Chapter 61 Murder on the Roadside
The new campus of Huiming High School is near my home and can be reached in about 15 minutes' walk. Despite this, I still couldn't realize my ambition to sleep in early morning. As soon as the sun rose, I was awakened by my mother who pushed open the door and broke in without hesitation.
My mother usually calls us to get up at this time, but the problem is that I told her about the merger of the school last night. There is no need to get up so early. For Mao, she still ran over? Didn’t it be that I forgot...
I stared at the middle-aged woman who was full of maturity in front of me with three points of anger and seven points of innocent eyes, hoping that the other party could give a reasonable explanation; however, my mother, who was wearing an apron and holding a spoon in her right hand, had no intention of explaining at all, and pointed the spoon at the tip of my nose and said loudly: "Get up!"
"Mom, there's really no need to get up so early, right?" I burst into tears when I heard this, "The school hasn't opened yet."
"Of course I know that the school is not open. I just want you to get up and take Mengyun and Emilyna to exercise in the morning." My mother said seriously in an undeniable tone, "From today on this, this will be your daily compulsory course, don't be lazy."
"I took two beautiful girls to run together in the morning to exercise and show my love. Are you not afraid that my son, I will be tied to a shelf and burned into a coke mosaic by the members of the FF group who flocked to him when they heard the news!?"
"It doesn't matter if it's burned into a mosaic." My mother curled her lips calmly, "As long as you can exercise your body well, you can satisfy Emilyna when you do something loving to you in the future."
So the reason for all this is that my dad who did not make a mechanical octopus bracelet last night failed to satisfy you!? Uh, you can't tell me even if you beat me to death.
"She and I are really nothing." I really want to jump up and explain to my mother carefully. Unfortunately, there is a treasure under the pillow, and there is a photo of Senior Sister Lan Yu. Now I can't get up no matter what. "Why don't you believe it?"
"If no one of you girls would enter your room in nightgowns, and twice?"
That's because her big nerve is completely different from that of ordinary people... No, I wouldn't be surprised even if her DNA is different from that of humans. She is just a person from another world.
My mother had no reason to remain silent, so she turned around and walked out of the door. When she arrived at the door, she suddenly stopped and looked back at me and said seriously: "Anyway, get up quickly and prepare for a morning run. There is no need to discuss this matter. In addition, put away the tutoring book under your pillow."
"Puff--!!" I was so shocked that I squirted a few meters away, "Why would you know it?"
"Nonsense, I'm your mother." The mother decisively put on her face with a mighty and domineering expression, "Don't continue to moji there. If you don't get up in 10 minutes, just buy breakfast for me outside!"
Is there any breakfast when I move slowly? I immediately felt that my whole body was filled with energy.
——————————————————————————————————————
Mengyun obviously had the same plan to sleep in like me, and was forced to go out for a run and exercise with reluctance; on the contrary, Emilyna acted very calmly, as if she had often done this before.
There are a lot of fitness equipment in the community, but they are basically being used by the elderly; so I decided to follow my mother's request to take the two girls to run, and the location is set on the street near the community. If I trot around from outside and go home, I believe my mother should be satisfied with it.
The air was mixed with a hint of chill in the morning, but the sun was shining on it and it felt warm and comfortable. Since it was still early, there were not many pedestrians or vehicles on the road, and some shops were not open, making it look quieter. The three of us jogged through the street where the community was located and arrived at the intersection a few hundred meters away.
Then many onlookers were found opposite.
Of course, these people are not here to watch the peerless beauty Emilyna, because they all have their backs to us.
I don't like to join in the fun, but my baby sister Mengyun is the opposite of me. Before I could turn around, Mengyun jumped and rushed across the road.
After looking at Emilyna, I couldn't help but shrugging and following the naughty little girl.
"Nah, what happened?" Meng Yun couldn't see the situation inside because of her size, and the crowd was dense and she couldn't squeeze in at all, so she had to ask a middle-aged uncle nearby.
This girl was very cute, and her cute and curious expression deliberately made and her sweet voice instantly eliminated the uncle's dissatisfaction with the sudden talk. She looked at Meng Yun and said seriously and softly: "A terrible thing happened inside, so it's better for children not to know."
I had already walked to Mengyun's side at this time. When I was about to reach out to pull her back and apologize to the uncle, Emilyna suddenly said lightly: "Murder incident?"
Don’t talk about yourself as if people will die wherever you go. People with that strange physique are enough to have a four-eyed primary school student detective in the whole world!
"How do you know?" The middle-aged uncle was decisively immersed in a state of stagnation when he looked at the blonde girl, so I could only answer Emilyna. "Can you awaken some new ability after fighting with that pseudo-angel?"
The girl kept her calm and elegant expression and gently raised her hand to point to the roadside not far away, where several police cars and a military truck were parked.
Well, okay, I admit that I don’t have enough observation. But then again, why are there military vehicles here? Could it be that this incident is related to plants?
"Yes, I heard that a murdered man was found in this alley, and the wound was found very much like it was caused by those plants after examination." The uncle finally came back to his senses and swallowed his saliva hard, "That's right, I just said that those ghosts could not be eliminated easily."
It turns out that behind this crowded crowd is the alley that is said to be strange, no matter what unreliable things happen, it will not make people feel strange? Sure enough, this is the most dangerous place in the city.
"Have you found out where those plants are hidden?" Emilyna seemed to be concerned about this topic. She asked the uncle carefully about the news, "Or are there any special traces left nearby?"
"Not found yet, everyone is wondering if they will come out of the sewer."
Although I really want to say the previous sentence, "Are these plants ready to start changing careers and be righteous heroes hidden in the sewers severely punishing bad people with bloody and violent means?" But the blonde girl around me had no intention of wanting to play with daily life, and in fact, the plants can indeed be hidden in the huge sewer system in Milan, so I decisively swallowed the complaints.
He occasionally found useful information in the gossip, but most of them could be ignored directly. After learning enough information, Emilyna said goodbye to the uncle who seemed a little reluctant, and turned around and left the murder scene.
"Woo, there are too many people, I don't see anything at all, so it's so boring." Mengyun pouted and complained angrily on the way home, "There weren't many people on the road early in the morning?"
Because everyone was attracted to watch, it seems that there are not many people in other places, right?
Ignoring this little girl, I turned my head and looked at Emilyna beside me and asked seriously: "Why, you seem to pay attention to this matter?"
The blonde girl gently lit her head: "Yes. The plant base has been destroyed, and Belloc may take advantage of their chaos to conquer some of them as their subordinates. If the demon intends to use the earth veins to make a fuss, then he will definitely be too busy and someone must help him."
The demon gathered the defeated mistresses of the plant as his subordinates? Could he really plan to use these tentacle monsters to deal with the magic girl?
"I think it should be okay." After rubbing my head hard, I tried to comfort the girl who seemed a little worried. "Tias's specification is currently healing near the earth veins. If the demon wants to make small moves, it will definitely alarm Wannian Loli, and then... there will be no more."
"Well, this is the best." Emilyna stroked her long ponytail and pondered, "Indeed, even if the demon controls some plants, it cannot pose much threat to the city, let alone the whole world. Having said that, since the plants have been done, I will start looking for Belloc."
"I'll help, too, even to repay you for everything you did for this city." I immediately took over and said, "Don't worry, if you ask me to do something too dangerous, I won't do it, but at least it's okay to give you a shot. Also, do you have any plans after driving away or killing the demon?"
"Go home." The girl immediately replied without hesitation.
Is this the answer? I suddenly realized that I was a little reluctant to part with her. No, no, no, calm down first, this should be very normal, after all, everyone has experienced so much together.
After shaking his head hard and patting his face hard to calm himself down, I strode towards the direction of my home: "That's right. But before that, you have to go back to our home in this world, wipe your face and change your clothes and prepare to go to school. Although you know there is a noble school at your doorstep, I really don't know what it looks like. I'm looking forward to it."
Emilyna and Meng Yun agreed and followed closely.
(I went to hang up the water this afternoon, otherwise I would really need a bento sooner or later...)
