If Jasmine combs her hair herself, she usually ends up with a single ponytail or a side ponytail for convenience.
But Xu Shenxing usually combs into double ponytails. In his words: blond hair and double ponytails are the best match!
Jasmine was obviously in a good mood, and she was still humming when her hair was combed, but she was so out of tune that Xu Shenxing couldn't tell what she was humming at all.
"Speaking of which, how is your recent academic performance?" Xu Shenxing asked abruptly.
Naturally, he wouldn't let Jasmine do nothing at home alone. He had established a relationship a year ago and put Jasmine in No. 2 Middle School of Jiangjin City. She is currently in her second year of junior high school.
"It's the same as before~" Jasmine said cheerfully, her tone of voice rising slightly at the end of the sentence.
"Wait, I remember your grades were not very good before!"
"It's okay, the teacher in charge thought the nest was a foreigner."
"I always feel that the above two sentences of dialogue are not valid..."
While complaining, Xu Shenxing also remembered the time when he just brought Jasmine to Earth.
At that time, Jasmine couldn't even speak, and life here was really tough. Even Xu Shenxing couldn't stand the shyness of being a demon king. Putting Jasmine in school by herself also allowed her to practice her communication skills with others. the meaning of.
As it turns out, the effect is not bad.
But the grades are pretty bad—from the fact that the girl learned Chinese in less than a year, she should be very smart, but she is obviously not interested in the exam-oriented education of the Celestial Dynasty, so she doesn't study hard at all.
"Landlord, what is the use of learning trigonometry?"
Jasmine turned her head and asked puzzledly.
"..."
Don't ask me this kind of thing, I also want to know what is the use of advanced mathematics for the savior. Xu Shenxing muttered silently in his heart.
"From this, it can be concluded that for the Demon King, studying is useless!" Jasmine waved her small hand to reprimand Fang Qiu.
"This causal relationship is too extreme!"
Xu Shenxing complained subconsciously, then let go of his hand, looked at Jasmine's hairstyle left and right, and was quite satisfied with his workmanship: "Okay, I'll comb it like this."
"Yeah~" Jasmine jumped off the chair, opened her hands and started running in the small room.
At this time, the doorbell rang "Ding Dong".
Xu Shenxing was startled, and made a quiet gesture to Jasmine, and his whole body turned into a black shadow, which appeared at the door in an instant, carefully looking out from the cat's eyes.
Then his expression relaxed, his momentum blew up, and he changed back to his previous lazy look, and he didn't forget to complain when he opened the door.
"You don't even make a phone call if you want to come. I thought it was the neighborhood that collected the management fee."
"If you really charge management fees, are you going to pretend to be nobody?"
The person who came was a young man in a police uniform who looked slightly older than Xu Shenxing. He grinned like a toothache: "I skipped work, and I didn't have this appointment today."
This guy is called Xiao Zhengyi, a policeman who has just joined the job not long ago, and was saved by Xu Shenxing in a certain supernatural incident before.
That incident completely changed Xiao Zhengyi's three views, and made him subconsciously think that some strange cases were supernatural phenomena, and he frequently ran to Xu Shenxing for help.
It's just that Xu Shenxing has been busy for a long time, and in the end the criminals in those cases are proved to be just ordinary people who committed crimes with some special methods. The credit for solving the case was naturally credited to Xiao Zhengyi, which gave him, a rookie who had just joined the job, a certain right to speak in the bureau...
If it weren't for this guy who can keep secrets, Xu Shenxing would bring some gifts every time he came to ask for advice, and would give some hard work money as a reward after solving the case, Xu Shenxing would have already taken action to let go of this annoying guy who ran here every day for three days. A full set of brainwashing packages made him forget everything.
"So what is it this time?" Xu Shenxing asked helplessly.
"Listen to me, this case is very peculiar..."
"Who asked about your case, what I'm asking is what is the souvenir this time." Xu Shenxing interrupted the other party's eloquent words unceremoniously.
"Um, I already said that I skipped work this time, so of course I didn't bring the souvenir..."
"Jasmine, see off the guests."
Hearing this, the girl saluted Xu Shenxing, and walked towards Xiao Zhengyi with an expression of "Understood!".
"As a majestic expert, is it really okay for you to be so philistine?" Xiao Zhengyi, who had tasted Jasmine's Iron Fist before, turned pale and said depressedly.
"Shut up, no matter who is an expert in the world, after three days of drinking porridge with almost no side dishes, he will definitely understand the truth that money touches people's hearts!"
"Although I don't know what's going on...but thank you for your hard work."
Xiao Zhengyi patted Xu Shenxing on the shoulder.
"Don't look at me with such pity, my heart hurts even more!"
"Anyway, I'll make it up next time I come here. Let's talk about this case first. I always feel that something is wrong..."
"You say that every time, but you never guess it right once." Xu Shenxing replied without losing face: "And in the end the credit is all yours."
"Don't say that, which time I didn't take out the bonus and share it equally with you."
Xiao Zhengyi said with a dry smile: "Besides, if any supernatural event happens in Jiangjin City, you will definitely have a headache, right? Also, can you stop that little girl? I always feel that it would be better if her eyes seemed to be looking for me. Where the punches…”
Grabbing Jasmine who was eager to continue carrying out the order to see off the guests, Xu Shenxing asked, "So what's going on this time? Is it another murder case in a secret room?"
"No, the situation this time is missing. Several people disappeared in the old market... But so far, they are only missing, and there are no clear victims."
As soon as the case was mentioned, Xiao Zhengyi became serious, took out a leather bag from his arms and handed it to Xu Shenxing.
"In the past, it was a homicide case, but now even the disappearance case comes to us... Next time, will you find pets to watch children or something? The task of the protagonists in novels and anime is to develop upwards. I always feel that my side It seems to be upside down."
Xu Shenxing opened the cowhide bag and took out a small stack of documents from it. He muttered something while looking at it at first, but soon his brows frowned: "This..."
"More than a dozen people have disappeared in a row. The missing people are all young and beautiful girls, and according to several reliable eyewitness testimony, those girls disappeared suddenly in a blink of an eye. I went to the field with other police officers to investigate. There are no manholes or anything like that to do that in those places. It's hard for me to believe this is a common case."
Xiao Zhengyi's eyes were serious, and he took out a cigarette from his pocket with a very natural movement, intending to smoke a cigarette to calm down.
But before he could put the cigarette in his mouth, Jasmine snatched it away.
"Smoking, no." The girl made a big fork with both hands, and said without any room for change. At the same time, she threw the snatched cigarettes into the trash can with no expression on her face.
Xu Shenxing read the documents, counted them, and said to Xiao Zhengyi with a resentful expression, "I will deal with this matter with Jasmine the day after tomorrow."
Jasmine raised her neck proudly.
"Why is it the day after tomorrow? Could it be that something will happen the day after tomorrow?"
Xiao Zhengyi, who had been somewhat depressed because the cigarettes were thrown away, immediately cheered up and asked enthusiastically.
"No, I failed my high school math, and I will make up the exam tomorrow, so I have to cram for a while today."
"..."
