Chapter 597 Old Ji
In the corner of the KFC restaurant, buckets of hamburgers and fries were placed all over the table, but Shangguanyan didn't move anything, not even intubating her share of Coke. She just smiled and quietly watched the little girl in front of her enjoy her meal.
"How long have you been in this world?"
"Ever since that accident, I have been here and never left." The little girl said, her tone now completely different from before.
Although she still has the voice of a child, her capable wording and extremely concise answers can make people feel that she has a maturity that is different from ordinary children. This kind of thinking ability to deeply grasp the key points during the conversation, It's not something that children can have.
After Shangguan Yan heard that the other party had always been here and never left, surprise flashed in his eyes.
"You came here specifically to stop me, right?" the girl immediately continued.
Shangguan Yan nodded: "It seems there is no need for this."
The combat effectiveness of the human body of the named person is determined by the purpose of the human body. If the named person comes to the human world for the purpose of preaching, then in order to stay in the human world as long as possible and better complete the missionary mission, he will suppress his own strength. , improve the sense of oneself and the source sea.
If it is the named person who intends to come to the human world to destroy something, then the human body may only exist for a few months, and within these months, there will only be a full burst period of a few hours or even minutes.
All in all, it is impossible for the named persons who have arrived in the human world to cover everything, because their purposes are different, their characteristics may be strong or weak, their combat abilities, the duration of their activities in the human world, their spiritual connection with the Kingdom of God, and the interval between their return after death.
Each human body is different, and the named person himself has his own strengths and weaknesses when fabricating the human body. For example, Book Eater is a special named person with weak combat power, great harm, and quick reappearance.
If the other party didn't lie and had really stayed in this world since Xia Shou's accident, then she was definitely not a fighting type. Shangguan Yan estimated that the other party might only be at the level of a fifth-level finisher.
This way, you don’t even have to be serious.
And listening to Lao Ji's answer...she seemed to have realized what she was thinking.
"There is a traitor among us. It will be dangerous for anyone to come into contact with Lord Xia Shou now. Your judgment is very correct.
Xiaoyan, you have really grown up. I never thought that you would call me aunt one day. "The little girl said happily with an elder's tone.
"If you cooperate with me, I will be happy to call you auntie more often." Shangguanyan said very plainly, with no respect in his tone.
She won't trust anyone now, even if Lao Ji doesn't have the combat power to threaten her, she won't trust him either.
Who can guarantee that she is not using this method to lower her vigilance?
She herself said that she had stayed in this world since Xia Shou's death, but no one could prove the authenticity of this statement.
What's more, after Xia Shou died, no one came back to that home, not even once.
Without Xia Shou and Alice, she was the only one left in that empty home.
They never came, which proved that these people had no feelings for her at all.
Shangguanyan didn't care about this. She didn't feel aggrieved. She even thought it would be good.
I used to treat Xia Shou like that. As Xia Shou's most loyal subordinates, it was a problem for them to develop feelings for her, a child who was not well-raised.
But it is also for this reason that there is no need to get close.
Even now, her connection with these people is only because of Xia Shou.
"You said you have stayed in the human world, but what have you been doing all these years?" Shangguan Yan asked.
"When I was looking for Lord Xia Shou's successor, I felt that Lord Xia Shou was really dead and eliminated, and did not exist in the world or in the book.
But after a long time, none of the things in the House of Merlin appeared, which made me think that Lord Xia Shou might not be dead. At least, he had found the next manager of the house.
As a subordinate, of course I have to assist the person he chooses, so I have been looking for him, but the result is you.
In addition, I never thought that the little girl back then would become the witch of the Control Bureau now. Things are really changing. "
Lao Ji shook her head with emotion, suddenly changed the topic and asked:
“But I’m not the only one who wants to see Lord Xia Shou.
Of course I can avoid contacting Lord Xia Shou, but can you stop others? "
"Before I came to you, I had already met another one. He promised to help. I will not let any of you come into contact with Xia Shou until I have determined which one of you is the traitor." Shangguan Yan said calmly.
"Dream Picker is quick to find people, but do you really think no one can get around you?"
"Who knows if you don't try it," Shangguan Yan said easily.
Lao Ji looked at Shangguan Yan meaningfully, took a sip of his drink, then picked up the family bucket on the table and stood up.
"I will do it according to my style. Although our ideas are different, our purpose is the same, to catch the traitor. Let's keep in touch in the future. I don't think I need to give you my phone number."
After saying that, she turned around and walked out of the store, her back looking like an ordinary little girl.
Shangguan Yan watched the other party leave and let out a long sigh.
Sure enough, I'm still not used to dealing with them.
There was a rare moment of relief on her face.
The conversation just now seemed to be going well, but in fact the conversation was not established at all.
The named ones are people who have been recognized by the proxy for their desires and have been able to ascend to the kingdom of God. In essence, they are not human at all. Except for the named ones of human gods, who are very similar to humans, other human bodies only have human-like appearances.
It is actually very difficult to communicate with them using human pros and cons thinking. Shangguan Yan does not think that Lao Ji's agreement is really agreed.
Other named ones can at least guess their desires through the authority of the gods they belong to, but these named ones under Xia Shou... have no idea which god they belong to.
What's more special is that Xia Shou, who is regarded as the master by these named ones, is not a named one.
In the past, she only felt this subjectively. Through fragmented information, she knew that there was a connection between "The Season of Falling Stars" and Xia Shou.
But after Xia Shou came out of the book a while ago, she finally confirmed this conjecture.
She is sure that even in the past, Xia Shou has never been in the kingdom of a certain god, but in the book.
What exactly is Lao Ji's desire?
If you don't know the desires of this group of people, then you can't predict the logic of their actions. The named person is not human. Using human rational thinking to speculate their purpose will eventually lead to tragedy.
Having worked in the Control Bureau for so many years, a large number of human body advent cases have proved this point.
[Hehe, it's rare to see you so nervous when you lie. ]
The voice of the devil suddenly sounded in my ears.
Shangguan Yan's eyes, which had just relaxed, gathered again. She asked casually in a nonchalant tone: "Can I ask, what do you want to do with so many fragments?"
[You don't need to know this. According to the agreement, if you help me get enough seven-branch fragments, I will make that kid an exception. ] The sheep-headed skull responded with a teasing laugh.
"Hehe, I feel like I've lost." She chuckled.
[Hehe, you don't have much time, and you only have this chance. 】
Brothers, this is the only chapter today. Because I am not good at introducing the complicated life stories of new characters, the long paragraph I wrote during the day was like a character setting manual, which was unnatural, so I deleted and revised it later, trying to make it as natural as possible... I am really sorry, I kowtow again and again.
