The Witch's Taste

Xia Zili fell silent.

After an unknown amount of time, she asked blankly:

"So, I'm a hero who saves lives?"

"Yes, you are the hero who saved me." Chen Ziang followed her tentatively, "You are doing the right thing."

Xia Zili stood there stunned, and suddenly wiped away the tears on her face, and began to drink hot milk in small sips.

It's finally done... Chen Ziang heaved a sigh of relief.

So, tell Hoshino Norika first?After all, the time seems to be a bit late.

Wait, Hoikaze said that it's a mess outside, is it really okay to let Xia Zili go back like this now?

In the past, according to his conservative habits, he would definitely not take other women to spend the night at his home, after all, it would not be good for his reputation.

But at this time, Chen Ziang already understood that he should stick to his heart: if he was asked to choose between a girl's "famous festival" and "safety", he would definitely choose the latter—so he had to confirm the outside situation first. .

At this moment, Suzuna Tsukimiya also called:

"Senior? I was busy just now and didn't hear your ringtone. What's wrong?"

"How is the situation over there?" Chen Ziang asked confirmingly, "I was watching the debate meeting, and then I saw the party stick suddenly broke the news over there... Is this person fucking sick? Is he crazy to want to be famous?"

"Sigh." Suzuna Tsukimiya also sighed and said, "What's worse, he may not have thought it on a whim, but planned it long ago."

"Half an hour after the TV station cut off the program, a demonstration broke out outside, and it has reached 20 people."

143. Chapter 142 The Mother Only I Can See

Chen Ziang confirmed and asked:

"Are those who participated in the demonstrations demanding to disclose the truth about Mie Nishikawa's incident?"

"At first it was." Tsukimiya Suzuna said with a sneer, "but soon the slogan became promoting equal rights."

"Promoting equal rights?" Chen Ziang felt incredible, "Seriously?"

Did these people take a walk on the street to digest their food when they were full and had nothing to do?

"Yes, it's that outrageous." Yue Gong Suzuna said hehe, "If there is no force behind this organization, I will eat the phone."

"Is it a human rights observer?" Chen Ziang asked cautiously.

"No, it's even worse." Suzuna Tsukimiya sighed and said, "It's said to be the Federal Intelligence Agency. In short, senior, it's best not to go out tonight, because the outside is already in a mess and the traffic is basically paralyzed."

"It's said that the public security department is completely neglecting the other. Even the manpower of the traffic and fire department has been seconded temporarily. I don't know how long they will work all night... I can only say that it is fortunate that we have already separated from the public security system in advance. .”

"Okay, I got it." Chen Ziang said in a deep voice, "Be careful too."

After hanging up the call with Yuegong Suzuna, he looked at Xia Zili again.

The latter's mood has stabilized a lot, just holding a cup of hot milk in a daze.

"Xia Zili." Chen Ziang asked considerately, "There is a demonstration team outside now, and the traffic has also been paralyzed."

"Are you going to let your agent take you back, or stay at my house temporarily for one night?"

"If you want to go back, I'll call her now and ask her to arrange someone to pick you up."

"But if you want to stay, you can live in our guest room on the second floor. Xiaozhu has extra bedding over there."

Xia Zili was silent for a moment, then said:

"Since the car can't drive outside, even if I tell Sister Ji Xiang, she can't send a car here."

"Theoretically so." Chen Ziang nodded and said, "But it doesn't rule out other modes of transportation, for example... Maybe your office has a helicopter?"

"Then landed in the river outside." Xia Zili tried her best to smile, as if she wanted to play a joke to ease the atmosphere, but she looked a bit reluctant, "Would it be too much trouble for you to live here?"

"No." Chen Ziang waved his hand, "After all, the situation is special tonight, if I don't let you stay here, it would be a little unreasonable."

"Then bother." Xia Zili nodded.

After placing Xiaozhu, Chen Ziang took Xia Zili to the guest room and introduced:

"I've changed all the bedding for you. The bathroom is on the first floor. The key is on the doorknob outside. Remember to remove the key and lock the door at night. Also, don't forget to tell your agent so she won't worry. .”

"En." Xia Zili nodded in response.

Chen Ziang returned to the room, changed into pajamas after washing up, lay on the bed, and began to read the messages on his mobile phone before going to bed.

The night shift team of the intelligence team has already located the location of the four gangsters and is rushing over overnight to deal with them, but they haven't arrived yet because of the traffic jam.

Xia Qingyu forwarded the notice from her work in the work group. In short, it said that it was very chaotic outside tonight. Everyone should be careful not to go out, not to make any comments on the Internet, and not to turn off the phone when charging, not to fly, and to stay in touch at any time.

Yuegong Lingnai didn't contact him, probably because she was still busy, and Chen Ziang didn't bother her, so he put his phone on the cabinet to charge, and then pulled up the quilt to sleep.

I do not know how long it has been.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Chen Ziang opened his eyes in a daze, and asked:

"Who? Xiaozhu?"

"It's me." Xia Zili's voice came from outside, "I can't sleep."

Miss, it's okay if you can't sleep, I have to go to work tomorrow!

But thinking about how this girl did so bravely to save herself last night, that she even accidentally killed someone, it's normal that she can't sleep tonight... Chen Ziang suppressed his drowsiness and crawled out of bed.

Opening the door, there was indeed Xia Zili in pajamas outside.

Brilliant blond hair curled up slightly, draped softly over the shoulders. Under the light and thin silk pajamas, there were slender arms as white as jade—but not the healthy and vigorous whiteness of Tsukimiya Suzuna, but some kind of hazy, dreamy The cool, translucent, white complexion is so delicate that it doesn't look like a human being.

Because the clothes provided before were too small, this time Chen Ziang did not underestimate her figure, and the pajamas he gave were also the largest size, which perfectly covered her body curves.

Only the bottom of the hem of the nightdress exposed a pair of clean and lovely little feet.

"Where are your slippers?" Chen Ziang asked in confusion.

"I forgot to wear it." Xia Zili said shyly.

Chen Ziang then went to the guest room, fetched her slippers and came over:

"Put it on, the floor is cold at night, be careful of catching cold."

Xia Zili put on her shoes and followed Chen Ziang downstairs to the living room, only to hear him ask:

"Why can't you sleep?"

"Chen Ziang." Xia Zili sat on the sofa and asked cautiously, "Don't you ask me about the origin of that 'baa-baa'?"

"It's my consistent principle." Chen Ziang replied, "If someone else has something sensitive and doesn't want to mention it, then I won't get to the bottom of it."

"Oh." The half-elf girl was a little disappointed.

"But since you took the initiative to mention it." Chen Ziang sat down on the sofa next to her, "Then let me ask: what is that?"

"Baa baa is the name I gave him." Xia Zili immediately mustered up her courage and replied, "His real name is 'Black Cub'."

"He...is a gift from my mother."

"Huh?" Chen Ziang was taken aback, "So your mother...is also this, a person with special abilities?"

"No." Xia Zili shook her head, "My mother has passed away."

"Sorry." Chen Ziang rubbed his hands anxiously and said, "I shouldn't have mentioned this, would you like something to drink?"

"Thank you, no need." Xia Zili continued, "My mother passed away shortly after I was born, so I don't actually have much memory of her."

"But not so long ago, she reappeared in front of me... in a form that only I could see."

Chen Ziang became thoughtful.

"Does it sound like a mental illness?" Xia Zili sighed, "It's the same as before, maybe there's something wrong with my mind..."

"No, no, no." Chen Ziang interrupted her, "Your mother may not be an illusion. In fact, I shouldn't tell ordinary people about this, but since you have mastered the special summoning power, there are some things you don't know It's more dangerous."

"Xia Zili, have you heard of 'Abyss'?"

144. Chapter 143 First involvement with the mysterious Xia Zili

After listening to Chen Ziang's general narration, Xia Zili woke up like a dream.

It seemed that a mysterious and magnificent world was slowly unfolding before her eyes.

"So." She seemed to realize something, and said in a trance, "My mother is not dead? Her spirituality has returned from the abyss, guiding me to become a hero?"

"Uh..." Chen Ziang didn't know the origin of this mother phantom, let alone why Xia Zili came to such a conclusion, but he still patiently comforted her, "Maybe, maybe not."

"But what matters is what your heart is and who you want to be."

Xia Zili pondered.

What is your own heart?

I chose to embark on the road of creating music, just to respond to my sister's expectations, to make my sister recognize me more... that is not my heart.

If you have to rule out all external factors, then I...

I want to help more people, I want to protect them, I want to be everyone's hero.

Even if I accidentally kill someone, the premise is to save others.I did not violate my heart, so I have no regrets.

"I understand." Xia Zili showed a relieved smile, "Thank you, Chen Ziang, I can sleep well tonight."

"Go to sleep." Chen Ziang said softly.

Watching Xia Zili go up to the second floor and back to the guest room, Chen Ziang also heaved a sigh of relief.

In any case, as long as she figured it out.

However, another thought soon popped up in my mind:

Has she really figured it out?

--------

The next morning.

After Chen Ziang finished washing, he left the bedroom and took care of his younger sister to get up again.

Then he came to the door of the guest room, but found that the door was open, and he could see Xia Zili who was sleeping soundly inside, with his characteristic blond hair spread out on the pillow.

With a slight thought, Chen Ziang decided not to disturb her, but went back to the kitchen to make breakfast, fed it to his sister, and left a portion for Xia Zili by the way.

Write her a note and ask her to find her agent after breakfast and ask her to send a car to pick her up.

Arriving at work by the light rail, Chen Ziang came to the office and found that neither Yuegong Suzuna nor Xia Qingyu came to work.

The offices to the left and right were empty.

After working in front of the computer for a while, there was a knock on the door outside.

It's Rio Hokaze, head of the Information Section.

"The four punks from yesterday have all been memory cleaned." She walked into the office and put the report on the table.

"Thank you, Lixu." Chen Ziang nodded.

"We got some very interesting information." Rio Hokaze continued, "First of all, these five people took advantage of last night's commotion and wanted to go to a nearby shopping street to make a fortune. It’s time to change my mind... They are all narrow-minded nationalists, and they have listened to the underground radio station of the Democratic First Party for a long time, so they have a certain hatred towards the Lu ethnic group.”

"I see." Chen Ziang nodded and said, "It's just a coincidence."

"It's not entirely a coincidence." Suokaze Rio said with a smile, "I suggest you remove the house number on the gate of your courtyard wall. 'Chen Zhai', you can tell that you are from the Lu ethnic group by looking at this surname. And Even among islanders, only the elderly know how to use house numbers, so many criminals involved in telecommunications fraud can easily get hold of your relevant information, which is very unsafe."

"That was left by my dad." Chen Ziang said with a sigh, "I will take it away, what else?"

"And there's that weirdness." Rio Hoikaze asked with great interest, "Chen Ziang, why didn't I know that you have such a powerful friend? Summoning a weirdness that can kill people easily is not something that ordinary mystics can do." did it."

"Her situation is quite special, and she didn't know the existence of the mysterious side before." Chen Ziang said in a low voice, "I can't disclose her identity information, but there are indeed some things worthy of attention about her, maybe you can explain it for me . . . you're not going to tell the story, are you?"

"Of course." Rio Hokaze became interested, "Tell me?"

"She can see the vision of her dead mother." Chen Ziang said in a deep voice, "and the vision will guide her to do some things, such as saving people, and the summoning power is also given to her by the vision."

"Hmm." Rio Hokaze pondered and said, "First of all, we have to rule out the possibility that 'this illusion is a weirdness', didn't you notice something wrong with your inspiration?"
