Chapter 162 Kolma’s Plan

"Why do you have to choose to go out today? This is not a good day."

The black cat stood on a branch of a Resurrection Poplar that grew horizontally, staring at the tree with its big yellow eyes. He repeated the question he had just asked not long ago in a particularly unkind tone: "And, she is Who? Why are you here?"

In addition to Black Cat's contract collaborator Korma, there is also a witch wearing a mask.

He was wearing a black cloak, trousers and a shirt, with a string of amulets hanging from his belt and a thick book of laws.

Although the masked witch did not show her face, Zheng Qing could easily tell that it was Elena standing in front of him just by virtue of her dress - not to mention the familiar fragrance on her body. You know, it has been less than half an hour since we parted ways in Feiyuan.

Zheng Qing felt that his previous bad premonition had become a reality.

More than a week has passed since the secret meeting between Elena and Kolma was spied on during the Forbidden Magic Day, and the meeting between the Rat Immortal and Kolma was discovered through tracking.

During this period of time, Zheng Qing also silently observed Elena, but found that she continued to attend classes in a low-key manner, absent from class in a low-key manner, and dated him in a low-key manner, without showing any sign of seeking help from him.

On the contrary, this morning, she made a special trip to Feiyuan to ask if she had any needed materials that she could help collect.

This stupid girl.

The black cat thought gloomily, shook his beard, and pondered whether to terminate today's slightly radical adventure.

As for the black cat problem, Colma has already made plans.

"I have explained it many times. The weather is good today, there are no insect bites, and there are few monsters! Why don't you choose to go into the forest today? You always say you are busy, busy, busy on weekdays. It has been a week and you haven't even conducted a search. Do you plan to delay it until I graduate from school and have to leave Phuket Island?"

"Don't be like a little girl, mother-in-law. You are hesitant in doing things and have a lot of superstitious thoughts. You always feel that ghosts are rampant during the Qingming Festival and the Ghost Festival... Let me tell you, at First University, there are many things, but not many ghosts. . The school laboratory has an insatiable demand for those wild ghosts and mysterious memes. If we really encounter one or two, it will cost us our living expenses for a semester. "

"As for this sister-in-law Liang, she is one of my partners."

Having said this, Kolma patted the Gypsy Witch on the shoulder and waved to the black cat with a smile: "Because you requested to end the search before one o'clock in the afternoon, so I had to add one more manpower... So as not to fail to complete the planned plan.”

"Don't worry, I have already signed the relevant silence contract."

Zheng Qing naturally believed in Kolma's final guarantee. Because there were relevant provisions in the contract he signed with Colma before. If Kolma had not taken care of everything, there would be no way to bring Elena to him.

But this does not eliminate the irritability and uneasiness in Black Cat's heart.

"Where's that big mouse?" The black cat swung its tail in annoyance and swept a soul-returning poplar seed that had just clung to his back to the ground: "Why didn't it come here today?"

After the caterpillar-like seeds of the soul-returning poplar were swept away, they curled up into a ball in mid-air. After landing, they rolled far away, almost to the toes of the witch.

Kolma picked up a few leaves with her toes, buried the seed, and then replied casually: "Big mouse? Who told you that he was coming today? It just appeared as a witness between us that day. Why?" To do such chores, do you think it’s appropriate to disturb that old man?”

How can this be a chore!

Zheng Qing fell backwards in anger and almost fell off the branch.

"This is different from what you said before!" The black cat's figure suddenly grew a bit bigger, and he stared at the witch under the tree, looking very stressed.

The gypsy witch was obviously startled by the black cat's actions, and she let out a small exclamation.

The black cat flicked its tail and shrunk again.

"Hey, it's so scary." Korma yawned, puffed out her mouth, and stretched her arms nonchalantly: "What did I say before? Did I say that the big rat was coming?"

The black cat's expression was suffocated.

Indeed, regardless of the previous contract or prior communication, the witch had never promised the Rat Fairy to participate in this matter. It's just that he has preconceived ideas and made up his mind.

The black cat paced back and forth on the branch anxiously.

Although Kolma's explanation is a bit reckless, it is not unreasonable. According to the contract, he must assist in the search of that secret place. If he didn't do it, but she did, she would be suspected of breaching the contract. Judging from the situation, the environment in the woods today is indeed not that dangerous.

Zheng Qing discovered this when he slipped out of a hidden passage in the school. Because he didn't encounter any strange creatures along the way - the most dangerous thing was the red bean frog with two heads stacked on top of each other and blowing bubbles. This is a highly poisonous amphibian creature, but its movements are slow and its senses are not keen. . As long as the black cat is carefully avoided, it will be fine.

In addition, today's Silent Forest is much more silent than any time Zheng Qing has seen before.

Whether it was last year's winter hunt, the later trip to Silent River, or the previous outing, Zheng Qing's impression seemed a bit noisy. It wasn't until today that he vaguely understood the true meaning of 'silence'.

After thinking about this, the black cat finally stopped and tilted his head to look under the tree.

"Then what are you going to do?" he asked gruffly: "The forest is so big, how are you going to start searching?"

Hearing the black cat relent, Kolma immediately beamed: "Didn't you say before that there was an abnormality in the 'd A' hunting area during the last winter hunting? I also did some minor work before... Today, let's go to d first. "A hunting area, visit the rats and wolves living there and hear if they notice anything unusual."

Upon hearing the witch's suggestion, Zheng Qing immediately thought of a certain ferret and the fat rat squatting on the ferret's head.

Sure enough, the witch's next words confirmed his thoughts.

"Actually, this is also the opinion given to us by the big rat you mentioned," Korma seemed to be reassured by his allies: "He said that the leader of the group of rat wolves is very familiar with him..."

Is Fei Rui still in touch with the Rat Immortal? Zheng Qing took this piece of information seriously.

He had always been inexplicably wary and curious about the hamster that had lived in his house for more than ten years - but on the other hand, if Fei Rui really had any bad intentions for him, then ten There have been plenty of opportunities to deal with him over the past few years.
