The next day.
The sun was high in the sky.
When Yi Lin got up and finished washing up, Old Xu walked out of the bedroom with two dark circles under its eyes and a messy head of hair that looked like a bird's nest. It held its waist and bared its teeth as it walked out of the bedroom. Who knew what happened to him last night.
"I never thought that I, who was invincible in Qing City, would be defeated by you."
Old Xu was very emotional. Time was unforgiving.
Back in the day, he could also fight until dawn.
Xu Anjing came out of the room with a cold face.
The rebellious girl's face was dark, and a pimple had grown on her moist lips overnight. She seemed to be a little heaty.
When Xu Anjing walked in front of Irin, she lowered her head and squeezed out a word from between her teeth, "Brother … Brother Ling!"
"What the f * ck?" Xu Zhiyong immediately sobered up. His eyes widened and he looked confused.
Old Xu knew his daughter's personality very well.
At this moment, Xu Zhiyong seemed to have changed into a different daughter.
What had happened during this long night?
Why did my rebellious daughter suddenly change her personality, as if she had been trained?
"Good girl."
Irin narrowed his eyes and smiled back.
"Ah?"
After Xu Anjing greeted him, she went to the bathroom to wash up. She walked very quickly, as if she couldn't wait to take two steps at a time.
Xu Zhiyong was still confused.
"I should go. Auntie's cooking is really delicious. I hope I'll have the chance to taste Auntie's cooking in the future."
"Hey, it's okay. Come often, come often."
Xu Zhiyong pulled Irin out of the door. Before his wife came out, he secretly lit a cigarette and took a deep puff. His face was full of ecstasy.
"By the way, nothing big happened recently, right?"
Xu Zhiyong asked quietly.
Irin heard this and couldn't help but laugh. "Don't worry, it's very peaceful here."
"That's good, that's good."
It was Xu Zhiyong's dream to safely retire. It was the best thing that happened.
Previously, the Qing City police station had been nailed on the board of shame of the police world for several months, and Xu Zhiyong had been busy for a long time.
They chatted for a while at the door.
Xu Zhiyong saw that Irin also had the intention to leave.
They didn't stop him.
He knew that Irin's identity was not ordinary. Once she was busy, it meant that something big was going to happen.
"What do you plan to do next?"
"Nothing special." Irin looked ahead. People were coming and going in the courtyard of the residential area.
The calm scene made Irin's gaze turn serious. He smiled and said, "Since there's still time, I want to understand this' world 'more."
"Traveling?"
"Oh, I guess so. I walked around before."
"That's good!" Xu Zhiyong puffed on his cigarette.
"By the way," Irin recalled something and casually mentioned, "I plan to go to Haiting City today. I have a friend who is injured, so I want to visit him."
Xu Zhiyong paused for a moment. "Injured? Is it serious? "
"Whether the injury is serious or not depends on how the meeting goes." Irin shook his head and said meaningfully, "Anyway, he won't die."
Xu Zhiyong: "?"
Was there something wrong with his logic?
What kind of injury depended on how the meeting went?
After Irin finished speaking, he said goodbye and walked downstairs.
In the end.
Irin suddenly thought of something. He turned around and said to Xu Zhiyong,
"You have a good daughter."
Xu Zhiyong: "???"
…
…
"Xiaoxi."
Irin left Qing City.
He kept thinking about this name in his mind.
If it was said that every chance encounter was not a chance encounter, then it would be.
Then there must be a reason for her appearance.
Assuming that there was really an existence similar to a "god" in the world Irin was in, the only thing Irin could think of at the moment was that little girl with a goat horn braid who always met him in various ways.
Returning to Qing City this time was not completely fruitless.
At the very least, Irin was sure of one thing.
While thinking, Irin took the "Earth Net" and arrived at Haiting City.
Walking out of the Earth Net exit, in the air above Haiting City, Li Changge's various flashy advertisements instantly covered Irin's face.
"Where are you?"
Irin contacted Li Changge in a friendly tone.
"Aiyo! Boss, why do you have time to look for me? Don't tell me you have something good to prepare for me? "
Li Changge replied almost instantly.
"Let's meet?"
"Oh! Wait a minute, I'm filming an international blockbuster! I'll apply for leave for the crew. Boss, wait for me for a while! "
Li Changge seemed to have already made up his mind to hold on tightly to Irin's thick thigh. Without saying anything else, he turned down his work and arrived in front of Irin half an hour later.
"Let's go! I'll bring you to have a meal to welcome you! "
Li Changge was a public figure after all. Wearing a mask and a hat, he pulled Irin sneakily and walked outside.
"No hurry, it's not dinner time yet. Let's go to your house. "
Irin smiled and sized up Li Changge.
Li Changge walked in front. For some reason, although Irin's smile was friendly, Li Changge felt a chill down his spine, as if an invisible knife was scraping his back.
But he did not think too much about it and brought Irin to his small villa.
"What level are you now?"
"I'm almost at rank 3!" Li Changge did not hide his apostle's level.
"Not bad, after Haunted-mist Mountain, you passed a few trials, right?"
"Hehehe, this, who doesn't know that I, Li Changge, am awesome!"
"Let's practice?"
Irin took a sip of the black tea and smiled happily.
"Ah?"
Li Changge instantly stood up and opened his eyes wide.
…
A few minutes later.
In the basement of Li Changge's villa.
Yi Lin looked around and sized it up. He smiled and said, "You've already fixed it."
She remembered that when Li Erpang and Su Xiaosu got married here, they almost tore down the basement. It was very funny.
"See, I spent almost a hundred thousand."
Although Li Changge did not lack this small amount of money, he still felt the pinch when talking about it.
"Come."
There was no nonsense.
There was no opening speech.
Irin took out an ordinary-looking ancient sword from her storage space.
— Xiao Thirteen Brand Ancient Sword.
After Blood Jasmine turned into a drop of blood and was integrated into Irin's body, it became a part of [Bloodline]. Irin did not have any suitable weapons at the moment.
Irin usually used this Xiao Thirteen Brand Ancient Sword to pry open doors, dig the ground, and knock on windows. It was quite handy, so she took it out immediately.
In addition, Irin followed Oda Wu all the way in Styx Junior High School and secretly learned a lot of techniques to exert force. She was not a pure novice in sword skills.
The moment Irin put the sword on her waist.
Even if the sword was not out of the sheath.
Li Changge's pupils shrank.
He felt that the atmosphere was a little strange.
"Boss, are you thinking of …" Li Changge was a professional after all, so he carefully considered his words. "Because of some misunderstanding, you don't like me and want to take the opportunity to beat me up?"
"How could I?" Irin took a step back with her left leg and her right hand on her waist. She was already in a good posture. She narrowed her eyes and smiled more kindly. "I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you. Let's find a chance to practice. "
"It even rhymes!"
Li Changge complained in his heart. When he wanted to say something else, Irin had already started counting down.
"Ten."
"Nine."
Traces of murderous intent leaked out from the corners of her mouth.
"Eight."
Li Changge's expression kept changing.
After taking a deep breath, he quickly took out two cards from his storage space and crushed them at the same time.
A set of pitch-black armor broke down and was put on by Li Changge with exaggerated special effects.
Immediately, Li Changge wrapped himself into a turtle shell, which looked very resistant to grass.
"Oh? Batsuit. Six. "
Irin smiled. After counting, she looked at the broad-bladed longsword in Li Changge's hand. There seemed to be two words engraved on the blade.
— — [Eight Directions].
"New equipment. What's its background?"
Li Changge smiled bitterly. "Eight Directions Invincible Sword. It's the small gift that Sister Su gave me last time. "
Li Changge did not say much.
He put on the full set of equipment.
The ability of the Eight Directions Invincible Sword was unknown for now.
But Irin knew very well that the Batsuit that she lent to Li Changge had a good damage reduction effect and a certain increase in damage output. It was an Epic-grade armor that could be called a jack of all trades.
In this way, Irin could fight to the death with ease!
When she counted to three, Li Changge gritted his teeth and took the initiative to attack. He attacked first and slashed at Irin with his sword.
Irin's psychokinesis perception had already spread out.
The entire basement was within the range of Irin's perception.
Even with her eyes closed, Irin could still see Li Changge's every move.
There wasn't anything fancy about this sword.
It was an ordinary and unremarkable New Year's Greeting Sword Technique. From top to bottom, it was a sword strike.
Irin took the opportunity to draw his ancient saber. The tip of the saber met the attack and swung it.
However, just as Li Changge was three meters away from Yi Lin, his speed suddenly increased by a level. With a leap, he suddenly left behind afterimages in Yi Lin's eyes. The originally ordinary Greeting of the New Year Swordsmanship also produced a whooshing sound as it slashed out.
"Huh?"
Irin let out a soft cry of surprise. The moment she sensed that something was wrong, Irin's saber and Li Changge's sword collided.
Clang!
A force as heavy as a mountain traveled through the ancient saber. Irin instantly felt the web between her thumb and forefinger go numb. She almost lost her grip on the saber and was knocked away.
"This power …"
A trace of surprise flashed in Irin's eyes.
Li Changge's eyes also flashed with a trace of shock, but he did not stop. After the weapons collided, Li Changge saw that Irin was about to retreat. He directly took a step forward and once again approached Irin's side. His sword stabbed at Irin from all kinds of wretched angles.
Every attack was aimed at a vital point. It seemed that there was no mercy at all. It was as if the two were fighting to the death instead of learning from each other.
Clang, clang, clang —
Irin used the ancient saber to block every attack from Li Changge. Every time she blocked, the force as heavy as a mountain was reflected in her hand. When she blocked the tenth attack, the skin between Irin's thumb and forefinger split open. Blood gushed out from the crack. Just blocking the attack had injured Irin.
"I see."
Irin was not shocked this time. Instead, she laughed. The invisible psychokinesis turned into an invisible giant hammer with Irin's mind. With a muffled bang, Li Changge was sent flying. He directly hit the wall and stuck there for a while before slowly sliding down.
Li Changge's chest tightened. He almost thought that he was going to die. Before he could catch his breath and think about whether he should continue fighting or act cute, Irin's voice came into his ears.
"From now on, let the world feel pain."
…
…
Ten minutes later.
Irin clapped his hands and sat on the ground comfortably. "This feels good."
On the other side.
Li Changge lay on the ground with his arms and legs spread out. Under the mask, his face was bruised and swollen. Two streaks of blood flowed down his cheeks. He looked very miserable.
"Boss, you're still saying that you didn't deliberately find a reason to beat me up? There must be some misunderstanding. Ahhh! "Li Changge breathed heavily with a long face.
"Don't worry. There really isn't any misunderstanding." Irin's expression was serious. He explained, "It's because of some things that I really want to beat you up."
Li Changge was speechless.
Irin closed his eyes. After a moment of silence, he said, "Invincible Octagonal Sword, the effect of increasing attributes within eight square meters? Hmm, it's probably the rule of crushing the opponent under certain conditions? "
Li Changge was shocked at first. He did not expect Irin to see through the attributes of this new weapon in just a few minutes. A strange look flashed in his eyes, but he quickly smiled and said, "Hehe, as expected of a boss. You can even see through this! The effect of this Invincible Octagonal Sword, as long as the opponent's Charisma is not as high as mine within eight square meters, I will be a little more 'invincible' than them. "
After a pause, Li Changge added, "It's just 'relative invincibility' in terms of attributes. It has no effect on long-range attacks and skill effects."
"Do you want to know why I suddenly want to beat you up?" Irin suddenly said as he put the ancient sword into his storage space.
"Uh …" It would be a lie to say that he did not want to know.
But if he said that he wanted to know, wouldn't he be disrespecting the boss?
Li Changge was conflicted again.
Irin had already stood up and walked towards the stairs.
As he walked, he said three words:
"Rhapsody."
Boom!
Those three words were like a bolt from the blue, landing beside Li Changge's ears. Li Changge was stunned. Even the wound on his face did not seem to hurt as much.
While Li Changge was in a daze, a card floated from upstairs to Li Changge's front.
"Merica pie. It's very delicious. Try it. It can replenish blood. Lady Boss's cooking is very good. "
“？？？”
"If I said that I specially brought some specialties for you to try, would you believe me?"
"…"
…
"Curse-Type Spiritual Weapon."
"Invincible Sword of Eight Directions."
"Batsuit."
Irin did a simple count of Li Changge's current equipment and sighed inwardly.
"This kid's equipment is not bad. No wonder he could survive so many trials. He's almost armed to the teeth."
When he walked out of Li Changge's villa.
Irin looked back and saw the two "Golden Li Changge" sculptures by the door. He wanted to knock them down.
After hesitating for a moment, Irin did not do so.
He had already vented his anger from the trials. If he knocked down these two frivolous sculptures, wouldn't it make him look petty?
There was no need.
It was fine to stop there.
Before leaving the villa.
Irin noticed that there were many hidden gazes around Li Changge's door.
Actually, Yi Lin had already noticed it when they arrived. However, Yi Lin didn't sense any malicious intent from these gazes at that time. In addition, she was bent on beating Li Changge up to vent her anger, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
At this moment, Yi Lin thought about it for a few seconds before she left, and she instantly came back to her senses.
Could it be the paparazzi's camera!
Irin did not know whether to laugh or cry.
This was the pain of being a public figure.
There was no privacy to speak of.
No wonder Ning You and Xiao Chuer were so surprised after learning about Li Changge's apostle identity.
Perhaps tomorrow, the unscrupulous media would publish an exaggerated report.
— — [Shocking! The young boy sneaked into Li Changge's private villa and was alone in the villa for a full ten minutes! Ten minutes! Ten minutes! Too fast!]
If it was even more ridiculous, he might even be on the hot search list for half a day.
When Irin thought of this possibility, he quickly lowered his head and walked faster.
That afternoon, Irin did not wander around and returned to the capital.
When he walked out of the Earth Network, Irin noticed the "Brand of Death" on his chest vibrate slightly.
— — It was Li Changge.
He seemed to have finally understood the deeper meaning of Irin's move and carefully probed.
…
Li Changge: "I thought about it, you're not trying to intimidate me and officially accept me as your follower, right?"
Irin: "… Is your home a mountain?"
Li Changge: "No!"
Irin: "Are you a tiger?"
Li Changge: "Of course!"
Irin: "Get lost."
Li Changge: "Then …"
Irin: "Is the Mekalou pie delicious?"
Li Changge: "You don't say, it's really good! It can even heal! " "Awesome!" "Do you have more? Give me eight or ten more!"
Irin: "You're really addicted to acting."
Li Changge: "Heh, who isn't?"
…
In this strange conversation, the two ended the chat.
But it seemed that after this kind of conversation, the matter of Irin beating up Li Changge was directly over.
Li Changge did not ask anymore.
Irin did not mention it either.
It was as if nothing had happened.
"I've planted a seed in that guy's heart."
Accept followers?
All the followers he had accepted before had run away.
In the past, Irin had always fought alone. At most, he could only be considered half a think tank.
When he wanted to accept followers, he realized that it was not so simple.
It was like in movies and novels, where a tiger's body shook and the aura of a king was released, and the followers all knelt down. It was impossible.
The only things that could truly frighten someone and make them submit from the bottom of their heart were a sense of mystery and a strong fist.
Only with a strong fist could one be the boss.
The most complicated thing was the human heart.
It was hard to predict the human heart.
Irin narrowed his eyes and deduced the follow-up plan in his heart. He was silent.
When he returned to the laboratory, it was already afternoon.
Ling Yiyi had already finished the morning treatment and had nothing to do.
"You seem a little different."
As soon as Irin approached, Ling Yiyi raised her head, smiled slightly, and said to Irin.
"Again?" Irin was a little surprised. "You can tell?"
"Do you know?" Ling Yiyi closed her eyes and gently covered Irin's chest with her white palm. She felt Irin's heartbeat and said softly,
"Everyone's emotions will inadvertently be reflected in the rhythm of their heartbeat, breathing, and footsteps. As long as I listen, even if you don't say a word, I can feel the change in your emotions. "
"I know you have good hearing, but I didn't expect it to be so abnormal."
"Who are you calling abnormal?" Ling Yiyi pinched Irin angrily.
"How are your eyes?"
"Well …" Ling Yiyi felt for a while and said softly, "I can't explain it clearly. I don't know if it's an illusion, but recently, I can slightly feel the changes in light."
"What!"
Irin was just asking casually.
But Ling Yiyi's answer made Irin's emotions fluctuate, and his heart beat fast.
Ling Yiyi acutely sensed Irin's emotions from Irin's heartbeat. She hurriedly waved her hand. "Don't, don't be so agitated. I don't know if it's because the treatment is effective. This change is just a little bit. The treatment specialist said that it might be a psychological effect caused by 'excessive anticipation' after repeated treatment. "
Irin's mood could only be described with four words.
Great ups and downs.
His heartbeat first soared to 120 beats, and then fell to 60 beats.
Ling Yiyi saw Irin pursing his lips and remaining silent. She comforted him softly. "It's okay. Actually, it's not a big deal that you can't see. My hearing is already much better than many people's. "
"Yeah, just take it slow."
Irin squeezed out a stiff smile.
Actually, Irin did not know how to feel about Ling Yiyi, a woman who occupied an extremely important position in the past and future.
The Ling Yiyi he knew was the woman who silently bandaged his wounds for him in that hopeless future. No matter what happened, she would never leave him.
But in this world, Ling Yiyi did not experience the same future as Irin. Instead, she had a past that made Irin feel extremely unfamiliar. This feeling of suddenly changing into another person was like a thorn in Irin's heart that could not be removed. Every time he thought about it, he did not know how to face it.
Ling Yiyi's eyes also became a thorn in Irin's heart.
If he did not find a way to cure Ling Yiyi's eyes, this thorn would always remain in Irin's heart.
"Xiaoxi."
While he was struggling, Irin suddenly remembered the name that had been in his mind for two whole days.
If there was a way to cure Ling Yiyi's eyes in this world, it was only … her.
Find Xiaoxi!
No matter what!
Other than wanting to know the truth of the world, Irin had another reason.
After comforting Ling Yiyi, Irin left alone.
Ling Yiyi listened to Irin's footsteps until she could no longer hear him. Then she sighed softly. She did not know what it meant.
…
"If 'Xiaoxi' is really the 'God' of this world, she should know everything. There is no reason for her not to know that I am looking for her."
"If she can really know the present, the past, and the future, does she know that I came from a completely different and hopeless future?"
"Or is all this related to her?"
Although Irin had made up his mind, Irin had a headache about how to implement it.
Every time he met Xiaoxi, it was in a turbulent crowd.
Every time, she was looking for her mother.
Wait.
Looking for her mother?
…
"Ou Lele! Are you there? "
Irin used his fastest speed to contact Ou Lele.
Congratulations, this child was still alive.
"Don't mess around, I am in class!"
"You still need to go to class? I have something to talk to you about. "
"I am still a child okay! Don't, you are definitely not looking for me for anything good! "
"Who said so?"
"Uncle Zhao said so!"
"… Don't bother about him. I heard that the truly awesome geniuses all rely on self-study. Besides, with your talent, why do you need to listen to a teacher? You can even teach him, okay? "
"That … seems to make sense! But I am in class, how can I ask for leave? "
"Just say that your stomach hurts. Is it that hard to call 120?"
"Oh! The genius Ou Lele will be here soon! "
…
After using the apostle communication device to contact Ou Lele, Irin arrived at the designated location.
It was also the plaza where he last saw Xiaoxi.
Irin gradually accumulated a wealth of experience on how to fool a child with strong self-esteem.
Half an hour later.
Ou Lele, with his familiar mushroom hair and carrying a non-mainstream backpack, ran over while licking a lollipop.
"How did you sneak out?"
"120!" Ou Lele said matter-of-factly.
"Then what about the ambulance?"
"Sigh, that's easy." Ou Lele stretched out his small palm and smiled smugly. "Before I got on the ambulance, I directly hacked into it. The back of the car was smoking. While they were sweating profusely, I took the opportunity to sneak away. Before I left, I also deleted the 120 call record. "
"…" Ou Lele's ability seemed to be able to do whatever he wanted in a technological society. It was no wonder that the Anomaly Group made an exception and recruited Ou Lele when he was still a Stage 1 newbie. In many cases, his ability was simply too convenient to use.
Irin simply stated his purpose for coming.
Ou Lele heard it and instantly exploded. "What the heck? Just this small matter? Just get the surveillance footage and it's done. You still need me, the genius Ou Lele, to do something like this? I thought there was some secret mission that none of you could handle! It makes my blood boil. "
A few minutes later.
Ou Lele casually found a port, and without much effort, he obtained the surveillance video from that time.
Irin looked at the small video on Ou Lele's tablet and remained silent.
The scene that day was still vivid in his mind.
In the crowd, Xiao Xi was looking for her mother.
Irin played with Xiao Xi for a while and told her a heartwarming story.
But like the surveillance video in Qingcheng, Xiao Xi's face in the video was also censored and couldn't be seen clearly.
"Oh? This is – "
Ou Lele said that it was boring, but when Irin looked at the video seriously, he curiously leaned his head over.
With one look, he realized that something was wrong and immediately said in puzzlement, "Strange.
Why would a proper video be censored? "
"Can you get rid of it?"
"I'll try."
Ou Lele snatched the tablet and started to work on it with his fingers.
One minute.
Five minutes.
Ten minutes.
Irin quietly watched Ou Lele show off for a full ten minutes. Then, with a thud, the lollipop in his mouth that hadn't melted completely fell to the ground.
"This doesn't make sense! This video doesn't have any traces of being edited at all. This mosaic wasn't added after the video was recorded. That's impossible! If the mosaic wasn't added after the video was edited, how could it be called a mosaic? This doesn't make sense at all! Unless – "
Ou Lele's forehead was sweating profusely as he talked to himself. But when he thought of a strange possibility, he instantly straightened his back and was so scared that his whole body turned cold.
"Unless what?"
"Unless, unless, unless …" Ou Lele's lips trembled, and he hesitated for a long time before he said what he was thinking. "Unless, when the surveillance video was recorded, the girl's face was a mosaic like this …"
When Ou Lele finished speaking, he was scared silly by the horrifying supernatural scene in his mind.
