"Miss me?"
Xu Yinian's breathing stagnates, and his heartbeat speeds up unknowingly. The cheek that was kissed just now seemed to still have a warm touch, and Yu Huai was very close to him, with a smile on his handsome face, waiting for his answer.
Xu Yinian glanced away and glanced at the wide open window of the room: "... why don't you go through the door."
Yu Huai's finger scratched the tips of his burning ears, and before Xu Yinian became angry, he said casually, "Walking through the window is so exciting, does it look like a tryst?"
"..." Xu Yinian was speechless, and said to himself that he performed martial arts with me in the middle of the night, so you felt like a tryst. He was about to ask why Yu Huai came here suddenly, when there was a knock on the door outside the room.
"Xiao Nian?" It was Mother Xu's voice.
Panic flashed across Xu Yinian's eyes, and even Yu Huai showed a look of surprise, but after Xu Yinian hurriedly pushed him away and got up, Yu Huai was afraid that the world would not be chaotic: "Why don't I hide in the closet? Cheating is usually like this Dry."
"Shut up." Xu Yinian gritted his teeth, pulled the quilt to cover Yu Huai, and at the same time did not forget to threaten in a low voice, "Be honest."
After he finished speaking, he got up and trotted over to open the door. Mother Xu outside the door noticed his slightly disheveled hair and asked strangely: "What are you doing in there? It took me a long time to knock on the door before I heard it. If it wasn't for the light Open, I thought you were asleep."
"I... I'm wearing earphones." Xu Yinian was quick to wit, saw the milk cup that Xu's mother was holding, and immediately changed the subject, "It's strange, you actually delivered it to me yourself."
Usually at home, fruit or milk are delivered by my aunt. Mother Xu glared at him, and said, "I seem to have heard someone you were talking to just now."
She looked into the room while talking, Xu Yinian was afraid that she might see something wrong, so he quickly took a step forward to cover her sight: "Ah...? Oh yes, I'm chatting with someone else."
Seeing the discomfort on his face, Mother Xu half-jokingly said, "With Yu Huai?"
Hearing Yu Huai's name unexpectedly, Xu Yinian froze in place, and reacted: "No, how is it possible, he is busy in the Demon Elimination Bureau, how can he have time to chat with me, and it is so late now it's..."
The more he explained, the more meaningful Xu's mother's gaze became. Just when Xu Yinian was about to be overwhelmed, Xu's mother interrupted him: "Okay, I'm just asking casually, you go to bed early."
While talking, she smiled and stuffed the milk into Xu Yinian's hands, turned around and left in a good mood. Seeing her brisk back, Xu Yinian was speechless for a while.
Before he recovered, another person in the room lifted the quilt on his own, and asked without warning, "Is it embarrassing to chat with me?"
Only then did Xu Yinian remember that there was still a scourge in the room, so he quickly closed the door. Seeing him in a hurry, Yu Huai simply sat up with his upper body propped up, and teased: "Be careful, don't knock over the cup. But before you go to bed It turns out that I still have the habit of drinking milk.”
Based on his understanding of Yu Huai, if he continued to talk, he would probably be laughed at for not being weaned. Xu Yinian made a stop gesture: "Say one more word, help me drink."
Yu Huai stopped, Xu Yinian drank the milk and put the cup on the desk casually. He kicked off his slippers and got on the bed, sat next to Yu Huai, hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Those things...how is your investigation going?"
Yu Huai took his hand and held his wrist casually, but there was no playful look on his face.
He looked at Xu Yinian, and softly recounted the progress of these days: "Tang Fei has committed many crimes over the years, and several high-level executives have been influenced by his mental manipulation. After Tang Fei's death, his ability was automatically released, and they realized Until I was mentally restrained."
Even though he had heard Xu's father give a general idea before, Xu Yinian did not expect Tang Fei to be so unscrupulous, and couldn't help frowning.
Yu Huai continued: "He went so smoothly. He became the head of the Tang family when he was young, and he is also recognized as the number one person in the world of eliminating demons. No one suspected him before. After investigation, he found that there were many problems. Including those exorcists around him."
"Due to the large number of people involved, it is difficult to find out the cause and effect immediately. For the time being, only the exchange of fate and the massacre of the ghost clan will be announced to the outside world."
Xu Yinian: "The other murderer he mentioned...?"
Yu Huai shook his head: "Nothing was found out, the matter related to the massacre of the ghost clan was completely handled by him... Instead, he found a pair of Qiluo's skin in the basement of the Tang family. Luo's skin was completely peeled off, and after some special treatment, it can be perfectly disguised as Qi Luo after wearing it."
Xu Yinian has heard of this kind of forbidden technique, and the process of making the skin is very bloody and evil. He suppressed his nausea, and asked what he had been thinking about since the separation: "What did the wishing machine tell you?"
But this time, Yu Huai didn't answer immediately.
He held Xu Yinian's wrist, rubbing his thumb lightly, as if he was thinking about something. Xu Yinian was keenly aware that Yu Huai might also know little about that clue. Even now, it is still difficult to find a clue to the message left by the wishing machine.
After a while, he heard Yu Huai say: "When making a wish to the wishing machine, you need to express your wish in front of him. The moment you receive the wish, the wishing machine can determine the race of the other party."
"The wishing machine told me that it was a ghost that made a wish to him."
Xu Yinian suddenly opened his eyes wide, he looked at Yu Huai in disbelief, and met the latter's heavy gaze.
The night wind outside the glass window rushed into the room. It was clearly an autumn night, but Xu Yinian felt a bone-chilling chill slowly creeping up his spine. He asked with difficulty: "Are you sure the wishing machine... isn't lying?"
"Yeah." Yu Huai whispered, "He didn't lie."
On Yaoshan, he pressed the wishing machine for clues related to the ghost slaughter, burned every inch of the wishing machine's skin with fire, healed the wound with the fog demon, and tortured the other party's life slowly. The Wishing Machine wept bitterly, half of its body almost turned into coke, and finally screamed for mercy:
"... It's a ghost family!! It was a ghost family that made a wish to me. He asked me to suppress Xuan Tan for three seconds, preventing her from using any abilities!"
"I didn't see his face, he was wearing a black robe and a mask all the time, his voice was very low, he was male... I really don't know anything except this...!!"
…
…
"The Wishing Machine didn't give any more clues later, that's all he knows."
After Yu Huai recounted the scene at that time, Xu Yinian suppressed his emotions and thought about the current situation: "If that ghost is another murderer, he cooperated with Tang Fei to plan the massacre. He has been hiding his identity all these years and has never made it public. Occasionally show your face."
Everyone knows that Yu Huai is the descendant of the ghost clan, apart from him, there shouldn't be another ghost clan in the world. But the wishing machine and the person in Tang Fei's mouth...
Xu Yinian hugged Yu Huai's arm. The body temperature of the ghost clan was very low. He intertwined his fingers with him, wanting to convey a little warmth to Yu Huai: "Xia Yan said that he issued a task to all the ghost clan that day, and sent them Gathered in a small town, the murderer is likely to be among them. Who do you think might cooperate with Tang Fei?"
Who could pretend to be part of a mission, plotting the murder of one's own kind
Yu Huai was silent for a moment, and frowned slightly. Xu Yinian suddenly realized that his problem involved the massacre five years ago, and Yu Huai had witnessed the tragic death of Xuan Tan and his fellow clansmen.
Xu Yinian cursed in his heart, and said hastily: "Since he is the mastermind, that person may have concealed his identity from the beginning and did not appear in the town directly."
"When I escaped from the town, I was in a very bad state. I didn't have time to observe the situation, but there were already many corpses piled up around." Yu Huai recalled the scene at that time, his voice gradually deepened, "If there is another ghost from that survived a massacre, and I'm not sure who he was."
Yu Huai's description was very plain, but Xu Yinian could imagine the tragic scene at that time. When he was in Yaoshan, Yu Huai learned from the wishing machine that his fellow clan participated in the massacre, but he didn't show any abnormality afterwards. Feeling distressed, he even hated the remaining murderer more and more: "He can't hide for a lifetime, he will definitely show his feet, and then—"
Xu Yinian raised his voice unknowingly, and the dazzling lightning flashed away from his fingertips. Yu Huai hissed, and Xu Yinian quickly let go of his hand: "Are you okay? I was too excited just now, does it hurt? ?”
Being interrupted by him like this, the atmosphere in the room eased a lot. Yu Huai burst out laughing and rubbed Xu Yinian's head: "When will you change your habit."
Seeing Yu Huai's smile, Xu Yinian's mood improved a bit, the corners of his lips raised slightly, but the next moment, Xu Yinian's expression suddenly froze: "It's over, we seem to have forgotten one thing, Hua Hengjing is still here Locked up in a study."
"Don't worry, the barrier will be automatically dispelled as soon as Tang Fei dies. He can run faster than anyone else."
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the tone of Yu Huai's mention of Hua Hengjing always seems a little subtle. Just as Xu Yinian breathed a sigh of relief, Yu Huai twitched the corners of his lips, and said with a smile: "I don't have any wounds on my body, it must be said that my heart has suffered a huge trauma, and he can't act like a scammer."
Thinking about the scene of Hua Hengjing pretending to be weak, Xu Yinian couldn't help laughing: "Then what happened after that?"
"I negotiated a business deal with him, and it's compensation." Yu Huai saw Xu Yinian couldn't stop laughing, his peach blossom eyes were curled up, his hands were itchy, and he couldn't help pinching Xu Yinian's face, "It's so funny." ?"
Yu Huai's hands were broad and slender, and Xu Yinian's face was so small that he could cover his entire face with one hand.
"I didn't expect him to be this kind of person before... Hmm." Xu Yinian couldn't articulate his words as he pinched his cheeks, "Oh, oh I thought Hua Hengjing was quite aloof."
Yu Huai didn't resist when she saw that his cheek was pinched by her, her eyes fell on his slightly pouty lips, and her fingers slowly slid down.
He lifted Xu Yinian's chin, stroked the delicate neck skin with his fingertips, and bit his lips.
Xu Yinian was stunned for a moment, feeling the increasing pressure on his lips, and his cheeks were slightly hot. It is obviously not the first time to kiss, but kissing with Yu Huai in the room where he lived since he was a child seems to be extraordinarily charming and ambiguous. Xu Yinian accidentally caught a glimpse of the empty milk bottle brought by Xu's mother on the desk in the distance, and his body stiffened for a moment.
As if aware of what he was thinking, Yu Huai stroked the back of his head, coaxing him softly: "Hey, open your mouth. Just kiss."
His voice was too gentle, Xu Yinian obediently obeyed the request, the entanglement of lips and teeth felt warm and tender, Xu Yinian unconsciously hugged his neck tightly. Yu Huai's movements became more and more unscrupulous, his fingers slid down his back, and he lifted up his pajamas.
A cold touch came from the side of his waist, and Xu Yinian suddenly woke up. He leaned back, and facing the emotional dark purple eyes in front of him, he said in a slightly hoarse voice: "...then what, it's getting late, we Go to sleep."
After the words fell, Yu Huai gradually narrowed his eyes, Xu Yinian's scalp was numb from his gaze, and he felt like a prey under the claws of a lion.
When Yu Huai approached, Xu Yinian was even more nervous, almost leaking electricity. But unexpectedly, the other party only smacked his lips restrainedly, only a slightly fierce force showed that he was not as calm as he appeared.
"It's getting late," Yu Huai let go of him, and pulled his pajamas back up, "Go to bed."
Xu Yinian nodded, not being able to recover immediately from the atmosphere just now, he got off the bed with red ears: "I'll go find you some clothes, there should be bigger T-shirts. There are new toilets under the sink. Supplies."
"Okay." Compared to him, Yu Huai was much more adaptable, and even patted Xu Yinian's buttocks when he got out of bed. Xu Yinian didn't expect that he still had the leisure to play hooligans, so he pulled the pillow over in anger, and hit Yu Huai's face accurately.
After washing up, the two of them lay back on the bed. Xu Yinian was very sleepy at first, but after being disturbed by Yu Huai, the drowsiness brewed earlier disappeared.
All subtle movements in the darkness are magnified, the occasional sound of wind comes from the balcony, and the breathing of the people around me gradually becomes calmer. Yu Huai seemed to be falling asleep.
Thinking that Yu Huai probably hadn't had a good rest in the Demon Elimination Bureau these days, Xu Yinian didn't want to disturb him, so he turned over quietly. He still wanted to move his legs, but suddenly there was the sound of the pillow rubbing in his ears, Yu Huai turned sideways, stretched out his hand, and hugged him including the quilt.
Xu Yinian blinked and asked softly, "Are you asleep?"
It took Yu Huai a while to answer, with a low voice: "What's wrong with you, you keep moving around."
His voice was a little nasal because of tiredness. Xu Yinian said honestly: "I can't sleep...how about we chat?"
"You don't sleep at night, let me be your chatter?" Yu Huai's arms tightened a little, and he asked lazily, "What do you want to talk about, boss."
"Let's think about it... Hey, I haven't heard much about your father. Can you tell me about it?"
"My dad? I don't even remember what he looks like." Yu Huai recalled for a while, and said slowly, "My mother said that he looks a lot like me. By the way, he is as bright as you Life."
"Wow." Xu Yinian was very supportive.
Yu Huai was amused by him, and poked his forehead: "At that time, the demon world was not so stable, and it was common for monsters of different races to fight each other. He fell into the river of death in order to save my mother. My I didn't remember anything at the time, but Nan Zhi said that my mother had been depressed for a long time before she came out slowly."
Yu Huai looked at Xu Yinian's twinkling eyes and continued: "You may not know that peaceful coexistence with humans was originally my father's idea. After he left, my mother became the head of the ghost clan and took over his unfinished work. It was his cause that led to the subsequent Act of Peaceful Coexistence."
Xu Yinian vaguely remembered that the head of the ghost clan did not belong to Xuan Tan at first, but belonged to Yu Huai's father. The monster clan respects strength, so Father Yu's strength is even higher than Xuan Tan's.
Xu Yinian couldn't help asking: "He's so powerful, is there nothing he can do if he falls into that river?"
Yu Huai's voice was very soft, but he was very sure: "That's where the undead stay. No matter how powerful they are, they can't survive."
Xu Yinian responded with a low voice, and slowly rested his head on Yu Huai's shoulder, snuggling up to him to absorb the warmth.
There was silence in the room for a moment, and after a while, Xu Yinian asked in a muffled voice, "Are you going to get rid of the General Bureau of Demons tomorrow?"
"The matter related to the ghost clan is over, and it's useless to stay in the demon elimination bureau." Yu Huai paused, "It just so happens that the opening day of the free port is coming soon, and I have to go back for a while."
Xu Yinian recalled that when he was at the cemetery, Yu Huai also mentioned this day: Every year, the Freeport has a day to cancel the gate and open to the outside world. During this period, you only need to hold the spell orb to enter the Freeport. Although teleportation spell beads are worth a thousand dollars in the market, compared to the strength requirements for entering and leaving the free port on weekdays, the opening day is already the easiest time to enter the free port. Many Yaozu will find ways to get curse beads to come and play, and the open day is nicknamed the Yaozu New Year.
One thing happened recently, one after another, I didn't expect the opening day to come.
"Then I'll go back with you." Xu Yinian took the initiative to finish, thinking of the ghost who never showed up, he was still a little worried, "I don't know when there will be another clue to the murderer..."
"He's been hiding for so many years, it's normal that he can't be found out in a short time." Yu Huai's eyes were cold, he reached out to wrap Xu Yinian's shoulders, and hugged him into his arms.
"According to Tang Fei's last statement, that person will appear sooner or later. There is no rush."
