Chapter 377 Secret Shadow

Recalling the shop she had just seen on the shopping street, Mingzhu slept shallowly in the room of this strange hotel. She had a very shallow dream in which she was chasing a figure of a man in black. She couldn't see his face clearly, because the man wore a very strange clown mask on his face.

Bang bang bang.

There was a knock on the door, which was not loud but urgent. She was surprised from her dream. First, she subconsciously looked around, and then recalled that she was already in the demon world at this moment.

She shook her head and tried to wake up. Then she went to the door and whispered, "Who?"

"It's me, Xiaohua!" The voice of the cat demon girl came from outside the door.

Ran Mingzhu opened the door as soon as she heard it. She and the cat demon girl looked at each other tacitly and smiled. But her smile was still frozen on her face, and she remembered that she had forgotten to cover her face with a hat. Now her appearance was completely reflected in the eyes of the cat demon girl.

"You are..." The word human did not pop out of the cat demon girl's mouth. She covered her mouth so as not to make a loud noise because she was too surprised. Then she waved to Ran Mingzhu and said, "Come with me!"

Ran Mingzhu followed her down from the third floor. There was indeed no hotel owner at the counter, and I don't know when all the guests in the lobby dispersed. At this time, only a few small lights were left, and the whole hotel seemed to be asleep.

The two of them came to the backyard smoothly, and the warehouse she dreamed of entering finally appeared in front of her.

"Thank you very much!" However, Mingzhu nodded to the cat demon girl.

"The boss should not come to the counter within two or three hours from now, but you should also hurry up. He is often nervous!" The cat demon girl said playfully, then took out the key from her waist pocket and opened the lock on the warehouse door.

Ran Mingzhu walked into the warehouse, and the cat demon girl did not follow her in, but closed the door again. It could be seen that she didn't want to disturb her. Hearing her footsteps slowly go away, Mingzhu calmed down to light the small light hanging on her waist and look for the entrance of the secret channel.

Because Ouyang Xiao Leng marked the specific location of the entrance and exit of the secret road for Dong Muya after finding the secret road, she also remembered them for a long time, and naturally it was easy to find the movable floor at the entrance.

She pushed the floor and jumped into the secret channel. In the narrow space, the small lamp hanging around her waist looked brighter. She went all the way down and walked for a while before entering the main body of the flat secret passage.

The four walls of the secret road are made of stone. The air inside is a little thin, and it is still a little damp. Occasionally, drops of water drip down, and you can faintly smell some strange smells, like rusty metal. It is so quiet here that the echo effect is so good that the sound of water droplets, breathing and footsteps are infinitely amplified.

Walking alone in such a place, it seems impossible not to be afraid, but the excitement and expectation in Mingzhu's heart drive the fear away from her heart. She felt that everything was going too smoothly, which seemed to be a sign that she was destined to reunite with her father and take him back to her home in Japan.

From the moment she can remember, when her mother woke up, she never saw her smile. Her mother only occasionally showed a faint smile in her dreams. When she grew up, she guessed that it must be because she dreamed of spending time with her father.

Just opposite her, suddenly another light source flashed by. She thought it was just her own illusion, but soon she found that the light source was indeed there. The other party may have panicked about her appearance and paused for a while before starting to retreat quickly.

Ran Mingzhu took out a charm from her pocket and shouted, "Who are you?"

In the secret channel, her voice is constantly echoing, which also makes her bolder. If you use spells here, the power will definitely increase a lot.

But the man did not answer her questions or want to stop, but fled in the opposite direction faster.

"Who are you?! Stop it for me!!! Otherwise, I won't be polite!!!" However, Mingzhu didn't know where the courage came from. She silently chanted the spell and turned into a waiter in the form of a big dog.

The big dog ran along the secret road, chasing the light source in front of him, and the owner of the light source stopped running after seeing the big dog, but stopped.

He suddenly raised his hand. He didn't know what spell he had used. In an instant, the waiter of Ran Mingzhu began to ignite spontaneously, and finally turned into the spell just now, but the edge of the spell had been burned. As soon as he shook his head on his body, the one he carried extinguished and disappeared in the dark.

In the secret road, only Ran Mingzhu's footsteps were left alone, but she did not want to give up, but continued to move forward. She came to the place where the big dog waiter had just been lit. Next to her broken charm, she was surprised to find another charm.

The man just used not a demon spell just now, but the same charm as her. Only the demon catcher knows how to use it, and although the spell is also broken, the pattern drawn on it is still faintly distinguishable.

"Father!" However, the pearl blurted out.

She was convinced that this charm came from her father, who could draw the charm so accurately except him? My mother has long said that although my father's talent and ability are not the strongest among demon hunters, he can definitely give full play to the knowledge he has mastered. His efforts and rigor are beyond anyone. She picked up the charm. After carefully collecting it, she continued to speed up and went all the way to the exit at the other end of the secret road.

After finding the organ and opening the exit, she came out of the secret channel. But only the bright moon in the purple sky greeted her, and the figure she had been waiting for for a long time did not appear.

This should be outside the royal city, full of bushes and huge rocks, but her mood is more desolate than this scenery. She stood still, spinning around, only feeling dizzy and didn't know where to go.

If I had realized earlier that the man in black was most likely to be his father and shouted his name, I might have been able to keep him. But all this can only be if, the figure that may be the father has already disappeared. She unconsciously touched her pocket and was sure that the charm was still there. It was a proof that everything just happened, not just her hallucination.

Father, he must still be somewhere.

Ran Mingzhu returned to the secret road and returned to the Sparrow Hotel along the original road. Her whole heart felt empty. What she didn't expect was that the cat demon girl was waiting for her outside the old warehouse.

Seeing her, the girl showed a surprised face and said, "Thank God, I came to you in the old warehouse when I saw that you hadn't come out, but you weren't there. I was worried if something happened to you."

At this time, she saw the pure face of the cat demon girl Yu Xiaohua, which made Ran Mingzhu feel very kind. She hugged the girl and cried.

The cat demon girl patted her on the shoulder, took her arm and took her back to the hotel, and then led her into a small basement in the hotel. There is only a small light in the basement. Although the space is small, it is very warm. In addition to a high and low bed, there is also a small table and a small chair.

She let Ran Mingzhu sit on the lower bunk, and then lightly pedaled the ladder and patted the person who was sleeping with his head covered in the upper bunk. A pair of cats exactly like her came out of the quilt. With the light, Mingzhu saw that it was a very cute cat demon boy. The freckles on his face were particularly adorable. His round and big eyes were very similar to Yu Xiaohua.

"Sister, why did you wake me up?" The cat demon boy complained, and then suddenly realized that there were other people coming into the room. He pointed to Ran Mingzhu and shouted, "She...who is she?"

"It's my friend, don't worry so much! Go to the kitchen to make a cup of milk tea, and use the tea we brought from Miancheng. When the cat demon girl talked to her brother, her tone became harsh.

"Yes!" The cat demon boy was surprisingly obedient. He jumped from the top of the shop to the ground in a very light posture, rubbed his still some eyes, and walked out of the room.

After a while, a fragrance came from outside the door, and then the boy came in with a cup of hot milk tea. Seeing that his sister pointed to the girl who came with her, he nodded and handed her the milk tea.

"Drink it! If you drink it, you will feel better!" The cat demon girl smiled and said to Ran Mingzhu.

Ran Mingzhu took a sip of the warm cup. She has never drunk such a sweet and delicious milk tea. Whether it is the taste of tea or the concentration of milk, it is just right. The proportion of blending must be very exquisite, or it is absolutely impossible to make such a delicious milk tea.

She realized that the cat demon girl and her brother were just staring at herself enjoying sweet milk tea, but did not make a cup of the same for herself, so she asked, "Why don't you drink it?"

"Because milk is needed, if you take too much, it will be found by the boss." The cat demon girl explained.

"I'll buy it for you!" However, Mingzhu blurted out and was about to pay.

The cat demon girl shook her head and said, "Although we are poor, we are definitely not beggars. We stayed in this hotel to have a place to stay and find our lifesaver."

Only then did Mingzhu understand why the cat demon girl refused to collect her money before, so she said to her, "Friends can also give gifts. If there are good things, they will share them together. This is not out of my pity for you. Although it's the first time we meet, I don't know why you have an indescribable sense of intimacy.

"I'm sorry, we came from Miancheng. We don't know these truths very well, and we misunderstood your kindness!" The cat girl said sorryly.

"Don't call me you... Just call me Mingzhu. Mingzhu is my name!"
