies soon. Bai Hao's clone and body both died in the last formation base space. You don't have to go too far." Worry."
When Xing Fei heard what Mu Qing said, his expression finally improved a little, but then he was stunned and said in a solemn voice: "Does he have a clone?"
Mu Qing had no choice but to repeat what he had said to Chen Zhuo in person last night. At the end, Xing Fei looked at Mu Qing with complicated eyes, and said with a sigh in his voice: "Listen to what you said, if Bai Hao is still alive, it is true that This is unbelievable. You have sacrificed a lot. I cannot replace those people, but I can barely express my gratitude to you on behalf of the surviving soldiers behind you."
Mu Qing saw that Xing Fei had stood up as he spoke, and he stood up as well. He asked in surprise: "Is Commander Xing leaving now?"
Xing Fei nodded and said: "I will definitely support you in your decision to become the city lord. There are still many things in the military camp. I must go back and sit in the army."
Que Chun appeared on the inquiring side at some point, looking at Xing Fei calmly, as if knowing that Xing Fei would not take her away, and said with a smile: "You should have a good rest and take care of yourself."
Xing Fei deeply forgot about Que Chun, hugged his fists towards the girls who were accompanying Que Chun, then looked at Mu Qing and said: "Que Chun's safety is entrusted to you!!"
Mu Qing smiled and said: "I like to be at the front when fighting, so you have to thank Mrs. Wang and the others. I'll give it to you."
When the two of them walked out of the gate of the house, the morning sun completely rose from the horizon. The two of them stopped at the same time and took a breath of the cool morning air. Xing Fei looked at Mu Qing and said, "In my heart, Geshan is a better person than me." A capable person, he and I have an agreement that after Bai Hao is confirmed to be dead, he will leave Suzaku City, and I will have a drink with him to say goodbye."
"He wants to leave Suzaku City?" Mu Qing asked in surprise, and then with some understanding, he sighed softly: "This is probably the best choice."
Although there was Xie Xiu's head chopped off by Chen Zhuo, and there was a brief encounter in the passage, Mu Qing still didn't like people like Ge Shan. If we dig deeper, Ge Shan was sometimes like Bai Hao, and he did not hesitate to use some of his methods to achieve his goals. Totally unacceptable approach.
Xing Fei shook his head and said with a complicated expression: "I will only be happy for him if he can leave. I want to say that I haven't seen him yet. This is actually the main reason why I feel uneasy from last night to now. reason."
