Chapter 17 Greedy Animals

Three days had passed since the confrontation that day, and Xiao Xiao had not encountered that monster again.

Although he had never seen the monster's true form, the little fox on its shoulder and the huge fox tail he saw in a trance gave him reason to believe that it was a fox demon, commonly known as a fox spirit.

The other party's last words were still ringing in his ears, making his ears subconsciously numb.

I have to sigh, she is indeed a vixen.

Unfortunately, she is not the harmless, beautiful and infatuated vixen as described in the storybooks.

The coldness in this vixen's eyes is chilling and frightening.

I wonder if a monster whose true form has not been seen can appear on the black notebook?
Xiao Xiao was finally the only one left in the dormitory that day, and he couldn't wait to take out his black notebook.

The mullet, the ear mouse, the qinyuan, and other bizarre monsters appear vividly on the yellowed paper. The bright red cinnabar seems to have vitality, giving the illusion that it is flowing slowly.

Xiao Xiao stopped turning the pages and slowly stroked the paper with Qin Yuan's picture on it.

The slightly rough texture has the aura of mountains and lakes, which makes people's hearts fall into a quiet and distant state.

Xiao Xiao slowly turned the page, and a blank piece of paper came into view.

Xiao Xiao stroked the paper gently with his fingertips.

The bright red cinnabar slowly seeped out.

Xiao Xiao moved his fingers away, and a faint pattern emerged, slowly smudged like an ink painting, from light to dark.

It's a red fox.

Xiao Xiao was somewhat surprised, but also somewhat expectant.

"It is indeed a fox demon." Xiao Xiao murmured.

However, Xiao Xiao tapped his fingertips lightly, one, two, he was not dazzled, this was indeed a fox with two tails.

Could this be the incompletely evolved version of the legendary nine-tailed fox?

However, Xiao Xiao suddenly thought of a question. Since the image of a fox demon can appear in the notebook, can he summon a fox demon when he faces the fox demon next time?

There was one thing he hadn't figured out.

Is the monster he summoned later the same one he encountered?

Or are they just the same species, but different individuals?
Maybe I can try it next time I have the chance.

After all, whether it is a confrontation between two fox demons or he can forcibly summon the fox demon he encounters, either situation is very interesting.

……

"Hey, have you heard? Ruan Rou is dead!" Zhuge Yun started muttering before he even stepped into the dormitory.

Full of sighs and lamentations, entangled with a bit of sadness and melancholy.

Even if you are classmates who have only met a few times, and you clearly saw each other some time ago, in such a short period of time, you have become separated from each other forever.

One cannot help but sigh that life is unpredictable.

"what?"

"Really?"

Zhang Bo and Zhao Lu were so shocked that they sat up straight and looked at each other.

"How did he die?" Xiao Xiao clenched his hands tightly, and his white fingertips pinched into his palms hard, causing a slight stinging sensation.

"I heard he died in a car accident."

"Car accidents. Cars are really getting more and more reckless these days."

"Yeah, it's really hard to guard against. You never know when a car might suddenly appear."

"Is he really dead?" Xiao Xiao still had some disbelief in his answer.

What a joke! Even if he didn't know the strength classification of monsters, how could a fox that could possess humans and had two tails, and the oppressive feeling of a great monster that he personally felt, be hit and killed by a car? It was simply ridiculous!

Since the previous speculation is unreliable, then, could it be intentional?

So, why?
Why die?
Too boring? Or... the purpose has been achieved?

……

"Don't make me wait too long." The girl's innocent voice was a little hoarse because she deliberately lowered her voice, and it revealed a touch of rosemary charm, like a whisper ringing in the ear, making people's ears numb for no reason.

Xiao Xiao touched his ears. The words that suddenly rang in his mind had a "earth-shattering" effect, which made his whole body stiffen and his expression freeze.

What do you mean?
Could it be that the words the other party said casually last time had already hinted at what happened today?

If so, he was really fooled!
He was trying desperately to save that girl, and during this time he was frustrated by his own inability to do anything, and was also happy for every little discovery. But when he was working hard with all his heart, she died? The person he wanted to save died!

How could this be possible! Xiao Xiao only felt a twitching sensation in his cerebral cortex, which made his vision go dark.

How dare that demon fox? !

Even though he didn't know the specific circumstances, he had a strong premonition: the girl's car accident was directed by the fox demon, and the girl was killed by the fox demon!

It has clearly possessed someone's body, so will it take the host's life in the end?
……

"It's true that there are always unexpected events. How come..."

"Yes, such a pretty girl."

"What a shame, he's so young."

……

Zhang Bo and his friends were shocked by the news. They were classmates from the same school and had met each other several times before. After the initial shock, they couldn't help but fall into silence. For a moment, the atmosphere in the dormitory was a little stagnant.

Later, Zhuge Yun spoke first, breaking the depressing atmosphere.

Gradually everyone started chatting.

After all, we are not very familiar with each other, and the depression is only temporary. It is just some regret and sorrow about the fragility of life and the irretrievable loss of life.

"Third brother, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Xiao, who had been silent all the time, aroused Zhao Luzheng's suspicion.

"Hmm? Third brother, why are you so quiet?"

"Don't tell me, you're crying?"

Zhuge Yun's somewhat exaggerated and malicious question made Xiao Xiao roll his eyes at him.

"I'm fine." It's just that he was a little out of control just now. In order to prevent Zhang Bo and the others from noticing anything unusual, he kept his head down and concealed all his expressions.

Xiao Xiao smiled as always, without a trace of gloom between his brows.

However, he knew that if he met that fox demon again next time, he would never let her go!

But maybe he was just bragging. Even if he had some extraordinary qualities, he was still a mortal at heart. How could he fight a monster? Especially a very powerful monster.

Rely on the black notebook to summon monsters?

He suddenly felt extremely unwilling. He could clearly see monsters and summon them, so why didn't he have the slightest ability to fight against them?

An ability that belongs to him alone without the help of external forces.

He wanted this kind of power.

Urgent, eager.

Are humans really greedy animals?

He has clearly been blessed by God, but he is still not satisfied.
