Chapter 026
Cheng Hui had no way to answer the question from the beautiful woman in men's clothing, but fortunately, the other party didn't seem to need an answer.
She raised the corner of her mouth sarcastically: "Don't think you can become a demon hunter just by solving a few trivial matters, boy, you are still very green." After that, she turned and left.
Cheng Hui silently closed the door and immediately began to analyze some of the information she revealed.
Apparently, in this world, strange things like those described in the letters are not uncommon, and even specialized "demon hunters" have emerged.
Secondly, his friend invited him to solve the problem not only because of their friendship, but also because of his identity as a demon hunter.
Secondly, he should be a novice as a demon hunter and has only handled a few cases. And... judging from this woman's attitude, is there something wrong with the cases he handled before?
Combining the above analysis, it feels like this world is a big pit, and Cheng Hui, who was forced to jump into this big pit, suddenly became unhappy.
He called out tentatively, "Light screen?"
No response.
"system?"
This time there was a response, and a transparent screen appeared in front of him again.
The previous task had shrunk to the upper right corner, and the screen was blank. Cheng Hui noticed that his peripheral vision seemed to have caught something.
Cheng Hui: ...
He stared at the corner of the screen with a stern expression: "Xiao Tong? Come out!"
There was no response, but something black seemed to flash by in the corner.
Cheng Hui quickly pressed the screen, and sure enough, he pressed a black tail.
Cheng Hui: ...
No, what is this?
The tail was still twisting left and right as if trying to get rid of his fingers. Since Cheng Hui had caught it, he would not let it escape. He grabbed the tip of the tail and pulled the thing hidden outside the screen frame back.
…emmm……
Seeing Xiao Tong wearing a black cat suit with only his small face exposed, Cheng Hui's mouth twitched. He didn't seem surprised at all...
Black Cat Tong was forcibly pulled out by him. The two looked at each other and then looked away embarrassedly.
Cheng Hui looked at the guilty Black Cat Tong with amusement and whispered, "Xiao Tong? System?"
Xiaotong puffed out his cheeks and nodded reluctantly.
Cheng Hui covered his forehead, wondering if his gold finger painting style was a little off. There were too many mixed styles, right?
System, space, and infinite flow travel? What a mess.
He slowly sat back in his chair, crossed his legs, and tapped his fingertips lightly on the table. The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became stagnant.
Xiao Tong twisted his fingers in confusion, and his long tail swung back and forth anxiously.
"Tell me, what's going on?" Cheng Hui said lightly.
Xiao Tong looked at him pitifully, but this time Cheng Hui acted very cold and ruthless, just looking at him quietly.
Xiaotong: ...
Failed to act coquettishly!
Damn, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to manage hosts these days.
Xiao Tong smacked his lips, and quickly scurried to the upper right corner of the screen as if climbing a wall. He dragged the task font to the center of the screen, and pointed at the line of text to indicate that this was the key point.
"So... this is my mission?" Cheng Hui asked calmly.
Xiao Tong nodded repeatedly.
Cheng Hui looked at him silently, and suddenly asked: "Why don't you speak?"
Xiao Tong blinked, pointed at his mouth and babbled twice, as if he couldn't speak.
Cheng Hui: ...Okay.
"Okay, I'll ask and you answer. Don't hide anything from me. I'm very unhappy now because of your previous deception, so if you lie to me again, be careful or I'll quit," he threatened.
Xiaotong waved his two little hands excitedly, as if to refute that he had not deceived him.
Cheng Hui raised his eyebrows. "Then tell me what this mission is all about. No, answer me first. Can I still go back to my original world?"
"Huh?" Xiao Tong tilted his head and looked at him, as if he didn't understand where his original world was.
Cheng Hui paused: "I mean... the world where I had the car accident."
Xiao Tong blinked his big eyes, looking ignorant.
Cheng Hui: ...Okay, I understand. There’s no going back.
Fortunately, he didn't have any particular concerns in that world. Although his parents were still alive, he had long since considered them dead.
"What about the world of immortal cultivation? Can I go back?"
"Ah!" Xiao Tong nodded, still a little confused as to why he felt he could not return to the world of cultivation.
"So...where is this place?"
Xiao Tong looked at him in confusion, as if he didn't understand why he would ask such a question.
Cheng Hui also realized that this way of asking was too inefficient, and scratched his head in annoyance.
At this moment, a voice suddenly said in his mind: "Ask him what will happen if he doesn't complete the task."
"who!?"
Cheng Hui was startled.
The voice disappeared, but Cheng Hui didn't think he was hallucinating.
"Who are you?"
"I... don't know who I am." The voice finally spoke.
Cheng Hui: ...
Very good. Not only did I travel to a strange world for the second time, but there was also a voice in my head.
I wasn't a spearman in my previous life, was I?
Cheng Hui was extremely wary of the voice that suddenly appeared in his mind, and even wondered if it was his second personality.
But he soon realized that he was overthinking it. He had not been stimulated in any way, so how could he have so many second personalities?
"Then what can you remember?" Cheng Hui still wanted to test who this person was.
The voice in my head was silent for a while, and when it spoke again, its tone became hesitant: "...I...I remember you..."
Cheng Hui's eyes lit up. Could this person give him some clues?
"I remember... you are my fiancé and we have a good relationship."
Cheng Hui: ...

Forgive him, why did he end up with another fiancé?
Wait, why did he say again? Never mind the details.
"You don't even remember who you are, but you remember that I'm your fiancé? Are you kidding me?" Cheng Hui suspected that this person was playing a trick on him.
The voice was silent for a moment, and then replied in a very firm tone: "No, you are my fiancé, and we are still in a good relationship."
Cheng Hui: ...
I'm afraid of you. Do I have any inextricable connection with the word "fiancé"?
"What else can you think of besides your fiancé?"
The voice replied, "No, I can't think of anything except that you are my fiancé."
Cheng Hui thought, come on, this is my fault.
But what could he do? He couldn't get the person out of his mind!
He looked at the confused Black Cat Tong and poked his belly with his finger, which made him fall over several times. When he got up, he was still confused. After he came to his senses, he started to attack him, mumbling non-stop, and it was unclear whether he was scolding him.
Cheng Hui chuckled, amused by him.
This little system is really fun.
"Xiao Tong, there is someone talking in my mind now. Can you pull him out of my mind?" he asked.
Xiao Tong looked at him in confusion, as if he didn't understand what he was saying.
"Huh?" Cheng Hui was stunned. He wouldn't be surprised if Xiaotong couldn't do it, but Xiaotong's reaction seemed a little wrong. If he couldn't do it, he should have given a negative answer instead of looking confused like he did now.
"Can't you sense that there's someone else on my mind?"
"Yeah!" Xiao Tong nodded.
Cheng Hui's expression suddenly became much more serious. He had always thought that Xiao Tong's ability should be very impressive. Now if even the system couldn't find the person hiding in his mind, then he... wouldn't bother.
He is a very capable person. If he can't do something, he can't do it. There are hidden dangers, but just because they can't be solved now doesn't mean they can't be solved in the future. When he becomes stronger in the future, he may be able to drive people out easily.
Let’s focus on the present for now.
"Okay, since I can't get you out of my mind, let's just live in peace for the time being." Cheng Hui decided to find common ground with the voice for the time being.
To put it bluntly, if you can't win, you have no choice but to admit defeat.
Besides, this voice only appeared after he came to this world. Maybe it will disappear after he completes his mission and returns!
He even suspected that his own system had accidentally abducted someone else when he traveled through time. Considering Xiao Tong's unreliable appearance, it was not impossible.
The voice heard what he said and retorted unhappily: "I'm not old! I'm not an old man!"
Cheng Hui almost spit out his anger. Is this the point?
To be honest, this person's voice is quite pleasant, with the kind of crisp sound of "big and small pearls falling on a jade plate". To describe it in simple terms, it is so pleasant that it can make the ears pregnant.
Such a voice certainly would not belong to an old man. Cheng Hui was just joking, but he didn't expect that this man would take it seriously and refute it so seriously.
"Okay, okay, you are not old, you are still young." Cheng Hui coaxed without any sincerity.
The voice seemed a little unhappy: "You shouldn't say that to your fiancé. We...we are going to get married in the future. You have to love me and take care of me." Later, it seemed a little shy and its voice became much softer.
Cheng Hui: ...emmmm, alright, as long as you're happy. ╮(￣▽￣\")╭
"Then...what do you want to call this fiancé?"
"Aqiu, I like the way you call me Aqiu." said the voice.
"Okay, Qiu, you see, we may be inseparable for the time being..." Cheng Hui didn't think much about it and just called him that.
"It's okay, I'm just happy to be with you."
This A Qiu quickly showed the awareness of being a fiancé, and Cheng Hui's mouth twitched when he heard it.
I feel like he might have a lot in common with Lin Qingyang.
But...if the two fiancés really meet, there will be a Shura scene, right?
Cheng Hui imagined the scene of a young man and a boy meeting each other... He couldn't help but shudder, and it was scary just to imagine it.
"Um... Ah Qiu, please wait a moment. I need to talk to my little Tong first... By the way, can you see what I see and hear what I hear?"
"Well, don't worry, I won't say anything nonsense." Aqiu promised.
Cheng Hui thought, you have already lived in my mind, and there is nothing I can do to you. Even if you say something nonsense, what can I do to you?
Besides, I am the only one who can hear you talking now. Even if you want to say something, who can you tell?
Of course, this attitude from the other party is still good. After all, they still have to cooperate, so it would be better if the atmosphere was more harmonious.
