Chapter 774 Healing Xiaolin
"Think about it carefully, Xiaolin." Darkness said, "That immortal doesn't have the same thinking ability as Wiz. Do you think he can come up with the formula?"
"This isn't a skill that only low-level undead can possess." Aqua nodded seriously and said, "At least it should be a small shrimp like Wiz."
Only the stupid goddess would dare to say this about Wiz, a cadre of the Demon King's army and a former fighting witch.
But it also shows from the side that she is an expert in this field.
Darkness asked, "Aqua, do you know what type of undead there were a few days ago? How about Vizbi?"
"The lowest of the low, a super low-level undead without a physical body." Aqua looked down on the undead that she had purified. Even Wiz called them small fry. It seemed that the undead was really not that good.
Huihui asked curiously, "What are you talking about? Isn't it a physical entity? Haven't we controlled it?"
“That’s just a container, a puppet.” Aqua said disdainfully, “The entity of that guy is just an undead attached to a puppet. The real entity must be the same level as Wiz. Of course, even Wiz can be easily purified.”
"Yes, I know you are very good."
"of course."
Xiaolin rolled his eyes in annoyance at the guy who got flattered by a casual compliment.
Darkness continued, "I'm afraid that night, the criminal dressed the doll with the undead attached to it and put the formula in its pocket."
“Then, bring it to Wiz’s magic tool shop and set it free…”
"It will automatically approach Aqua, right?"
Youyou and Huihui continued the conversation.
“Yeah.” Darkness nodded and said, “They probably didn’t approach us in person because they were afraid we would use a trap. It seems that the mastermind behind this is still very cautious.”
"See! I told you, the person I was in contact with was not an undead! If he was an undead, how could he have deceived the goddess' eyes?" Aqua immediately proved herself. She was very persistent about whether she had a reaction to the undead, which made people roll their eyes.
Even if this is the case, Aqua has indeed not met the undead, and the client is not an undead, so another question arises.
Megumin said, “If this speculation is correct, the criminal knew Aqua’s physique, so he acted this way, right?”
"Yeah, quite cunning." Youyou nodded and said, "It seems that the normal method may not work."
Whenever he feels there is danger, he sends his little brothers to take action. This man behind the scenes is really annoying and it is impossible to catch him at all.
"But our goal is back to catching the criminal."
"Yes, although the opponent is much more cunning than expected, we can only find a way to deal with it."
Xiao Lin scratched his head and said helplessly.
“It doesn’t matter!” Huihui said confidently, “Xiaolin won’t lose if he tries to be clever!”
"Wait a moment, I've said it many times, being clever is not a compliment..."
Xiao Lin felt even more helpless.
Although the goal was to catch the criminal, and this was more convenient and easier for Xiaolin and his team to understand, there was still a very important question that they had not figured out until now. That was -
"Why did the prisoner ask us to make clothes? What was his purpose?"
They even used this method, instead of asking or purchasing the clothes, to hand them over to the nobles, and then take the risk to steal them. It is really hard to understand the purpose of the mastermind behind this.
Huihui guessed, “Could it be that he is a clothes fanatic like the nobles?”
"Or maybe he wants to sell the clothes and make a lot of money or something like that?" Aqua's guess is honestly more reliable.
"It would be nice if it were this way..."
"long?"
Seeing Youyou's worried expression, the others felt very strange and didn't know why she said that. But the most urgent thing was not to think about the reason why the mastermind stole the clothes, but how to catch him.
"what……"
Hui Hui exhaled deeply and fell onto the sofa tiredly: “Speaking of which, knowing so much information at once is really tiring.”
"Meow~~~"
A kitten licked her fingers.
"Ah, Mame-nosuke." Huihui scratched its chin and said with a smile: "Welcome back, did you go for a walk?"
"Meow."
Zunosuke meowed, then jumped into Huihui's arms and nudged her.
"Ah... Mamonosuke's body temperature really heals people."
"What, you want to be cured? Then you can tell me anything."
After Huihui said this subconsciously, Xiaolin suddenly spoke up, and Huihui didn't know what to do for a moment. But she still thought about it seriously, and said lazily and sloppily: "Then, in order to get healed, please buy me some sweets. Of course, Xiaolin will treat you."
"I understand. Let's go now." Xiaolin nodded.
"Kobayashi, buy me one too!" Aqua shouted at this time.
"I reject!"
"Why!"
The stupid goddess who was rejected flatly complained unhappily. However, it was not because Xiaolin was unhappy with her or anything, but because the curse meant that only people other than Aqua could be healed by him.
"Then I'll go and come back."
"Bon Voyage."
Huihui waved her hand casually, and Xiaolin quickly walked out of the mansion.
When only the girls were left in the team, Megumin looked at the stupid goddess who was puffing up her lips and looking unhappy, and said, “Aqua, you really haven’t learned your lesson.”
“Really? It’s so unfair that only Huihui is like this…” Aqua was very unhappy. After all, not only could she not act like a spoiled child, but she was also always being criticized for no reason. It would be strange if she could be happy.
Darkness also sighed and said, "It looks like Xiaolin's curse hasn't been lifted yet."
“I’ve been asking him to heal me since then, but it looks like the curse hasn’t been lifted.” Huihui said helplessly.
This is what is needed to lift the curse, so Huihui had no burden in ordering Kobayashi to do it, but there was no result, which made her feel a little guilty.
Youyou looked at Xiaolin's back as he walked away in the courtyard and said, "Sure enough, the problem is not the heart but the body. However, I have no idea what kind of clothes are the ones that can heal me."
“…About this, maybe the way I asked him to heal me is also problematic.”
"Method? What do you mean?"
Darkness was confused by what Huihui said and didn’t understand why she said that. Could it be that their method of removing the curse was wrong?
"Think about it carefully again."
Megumin reminded everyone, “When Aqua was cursed, she said something. Among them, Darkness has already fulfilled her wish to drink bubble wine, right? I’ve also fulfilled my wish to relax in the mansion—”
"Another wish is... a massage, right?"
Youyou said after thinking for a while.
Huihui nodded and continued, “Thinking of this possibility, I asked him to rub my shoulders, but the curse still didn’t lift…”
"That is to say, he needs to give you a serious massage, is that right?" Youyou said with a look of sudden understanding.
"That's right..."
Hui Hui had a strange expression on her face and said, “But to be honest, there is no sense of healing when Xiao Lin gives me a massage. There is only a sense of crisis.”
“Yes, yes…what he will do…ha…just imagining it, it’s like—hmm!” Darkness blushed and began to twist her body while panting.
Aqua looked at the perverted female knight who was lost in delusion and asked, “I think, why don’t we just ask Darkness directly? She would like this anyway, right? I don’t think Krillin would refuse.”
“Darkness’ words, does that count as healing…?”
The three looked at the shy and perverted female knight.
If I massage her, there will be no healing feeling at all, just a pleasurable feeling.
"If you are so kind..."
"I, I, I can't do it! I can't heal anything. This kind of thing is not okay. So, so——"
Seeing Youyou who is so shy that she can’t speak, if I give her a massage, she will definitely be so excited that she will faint.
Not to mention Aqua.
Kobayashi can heal anyone, except Aqua, because the curse rebounded, making her a complete outsider.
Then a few more days passed.
Kobayashi and his friends worked part-time making clothes while trying to find the criminal, but——
"It's troublesome..."
"I have a headache."
Megumin and Darkness both covered their foreheads with their hands.
Xiao Lin couldn't help but sighed, "Although I know the mastermind is still alive, I have no clue at all. I have no idea where to start if I want to catch him. I don't know what to do..."
Because they failed to catch the criminal before, and due to time constraints, they had to rush to make the clothes, so the progress of finding the mastermind immediately came to a standstill, and there has been no progress for several days.
"By the way, Xiaolin," Aqua asked at this time, "Do you have any new information from that strange source?"
"……No."
Xiaolin scratched his head.
Although I asked Dust and Chis to sneak into the Succubus Shop, I still didn't see the criminal. I don't know if he noticed the actions of Kobayashi and the others, so he became more cautious than before.
Crafty guy.
After hearing this, Hui Hui couldn't help but sigh and said, "Huh...what should I do?"
"Hui Hui, don't be discouraged." Xiao Lin patted her shoulder and comforted her: "By the way, I'll go make a cup of tea. Drinking something hot will calm you down."
“Oh, okay. I’ll leave it to you then.” Huihui didn’t refuse. She looked at her companions and said, “Can you make a cup for Aqua, Darkness, and Yunyun as well?”
"Ah, leave it to me."
Xiaolin nodded and walked towards the kitchen.
Looking at his leaving back, the three of them sighed even louder.
Youyou also said with a worried look on her face: "Mr. Xiaolin's curse has not changed at all. I have tried all the methods such as shoulder rubbing and massage, but there is still no effect..."
“I say, isn’t massage what Xiaolin wants?” Darkness couldn’t help but ask, “Didn’t they try something else?”
"I thought about this and let Xiaolin propose the content of the massage himself, but the curse was still not lifted."
Huihui shook her head helplessly.
Aqua was immediately unhappy after hearing this. She pouted and said unhappily, "What? It's obviously Xiaolin, but why is it so troublesome?"
"The problem is the curse, not Mr. Kobayashi." Youyou couldn't help but speak up for him.
Moreover, if the stupid goddess hadn't spoken out her desires at that time, how could Kobayashi have been so difficult to deal with because of the desires that bounced back? In the final analysis, it was Aqua's fault.
The stupid goddess smiled awkwardly.
Darkness thought for a moment and said, “It has come to this. Sure enough, there is something wrong with the clothes.”
“But, we still don’t know what the healing clothes are…” Huihui said in distress, “Besides, we don’t have the formula, what should we do?”
There are many types of clothes and all kinds of effects. Without a recipe, there is no way to make suitable clothes. Besides, clothes with healing effects are too ethereal.
Aqua even gave up.
"I say, in this case, why not let Xiaolin try on the clothes that have been made one by one? If we're lucky, maybe we can figure it out?"
Is this guy a devil?
Starting from the first piece of clothing they made, all the clothes Kobayashi and his team made were for women. Did they intend for Kobayashi to wear women's clothing?
"You guys, the tea is ready—"
Xiao Lin came back with the steaming hot and fragrant tea and poured a cup for each of them.
"Thank you, Xiaolin."
"Mm, it smells really good. It heals me."
"It's delicious. Thank you, Xiaolin."
Megumin, Darkness, and Aqua praised her endlessly.
"That's it, that's great."
When Xiaolin heard that they were cured, a happy smile appeared on his face.
"It tastes good." After taking a sip, Youyou also said in admiration: "Mr. Xiaolin seems to be very good at making black tea. This tea tastes really good."
"No, no, no, it's not the brewing method but the tea leaves that have done the trick." Xiao Lin felt a little shy after being praised, and quickly waved his hands and said, "For this moment, I bought some tea leaves that may have healing effects."
How disgusting...
The four of them couldn't help but shiver. Kobayashi's operation of buying tea leaves specifically to heal others made them feel uncomfortable.
"...Hey, everyone." At this time, Xiao Lin suddenly said, "Can I say something?"
"What's the matter, Xiaolin?"
"Or, why don't you just not look for the criminal?"
Xiaolin said this suddenly.
Aqua's expression suddenly changed and she shouted, "What did you say? What did you just say!?"
"I, what I heard seemed to be that they were not looking for the criminal anymore?!"
"How could that be? Did I hear it wrong?"
"No, you didn't hear wrongly. That's what Xiaolin said."
Huihui, Yunyun, and Darkness looked at Xiaolin with surprise, and then the four of them said in unison:
"——What on earth are you thinking!?" X4
