Monster Hunting High School

Chapter 2710 The covered mark

"If something falls, you should always pick it up."

Although his back was to the door of the laboratory, Thomas seemed to have seen what happened. He glanced at the wizard who had just exclaimed and reminded: "...In the world of wizards, you never know what you have lost. The quill will turn into a sharp arrow that shoots into your heart. Give him the gem."

Zheng Qing wanted to complain that he had drawn so much blood from him, so how could he have the nerve to teach him a lesson for throwing away a quill.

But the cat was in Shekou and had to bow its head.

So he honestly remained silent.

After hearing the lab owner's instructions, the smacking rattlesnake reluctantly twisted around, moved to the foot of the test bench, opened its mouth, and spit out a black gem that had been stained with a lot of mucus.

Then the snake's shadow appeared, and the rattlesnake suddenly transformed into a delicate-looking little witch.

It's clearly what Zhu Si looks like.

But there was no bright red mark in the center of her forehead.

"He obviously threw it away!"

The little witch pointed at Zheng Qing and complained angrily: "I didn't steal or rob, so what's wrong with picking up things that others don't want? No wonder the captain always told me that there are no good people on Phuket Island!"

Zheng Qing was in a trance for a moment, then suddenly woke up. The little witch in front of him was not Zhu Si, but the faceless demon who had impersonated Zhu Si in the dreamland. He was also the one who caused a lot of trouble in the school after eating Liu Feifei's snake pet. Little monster.

But he remembered clearly that Liu Feifei's snake was a cobra - otherwise he would have reacted at first sight.

Wow!

There was a sound of curtains being pulled in my ears.

When Zheng Qing came back to his senses, he realized that Thomas had opened the white curtains on the opposite side, revealing a face that Zheng Qing had expected.

Nikita.

The succubus who left a deep impression on Zheng Qing on the first day she entered college.

Her face was as alluring as ever, with a trace of madness flashing in her scarlet eyes. However, her state seemed a little wrong at the moment. Her face was pale, and she was lying weakly on another test bench. She was covered with a thick white sheet, and more than a dozen hoses of different thicknesses hung from the sheet. , with liquids of different colors flowing inside.

Zheng Qing stared at the bloated appearance under the white sheet, and was very suspicious of what the banshee had become now. After all, according to the impression of her slim and light figure, it is impossible for the sheets to have such a large and irregular bulge.

Noticed the boy looking at him curiously.

The succubus winked at him.

Then his eyes turned to 'Ju Si', and he laughed in a hoarse voice: "I have told you a long time ago that there are no good or bad people in the wizarding world, only smart people and fools... You always don't listen."

Zheng Qing suspected that her words were yin and yang.

"Smarts and fools are not fixed in stone, for magic is simple, but people are not."

He borrowed a sentence Xiao Xiao had said, and then changed the topic and pointed at Thomas: "Just like our Mr. Thomas... From the first day when the crow appeared in the newspaper, I have always had a vague uneasiness... I feel like they are like the seagulls in Hitchcock's "The Birds". At first they just peck and hurt people, then disrupt birthday parties, then attack children, set gas stations on fire, and finally the whole town is almost overwhelmed by the crazy flock of birds... "

"Who is Hitchcock?" The little banshee had sneaked up to Nikita again at some point and was whispering into her ear.

Nikita replied in a voice that everyone could hear: "Smart people will understand the real meaning behind his example, and only fools will pay attention to who Kirk is."

Zheng Qing lay on his back on the test table, forcing himself to stare at the bare ceiling above his head, pretending not to hear the whispers of the two banshees, and trying to express his deepest disappointment to the owner of the laboratory: "...I had doubts. You, but I didn’t expect you to poison me! When Gan Ning fed me the beans, he at least grilled me a delicious steak. What about you? Your cup of tea is really terrible!”

"Certified!" Nikita laughed weakly: "I told him back then that the tea he made tasted terrible, but he never admitted it..."

"I didn't poison you."

Thomas denied Zheng Qing's accusation. He held half a glass of the bright red blood he had just received in one hand and held up tweezers in the other. His movements were elegant as if he were attending a dinner party - which made Zheng Qing feel more and more like a lamb to be slaughtered - very friendly. He nodded to Zheng Qing: "There are just a few herbs added to the tea, such as hemp grass and edelweiss. It is a real tonic that can help you have a good rest and restore your energy..."

"A tonic that makes you weak?" the lamb on the dining table taunted.

The owner of the laboratory was unimpressed: "...According to the laboratory data, several generations of our experimental subjects have shown extremely strong poison resistance, so I have reason to believe that a completely successful body like you should have stronger poison resistance." . In addition, I will not risk activating the guard mark and causing you to show poisoning reactions..."

"Guard mark?" Zheng Qing heard a new word that gave rise to a glimmer of hope.

Thomas was very honest and fulfilled his previous promise, and did not hesitate at all to Zheng Qing's question: "Do you still remember that the group leader and the others went to dormitory 403 on Monday afternoon?"

Of course Zheng Qing remembers it.

After the dormitory was illegally invaded that day, two groups of investigators came. In the morning, the two investigators were perfunctory, but in the afternoon, three big shots at the level of the head of the teaching assistant group came.

However, in Zheng Qing's impression, those big shots just asked a few casual questions and then left without even taking the responsibility of the two commissioners in the morning.

"...They marked the shoulders and elbows to ensure that if any accident happens to you, they will be able to detect it immediately." At this point, Thomas pointed at himself with the finger holding the tweezers: "By the way, I am also your escort. A member of the team, that’s why I can take you away so easily.”

In just a few words, Zheng Qing's brain almost shut down.

He subconsciously glanced at the direction of his arm, and then immediately remembered Zhang Yu's actions of patting his shoulders and grabbing his arms when the three others left, and he suddenly came to his senses.

"That is to say...the school agrees with my guess and knows that there is a crow trying to harm me?"

"It's not necessarily a crow. The school just recognized that you are at risk of being attacked, so it has strengthened its protection for you... Although in my opinion, the protection for you is a bit too extravagant."

Thomas didn't know Zheng Qing's specific identity, so he had such doubts.

Zheng Qing didn't intend to explain to him, but just said casually: "...but you still took me away from all the layers of protection. You really protected a lonely person."

"As I just said, I'm also a member of the escort team. It's a coincidence."

Zheng Qing twisted his neck, feeling the pressure coming from his shoulders and neck, and suddenly realized another thing: "Wait, the vest and armor you wore for me before..."

"That's right, just to isolate the marks left by the captains."
