The First Mist Chapter 68: Slap
On the way back, Xu Shen saw Su Shuang exploring carefully.
Su Shuang also saw Zhou Ye's body in Xu Shen's arms.
She was stunned for a moment, bit her lips, and walked over slowly.
There were no words, and the air felt heavy and stagnant.
Xu Shen didn't say anything. He continued to move forward holding Zhou Ye and soon left the ruins.
Su Shuang put away the ruins-destroying device and closed the entrance to the ruins.
Then they took out a body bag and put Zhou Ye's body in it.
"Wait a moment." Mo Xiaoxiao said suddenly.
Xu Shen and Su Shuang looked at her.
Mo Xiaoxiao walked straight to the mansion and rang the doorbell.
"Did you find the master's cat?" The housekeeper asked as soon as he saw several people, but as soon as he asked, he smelled a pungent odor.
They couldn't see the blood on Mo Xiaoxiao and Xu Shen's bodies, and they needed a Xu Eye to see it.
But as the Xu power contained in the Xu blood dissipated, the smell gradually seeped out, and even ordinary people could smell some of it.
"Open the door!" Mo Xiaoxiao's eyes were cold.
The butler was a little scared and opened the door.
Mo Xiaoxiao rushed in directly.
Xu Shen and Su Shuang followed.
Mo Xiaoxiao rushed into the mansion, and the nanny's voice came from the door immediately: "Hey, you haven't changed your shoes yet, you can't bring in shoes outside..."
When Xu Shen and Su Shuang arrived at the door, they saw Mo Xiaoxiao pushed the nanny away and rushed to the host and hostess in the living room.
"what are you up to?"
Seeing Mo Xiaoxiao rushing towards him aggressively, the male host's face changed, but when he saw Mo Xiaoxiao's petite but plump figure, and her baby-like and cute face, another thought flashed through his mind.
Snapped!
The next moment, this thought was instantly shattered by the burning pain on his face .
Mo Xiaoxiao stood on tiptoe and slapped the man in the face with such force that his face quickly turned red, leaving a bright red slap mark.
"you!"
The man covered his face, his head was a little dazed.
"What are you doing?! You're hitting someone!"
The hostess next to her reacted and screamed.
With a snap, the scream was interrupted by a crisp slap.
Mo Xiaoxiao looked at the two people who were covering their faces coldly, with a cold gaze, and said: "You are just a country bumpkin from the bottom city. Don't think that you can look down on others just because you have a little money!"
"You, you actually dare to hit us!" The man trembled with anger.
"Because you concealed information, our captain is dead!" Mo Xiaoxiao stared at him, his eyes as sharp as a sword: "You killed a captain, do you know what responsibility you will bear?!"
"I can afford it!" the man said angrily.
With a slap, Mo Xiaoxiao slapped him in the face again.
"I told you, don't think you can look down on others just because you have a little money!" Mo Xiaoxiao stared at him: "If money can be used to measure, my money is enough to buy both of your lives!"
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"My last name is Mo!"
Mo Xiaoxiao stared at him: "If you really think you are capable, you should be qualified to understand what I say!"
Last name Mo?
The man was angry, but suddenly something like lightning struck his mind and he was shocked.
Mo... is that the Mo from the inner city? !
His face trembled, not daring to tell whether the person in front of him was telling the truth or not. Even if he was an imposter... the fact that he knew this kind of information was enough to show that he was not simple!
"Is my last name Mo so great? My last name is Tang!"
The hostess next to them covered her aching cheek and looked at them with resentment: "Aren't you just a dog that specializes in dealing with those unclean things? You stinky rats living in the sewers, I will definitely kill you!"
The man was startled and quickly grabbed his wife, saying, "It works if their surname is Mo, but it won't work if your surname is Tang!"
"What are you doing!" The wife looked at her husband in disbelief. She was beaten, but he actually pulled her?
The man of the house winked quickly.
"Don't touch me!" said the hostess angrily.
Mo Xiaoxiao snorted coldly, and the anger in her heart came out. She knew that it was meaningless to continue talking to this person in front of her.
But no one noticed that when the hostess finished speaking, a cold light flashed across Xu Shen's eyes at the door.
“Meow~~!”
At this moment, a slight cat's meow interrupted the people in the living room. Everyone was startled and looked towards the sound.
Then I saw a gray kitten jumping in from behind the potted plants on the balcony outside the window.
When the hostess saw the kitten, she was surprised and rushed forward to hug it.
The kitten also obediently jumped into the hostess's arms and rubbed her face affectionately.
"It stinks! Where have you been? You made your mother so worried!" The hostess kneaded the kitten's hair with anger and joy. When she felt the dirt and fallen leaves from outside on its hair, she immediately helped to brush it off without any disgust.
"Meow……"
The kitten is acting coquettishly.
The hostess picked it up and smelled it, she smelled a different scent and immediately realized that the little thing had run away to have an affair.
She turned around and glared at Mo Xiaoxiao, then without saying anything else, she picked up the kitten and went to wash it.
The male host breathed a sigh of relief and said to the people in front of him: "Now that we have found it, your mission is over. Go back."
Anger surged in Mo Xiaoxiao's eyes, but she eventually restrained herself and turned away.
Xu Shen and Su Shuang were both staring at the scene in a daze, feeling both ridiculous and extremely sad.
Zhou Ye is dead.
Died on the small mission he mentioned when he set out.
In order to find a cat, a captain was killed, but in the end the cat was safe and sound.
The two had complicated expressions on their faces which changed for a moment before finally falling silent and expressionless.
They came out woodenly, carrying Zhou Ye's body bag, and went to the car outside the mansion with Mo Xiaoxiao.
Xu Shen doesn’t know how to drive, and Su Shuang’s arm was torn off and couldn’t be found, so Mo Xiaoxiao has to drive.
"People like this should be severely punished." Mo Xiaoxiao said while driving, "You have concerns, but I don't. I came to Dicheng for a temporary position. Unfortunately, no matter how many slaps you give, you can't wake up the hearts of people like this. Even if you can wake up one, there are too many."
"In short, when you go out, it is most important to protect yourself."
She rarely talked about things that had nothing to do with the market.
Su Shuang had been saved by her before, so her attitude towards her was no longer as repulsive as before. She said in a depressed tone, "I've known about this kind of thing for a long time, so I want to go to the inner city. It's too hard in the bottom city. We are all from the bottom city, but we still trample on each other ..."
She smiled self-deprecatingly.
Mo Xiaoxiao whispered, "It's the same if we go to the inner city. The inner city is not as beautiful as you think. The fighting is more intense, and families may be wiped out."
Su Shuang was stunned.
Xu Shen's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked, "Isn't the order in the inner city better? If we exterminate the entire family, wouldn't it cause too much noise?"
"Oh, so what if there's a lot of noise? As long as you're clean, who can catch the murderer without evidence? There are too many cases where there's no evidence. You can just classify it as a supernatural event, or even blame it on Xu."
Mo Xiaoxiao snorted and said, "To take a step back, even if the evidence is irrefutable, as long as you have the power, you can cover it up. Moreover, if you really offended someone, it is normal to kill the whole family. Otherwise, wouldn't you leave a root of trouble for the family to grow up and take revenge?"
"This kind of thing is relatively rare, right?" Su Shuang asked.
Mo Xiaoxiao nodded: "It's okay. Anyway, I don't hear it much, only occasionally."
Su Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, then thought of something, sighed, and said, "The captain is dead. Fortunately, he had already made preparations. He joined the Black Light Religion. His daughter will be raised by the religion in the future. When she grows up, she will probably inherit the captain's life and become a ruins slayer in the religion."
Xu Shen was stunned. It seemed that Zhou Ye had also invited Su Shuang.
"Are you joining in too?"
"without."
Su Shuang shook her head slightly. "I don't want to take any more jobs at the Xumi Bureau. Who knows if I'll die the next time I take part in a mission? I just want to save enough money as soon as possible and retire early."
“Can I save enough money to retire?”
"Well, in addition to accumulating first-class merit, you can also retire by paying 5 million Luka coins."
Su Shuang said: "Those big shots involved in the events of the ruins are just buying this position with money, so that they don't have to be members of the ruins, and they don't have to work in the civilian department."
Xu Shen looked at her and suddenly thought of what happened that night. He seemed to have got the answer in his heart.
Indeed, the execution of a mission is always uncertain, and no one knows whether an accident will happen to them next time.
Like this time, we were just carrying out a small mission, but the whole team was almost wiped out.
The most secure way to retire and enjoy your old age is to avoid getting involved.
Not long.
Everyone returned to the Xumi Bureau.
In a blink of an eye, there were only three of them left on the 17th floor.
When the transfer order comes, Xu Shen will also leave, and then only Su Shuang and Mo Xiaoxiao who just joined will be left.
All the old faces in the team were gone. Su Shuang had sad eyes. She was lucky to have saved her life this time, but she didn't know if she would be so lucky next time.
"Your arm..."
"I can only get a steam-powered prosthesis." Su Shuang smiled bitterly: "If being disabled allows retirement, I guess many people would choose to be disabled."
Xu Shen nodded slightly. Whenever he saw corpses being eaten by Xu, he would choose to escape.
"Fortunately, the bureau will pay for this expense." Su Shuang sighed.
The three men sent Zhou Ye's body to the funeral department of the bureau.
The people in the funeral department seemed to be used to it and took over naturally, made the registration, and then informed them of the burial date.
night.
Xu Shen did not train, but lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Late at night, he got up, changed into ordinary clothes and went out.
