I’m Being Held Captive by Demons - Chapter 16
[Chapter 16 The first fetal movement]
The class leader Zhang Rong sent to inform the county magistrate who came back soon.
The county magistrate did not come.
But this is normal. After all, it’s not yet dawn. Who knows if there is only one monster?
It is normal for the magistrate to be cautious.
Even the fast catchers in the yamen did not dare to relax.
After hanging the ghost baby’s body next to the Soul Eater, everyone went to sleep in batches.
Half of them slept, and half of them continued to be awake and alert. Only after one rotation did the sky light up completely.
Soon, the county magistrate in official uniform came in a sedan chair.
The early morning sun fell on Shanlan County Yali, and the county magistrate nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the two monster corpses hanging in the yard.
“Okay! Okay! Killing two monsters in a row, everyone present has made a great contribution!”
The county magistrate was very excited when he saw the corpses of the two monsters, and immediately called Zhang Rong, the head of the class, to select the manpower and prepare to send the corpses of the two monsters to Hejianfu City tomorrow.
Kong Ning, on the other hand, was temporarily the foreman during Zhang Rong’s absence.
——That is to say, but everyone knows that the job of the fast squad leader is already in Kong Ning’s pocket.
After all, although the county magistrate has a lot of problems, he has not regretted what he said in public.
Not to mention that Zhang Rong, the class leader, wanted to go to Fucheng for a long time, it is not a secret…
Soon, after the merits and deeds were rewarded, everyone dispersed one after another.
Zhang Rong and Kong Ning were called by the county magistrate to the back hall to explain. When the two came out, Zhang Rong smiled and couldn’t help congratulating Kong Ning.
Kong Ning also smiled and congratulated the other party.
Because Zhang Rong went to Hejian Mansion this time, he probably won’t come back.
This middle-aged man who followed the county magistrate to Shanlan County was a close associate of the magistrate and had been in Shanlan County for fifteen years.
Since the year before last, Zhang Rong has been moving around, wanting to return to the city.
Kong Ning was recruited into the yamen by Zhang Rong at that time. Now that I think about it, it is probably that Zhang Rong helped the county magistrate to find a suitable henchman before leaving, so that the county magistrate could continue to take charge of the fast class.
This time, the Shanlan county government killed two demons, and Kong Ning also took the initiative to deny his credit, willing to hide his existence, and gave Zhang Rong the main credit for killing demons and eliminating demons.
With the corpses of these two monsters, and Zhang Rong’s movements in the past few years, it was a sure thing for Zhang Rong to stay in Hejian Mansion this time.
As long as Zhang Rong is sure not to come back, then Kong Ning can immediately take office and take up the position of the head of the fast squad.
This is something that everyone benefits and is happy about.
If it was before, Kong Ning would definitely be happy for the position of the head catcher.
But at this time, he only felt a deep sense of exhaustion.
Performing the dreaming technique last night and fighting monsters in nightmares took too much toll on the spirit.
Although he slept in the second half of the night and was not on duty, he still did not get enough sleep.
After riding a jujube yellow horse and leaving the yamen, Kong Ning did not stop and went straight to Huaishu Alley.
In the early morning sun, the huge locust tree in front of the house stretched its branches and leaves in the morning breeze.
Father and mother, as always, sat under the locust tree to enjoy the coolness.
Seeing Kong Ning come back, a kind smile appeared on the mother’s face.
After saying hello to the second old man, Kong Ning led Zaohuang Ma into the hospital.
After tying the jujube yellow horse, he went straight to the side house and fell asleep.
Even the monster at home hasn’t come back, Kong Ning has no time to pay attention.
That demon girl didn’t know where she went last night… but Kong Ning didn’t have the right to care about it.
The moment his head touched the pillow, Kong Ning fell asleep.
In the haze, Kong Ning seemed to see some blurry pictures flashing continuously, and saw some memory fragments of the nightmare ghost.
It’s just that those memory pictures are fragmented and vague, almost all vague fragments of cannibalism, which cannot leave a deep impression in Kong Ning’s heart.
Finally, Kong Ning woke up.
In the sky outside the house, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the clouds red.
After sleeping all day, he only felt his head dizzy and his stomach rumbling with hunger.
After shaking and turning over and sitting up, it took half a minute for Kong Ning’s consciousness to gradually wake up.
The feeling of dizziness in the head gradually receded, and the noise in the yard became clear.
Putting on a thin coat, Kong Ning walked out of the side room and heard the sound in the kitchen room.
– Someone was cooking in it.
The sizzling sound of the food tumbling in the hot oil kept ringing.
The seductive fragrance wafted along the cool night wind, making Kong Ning’s stomach even more hungry.
He rubbed his eyes and walked to the door of the kitchen. What he saw was a beautiful girl with hair tied into a woman’s bun and wearing a blue dress, busy in front of the stove.
Seeing Kong Ning at the door, the girl in green clothes showed a gentle smile and said, “Husband, are you awake?”
A soft and melodious call, full of infinite affectionate care.
Kong Ning at the door was slightly startled, and then, there was a sharp contraction in his lower abdomen.
Couldn’t help frowning.
Seeing Kong Ning’s reaction, the woman in Tsing Yi showed a delighted smile.
“There is fetal movement so soon… Husband! You and our child are very compatible! The demon egg has only been in for two days, and it has been combined so well. It’s amazing!”
“As expected of the man Yan’er liked… Husband, go sit and rest, don’t be exhausted. Yan’er will be ready soon, let’s have dinner now. UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com”
The woman in Tsing Yi smiled and pushed Kong Ning out of the kitchen with concern.
Kong Ning, who was wearing a thin coat, stood in the yard, staring blankly at the big locust tree swaying in the night wind above his head. Hearing the brisk humming of the woman behind him, he felt at a loss.
This sleep was too sleepy.
If it weren’t for the sudden colic in his stomach and what the woman in Tsing Yi said, he would have almost forgotten that the lady at home was a monster…
Dragging his tired body, Kong Ning came to the door.
Standing under the setting sun, he saw his parents enjoying the cool under the locust tree at the door.
Father, who always flipped through his old yellowish book, rarely put it down.
Because of a guest.
Under the big locust tree, sat a gloomy strong man.
When Kong Ning came, the other party was complaining to Kong Ning’s parents angrily.
“…That thing is too deceiving! I want her to die!”
Kong Ning’s sudden appearance made all the three people sitting under the big locust tree turn their heads.
Kong Ning saw a dark scar on the left face of the angry strong man, making half of his face rotten and slightly hideous.
And this injury seems to have been left only recently…
Seeing Kong Ning appear, the strong man who was complaining in anger froze, then got up and walked away.
Before leaving, he glared at Kong Ning angrily.
“I don’t care! Fuck the rules!”
The angry strong man walked away.
The parents under the locust tree watched the strong man leave, their expressions were calm and unreserved.
Kong Ning looked at the back of the strong man leaving in amazement, a little confused.
This guy… who is it?
In the small Shanlan County, are there people he doesn’t know?
