The Witch's Taste

"Let Izumo take you to practice swords in the afternoon, hurry up."

Back at the work station, I saw Tsukimiya Suzuna eating a bag of melon seeds, and the morning drama was on the screen... Hey, Suzuna, it's working time!

"What's the matter?" Yue Gong Suzuna said indifferently, "Anyway, there is no case to attend, and no materials to write."

"There is a tough battle to be fought this Thursday." Chen Ziang reminded her.

"What tough battle?"

"That's what I told you last time..."

After explaining Xia Qingyu's account in detail, Yuegong Lingna frowned:

"Since it was the ambushes of Xichuan Meihui, then this battle must be very dangerous."

"Senior, we have to be prepared."

This statement is exactly the same as Xia Qingyu's exhortation, but the way of expressing it is completely different.

Chen Ziang felt a little strange, because the relationship between Yuegong Suzuna and Xia Qingyu was very bad, and they even directly pissed her off in the meeting, but they were surprisingly consistent in certain things.

100.Chapter 100 Xia Qingyu Zoo

The basement six floors of the new unit, the big information base.

"Unexpectedly, you would still remember to visit me." Riu Hookaze said indifferently, "I thought you were too busy flirting with your little girlfriend to forget about your master."

"First of all, Suzuna is not my girlfriend." Chen Ziang pointed out, "Secondly, I visited you a few times, but you were unconscious at that time."

"Then, the pollution spread by Mie Nishikawa spread everywhere. I ran around like a firefighter, and I didn't have time to see how you were doing."

"Oh, let me accept this argument for now." Rio Hokaze didn't intend to delve into it, but just changed the subject, "So how are you and your little girlfriend doing?"

"She's not my girlfriend." Chen Ziang said, "Relationship development...it's okay."

"Precisely define 'okay'?" Rio Hokaze said.

"I mean, Suzuna is the kind of extroverted island sweet girl." Chen Ziang said frankly, "He has a high EQ, is smart, and speaks well. I think it is very difficult for anyone to hate her."

"Based on public standards, that's true." Rio Hokaze picked up his notebook and pen, and said thoughtfully, "But what I'm asking is, what's going on with you and her."

"I answered." Chen Ziang said perfunctorily, "It's okay."

"Do you think she is too perfect and you are not good enough for her?" Rio Hokaze asked again.

"I admit it's a little bit." Chen Ziang said with a sigh, "Lixu, what I want is to start with her as friends first. It would be best if we can get together naturally, but if she loses interest in me, it's just to remain as friends." It's okay."

"I understand." Hokaze Hokaze wrote in his notebook, "Resisting gain is because of fear of losing. In fact, it is extremely insecure about future expectations, so I would rather immerse myself in the comfort zone than have too much interpersonal relationship. Change. I think it has a lot to do with the mental stress of having your young parents go missing and having to raise your younger sister on your own."

"Lixu, I just came to talk to you, not to ask you to do a psychological profile of me." Chen Ziang said irritably, "And I think this is very good now. Do you still remember that you once argued about 'love at first sight'?" Reliability? You also said that a relationship concluded because of 'love at first sight' is like trying to get rich by buying lottery tickets."

Honokaze was silent for a moment, then said:

"But I don't think Tsukimiya Suzuna fell in love with you at first sight."

"Where's the evidence?" Chen Ziang asked back, "We've only known each other for over a month! Let's stop talking about this with you, Xia Qingyu wants me to come over and get the victim's information."

"The victim's information is here." Rio Hokaze handed him a stack of documents, "The technique used by Mie Nishikawa is called the 'Secret Ritual of Corpse Eating'. It is a taboo ritual that is profane and unclean."

"What is the secret ritual of the Corpse Eating Cult...Forget it, I shouldn't know about it." Chen Ziang took the document.

"In addition, some of the victims who were sent here alive before have been rescued." Rio Hokaze continued, "Most of them have undergone memory cleansing, but six people are unwilling to erase their memories and asked to join us."

"I have also completed the corresponding human resources assessment and placed it behind the victim's information. Ask Xia Qingyu what her opinion is."

"Can the victims join us?" Chen Ziang asked in surprise.

"Unprecedented." Hoikaze said, "But Xia Qingyu is also an unprecedented superior, so I don't think there is any harm in asking."

Chen Ziang glanced at them, and there were four men and two women who knew each other.

The two girls were the two girls who sat in the front row of the bus when they went to Lingyi Town; the four boys were the four college students who were playing around when they were listening to the concert at the Budokan.

"Okay, I'll give her the things." Chen Ziang nodded in response.

After leaving the big intelligence database, he soon came to Xia Qingyu's office again.

"What do you think?" Xia Qingyu asked coldly after reading the information.

"I don't know about the secret rituals of the Corpse Eating Cult." Chen Ziang replied, "I can't comment."

"If your brain is more developed, you can think that since this is the case, I am definitely not asking you what you think about this secret ritual." Xia Qingyu said sarcastically, "I am asking you, what do you think about the six people who want to join us? How the victim sees it."

Chen Ziang: ……………

"Sorry, I haven't read their profile yet." He could only say truthfully, "I'm not sure if I have this authority."

"Do you have this authority?" Xia Qingyu said with a sneer, "Aren't I talking to my section chief, but asking the security guard at the gate for his opinion?"

Chen Ziang was speechless, he could only say a few words in his heart, "for the sake of driving away from the racecourse", and then said:

"I'll take a look now."

He picked up the materials of six people and quickly browsed them.

Tian Xiaoyun and Zetian Caixia are salesmen of a certain cosmetics company.Hearing that the hot springs in Lingyi Town can beautify the skin, I took the initiative to take a car to experience it.

Four college students, including Mr. Dashi, went to Lingyi Town to write a thesis-the tutor asked them to investigate the history of the industrial rise and fall of a remote mining town.

In terms of personality, since they are willing to take a bus for 15 hours and go to a remote town that they have never been to, it shows that these six people are the type with relatively strong mobility, but if they want to do this job, they only need mobility Strong is not enough.

Looking at the motivation again, Tian Xiaoyun and Sawada Ayaka signed up because they were "tired of their current career" and "very interested in the mysterious side".

The four college students on Oshi-kun’s side reasoned that they “do not want to have their memory erased”, “do not want their lives to be threatened by unknown persons”, “want to protect their family and friends”, “want to protect the peace of Jibei City”... In short, they basically make sense.

It's the same problem: enough motivation, and not enough.

"According to the usual practice." Chen Ziang said cautiously, "We generally don't accept applications from such non-professionals. They don't know anything about the mysterious side, and they don't have the corresponding physical fitness and professional skills."

"Hmm." Xia Qingyu asked indifferently, "Then, can the usual practice solve the dangers that Jibei City is facing today?"

"……cannot."

"Tell Hoifeng Lixu that these people should arrange training first to see if they can meet the requirements of the intelligence team's civilian staff." Xia Qingyu ordered, "Although there are your precedents, I don't have any expectations for them. But given the In the current situation of extreme shortage of people, I think it is not impossible to have a few more dogs in the department to do chores."

"Okay." Chen Ziang said helplessly, suddenly feeling that he had figured out the admission criteria of Xia Qingyu Zoo.

Those who can think are human beings, and those who can work are orangutans... Now there is another one:

It is the dog who can only do chores.

101.Is Chapter 101 here?have time?

Thursday is getting closer.

Although the ambush of Meihui Xichuan was not made public, and the department seemed to be calm, everyone's pace obviously began to speed up.

Yuki Izumo's swordsmanship class changed from once a week to once a day, and Chen Ziang was almost dehydrated every time he practiced... In Yuuki Izumo's words, you can't fight halfway with Weird and suddenly stop to drink saliva.

There is a training shooting range underground in the new unit, and colleagues also actively stay in the shooting range for additional training after get off work.

If everyone hadn't heard some rumors, what reason could there be to explain it?We didn't sign the "Struggler Agreement" again!

Only Suzuna Yuegong still spends her working hours leisurely watching dramas, watching videos, and eating snacks every day. She never cares about case assignments and does not attend work independently, like a pendant on Chen Ziang's lap.

Xia Qingyu didn't care about her... In fact, the two seemed to have reached a tacit understanding.

Every time during the meeting, Yuegong Suzuna just sat in her seat without saying a word, while Xia Qingyu just pretended that she didn't exist.

This kind of treatment is envied by many colleagues, because Xia Qingyu, a beautiful leader, has a very personality.What others need to use 10 sentences to explain clearly, she can explain clearly in 1 sentence, and the remaining 9 sentences are all used for sarcasm, satire and ridicule of others.

Chen Ziang was the only one who didn't dislike her very much.After all, he cares more about how others do than what others say.

But the Xia Qingyu who took him away from the racecourse in person back then, and now let Yuuki Izumo lead him to practice swords, these are all out of genuine kindness.

As for some verbal sarcasm and sarcasm, let's just assume that the beautiful leader's brain language area is born with defects, and she can't communicate normally without sarcasm-look, how pitiful, don't bother with her.

On Wednesday evening, after get off work, Xia Qingyu did not follow Takahashi Junsuke's usual practice of organizing everyone to go to the izakaya for the final mobilization, but went to the big information bank on his own.

Colleagues naturally felt amnesty, and hurried home to be with their families, so as not to see each other after tomorrow.

"Senior, I won't go back with you today." Yue Gong Ling Nai said suddenly.

"Oh, okay." Chen Ziang originally wanted to ask why, but after thinking about it, it seemed too presumptuous to ask.

"No." Yuegong Suzuna saw his doubts, and took the initiative to explain, "My grandma and grandpa have come to our house, and we will entertain them tonight."

"It's always good to spend more time with your family." Chen Ziang nodded.

Suzuna didn't go back with her, she always felt that something was missing.

I took the light rail back home alone, and as usual, I fed my sister first.

Although Chen Xiaozhu's meal requirements were many and strange, but Chen Ziang enjoyed it, because she was afraid that she would be autistic and refused to eat anything, and she didn't say why she didn't eat, that was a nerve-wracking thing.

After taking care of his sister, he ate dinner by himself, and then began to pace the living room, thinking about whether there were any omissions in his preparations.

In the past, there was no successful case of killing a witch, so the experience can only be summed up from the only two fights with Xi Chuanmei Hui.

Nishikawa Mie, the information that can be confirmed so far is that she can command and command ghouls, can use the extremely destructive black mist scythe, and ordinary fatal injuries cannot kill her.

So how to deal with it?

Looking back at the memories of the past fights, Chen Ziang finally remembered one thing:

By the way, why not ask Nicole!

Mie Nishikawa is the witch of the King of Ghouls, who belongs to the hostile flesh and blood camp. Nicole should provide me with information for free!

So he quickly put on his equipment and sat on the sofa in the living room to sleep peacefully.

The ability to walk in dreams was activated, and Chen Ziang came to the ancient city of Enrank. He saw nightmares flying all over his head, and he didn't know what they were doing.

"Mr. Asker." Nicole gracefully walked out of the temple and came to the center of the town square, "Looking at your temperament, it seems that you are about to face a big battle."

"Is this also visible?" Chen Ziang asked doubtfully.

"Of course." Nicole said meaningfully, "Humans' eye organs can capture light, and our nightmares can see emotions. In the abyss, these are not rare abilities."

"Are you here to exchange power?"

"No." Chen Ziang checked by the way. He only has 12 fire seeds at this time, which is not enough to exchange powers. "I'm here to ask about Xi Chuan Meihui."

"Oh, what kind of information is it?" Nicole asked leisurely.

"I want information that can defeat her." Chen Ziang said seriously.

"It's not easy to kill a witch." Nicole said slowly, "The physical body of a witch is actually easy to destroy, but to really kill them, you need to completely cut off the connection between them and the gods."

"This kind of connection, in terms that you humans can understand, is actually the 'divine reflection' that exists on her, and it is also a kind of folding of high-dimensional objects on the low-dimensional plane."

"After killing the witch's body, the originally folded divinity image will unfold spontaneously. From your human perspective, it is entering another space—let's call it the 'Kingdom of God', which is governed by its gods part of the dimension."

"For example, if the noble Lord of the Abyss has a corresponding witch, then her kingdom of God must be part of this dream world. It may be our ancient city of Enrank, and of course it may be somewhere else. "

"So." Chen Ziang quickly understood what she meant, "In the kingdom of witches, most of the rules are beneficial to witches, and there may even be lower races that help witches, right?"

"You can understand it this way." Nicole did not deny this statement, "If you are an enemy of the witch of the Lord of the Great Abyss, then when you kill her body and invade the dream world, all dreams including us Individuals in the world will all become your enemies."

"Thus, what you really need to do is to quickly invade her divine kingdom after killing Xi Chuan Mei Hui, resist all dangers and threats, find Xi Chuan Mei Hui's spirituality again, and kill her again."

"In this way, Meihui Xichuan's anchor point in your world will be removed, and she can be considered killed."

Chen Ziang was silent for a moment, and asked:

"What do you mean 'she can be considered killed'?"

"Well, it's a bit difficult to explain." Nicole's voice paused for a while, and said, "Simply put, if there is such a person: she does not exist in your world, and she cannot have any effect on your world. Indirect influence, then you can think that she does not exist, or that she is dead."

"We have communicated with other lower races. Some races believe that the witch is actually one of the incarnations of the gods, so they have incomplete divinity, while human nature is the redundant will born from the incompleteness, just like the rice field. Like weeds."

"Once you kill Meihui Xichuan's spirituality in the Kingdom of God, it is equivalent to removing the part of Meihui Xichuan as a 'human'. What is left? Of course her divinity, and the Kingdom of God."

"As one of the incarnations of the gods, after losing the anchor of humanity, the divinity will quickly collapse from your world, fall into the endless abyss, and return to its god origin. Is Meihui Xichuan still alive? ?should be alive, but she's become part of the Ghoul King, so you can assume she's dead."

"By the way, speaking of this, after killing Nishikawa Meihui's spirituality, you have to escape from the Kingdom of God in time, otherwise you will fall into the abyss."

"Thank you." Chen Ziang's head was shaking, but he still tried to write it down verbatim on his mobile phone, and then quickly returned to the real world.

Then forward all these messages to Xia Qingyu.
