Their gazes met, and the other couldn't help but narrow his eyes. He shifted his upper body slightly and frowned. "You have a fierce gaze. You must have gotten into a lot of fights in the dojo recently."
"Mo Ya!" Luo Nan recognized his sister. He then looked at his wristband. It was already 1: 45 am, very close to the appointed time for breakfast.
"Where's your manners?" The distance between the two was too close. Luo Nan still dared to call her by her name. Mo Ya reached out her hand to pinch his face out of habit.
Though Luo Nan had lowered his head to look at the time, he nimbly tilted his head to avoid the attack. Then he relied purely on the strength of his waist and legs to stand up in this extremely narrow space, jumping out of Mo Ya's Torment Domain.
Mo Ya's eyes lit up. "You're like a living monkey. You've grown capable!"
"I'm alright." Luo Nan curled his lips. If it weren't for the fact that he was far too familiar with the aura of his family and that Cat Eyes, Yue Qin, and the others had stayed at a safe distance for a long time by his side, leading to his lack of vigilance, Mo Ya wouldn't even have had the chance to get close to him.
Also, thank you for your contact lenses …
Luo Nan wasn't prepared to get entangled with Mo Ya over the issue of sibling status. He looked around and saw that Hai Jing was here as well. He raised his hand in greeting and said casually, "Are you done with practice?"
Hai Jing chuckled. "Which one are you talking about? Do you want to watch me sleep? "
"Huh?"
Luo Nan suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He turned his head and saw the BHD trio. Xue Yuan had her head buried in her clothes, Clara was admiring her nails, and Bai Yu was leaning against the enormous wall mirror. She stared blankly at the ceiling. It was unknown where her mind had wandered off to.
Though the things they did were all different, there was one thing that was extremely synchronized: No one paid attention to Luo Nan. The atmosphere within the practice room was clearly low.
Not good! He had offended someone!
That's right. Not only was he "flirting" with the instructor in front of the gorgeous and dynamic song and dance, he could even openly sleep. What did he think of the three young and beautiful girls?
Even if she doesn't hold a grudge, she still has to sort out her emotions, right?
Luo Nan wanted to give a few words of explanation, but he discovered that he was simply unable to speak. He wanted to save the millions and millions of citizens of Xia City and prevent them from being harmed by the Mutant Virus. This was a great and honorable reason, but he needed people to believe it!
There was no other way. Luo Nan could only choose the simplest and crudest method: "I'm going out to make a call."
Making a phone call was an excuse, but contacting Peony was a matter that could not be delayed. Luo Nan activated Ink's perspective as soon as he walked out the door. He determined Peony's position.
The other side seemed to be the lobby of some high-class restaurant. Ink couldn't enter, so he could only see Peony's back through the street view glass. The latter was sitting peacefully on the sofa in the lobby waiting area. At this hour, was he taking a nap after the lunch?
Luo Nan didn't think too much about it. He directly transmitted the information: "Suspected target discovered. Location outside Becky's Coffee House on the west side of the plaza … …"
Peony clearly leaned back and shot back with annoyance, "Mr. Partner, I'm on a date. I'm going to see my family, okay?"
"Ah?"
"Forget it. Maybe this is God's will. Say it again, where is the target?"
Luo Nan saw that Peony didn't seem to be joking. He could not help but hesitate. "Did I really disturb you? Then let's wait … "
"Don't waste time. If you have something to say, say it!"
Peony took a deep breath, stood up, and looked around the hall. She seemed to still be reluctant to leave, but in the end, she still chose to walk out with large strides. "Perhaps it's fine to follow Mr. Ink, right?"
An enormous crow flew across the plaza. It was quite eye-catching. Fortunately, Luo Nan's target was in the outer perimeter. There were many people in the plaza, and the environment was complex. For the first time, he explained a few characteristics of the target in advance.
"Female. Early twenties. She wears a brown long windbreaker. She should be a university student in the parade. There are quite a few people around her. She might be drinking right now. Her emotions are quite agitated.
Peony walked forward as she listened. But her feet suddenly stopped in the end. "She's in the third stage of infection in the parade? That's a ticking time bomb, okay!? "
"I said it. It's just a suspected target. She shouldn't be in the third stage."
"Not yet? It's not like she's a Mutant. You're saying that she's … in the second stage? "The suspicion in Peony's words could be clearly heard even from two kilometers away.
"I'm not sure, but it's really hard to classify this person." Luo Nan didn't explain further because he had been out on the phone for too long. Haijing opened the door and stuck his head out to remind him.
"You lock onto the target first. I have a bit of a situation over here. I'll contact you later."
"Okay. I'll contact you when I'm in place."
Peony originally wanted to contact Trigate Security, but she put it aside for now. She prepared to observe and make a judgment. "I hope it's not a momentary misconception. If there's no doubt about it, I support you in starting a new research topic. When that time comes, I can call you Professor Crow."
Luo Nan responded in a bad mood, "I'll take your auspicious words."
He temporarily cut off the connection and returned to his room. Haijing laughed a bit apologetically. "We're going out to eat. We're going to move now."
On the other side, Mo Ya had just ended her call. Her expression was gloomy. She looked like she had something on her mind. She recovered her usual carefree and confident attitude when she saw Luo Nan return. "You're out of luck today. The beautiful woman I wanted to introduce to you isn't coming. Shuiyi has something to do as well. She won't be participating in this event …. The number of beautiful women has decreased by two-thirds."
Luo Nan didn't pay much attention to the first half of Shuiyi's words, but he was a bit surprised that Shuiyi wouldn't be going. Shuiyi was the drummer of the Mountain Creek Band. She was a band member whose popularity was second only to Mo Ya. They were about to rehearse. Was she going to act alone?
Haijing also laughed. "I originally wanted to invite Teacher Cat Eyes and Miss Yue Qin to come, but they need to accompany BHD to make some final adjustments …."
Luo Nan's eyebrows jumped. He turned to look at Cat Eyes. Cat Eyes acted as if nothing had happened. She sent him a smile. Her intentions were quite subtle. "An afternoon nap is very important. You can also do yoga in the meantime."
Yue Qin also said that she would accompany a friend. She wouldn't be joining in the fun.
As for the trio from BHD, they were excluded from the very beginning. After all, they were still half-grown children. Their stage experience was far inferior to that of Mo Ya, who had been struggling in the underground circles for many years.
That being said, Luo Nan discovered that he seemed to have overestimated the Mountain Creek Band a bit when they arrived at the restaurant and the banquet began.
The banquet started at two o 'clock. The atmosphere was quite average. The participants were probably pondering about tonight's performance. They were a bit unsatisfied with the food.
Mountain Creek was the lowest of the five member bands. The lead singer and rhythm guitarist, Mo Ya, and the drummer, Shui Yi, didn't participate. These two beautiful women were the most popular.
The other members were melodic guitarist, Wang Mo. He had taken over Mo Ya's position after she switched to lead singer. He was a professional and skilled musician, but he was a bit reserved.
The bass player, Huang Xiangdong, was normally as passionate as fire, but he was also a big alcoholic.
The keyboard player, Ma Lou, was the oldest member of the band. He was in the band back when Haijing was the lead singer. He was a founding member of the band.
It was reasonable to say that Ma Lou and Haijing were old acquaintances, but he simply didn't pay attention to them at the dining table. He just silently ate and drank by himself. His expression was indifferent.
As for the others, Mo Ya was a bit absent-minded. It was unknown what she was thinking. Wang Mo's fingers were subconsciously tapping on the table. It was as if he was memorizing the fingering technique. Huang Xiangdong didn't touch a drop of alcohol. He just ate and ate in silence.
The atmosphere grew more and more abnormal.
Luo Nan knew that this sort of atmosphere wasn't good, but he was powerless to do anything about it. Plus, he was busy with other matters. He needed to seize every minute and second to communicate with Peony. He left the table to take a call halfway through his meal.
Peony narrated the results of her observations. "It's suspected that the target's mood is unstable. He's overly sensitive to external stimuli. He has physiological photophobia. His breathing and heartbeat rates are around 12% higher than a normal person's. The difference is significant. These are all evidence that supports your point of view. In theory, we can believe that the Mutant Virus has brought about an initial transformation and adaptation process to the target. However, if you want to be serious, there are other explanations …. In comparison, the reasoning of 'it's better to kill the wrong person than to let the wrong person go' is more convincing. "
"How about increasing the sample?"
"Did you discover anything else?"
"Is this a blessing or a curse?"
Luo Nan's initial ranking of the living starry sky had indeed filtered out more than one target. He leaned against the wall of the corridor and operated his wristband. He used the electronic map to mark the locations of three other suspected targets. There was also a moving target, but it was a bit far away. He gave up on it for now.
"I'll send the map to the cloud space. You can just download it. It doesn't matter if you share it with Trigate Security. Speaking of which, when will their operation team arrive?"
"Let's not think about the operation team for now. With the traffic control in the city center, it would be considered efficient if they arrive within an hour. I just hope that their relationship with the security department is as good as they're bragging about. Mm. Wait a moment. I'll take a call.
Peony spoke a few simple words after the call connected. She quickly hung up and reported to Luo Nan, "This is good news. Sky Blue Security, where Long Seven is, is in charge of emergency support work in the municipal plaza area. He's currently bored to death, so he can help out. If there are special circumstances, he can also find people to support him. "
"Sky Blue Security?"
It had been a long time since he had heard of this.
Sky Blue Security was a specialized security company under Quantum Corporation. It was an important department that placed Deep Blue Walkers. Over a month ago, this department's combat team had a serious conflict with Luo Nan and Rui Wen. Later on, they suffered from Jack's indiscriminate attacks, resulting in disastrous losses.
Long Seven, or Snake Seven, was a member of this combat team.
It must be admitted that Sky Blue Security had the strength. Their equipment was comparable to that of the military's elite troops, and their personnel were well-trained. In a certain sense, they could be trusted as a support force.
Yes, Luo Nan remembered that Yan Yongbo was once the person in charge of Sky Blue Security in Xia City. But then he was called back to Luo City for a debriefing. It was unclear who the person in charge was now.
Luo Nan didn't care about Sky Blue, Earth Blue, or Quantum Atom. All he wanted was a cat that could catch mice. In any case, this wouldn't affect his pay at all. The only thing that would give him a headache was Trigate Security.
"Do as you see fit. Call me if there's any progress."
Mo Ya cast a glance at him as soon as Luo Nan returned to the room. She seemed to be very interested, "Girlfriend?"
Luo Nan was stunned for a moment, then he shook his head, "No. Just an ordinary friend."
Hai Jing laughed from the side, "So it really is a girl."
Mo Ya raised her hand to look at her watch, "A total of seven minutes and twenty seconds. You didn't dare to hang up on Mother's reprimanding call. This kind of call length should have broken the record."
Luo Nan grimaced in pain. Mo Ya, that's enough. Could it be that the first thing you did after entering the pop music world was to become vulgar?
Hai Jing continued to play the role of a supporting actor, "Nanster is very popular with women right now. Not everyone can stay an entire morning in the BHD practice room."
The two sang the same tune, not letting go of Luo Nan. Luo Nan was annoyed, but his heart stirred when he saw the relatively distant state of the others at the table:
