Chapter 140: Doubts, Burial, Waiting
The rain has been falling.
There is no trend of getting smaller.
"Feifei~" Feifei shook her head in frustration.
"It's okay." Xiao Xiao touched Feifei's head.
He didn't have much hope in the first place.
After all, these cat carcasses have been abandoned here for who knows how many days, and it is raining so heavily now.
Even if there were some clues, they have been almost destroyed.
……
Xiao Xiao went to the commercial street outside the alley and bought a roll of black plastic bags, and put all the cat corpses into the plastic bags.
"Gu carving."
A huge black shadow suddenly appeared.
Xiao Xiao has always wanted to try the feeling of flying in the sky on a Gu Diao.
I didn't expect the first time to be in this situation.
Xiao Xiao put away his umbrella, his eyes glowed with golden light, and his body seemed to be covered with a thin film, keeping the rain out.
This kind of weather is good, it’s not easy to be discovered.
After jumping onto the back of the Gu Diao, Xiao Xiao sat down cross-legged.
"Pipa demon, do you want to come with us?"
"Hah~" The Pipa Demon looked at the huge Gu Diao with some fear, hesitating to move forward.
"It's okay." Xiao Xiao patted the Gu Diao's back.
"Don't you want to give these cats a last farewell?"
Hearing this, the Pipa Ghost tightened the Pipa in his arms, and even though he was still afraid, he walked towards the Gu Diao step by step.
Walking closer and looking at the Gu Diao that was as big as a small mountain, the Pipa Demon's expression looked like he was about to run away in the next second.
Xiao Xiao laughed.
"Come up."
The Pipa Demon's face was so pale that it was almost transparent.
It struggled for a long time before suppressing its instinctive fear, freeing one hand and beginning to clumsily try to climb onto the back of the Gu Diao.
Xiao Xiao couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he stretched out a hand and said, "Hold it."
The Pipa demon looked up blankly, looked at the hand Xiao Xiao stretched out to it, and then looked at Xiao Xiao again.
Xiao Xiao nodded to it.
The Pipa Demon hesitantly stretched out her hand.
At this moment, Xiao Xiao discovered that the Pipa Demon's hands were not exactly like human hands. It had five slender fingers, long silver-gray nails with sharp curves, like both claws and hands.
The pale skin color has a kind of enchanting beauty.
It turns out that the most monster-like part of this Pipa monster's body is its pair of claws.
Of course, this is when a monster is not making a face.
……
Xiao Xiao grabbed the Pipa Demon's claws and his first feeling was that it was very cold.
There was not a trace of warmth, and just holding it like that, it seemed as if even the warmth from his palms had been sucked away.
But, other than that, it doesn't seem to be that different from the feel of a human hand.
It's surprisingly soft.
Xiao Xiao exerted a little force and pulled the Pipa demon up.
Seems to be a little younger than the average 15 or 16 years old.
……
"Sit tight." Xiao Xiao reminded the Pipa Yao who was sitting behind him.
The Pipa Demon looked at the hand that Xiao Xiao had just held in a daze. There was still some warmth on the hand, which was different from his own coldness. He seemed to be able to feel the beating of Xiao Xiao's pulse, which was so full of vitality.
This is what human beings are like.
Upon hearing Xiao Xiao's words, the Pipa Demon clenched her open hand helplessly and nodded.
Seeing that Pipa Yao looked uneasy, Xiao Xiao was a little worried, "Be careful, don't fall."
"Hehe~" The Pipa Demon nodded seriously.
……
"Gu Diao, let's go."
"Jie~"
The Gu Eagle flapped its wings and hooked the bag containing the cat corpse with its claws. A huge airflow swept out, and the continuous rain curtain stopped for a moment.
Xiao Xiao suddenly felt a hand pulling at the corner of his clothes. Knowing it was the Pipa Demon, he didn't care.
Also, flying feels really great.
Because of the coverage of the spiritual film, the strong wind from the high altitude and the fierce raindrops had no effect on Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao can enjoy the feeling of flying at high altitude. He feels free and unfettered, as if the whole world is at his feet.
The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth curled up in an unrestrained arc.
Commanding the Gu Diao to avoid tall buildings and fly in the clouds.
Xiao Xiao's golden glass-like pupils shone brightly, and he could see the entire scenery on the ground.
"It's right here, Gu Diao, go down."
"Jie Jie~"
Amidst the huge roar, the Gu Diao slowly descended.
……
This is a dense forest.
The trees are lush and the bushes are dense.
The tiny flowers dotted in the dense green and light blue are exceptionally simple and elegant.
This is a quiet and beautiful place to live.
Xiao Xiao picked a small hill.
With a few claws, the Gu Diao dug a deep pit.
……
After burying the cat's body, Xiao Xiao placed a bouquet of flowers on the hill that had returned to its original state.
Plain white and goose yellow, with a little bit of lotus root powder.
These were picked by Xiao Xiao nearby. The petals washed by the rain did not fall apart, but instead became even brighter and more juicy, making people who saw them smile.
"May you rest in peace."
Xiao Xiao said this softly, then quietly stepped aside.
The Pipa Demon was still a little confused, but gradually seemed to understand something.
Its expression was blank, and it even showed a bit of indifference.
However, Xiao Xiao knew that this monster just didn't know what expression to make.
After a brief moment of daze, the Pipa Demon sat cross-legged on the ground without caring about the mud and clay on the ground.
The silver-gray nails gleam with a dark luster.
A beautiful and graceful pipa music sounded faintly.
It was raining, and even the music of the pipa seemed to be stained by the color of the water, exuding a bit of transparent sadness and melancholy.
……
When I returned to the alley again, the rain had eased a lot.
Xiao Xiao looked around the scene where the bodies were dumped. There were no cat corpses all over the ground, and the rain had washed everything clean.
However, the lives lost cannot be brought back.
Xiao Xiao wanted to do something to comfort the souls of the deceased.
Moreover, the death of these cats was not simply caused by cruelty.
The smell emanating from the cat's wounds made him unhappy and uneasy.
Why were these cats killed?
……
So many cat carcasses should not have been discarded on the same day.
This might be the place where the cat abuser abandoned the cat's body.
Then, it is very likely that the cat abuser will come back to dump the body.
"Zui Ru."
Therefore, as long as he is not too unlucky, he only needs to sit back and wait to catch this cruel rabbit.
"Puff~" Zhui Ru shook his white ears, and the strange cry was like the sound of jet.
"Zuru, stay here. If you see anyone dumping a cat corpse here, notify me."
"Be careful not to be discovered."
The sniper is small, agile and good at hiding his body.
If there was something wrong with the person who abandoned the cat corpse, it would not be easy for Zhu Ru to be discovered.
“Puff~Puff~” Zhui Ru nodded.
……
"Pipa Ghost, I will find out who really killed these cats."
"Before that, don't come near here."
Judging from the few encounters so far, this Pipa ghost has no fighting power at all and doesn't seem to be very courageous.
Sometimes I feel dazed.
For the sake of the monster's safety, and with nothing certain to be determined, Xiao Xiao felt that it would be better to keep it away from here.
