Xiao System: Diviner Yi Hua
A Dancer 5: Investigating Wei Fei

"What do you mean he has the aura of death?" yi Hua asked inwardly to Xiao.

It made him look like he was daydreaming. Until he was unaware when the dancing man, Wei Fei, sat beside him while greeting Huan Ran and Liu Xingsheng. It made the two Prime Ministers immediately return the greetings from Wei Fei as normally as possible.

It was as if they had just accidentally met here.

Xiao seemed to think for a moment, causing silence in Yi Hua's ears. However it only happened for a few seconds, and after that Xiao spoke again. This time with a bit of surprise in his voice.

"Now there is no more" Xiao said in disbelief.

Yi Hua increasingly did not understand Xiao's intentions. He thought Xiao had been quite an obscure creature all along. Do not let Xiao become a figure who likes to talk indistinctly as well.

"Before this man had an aura of death. It was as if this man was carrying something dead, or this man was not actually human. However, now that the aura was gone," explained Xiao who realized that Yi Hua was now confused.

Even Yi Hua was now daydreaming as her mind carried dancing cows. It made Wei Fei stretch out her hand to touch Yi Hua's face which was still covered in a transparent cloth cover.

THE PLAQUE!

Yi Hua was a fast daydreaming person, but his reflexes were also fast. So that when he only saw her from the corner of the eye, mama' Yi Hua would act. That was what made Yi Hua immediately fend off Wei Fei's hand that was approaching her face.

Why is it so easy to touch someone else? Basic Lizard!

However from that physical contact Yi Hua was also able to confirm the remark from Xiao. Wei Fei's skin felt warm, so she was not the same as a human shell. The warmth of Wei Fei's skin also made Yi Hua sure that this man's heart was beating. He's not a ghost, either ...

"Be careful with her, Yi Hua. If he could hide such an aura, it could be that he was a high-level demon. Because, if he was just an ordinary ghost, he wouldn't look 'perfect' like a human." Xiao said in a worried tone.

From his experience all along, Yi Hua understood what Xiao meant.

Basically, humans live side by side with other creatures. At one time the boundary between the human and other worlds will intersect. Like when on a full night right at the top of the sky, then Mount Hua will open. That's when the boundary between the human world and other worlds is lifted.

However the territory of Mount Hua was controlled by Hua Yifeng, so he could also be called as the Demon King. Therefore, they called Hua Yifeng the demon of destruction. He was the highest level that ruled the other world.

Okay ... Let's not talk about Hua Yifeng. Yi Hua hated his own thoughts.

I better check out this lizard guy in front of me first.

In essence, only demon lords and high-level ghosts could transform him as perfectly as a human. Usually if it was an ordinary ghost, then it would not really be able to cover his physique. Like a hair that wouldn't be as strong as a human, or a line of hands that they couldn't make. Even with the curves above the lips, an ordinary ghost would not be able to make it so perfect as a human

Yi Hua pretended to raise both of his hands knotted in front of his chest to salute. However, Yi Hua deliberately lowered her body too leaning on Wei Fei. Then, pull her hair. If Wei Fei's hair was detached like it was not properly attached, then Wei Fei was not a human.

SRETT!

"Wei Fei's hair is safe! It still remained intact despite being harvested," Yi Hua reported to Xiao for the system to collect data on Wei Fei.

"Oh." Wei Fei complained while touching her head so as not to fall victim to Yi Hua's rudeness.

The man's eyes looked at Yi Hua in disbelief. However, Yi Hua's unconcerned face made her a little irritated.

"Sorry, Mr. Wei. I see cowhair in your hair" said Yi Hua.

Wei Fei looked at Yi Hua full of probing, "Where did this beauty know that my family name was Wei?" ask Wei Fei quickly.

Yi Hua glanced at Liu Xingsheng for help. But the man pretended to raise his drinking bowl as if it was still there. Though, Yi Hua knew if Liu Xingsheng's bowl had previously been empty.

It was obvious that Liu Xingsheng had refused to help her.

Also, Yi Hua did not dare to ask Huan Ran for help!

"Hc .. ha ... Didn't we meet yesterday? You definitely don't remember because we were only briefly acquainted," Yi Hua replied as she glanced over to ask Liu Xingsheng for an opinion.

Wei Fei looked puzzled before looking at Yi Hua again. "I can't forget about ..."

BRACKET

"You forgot!" Yi Hua suppressed his voice in every word.

Yi Hua suddenly kicked down the table in nervousness. That made him the center of attention. Yi Hua who noticed the gazes of all those people instantly pretended to be staring at the ceiling of the inn. Wish there were interesting sights there like spider webs and so on. Unfortunately, this inn is too clean.

Less aesthetic. Thought Yi Hua.

"alright. I forget," Wei Fei replied as he did not want to be considered as similar as Yi Hua.

Alright. Back at the information that Yi Hua wanted to gather.

Wei Fei looked in pain as Yi Hua pulled her hair. Meaning the second possibility, that Wei Fei was carrying something that smelled 'death' in him. Yi Hua had to check this possibility again.

Yi Hua tucked his hand inside his wide sleeves to fetch the holy water. This is the water that fortune-tellers usually carry to neutralize bad magic. Yi Hua obviously took it because Yi Hua did not have the power to neutralize magic.

SRAT!

"Hey!" Wei Fei screeched as her face suddenly dabbled Yi Hua with water in her little jade bottle.

The dancing man got up from his seat only to wipe his wet face. Although the water in the jade bottle was not much, it was enough to make his face wet. Even Wei Fei's remaining makeup now seemed to have faded from the water splashing from Yi Hua.

But the results are ordinary! If Wei Fei was a ghost, then his skin would peel off. However, what wears off is the makeup of the dance only. There was also nothing burning around Wei Fei. So there was clearly no 'death' smelling stuff in Wei Fei.

"Maybe the one thing this dancing man regrets is getting acquainted with a rude person like you, Yi Hua," Xiao said concernedly.

Again the visitors of the inn looked back at their table. However this had been the umpteenth time they had made a fuss. The innkeeper thought of ejecting the guests who claimed to be travelers later. Especially if they make a scene again.

Huan Ran looked seriously counting the beans on one of the dishes just so as not to look like coming with Yi Hua. Liu Xingsheng immediately restrained Yi Hua's hand just because he was afraid that Yi Hua would cause another riot. However, he never expected that Yi Hua would act like a bandit!

Wei Fei rubbed his face with a purple handkerchief. I don't know where the guy took it. But the purple color seemed to match Wei Fei's stature. Although the handkerchief looks more like a girl's handkerchief than a lizard guy like Wei Fei.

Wei Fei complained softly. "Did I owe you a debt in a previous life? That's why you're being rude to me when we're just getting acquainted."

"Hc .. ha ... He said, the makeup on the face will quickly disappear if it is immediately cleaned with running water," said Yi Hua with a face without any sweetening ingredients. Flat. Without guilt or discomfort.

The problem was, was the definition of flowing water like Yi Hua did?

Finished cleaning his face, Wei Fei no longer sat closer to Yi Hua. She was regretting Yi Hua's beautiful face that was like a flower on the snow. The cold and calm impression on Yi Hua's face was shattered by his act which was like a debt-collecting bandit.

This time it was Huan Ran who opened the conversation. Just so that Wei Fei wouldn't mind the old problems anymore.

"A very amazing performance, Mr. Wei," praised Huan Ran as he raised his two hands grasping the drink bowl.

A form of celebration for Wei Fei.

For the sake of politeness, Wei Fei replied to Huan Ran by lifting the drink bowl, which was somehow owned by who. Wei Fei had not ordered any drinks. Next to her was Yi Hua who daydreamed and sometimes spoke to herself.

After that, there was no more talk on that table. That was because they were actually confused to open the conversation.

Liu Xingsheng kicked Yi Hua's leg to resuscitate Yi Hua about his mission. And, it made Yi Hua directly ask. "Are the children dancing often with a group of dancers?"

SRETT!

Liu Xingsheng again kicked Yi Hua's leg, and whispered as little as possible. Almost like when a fish sings. Only Yi Hua could hear it.

"Why don't you ask me directly like, 'what are you guys kidnapping those kids?'," Liu Xingsheng said exasperatedly.

He said he was told to ask! Why the Prime Minister is so insistent that he often kicks my feet.

Wei Fei's reply was a little surprising. Especially when Wei Fei quickly forgot about the persecution that Yi Hua had done to her. The man put the handkerchief back into his sleeves.

"Usually we bring the abandoned children to join the group," Wei Fei replied as she raised her hand. Ordering for himself. Maybe the guy was thinking of joining them.

"Is it because they want it or are you the one who convinced them to come?" This time Huan Ran asked.

Wei Fei laughed again. Again the fangs in his mouth were visible. Somehow Wei Fei's smile became very attractive because of his two canines.

"Did they have a choice? They're just kids who don't know if they can live tomorrow or not. Master is only providing a place because we need it," Wei Fei replied with a smile on his face.

Mister?

Yi Hua picked up the beans that Huan Ran had counted before. He put some seeds in his mouth. "I'm guessing if you're leading this group."

"I'm just a dancer. Master was never seen, and asked me to take care of all of this" Wei Fei replied again before he continued speaking. "I don't even know your names yet, and you've been asking a lot of questions about me."

Huan Ran raised his hand to introduce himself. "My family name is Lin, and my name is Ran" Huan Ran said, introducing a pseudonym.

After, Liu Xingsheng went on to introduce himself. "I am his sister, Lin Sheng. Meanwhile, the man who doused you earlier was a friend we accidentally found in the bushes. Her name is Hua Yi."

I don't know why I feel like Liu Xingsheng is introducing fleas instead of introducing myself to Wei Fei.

Wei Fei raised next to his brows. "I didn't expect that it would be wrong to guess, Hua Yi. You look so pretty that I don't know if you're not a man."

Wei Fei was probably the type of person who directly spoke nonformally to strangers. Yi Hua tried to ignore Wei Fei's familiar call to her.

"About those children .." said Wei Fei suddenly.

The man took the time to pour himself a drink. Then, pour the drink also for Yi Hua. But from the smell, Yi Hua knew that Wei Fei was only pouring ordinary water for her. It was not the same water that Huan Ran and Wei Fei drank.

"Tomorrow we'll make another street show. We decided to stay longer in Zhu City, as well as teach the flower dance to the people of Zhu City," Wei Fei said with a smile on her face. The man seemed quite enthusiastic about his job as a dancer.

Yi Hua thought for a moment. "I want to learn to dance, Mr. Wei."

Yi Hua's words made Liu Xingsheng display an incomprehensible face. However, this is not a good time to watch a show or learn to dance. They can work faster if they investigate the group of dancers directly to where they stay.

Why should I participate in dance lessons?
