Vol 2 Chapter 67: Dead cat

　　 Although the early morning fog has cleared, the air in late summer is still very humid.
The sun did not come out, and the air naturally showed a little chill.
Zheng Qing walked in a somewhat empty campus, tightening the robes on his body, quite uncomfortable.
In the woods where there are crowds between classes on weekdays, now there are only three cats and dogs—real cats and dogs—wandering for a morning exercise. On the deciduous plane trees on both sides of the road, the birds have squinted their eyes and are preparing for a lunch break.
And the real masters of this campus, the students, are probably still in the bed for a cordial and friendly meeting with Zhou Gong.
Zheng Qingxin walked sadly on this empty campus, and really felt that there was no essential difference between a wizard and Bai Ding.
But when he approached Linzhong Lake, he found a different situation from other places.
A large number of people were piled up in black and heavy by the rockery by the lake, lively but strangely quiet.
He remembered Xiao Xiao's exhortation before he left, and walked a few steps before coming out of the crowd.
"What's going on?" He grabbed a Jamaican with a small dirty braid outside and asked: "Why is it so lively? Does it have anything to do with the fireworks on Linzhong Lake last night?"
"Fireworks?" The Jamaican raised his eyebrows, looked him up and down, and his face was a little surprised: "I'm a freshman."
Zheng Qing only noticed a black border on the robe of the student in front of him.
"Good senior." He lost a smile a little nervously, and peeked his head curiously into the crowd: "Did someone fall into the lake?"
"The breath of death." The senior shook his head, his tone was rather solemn: "It's a kitten, which has been mutilated."
Zheng Qing frowned, feeling a little strange.
For wizards, small animals with aura have always been very popular.
A wizard can have no wizard friends, but there must be pet friends.
As for cats and foxes and other small animals with abnormal spirituality, wizards have many taboos. They would rather stand and respect them, or even avoid them after encountering them, than wantonly harm them.
Therefore, no matter from which point of view, a cat dying on campus is not a good thing for wizards.
"The cat's body is inside?" He stood on tiptoe and tried to raise his sight, but unfortunately, the effect was extremely limited: "Why didn't the school take it away?"
"I also find it strange, although the school working committee is closed on Saturdays and Sundays." The senior scratched his head helplessly: "But it shouldn't be the reason why they didn't clean up the corpse. It stands to reason that they should have found out last night. This murder... You just mentioned the'fireworks' last night. It was a signal used by the Wizard Patrol to communicate. This means that the patrol should have discovered the dead body last night."
Zheng Qing nodded silently, then raised his head in horror.
"The murder last night?" He exclaimed, pointing to Linzhong Lake, and exclaiming: "On this lake?"
Perhaps because the senior felt that Zheng Qing was a little fussy, he simply nodded and immediately left the crowd and walked to the library.
But Zheng Qing didn't feel any fuss at all.
He will come to Zhonghu to patrol in the middle of the night next week, and he will die in his own jurisdiction before he takes office. This is completely irresponsible!
And it's the kind that will definitely go wrong.
With a bit of worry, he has been wandering around, inquiring.
Onlookers also have different opinions on the cause of the kitten's death.
Some people say that the kitten was dragged down the lake by the water ghost, and then the cub of the murloc eyeballs. But this claim was immediately denied.
"The whole cat is dry! And, if the water ghost drags it down the lake, why put it back on the shore? This is unreasonable." The retort analyzed very systematically: "In my opinion, it should be a wild monster. The little monsters that ran out of the garden, on this campus, only the beasts can do the things that beasts do."
"The monsters in the Wild Demon Garden didn't have the courage to approach Linzhong Lake." Someone in the crowd denied this speculation: "Moreover, how could those wild demon without wisdom kill this kitten so lightly? Reasonable, dead. How many corpses are there in the creatures under the claws of the wild demon?"
The onlookers nodded in response.
"Perhaps it is a wild monster who likes to eat eyeballs." The former analyst was rather unconvinced: "Otherwise, who needs better reasoning?"
The crowd fell silent again.
"Why can't you be a wizard?" Zheng Qing finally seized the opportunity and looked at others in amazement: "This kind of very organized killing looks like a wizard's hands?"
This sentence seemed to touch some taboo. Everyone looked at him with a strange look, as if he was the murderer of the kitten.
Before he could say anything, the onlookers dispersed.
The evasive glances before they left made Zheng Qing furious.
"What do you mean!" He was angrily: "I didn't kill it...what kind of attitude is this!"
But no one paid attention to him.
When people went to the ground, Zheng Qing finally got to the rockery and saw the killed kitten.
It was a white kitten with short hair, lying on the rockery with its paws, as if asleep.
If its two eye sockets were not so black holes, Zheng Qing might really think it was just asleep.
"It's cruel." In a blink of an eye, he forgot the other onlookers, and his heart was a little heavy: "It's so cute...it's too shameful."
A few fluffy tree sperm slid along the branches of the weeping willow to the front of the rockery, poking their heads, curiously looking at the young wizard standing by the lake and the little milk cat crawling on the stone.
An intestinal boy crawled out of the lake, spitting bubbles, and climbed higher on the rockery. It holds a purple shrimp in its tongs. If on weekdays, Zheng Qing would definitely grab food and carefully study why there are purple shrimps~EbookFREE.me~ but now.
Zheng Qing glanced at the little white cat again, sighed, and walked towards the library door.
This sudden accident seriously affected his mood today.
...
Zheng Qing did not wait long at the entrance of the library.
Jiang Yu came to the appointment early at 8:50.
"You came really early." Jiang Yu trot over, akimbo, tilting his head, fanning with one hand in his ear.
The light scent drifted into Zheng Qing's nasal cavity along the little wind, making his mind float.
"It's not nine o'clock yet." She looked at Zheng Qing with a smile, holding a small bag on her waist and her wrist.
Zheng Qing found for the first time that this female squad leader laughed very comfortably.
This made his depressed mood a little better.
"You're pretty early too." Zheng Qing took out his pocket watch from his arms, looked at the time, and smiled: "It's less than nine o'clock now. You are a girl, and you can stay half an hour late... This is a girl's privilege. "
"This is discrimination against girls." Jiang Yu smiled and looked at him seriously: "Any act that treats men and women differently is discrimination."
Zheng Qing raised his hands begging for mercy, expressing his complete agreement.
