Chapter 12 Seven-day hearing (12)

Liu Xiuyun walked through the woods, the sunlight obliquely passed through the gaps in the forest, and the dust flickered between the tree gaps, chasing the turbulent airflow.He raised his head and followed the air current. Someone used magic in the woods. He searched along the force field of the magic and saw several young magicians playing with balls in the trees.Their young figures flashed among the tall tree trunks, a one-way sound barrier stood nearby, and he stopped to watch them for a moment, then moved away again before they found him.

He returned to the hall, wandered around for a while, and finally turned into a corridor.He stood at the end of the corridor for a while, silently admiring the afterglow of the setting sun outside the window.Not long after, a door next to him opened, and a young man came out, looking at him with emotionless eyes for a while.

He turned around and looked at the young but cold man who looked like an ancient knife.He unconsciously thought that he had lived for a century, but he seemed to have more vitality than the man in front of him.

Du Zhengyi said the first sentence, "You woke up Luo Qi."

Liu Xiuyun was taken aback for a moment, Du Zhengyi not only disapproved of meeting him here, but also dissatisfied.

He didn't expect the conversation to start like this, suddenly didn't know what to say, and looked at Qionglin's most famous young man stiffly.

Du Zhengyi frowned impatiently and did him a favor, "Roach said you came to find me."

"Yes." Liu Xiuyun nodded.

"Don't do this next time." Du Zhengyi raised his hand and knocked on the door panel, "This is called knocking on the door, and it's the most common way to get someone to come out."

Liu Xiuyun felt that his blood pressure rose all of a sudden, and he couldn't bear it.

Du Zhengyi continued, "Don't use this method of testing Roach."

Liu Xiuyun looked into his eyes, he couldn't see any emotional fluctuations in Du Zhengyi, those eyes were fearless and never hesitated.

"I assure you I didn't mean that."

Du Zheng looked at him for a while, and finally nodded.

"Has Luo Qi's body recovered yet?" Liu Xiuyun asked, he suddenly thought that none of them had cared about Luo Qi's health for a while, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty.All of them seemed to have subconsciously decided that Roach's absence was just an excuse for Roach to avoid appearing at the hearing in person.

Du Zhengyi's expression also became more patient, "He is recovering and will be fine. It's just that his body is still very weak now, and we hope he will recover for a while."

"Need to stay away from the crowd to recover?" Liu Xiuyun still has some understanding of the physical characteristics of mind mages.

Du Zheng nodded, "You want to talk to me? Let's go to a place farther away, and the emotions of strangers will disturb him. With all due respect, Master Liu has a very flammable temper."

Liu Xiuyun swallowed a breath, and reminded himself not to be caught by this brat, and not to explode in front of him immediately.

Du Zhengyi had already turned around and started walking.Liu Xiuyun followed behind the young man, and they walked in silence for a while, through the corridor.Du Zhengyi was silent, his steps were steady, his slender body carried an elegant rhythm in his movements, he couldn't help but think of a cheetah.When that creature walks through the forest, it also has such a posture, graceful and confident, with the control gained from occupying the top of the food chain all the year round.He was very annoyed with Du Zhengyi. Anyone who saw him would be annoyed, but he couldn't help admiring him.

They stopped at the teleportation point at the end of the corridor, and Du Zhengyi dominated the teleportation position. They ended the teleportation in a corner of the tropical rainforest, surrounded by loud insects, and huge broad leaves blocked their surroundings.

Du Zhengyi turned around and looked at him, silently waiting for him to speak first.He suddenly didn't know what to say. He couldn't confide his depression these days and his doubts about the mage society to a junior, right?He was embarrassed by this silence, but found that the young man was more patient than him. Du Zhengyi did not urge him, and after waiting for a while, he suddenly took out a cigarette from his pocket, "Do you mind? I'm going to suffocate to death these days." gone."

Liu Xiuyun was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head.

Du Zheng glanced at him, "Roach's lungs have just grown back, the doctor won't let me smoke next to him."

"You've been with him all this time?"

Du Zheng smiled, took a deep breath of the cigarette and let it out again, he was troubled, not really so troubled. "Yeah, guess how many people are interested in him? Killing him is a choice. Being able to control him is another choice. It's rare to live in, isn't it?"

Liu Xiuyun was unwilling to answer this question.

Du Zhengyi said, "I'm going back after smoking. I shouldn't be away for too long. But in general, Roach can handle it by himself."

Liu Xiuyun heard his tactful urging, and suddenly said recklessly, "Master Bailida doesn't accept any evidence, he doesn't look at the evidence at all."

Shrouded in the smoke, Du Zheng nodded his head, almost immediately, "The kind of people who are afraid of mind mages?"

"This is unfair." Liu Xiuyun said angrily.

Du Zhengyi thought for a while, but was still not angry, "Not many things are fair."

"What's your plan?" Liu Xiuyun looked at Du Zhengyi in surprise, "You've thought of it a long time ago?"

"There is always this possibility." Du Zhengyi said, "I will persuade Venerable Liu Li to put pressure on him."

Liu Xiuyun said disappointedly, "I don't think that would be of much use. Although we are not familiar with each other, I would like to ask, what are your other plans?"

"The next round of hearings, or the next round of hearings, I think Qionglin will support my request. Barida has been following the hearings, and he will soon be unbearable." Du Zheng looked at Liu Xiuyun for a while , continued, "In the first 30 years of his life, Barida met a female mage, fell in love, and got married. He was doing well until a male mind mage appeared and snatched him away. Wife. I heard that the mage may not have used mind magic, because Barida initiated a lawsuit. As a result, the Mind Master Society proved that his wife was not misled by any mind. But I think Barida refused to accept this reality. They all hate mind mages."

"You... how do you know this..." Liu Xiuyun asked in surprise.

"I have my channel. I'm a battle mage. I've been dealing with all kinds of mentally ill people. It's very important to collect information." Du Zhengyi said nonchalantly, his mouth still so bruised.

"But if you return to Qionglin now, your safety may not be guaranteed." Liu Xiuyun said, but he cheered up again, thinking of what he wanted to say when he came here, "If it really comes to that point, I am willing to coordinate All departments, provide Luo Qi with a relatively safe environment. Although the department I manage is not responsible for security, I have been in Qionglin for a long time and have a wide range of people. Many departments have their own problems, and this time will not I want to take care of you."

Du Zhengyi was really surprised, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "Thank you, Master Liu."

Liu Xiuyun shook his head, and didn't want to accept this kind of gratitude. It should be his responsibility to protect the underage mages.

"I want to ask, Master Liu, have you trusted Roach after hearing these few days?" Du Zhengyi asked.

"I am a cautious and serious person." Liu Xiuyun said.

Du Zhengyi thought for a while, "You don't believe Roach, but if there is no evidence to prove his guilt, you don't want to hold on to him."

"Guilty?" Liu Xiuyun shook his head again, staring at Du Zhengyi, "No, I believe that Luo Qi is definitely not guilty, at least until now, he has not done anything guilty. Especially with you all the time near him I believe that he has no chance to commit a crime. What we want to prove is not whether he is guilty or not. His energy is too great, and we cannot afford that if he is a person with ulterior motives, he will commit multiple crimes in the future."

"How do people's hearts prove it?" Du Zhengyi asked. "There is a poem among human beings—the Duke of Zhou was afraid of rumors, but Wang Mang was humble before usurping. Xiang Shi died at the beginning, who would know the truth in his life? There is also a saying called the conclusion of the coffin. Therefore, until the day of Luo Qi's death, Will this kind of entanglement always accompany him?"

"I know you are his friend." Liu Xiuyun said, "I understand your feelings. You can't bear such things emotionally. But we all need to think about the future of our race, and this is also your duty. Your teacher I value you, and I believe that no one is more dedicated than you. The dedication you have made to Qionglin is obvious to all. I believe that if Roach really goes astray one day in the future, you will put the responsibility on the friendship superior."

"Of course." Du Zhengyi said softly, "I will dedicate myself to my duties as long as I live."

Liu Xiuyun didn't know why he felt a little uneasy, but this thought was ignored before it entered his heart, and he asked Du Zhengyi, "I want to ask why you believe that Luo Qi is harmless? Oh, it's an important deposition, but I don't want to make this a formal event."

"Thank you." Du Zhengyi understood his kindness and nodded to thank him.
