Chapter 2006 Mission
"Take the bus back to school."
Xiao Xiao’s words stunned Meng Jixi.
Then he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay."
……
After getting off the car, Meng Jixi looked at Xiao Xiao.
Just now in the car, in order not to disturb Master Xiao's work, he consciously remained silent.
But now...it should be fine.
"Master Xiao, did you find anything?"
"No."
Xiao Xiao shook his head.
He walked the road from Zhao Yihuan's home to school twice but found nothing.
Did Xiaoyi leave due to his own reasons or was he forcibly taken away?
If it is due to your own reasons, is it because you saw something?
Things that attract monsters...
If you are attacked by humans or other monsters-
In fact, Xiao Xiao is more inclined towards people.
After all, what kind of monster could take Xiaoyi away silently?
Xiaoyi is not weak.
In today's Dharma-Ending Age, Xiaoyi's strength has been steadily and slowly improving, especially in recent years with Zhao Yihuan's stable supply.
Of course, there is another reason why Xiao Xiao made such a guess.
It’s just that… there are very few monsters who act so low-key.
For most monsters, being straightforward is their consistent choice.
If other monsters attacked Xiaoyi, Zhao Yihuan would not be unaware of it.
Could it be... a monster that is good at hiding?
In human terms...
Xiao Xiao's eyes lit up slightly.
Meng Jixi, who was always paying attention to the changes in Xiao Xiao's expression, blurted out, "Master Xiao, do you have any ideas?"
There was a hint of thoughtfulness in Xiao Xiao's eyes.
"I was just thinking... whether it's looking for people or monsters, it really takes more people."
Ok?
Meng Jixi was stunned.
Of course he knew this, but...
He suddenly knocked his head.
He was also thinking in the wrong direction.
He only knows Master Xiao as someone who can see monsters, but Master Xiao is not that person.
Master Xiao must have his own connections.
"Where are you going?"
Meng Jixi asked directly.
"Yenjing University."
Xiao Xiao smiled, "Please take me back to school."
Meng Jixi: ...
"of course."
Meng Jixi opened the car door and said, "Master Xiao, please."
……
In the car, noticing the flashing green light ahead, Meng Jixi slowly stepped on the brakes.
"Master Xiao, will you come out tomorrow?"
"do not know."
Xiao Xiao slowly stroked the little white fox's soft hair.
"I'll tell you when there's a result."
"it is good."
Meng Jixi laughed.
Although monster matters were not something he could get involved in, people were always curious.
Especially when I know a lot about the situation.
……
Meng Jixi parked the car at the gate of Yenching University's residential area with familiarity.
"Master Xiao, goodbye."
Meng Jixi leaned forward and waved at Xiao Xiao.
"If you need any help, just give me a call."
"I'm always available."
Then, considering the possibility of his mission, Meng Jixi added, "Try your best."
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved slightly.
"Ok."
"I'll call you if I need anything."
"Goodbye."
……
After watching Meng Jixi's car drive out of sight, Xiao Xiao turned and walked into the campus.
There was no one in the dormitory.
Xiao Xiao took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
“Beep~beep~beep-”
The call was answered.
"Friend Xiao Xiao?"
The old man's surprised voice came from the phone. "Is this the first time you call me?"
"Mr. Jiang."
Xiao Xiao smiled, "Hello."
"It's been a long time since I last met you."
"Haha."
Elder Jiang laughed heartily, "Young friend Xiao Xiao, your words are a bit too polite."
"What do you mean by long time no greeting?"
"I'm very happy that Xiao Xiao called me."
……
After a few simple greetings, Mr. Jiang got down to business.
"Little friend Xiao Xiao, is there something you want to talk about this time?"
"Ah."
Xiao Xiao was not surprised by the old man's sharpness.
After all, the most likely reason for a sudden call from someone you haven't contacted for a while is that they want to ask you something.
"Mr. Jiang, I have something I want to trouble you with."
"You said."
Mr. Jiang did not agree immediately.
His abilities are limited.
If what Xiao Xiao asked him to do was beyond his ability, even if he was very sorry, he would have no choice but to refuse.
……
Xiao Xiao briefly recounted Xiaoyi's disappearance to Mr. Jiang.
"Mr. Jiang, I want to ask you for a favor..."
"Can we ask the Demon Master Alliance to help find Xiaoyi?"
……
So that’s what happened…
Mr. Jiang felt a little relieved.
"of course can."
He responded quickly.
Young friend Xiao Xiao is very powerful.
Although he refused to join the Demon Master Alliance, it would be beneficial for him personally and for the Demon Master Alliance to establish a good relationship with Xiao Xiao.
One more friend is better than one more enemy.
As long as it is within his ability, Mr. Jiang is willing to help Xiao Xiao.
Before, he was just a little worried. Even Xiao Xiao needed help. Could he help?
Now after listening to Xiao Xiao's request, he felt a little enlightened.
No wonder Xiao Xiao came to ask for help from him.
Finding a monster is just like finding a person. Naturally, the more people you have to help, the better.
……
"Little friend Xiao Xiao, don't worry."
Elder Jiang patted his chest and promised, "I will publish your request in the form of a task on the Demon Master Alliance platform, so that all the demon masters in the Demon Master Alliance can see it."
"If anyone has any news, please contact me."
"I'll contact you then."
"Thank you."
The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth curved upward.
With the help of the demon masters from the entire Demon Master Alliance, the probability of finding Xiaoyi is obviously much greater.
"Mr. Jiang, do you need any reward for issuing tasks? I-"
"no, I'm fine."
Elder Jiang interrupted Xiao Xiao and said, "Indeed, publishing tasks on the alliance platform requires alliance points."
"Those who accept the mission also need to be rewarded with points."
"But Xiao Xiao, you are not a member of the alliance and do not have any alliance points."
"Besides, it's just looking for the trace of a monster. It's not a difficult task."
"It won't cost many points."
"If you really feel bad about it, next time if I have to go on a dangerous mission, I'll trouble you, Xiao Xiao, to help an old man like me."
"of course."
Xiao Xiao accepted the old man's kindness.
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang."
"You're welcome, you're welcome."
Mr. Jiang has a bright voice and is full of energy.
Just by listening to the voice, you would never tell that this is an old man in his sixties.
……
The next day, Xiao Xiao came to the vicinity of Zhao Yihuan's school again.
Although Mr. Jiang posted the task of finding Xiaoyi on the Demon Master Alliance platform.
But he also can't leave everything to others and do nothing himself.
Since he told Zhao Yihuan that he would try his best, he naturally did what he said.
……
This time he did not take the bus, but walked along the bus route at a leisurely pace.
