"Put out your hand," Cecily said.
Qiao Xiu stretched out his hand generously. Anyway, Qiao Xiu didn't do anything guilty, and there was nothing to hide in front of this monitor.
Even if any of the female magicians in the room were discovered, Cecily would only ask Joshua to send this human back to the human world out of consideration for the safety of the imperial city.
That's right... deportation, not outright execution.
Cecily is one of the leaders of the conservative faction in the demon world, and as a watcher, she has always hated senseless killings.
Joshua's hand was held by Cecily, and she pulled Joshua's sleeve directly to reveal her arm.
Qiao Xiu had a sense of seeing the old Chinese doctors helping him feel his pulse when he went to see a doctor.
"Magic is not disturbed..."
Cecily put her hand on Joshua's chest again, this action brought her closer to Joshua, Joshua could even smell the body fragrance coming from her...
Kind of like a combination of gooseberry and lilac.
"Fortunately, there are no sequelae left."
"Sister, what do you want to do?" Joshua pulled up his sleeve and glanced at Cecily.
What Cecily is doing now is not so much searching for prisoners as it is to check Joshua's physical condition.
"Have you forgotten the accident that caused your magic power to go berserk last time because of your experiment?"
"of course not."
Qiao Xiu remembered that this was the memory of the third prince before he went to the human world. He couldn't control his magic power during an experiment, and he was almost swallowed up by chaos. Although he finally controlled the magic power of the runaway, his soul and body were not. suffered great damage.
Since that accident, the third prince has made up his mind to go to the human world to learn new magic, and his memory of Joshua after that has become a little fuzzy.
I vaguely remember that when the third prince used his last soul power to summon Zenas, the broken soul met himself in another world.
"Don't worry, I'm recovering well."
Although Cecily still had a serious face, Joshua could still see the worry in Cecily's eyes, so he opened his mouth and hoped to appease her unnecessary worries.
"Don't… don't do it again."
Cecily adjusted the collar for Joshua and said to Joshua in a serious tone.
"Um."
"I still have work to do. Get rid of the human in your room and the human you sent to prison as soon as possible. The prison is not your hotel."
The work scope of the watchers is not in the imperial city. They wander around the darkest corners of the city all the year round, dealing with all kinds of vicious criminals.
So Cecily came back to the imperial city to see Joshua.
Joshua watched Cecily's leaving back, and found that the relationship between the third prince and his siblings was not so tense.
Even Qiao Xiu still has memories of his eldest brother teaching the second sister and the third prince learning magic when he was a child.
Aside from the identities of the royal family and the demons, it is completely a very ordinary family, supporting each other and taking care of each other.
But the relationship... became thinner and thinner as the siblings grew up.
Qiao Xiu thinks that everyone is like this. Are they cold-blooded enough to ignore family affection
Joshua felt that the answer was no.
The eldest brother Noggs grew up in the fortress, and armed himself as a general, so that one day he could use war to make humans recognize the status of the demons.
On the other hand, the second sister inherited the management rights of the capital and put on a mask called a watcher. In this capacity, she managed the order up and down the capital, but she maintained a conservative attitude towards human relations, preferring more hope than war. maintain the existing peace.
For the sake of their respective ideals, they became adults and had to stand on opposite sides. Joshua could already foresee the bloodshed two years later because of the inheritance rights.
From Joshua's point of view, both winners and losers are pathetic.
The saddest is the one who has to take action against his own relatives for the sake of power.
Qiao Xiu believes that there is still the possibility of change. It is not difficult to change a person's thinking, as long as there is a suitable opportunity.
Just like many people can believe in love again after watching "Titanic".
Whether it is movies, music, or novels, the essence of birth is to give the audience a kind of power.
The time for literature and art came to an end, and Qiao Xiu felt that the legs of the magician should be numb by now.
"People have left, Miss Ciri."
Joshua closed the door of his room, came to the bookshelf, and found a parchment scroll on the far left of the bookshelf.
"Are you going to put all those humans to death?"
Ciri came out from behind the bookshelf, she had been eavesdropping on Joshua and Cecily's conversation just now.
She clearly heard the "deal with" the three executioners' speeches.
"Execution? It's too much trouble, I'm going to let them all go."
"Let go...?"
Ciri asked again and again to make sure she heard correctly.
"There is a shortage of food in the demon world. I have no reason to raise a group of unfamiliar humans. In a few days, I am going to put those villagers back to their original villages, or in other words, I will rescue them myself."
There were fifty-seven of those humans that Zenas had brought back from the Demon Realm. Except for Ciri who escaped by chance, the others were all locked in the Demon Realm's prison.
Most of these humans are the survivors of the village that was ransacked by the robbers. Qiao Xiu has already thought about how to deal with these villagers.
That is to put them all back! It should not be said to be released, it should be said that Qiao Xiu personally rescued them from the captivity of the devil!
The movie "Beauty and the Beast" has a total of three big scenes, the town at the beginning, the snowy mountains on the way to the castle, and the castle.
The town where Belle lives is second only to the castle in the main scene.
There will definitely be townspeople living in the town, all of which belong to the extras, although the extras have a pitiful role in the crew.
But for a good movie, a group of excellent extras is essential, and they are one of the most important existences to create the overall atmosphere of the movie.
In this world where there are no actors, where to find extras
Even if Joshua randomly pulled some human beings to make cameo appearances, there must be some problems with their acting skills.
Then the final conclusion is very simple, a person's acting skills are always the best when playing himself!
Joshua decided to use those villagers and that village as "the town where Belle lives".
In "Beauty and the Beast", there is also a hunter named "Gaston" living in the town. He is tall and handsome and is popular with the residents of the town. He has been trying to pursue Belle, but because of his rudeness Arrogant, has always been unacceptable to Belle.
Gaston is also an indispensable character in this play. Joshua is no longer going to look for other actors, and Joshua directly went to town to play this role.
And then Qiao Xiu only needs to play a human hunter who has strayed into the demon world, broke into the prison where the villagers were imprisoned, and rescued them all.
The villagers' worship of Qiao Xiu, or the role of "Gaston", came naturally.
Life is like a play, and play is like life. The saying is true.
Maybe the villagers won't know that they are living in the story written by Joshua after the filming is over.
But as long as the story is happy enough, even if you know it, it doesn't matter, right? For example, the female magician in front of him.
"Then you can rescue me, too!"
Ciri began to regret why she used that ring so recklessly, it was her meal money for three years.
"Unfortunately, it doesn't work."
Joshua shook his head in disapproval.
"Why! I was also tied up by you." Ciri was about to cry.
"Because you know too much."
Qiao Xiu thought for a while, and answered her with a very classic line of dialogue.
