Chapter VI: Murderers
Faced with the abnormal situation in front of her, Su Xiaoxiao quickly put away her lazy sitting posture.
Her face was grim, and her fingertips tapped her eyes. The pitch-black pupil of the right eye turned red in an instant, and a matrix of numbers flowed.
"Who are you?"
Su An shook his short brown hair and leaned back in his chair.
He lifted Erlang's legs and looked at Su Xiaoxiao's right eye, revealing an interested look.
"That's what you're capable of?"
"I didn't expect that there really was such a supernatural force in this world, heh, interesting. β
He took a sip of the tea on the table, then shrugged his shoulders and smiled regretfully.
"Unfortunately, I don't seem to be able to use your skills. So, you don't have to worry about what I'm going to do to you, I'm not that good at dealing with a guy with superpowers from such a distance. β
Su Xiaoxiao's brows were furrowed, but the familiar face was so unfamiliar at this moment, for some reason, the man in front of her, his gaze always gave her an extremely dangerous feeling, just being stared at by him for a while, she began to feel uncomfortable.
"What about the kid, who are you, what did you do to him?" The red number matrix in Su Xiaoxiao's eyes still did not fade, which meant that she did not trust what this man said.
"It seems that you won't answer my question until you figure out my business?" Su An covered his mouth and snorted, then reached out to the table.
"What are you going to do!" The red light in his right eye was even stronger, and Su Xiaoxiao keenly observed all his movements, and became more alert after Su An put his hand on the table.
"Don't worry, I'm just getting a toothpick. By the way, Miss Su, I personally really don't recommend you to use that backtracking skill to get into my brain. For one, I'm afraid that the fear that arises from my subconscious mind is beyond your control. Second, trust me, you won't be as safe as you are now in a place where no one is around. β
The flat tone set off a storm in Su Xiaoxin's heart, could it be that this person in front of him could read minds?
She exhaled a long breath, pretending to be casual, and said tentatively, "You haven't eaten again, what are you doing with a toothpick?"
"Smack-"
Su An snapped his fingers. "Oh, don't you know a napkin, but you know what a toothpick does?"
"I..."
"You don't have to explain it to me, I know it's probably a kind of cute behavior to enhance the feelings of adolescent boys and girls. β
"Your biggest mistake is that you shouldn't pretend to have selective amnesia, even if you forget some common sense, you should remember everything about the same type of object. In this way, you have too many things to disguise. β
"Besides, this level of lies can be seen even by the original little ghost. β
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the man's tepid emotions, and a nameless fire rose in her heart: "I didn't pretend to have amnesia! I just really don't remember what the outside world is like! and..."
Su An snatched her words again: "Ah, this little ghost also understands this, that's why he is used to you bringing you paper." You want to gain his favor quickly, and thus get an indescribable, pampering feeling?"
"Bang!"
Su An slapped the table suddenly, startling Su Xiaoxiao.
"So, let's talk about what he doesn't know now!"
"What is the source of your need for this sense of pampering?"
"You've said that the world out there scares you. So, what is it that makes you feel this strong desire to be protected and not even go out for more than two months?"
Su Xiaoxiao's eyes struggled, she lowered her head: "What I can remember... There are also very few. β
"Tell me, are there any other Adepts?"
She was stunned for a moment: "You even guessed this..."
Su An recalled the scene of "himself" using his abilities again and again. Then he asked another question, but this time, the question in his tone was rarely much more questioning.
"The Adeptus is after you?"
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head: "I don't know, but my intuition tells me to stay away from them." That's all I can remember, I won't tell you before... I didn't tell him because I was afraid..."
"I'm afraid this kid will throw you away. β
This feeling of being spoken first every time he said something was very uncomfortable, but Su Xiaoxiao nodded politely.
"Really. Su An put away the seriousness on his face and showed a look of indifference. "It's good to tell this kid that this is not good, I thought you were sent by those people, I knew it was like this, I wouldn't have come out to join in the fun. β
"The guys?"
Su An diverted the topic: "Miss Su, it's not important. β
Su Xiaoxiao was dissatisfied: "It sounds so weird." β
βWhatever.β
"You... Or will he not blame me?"
Su An suddenly flicked his fingertips, and the toothpick he had just held in his hand flew out quickly, and the whole one pierced through the camera in the corner. I just don't know if the SD card where the video is stored has been damaged, and whether it will leave the weird changes in Su Xiaoxiao's pupils just now.
"According to that kid, didn't you save him many times? It's just a little thing, he won't care. β
Looking at the man's fancy operation, coupled with the fact that the other party took the initiative in the whole conversation, Su Xiaoxiao became more and more puzzled, what is hidden in Su An's body?
All she knew was that she had to protect Suan.
"It's time for you to answer my question. Su Xiaoxiao's tone was unmistakable.
Su An's eyes were condensed in the dark night outside the window, as if he was recalling something.
After a long time, he squeezed out a smile: "I am him, he is me, so I will not harm you, let alone him." β
"Split personality?"
Su An pursed his lips: "There are always some things in this world that can't be explained by science, aren't they? β
"But..."
"Don't be!"
"Let me answer your initial question. β
"This kid hasn't eaten for half a day because he's been thinking about the man he killed with his superpowers this morning. β
Su Xiaoxiao hesitated: "But he said he had figured it out..."
Su An interrupted her: "This at least proves that he is far less optimistic than he seems, right? In fact, most of the time, he is the one who silently takes responsibility." β
"This kind of person is often the stupidest kind. Su An said in a strange way, not knowing what he wanted to express.
Su Xiaoxiao pursed her lips: "What is he struggling with?"
Su An picked up the vinegar bottle, poured a few drops into the bowl, and said by the way: "The man who died today once killed a girl in the same class twenty years ago. β
"Coincidentally, this girl just strangled her mother the day before she died!"
Su Xiaoxiao frowned: "In other words, Su An killed a man, a man killed a girl, and a girl killed her mother?"
"It's just a coincidence, isn't it?"
didn't pick up Su Xiaoxiao's words, Su An just continued to narrate his words: "The police found a diary in the girl's belongings. β
"For the sake of time, I won't go into the details of the diary. β
"The girl's parents were all alive before, but the contents of the diary were all related to her mother only. β
Su Xiaoxiao guessed: "Maybe it's just that she doesn't like her father." β
Su An lifted his glasses: "This kind of reaction is not in line with human nature. β
"A normal person, as long as he is still in the scope of mental normality, when he kills his loved ones who get along day and night, the first thing that comes to mind must be the corresponding other. β
Su Xiaoxiaoliu's eyebrows furrowed, and she didn't seem to agree with Su An's statement.
"You don't have a similar experience, how do you know what she was thinking at the time, maybe..."
"Hmph. β
Contemptuous laughter rang out again.
"How do you know that I don't have a similar experience?"
Su Xiaoxiao froze in place for an instant, she looked at the weird smile on Su An's face, and there was a rare trace of horror on her cold face.
Su An shrugged: "Anyway, you just need to know the answer I told you." β
Su Xiaoxiao took a breath: "What the hell are you, are you human..."
"This sentence also applies to you, right? Sue, small, small?"
After a pause, Su Xiaoxiao's eyes suddenly turned cold again, and she looked at Su An at her, and for a while, the atmosphere became tense.
"Su An never dared to talk to me like that. β
The red light suddenly rose, and the temperature of the surrounding environment suddenly and strangely increased sharply. The data in Su Xiaoxiao's right eye changed violently at an unprecedented speed, and in an instant, all the surrounding pictures were frozen in place, which made people's hearts palpitate.
Except for the two of them, all of them became motionless.
In a state of absolute stoppage, there is such a thing as deathly silence.
"Cut, hahahaha, ahahahahaha. β
"Miss Su's strength is really unfathomable. β
Su An suddenly retracted his gaze and began to laugh inexplicably, his movements became more and more exaggerated, appearing on a fifteen-year-old boy, like a real madman.
His hands were on his belly, his glasses were dropped on the table by his exaggerated facial movements, and his laughter gradually turned into heart-rending and exaggerated.
"You really still care about this matter, ha, no, I'm sorry, ahaha, let's, let me take a break..."
Su Xiaoxiao's face was expressionless, a strange bright red light kept blooming from her right eye, and she tilted her head, as if she was silently mocking the funny madman in front of her. Her long hair was blown away by the waves of air from below, her cold face remained motionless, she stretched out her slender fingers and pointed at the table, her flawless features outlined her delicate cheeks, and at this moment, the two people sitting opposite each other looked like a world apart, and she was like a real angel, about to judge the demons from hell.
Do angels swear, probably... Yes, right?
"get back to me, and then come out to me with that kid. β
The laughter stopped abruptly, Su An's expression returned to normal in a second, and he shrugged his shoulders: "That's right, this is your original character, pretending not to know about the cuteness of napkins,
I have to give it to a girl like Xia Ran. You have a cold demeanor all over your body, and it's not appropriate to make it like this. β
"I want to see how long your obnoxious laughter lasts. β
"Tsk, a pretty goddess wouldn't say such a thing. β
"Bang-"
The glass in front of Su An, which was originally filled with a toothpick, suddenly shattered out of thin air, and in the next second, a cold voice without emotion sounded.
"Speak in that tone again, and you're waiting to end up with it. β
