Human, am I evil?

Tomorrow's Ark: 007: Scared Patriarch Mark

"! Father!"

Phyllis, who was training in the room, suddenly felt a palpitation, which made the fireball that had just condensed in her hand almost lose control, turning from a fireball into a grenade, but Di Ruiji successfully stopped it.

"Master Di Ruiji, just now I felt that my lord father...my lord father..."

"Don't worry, Phyllis. I have promised you that I will take care of his safety during this time. Since I have promised you, I will do what I say."

With her strong trust in Di Ruiji, Phyllis' uneasiness gradually eased, but her condition was obviously not suitable for continuing training.

Just at this time, the maid came to tell her that the owner had returned, and Phyllis, who was worried about Mark's safety, couldn't wait to run out of the room and ran towards the hall.

In the hall, Mark grabbed the driver's collar with a gloomy face. His face was bloody from the beating. It can be seen from Mark's injured hand that he moved it.

"What... what's going on here? What's going on? Honey."

"...I'm fine, ma'am. Or, almost."

Mark took out a pistol and handed it to his wife, which was the pistol that the driver took out and aimed at his head when he was slack.

The lady took the pistol and took out the magazine skillfully. When she saw the bullets inside, her face turned pale.

"This is..."

"The bullets made of origin stones, in order to make me an infected person, they really took great pains."

Mark sneered, he didn't expect that the driver he trusted the most was an undercover agent arranged by the other party. If it wasn't for this incident, he still doesn't know how long this secret will be lurking.

"Aren't you hurt?"

Madam looked nervously at Mark's hands. This is a bullet made of origin stone. Even if it does not kill you, you will become an infected person if you are injured by it. Those people's purpose has been achieved.

"I almost got hit, but fortunately I escaped in the end."

Thinking of what happened in the end, Mark narrowed his eyes and thought about it, but he still didn't tell his wife about it.

He handed over the driver to another confidant of his, and asked him to interrogate this guy. He had to pry some useful information out of his mouth, no matter what method he used.

"I'm sorry, ma'am. I'm going to wash it first. If I let the child Phyllis see me now, she will definitely be scared."

Because of beating the driver, Mark's hands were covered in blood, and even his clothes were stained a little. He didn't want Phyllis to see this scene.

Before Mark could tell his wife too much, a small figure ran towards the hall at an extremely fast speed, and saw Mark who hadn't left yet.

"Father!"

Phyllis saw the blood on Mark's body at a glance, and thought that Mark was injured, she covered her small mouth, and tears flowed out suddenly.

"You... are you okay? Father, are you injured? Hurry up! Let the doctor come and have a look! By the way! Master Di Ruiji is the best doctor, let Master Di Ruiji come and see for you look!"

With that said, Phyllis was going to take Mark to see Di Ruiji, and let Di Ruiji check his body.

Mark held Phyllis, showing a gentle smile: "Silly girl, don't be fooled by appearance, father, I have nothing to do."

As he said that, Mark took off his suit, and the white shirt inside was not stained with blood. He showed Phyllis his hands and asked her to check them for wounds.

Phyllis tried her best to observe, and she did not find any scars on Mark's body. The tears slowly eased. She sniffled and asked inexplicably.

"Father, where did the blood on your body come from?"

"These are from the uncle driver who took you out to play before. Something happened accidentally when I came back. The uncle was injured protecting me. The blood is from him."

"Well, where is he now?"

Phyllis didn't doubt Mark's words, and simply believed Mark's words, and wanted to meet this uncle who [saved] his father, and thank him very much.

"He's been taken down for treatment now. Given his injury, it's estimated that he will have to recuperate for a long time. I'll go to him when he recovers, you know?"

Mark calmed down Phyllis' emotions, and asked her to go back to the room and wait for him, and go to her after he dealt with his affairs.

Mark went to take a shower first, changed into clean clothes, came to his office, took out a bottle of wine from the cabinet next to him, poured himself a glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

Really... He can't take it lightly at any time. How long has it been since he felt this feeling of death passing by?

"Haven't you adjusted your mood yet? When you talked to Phyllis just now, you were very calm, Patriarch Mark."

Di Ruiji came out from behind a cabinet near the corner, and Mark's pupils shrank. That position was a blind spot from him, but not from other places.

When he came in just now, he took a look there and was sure that there was nothing there. How did Di Ruiji get out of there?

Soon he calmed down. He thought about what happened in the car not long ago. When the driver fired the gun, Di Ruiji, who appeared on the passenger seat, grabbed the pistol and adjusted the trajectory so that the bullets did not go away. hit him.

Even places like cars can appear at any time, and it is not easy for Di Ruiji to enter a room like his.

"I'm telling you a joke, Miss Di Ruiji. She said she would handle this matter well, but she almost lost at the end."

"Finally? It's not yet that time, and there are still people staring at the Louis family. You still have a lot to do."

Di Ruiji took out a tape recorder and put it in front of Mark: "The content here can make your investigation easier later, but you should not make mistakes again. I can help you once, but it doesn't mean I can help you all the time." you."

"Keep it in mind."

Mark nodded seriously. Naturally, he would not be so stupid as to completely rely on Di Ruiji to solve this matter. He is the type who will not stop until he personally solves the enemy.

It's just... This time he made such a big deal, and many family children were involved. He didn't want to let those people go, but if they went to find the master of the dragon gate, that is, Wei Yanwu, let him do it. If you ask yourself to intercede, then no matter how unwilling you are, you can only choose to give in.

However, he has already shown his attitude, letting those people understand what price it will pay to move the Louis family's mind, so strictly speaking, it is not a loss.

"Did you find any clues about what you were asked to investigate last time? Patriarch Mark."

"About this, because the description is a bit general, there is a lot of information from the investigation. I have selected a few clues that fit the most. You can see if it is what you want."

Di Ruiji asked him to investigate whether there were any diseases with high infection rate or high mortality in Longmen recently. Mark thought Di Ruiji wanted to ask about Originium disease, but after being clearly denied, he took a little time to investigate .

Hesitantly, he still needs to allocate manpower to deal with those who are targeting the Louis family. There are not many resources for this, and they can only investigate these.

Di Ruiji took the information and looked at it. Except for some hospital reports, in her eyes, the only things that are worthwhile are what happened in the slums.

It's just that in these materials, the slums are not placed in the most important column. If Di Ruiji hadn't read them carefully enough, he might have skipped them directly.

"This thread of the ghetto, why not put it up front?"

"Because of the characteristics of the slums, there are large and small casualties there every day, and there are basically places where infected people stay, so I included it and didn't put it in the column that needs attention .”

The slums are really too chaotic. Apart from a large number of gangsters, there are also many infected people staying there, and people die there every day.

Di Ruiji wanted to find people who died of illness, so Mark just recorded it and didn't put it in a very critical place.

"Is it so chaotic there? Didn't the Guards Bureau plan to take care of it?"

"The Guards Bureau can't manage it, the situation is too complicated. However, some people will mention that the Guards Bureau manages those restless guys."

"Who?"

"Rat King."

He can be said to be the manager there, and if he wants to stay safely in the slums, he must follow the rules he made.

It was his presence that made the guys in the slums calm down. If there are dishonest guys, they will disappear soon.

Di Ruiji nodded and wrote this person down. He is the target he will be looking for next, and there is a high probability that he will be contacted when he operates in the slums.

"I'll just accept the information, and work harder for the next thing."

With that said, Di Ruiji walked back to the corner where he came out just now.

After a long time, Mark couldn't help but walked over. When he saw that there was nothing there, Mark couldn't help touching the wall to make sure that the wall was not fake and that it wasn't empty inside, so he was sure that Di Ruiji left fact.

"Phew, that kid Phyllis, just met such a powerful person."

Mark smiled wryly and said that he was very glad that he treated Di Ruiji very well at the beginning and did not make enemies with him, otherwise if she didn't show up today, he would be finished.

Judging by her expression, is she planning to go to the slums to investigate something?In other words, she is going to leave, right?

That's right, she said that she was only staying here for a while, and now that she has obtained clues, she should really leave.

I don't know how the child Phyllis will react when she finds out about this. I hope she won't be sad.

Tomorrow's Ark: 008: Farewell

At night, in Felice's room, Di Ruiji was saying goodbye to Felice.

Knowing that Di Ruiji would leave, Phyllis didn't keep him, but asked Di Ruiji to be more careful.

"Don't worry, if I do meet enemies, it's not me you have to worry about, but those people."

"...It seems to be like this."

Felice's cute reaction made Di Ruiji couldn't help touching her head. Unlike Padu's cat who didn't like being petted, Felice liked being petted quite a bit.

"But... Master Di Ruiji, you are gone, so what should I do with my magic? Should I explore it myself?"

Di Ruiji has just taught her a little basic knowledge, and the really advanced content has not been taught to her, so let her learn by herself?

This child is not that smart. How could such a completely unfamiliar power system like magic be so simple to figure out? Someone must guide it.

"This is indeed a problem, but I have already figured out a solution. It just so happens that this is what I am going to give you."

As early as the day she stayed, Di Ruiji had already started preparations. She knew very well that she would not stay, but in order to teach Felice magic, she couldn't keep a clone here, she could only start from another direction .

Di Ruiji took out a book from behind his back, and he knew that it was quite simple and precious data. This book seemed to be quite weighty, the kind that could directly hit people with it.

"This is...."

"The magic guide book, there are a lot of magic spells recorded in it, there are probably hundreds of kinds from low to high."

Di Ruiji handed the magic book to Felice, and then said: "Just like those who use the origin stone skill will hold a staff, the magic book can also be used as a prop to assist you in using magic power. With it, It's easier for you to use magic."

"Besides, it has the biggest function, that is, it has an assistant to assist you in learning magic."

After finishing speaking, Di Ruiji signaled Phyllis to open the magic book, no matter which page to open.

Phyllis opened the grimoire book nervously, a white light flashed, and Phyllis saw a very young girl lying there, seeming to be dozing off.

This... what is this?Phyllis, who had never seen such a scene, looked at Di Ruiji. Is this the magic assistant Di Ruiji told her about?

"She is the elf of the book, a life born with the completion of the magic book. She understands everything about the magic book. No matter what you want to know, she can give you the answer."

"This... so powerful? She knows almost everything about such a thick book?"

"Hehe~ You can ask her this question, but I think she may feel that you are underestimating her. If you don't want to make her angry, it's best not to ask this kind of question."

Because the magic book was opened, the spirit of the book, who had been in a deep sleep state, slowly reacted. She slowly opened her eyes, and a pair of wings appeared behind her, slowly flying into the air.

"Master Di Ruiji..."

"She is your future master. In the future, you will be responsible for teaching her about magic, you know?"

"I understand."

Facing Di Ruiji, the person who created herself, the book elf has the greatest respect. Although she is a little dissatisfied with Felice, the master, she also chooses to accept it.

The elf of the book flew to Felice's forehead, kissed her forehead lightly, and the contract between them was thus established.

Phyllis obviously felt an invisible connection between herself and the magic book. With a thought, the magic book actually floated up and flew in front of her.

Phyllis felt very interesting. She waved her index finger, and the magic guide book opened automatically, but the number of pages turned was uncontrollable.

As if getting a fun toy, Phyllis couldn't wait to discover more secrets, and this eagerness was pushed out when she heard a soft hum.

She raised her head and found that the elf of the book was staring at her with dissatisfaction. Di Ruiji still had the same expression as before, just silently watching her performance.

Oops!Because the relationship was too novel, Lord Di Ruiji and the book elf were forgotten.

Like a child who did something wrong, Phyllis put the magic book on his lap, lowered his head, and dared not speak.

After all, she was just a child, and she still had no way of understanding the meaning of this magic book, and she treated it more as a toy.

Correction in this area requires the efforts of the book elves. In the future, they will always accompany each other. They will not just be in a cooperative relationship, but will be as close as relatives.

"Since the contract is completed, you can go back first. I still have something to say to Phyllis."

"...clear."

The elf of the book took one last look at Felice, flapped its wings and flew into the magic book, and then the magic book flew away from Felice's lap and landed on the bedside table next to it.

"You made her angry, Phyllis."

"Master Di Ruiji, did I do something wrong?"

"Strictly speaking, no, it's just that she doesn't like your attitude just now. The magic book is different from your toys. As it has the same origin as the magic book, seeing you treat the magic book as a toy is like treating her Treat it like a toy.”

"Ah! I...I didn't mean that! Master Di Ruiji."
