Chapter 24 at a loss

Jiang Xiao stood up and looked at the unnatural corpse of Li Qin on the ground. A strange feeling suddenly appeared in his heart.

Why... Looking at this bloody corpse, I was not at all uncomfortable?

Although Jiang Xiao's psychological quality has always been outstanding, if he had been the same as before, he would never have been able to be indifferent to such a tragic corpse.

He is not a cold-blooded animal. He looks vaguely in front of a person's corpse. Even if he doesn't talk about fear or disgust, his psychological resistance should always be a little bit higher.

But no matter whether it was when he was stirring Li Qin with his bone claws, or when he was watching the marching ant eat the meat on his chest clean, Jiang Xiao's heart did not have any fluctuations. It was like the meat in front of him, not his own kind at all, but pork and beef on the chopping board in the vegetable market.

Why did I...because I am now?

When did it start?

Jiang Xiao's heart sank again, remembering the scene when Zi Yan died beside him.

Both arms and legs evolved into poisonous bees to bombard Dark Yan, and two big holes were opened in his chest by Dark Yan's scorching fists. Zi Yan at that time looked no less than Li Qin's miserable situation now.

However, Jiang Xiao felt sad and regretful about Zi Yan's death, but he didn't feel anything about her appearance.

All he thought about at that time was a headache-

This is a corpse, a corpse in his car.

I want to deal with this corpse.

That's all. There is no nausea, no disgust, no discomfort when seeing the human body being damaged to the point of incompleteness.

Are you... sick?

Jiang Xiao squatted in front of Li Qin's corpse, staring at him, trying his best to regain that feeling, but he could not do it.

"Jiang Xiao..."

Finally, it was Zhao Tianyu's voice that broke the chaos in Jiang Xiao's mind.

Jiang Xiao turned around and saw Zhao Tianyu struggling to sit up from the ground, still breathing non-stop, with an unconcealed fear in his eyes.

"Jiang Xiao?"

Zhao Tianyu held the stair railing, and the flushing on her face caused by suffocation had not completely subsided. The hem of the bathrobe was messy, and her legs were trembling uncontrollably.

Jiang Xiao in front of him, his face was covered in scarlet blood, and he was simply... he was not the Jiang Xiao he had known before!

There is also this bald tall man who broke in. He was almost tortured to death by him just now!

But now, Jiang Xiao has taken his life away and turned into a broken corpse and fell to the ground.

What happened to Jiang Xiao on his body...!

Why did that man come to kill him? Why did he have such speed and power that is not human, and... cruel?

Why did Jiang Xiao suddenly become like that man... even stronger, faster, and more...brutally than him?

A series of questions were held in Zhao Tianyu's throat, but he didn't know how to ask, so he could only look at Jiang Xiao directly.

She even would rather be a nightmare and be able to wake up quickly.

"It's raining, I..."

Jiang Xiao stood up and turned to face Zhao Tianyu, not knowing how to explain everything.

His heart was also in a mess at this moment.

Neither of them spoke a word again, but just looked at each other quietly, with indescribable complexity in their eyes.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the shock and numbness just now gradually faded away, and Zhao Tianyu's heart was gradually occupied by the fear that had not reacted just now.

She had bit her lower lip repeatedly until she bit her blood, and finally confirmed that this was not a dream.

And since this is not a dream...

If Jiang Xiao hadn't killed that man just now... what would he look like now?

Zhao Tianyu tried his best to control himself, telling him not to think, but he could not control his thoughts. In his mind, he was tortured to the point of being unhuman, and his naked body that had lost his life repeatedly appeared and disappeared repeatedly.

Finally, her legs became soft again, and she knelt on the ground with panting quickly, and could no longer suppress her tears.

The fear that had been suppressed for a long time before finally broke out.

Jiang Xiao sighed softly, walked to Zhao Tianyu, who was almost broken by crying, picked her up in his arms, and walked into the guest room.

...

Zhe Yu sat in the car, looking at Jiang Xiao’s house by the road through the one-way glass. There was no expression on her face, but only the disbelief, disappointment, and confusion in her eyes.

Jiang Xiao... didn't really lie.

If Jiang Xiao was telling Li Qin just now, then Jiang Xiao would be dead now.

But Jiang Xiao was not dead, but Li Qin died. He was Li Qin who firmly believed in his heart that "the No. 15 computer room of Fanrong Middle School" was a lie.

So, what Jiang Xiao said is true. In Zi Yan's last words, the information was indeed in that computer.

But why... why can't I find it?

Why!

Zheyu clenched his fists hard, his heart full of doubts and anger.

The phone rang.

Zhe Yu took out his cell phone from his pocket, lowered his head, and saw that it was Jiang Xiao who called. He hesitated for a moment and then pressed to answer the call.

"Zhe Yu, where are you?" Jiang Xiao's voice was very calm. If it weren't for Zhe Yu's clear what happened to him, he would never have imagined that he had just experienced a life-and-death juncture.

"In school." Zhe Yu replied without hesitation: "What's wrong?"

"Dangyan...and the remnants are alive. They came to my house and attacked me just now."

"What!" Zhe Yu's voice was shocked: "This is impossible! I have killed An Yan, and several of his subordinates have been cleaned up. I have conducted a comprehensive screening, and it is impossible for there to be a fish that has escaped the net."

"Impossible?" Jiang Xiao groaned: "Then, have you heard the name Li Qin?"

Zhe Yu was silent for a moment before saying, "Is the person who attacked you Li Qin?"

"Yes. He said it very clearly. He is An Yan's subordinate."

"... Sorry, Jiang Xiao..." Zhe Yu said in a stern voice: "I... I didn't expect Li Qin would be a member of An Yan. In the internal organization of the academy, he was not under the jurisdiction of An Yan. I only screened An Yan's subordinates, but I didn't expect..."

"What I want is not your apology." Jiang Xiao coldly interrupted Zhe Yu: "What does apology mean to me? What I want to ask is, how do you guarantee that such a thing will not happen again?"

"I..." Zhe Yu smiled bitterly: "Sorry, I really don't know. Since those who are loyal to Dark Flame are not limited to his subordinates in the academy, I can't be sure now whether there are other hidden Dark Flame remnants in the academy. And I'm not sure whether the matter of your mastery of Zi Yan's last words will spread more widely, so that awakened people outside the academy will also know. So..."

"So you have no choice, right?" Jiang Xiao sneered: "Okay. I understand."

"Wait, Jiang Xiao." Zhe Yu quickly stopped Jiang Xiao from hanging up the phone: "You...Li Qin and he...I mean, how did you escape? He may continue to chase you."

"Maybe there will be someone else, but it won't be him." Jiang Xiao was silent for a moment: "Li Qin is dead."

"Diet?" Zhe Yu said in shock: "You...you killed him? This is impossible! I know Li Qin's skills very well. You have not been fully awakened yet. It is impossible for him to be his opponent. How did you do it?"

"Sorry, but it has nothing to do with you." Jiang Xiao responded bluntly.

"Okay..." Zhe Yu sighed: "Then what are you going to do next? Do I need to arrange a safe place for you to live in first?"

"Let's talk about it. If you need it, I will contact you again." After Jiang Xiao said that, he hung up the phone.

Zhe Yu was about to say something, but the phone was already busy. He smiled bitterly, looked at Jiang Xiao's house next to him, sighed softly, and then dialed a number on his phone.

After the call was over and after a while, Zhe Yu shook her head, started the car, and drove out of the community.

...

Jiang Xiao hung up the phone and slowly stood up from the squatting position, holding an electronic device the size of a bean in his hand.

The marching ant evolved from purple smoke cells ate Li Qin's corpse, leaving only the clothes on his body and this gadget.

Although I had never seen it, Jiang Xiao recognized it at a glance that it was a pickup.

And depending on its size, the power will never be very high. This means that its transmission distance will never be too far.

In other words, the person who monitors the other end of the pickup is likely to be nearby.

Jiang Xiao was not surprised. In fact, just when he said the answer to Li Qin before, he had already guessed that someone was remotely monitoring what was happening in the house.

If it weren't for this, Li Qin wouldn't have struggled to ask Zi Yan's last words before he died.

Of course, Jiang Xiao answered his question not to make Li Qin die with peace of mind, but to hope that the person or force who eavesdropped on the other end of the pickup could stay away from him.

Because Jiang Xiao knew very well that he had no value, and what was valuable was the last words left by Zi Yan. To be more precise, it was the "seed".

And if you want to completely get out of trouble, the best way is to make that secret no longer become a secret.

But...will that person believe that, Jiang Xiao has no confidence in his heart.

Jiang Xiao sighed lightly, letting the dense marching ants crawl back to his body, turn into cells and merge into his body, and smile bitterly as the mess at home.

Although Li Qin's corpse has been processed by the marching ants, the blood stains stained on the floor and walls cannot be eliminated.

There are also cracks on the wall, broken furniture and appliances...

Damn it! Why is my life so messed up like this!

Jiang Xiao crushed the pickup hard, and his heart was filled with boredom.

He raised his wrist and looked at the time. It was still noon and there were still several hours before evening.

If you continue to stay here, there may be dangers. Especially now, he is not the only one in this family.
