Chapter 27: You are not fucking right!!!
Chapter 27
Administration Inside the Academy.
Mu Hang: "How is the research progressing?"
Zhuo Fu shook his head and sighed, "Not much progress."
Ever since that day when the abyss crack expanded and the dragon appeared in the world, the sword seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep again, even though Zhuo Fu tried his best, it still did not show any movement, if not for that day when Zhuo Fu saw the magic fluctuation of the sword, he would have thought that it was just a piece of ordinary iron.
At that moment, Zhuo Fu seemed to have suddenly thought of something and looked at Mu Hang:
"By the way, didn't you send someone to search in the direction where the dragon disappeared? Did you find any clues?"
Mu Hang: "No."
Zhuo Fu tightened his brow and continued to pursue the question:
"So ...... how's Shi An over there? Did he get back to you?"
Mu Hang paused and said, "No."
Zhuo Fu's face appeared a clear look of disappointment.
Not only is there no movement of the longsword, the search has turned up nothing, and even the only witness cannot be contacted ......
Every road is blocked. This is a real dead end.
He tried to struggle, "If I want to cut a little sample off the sword ......"
Mu Hang gazes at him coldly.
Zhuo Fu took half a step back and weakly replied, "Ming, I see, I was just thinking!"
At that moment, there was a ringing sound coming from Mu Hang's coat pocket.
Mu Hang nodded his head to Zhuo Fu as a right of greeting before pulling out his cell phone and turning to head out the door.
Zhuo Fu froze.
Generally speaking, the Administration's internal mission releases would all go through internal exclusive communicators, and what the other party had just pulled out was definitely not an internal communicator.
Speaking of which, this was the first time he had ever seen Mu Hang take a personal call inside the Administration.
Five minutes later.
Mu Hang walks in from outside the research lab.
He still had that cold look, but there seemed to be fire blazing under his eyes, "Shi An agreed."
Zhuo Fu was startled, and it took him two seconds to react to what the other party was saying.
He immediately sprang from his seat, overjoyed:
"Really!"
--This is the first human to have close contact with a fantasy species!
The fact that he's agreed to cooperate, that's a great thing!
An hour later.
Shi An's new cell phone vibrated.
Under the guidance of the Demon Worm, he poked at the screen somewhat clumsily and unskillfully put the call through.
On the other side of the microphone, came the man's low voice slightly distorted:
"I'm here."
Shi An nodded, "Okay oh, I'll be right there!"
He hung up and slipped the phone back into his pocket.
Magic Worm sat crouched at the end of the bed, looking at the teenager in front of him who was getting ready to go out.
Since this time, they went to the Administration with Mu Hang's entourage, they could not follow them so as not to be discovered, and had to stay at home and wait for Shi An's return.
It droned worriedly:
"My lord, you must be careful ah, this goes to the core department of the human race, the human race are all very treacherous, you must not be set up, in short, everything is according to what we said before ......"
Shi An replied perfunctorily, "I know, I know."
He waved his hand at the Demon Bug, "I'm out the door, bye!"
The Demon Worm gazed at the teenager's faraway back, sorrowful as if she were an old mother watching her child go out of town.
Downstairs.
A car pulls up to the door, the backseat window half-open, vaguely revealing the man's well-defined jaw.
Shi An walked straight over to the car, pulled the door open and got in.
An enthusiastic voice came from the front row, "Hi!"
Shi An blinks and lifts her eyes forward.
Zhuo Fu turned back from the driver's seat and showed Shi An a bright smile out of sight, "First time, my name is Zhuo Fu, just call me Zhuo, I was supposed to wait for you at the institute, but I was just too excited, so I just followed you here... ..."
Mu Hang's cold voice rang out, "Drive your car."
"Got it got it got it ......"
Zhuo Fu reluctantly twisted his head back and made a motion to zipper his mouth.
After all, it was only on his frantic pleading that Mu Hang relented, and the only condition for letting him come along was to keep his mouth shut and not make any noise.
The vehicle started and moved forward silently.
Through the rearview mirror, Zhuo Fu looked back curiously.
Although he had not paid much attention to what was happening outside the Administration, and had done a little research after the appearance of the giant dragon ......
As expected, Shi An does have a rare good face.
The bones were slender, the skin was fine and white, and the contours of the features were extremely outstanding, but they had grown a pair of innocent round eyes, which diluted the brightness and aggressiveness of the lines of the features and brought on a bit of cuteness and childishness.
But that's not what surprises Zhuo Fu.
There was an unusual aura ...... in the teenager s body exactly what it was he was hard to say.
Anyway ...... and the rumors seem to be, well, not quite the same.
By the time he arrived at the institute, Zhuo Fu could hardly wait to get the rest of the staff out.
Soon, only the three of them were left in the large space.
He suppressed the excitement that filled him, coughed lightly, and said, "In that case, then, let's start at the very beginning ......"
"What happened before while you were trapped?"
Shi An sat on the sofa with a cup of steaming cup of tea in front of her, her hands resting squarely on her knees, looking extraordinarily well-behaved, "At that time, my roommate and I were trapped in the scorched earth zone, and we were going to go to the center of this zone to look for an emergency exit, but we accidentally encountered the outbreak of a wave of magical creatures ...... "
Zhuo Fu straightened his spine and concentrated on the teenager in front of him, subconsciously holding his breath:
"And then what?"
Shi An doesn't change her face, "And then I don't remember."
Zhuo Fu: "......"
Huh?
He was silent for a long time and asked incredulously back, "What? Don't remember? What do you mean?"
Shi An thought for a moment and replied, "It means that I'll be in the hospital when I open my eyes again."
"Wait wait wait ......" Zhuo Fu pressed the corner of his vaguely aching forehead, "Then how did you get away from the swarm of demons?"
Shi An, in all seriousness, "Don't remember."
"What about ...... dragons?"
Shi An : "This I remember!"
Zhuo Fu: "!"
He perked up again, excited, "Tell me about it!"
Shi An doesn't change her face, "Very big, very beautiful, very handsome!"
Zhuo Fu excitedly said, "That's right that's right, when did you see it?"
Shi An winks, "Never seen it."
Zhuo Fu: "?"
Shi An said seriously, "But I have a feeling that they should be such creatures!"
Zhuo Fu: "........................ "
After twenty minutes of persistent questioning, Zhuo Fu finally realized in frustration that he could not get any information out of the human in front of him.
"Let's ...... take a few minutes break and continue later."
Zhuo Fu said breathlessly.
He stood up and walked over to Mu Hang, who was not far away, and said wearily, "This, this asks nothing!"
Mu Hang nodded his head slightly with a calm expression, "Hmm."
Looking at the unsurprised expression of the man in front of him, Zhuo Fu was stunned, "Wait, you wouldn't have guessed it already, would you?"
"No." Mu Hang shook his head.
"But ......" he continued after a pause, "I'm not terribly surprised."
Zhuo Fu: "What do you mean?"
He seemed to think of something and froze, "Could it be, are you saying that the reason why he declined your offer before was not because he didn't want to help, but because he knew he couldn't help much?"
Mu Hang was noncommittal: "Perhaps."
"I see, and I remember you saying that Shi An was unconscious when you met him in the cave, right, so that would actually match up with what he just said ......"
Zhuo Fu showed a thoughtful look, "But I do think that he may not have completely lost his memory."
Mu Hang lifted his long silver-white eyelashes, "How so?"
Zhuo Fu : "When I questioned him about his memories of dragons, he answered almost without hesitation, generally speaking, if it is only because of feelings and impressions, it is rare that one would answer so decisively and dryly, so I think that he should have indeed seen a dragon, but perhaps due to the self-preservation of his organism, it has forced him to forget this memory... ..."
He rubbed his chin and continued:
"The general impression of dragons is that they are powerful and evil, right? But the impression left in Shi An's mind is all positive, so I guess ......"
"It's possible, just possible, that it was actually the gargoyles that saved Shi An from the tide of demons.
So even though he lost his memories of this time, he still has a soft spot for creatures like dragons."
Mu Hang's eyes sank, "A kind dragon, you mean?"
"No no."
Zhuo Fu shook his head and denied it.
"I'll maintain my previous opinion that there may be a little something about this Shi An that attracts dragons ......"
Mu Hang laughed softly, mockingly, "You mean, Princess?"
Zhuo Fu: "Hey! What kind of tone is that!"
He said in exasperation, "Gargoyles and dragonslayers exist, so who are you to say my guess is wrong!"
He took a deep breath, suppressed the fire, and continued:
"Anyway, right now Shi An is the only lead we can get a hold of, so in the meantime, I'll try to see if I can jog that forgotten memory of his."
By the way, check out the Toki family.
Zhuo Fu narrowed his eyes slightly - although this family had just risen to prominence during this period of time, it was unexpectedly wealthy, so if Shi An really did have some sort of yet-to-be-discovered lineage, it should be possible to find some clues along the family lineage.
"Oh yeah! One more thing."
Zhuo Fu suddenly thought of something, and his face became grave:
"Although we've tried very hard to block out the news of the dragon's appearance, the school is a public area after all, and there should be others who have similarly witnessed it ......"
Mu Hang looked up.
"Recently, some mercenary groups have become active, and they seem to be searching for information everywhere, and even quite a few family forces are also stupid ...... " Zhuo Fu frowned tightly.
A fantasy species that hadn't appeared in ten thousand years, a giant dragon that was unique in the world, was an extremely rare existence and a fantastic opportunity that could never be found, no matter which way you looked at it.
Profitable humans could not see the terrible risk behind hunting dragons, they were more focused on the valuable dragon scales and armor, and the chance to get ahead and make a name for themselves.
Although it seemed calm now, underneath this calm surface was a dark tide, and countless eyes were waiting for an opportunity in the darkness.
"We must be the first to hunt the dragon down before we can't undo it."
Zhuo Fu said seriously.
After all, if a dragon hunting craze emerges, who knows what kind of bloodshed will be unleashed.
Zhuo Fu shuddered at the thought that those blind and foolish human beings, blinded by their immediate interests, might take the initiative to seek out that legendary dreadful existence and rush to their deaths in a hurry.
Mu Hang coldly said, "You're right."
The color of his eyes was gloomy, as if some kind of ghastly storm was brewing, and his devouring killing intent revealed a cold aura:
"The dragon is mine."
"Everyone else who tries to get their hands on it is working against me."
After dropping a sentence with dark bloody implications, the man turned to leave, his coat rising hungrily in his wake like a tumbling black wave.
Zhuo Fu: "......"
Wait a minute?
Is that what I meant by my paragraph earlier?
That's right!
You are not fucking right!!!
Zhuo Fu turns wearily and retraces his steps back into the room
Still sitting upright, the teenager raised a pair of clear, bright eyes to look over and said obediently and coquettishly:
"I've been cooperating well."
Zhuo Fu froze, "Uh ...... oh yes, thank, thank you."
Shi An crooked her head, "And when can the payment be given?"
"......"
Zhuo Fu felt his brain hurt again.
