Chapter 16

The demon market during the day is quiet, and the work and rest of the world are inconsistent. This is the time for the demons to rest. Wu Zhen came to Yanlou to look for something, and unexpectedly found that his friend Liu Taizhen, whom he had not seen for several days, was also here.

"Little snake!" Wu Zhen walked behind Liu Taizhen and patted her shoulder suddenly.

She walked quietly. Liu Tai was really in a daze and was really scared by her. However, Liu Tai was a steady person who was as motionless as a mountain. Even if she was frightened, she didn't show it on her face. She was still sitting on the blue-gray roof overlooking the endless blue-gray roof under the Yan Tower.

Wu Zhen raised his legs and sat on the railing, looked at her side: "What's wrong? Don't you stay at home at this time? Why did you run to Yanlou alone? It's okay?"

Liu Taizhen finally turned her head and looked at her, but did not answer the question, but said, "You have been making a lot of trouble these two days."

Of course Wu Zhen knew what she was saying. She had found a few little demons in the demon market to scare Lu Zhi. In the past few days, the little demons took turns to go there. After coming back, they would describe in detail how they were scared to Lu Zhi, and they seemed to be very happy to tell them. Some of them were responsible, and they would collect opinions from other demons and try to make Lu Zhi scared out new tricks every day. So these days, the bored little demons spontaneously gathered in Yanmen Square, waiting for the scary little demons to come back to chat, which was very lively.

It's not their fault. In fact, these little monsters have a boring life like humans. They are prone to overexciting anything. In addition, such things are hard to come by - after all, if it weren't for the cat man's request, they cannot scare ordinary people for no reason, otherwise they will be dealt with miserably.

Perhaps this is the joy of bullying people under the order.

Of course Wu Zhen knew that she was doing something inappropriate, but she had always been thicker than her friends and did not take this little mistake to heart. At this moment, she even invited her friends to join in the grand ceremony, "Do you want the little snake to join in the fun together? I remember that Lu Zhi, you don't like it either. Why not turn into a snake and scare him."

Liu Taizhen sneered, but in the end she didn't say anything, "It's wrong to select a little demon to harass ordinary people without permission." She just reminded her indifferently: "Stop it when you can."

Wu Zhen nodded happily, "I know, I can't scare him to death, so I let him stay at home for a year or two, so as to avoid bullying my fiancé again."

When Liu Taizhen heard this fiancée, he looked at his friend seriously, "Wu Zhen, are you serious this time?"

Wu Zhen: "Everyone else has asked, I'm wondering when you will ask me about this, and finally I can't stand it." After she smiled, she touched her nose with a little uncertainty and said, "It should be serious, at least more serious than the previous few times."

Putting aside that psychological burden, Wu Zhen held Liu Taizhen's shoulder and joked, "Okay, Xiaoshe, I'm married, you are only one year younger than me. From now on, you will be the oldest unmarried lady in our circle."

Liu Taizhen said coldly: "So what? I won't marry, will anyone dare say something?"

Wu Zhen:...This is really not.

Their Snake Gong, as human beings, is the only daughter of Yushi Liu. In the eyes of outsiders, they have been weak and sickly since childhood. They have always looked pale and weak. Yushi Liu protects her with eyes and wishes she could take care of her daughter for the rest of her life. How could she feel assured that she would get married? Yushi Liu, whom God dares to participate, dares to say that Madam Liu is not good, and she is waiting to be spitted by dozens of black-faced censors.

However... Wu Zhen reached out and pinched his friend's excessive white face and looked carefully, "I say little snake, your sick and deceptive appearance inherited from the Snake Maleman is too strong." It would be fine if an outsider who didn't know Liu Taizhen's identity, but Wu Zhen had seen this man strangled the black bear demon with one hand. A black bear demon as tall as a city tower, and he would strangle it to death. But even though he knew that she was a terrible guy inside, Wu Zhen could not help but take care of her when he saw her pale appearance. This may be a habit he had developed since childhood.

Liu Taizhen opened Wu Zhen's hand, looked at her quietly for a while, and did not ask any questions. She turned her eyes away and continued to look into the distant sky.

After careful calculation, Liu Taizhen and Wu Zhen met Zhuangjiao. The two were of the same age and had the same identity, but their temperaments were different. Liu Taizhen still remembers that the first time she met Wu Zhen was in Yanlou. At that time, the cat man who took office had already left, and his mother brought the new "kitten man" to her to introduce him to her.

At that time, Wu Zhen was very naughty. A girl of a few years old was not afraid of the world. She ran up and down the Yanlou and touched around. While she was sitting quietly waiting to meet this new friend, Wu Zhen almost locked off the beads on the roof of Yanlou. She finally sat opposite her peacefully, and suddenly threw out a little bug to scare her. She was really a bad boy.

The mother held the hands of the two of them and said to her: "Taizhen, this is the new cat man. From now on, you will be your companions who take care of the demon market together." At that time, she was actually very happy because as a child born to humans and demons, she was born to see all kinds of ominous things, but she could not tell anyone other than her mother, so she had no friends since she was a child. From that day on, she had a friend who could also see all kinds of monsters and monsters. Although this friend really likes to cause trouble and is too playful. But it cannot be denied that since her mother left, the friend was also a companion who could make her feel at ease during the years when they took care of the demon market.

From a quiet and jumping out of the corner to a dignified and elegant mature woman now, the two know each other better than their blood relatives...

"He should be in the Ministry of Justice at this time." Wu Zhen didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly laughed and said, "Little Snake, I'll leave first, go and see my little husband. You can continue to be dazed here, and help me see those scary little monsters at night. I'll be nowhere to come tonight."

She left after saying that, leaving only Liu Taizhen's back.

Liu Taizhen looked at the familiar back and disappeared from her sight, and felt a little melancholy in her heart for no reason. She had to breathe a sigh of relief. Her best friend was about to get married, and it seemed that she had embarked on a different path from her, and she felt a little... lonely.

At noon, the sun was hot and the room began to feel a little warm. Mei Zhuyu finished lunch in the canteen of the Ministry of Justice and returned to the office of the official office. If nothing unexpected happened, she saw a familiar tabby cat on the tung tree outside the window.

These days, he can always see this tabby cat. If he hadn't really felt the demonic aura on the cat, he would really think that this ordinary tabby cat was abnormal.

The tung flowers outside the window have long faded. Now the branches are covered with green leaves, and the cat is still lying comfortably on the branches, as if quite satisfied with this nap treasure land. Mei Zhuyu only glanced at it twice and turned her eyes back to the official business in her hands, not caring about the extra cats around her.

Wu Zhen, who turned into a cat again, held his hair paws, and from time to time opened his eyes to look at the figure working at the desk. She did not intend to peep, but something like Lu Zhi happened a few days ago. She came over to see her when she had nothing to do, so as not to let the little husband suffer any unrestrained disasters. After all, cough cough, she would not restrain herself when she was young and offended many people. Those shameless things don’t make any hatred and do not involve their family members.

In the past few days, Wu Zhen often turned into a cat and followed Mei Zhuyu. This future husband's life is regular and ordinary, and he is even more bored than ordinary people. He either works in the Ministry of Justice or goes home to rest without any entertainment. An ordinary husband, no matter how upright and low-key, he will occasionally find a few friends and go to Lefang to have some wine to talk about his relationship, but this young husband can be called withdrawn.

Wu Zhen followed him for a few days, and seeing that he had the same cold attitude towards colleagues and strangers, he couldn't help but wonder whether the blushing and smiles he saw when he met him in the past were all fake, but she imagined it herself.

"Dr. Mei, Mr. Xu asked you to go to this case." A minor official hurried over.

Wu Zhen listened outside the window, stood up and shook his hair, and went out with Mei Zhuyu. Mei Zhuyu was going to go to the prison of the Ministry of Justice to examine a prisoner who had just brought back. This was not his job, but the Minister Xu gave it to him. Mei Zhuyu didn't care about that much, so he continued to go to the prison with a crying official alone.

Wu Zhen has never been to this Ministry of Justice Prison, and it is not a fun place, and there is still a lot of foul air. But since the little man is there, she will go and have a look.

The prison looked pretty good outside, but it was hard to describe inside. After all, it was for prisoners to live in, and the conditions were not improved. As soon as a person walked in, he could first feel a cool air climbing up his ankles, and then all kinds of unpleasant and pungent odors came to his face, which could almost stammer. The little official who followed Mei Zhuyu took a step back unconsciously, but seeing the boss in front of him keep walking forward, he had to smile and pinch his nose and follow him.

Wu Zhen also smelled the smell and instantly realized that this was not a good job. She hesitated to look at the suspicious water stains on the cell floor, moved a few beards in disgust, and finally jumped lightly and ran from the wall to catch up with Mei Zhuyu.

It is not difficult to interrogate the prisoner to record confessions, but it is very annoying, especially in the bad environment, which makes people extremely impatient. If it is added with an annoying person who does not cooperate, it will be a disaster.

The prisoner was a middle-aged man full of sorrow and vicissitudes. He killed his wife by mistake and was sentenced. He started crying since he saw Mei Zhuyu, crying with tears in his nose and tears. Mei Zhuyu sat in a seat with expressionless face and wrote a record, and sometimes stopped writing and asked a question. The man initially refused to answer vaguely, but Mei Zhuyu was patient and curious, so he looked at him crying coldly, and continued to ask after crying. After a long time, the man shrank his head and stammered and answered the question.

Wu Zhen stood on an oil lamp stand, with a hidden position. During the process of recording the confession, she counted how many times the minor official behind Mei Zhuyu rolled his eyes impatiently, and counted how many times the man cried, "Sir, please spare me! I really didn't mean it!". Mei Zhuyu really didn't even move his eyebrows throughout the whole process, and pulled his sleeves dipped ink to record, asking questions about his identity, hometown, and crime, without any extra word.

If it were Wu Zhen, the man might have been annoyed and pressed him on the record book when he bowed for mercy for the second time. Wu Zhen admired Xiao Langjun's patience and good temper, and at the same time, he felt that the panicked young man he had seen before might be a fake.

After half of the interrogation, Wu Zhen announced his surrender and abandoned Xiaolangjun and walked out of prison by himself. However, she did not go home and just wandered around the office of the Ministry of Justice. As a result, she accidentally heard someone saying bad things about Xiaolangjun behind her back.
