Monster Hunting High School

It was already getting dark on Saturday evening.

Although the weather is still a bit chilly, since it is spring now, there is no shortage of young wizards and witches on campus, walking quietly in groups of two or two.

This makes the air on campus always filled with a charming atmosphere.

A big-tailed squirrel with gray fur was jumping around among the branches of the paulownia tree, holding an acorn. The acorn was hidden deep in the woods before winter came last year. Although spring has begun, there is no real spring yet, and most of the Qiuzang has gone away. This squirrel can only live a normal life by searching everywhere for the collections it left behind last year.

When it jumped to the branch of an old willow tree, the squirrel suddenly stopped and looked down.

Under the willow tree, several mice wearing green vests stood upright, gesturing hard with their two front paws, as if they were saying something to the young wizards opposite them.

It's a blast and worth seeing.

The squirrel hugged the acorn, its big tail hanging down under the branch, and watched the excitement happily.

"...It has white clothes and black hair, and is so tall! When it turned its head, its face was completely white and it didn't even have an eye!" Dingdong opened his two front paws and tried his best to gesture at what the two brothers had encountered. He was a monster, with a hint of showoff in his tone: "I'm telling you because I know you well, so..."

"So, this news can be exchanged for a handful of diamonds!" Dingdang Ears interrupted his companion's showoff and revealed their true intention.

"Stop it, stop it here first!" Zheng Qing stretched out his hand to stop the two mice from claiming credit, stood up straight and looked at the two witches beside him.

One is slender and has a delicate face; the other is short and full of momentum with a furry bear in his arms.

It was sisters Jiang Yu and Li Meng.

At this moment, Jiang Yu frowned slightly, her expression a little solemn; while Li Meng looked bored, and his two little hands were tossing the two round ears of the furry bear Li Neng. The stuffed bear grinned in her arms, but remained obedient and did not move.

As for why they appeared under this willow tree and met two mice with Zheng Qing, this needs to start from a few hours ago.

…

Because today is Saturday, when Zheng Qing was working in Professor Monteria’s office in the afternoon, he received a paper crane from D\u0026K. The paper crane was sent by the acting store manager Hu Wu, who mentioned that two people in the store The Rat Clan clerk met a monster last night when he was catching bugs at the school.

Originally Zheng Qing didn't take it seriously.

He was aware of the whistling habits of the two Ear brothers in his store. They always liked to call moths evil insect spirits and Kappa as the devil who destroyed the world. So after Zheng Qing received Zhihe, he thought Fox Five was making a fuss.

After leaving Monteria Laboratory in the afternoon, Zheng Qing went to D\u0026K on a whim to check the accounts. Hu Wu mentioned this matter again. Born in the Su family of Qingqiu, it had much wider knowledge than Zheng Qing. It strongly suspected that the two mice had encountered the faceless demon.

As soon as he heard the words 'faceless demon', Zheng Qing's mind was suddenly shaken, and several inexplicable pictures appeared in his mind.

The dark night, the towering rockery, the dark butterflies, the white kittens, the sound of gurgling water, and a faceless white figure.

The encounter in Professor Yao's office, and some materials he later reviewed related to the 'eyewitness talent', made Zheng Qing subconsciously determine that the white figure was related to the murderer who killed Jiang Yu's kitten last semester. After much hesitation, he finally contacted Jiang Yu.

So there was this meeting under the old willow tree.

…

In the tree, the gray squirrel is still holding an acorn and watching the show.

Under the tree, Jiang Yu was still frowning, thinking seriously about something; while Li Meng, who had come with her, was already impatient with the waiting.

"Why do you say that the shameless monster is the murderer of the kittens? There is no information at all!" The little witch hugged the stuffed bear and shifted her gaze from the mouse in green to Zheng Qing. There was a lot of doubt in her tone: "You are not I just want an excuse to chat with my cousin... You have a girlfriend, you can’t be a playboy!"

As soon as these words came out, not only Zheng Qing's face became hot, but Jiang Yu's earlobes also turned a little red.

"Xiaomeng!" She gave the little witch a fierce look and pointed out of the forest: "If you don't want to shut up, go to the library and do your homework! You haven't finished drawing the line drawing yet!"

Li Meng's face turned bitter when he heard this. He immediately lowered his eyelids obediently, then made a zipper movement with his mouth, and at the same time added angrily: "Shut up!"

The stuffed bear in her arms shared the joys and sorrows with its master, and almost simultaneously made a shut-up gesture. This made the little witch frown, and she finally stopped twisting the stuffed bear’s round ears.

Zheng Qingxu stared, after watching the funny interaction between the pair of master pets, he finally coughed slightly and looked down at the rat brothers.

"Well, I said that for no reason." He did not look at Jiang Yu, but he was explaining to her the reason why he did this: "Professor Yao did an examination for me before and found that I have a little The eyewitness' talent... is a very special divination talent that can occasionally see scenes that have happened but where there are no witnesses."

Jiang Yu interrupted him in surprise: "You mean, you saw the scene where Xiaobai was killed?"

Zheng Qing nodded, but shook his head: "I've seen it before... but because my talent is not outstanding, I couldn't capture a valid picture in my mind, so I couldn't find a clue... until this time, it The two mentioned seeing the 'faceless demon' in school, and I had a vague idea of ​​this."

As he spoke, he pointed down at the two mice in green clothes sitting at his feet.

Ding Dong Ear and Ding Dong Ear squatted on a small piece of bluestone next to the tree, raising their heads to listen to the conversation between the male and female wizards. After hearing Zheng Qing mention them, he immediately puffed up his chest and looked proud.

The little witch who kept her mouth shut immediately let out a low sneer.

This impolite behavior earned the two rats glares.

"Mengmeng!" Jiang Yu reached out and rubbed her hair, her voice seemed a little helpless: "Be polite!!"

"I didn't mean to laugh at the idiot!" Li Meng rolled his eyes and immediately found a new reason: "I just wonder why the school's guardian formation did not detect the sneaking faceless demon, but these two little mice did..."

At this point, the little witch seemed to have found the logic of the problem, and the more she spoke, the more confident she became: "Isn't this questionable? I remember that these two mice worked in Zheng Qing's shop... Why did they Will the two of them appear in the woods deep in the academy? Also, if the faceless demon can kill the kitten, why would he let them live? "
