"How about making a small sacrifice for your master?"
Xue Jing: “…”
"Don't worry, I won't really force you. Anyway, you can go over there and meet her first. If you really don't want to, just refuse. It's no big deal."
Li Qi patted his shoulder.
What else could Xue Jing say? Seeing that things had come to this, he nodded and agreed.
If it's just a title, then it's nothing.
However, if the other party is an annoying kid, he would not even be willing to give him a name.
We’ll talk about it when the time comes.
…
At noon, Xue Jing left the Canglong Dojo, hailed a taxi and returned to the community near his home. After buying some food and daily necessities at the supermarket, he returned home.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Xue Wan sitting on the sofa, hugging his knees with his hands, biting his thumb in his mouth, looking at Nan Jiayu who was sitting opposite the sofa with a resentful look on his face.
The cat was lying on Nan Jiayu's plump thighs at this time, with an anthropomorphic look of comfort on its face. It swept its tail as it enjoyed Nan Jiayu's gentle touch.
Xue Jing couldn't help but smile when he saw this.
Maomao has found a great backer. As long as she stays by her mother Nan Jiayu's side, she won't have to worry about falling into Xue Wan's hell of love.
"Mom, let me touch Xiao Fengwan for a while. It loves me touching it..."
Xue Wan couldn't help but say.
Nan Jiayu knocked away her hand that was reaching for Maomao and said leisurely:
"Xiao Fengwan likes me but not you, don't be so self-indulgent."
Xue Wan's mouth suddenly deflated.
She turned around and saw Xue Jing who had put his things away. She stood up from the sofa, walked to Xue Jing, hugged him like a koala, and said coquettishly:
"Ah Jing, Xiao Fengwan is your cat, who do you want to let touch her?"
Xue Jing said calmly: "I listen to my mother."
Nan Jiayu coughed dryly, her young and pretty face full of pride.
Xue Wan said unhappily: "Can you have some independent opinion? Are you a mama's boy?"
Xue Jing held her in his arms, then ruthlessly threw her onto the sofa and said indifferently, "Let mom touch you."
Nan Jiayu was so happy that his face was full of smiles: "As expected of my son, he is independent and filial."
Xue Wan covered her face and looked up to the sky: "Oh my god!!"
"Is there no place for me in this family? Someone come and stand by my side! Why hasn't Dad come back yet? Your daughter is being bullied to death!"
Xue Jing touched his chin and said, "It's hot knowledge. Dad is here and listens to mom."
Facing Nan Jiayu's smiling face, Xue Wan buried his head in the sofa in despair.
"He's dead, don't think about him."
Xue Jing smiled.
At this moment, the cell phone in his pocket began to vibrate.
He picked it up and saw that the caller ID showed someone he didn't expect.
Ning Yuantai.
The Sixth Agency Special Forces—the second generation that stopped the war.
He came from a prominent family and was one of the thirteen greatest families in China.
After thinking about it, Xue Jing went into his room and pressed the answer button.
"Hello?"
Ning Yuantai's respectful voice came from the receiver:
"Brother Xue, it's me."
Xue Jing hummed and said with a smile: "Yuantai, what's the matter?"
"Zhi Ge has a commission... I didn't intend to trouble you, but I thought you would be interested in this matter." Ning Yuantai said.
Xue Jing asked curiously: "Oh? How do you mean?"
Only then did he remember that he seemed to have accepted Ning Yuantai's invitation and became a "non-staff member" of Zhige, with the same status as Bai Ya.
"Since a few months ago, murders and corpse stripping cases have occurred from time to time in various cities on the outer ring of the Seventh Metropolitan Circle."
Ning Yuantai said.
"The skin of all the dead will be peeled off in one piece. The technique is very exquisite and no unnecessary fascia will be pulled."
"According to our investigation, the murderer codenamed 'Skinner' is a martial artist with very strong martial arts skills, so the case was entrusted to us 'Zhi Ge'."
"And a few days ago, for some reason, traces of the 'Flayed Man' appeared in Sunny City..."
"According to our investigation, the reason why the 'Flayed Man' committed the crime was most likely because of the divine relic!"
Xue Jing's heart moved and he became interested:
"Oh? Tell me more."
"[GOD-1291·Little Girl's Match]..."
Ning Yuantai said solemnly.
…
Chapter 183 GOD1291, can this be an epiphany? Heavenly Sword Killing Move Flame Continuous Color! (4K)
"[Little girl's matches]?"
Xue Jing was stunned, and after thinking about it carefully, he had some impression.
He had taken a rough look at the information website on divine relics and had a general understanding of the divine relics information that he was currently authorized to see.
Divine relics are the result of the scattered blood of God attached to various things after the death of "God".
Or an object, or a creature, or even a human fantasy...
[GOD-1291 The Little Match Girl], as the name suggests, is related to the fairy tale "The Little Match Girl".
"GOD-1291, its appearance is an ordinary box of matches."
Ning Yuantai's voice came from the receiver.
"When the match is lit, a little girl will appear before the user's eyes... This is a very rare divine relic that is half rare and half living thing."
"In the eyes of the person who lit the match, the little girl would appear as if all the beauty in the world was gathered together."
"She has a terrible attraction and addiction. In order to see the little girl again, her owner will keep lighting matches and immerse himself in her beauty."
Having said this, Ning Yuantai paused and continued:
"If that were all, it would be fine. But as you know, all divine relics have side effects, and the side effects of GOD-1291 are quite serious. Every time the user sees the little girl, he or she will become more and more disappointed, even desperate, about the reality that there is no little girl."
"As the symptoms become more and more serious, this despair will be distorted, causing people to have aversion to reality... Even in the end, in order to alleviate the emptiness of not being able to see the little girl after the matches are used up, the user will do extreme behavior to confirm the reality of his own life."
Xue Jing said casually: "Oh? In other words, you suspect that this 'skinned man' is a perverted 2D copper smelting addict?"
Ning Yuantai was stunned for a moment, "Uh... I think you can say that."
Xue Jing nodded and said, "I see. I am indeed somewhat interested in this matter... Please send me the information."
Ning Yuantai said respectfully: "Yes, I'm sorry to bother you. I will inform you as soon as I have any news."
After chatting for a few more words, Xue Jing hung up the phone.
After thinking for a while, he took out the Class B containment certificate he had just obtained and pressed his right thumb on the face of "God" on the front of the containment certificate.
Ten seconds later, the white lines that made up the "Death of God" began to move randomly, arranging and combining with each other, and gradually formed a group of letters and numbers below.
[SAD33#$dfk^&]
Xue Jing took out his mobile phone, logged into the official divine relic information website, entered the dynamic password into the box one by one, clicked login, and entered.
The serial numbers of thousands of divine relics are displayed in an array on the interface.
He quickly moved the interface downwards and came to No. 1,000, where he found [GOD-1291] and Xue Jing clicked on it.
[GOD-1291 Little Girl's Match]
[Danger Level: B+]
…
Skipping the introduction to its functions, Xue Jing looked at the experimental records written at the bottom.
[On 13th of ■ month in 2■■ year, Dr. ■ tried to light a match. After 3 minutes and 24 seconds, the match burned out. Dr. ■ couldn't wait to light the second one]
[After 3 minutes and 17 seconds, the second one burned out. Dr. ■ wanted to light the third one, but was stopped by the staff member ■■■. Dr. ■ struggled and shouted, "I want to see her, don't stop me!"]
[On November 28, after a period of compulsory isolation, Dr. ■ still had a strong withdrawal reaction]
[On the 3rd of ■ month, under the order of ■■■, Dr. ■ was allowed to use GOD-1291 without restraint]
[On the 29th of ■ month, with the assistance of Dr. ■, detailed data of GOD-1291 was obtained. When all the matches are used up, about 66 hours and 31 minutes later, 47-50 matches will automatically be generated in the matchbox. Each match will last for about 3 minutes after being lit. After being lit, it cannot be extinguished by any means, and external objects cannot interfere with its combustion stability in any form.]
[On the 6th of ■ month, when GOD-1291 is used up but has not yet been generated, Dr. ■ will kill the staff ■■■ who entered the confinement room to deliver food and eat their ■■ organs... ]
[■Month…]
After reading the information, Xue Jing closed the website, touched his chin, and looked thoughtful.
"The little girl in the fairy tale saw a beautiful vision after lighting a match."
"When this thing is lit, you can see a beautiful little girl... What a 'god' with a bad taste."
Xue Jing shook his head and walked out of the room.
"Didn't Dad say he would be back today? Did he say what time exactly?"
Xue Jing walked towards the kitchen and asked casually.
His father Xue Wen, perhaps because of the complementary personalities, is a very calm man compared to his mother Nan Jiayu.
He is open-minded, steady, generous with pocket money, respects children's personal wishes, and can swallow his pride and apologize to children when he does something wrong... Except for being too busy and often away from home, he can be said to be the parent of other families and the dream dad in the eyes of countless children.
Although he would not say it out loud, Xue Jing is actually closer to his father Xue Wen than to his mother.
"They said it's almost time for lunch... Weird, they should have arrived by now. Let me make a call."
Nan Jiayu took out his cell phone while stroking the cat.
But before she could make a call, her cell phone started vibrating. Xue Wen called her first.
Nan Jiayu raised an eyebrow, pressed the answer button, and put the phone to his ear.
"Hello?"
"… "
"Hmm... I see."
"… "
"There's nothing I can do... I understand."
After a few words, she hung up the phone, a trace of apology showing on her young and beautiful face:
"Dad said he had some urgent work to do and couldn't come back for New Year's Day. He asked me to say sorry to you."
Xue Wan felt a little disappointed when he heard this.
"Hey... Why is this happening?"
Xue Jing nodded to show his understanding and said:
"This is the adult world, there's nothing we can do about it."
Xue Wan pouted and said, "You are a minor, why are you pretending to understand office workers?"
