Monster Hunting High School

Zheng Qing’s tail and Jiang Yu’s ears are both very clear signs of cats.

The tavern owner easily confirmed this.

"The shop does have such rules," he looked at the young wizards with a smile: "And according to my observation, these two customers do have a very deep connection with cats, but we cannot deny that you two are closely related to our concept. Cats are slightly different... This is good, our store can give a half-price discount to two customers..."

"Very good, very good." Zheng Qing pulled Xiao Xiao behind him, took a gold coin from his hand, and put it back into the tray with a stiff smile on his face: "Half price is great. ...Sorry for the trouble."

Xiao Xiao seemed to want to say something more, but Jiang Yu pricked up her ears and stared at him fiercely.

The little wizard immediately shut up obediently.

After watching the tavern owner, waiters and onlookers disperse, Zheng Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the stiff tail behind him softened.

"Next time you do this, you will be beaten to death." He warned Xiao Xiao through gritted teeth, and at the same time picked up a small dried fish from the plate that was just served - the store's favorite delicacies are always the fastest to be brought to the table. .

"There won't be a next time." Xiao Xiao raised three fingers and said very simply in front of his two companions: "If something like this happens next time, you two bite me to death."

Zheng Qing looked at him suspiciously, always feeling that there was some ambush in the doctor's words. But the constant aroma of the dried fish in his hand made it difficult for him to concentrate.

He raised his hand, put the dried fish under his nose, and sniffed.

Xiao Xiao stared at him with a very strange and mocking look.

"I just smelled something!"

The young public-funded student was a little panicked - for a moment, he really wanted to stuff the small dried fish into his mouth, because it was so fragrant - he defended in a cover-up manner, while grabbing the small dried fish. The dried fish was stuffed into the small hole on the side of the wooden box in the center of the dining table. He forced the subject to change and complained about what had just happened: "...This is a dreamland, and we don't lack those two gold coins. Why bother with such a trivial matter?" Careful about everything?”

Although the gold coins in the Dreamland are exchanged for golden beans, after leaving the Dreamland, the number of golden beans in the real world will not decrease because of this, but the quality will become slightly older. Therefore, Zheng Qing does not mind playing the role in the Dreamland. A rich man once.

"I just want to see what the owner of this tavern looks like." Xiao Xiao hugged his black-shell notebook, took notes quickly, and explained simply: "It is said that his family has been the notary public of Usa City for generations... He can With such a mysterious black cat and a hereditary identity in the fantasy world, such a character is by no means simple..."

"This dried fish really smells good." Jiang Yu's little ears stood up in her hair, and she also picked up a dried fish. Her white fingers contrasted with the golden body of the fish, which was particularly attractive.

She also put the dried fish up to her nose and sniffed.

Zheng Qing's face stiffened.

Jiang Yu thought the wizard had misunderstood something, so she quickly waved her hand and explained with some embarrassment: "I didn't want to eat it... I just thought it smelled good, so I picked it up and smelled it."

Zheng Qing shook his head.

"That's not it," the young public-funded student replied in a low voice with stiff arms, "I touched it."

"Huh?" The witch looked confused.

"I touched it!" Zheng Qing emphasized slightly.

Xiao Xiao raised his head, seeming a little unsure, then he glanced at the wooden box, and then at Zheng Qing, getting a look of confirmation.

"I touched that cat," Zheng Qing swallowed quietly, with a somewhat excited tone: "...I bet this is definitely a live cat!"

The dried fish in his hand was grabbed by a small but firm force and disappeared little by little.

Zheng Qing could vaguely detect a wet little tongue patiently licking the oily residue on his fingertips after eating the dried fish. It was warm, with a little softness and abrasion, and the vibrations of purring came from under the fluffy hair, and it felt so cute.

Jiang Yu clenched her hands in front of her chest and looked at Zheng Qing's arms stretched out in the box with envy.

"Wait a minute!" Xiao Xiao suddenly shouted.

"Lower your voice!" Zheng Qing glared angrily. When the doctor shouted just now, he clearly felt that the purr of the furball under his hand had stopped. He could completely imagine the kitten in the box with its ears and pupils erect, separated by the The thin wooden board looked warily towards the direction from which the abnormal sound came.

"Wait a minute," Xiao Xiao remonstrated, and his voice immediately dropped seven or eight degrees. He waved his hand, hurriedly interrupting Zheng Qing's description, and signaled the young wizard to turn his head in another direction: "I just thought of a very interesting thing. experiment……"

The hair ball on the bottom of his hand began to snore again, and Zheng Qing was relieved. He followed the doctor's request and looked in the opposite direction to the wooden box.

"What experiment?" His tone softened a little.

"You keep touching the cat while describing its appearance to us," Xiao Xiao lowered his voice and explained quickly, while dragging Jiang Yu to the other side of the box: "...you can use any words you want, Repeat the words, but don't pause, don't turn your head, just keep looking over there."

Zheng Qing vaguely guessed what the doctor wanted to do.

"Well, this cat is not big, and its fur is very soft and fluffy." He scratched the cat's belly and felt its purring. He slowed down his speech and slowly described what he felt: "It is a domestic cat between a short-haired cat and a long-haired cat. It is very well-behaved. When I scratch it, it will take the initiative to expose its belly..."

Xiao Xiao stood on the other side of the box, pressed his hands on the lid of the box, and glanced at Jiang Yu.

The witch nodded.

He took a deep breath, pushed hard, and opened the box.

Zheng Qing heard the sound of the box being opened behind him. The sound paused for a moment, but his hands did not waver at all as he continued to pet the invisible cat. At the same time, he described his feelings more carefully: "When it snores, it interacts with other cats. In the same way, people will feel the lazy feeling from the inside out..."

The other side.

Jiang Yu covered her mouth and looked at the opened box in shock.

There was no cat in the box, just a pile of white skeletons, lying quietly next to the empty plate, not even a hair in sight.

Zheng Qing's forearms and hands were still in the box, and he was still stroking the cat. And what he touched was the pile of white bones.

It's just that when he brushes the area with his palm, the bones will disappear and turn into shiny, vibrant black fur. After brushing with his palm, the fur disappears like a phantom and turns into a pile of dead bones again.

Two completely opposite states of life and death appeared in front of the two young wizards at the same time.

"It's so amazing!" the witch exclaimed.

"Indeed, it's eye-opening." Xiao Xiao rarely expressed such emotion.
