"You, did you tell them?" Lei Zi was Lei Zi. Although his body was almost frozen, his mind was still very flexible. He immediately felt that Bai Yi and the others had colluded.
Bai Yi smiled bitterly: "We went back to our respective rooms at night. You saw it with your own eyes, and in order to leave, you must be the last one to sleep. Did you hear anything? Are you afraid of betting? Are you worried?
Tang Sancheng and the others can't guess your thoughts at all, are you worried that you really have to leave? Or..."
"Just bet, what am I afraid of?" In the darkness, Lei Zi's eyes were a little red. He was really afraid. He was really afraid that not everyone was worried about him and wanted to advance and retreat with him. If he entered, Tang Sancheng and the others would still be there.
While sleeping...
Fortunately, as soon as he walked to the door, Lei Zi found a light in the room. Lei Zi sniffed, firstly because of excitement, and secondly because his nose was so cold that his nose came out. When he opened the door, Tang Sancheng and Xiao
Ning, Xiaoshan was walking around in the living room. When he saw Lei Zi coming back, Xiaoshan jumped over: "Brother Lei Zi, where were you just now?"
"Why didn't you sleep?" Lei Zi subconsciously hid his backpack behind him.
Xiao Ning glared at Lei Zi: "Do you think we are all fools? Or do you still look down on us and want to just leave like this? You have been with us for so long, and if the people of the Golden Eagle Order want to find you, we have nothing to do with it.
, you will still get into trouble, but you are going to get into trouble anyway, so what does it matter whether you leave or not?"
Lei Zi looked back at Bai Yi and Qi Xie, and suddenly threw his backpack to the ground: "I'm not leaving!"
"Go to sleep." Everyone said nothing. They each went back to their own rooms to sleep, and immediately got into their own beds that were not cold yet. Lei Zi suddenly fell down from the height just now. These people, Lei Zi,
Lei Zi silently packed his luggage, returned to his room obediently, and couldn't wait to lie on the bed. Lei Zi put his hands under his head, and some things slowly emerged in his mind...
Early the next morning, Lei Zi was the first one to get up. He bought breakfast from outside despite the snow, and sat there alone to eat first. It was rare to see Lei Zi behave so leisurely, and everyone felt strange.
When everyone sat around the table, Lei Zi said slowly: "People are in the dark, I am in the light, I feel more disadvantaged."
"Yeah." Tang Sancheng took a big mouthful of fried dough sticks in his mouth and was speechless. He could only hum, but the others were silent.
"Senior Brother mentioned the list before he died. We first learned about this list from Master." Lei Zi continued: "Last night, I thought of many things from my childhood, and one of them came to mind: Master every three years
He would disappear suddenly for a period of time. He never mentioned where he went, and we never asked. After all, we know that there are many taboos in our profession. I was thinking,
Master's disappearance every three years, could it have something to do with that list? Don't you think it's strange? We are not allowed to know each other, but how is the integrity of the list guaranteed? Each master is not allowed to have more than two subordinates
The above-mentioned disciples will all be separated after they reach adulthood. In the sea of people, you don’t know who your fellow disciples are at all. The only ones who know are your fellow apprentices and masters.”
"Yes." Tang Sancheng just stuffed a mouthful of cake into his mouth. It was so full that when he opened his mouth, it almost fell. He quickly covered it with his hands.
"So..." Qixie understood: "Are you suspecting that your master meets with his peers once every three years?"
"That's right." Lei Zi said with certainty: "How else can the list be guaranteed to be complete, and once every three years? This is so regular. Unfortunately, I don't know where the master went. I was young and didn't think so carefully.
."
"It's too difficult to know this now." Bai Yi said: "I think we should start from where we can start. For example, the place where your senior brother's accident happened. I heard that the police have intervened in this matter and are investigating.
It's a major case, and there's a lot of panic in the city right now. After the news spread, people started spreading rumors that there was a serial killer here."
"I'll have to help you with the situation over there." Lei Zi was rarely polite: "But..."
"Pay attention to safety." Bai Yi nodded: "I understand, it is entirely possible for these people to blend in with ordinary people, making it difficult for people to tell them apart."
Tang Sancheng was a little confused: "Then what should we do?"
"Just stay at home and let Qixie and I take care of other things." Bai Yi pointed to Tang Sancheng's ears: "You have such brilliant ears. If you stay here and listen to the goings-on nearby, you will be of greatest help."
Busy."
"I understand." Tang Sancheng was now willing.
Bai Yi immediately took Qixie out. Lei Zi couldn't run around outside, and he was bored and uncomfortable at home. Fortunately, Xiao Ning bickered with him to pass the time, otherwise it would be like going to jail. Xiao Shan was in the yard
A snowman has been piled inside. Winter is his favorite season. When he was building up the snowman vigorously, a snowman appeared outside.
Someone was knocking on the door. Xiaoshan thought it was Bai Yi and the others and hurried back. He immediately went to find the door. When he saw the person standing outside, he took a step back. He was scared. The person in front of him only had a pair of eyes exposed.
, his whole body was surrounded by black so that he was not exposed at all. His voice was like that of an old man, but his body was very tall and completely asymmetrical.
"I'm looking for Bai Yi." This man's eyes were very cold. Xiaoshan didn't like being looked at by him like this at all. He put his hands on his chest childishly: "My brother Bai is not here, who are you?"
"You don't need to know." This man's voice sounded like it was squeezed out of his throat. It was low and hoarse. Just by listening to his voice, you would have thought that he was at least a dozen years old.
Xiaoshan was not happy: "You are really strange. You are obviously the one looking for someone, but I have nothing to do to beg you. Why are you pretending to be an uncle?"
The latter sentence was learned from Lei Zi. Xiaoshan looked immature and it was not annoying to say it from his mouth. Tang Sancheng had already heard the noise outside and ran out. He saw Xiaoshan completely confronting the man.
He looked a little confused: "Xiao Shan, who is he?"
Xiaoshan said angrily: "I don't know anyone."
The man seemed anxious. When he saw Tang Sancheng coming out, he grabbed Tang Sancheng and asked, "I'm looking for the man named Bai Yi. Where is he?"
"He's out." Tang Sancheng looked this man up and down. How could anyone cover themselves up so tightly? If she were a Hui woman, she would be so covered. What kind of game could such a big man do?
"When can he come back?" This man didn't plan to retreat immediately. He looked like he wouldn't rest until Bai Yi waited. Tang Sancheng was unsure about this man and didn't know if he could be let in. Just when the three of them stood there
During the stalemate at the door, Bai Yi's voice came over: "What are you doing?"
When the man heard Bai Yi's voice, he walked towards Bai Yi: "You're back!"
Bai Yi reacted quickly: "Do you know me?"
This person walked towards him when he heard his voice. He had obviously heard his voice, but Bai Yi had no impression of him at all. Wait! Bai Yi remembered, wasn't this person the same person who hurriedly left his home last time?
