With the plummeting SAN value, I can only work hard to watch the drama

Chapter 184 Killing Cheng Yaojin Halfway

At the gate of the train station where there were many travelers, Zhou Cheng stood quietly in the crowd of people coming and going, looking at Shen Xiu who was only a few meters away from her expressionlessly, his eyes were watery, and he had no intention of speaking at all.

The same is true of the other protagonist who is "far away" from her.

If she didn't speak first, Shen Xiu, who had a ghost in her heart, would not take the initiative to send her to the door.

The two looked at each other silently like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl separated by the Milky Way. There was no affection, only eye contact.

For a moment, the atmosphere seemed a little strange, and the passengers passing by the two couldn't help showing very ambiguous and strange eyes.

They didn't realize at all that in their eyes, they were long-lost lovers. The man wanted to escape but couldn't escape, and the woman kept sneering in her heart, but she didn't show it at all on her face.

"Brother Xiu!"

Just when Shen Xiu was thinking about getting out, the familiar voice sounded from behind again.

Compared to before, the owner of the voice obviously had a lot of resentment towards Shen Xiu's reaction just now, and even raised the pitch a lot.

Shen Xiu turned her head with a dry smile, and said to Sophie who had a small face wrinkled:

"Ha, what a coincidence, I ran into you as soon as I arrived in Jingdu. What, you two are going on a business trip?"

While talking, he secretly gestured to Aliya, indicating that the situation was wrong and quickly slipped away.

Aliya didn't know whether she didn't understand Shen Xiu's hint, or what was going on, she tilted her head and looked at her "father", then at the angry Sophie, and suddenly said something that Shen Xiu would follow Sophie was very embarrassed.

"Father, is she the stepmother you found for Aliya?"

stepmother?

God damn stepmother!
Shen Xiu's head was full of black lines, and she was extremely speechless.

Sophie, who was standing face to face with him, also had a blank mind and her eyes were out of focus.

It wasn't until Zhou Cheng walked over that Sophie recovered from the double impact of "father" and "stepmother".

She widened her eyes, her small mouth slowly turned into an "O", until it was big enough to swallow one of her fists, she blurted out:

"Brother Xiu, when did you have a daughter?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Cheng, who was originally expressionless, was stunned, and then a cold breath slowly emerged from her body.

"Don't get close to strangers," Zhou Cheng calmly looked at Alia, who was staring at him with tilted head, and compared it with Shen Xiu, the cold breath disappeared inexplicably, but a sarcasm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth .

"Some people are blessed to be fathers at a young age."

Shen Xiu smiled wryly, and was about to explain, but when she didn't want to, another shocking sentence came out of Aliya's mouth.

"Father, did Alia say something wrong? She is the stepmother you found for Alia?"

Sophie, who was shocked by the "father-daughter relationship" between Shen Xiu and the blonde girl, was suddenly amused by this sentence.

Sophie frowned, smiled like a little fox stealing a chicken, looked at Shen Xiu gloatingly, and cast a look:
"Brother Xiu, you can do it. Chengcheng became someone's stepmother before she got married, but you really deserve it!"

Shen Xiu wanted to cry without tears, and wanted to educate Alia, who spoke without thinking, but when her eyes touched her clear eyes, she couldn't speak anymore, and could only sigh dejectedly.

Shen Xiu helplessly looked at Zhou Cheng, who was sneering all over his face, and Sophie, who was covering her mouth and snickering, and said weakly:
"I can explain"

"You don't have to explain to me!"

Zhou Cheng interrupted immediately, not wanting to continue this topic, staring straight at Shen Xiu, as if he wanted to see through him, and said:

"Did you forget something?"

Shen Xiu, who was looked at extremely uncomfortable by her, also didn't care about "father" and "stepmother", her mind was blank at first, and then it started to work rapidly again.

My mind is full of "how to explain those things before".

Seeing that Shen Xiu didn't speak, the sneer on Zhou Cheng's face became even worse:
"Why, can't make it up? Do you need me to give you a little more time?"

It would be good to have a little more time, but how could Shen Xiu take over this.

Once he agreed, wouldn't he really confirm the fact that his explanations were all lies?
Shen Xiu laughed dryly and said:

"I'm just wondering where to start."

Zhou Cheng snorted noncommittally, stared closely at Shen Xiu's eyes, and signaled for him to start performing.

Shen Xiu swallowed her saliva, looked around, and said with a guilty conscience:
"After all, this matter is my secret. There are too many people here. Should we talk about it in another place?"

Zhou Cheng didn't move at all, he didn't intend to change places at all, he still watched him quietly.

With Zhou Cheng's appearance, it was obvious that he did not agree to the proposal of "changing places".

There is no way, Shen Xiu can only bite the bullet and say:

"That's fine, just say it here, actually."

"Shen Xiu!"

As she was speaking, a familiar voice suddenly interrupted Shen Xiu's words.

If it was one day... no, one minute ago, Shen Xiu didn't have a good impression of the owner of this voice.

But now, this person rescued him from "distress", and he was very grateful.

But on the surface, he shrugged at Zhou Cheng, indicating that this is not what he didn't want to say.

Zhou Cheng frowned and looked at the speaker:
"Captain Yang, why are you here?"

As the captain of an investigator team, Yang Ye stepped forward with a smile on his face, looked at Zhou Cheng and Sophie, who were lower than him, and said with a smile without putting on airs:

"You guys are allowed to come, but I'm not allowed to come? Hahaha!"

As the saying goes, the spring breeze is proud of horseshoe disease.

Yang Ye's horse is really "horse hooves" recently.

Not only did he discover the "Ritual Formation", but he also persuaded Shen Xiu to agree to the "deal" at a critical moment, and even got a promotion to the "Pillar" after completing this matter.

Recently, Yang Ye can be said to be the most famous person in the entire Jingdu Bureau of Strange Affairs. He once overshadowed Long Zheng, so it is inevitable that he is a bit flustered.

Zhou Cheng naturally didn't laugh at Yang Ye's cold joke that was not funny at all.

Although Shen Xiu was very grateful to Yang Ye, she also didn't show any face, she just twitched her lips a few times.

Feeling that his title of "Atmosphere Destroyer" started to flare up again, Yang Ye smiled a few times, looked at Shen Xiu seriously and said:
"I'm not kidding. I'm actually here this time under the instructions of Deputy Director Zhu and Deputy Director Long. I want to invite you to the bureau to discuss the 'deal'."

Speaking of this, Yang Ye hesitated for a moment, and asked tentatively:

"May I ask, did 'that' agree?"

Although Zhu Biao had given him his experience, if that "angel" hadn't agreed to the deal, in the final analysis, the matter would still not have been completed.

Although the experience is good, it will inevitably be a little hot in the hand.

But if the "angel" agrees, then naturally he can put the envy of the whole bureau into his pocket with peace of mind.

Shen Xiu had a strange face, thought for a while, and said:

"It should be agreed."

Recalling that when I told Lilith about this deal, Lilith's reaction was quite weird.

He was silent for a while, then laughed again, and finally told Shen Xiu that he only needed to bring His mark to the rose garden.

Yang Ye ignored the word "should". After hearing "agreed", the smile on his face became brighter.

"Just promise, just promise."

As he spoke, he rubbed his hands together, looking very excited.

Shen Xiu, who didn't know the inside story, was naturally surprised by Yang Ye's reaction.

Lilith agreed to mend the "wall" and it was certainly something to be happy about, but why did Captain Yang's reaction look so weird, as if Lilith had agreed to be his wife?
Could it be that this person surnamed Yang got some kickback from him in this "deal"?
Thinking of this, Shen Xiu narrowed her eyes slightly, and said with deep meaning:

"Captain Yang, we smart people don't say dark words, am I responsible for this matter? Shouldn't you show it."

As soon as the words came out, some people laughed, but some couldn't.

The object of Sophie's snickering instantly changed from Shen Xiu to Yang Ye, and even the indifferent Zhou Cheng's lips curled up slightly.

Yang Ye's smile faltered, and his brows frowned slightly, as if the "expression" that Shen Xiu said was very difficult for him.

After hesitating for a moment, Yang Ye said with a face of embarrassment:

"It's not that I don't agree, it's just that the experience belongs to Deputy Director Zhu after all. Even if I want to borrow it from you, it must be approved by him, right? Agree, I will give you a backup copy of my experience, if he does not agree"

Speaking of this, Yang Ye paused, gritted his teeth, and continued cruelly, before continuing:

"If he doesn't agree, then I'll tell you secretly, how?"

Hearing Yang Ye's words, Shen Xiu finally understood why he was smiling so brightly just now. It turned out that he had obtained a piece of "experience".

The experience that can make a "lower-level demon hunter" so excited belongs to the "pillar" Zhu Biao?
So that thing should be Zhu Biao's realization of being promoted to "Pillar".

Unexpectedly, this person surnamed Yang really gained benefits from it, and the benefits were not small, Shen Xiu was very surprised.

Before Shen Xiu could speak, Sophie's voice sounded first:
"Captain Yang, anyway, you have to tell Brother Xiu in the end, so why bother to ask that Deputy Director Zhu?"

Yang Ye looked around like a thief, and smiled wryly:
"It's true to say so, but you still have to ask, after all, he is a 'pillar', right?"

Sophie gave a half-comprehending "Oh" and said nothing more.

At this time, Yang Ye suddenly showed a flattering smile, and looked at Zhou Cheng:

"Zhou Cheng, I hope you and Sophie don't tell anyone else about the experience. In exchange, after I asked Deputy Director Zhu, I will also copy that experience to you. What do you think?"

Just like what Yang Ye said, although the experience was given by Zhu Biao, in the final analysis it still belonged to Zhu Biao.

Without his permission, Yang Ye would let others read it on his own. Even if Zhu Biao didn't say anything on the surface, who knows what he would think in his heart.

It's nothing to be "concerned" by a deputy director of the Foreign Affairs Bureau, but to be remembered by a "pillar" will undoubtedly have no good end.

As a beneficiary, Shen Xiu won't publicize the experience she got.

But besides Shen Xiu, there were three other people present.

The girl named "Alia" was suspected to be a "pillar" and had a close relationship with Shen Xiu, so naturally she would not tell anyone else about it.

But Zhou Cheng and Sophie are not necessarily.

Although the two have a good relationship with Shen Xiu, after all, it is about the "pillar experience". In the face of such a huge temptation, only the benefits of the same level can seal the mouths of the two.

If not, once this matter got out, Yang Ye wouldn't be able to get involved in the Bureau of Strange Affairs.

As for the so-called "same-level benefits", Yang Ye can't offer anything other than that experience.

What he thought was that one copy was for giving, and two copies were also given away. Anyway, if he wanted to make a copy for Shen Xiu, it would not take much effort to print an extra copy at that time.

From Yang Ye's point of view, his proposal is not bad.

Zhou Cheng is now about to break through to "monster hunting". With her talent, she can touch the ceiling of this level after staying at this stage for a few years. When the time comes to be promoted to "pillar", it will become a dragon gate that must be jumped over.

With this experience, it is enough to become more relaxed when "crossing the dragon gate".

But Zhou Cheng's answer was beyond his expectation.

"I don't want to feel"

"don't want?!"

Yang Ye's face became anxious, and he wanted to persuade him, but Zhou Cheng's next words made him swallow it back, and he respected this investigator who was old enough to be his daughter.

"Other people's experiences belong to others after all, I want to go my own way."

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Yang Ye, even Shen Xiu showed admiration for Zhou Cheng.

"Chengcheng is right!" Sophie echoed with a proud expression at this time, "Let's go our own way!"

Originally, if it was only Zhou Cheng who said that, it would be fine, but when Sophie said this, it made Yang Ye a little embarrassed.

You are lofty, you are amazing, you can walk your own way, if I want to study other people's experience, do I have to be a dwarf?
Seeming to see through Yang Ye's thoughts, Zhou Cheng secretly gave Sophie a look, signaling her to stop talking.

Sophie is not stupid to be able to mix with Zhou Cheng.

After a little thought, he realized that his words had offended Yang Ye, stuck out his tongue, and calmed down.

After all, Yang Ye is the investigator leader with a calm mind. After adjusting himself, the resentment in his heart quickly dissipated, and he said with a smile:

"Shen Xiu, are you satisfied with my 'expression'?"

When speaking, Yang Ye stared nervously at Shen Xiu's eyes, afraid that he would also say "go his own way".

Seeing Yang Ye's appearance, Shen Xiu couldn't help laughing.

That experience is extremely rare for Yang Ye, even for 90.00% of the investigators, and it cannot be exchanged for a thousand dollars.

But for him, and investigators like Zhou Cheng who are determined to "go their own way", that thing is not so important.

But even so, Shen Xiu nodded:

"Of course I am satisfied."

"It's good to be satisfied."

Yang Ye secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

The atmosphere was relaxed again.

The "thing" has been negotiated, Yang Ye didn't say any more, took Shen Xiu and Ailiya out of the station, and took the car to the Bureau of Strange Affairs.

Before leaving, Shen Xiu once again apologized to the expressionless Zhou Cheng, and said that she would definitely tell her about what happened in Tiandu next time they meet.

The three of Shen Xiu left, and only the travelers, Zhou Cheng and Sophie remained at the gate of the station.

"Chengcheng, Brother Xiu"

Seeing that Zhou Cheng was not in a good mood, Sophie wanted to comfort her.

But Zhou Cheng is not the kind of person who needs to be comforted. Before Sophie finished speaking, he shook his head and said:

"Sooner or later he will fall into my hands."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked out of the station.

Looking at Zhou Cheng's leaving back, Sophie also shook her head and let out a long sigh, as if she felt sorry for someone who thought she had escaped.
