After a short day, the night at Kisaragi Station once again arrived quietly.
The remaining light from the sky seemed to be unwilling to leave just like that. It intertwined with each other in the ink-like darkness. Finally, both parties came to a compromise. The sky was dyed a deep blue. Even the clouds looked light blue.
The wind blew past Lin Sanjiu's hair. The world without humans was even quieter with the sound of the wind.
Kisaragi Station hadn't been built for a long time, but the buildings under her feet were already filled with green buds. Standing on the rooftop of the building, Lin Sanjiu looked into the distance. Unbeknownst to her, a few orange lights had lit up in the distance. It was the only sign of life in this dead pond.
"The duoluozhong must have turned on the lights to lure the survivors over," Hannie suddenly said without warning. Hannie, who seemed to have noticed the direction Lin Sanjiu was looking at, suddenly spoke without warning.
Lin Sanjiu was shocked by Hannie's observation skills.
Even though Rena and Rena had agreed that the siblings would be in charge of security, Hannie, who was sent by Derik, was the one who accompanied Lin Sanjiu on patrol, perhaps because they didn't dare to trust these outsiders completely.
After having dinner that night, Hannie's lips were once again bright red. Lin Sanjiu didn't know when she put on her lipstick. Every time she took a step, her high-heeled leather boots would make a loud clacking sound. The clacking sound could be heard clearly from afar. However, Hannie didn't seem to mind. She still wore her high heels and didn't seem to have any intention of taking them off.
Despite being such a reckless person, her observation skills were especially sharp.
Seeing that the street on the west side was quiet and there wasn't any movement after some time, the two of them turned around and walked towards another corner.
"Your ability is quite strange." After a long silence, Hannie could not help but ask, "Are you using it to scare people?"
Lin Sanjiu shot a glance at her and shook her head. The muscles on Hannie's neck contracted as she moved. It was a sight that made Lin Sanjiu's heart ache. Hannie immediately turned her gaze away.
In order to hide her trump card, Lin Sanjiu had never communicated with Derik and the others by writing.
Patrolling with a mute would be more interesting than patrolling with this ugly, red-skinned man. Hannie snorted and turned her head away, ignoring her. She continued to walk forward.
Lin Sanjiu had no idea how the woman managed to survive in the apocalypse.
It was probably a luxury exclusive to the residents of the Twelve Worlds. Even though she was in combat mode, Hannie's makeup was still intact. Her wavy hair was still neat and tidy. She wore a high-necked burgundy singlet and a tight short skirt. Although the lines of her body were beautiful, it was hard to imagine how she was going to fight.
Perhaps her ability could be controlled from a distance? Lin Sanjiu couldn't help thinking.
It was so quiet that it could even be called tranquil. She and Hannie were on the second shift today. The previous shift was Reno and Derik, but they didn't find anything strange either.
Out of vigilance, Lin Sanjiu maintained the range of her Higher Consciousness scanning at a radius of 600 to 700 meters. However, nothing happened even after a few hours. Instead, she had to expend a lot of her Higher Consciousness, causing the calf muscle on her left calf to shrink. After giving it some thought, Lin Sanjiu decided to adjust the range to a radius of 200 meters.
"Gosh, I still have to patrol with it for another two hours before I can go back …"
Hannie muttered to herself from afar. Lin Sanjiu could hear her clearly in her mind.
Lin Sanjiu didn't take Hannie's complaints to heart. She just turned her neck and scanned her surroundings. Even though her higher consciousness form wasn't her real body, Lin Sanjiu still cherished this feeling that she hadn't had for a long time. Whenever she had the chance, she would like to exercise.
When Lin Sanjiu turned her neck back, a few strands of Hannie's curly hair suddenly floated in the opposite direction of the edge of the rooftop.
"Is the wind coming?"
Just as this thought popped up in her mind, Lin Sanjiu didn't even have time to react. She suddenly felt that something was wrong. She instinctively moved her body backward, avoiding the wind that brushed past the tip of her nose.
There was indeed a gust of wind. However, the gust of wind was caused by a spherical object in the air. The spherical object shot out from another rooftop of a tall building like a cannonball. It whistled through the air toward Lin Sanjiu and Ji Shanqing. It was so powerful that the gust of wind was so sharp that it could pierce through a person's skin.
"Enemy attack!" Hannie immediately shouted into the communication device. She crawled up from the ground, looking a little flustered. At that moment, the spherical object in the air had already reached the rooftop. It suddenly opened up at the edge of the rooftop. A human face stuck out its tongue and smiled. It reached out its hand to grab the edge of the rooftop and flipped over. The spherical object had turned into a man with dark brown skin and a bare upper body.
Lin Sanjiu's heart skipped a beat. She didn't know where the other six people were. She only knew that this one person in front of her was difficult to deal with. At this point, it wasn't realistic to say that she was only here to be a guard. She quickly made a decision. She lowered her body and pounced toward the man.
"Whoa, what is this?" The man with dark brown skin was stunned. He quickly dodged her attack. He stuck out his long tongue and licked his cheek. When he saw Hannie's lowered back, his expression immediately changed. He somersaulted to the side and blocked Hannie's path.
"I don't want to fight you!" The man shouted at Hannie and stopped her in her tracks. Then, he turned to Hannie with a smirk. "You are my target!"
"Don't overestimate yourself!" Hannie shouted and leapt forward. A ball of light had appeared in her hand, and she threw it at the dark-skinned man's face. Unexpectedly, she chose to engage in close combat.
Lin Sanjiu deliberately slowed down and didn't rush forward to help.
This was a rare opportunity. Lin Sanjiu could use this opportunity to test Hannie's strength. After a few glances, Lin Sanjiu realized that Hannie was indeed quite strong. She managed to gain the upper hand with a few consecutive attacks and forced the man to retreat. Just when Hannie was about to reach the door of the rooftop, Lin Sanjiu heard footsteps coming from the stairs. It seemed that Derik and his men had come to help after hearing the alarm.
The man with dark brown skin cursed. He lowered his body nimbly and dodged Hannie's attack. Then, he dashed to the edge of the rooftop without taking a breath. When Zhu Mingchun broke through the rooftop door and barged in, he had already plunged into the roof.
Zhu Mingchun and Hannie immediately followed him. However, they didn't have the ability to jump down from a tall building. Both of them could only lie on the edge of the rooftop and look down. They cursed as they looked down. It was obvious that the man had escaped through the air.
"How are you? Are you hurt? " Reno and Rena, who were following behind Derik, missed their target. They didn't see the short, intense battle just now. They ran up to Lin Sanjiu with worried faces. Rena, of course, quickly averted her eyes. "What happened just now?"
Lin Sanjiu looked at them without saying a word.
Derik and his men were standing beside her, so she couldn't write.
As the man with the dark brown skin sprang down the stairs, she distinctly saw the number '7' written on the small of his back.
