Chapter 157 Black Market (6)
A man pushed away the person who blocked him and walked to the table where Du Zhengyi and Luo Qi were sitting. He drank a lot of wine, and when he pushed away the woman who was holding his arm, Luo Qi was annoyed at the lack of strength in his hand.
He was a tall and thin man. He stumbled up to them. At first glance, Roach only noticed that his hair was damp and curled, sticking to his scalp. He looked like he had just washed his hair. Maybe he was pursuing this.
Luo Qi couldn't explain the effects of excessive use of hair care products. Just like a mage couldn't understand humans, he sometimes didn't quite understand the popular tastes of mages.
The man was wearing clothes that could barely be regarded as mage clothes, but they were not very solemn. He wore an almost white cross-collar robe underneath, a black belt around his waist, and a cloak with silver dark patterns on the outside.
But Luo Qi knew that the preciousness of the mage's clothing material is reflected in the belt. This is a common rule in the mage world. In addition to the preciousness of the fabric, many mages are accustomed to making expensive crystals into belt decorations. So Luo Qi
It was obvious that the cloak was just for show, and his belt revealed his poverty. Or perhaps, when he became rich, it was not long enough to convince the master tailors to accept his order.
However, Luo Qi knew that if he often behaved like he does now, with his collar loosely parted, revealing the honey-colored chest muscles underneath, and showing off everywhere, then even if he paid twice the price to the master tailor, he would not be able to get them to accept him.
of orders.
In addition, if this man didn't look at people so sinisterly, then Luo Qi could barely count him as a handsome guy. Under the few strands of unruly hair on his forehead, his eyebrows were dark and slender, and his eyes were slightly deep.
Sunken below the brow bone, the shape of his eyes is quite in line with general aesthetic requirements. The bridge of his nose is straight, which also makes him look heroic. However, his philtrum is a little too long, and his lips are too thin, almost
It was as if he was pursing his lips on purpose.
"Du Zhengyi." He said, and the name slipped through his throat, as if he was about to be spit on the ground.
Roach felt uncomfortable. He saw a snake-shaped ring on the man's bony hand, and he was holding an obsidian short knife in his hand.
"With all due respect." Luo Qi said suddenly. He was now suffering from sequelae and wanted to vomit when he saw obsidian. "The knife made of obsidian is completely a decoration and will break when hit. Are you planning to use this thing to attack Du Zhengyi, or are you planning to use it to attack Du Zhengyi?"
Porcelain? Let me tell you, if Du Zheng breaks that thing of yours, I will never compensate you. If it is a precious cultural relic, you'd better take insurance."
"Who are you?" the man asked him gloomily.
Roach shrugged, picked up the wine glass and took another sip, ignoring him.
Mr. Shui said with difficulty, "Sir, you are a guest here and you know the rules here. If you want to do anything here, I will have to have you kicked out."
"We just want to come and talk to an old acquaintance." The woman beside him said, "I promise, we just meet Mr. Du rarely and want to have a chat. If Mr. Du is not free, we can wait for a while."
Luo Qi glanced at her. She was a pretty woman with unique short hair. She was wearing a black windbreaker and a wide belt around her waist. It looked like a girdle. There was a
The large clip shone darkly like obsidian. From the waist down, her windbreaker turned into a black leather skirt, making her look neat and full of aura. Her hands were wearing black leather gloves, and she wore black leather gloves on her wrists.
From the special-shaped bracelet, Luo Qi could tell that she was a popular fashion brand among human beings.
It's hard to estimate the mage's age, but Luo Qi saw the sophisticated smoothness in her eyes, so he guessed that she was slightly older than the man.
Mr. Shui smiled gently and shook his head, "Our conversation is over. If you just want to chat, this is a place for chatting. I have to give up my seat to my guests."
After he finished speaking, he stood up slowly. Just as Roach was about to stand up and help him, he disappeared across the table out of thin air.
Luo Qi was startled for a moment, then understood, secretly shook his head, and wished Du Zhengyi could be so agile when he reaches that age.
Without any politeness, the man took two steps forward and sat in Mr. Shui's original seat, without even thinking of giving up his seat to the woman.
The woman had no intention of sitting down. She just stood there with her black leather-gloved hands in the pockets of her windbreaker and looked at them worriedly.
Du Zhengyi didn't say a word from beginning to end, quietly sizing up the visitor.
"Isn't this Qiong Lin's dog?" the man laughed softly.
Luo Qi's eyebrows were raised. His cat struggled a little, jumped onto the table lightly and gracefully, and then jumped back into his arms, as if the man's evil spirit had startled it.
"What do you want to say to me?" Du Zhengyi said without emotion.
"I don't want to say anything. We are old acquaintances. Come and have a chat. I heard that you are not as impartial in enforcing the law as before and are dedicated to the public good." The man smiled gloomily.
"Where did you hear that?" Du Zhengyi said perfunctorily.
"The news in Zhouqiaocao City has been coming very fast. Du Zhengyi, people here don't like you. You have many enemies here. Do you remember how many family members were kidnapped from their homes by you?
It's one thing when you have Qiong Lin as your backer, but it's another thing if you don't have Qiong Lin."
Luo Qi was startled and became nervous.
"If I don't do some things, it will be done by other people. I don't want to repeat to you the reasons why I do things." Du Zhengyi said, but since he was willing to talk, he was more patient than usual.
Luo Qi didn't know if this was because they were in the grass market. It was forbidden to fight in the grass market. Du Zhengyi couldn't knock the other party to the ground with just a disagreement.
"Yes, you are here to solve the potential crisis in the mage world." The man suddenly laughed, but his eyes were cold and sinister without any smile. He slapped Luo Qi's cup away. "Du Zhengyi
, when you took my brother away, he was only thirteen years old. It is impossible to tell whether a thirteen-year-old child will be a good person or a bad person in the future!"
"A thirteen-year-old child pushed a human child to jump off a building with his mind." Du Zhengyi said coldly, "Let's face reality."
"He is only thirteen years old!" the man growled in a low voice, "Even humans would deal with him leniently."
"I did not make the law. It is Qiong Lin's job to evaluate and educate your brother." Du Zhengyi said.
"Really?" the man said, his tone suddenly becoming full of joking, "I heard that you recently released a minor detained by Qiong Lin. Why?"
Du Zhengyi said nothing, and Luo Qi thought that he could say that it was just a rumor, and no one had any evidence to accuse Du Zhengyi. But Du Zhengyi remained silent.
The man chuckled, "Just because this one is someone you know. What about my brother? I have never seen my brother since then, and I don't even know whether he is dead or alive. That's what you said
