The Demon Butler Is Still Motivated Today

Chapter 22

Views:

The bullet penetrated Victor's chest.

The bloodstained metal shell was firmly embedded in the floor.

The elderly lieutenant general collapsed at his own birthday party, his eyes wide open, and he had no idea what had happened until his death.

Sheng Cheng hid in the crowd and looked at the dying Victor, suppressing his inner excitement. He was about to succeed...

The blood from the old man's chest flowed along the floor, and his lifeless eyes could no longer reflect the figure of the black-clad officer.

The man stared at the dead old man in silence. A tail covered with silver scales suddenly appeared. The terrifying pressure shook the space. The conference hall suddenly sank. Endless fear lingered in every human who saw this scene.

"The Marshal is in an alienated state!"

"Emergency prepare ZYZ5 spray!"

The guards tried to prevent the worst from happening.

The panicked and terrified scream brought the out-of-control man back to his senses for a moment.

However, the trend of alienation is already unstoppable!

The next second, the sharp tail turned around and pierced through his abdomen, and the man was embedded in the wall. Dark red blood flowed down the scales and dripped onto the ground.

The metallic tail swam slowly, and the blade-like sharp scales kept scraping the man's abdomen, dismantling and reassembling his internal organs. However, he seemed to feel no pain. He lowered his eyelashes and looked at the panicked crowd, and ordered hoarsely: "Stop me."

The clear eyes were gradually covered by darkness and blood.

He turned into an out-of-control monster, but was unable to move because of his tail.

Sure enough, I guessed it right!

Qin Qi will really lose control because of Victor’s death!

Sheng Cheng huddled in a corner, a triumphant smile on his face. He looked at Qin Qi who was nailed to the wall, and felt a great sense of revenge in his heart.

He finally succeeded!!!

The excitement made Sheng Cheng's blood boil. Suddenly, he felt dizzy and the scene changed. He sat up straight and looked around in a daze.

The room was dark, the light on the screen was blinding, and the screen was covered with extremely stupid information. It was the task that he had finished halfway.

Sheng Cheng gradually recovered. Was he dreaming just now

No, Sheng Cheng's eyes were filled with self-denial. It was impossible. The feeling just now was so real that it seemed like it had happened. How could it be his imagination? !

"Zhang Ping successfully killed Weiduo."

"Qin Qi has fallen into an alienated state and is about to lose control."

"In order to protect the soldiers, the great marshal nailed himself to the wall with his tail while he still had his sanity, and was seriously injured."

How selfless.

How decisive.

This is the right result, why? Sheng Cheng looked at the unfinished work on the screen and smashed the things around him like crazy, his anger and resentment that could not be vented filling every part of his body.

"Why did it fail? Which step went wrong?!"

"What on earth happened to Zhang Ping?!"

There was silence in the dark and empty room.

No one could answer his question.

Yaxiao, who had put Sheng Cheng in an unsolvable problem, had no idea what was happening over there.

As a hard-working and responsible housekeeper, Yaxiao is very busy every day. He changed into black and white overalls for easy movement, looked left and right in front of the mirror to make sure there was no problem, opened the door and walked into the courtyard of the villa to prepare to plant flowers.

The villain's villa is so beautiful, but it's a pity that there are no flowers to decorate it. Yaxiao has finally obtained the right to decorate the villain's villa, so of course he will take it seriously.

It's four o'clock in the morning.

Demons are very energetic and can be full of energy even if they don't sleep for a day. This is one of the reasons why Yaxiao is bored and wants to plant flowers.

He walked briskly, holding the flower seeds he had picked out from the mall.

[Host, the villain will go to see Victor later. ]

The system gives subtle reminders, hoping to get the host to change his plans.

[I know.] Yaxiao happily planted the flower seeds he bought from the mall with a small shovel, [Don't worry, the villain hasn't gotten up yet, I can plant these flower seeds on time!]

After the banquet, there is no need to worry about the villain getting hurt.

Yaxiao returned to his normal idle state, squatting on the ground happily digging holes and planting flowers, humming a strange nursery rhyme unique to the demon world.

Of course, considering the villain sleeping on the second floor, Yaxiao's movements were very gentle, making sure not to disturb Qin Qi's sleep.

But what he didn't know was that no matter how loud the noise was, it would not disturb Qin Qi because Qin Qi didn't sleep the whole night.

The thick curtains blocked the light from outside the window. The man's back was against the pillow, and there was an incomprehensible darkness in his deep pupils. It seemed normal for him to not have slept for a whole night.

Qin Qi maintained this posture for a long time.

After a while, he stood up, threw the bloodshot eyeball he had been holding in his hand onto the bed, and opened a corner of the curtain.

A young man in black and white overalls squatted in the courtyard, his slender waist slightly arched, his lines smooth, his skin dazzlingly white. He seemed to be happy all the time. Even when he was working, he looked like he was playing a game, and there was a sense of joy from his back.

Qin Qi looked at him for a long time through a layer of glass, until the boy put the small shovel into the bucket, and until the other party got up and left, Qin Qi lowered the curtains.

Qin Qi didn't know why he wanted to watch the other person work, and why he didn't want to be discovered by the other person.

It was like an episode and he wouldn't take it to heart.

On the other side, Yaxiao was holding a bucket, and he said to the system with a sympathetic look: [Fortunately, I was smart and didn't turn around to say hello to the villain, otherwise he would definitely come downstairs to steal my job. ]

Yaxiao felt that the villain was standing in front of the window staring at him, but he just thought planting flowers was fun and wanted to plant flowers, but was too embarrassed to speak up.

Of course growing flowers is fun.

Ya Xiao would never give in to the villain.

system:…

Although, the villain shouldn't have this hobby.

Yaxiao will never change his mind about things he believes in, and he will stick to his opinion even if the system explains it.

He flicked his tail and walked to the kitchen to make breakfast for himself and the villain, then left the villa after the two had finished their meal.

The agreed time is nine in the morning.

Yaxiao followed Qin Qi to Victor's residence.

Lieutenant General Victor is old enough to have great-grandchildren, but he has never married. He has always lived alone in a military dormitory that is somewhat remote. Later, when he was older, the military moved him into a villa near the headquarters building.

At this time, Victor's butler, Collender, was guarding outside the villa.

Yaxiao and Kollender smiled and followed Qin Qi into the villa.

Qin Qi seemed to be very familiar with this place. He went straight into the study without any guidance from Collender.

Qin Qi hummed and sat down opposite.

The two of them want to talk about something.

Yaxiao and Kollender would not approach without a look, and left the living room considerately.

"The old man will probably have a lot to talk to the marshal about." Collender said to Yaxiao while standing guard at the door.

Today, Victor woke up early in the morning holding two boxes with a serious expression. This matter may be very important to Victor and the Marshal.

It will take a while to finish the discussion.

Yaxiao didn't care at all and smiled: "Well, then we can have a long time to chat."

Privately, I cue the system in my mind: [Fourth Uncle, how are you doing? ]

[Neither of them spoke.]

[Okay, thank you for your hard work, Uncle Four! ]

Yaxiao cut off the contact and swung the tip of his tail slightly twice to cheer for his fourth uncle.

According to Zhang Ping, perhaps Victor's death will directly or indirectly cause the villain to be injured.

Yaxiao didn't know the truth of the matter, but he made some guesses. He felt that Victor's death might have violated the villain's taboo. An out-of-control villain, whether using inhibitors or encountering something else, would always put a burden on the body and might even endanger his life.

And this is exactly the result that Sheng Cheng wants to see.

In any case, this is a golden opportunity to understand the villain's taboos. Yaxiao plans to observe how Qin Qi and Victor get along and think carefully about the villain's taboos.

After all, the effect of ZYZ5 has ended today, and the villain's taboo may be triggered at any time. If he is not careful, he will be injured, causing his demon value absorption speed to slow down.

When Yashao thought about the slower absorption of demonic value, his tail trembled.

The system also knew the importance of this matter. In order to help the host absorb the demonic value, it put on its long-treasured reading glasses No. 4, huddled in a corner, and stared closely at the two humans in front of it, fearing that it would miss any information.

But in fact, the two of them had very little conversation.

"Where are the things?"

Weiduo did not answer. There were many wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, but his eyes were still as sharp as a knife: "Qin Qi, answer me first, what secrets have you been hiding for so many years?"

"You must know something about the reports on the bodies of Clay and Zhang Ping yesterday."

Weiduo didn't know what Qin Qi was hiding, but he knew that this kid must want to solve everything on his own. His voice was dry:

"Have you forgotten your grandfather's teachings?"

"After all, one person's power is limited."

Qin Qi straightened his back and remained silent, as if he had anticipated what Victor would say.

Victor was so angry that his head hurt. He picked up the two boxes at his feet and put them on the table.

This is his last resort. If Qin Qi sees all this and is still unwilling to tell the truth, then Victor will really have no other choice.

"Here's everything your grandfather gave me."

The box was opened, revealing two sharp swords and a worn black military uniform. The sense of antiquity was overwhelming.

"Your grandfather has liked you since you were a child..." Victor chattered, trying to awaken the softness hidden in Qin Qi's heart through past memories.

However, Qin Qi did not look at these things carefully. After Weiduo took out the box, he directly picked up the box and said, "You must have worked hard at the banquet yesterday. You should have a good rest. I will not disturb you for now."

Having said that, he lifted his long legs and left the study.

Victor: …

system:…

Seeing Qin Qi coming out, Yaxiao was a little surprised at how quickly he moved. It hadn't even been five minutes, had it? Was the talk over so quickly

"let's go."

Qin Qi spoke briefly, but kept walking.

Menneiweido was furious and was about to rush out with his crutches. Yaxiao seemed to realize something and smiled, "Okay."

He turned slightly to the side and bowed slightly to Victor, "Lieutenant General Victor, the Marshal and I will leave for now. I hope you have a good day."

Considering his image in the boy's mind, Victor reluctantly took back the curse that was about to fall on his lips, and said with a stiff smile: "Be careful on the road."

After sitting on the hovercraft, Yaxiao finally understood what had happened through the system's explanation.

He was thoughtful. So Qin Qi took the two boxes and ran out directly? No wonder Victor was so angry.

[Qin Qi and Wei Duo have a deep relationship.]

Yaxiao said to the system, otherwise according to the villain's character, it would be impossible for him to do such a thing.

The system agrees.

As for the things in the box that were said to belong to Qin Qi’s grandfather, Yaxiao remembered that Qin Qi’s grandfather did not appear many times in the plot.

Qin Qi lost both his parents when he was young and his younger brother went missing. He was raised by his grandfather. Later, his grandfather died on the front line, and Qin Qi went to the battlefield alone.

Qin Qi should cherish his grandfather's relics very much.

Things turned out just as Yaxiao had thought. Qin Qi really treasured his grandfather's relics.

After returning to the villa, he carried the box and walked into his room in silence.

It seems that the villain is not going to the headquarters today.

Yaxiao thought for a second and picked up his small shovel again. The marshal returned to his room where it was inconvenient for him to collect demon points. Now he could only continue to plant flowers and decorate the beautiful villa.

However, just a few steps out of the courtyard, the alarm in the villa suddenly sounded.

Yaxiao was stunned, quickly threw down the small shovel, and rushed to Qin Qi's room on the second floor.

The gloomy room was a bit messy, with two open boxes on the ground. The owner of the room was dragging a silver tail behind him. He stood in the middle, looking up at the ceiling and doing nothing. His whole body was lonely, but he exuded an inexplicable oppression.

Sensing the sound of the door opening, the man's lips moved and he seemed to say something. The next second, his figure quickly appeared in front of Yaxiao.

A sound of breaking air was heard.

The silver tail was about to swing over in an instant.

[Host, run!]

The system screamed at the top of its lungs.

Yaxiao sobbed in grief: [Fourth Uncle, why did he lose control? Do we need to use inhibitors again? The absorption of demonic value is going to slow down again. ]

system:…

Now is not the time to talk about this!!!
