Chapter 34 Qionglin

Chapter 33 Qionglin

At the end of the torrent, Roach fell on a solid ground, and the surrounding noise was instantly paused.He was lying on the ground, and saw many pairs of slender thighs in a dizzy moment. It seemed to be frozen for a moment. A stack of documents written in soft pen and handwriting was scattered everywhere, and a cup of tea was spilled on the ground.

Roach endured the churning of his stomach and used all four limbs to prop himself up from the ground in an unsightly manner, looking up at his surroundings.He was in a hall with a huge glass wall among the four walls. The dome of the hall was five or six meters high from the ground. The area of ​​the hall was roughly equivalent to the waiting room of a train station in an ordinary city.Depending on the placement of the workbench, it was invisibly divided into about ten work areas. Before he suddenly fell in and interrupted them, those people should be working.Now, while trying to pretend to be indifferent, the mages closest to him took the time to look at him.

Roach saw countless symbols flickering in the mid-air of the hall, and not far away, three young mages were manipulating a complicated calculation together.A short-haired girl who may be about the same age as Du Zhengyi floats deftly in the air, polishing the complicated equipment at a tricky angle, and Roach doesn't even know what it is.

If he read it correctly, liquid nitrogen was constantly churning in a corner of the hall, and an invisible barrier restricted the scope of the liquid nitrogen.A mage who made it all with his bare hands was cooling the device.

He withdrew his gaze, got up from the ground in embarrassment, and looked sourly at these mages who were like the chosen ones.Some people quickly lost their curiosity, withdrew their gazes from him, and resumed their focused work.

A male mage with a stern expression came over and attracted Roach's attention.He stretched out his finger on the ground, and the scattered papers were neatly folded back on a table. The teacup flew back into the hands of an old mage who was still in a daze, and the tea on the ground disappeared completely.

"You!" the mage said angrily, "I've said it many times, you executive mages are not allowed to teleport directly in the hall."

The two mages who came back with Roach immediately argued with him——for special circumstances, in order to save time, they chose the room with the largest floor plan in the whole building as the crossing target, which can reduce the time for calculating beacons.

Luo Qi looked around, and the two people brought by Li Xu sent him, the monk, and the package of corpses, and the others disappeared.This should have been arranged by Li Xu, who snatched away the physical and personal evidence as soon as possible, and at the same time separated the duo of Luo Qi and Du Zhengyi.Li Xu is not here, thinking about it, he must be comforting Du Zhengyi now.

Luo Qi subconsciously glanced at the weird monk, and immediately turned his eyes away in disgust.The monk shrank behind him, staring straight at him, trembling all over, as if he had seen a ghost.Of course, this also attracted the attention of the mage in charge, and he glanced at Roach suspiciously.

Roach avoided his sight, and everyone in the hall, and looked out the window.There is a snow-covered mountain in the distance, like a mirage suspended above the low mountains. The huge mountain is perfectly symmetrical, but it exists abruptly.He was secretly taken aback, took a few steps abruptly, and looked down through the glass wall.

A large frozen river reflected diamond-like rays of light in the sun. The large river turned a corner under his feet and rushed eastward in a frozen posture.In the Reach, the forest of silver pine covered the valley floor, and a long wind blew, and the icy dust raised between the woodlands sparkled in the sun.

Roach knew where this place was, even though he had never been there before. The name "Qiong Lin" is known to all the corners of this continent where magic is still spreading.The lonely mountain in the distance is the legendary holy mountain. Every child in the magic world has heard the story of the holy mountain temple.

Unexpectedly, it was for such a reason that he entered Qionglin for the first time.

"Hey!" Someone called him.

He turned his head, and there was a short-haired girl standing in front of him. The girl had big eyes and a small face, with a bit of a scholar's trance towards the real world on her face.He remembered that he was the girl who was floating in the air before polishing the equipment.

He looked at the girl without much energy, and asked her silently what was the matter.

"Are you Mahjong's friend?" the girl asked him kindly, it seemed that she just came to chat.

He looked at the girl suspiciously, and the girl pointed at the little frog sewed on the chest of his shirt.He realized that he was wearing a newly bought thick coat outside, but the shirt inside hadn't been changed, it was still the work clothes of Majiang Clinic.

"Do you know Ma Jiang?" Roach asked subconsciously.

"It's my brother." The girl replied briefly.

Luo Qi suddenly remembered Zhao Zhiyan's guesses about where Du Zhengyi was ranked sixth.

"Are you also transferred to work at the headquarters?" the girl asked him, "Graduating this year? You look quite small."

Roach was embarrassed for a while, and the girl didn't understand what was going on.He glanced back vigilantly, and the two mages escorting him had already noticed that he was talking to someone else, and one of them, who was particularly rude, had already walked towards this side.

"I hope to meet your teacher." Roach hurriedly said, "I met him once."

"Teacher Pei?" The girl was a little uneasy by his nervous expression.

It was too late for him to answer, the execution mage grabbed his shoulder and roughly pulled him away, "Talking is forbidden."

Roach looked back at the girl, and the girl finally figured out what was going on, and looked at Roach in surprise, with a flustered look on her face.

Du Zhengyi was actually not short of patience.He set up all the defense systems in an orderly manner in his mind, and then he reached out to shake hands with Li Xu, who had been waiting for him for a long time. In an instant, Li Xu's information entered his cognitive space.The information Li Xu showed him was very limited, it was just the verification password of his name and position.The secret words can be corroborated, and Li Xu's official identity is beyond doubt.Li Xu's level is also far above him, he has no way to interfere with him taking away the evidence, but...

"But, there's no need to come up and take Roach away, right?" Du Zhengyi said with a frown, and he devoted part of his energy to detecting Li Xu's energy against the clock.

"According to the committee's standards, Luo Qi is still underage." Li Xu said pleasantly, with a gentle elder's kindness in his eyes, "I know that Brother Pei probably took a fancy to this child's extraordinary talent. Eclectic. But for me, rules are rules. In our world, every child is a magical spark full of hope and should be protected. This is the supreme principle that cannot be twisted, no matter what the circumstances , should not use children."

"Mr. Li means that Luo Qi was taken away to protect minors?" Du Zhengyi asked coldly. "I will notify his parents according to the procedures. Maybe you have already investigated his files and know that his parents are relatively famous. They should have the qualifications to enter Qionglin, and they will probably pick him up soon. I believe It will go well then, right?"

Zhao Zhiyan on the side said, "Luo Qi is not completely innocent..."

Li Xu stretched out his hand to stop him, and said to Du Zhengyi sincerely and slightly reproachfully, "Of course, we all act according to the rules, how could it not go smoothly?"

Du Zhengyi nodded slightly.

Li Xu turned to the girl hiding in the distance, and looked at her carefully, "This is Guan Yushan's little granddaughter? She has grown so big. The last time I saw you, you were still holding a Mickey Mouse, that's why Bigger. Are you okay?"

Guan Xinyue flinched, and nodded slightly and tremblingly at his question.

"Poor little girl." Li Xu sighed once, "Don't worry, we will definitely find your sister."

Guan Xinyue was indifferent to his words, so he had to give up after waiting for a while.

Zhao Zhiyan smiled and said, "Is my ring on Roach?"

"I'm here." Guan Xinyue said, reached into her pocket and took out the emerald finger ring.

Zhao Zhiyan approached her a few steps and wanted to reach out to take it. She glanced at Zhao Zhiyan and threw the wrench into the air.Zhao Zhiyan was startled, at least he still had the physical reaction speed of a sorcerer, he took a step forward and grabbed his ring in mid-air, and turned his head to stare at Guan Xinyue threateningly.

Li Xu smiled generously and glanced at Zhao Zhiyan, as if reminding him of something.Zhao Zhiyan turned his eyes away from the little girl, glanced at Du Zhengyi who was observing him, and laughed cynically.

Li Xu came suddenly, but exited politely. He asked Du Zhengdai to say hello to his teacher, and gave Guan Xinyue a few words before leaving with Zhao Zhiyan.

The figures of the two disappeared completely, Guan Xinyue still stood silently, until Du Zhengyi suddenly kicked away the shovel on the ground, and she could be sure that they had really left.

"When will Roach come back?" She walked to Du Zhengyi's side, and reached out to grab Du Zhengyi's forearm.The sudden change made the people she was a little afraid of become close and reliable.

Du Zhengyi looked at the now empty corpse pit, "Aren't you afraid of him after going through this?"

Guan Xinyue shook her head, "He's not a bad guy."

"Intuition?" Du Zhengyi looked at her and thought for a while, but couldn't think of any other reason.

"Forget it." Guan Xinyue said.

"I don't know if he can return to this matter." Du Zhengyi said, "If he can return to his parents, it may be a better result."

"He..." Guan Xinyue said, "Is what that man said true? Did he take Luo Qi away because according to your calculation, Luo Qi is underage?"

"Take him away with the corpse to protect the children?" Du Zhengyi had a sarcastic smile on his face, "How is that possible?"

Guan Xinyue's face became uglier and more anxious, "But will you help him? You are friends, right?"

"I will notify his parents and my teachers." Du Zhengyi said, "But we are not friends, and that's the end of what I can do for him."

Guan Xinyue looked like she was about to vomit, she looked at Du Zhengyi anxiously, "But he...he has been helping you all the time."

Du Zhengyi was silent for a while, and reluctantly asked, "What did he find out?"

"He suspected that my grandfather was the mind mage who was sent to investigate the Lu Jinfeng incident." Guan Xinyue said hastily, "My grandfather may have found something. From this point of view, maybe Qi Yue has the same relationship with the person who killed Lu Jinfeng." problem, so Roach wanted to come here to try his luck. Unexpectedly..."

Du Zhengyi's gaze fell on the corpse pit again unknowingly. Is this what Luo Qi asked him to ask Guan Xinyue before leaving? Luo Qi was able to find the corpse because he was close to the truth of the matter.

If the body hadn't been wrapped in a woven bag, hadn't been pierced by steel nails, and if Roach hadn't told such a scene a few days ago, everything would have been perfect.
