Monster Hunting High School

The black cat wanted to ask a few more questions, but suddenly, a voice came from not far behind him and asked: "Who is there!"

It followed the sound and saw a faint green light swaying outside the dark forest. Along with the faint light, there was a slight wave of magic spreading in all directions, like a spring breeze blowing on the face.

It is the irritating lantern of the night patrol.

With just one glance, the black cat could tell where the light green came from. Then he realized that the subtle magic fluctuations should be the patrol members using detection magic. It must be that the wizard on night patrol noticed the small movement deep in the forest, so he briefly checked it.

It turned back, wanting to comfort the masked man as a person who had been through it, but was surprised to find that the masked man who had been in front of him had disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, at the black cat's feet, in addition to the two parchment certificates, there was also a long and narrow white note. The cat's eyes flickered, and by the dim moonlight falling between the treetops, he could see the scrawled writing on the note. clear and distinct--

"It's still the same place at 11:30 pm on Jiaxu day of Guiyou month."

The Jiaxu day of the Guiyou month is September 26th, which is the eighth day of the eighth lunar month, which is this Saturday. As for 'this place', the black cat raised his head, looked around, and looked at the lush trees that looked similar around him. Finally, he raised his hind legs uneasily, leaving a wet trail next to the tree hole where Brother Ear disappeared. Strengthen memory.

Normal cats would not use this strange posture.

But after seeing too many black cats in the animal world, I always feel that this behavior is very ritualistic.

The footsteps of the night patrol wizards gradually approached.

The black cat flicked a few pieces of thick parchment beside his paw, picked it up with one paw, and stuffed it into the gray cloth bag hidden under his chin. Then he flicked his tail, turned around and disappeared quickly among the lush bushes.

Behind him, there were faint confused murmurs from the patrol members, but it had nothing to do with the black cat.

…

…

Zheng Qing did not mention the experience of turning into a cat on Wednesday night—especially the matter about the Seven Deadly Sins—to anyone, including Xiao Xiao, after returning to the dormitory.

It wasn't that he intentionally hid anything from his companions.

It’s not that his interest in the Seven Deadly Sins of Nalaoshizi outweighed his vigilance.

But for a reason that even he himself didn't quite believe - he forgot - yes, less than five minutes passed after Zheng Qing stuffed the two certificates and the note into the gray cloth bag. It completely forgot about the conversation just now and what happened tonight, and turned into a mountain king running rampant on the cat fruit tree again.

It wasn't until eleven o'clock on Saturday night, less than half an hour before the time agreed on the note, that the wizard suddenly remembered this matter. At that time, he was the only one in dormitory 403.

Although Dylan does not need to go to class today on Saturday, the dual blood of vampire and werewolf in his body constantly encourages him to go out for a walk at night; and Fatty Xin was captured by Linda and taken to the school newspaper editing room to prepare for the upcoming to prepare for the Hunting Moon report; as for Dr. Xiao Da, he was called to the office by Sima in the afternoon and has not returned until now.

Apart from Tuantuan and the elf, Zheng Qing could not find a third living creature to discuss this matter. And he couldn't expect a cat and a group of alchemical creatures to provide any reliable advice on this kind of matter.

"Do you think I should talk to Jiang Yu about this?" The young public-funded student looked at the ticking hands on the pocket watch in his hand, and looked at the fat cat on the desk with some uncertainty.

Tuantuan licked his paw lazily and purred.

Zheng Qing turned to look at the elves again. The leading elf hesitantly spun a few times in the air, then flew into the bathroom and returned to Zheng Qing in the blink of an eye, holding a warm towel.

The wizard sighed deeply, gave up communicating with the cats and elves, and finally did not give Jiang Yu the paper crane - he could fully imagine that the witch would use a very firm tone in her reply to prevent him from going to the appointment.

"To go or not to go, that is the question."

Zheng Qing put his pocket watch on the desk, looked at the ampoule containing the transformation potion on the left side of the pocket watch, and then looked at the exercise book for the magic philosophy class on the right side of the pocket watch. He analyzed it to himself: "...First of all, the seven deadly sins It should be a serious club that is not too serious; secondly, there is no doubt that he used memory-disturbing magic similar to the confusion spell on me without permission; finally, I did not expressly say not to go that day... Silence of some kind In a sense, it means agreement...and keeping promises is a good quality recognized by all wizards, especially since I am a public student in the school, so I should set an example!"

After some complicated and difficult self-persuasion, Zheng Qing happily opened the ampoule and drank a transformation potion. Of course, during this process, the thick exercise book did not interfere with the wizard's correct judgment at all.

The process of transforming into a cat is very short and lackluster.

After transforming into a cat, Black Cat put the pocket watch and the box containing the remaining transformation potion into a gray cloth bag. Then he put the gray cloth bag wrapped in black gauze around his neck and used the slightly longer cat hair under his chin to secure it. Cover firmly.

As long as he didn't take the initiative to lift the long hair under his neck and pull off the black gauze, no one would be able to see the shrunken gray cloth bag.

Before going out of the window, the black cat put its hind legs on the ground and put its two front legs on the window sill. He turned around and shouted into the room: "Tuantuan, if I haven't come back tomorrow morning, remember to ask them to report it to the school... and then go Find me at the Maoguoshu!"

After that, regardless of whether the fat cat agreed or not, the black cat pawed hard, jumped up, and disappeared into the dark night outside the window in an instant.

That last message was just in case.

Zheng Qing had already made up his mind. No matter how eloquent the guy who called himself the 'criminal' was, he was determined not to follow him out of school late at night. And as long as he stayed in the school, with the protection of the rune gun and the little green snake, the wizard felt that even if a great wizard took action, he would be able to deal with it a little bit.

…

…

When the black cat struggled to hide the gray cloth bag under his long hair.

In another corner of the school, in Alpha Castle, Sir Friedman had just walked out of the Cullen family's lounge. Alphaburg seemed particularly silent at midnight. In the empty corridor, except for the occasional whispers from the pictures and murals on both sides, there were not even a few ghosts wandering around.

Friedman easily found an empty staircase, changed into his uniform, put on the ruby ​​ring, crossed the white mist rising under the stairs, opened the small bronze door, and walked into the Seven Deadly Sins conference room.

Behind the door, the conference table was completely empty, and not a single ghost could be seen.

There was only one candle burning on the ceiling, and its dim candlelight fell on the conference table, covering an open piece of parchment. Sir Friedman picked up the parchment, which marked the meeting place tonight.
