Chapter 257 Where is the culprit?
Therefore, this behavior is more like a prank on him.
But undoubtedly, this kind of harmless prank makes people even more angry.
He had nowhere to vent his anger. If he knew who was so bored and made such a nasty joke on him, he would definitely drag that bastard to the training ground and torture him until the bastard walked around next time he saw him!
……
Xiao Xiao curled his lips helplessly. The moment the fruit was smashed, he noticed the evil spirit coming from the tree.
Following the demonic aura, he looked to the big leafy tree to one side. There was a snow-white figure standing there among the branches, "嘤嘤~嘤嘤~", with a childish cry that sounded soft and sweet. , which makes people feel soft inexplicably, but he clearly heard the ridicule in it.
Obviously Meng Jixi's embarrassment and anger made the little monster take pleasure in his misfortune.
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but guess, what did Meng Jixi do to make this little monster target him like this?
Because of the obstruction of the branches and leaves, Xiao Xiao could not see the whole thing of the little monster clearly.
But it should be a monster that looks like a bird.
"Master Xiao?"
Chi Xiuke followed Xiao Xiao's line of sight and saw an ordinary locust tree.
The tree is tall, and although the leaves look lush, they are already stained with a layer of withered yellow. Maybe it won't be long before the ground will be covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves.
"Huh?"
Xiao Xiao responded and turned his head slightly to look at Chi Xiuke, with a slight question between his eyebrows.
"What are you looking at?"
Chi Xiuke's eyes suddenly lit up as if he thought of something.
She tried to open her eyes wide and carefully look at the locust tree that caught Master Xiao's attention, but, like every time before, she found nothing.
She wasn't depressed either, she was used to it anyway.
"Master Xiao, did you discover something?"
Chi Xiuke's eyes brightened even more, looking at Xiao Xiao expectantly.
Hearing this, Chi Xiuchuan and the annoyed Meng Jixi both looked at Xiao Xiao.
"Master Xiao, do you know who lost the fruit?"
Chi Xiuchuan pinched the fruit in his hand and held it up to Xiao Xiao to show him.
Upon closer inspection, I discovered that the green fruit was somewhat shriveled, revealing a bit of dark brown color.
"This should be the pod of the locust tree. The bastard who smashed me...was it on that tree?"
Meng Jixi's brows raised, a cold light suddenly appeared, and the sharp eye knife swept towards the locust tree that Xiao Xiao had focused on just now.
But even if he walked under the tree and looked left and right, he still didn't see anything.
When he was smashed before, he could probably tell where the culprit was based on the fruits he smashed down, but every time he went to arrest someone with confidence, he ended up in vain.
He even climbed a tree to look for it regardless of appearance, and even did the stupid thing of staying at the place where it was smashed for several hours.
He was also so angry that he lost his mind.
Because no one has ever fooled him like this!
If you have any dissatisfaction with him, just say it directly to his face. What's the point of carrying out sneak attacks like this secretly and from time to time?
He despises this kind of villain who "hides his head but shows his tail" the most.
But he was still helpless.
During this period, he was like a moving powder keg, ready to explode at any moment.
Therefore, when he saw the Chi brothers and sisters bringing Master Xiao, he was not too angry. Now, he just wanted to catch that bold and shameless bastard, and then give him a good beating!
……
"嘤嘤~"
A clear and childish cry rang out, and then a fruit hit Meng Jixi's head impartially. "Dong~", a rather dull sound.
Xiao Xiao felt that he could see Meng Jixi's anger burst out, almost materializing.
"Uh, Ah Xi, please get out of the tree first."
Chi Xiuchuan looked at Meng Jixi, whose eyes were darkening, with some shame. As he spoke, he subconsciously looked up. The branches on the top were crisscrossed, but they were not dense enough to hide a person without being discovered by the people below, so he said , how did this fruit hit A Xi’s head?
"Poof~"
Chi Xiuke endured it, and even though she quickly covered her mouth, she still let out a few laughs. Her shoulders were shaking, and she quickly turned her back.
Brother Jixi had always looked domineering, but she had never seen him look like this with rage but helplessness.
How could she break the point of laughter when she was hit for no apparent reason?
"Xiuxiu!"
Meng Jixi looked at Chi Xiuke, who had her back turned to him, and felt confused about whether to laugh or cry.
Does this girl think he wouldn't know she was smiling if she turned her back?
Besides, the twitching ears on the rabbit backpack behind her had already given her away.
"Sorry, brother Jixi, I don't want to laugh."
Chi Xiuke took a few deep breaths, then turned around and said with a straight face, but the corners of her mouth rose uncontrollably the moment she saw Meng Jixi.
Meng Jixi was a little helpless. He definitely didn't have a good face when others dared to laugh at him like this.
But facing Chi Xiuke, whom he had always loved as his younger sister, he didn't know what else to do except smile bitterly.
Chi Xiuke is still very conscientious. Although brother Jixi looks funny now, the problems that need to be solved still need to be solved.
"Master Xiao, have you discovered the culprit who hit Brother Jixi?"
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao didn't hide it and admitted it outright.
Not to mention the Chi brothers and sisters, Meng Jixi was also vaguely aware of his abnormality. He would not tell them anything about his ability to see monsters, but he would not hide it too deliberately.
In fact, even if he behaves abnormally, most people would probably be more inclined to think that he might be mentally disturbed than to think that he has special abilities, right?
It's rare for these people that even Meng Jixi, who was suspicious of him at first, didn't think he was faking it.
Maybe it's because of several previous incidents.
However, this is also a kind of fate between them, isn't it?
……
"Really?"
Meng Jixi calmed down a bit of his anger and raised his eyebrows suspiciously.
Before Xiao Xiao could speak, Chi Xiuke couldn't wait to speak, "Of course it's true!"
She has never doubted Master Xiao's ability.
Chi Xiuchuan's slightly raised eyebrows also relaxed. Now that Master Xiao has found the prisoner, the matter has been solved.
Meng Jixi was speechless for these two "die-hard fans" of Master Xiao. He decisively skipped the topic, looked at Xiao Xiao and asked, "Where is that bastard?"
His eyes were fixed on Xiao Xiao for a moment, not missing any change of expression on his face.
"In the tree?"
Meng Jixi tried to find some clues on Xiao Xiao's face.
Xiao Xiao calmly accepted Meng Jixi's X-ray gaze, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and his gaze turned to the white figure among the branches, "Who knows?"
