I don't even know where the main text is. Let's go to sleep … Previously, I said that I would try my best to update earlier, and I didn't go back on my words. Midnight is the earliest time of the day.
"Marcie," Lin Sanjiu controlled her facial muscles and tried her best to speak to Marcie, "Come here. I want to ask you, did you see my silver bottle?"
When Marcie mentioned the silver bottle, the first thing that came to her mind was the Ability Polishing Agent. Marcie didn't move. She replied with a puzzled expression, "Didn't I leave it on the sofa?" As she spoke, she patted Kong Yun's back.
Since she left with Kong Yun, she had no choice but to leave the Ability Polishing Agent upstairs. Lin Sanjiu was aware of this fact.
Suddenly, Lin Sanjiu frowned, "Oh, I forgot to take it!" She turned to Kong Yun and smiled, "It's all my fault. I'll ask them to accompany me upstairs. Sister Kong, can you wait here alone? "
Kong Yun was stunned.
Lin Sanjiu knew that her actions weren't very natural, so she didn't give Kong Yun a chance to speak. Lin Sanjiu pulled Luther to the door and beckoned to Marcie, "Come on, let's see if there are any resources that we can use."
Marcie looked confused and doubtful, but she still stood up obediently.
"Sister Kong, don't be afraid. We will be down soon …" Lin Sanjiu said with a smile as she pulled the door open. Just as the door was about to close, Kong Yun sat in the living room, looking at Lin Sanjiu with an expressionless face.
As the door closed with a loud bang, darkness covered Lin Sanjiu's face.
Just as the door was closed, Lin Sanjiu turned and ran upstairs. The other two people followed her, confused. Luther was the first to react. He asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Did you notice something wrong? "
"I … I hope I'm just overthinking!" Lin Sanjiu's voice trembled as she took big strides forward. "Let me go up and confirm something first …"
Within a few minutes, the three of them had run up to the top floor. Lin Sanjiu's heart raced. She didn't even have time to catch her breath. She pushed the door open and rushed into the apartment on the 38th floor.
"Give me a lighter!" Lin Sanjiu yelled.
Luther threw a parabola in the air. The second the lighter fell into her hand, it lit up with a click. The orange-red flames lit up half of the dining hall.
There were four bowls on the dining table.
Luther and Marcie looked at each other. They couldn't help looking at the spot Lin Sanjiu had lit up.
"Huh …?" Marther noticed the anomaly before Luther did. "Why isn't she —"
Just now, they had finished their porridge in the dark, got up and left, so no one noticed anything strange. Now that he took a closer look, he realized that something was wrong. Of the four bowls on the table, three of them had a small pile of chicken bones and skin. It looked like a mess. Only the bowl that Kong Yun had used was empty.
"Well, that's not a big deal. Maybe she just likes to eat chicken bones." Just as these words entered Luther's throat, he saw Lin Sanjiu take Kong Yun's bowl from him with a serious expression. Lin Sanjiu glanced at Kong Yun's bowl, and he immediately swallowed his words.
In the scorching Hyperthermal Hell, even though they had evolved, they were still slightly dehydrated. That was why the three of them had to replenish themselves with water from time to time. Even though they owned a supermarket, every drop of water was extremely precious to them. Naturally, they didn't leave any of the porridge soup and drank it all up.
However, Kong Yun's bowl was half filled with white, sparkling soup.
Lin Sanjiu stirred the soup with a spoon. She found that the soup had been scoured clean. Not even a grain of rice was left. The chicken pieces that were cooked in the soup had also been eaten. Only the most precious water in the new world was left behind by Kong Yun, not a single drop missing.
"Why … Why isn't she drinking water?" Luther frowned. He bit his red lips so hard that a line appeared.
Lin Sanjiu didn't look too good.
Thanks to her [Sharp Intuition], she was able to piece these seemingly disorderly fragments together. However, if her intuition was right, Kong Yun would be much more difficult to deal with than any duoluozhong.
"She lied," Lin Sanjiu said slowly, enunciating each word. She must have developed at least one advanced ability … If I'm not mistaken, I have a rough idea of what her ability is. "
Chicken, rice, plants, goldfish, vegetables in the fridge …
Lin Sanjiu put down the bowl of porridge and looked at Luther and Marcie. Her voice was a little heavy. "Kong Yun's ability is probably to turn all forms of life into nutrients for her to survive. I'm guessing that as long as she touches her target, she will be able to absorb it completely without making any noise. How long did it take for us to eat? All the rice and chicken disappeared as if they never existed! "
Marcie sucked in a breath of cold air and said, "… All life forms? She can absorb them just by touching them? This … This isn't just an ability for survival. If this ability is used in battle … "
They would definitely die if they touched it.
"But that doesn't explain why she doesn't drink water." Luther's face turned pale when he recalled how they had bumped into each other as they went down the stairs.
"Could it be that her ability has modified her body so that she can't absorb water like us? For her, all the water and nutrients she needs must be absorbed from other forms of life, "Marcie suggested.
"We have been with her for half a day … If she was hostile, the three of us wouldn't have survived until now, right?"
Lin Sanjiu nodded. This was what she wanted to say. At the same time, it was a glimmer of hope in her heart.
What she was afraid of was …
Just as the thought surfaced in her mind, before she could voice it out, Kong Yun's voice came from the darkness again, "Why are you guys taking so long just to get something?"
The three of them froze. "Is it a long time?" Lin Sanjiu couldn't help looking at the time on her digital watch.
From the time they went upstairs until now, it had only taken them ten minutes. Why was Kong Yun following them so closely?
When Marcie saw that the other two were in a daze, she quickly raised her voice and said, "Wait at the door. We will come out soon."
Kong Yun replied with an "oh", but she acted as if she didn't hear anything as she slowly dragged her feet into the house.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.
After two seconds of silence, Marcie forced a smile, "Hey, we are going out now. You don't have to come in …"
Kong Yun said softly, "I'm afraid of being alone, so I want to stay with others. You don't mind, right?" As she said that, she walked closer to the three of them. She smiled at them and reached out to hold Marcie's arm.
Lin Sanjiu's heart skipped a beat. Just when she was about to stop Marcie, Luther had already pulled Marcie away from Kong Yun. His speed was so fast that he could only be seen as a shadow.
Marcie had just steadied herself when Luther growled, "What are you trying to do?!" His voice was trembling with anger. It was the first time Lin Sanjiu saw this fair-skinned and delicate young man getting angry, "You have already developed your ability, right? We all know about it! Tell us, why do you keep pestering us? "
"Ah …" Kong Yun seemed to be in a daze and couldn't react for a moment. After a while, she said embarrassedly, "There is indeed something wrong with me … I didn't dare to tell you at first because I was afraid that you would be afraid of me. So, you already know … "
Marcie looked at her cautiously and asked cautiously, "You … don't have any intention of harming us, right?"
Lin Sanjiu immediately looked at her. Marcie was a good person, but sometimes, she was too trusting. If Kong Yun really had bad intentions, would she tell you honestly?
"Harm you?" Kong Yun was stunned for a moment. Then, she said something that Lin Sanjiu didn't expect, "No, no, no. One is enough. I don't want to absorb three people. That would be too cruel."
Her words were like a stop button that froze the air.
Looking at their shocked faces, Kong Yun seemed to have hardened her heart. She sighed and said, "Actually, I don't want to absorb living people at all, but my body is too weak. I have already absorbed everything in my house, even the security guard downstairs. But, I still feel weak, so weak that it's uncomfortable … "
Lin Sanjiu didn't know if she should be angry or laugh.
Kong Yun probably saw Lin Sanjiu's expression, so she wiped her tears, "When I first saw you, I didn't think about absorbing people. However, the longer I stayed, the more I couldn't take it anymore … You can tell me that if you can save your life by killing one person, would you do it? "
She didn't really want to listen to their answers. She immediately raised a finger and pleaded, "I just want to absorb one person … Really, just one!"
"Marcie, Luther, didn't you just meet her yesterday? You are just acquaintances … "Kong Yun's face revealed a maniacal smile," Without this girl, you can still live your lives. You won't lose anything. "
"You sure have arranged it well for us," Lin Sanjiu sneered. Lin Sanjiu sneered. She did not look at Luther and Marcie's expressions, but a raging fire burned in her heart.
When Kong Yun heard that, she turned to look at Lin Sanjiu, "Miss, I understand now that your boyfriend isn't with you. You guys are just fooling around. You won't understand the relationship between me and my husband … I can't die. Even if everyone in the world dies, I can't die. I want to wait for my husband to come home … "
Luther couldn't bear listening to her anymore. He scolded, "Stop talking nonsense. If you want to eat people, go back to your hometown and eat yourself!"
Lin Sanjiu felt relieved. She turned to the two people beside her and smiled.
Just when she was about to turn back, her gaze swept across her bedroom door. The door was pure black in the dark night, as if it had become part of the universe. Behind the door was a double bed.
"Bed …"
In an instant, a thought flashed across Lin Sanjiu's mind. Before Lin Sanjiu realized it, she had already blurted out a question, "Kong Yun, you said that when you woke up last night, only his pajamas were left on the bed?"
"Yeah, why …" Kong Yun saw Lin Sanjiu's expression before she could finish her sentence. Her face immediately turned deathly pale.
Lin Sanjiu smiled at her, revealing a row of white teeth. She stared at Kong Yun's face intently, "BINGO, I found your husband."
