For the next few days, everything was peaceful. The mysterious attack on the market seemed to have disappeared. If it wasn't for Pandora reporting to me that the two Unknowns had escaped, I would have thought that they had been blasted to smithereens by the Schilling Space Weapon.
Today was a rare day off. My sister cooked lunch to make up for Pan Lili's welcome party that she had been too busy with work. Even though she wasn't interested in it at all.
Even though it was a welcome party, it was only attended by Pandora, my sister, and me, as well as Shallow Shallow who came to join in the fun. Even though there weren't many people, this kind of gathering gave me a warm feeling. This feeling was something that those who spent their days in various social gatherings would never be able to experience.
After everyone was seated, my sister was the first to speak. "Now, let us welcome Sister Lili's arrival. Even though this welcome is a little late."
Shallow Shallow and I clapped together.
Pandora remained silent as she sat by the table.
Seeing that Pandora didn't react, my sister immediately thought of Pandora's' tragic experience '. She gently held Pandora's hand and said, "Lili, don't worry. From now on, you are a part of this family. I will take care of you like a real sister. No one will ever hurt you again."
I completely believed that no one could hurt Pandora. Based on the historical records of the Xiling Empire, the last civilization that tried to resist the Pandora Army had been reduced to cosmic dust.
Shallow Shallow's motherly instincts burst forth. She held Pandora's other hand and said, "Yeah, Sister Lili, you don't have to worry about anyone bullying you anymore. Plus, with us taking care of you, you might even have the chance to see things again."
Ahem … What I wanted to say was, actually, Pandora could even see how much E. coli you had on your hand.
"Ah Jun, say something." Seeing that I didn't say a word and only focused on getting food, Shallow Shallow couldn't help but get angry. "This is your biological sister! It's a good thing that Lily is always so attached to you. "
I raised my head and looked at the doll-like cute but cold Pandora. The latter's unfocused eyes turned in my direction. Perhaps it was because Pandora and I had always relied on our mental connection to communicate with each other, but I instinctively felt that Pandora's attention was completely focused on the crispy chicken fillet in my hand.
"Here, eat it." I pushed the chopsticks forward. To prove that Pandora couldn't see, I directly put the chicken fillet into her mouth.
I was rather curious as I watched Pandora quietly eat. As a magical construct lifeform, how did she become interested in the food of carbon-based lifeforms?
Shallow Shallow looked at the interaction between us' siblings' helplessly and sighed. "Ah Jun, you're really … the same as before. You haven't changed at all."
My sister smiled and tried to smooth things over. "Although Ah Jun doesn't seem to be good at expressing his feelings, he still cares about Lily."
"He really isn't good at it …" Shallow Shallow suddenly sighed. "Come to think of it, it's been a long time since we got together like this. Ever since I moved away."
"Yeah." My sister was also a little emotional. "I remember that both of you were just kids the same age as Lily now. When we parted, you cried so hard. Now you're all grown up …"
"Don't make yourself sound like an old granny." I rolled my eyes at my sister who was lamenting the passing of time. I felt a little guilty. My sister had shouldered the burden of the family on her shoulders for so many years. Although she was my sister, most of the time, she played the role of a mother. It was inevitable that she would feel this way.
Perhaps, ever since she started to shoulder the burden of this fragile family, her heart no longer belonged to a young girl.
Qian Qian, who was more careless, obviously didn't think so much. She laughed and said, "That's right. Sister Chen Qian is still young and beautiful. How can you say such old-fashioned words? Speaking of which, does Sister Chen Qian have a boyfriend? I wonder which lucky fellow will have such an honor? "
"Stupid girl!" My sister scolded. "Can't you think about something serious?"
"How is it not serious? This is about our Sister Chen Qian's lifelong happiness! "
It was said that women had two major skills. The first was chatting, and the second was shopping. Now, my older sister and Qian Qian had perfectly demonstrated the first of these skills to me. Soon, the two of them were completely immersed in their interactive mode. The main character of this gathering, Pandora, was left to the side.
"Ah, I was so focused on messing around with you that I forgot about Sister Lily!" My sister finally reacted and exclaimed. It was a pity that Pandora didn't have any reaction from the beginning to the end. No matter if she was inadvertently ignored or when her name was called, she just quietly ate the food in front of her. From time to time, she would fumble with the food to play the role of a blind girl. This way, it was as if the whole world had abandoned her.
Pandora, you will make your sister feel guilty like you are doing this …
As expected, seeing Pandora like this, the two girls who were chatting happily immediately blamed themselves. The elder sister first picked up the wine glass in front of her that hadn't been touched and said, "Lily, I'm sorry. I will punish myself with a glass!"
I hurriedly dissuaded her, "Sister, don't …"
I was a step too late …
This process could be simplified to the following words: Raise the glass, touch the lips, sister immediately pours.
Looking at her sister who had already fallen on the table, Shallow Shallow said, "I didn't expect Sister Chen Qian's alcohol tolerance to be so low."
At this moment, Pandora's voice suddenly sounded in my head, "Brother, one of the two carbon-based lifeforms that attacked us yesterday has appeared."
I was shocked, but I didn't show it. Instead, I joked with Shallow Shallow as I asked through the mental link, "What's going on? Where is that person? Is he coming for us? "
"He's just outside the door. The other party still doesn't have any hostility. After a comprehensive analysis of the other party's hormone status, the conclusion is that he doesn't have any intention to attack us. However, we can't rule out the possibility of him being a threat."
Outside the door?
I pondered for a moment before replying through the mental link, "Don't stop him. Just wait and see. If the other party really wants to attack us, prioritize protecting my sister and Shallow Shallow —"
At this moment, the doorbell rang.
"Eh, Ah Jun, did you invite someone else today?" Shallow Shallow asked curiously.
"Oh." I gestured for Shallow Shallow to sit down. "It's a friend. You stay with Lili for now. I'll go open the door."
Although Pandora told me that the other party didn't have any hostility, and I also believed that Pandora had the ability to settle everything before the other party launched an attack, the other party was still the one who had ambushed me a few days ago. Furthermore, the attack was quite powerful. Therefore, I was still a little nervous as I stood at the door.
However, this nervousness immediately turned into surprise the moment I opened the door.
I had imagined the other party to be a young man with a cold face, an unshaven uncle in black clothes, a fierce-looking man with a knife scar, or even a fully armed terrorist. However, I didn't expect the other party to be a sweet, tall, and beautiful girl.
However, the beautiful girl in a light yellow coat and shoulder-length hair in front of me didn't have a good expression on her face. Even though she tried her best to put on a smile, I could still easily see the deep anger in her eyes.
It seems like she suffered a lot from the Schilling weapons a few days ago.
Due to the appearance of the other party being out of my expectations, the speech that I had prepared beforehand was completely useless. We looked at each other awkwardly for a few seconds. Finally, I said, "You're really lucky!"
The beautiful girl's face immediately darkened.
Lin Xue was in a bad mood, extremely bad mood!
The reason was the man in front of her.
About ten days ago, the school that Lin Xue transferred to for a mission had a shooting incident. Many students were injured because of it. Since her ability wasn't suitable for direct combat, Lin Xue chose to report the situation to her superior and wait for backup. However, just as she finished reporting, three armed thugs suddenly fell to the ground. After a checkup, the doctors were shocked to find that their intelligence had dropped to the level of a mouse. In other words, they had turned into idiots.
Even though there were many suspicious points, no eyewitness could provide any valuable information, except for Lin Xue.
She noticed two noteworthy things.
The first was when the three criminals fell. Lin Xue clearly remembered that the three people were still standing there a moment ago, but in the next moment, they fell to the ground and became idiots. There was no process of them falling to the ground. It was as if a part of a video had been cut off! Normally, anyone would be able to notice such an obvious anomaly, but the situation had been too chaotic at the time. None of the fleeing students had noticed it, so much so that Lin Xue was now wondering if she had seen wrongly.
If the first point could be wrong, then the second point was definitely not a problem. When the three criminals fell to the ground, Lin Xue felt an abnormal energy fluctuation from the two students in front of her.
Lin Xue was 100% confident in her ability. Thus, she immediately reported the situation to her superior. Her superior then gave her the order to probe the target.
Then, a nightmarish day came.
Lin Xue clearly remembered that when Lin Feng's wind blade passed by the older boy, he did not react at all. Even the weakest psychic could not have sensed the obvious energy fluctuation that Lin Feng deliberately released. Just when Lin Xue thought that her judgment was wrong, that the other party was just two ordinary students, she found out that the two people not only noticed the traces left by the wind blade, but also calmly discussed something!
The other party had already discovered her attack and did not even put it in their eyes!
After coming to this conclusion, Lin Xue immediately decided to retreat. However, it seemed that it was too late. A terrifying energy almost instantly gathered above her head. Lin Xue even suspected that if such a powerful energy fell to the ground, it would directly evaporate the entire city!
The expected death did not come. Perhaps it was out of concern for the innocent people, the other party stopped their attack. The energy that gathered in the sky quickly dissipated — although the energy had already caused a moderate disturbance in the process of gathering.
Feeling the strength of the other party, Lin Xue decisively pulled Lin Feng who was still a little confused and began to run for their lives.
They ran for a whole day and night.
The other party did not seem to have any intention of killing them. They were just toying with Lin Xue and Lin Feng to their heart's content. The invisible energy column constantly followed behind them, driving them not to run like crazy on the streets. Every time they exhausted their strength and had to rest, the energy would also stop. When they finally recovered a little strength, the deadly energy would follow them again …
This kind of cat and mouse teasing continued until the next morning.
Then, Lin Xue and Lin Feng fought back from the nearby town …
Although they were chased to such a sorry state, Lin Xue still did not dare to offend the two people because such powerful psychics were too precious to the organization. No matter what, she could not let the two people go against the organization because of her.
Therefore, today, Lin Xue endured the grievance and anger of being toyed with and rushed to apologize. Unexpectedly, the other party's first words were like that!
