Chapter 062 "Canglong, you have one more crime."
Glancing at the thin, white, almost powerless leg still resting on him, Wen Jiyu stretched out his hand, passed under the other's thigh, and his fingertips immediately touched the soft flesh on He Xile's leg.
His face was expressionless as he effortlessly lifted the leg and threw it away.
snort.
How dare you sleep with your legs on him?
This human is really brave.
Wen Ji was unhappy, and when he got out of bed, he couldn't help twisting his fingertips. He always felt that the touch and temperature of human skin were still on them, which made him feel a little weird.
He turned around and glanced at He Xile, who was not woken up.
Why do I feel this way?
...Is it because he has never slept in the same bed with another person before?
Thinking about it this way, last night’s experience was indeed very novel.
Relaxing his frown, Wen Jiyu went to wash up calmly.
But for He Xile, this sleep was very comfortable.
After Wen Jiyu left, another two hours passed before he stretched out and woke up slowly. When he realized that his sleeping posture seemed very unruly, He Xile's heart skipped a beat and he turned his head to look to the side in an instant.
——There is no one here.
Fortunately, fortunately.
Wen Ji and His Majesty have already stood up and left.
Last night...
Probably, maybe, nothing happened, right?
He Xile thought that considering the other party's temper, it should be fine: If He Xile really did something he shouldn't have done, he would probably be woken up by His Majesty on the spot and scolded.
He heaved a sigh of relief and climbed out of bed in a good mood.
Halfway up the mountain, he realized something was wrong.
etc.
He seems to have become smaller???
He Xile jumped up from the bed almost instantly and stood on the carpet.
Everything around him, such as the bed and the cabinets beside him, seemed to be one size larger than He Xile's. His clothes also didn't fit him. The hems of his clothes, which originally only reached his thighs, now covered his knees...
Like wearing a skirt.
He Xile reached back and touched.
Equally empty.
Ahhhhh.
Damn it!
The big, fragrant, soft, and fluffy tail he had just washed last night was gone! He Xile had drunk some wine last night and was extremely sleepy, so he had been planning to stroke his tail today.
Who would have thought that when I woke up this morning, my tail was gone!
It's like a bolt from the blue!
but……
He Xile was a little confused.
Wen Jiyu recognized him as a human at first sight. Logically, after Canglong escaped, he should have immediately retracted his ability and allowed He Xile to transform back, but he didn't...
——Won’t changing He Xile’s image cause damage to Canglong’s mental strength?
Why do we have to maintain it?
Could it be that he wanted to make Wen Jiyu doubt that he had admitted his mistake?
Shouldn't.
He Xile couldn't figure it out.
He simply stopped thinking about it.
After putting on his shoes, He Xile walked to the bathroom, looked at the overly high washbasin, looked around, brought a low stool, stood on it to wash his face and brush his teeth. After he finished washing with great effort and came out of the bathroom, he heard someone knocking on the door.
A dull voice came: "Sir He Xile, I am Guard No. 089452. Are you awake?"
"Awake." He Xile answered loudly.
But this time, He Xile did not open the door rashly.
He sent a message to Wen Jiyu: "Did you send the guards to call me?"
Afterwards, He Xile opened the wardrobe and found clothes of his human size inside. He happily changed into them.
Wen Jiyu quickly replied, "Well, don't worry, come out, Canglong has been caught."
That's good.
He Xile quickly opened the door.
At the door, the tall guard looked normal at first and was about to salute when he suddenly realized that there was no one in his sight. He was slightly stunned and then lowered his head to see the shrunken appearance of a real human.
——She was wearing exquisite clothes and looked very small. Her face was much more refined than her ordinary appearance before. Her beautiful glass-like eyes were sparkling, like a human being filled with starlight.
Oh my god.
As expected, humans like this are so cute!
The guard's heart softened, and he couldn't help but lower his voice. "Sir He Xile, His Majesty asked me to take you to the restaurant for breakfast first. After breakfast, we can go see him."
He Xile nodded: "What are you waiting for, let's go."
He Xile also likes to eat breakfast.
He was thinking about Canglong's capture, so he ate very quickly. After a while, he stood up and wiped his mouth with a napkin. The guards saw this and felt amused. They walked in front and took He Xile to the wine cellar.
"Your Majesty is inside." said the guard.
He stood still, obviously not intending to go down.
He Xile nodded: "Thank you."
He Xile had been here before with Wen Ji and His Majesty, so he was familiar with the place. He went down into the wine cellar and just took two steps when he saw Wen Ji and His Majesty appear at the corner.
"come over."
Wen Jiyu said, "There's someone inside."
He Xile trotted over.
Being so close, He Xile felt a little uncomfortable.
——Before, He Xile was more than two meters tall. Even when standing next to Wen Ji and His Majesty, he did not feel any sense of height oppression. He could see His Majesty by just raising his head slightly. But now it is different.
If He Xile wanted to observe His Majesty's appearance again, he had to raise his head again.
Damn it.
My neck hurts a bit.
He Xile once again wailed in his heart, "I wish I were as tall as a basketball star."
He followed Wen Jiyu and turned a corner, where he first saw Joule Cook, still hanging. He was in a coma and showed no reaction to the arrival of Wen Jiyu and He Xile.
He Xile passed by the other person and couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Wen Jiyu suddenly said, "Not dead."
He Xile scratched his head: "Are Canglong and the others like this too?"
Wen Jiyu: "No."
Without even turning his head, he said, "Only those who have secrets will be treated like this."
He Xile suddenly understood.
Soon, the two men walked deep into the wine cellar and found that there was no way forward.
He Xile looked around but did not see Canglong and others.
Is there a secret door?
Looking to the side, Wen Jiyu had already walked over. He squatted down and turned a bottle of wine in the lower cabinet. There was a slight "click" sound, and as expected, the wall at the end was a secret door, revealing the space behind.
Awesome, awesome.
He Xile poked his head in curiously.
It was pitch black inside the door.
The doorway was narrow, and He Xile blocked the entrance. Wen Jiyu stood behind He Xile, almost sticking to his body, stretched out his arm, passed over his head, and knocked on the wall casually.
The lights inside came on immediately.
He Xile: "Wow."
There was a square space inside, and the other three sides were similar to prisons, with vertical high-tech materials enclosing a rectangular area of less than a few square meters.
These three rooms are just right for Sister Canglong Snake and the driver, one each.
He Xile: “…”
Tears behind iron bars?
Hearing the noise here, the three of them subconsciously looked over, and when their eyes met He Xile, they paused slightly.
No one begged for mercy.
He Xile turned around and asked softly, "Your Majesty, what will happen to these three?"
"Summarize all the crimes they've committed and, according to current laws, determine the corresponding number of years they'll serve," Wen Jiyu said. "Based on the pirates' usual behavior, they're likely unable to escape."
He Xile said "Oh".
Canglong and others' previous act of kidnapping He Xile was equivalent to human trafficking. Although He Xile did not suffer any harm during their relationship and could even be considered harmonious, He Xile would not plead for the other party.
——They should be punished by law.
As for how many years he would be sentenced to, that was not He Xile's business.
Seeing that He Xile did not plead for mercy, Wen Jiyu's lips curled up for a moment.
"Do you know why I brought you here?" he asked.
He Xile looked at His Majesty in confusion.
He shook his head honestly and speculated, "Is it because I never transformed back into a human before? You had clearly figured me out then. Logically, there was no need for Canglong to continue disguising me as a Haixinna."
Wen Jiyu: "No. He didn't change you back because he wanted to kidnap you again."
He Xile: "Hmm???"
He Xile was shocked.
On the side, Canglong sat on the ground with a cold expression. He did not look at Wen Jiyu, but stared at He Xile.
Wen Jiyu scoffed, a hint of mockery in his eyes. "He tied up Chef Wilder last night and disguised himself as him, saying he made some desserts for you. It's a pity he probably never imagined that I'd actually put you in my room."
He Xile was still a little confused.
As soon as he looked over, he immediately met Canglong's gaze and couldn't help asking, "There are guards here, and His Majesty is here too, why did you insist on kidnapping me? Even if you really wanted to buy me again, no one would dare to do so now that the situation is tense."
Canglong's jaw tightened for a moment: "You didn't remember what I said."
He Xile: “?”
He Xile was stunned.
Wen Jiyu frowned: "...What did he say to you?"
He Xile said bewilderedly, "He said he... uh, he was going to sell me to Joule Cook, and then steal me out after the money came in. After that, he wouldn't sell me, but instead planned to make me his teammate."
teammate?
Wen Jiyu asked with great interest, "What do you think?"
He Xile shook his head and said, "This proposal is ridiculous to me. I've never believed it. When he proposed it, he didn't even ask for my opinion. It's obvious from the beginning that he didn't think we were equal. I won't be a teammate of such a person."
He Xile thought to himself, he wasn't a fool. The "teammate" Canglong mentioned was definitely fake. Perhaps he really just treated him as a money bag that could move and eat?
Whenever you're short of money, just contact someone on the spot to sell something...
So terrifying.
"Teammate..."
Wen Ji and re-chew these two words.
His expression gradually turned cold.
The human's small size meant He Xile was inherently inferior to the Hai Xinna people. Both his physical strength and combat power were appallingly low. His only decent mental strength was a mere B-level, which was truly inadequate. If Canglong wanted to find teammates, he could easily find a B-level mentalist by simply offering a bounty on the black market.
Why did he choose He Xile?
He glanced at He Xile beside him, his eyes taking in his delicate face, beautiful pupils, and fair skin... Wen Jiyu recalled the feeling of his fingertips when he had moved He Xile's legs that morning. Such people were indeed very likely to attract a certain type of person.
Oh.
Therefore, Canglong's real purpose is definitely not to find a teammate, but...
Wen Jiyu said calmly, "Canglong, you have one more crime to report. I will report this to the court when the time comes."
