Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 429 Your Past
"A long, long time ago, an ogre fortune teller observed the stars at night and saw an opportunity that fell from the sky. It brought hope to the tribe that was almost wiped out after being defeated in the war and returned to its peak. They gave this destined child who fell from the sky a name, Duan - Oops, oops, wrong, wrong, don't pinch my tail!"

Jiu Yue stood on tiptoe as her sensitive tail was attacked. The painful and itchy feeling made a few tears seep out of the corners of her eyes.

"Why are you always so passionate about the topic of ogres?"

Duan Mingyuan did not intend to let go until Jiu Yue gave a satisfactory answer.

It seems that September has already made up a story about his past.

It also seems to incorporate elements from films such as "Tarzan" and "Rise of the Planet of the Apes".

"Didn't I tell you before on the eco-ship that ogres are the oldest and most powerful race on the Blue Planet?"

"anything else?"

Duan Mingyuan increased the strength of his hands.

"Oh, I'll tell you. I'll tell you everything! Because every time I mention ogre, your expression looks funny!"

Duan Mingyuan is a person with extremely stable emotions. Coupled with his seemingly omnipotent abilities, he can handle all crises with ease. Jiu Yue has almost never seen Duan Mingyuan get angry in daily life.

Except when she kept saying the word "ogre".

From trying to ignore restraint to being unable to bear it any longer, this change in emotions always makes September feel very interesting, so much so that she can't help but be naughty even at the risk of having her tail pinched in someone's hand.

After all, being pinched on the tail is only temporary, but the mental pleasure it brings can last for a long time.

"that's it?"

Duan Mingyuan was skeptical.

He thought September would tell a touching story, for example, that she had met the survivors of the ogre tribe in her childhood and received their kindness, so she had been obsessed with the ogre tribe ever since.

But now it seems that this reason is no different from that of a kid in junior high school who tried to attract attention by flirting with the opposite sex.

Perhaps this has something to do with the fact that this is Jiuyue’s first love in her life, and the way she has fun is still at the junior high school stage.

Just like now.

Duan Mingyuan let go of the little fox's tail, and the tail, which had regained its freedom, began to swing restlessly, rubbing against the back of his hand from time to time, which was quite provocative.

"I don't want to hear about ogres for the next day."

The reason why Duan Mingyuan called Jiu Yue here was not only because he trusted her, but also because he was impressed by Jiu Yue's wild imagination.

This little fox seemed to be at two extremes of his personality, but imagination itself was a double-edged sword, and he didn't want any trace of the ogre tribe to appear in his past.

"Order!"

September raised his right arm and shouted loudly.

At this moment, the two of them were standing on the street, but the passers-by seemed not to notice their presence.

After a while, Jiu Yue seemed to notice something was wrong. She tiptoed to the old man who was sitting on a stone bench by the roadside and waved her hand in front of him.

The old man looked straight ahead and continued with what he was doing. He unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and began to sip.

"They can't see us."

September concluded.

"Because this is a certain memory, and you and I don't exist in this memory."

Duan Mingyuan said calmly.

He had been here many times, standing across the street, looking out at the high school across the street as school was about to end.

It was 5:40 in the afternoon and the school gate was already crowded with parents picking up their children, most of them were elderly.

The vendors also took action. There were a variety of snacks on the carts outside the school. Duan Mingyuan liked a barbecue stall the most. The stall owner was a retired man in his sixties who usually did some small business to supplement his family income. One shell and three skewers of chicken skin. After school, he only needed to spend five shells of pocket money to have a luxurious meal.

“This is your high school!”

September immediately became interested.

Duan Mingyuan seldom takes photos. There are almost no photos of him at home, and most of the photos in his mobile phone are ID photos. The only photo that can represent Duan Mingyuan's high school years is a graduation photo.

Jiu Yue has complained more than once that Duan Mingyuan in high school did not look photogenic at all in photos. He had a stern face and dead eyes, which gave people a somewhat ferocious first impression.

During the conversation, the first group of students rushed out of the campus.

They are often the most active people after school, and often pack their schoolbags less than five minutes after the last class, just to rush out of the classroom door as soon as the teacher announces "get out of class is over".

This is very strategic, as after-school activists can always get a good position among the vendors and eat the first batch of steaming hot after-school snacks.

The reason why Duan Mingyuan knew it so clearly was because he was one of the activists who stayed after school.

Jiu Yue recognized Duan Mingyuan from high school at first sight.

Carrying his schoolbag, he was the first one to rush out of the school gate.

He squeezed out of the crowd and headed towards the barbecue stall immediately.

It was obvious that Duan Mingyuan was a regular customer here. The old man recognized him and before he got close, he had already put three skewers of chicken skin, five skewers of chicken hearts and two skewers of grilled rice cakes on the iron plate with a smile.

“Very good, very tasteful.”

September folded her arms across her chest and nodded repeatedly.

If it were her, she might even add a few more skewers of chicken gizzards.

This is Duan Mingyuan’s dinner.

He has the habit of ordering takeout earlier than most people. As early as high school, he was used to eating out and then going home.

Because he had other things to do in the hours after school and before dark.

He had a rich after-school life as early as high school.

The reason I chose this memory is because it is a special day.

He picked out the most thrilling and intense incident from all the encounters with evil spirits he had experienced in high school.

He lost his usual school bag during this battle.

Later, during his conversation with Oe, he learned some additional information.

For example, people from the Imperial Hunting Court had also been to the scene, and because of the appearance of an evil spirit that was beyond the intelligence, the entire hunting team was wiped out.

If his past memories had been tampered with, he would have to find clues from these familiar fragments.

Duan Mingyuan slowly closed his eyes.

The next moment, all the sounds at the school gate were amplified.

Jiu Yue almost subconsciously covered her ears. Countless voices overlapped together, but she could still hear what everyone said.

Some parents were scolding their children for failing the monthly exam, some children were begging their grandparents to buy them snacks, and some students were walking together after school, chatting about the latest popular games and cartoons.

Until she heard a woman's voice.

"The target appeared, he was in front of the barbecue stall...

"Well, I'll follow him closely."
