Chapter two hundred and sixty seventh third-party supervisor
Regarding the gypsy witch's obscure doubts, Black Cat would naturally try his best to deny it. But just after he shook his head twice, he suddenly realized that no one should know his current identity. Why should he deny it? Or, why does he feel guilty?
So after shaking his head left and right, he paused, and then shook his head up and down twice with very exaggerated movements, as if he was just observing the environment in all directions. While shaking, he said in a nervous tone: "Why did I feel like just now?"
A dark shadow passed from the corner of my eye?"
His attitude was so sincere that even he believed it himself.
The corner of Elena's mouth twitched.
As the captain of the exploration team, after Korma heard the warning from the black cat, he very responsibly pulled out a detection talisman, shook his hand and lit it. A gentle wave of magic spread in all directions, and soon the magic feedback showed everything around him.
normal.
"Perhaps you are dazzled." Korma judged.
"I'm sorry that you wasted a talisman." Black Cat expressed his apology sincerely. Korma waved his hand indifferently.
Compared with Black Cat's slightly exaggerated reaction, Jiang Yu's performance was very calm.
She did not answer the gypsy witch's question, but took the opportunity of the black cat to shake its head up and down and glanced upward. Then she saw the wonderful scene of the sun and the moon dancing in the sky, and also saw the big as-
The wheel, the moon which is much bigger than the sun.
"Wow," the witch wearing a red mask showed confusion in her eyes, and her voice was full of admiration: "You never told me that there is such a magical scenery in this secret place... You never said that the moon here is so big!"
Before she finished speaking, the jade stone twisted on a colorful silk thread on the witch's wrist emitted a faint green light and disappeared in a flash.
Jiang Yu immediately came back to his senses and looked sideways at Elena: "And you didn't tell me that the moon here also has the effect of confusing people."
"Confused? No, it's not just as simple as confusing the mind." The gypsy witch turned her eyes to the crystal ball in front of her again, and explained in a calm tone: "But it doesn't matter, as long as we don't look up at it, it won't do anything to us.
Any interference caused by the mission... I have already divined this. As for why I didn’t tell you, it’s because before today, I didn’t know it would turn out like this.”
"That's true." Korma agreed from the side.
While talking, a tarot card suddenly fell off from the track surrounding Elena, fell down, and hit the black cat. The black cat turned around and took a look. The card that fell on him was
The Hanged Man, on the card, is a man lying on a wooden frame with his legs crossed, and his head hanging on the ground is like an electrified light bulb, shining in the sun.
This man looks ugly, this was the black cat's first reaction.
Why did it hit me?
The black cat had a second thought in his mind. He raised his head and looked at the gypsy witch doubtfully, wondering if she knew something and was taking revenge on him. This made him quietly clamp his tail.
"What do you mean?" Black Cat asked gruffly, trying to sound more confident.
Elena was stunned for a moment before leaning over to pick up the tarot card. Then she looked at the hanging man's card and fell into silence. In most tarot card interpretation books, the hanged man is always associated with 'sacrifice'.
' are associated with each other. Just like chariots are associated with 'success', stars are associated with 'hope'.
In the current situation, this is not a good card.
"A little mistake." The gypsy witch took back the card lightly, and then glanced at the black cat: "Anyway, you have nothing to do today. Go back and don't cause trouble here."
Am I being expelled? This thought came to Black Cat's mind.
Before he could think of how to answer Elena's words, the new witch wearing a red mask suddenly spoke, interrupting his train of thought.
"If I guess correctly, you are planning to let this black cat be the 'third party', right?" Jiang Yu took out a roll of parchment from her handbag and waved it in front of Elena: "If it
Now that we're gone, who will be the third party between us?"
Third party? The black cat glanced at the two witches in surprise - Elena wanted to be the third party between the two of them? I always felt that this word and usage were a bit subtle.
The Gypsy Witch obviously ignored this matter and was stunned for a few seconds before slowly nodding: "Yes."
"If you think this matter is risky, then we still have a chance to stop it. Otherwise, your actions just now are just deceiving others." Jiang Yu's tone seemed a little unkind.
Kolma stopped the quill in her hand and glanced at Elena worriedly.
The black cat finally couldn't help it and interrupted the slightly heated conversation between the two witches.
"Excuse me," he raised a paw and asked weakly: "Can anyone explain to me what a third party is? What do you mean by a third party?"
The witches in red masks and white masks all looked at Black Cat, their eyes flashing with inexplicable colors. For a while, no one spoke to answer Black Cat's question.
Still Kolma couldn't hold it back and explained simply: "Our magic ritual requires the use of witch blood. This classmate can provide us with relevant materials, but for the safety of the provider, she requires full supervision of the use of the blood...
…”
"In order to ensure that both parties actually implement the relevant agreements, we signed a magic contract." Elena said: "Because the content of the contract was drafted by us, it may cause unequal pressure on the other party to some extent. So in the contract
We have arranged a 'third-party monitor' to monitor the performance of relevant terms."
"Currently, you are the only 'third-party supervisor' that is acceptable to both of us." Jiang Yu concluded.
"Third-party supervision? Me?" Black Cat's expression was a little distorted: "Why do you think I can play this role? When you first discovered me, I was in the Silent Forest! What if I was a monster with evil intentions?
?!"
He vaguely had a terrible guess.
He no longer believed in those clay sculptures and wooden bodies - after the practical class yesterday afternoon, because he was not injured, Zheng Qing took advantage of the early light to sneak to the pyramid of Atlas and worship all the gods and Buddhas he saw with great piety.
Lift the incense and pray to them to bless you with everything going well today.
But judging from the current situation, he has no sense of security at all, and everything is not going well.
Jiang Yu and Elena looked at each other in tacit understanding, neither of them answered the confusion in Black Cat's heart.
And Kolma impatiently tore open the parchment contract, dragged the black cat's paw, smeared the center of its paw with ink pad, then pressed directly to the blank space of the parchment, stepped hard twice, leaving
The next bright red paw print.
The black cat felt that the palms of his paws were getting cold.
