Chapter 10: Black Engraving

Got it?!

With the disappearance of the petite figure, the white light from behind the chase also disappeared suddenly, and the computer room fell into darkness again, leaving only the emergency lights in the corridor outside the computer room still faintly shining.

Jiang Yao in the dark couldn't confirm the opponent's situation, but it was rare to get a little gap, so when would he wait if he didn't run at this time?

Time...... It's running out of time!

Jiang Yao, who was lucky enough to escape, couldn't rejoice, and seeing that the countdown on his watch had entered the last 60 seconds, Jiang Yao felt more and more anxious, and the black mark on his collarbone seemed to burn even more.

It hurts! This mark ...... What the hell is going on!?

The trance caused by the severe pain made Jiang Yao's eyes blur for a moment, and the fire staircase downward in his eyes suddenly became whirling, and Jiang Yao stepped on the air and rolled straight down the stairs under the distraction.

"Bang ——!"

A loud bang suddenly exploded, and the debris of the cement staircase shook all over the ground in an instant, but it was not Jiang Yao who rolled down that caused this result, but the hard-falling ceiling above the stairs.

I have to say that Jiang Yao is really a blessing in disguise, the ceiling that fell happened to smash where he was just now, if it wasn't for the fact that he just lost his mind and rolled down, I'm afraid it would be impossible to escape;

I'll go, the ghost won't go away!

Jiang Yao sighed in his heart, but he could only limp and drag his injured leg to continue to flee for his life, to be honest, instead of dealing with this almost non-human monster, he would rather face those living security guards, but then again, there was such a big commotion upstairs, and the security guards below didn't even come to check, which was fortunate or unfortunate for Jiang Yao.

30 seconds!

The activation of the anti-theft system has entered the final countdown, and Jiang Yao finally came to the ground floor in an embarrassed escape, but the bad thing is that the deadly white light also followed the appearance of the girl's figure, and attacked Jiang Yao frantically again, and the offensive even became more and more violent.

It's just a little bit ...... It's time to get out!

Looking at the exit that was close at hand, Jiang Yao's spirit was suddenly shocked, according to the previous performance of the figure, Jiang Yao speculated that this person did not dare to show up in public, that is to say, as long as he could escape to the street, then Jiang Yao would be able to escape this pursuit.

But the cruel reality always comes so timely, just when Jiang Yao ignited hope, he suddenly saw a flash of white light in front of him, only to hear a loud "bang", the ceiling above the exit collapsed under the deliberate blow of the white light, Jiang Yao, who couldn't dodge, was suddenly shocked and flew out, and when he got up again to look at the exit, he saw that the intended way out had been tightly blocked by rubble.

Hope suddenly turned to despair.

"Tick-"

The countdown finally came to an end, and the piercing alarm suddenly overwhelmed, accompanied by a "click" sound, and the iron fences blocked the entrances and exits of the building in an instant, and at the same time, the figure of the petite girl who had always been hidden in the dark appeared in front of Jiang Yao again, this time, Jiang Yao finally saw the other party's appearance clearly.

It was a thin child, with short yellow doll hair and pale skin showing the other party's malnutrition, the yellowed white dress was wrinkled, and there was a strange feeling of being splashed with blood against the mottled red light of vigilance, and her large, godless eyes stared at Jiang Yao indifferently, empty and without any emotion, like an inanimate doll.

Jiang Yao looked at the other party nervously, recalling in his mind when he had sinned against this aunt in the past, causing the other party to constantly kill himself, but unfortunately he didn't find any memory of that face, and the other party obviously didn't intend to give him any respite.

"Bang!!"

The viper-like white light burst out from the girl's palm again, but it did not attack Jiang Yao's vital point, but hit Jiang Yao's already injured legs and feet like a retaliation.

"Hmm...... Ahhh

Jiang Yao clutched his chest and fell to the ground, and the girl in front of him had already floated in, and the petite figure seemed to have become an insurmountable huge obstacle in Jiang Yao's eyes, blocking all his ways of life.

"You...... Who the hell ......?"

Jiang Yao's question was not answered, and in his blurred vision, he only saw the girl raising her hand at him expressionlessly, and the white light gradually bloomed from the girl's hand, and then, it suddenly dimmed.

Jiang Yao closed his eyes, shook his head, and waited until he looked at the other party again, only to find that the empty eyes of the girl in front of him were staring at his neckline at this time, and the expression on the other party's face, which was as unchanged as a puppet, actually faintly made a trace of waves under the guard light of light and shadow.

That's fear.

Jiang Yao was stunned for a moment, he lowered his head and followed the other party's gaze to his neckline, but found that the black mark on his collarbone was emitting bursts of ominous black light at this time.

“……”

The girl stared at the black mark on Jiang Yao's body, her lips seemed to move slightly, and what surprised Jiang Yao was that as the black light of the engraving became more and more abundant, the fear on the other party's face became more and more obvious, only to see that the girl kept retreating, looking around vigilantly, and finally left Jiang Yao directly, disappeared into the darkness in a flash, and disappeared.

"Tick-tick-tick-"

The sound of burglar sirens still pervades the surroundings, especially in the quiet of the building, but then it is followed by the whistling of police cars from far and near outside, and it is clear that the police have heard the news.

Jiang Yao, who had survived the catastrophe, came back to his senses, although he didn't know what had happened before, but now was not the time to hesitate, so he immediately gritted his teeth and got up and rushed to the nearest side window to him. The glass of the partial window had been shattered in the previous conflict, and now the only way to escape from this place was the iron bars that were barricaded in front of the window.

"Quick...... Open it up!"

Perhaps it was the potential to explode at a critical moment, Jiang Yao felt that the energy stirred up in his body began to flow rapidly in his body and wrapped his hands, and even the injured legs and feet ignored the pain in that momentary outburst, and with a burst of messy footsteps in the hall on the ground floor, the police who finally heard the news saw only a mess at the scene, and a side window that had been stripped off the iron fence and swayed gently in the cold wind.

……

"Tsk, it's not a coincidence. ”

A low male voice sounded faintly, and in the Qiushui Group building, which was constantly pouring into the police, two ghostly figures flashed silently in the dark corner, looking at the direction of Jiang Yao's escape, and sighed secretly.

"Yes, if it weren't for the chaos of these people, this time, neither of them would have been able to escape. Another voice rang out, and it sounded like regret, but it couldn't hide its excitement.

"But I really didn't expect that I was just investigating the situation, but I accidentally bumped into a "big fish". The scourge that caused the mutation of the "Book of Life and Death" ten years ago has finally been found by us. ”

"Hmph, one is a puppet who is forced to stay in the world, and the other is the real "living dead", neither of which is an existence that should remain in the world...... Let's go, it's time for us to make a move. ”

The building that had been destroyed fell into a cacophony of sirens that came one after another, and the two shadows that watched everything in the shadows were long gone.

-------------------------

"Smack......

A thick stack of reports was thrown on the desk, and the middle-aged man in the dark blue uniform behind the desk stared at the red-haired man in front of him expressionlessly, reaching out and pushing the monocle on his face.

"Explain. ”

"What's there to explain, haven't all your people checked so carefully?" said the red-haired man with a smile as he picked up the report on the table, flipped through two pages at random, and said.

"Hehe, that's pretty light. The middle-aged man smiled slightly, but his words were unceremoniously. "Putting aside the matter of the West District villa before, this time the Qiushui Group not only had its server hacked overnight, but even the building was about to be demolished, do you know how much effort it took me to settle this matter?"

"Oh, don't be angry, don't you just deal with this kind of thing~" The red-haired man snorted and threw the report back on the table.

"I'm not here to wipe your ass, if it weren't for the fact that you didn't take a good look at that kid, it wouldn't have caused the current situation, and ......" The middle-aged man said and waved his hand, and a three-dimensional video screen was suddenly displayed in the middle of the table, and the man in the picture was Jiang Yao.

This is a surveillance video, and the location is the Qiushui Group building on the day of the accident. Jiang Yao in the video seemed to be struggling to hold the window, and then saw his hands flashing with purple light, and the solid iron fence was completely cut off by him like dirt, and Jiang Yao immediately fled.

"You didn't report it before, but you gave him the mana. The middle-aged man put away his smile and said seriously. "Did you know that doing it rashly could kill him? ”

"If I hadn't given him mana in that situation, he would have hung up a long time ago. Besides, if you hadn't done that, you wouldn't have been able to recognize his physique, would you?" the red-haired man glanced at Jiang Yao in the video and said with a smile. "After so many years, you should be happy to finally find a suitable one. ”

"Whether it's really suitable depends on his performance, but until then, whether that kid will live or not is another matter. Hongyuan, show him that picture. ”

The middle-aged man gestured to the side as he spoke, and a beautiful woman with red lips and black hair and a fluttering red dress suddenly appeared next to the originally empty desk. I saw the woman known as "Hongyuan" nodding slightly at the middle-aged man, and then stretched out her hand to point to the video screen in the air on the desktop.

The looping video was suddenly surrounded by a faint halo, and the figure outside the camera that was originally hidden by the darkness was gradually revealed in that halo, and the moment he saw the two figures in the dark, the indifferent expression on the red-haired man's face suddenly became solemn.

"They were actually targeting...... red-haired man looked at the two figures flashing in the video, and whispered to himself.

"It seems that 'that rumor' from 10 years ago is not groundless, and if this matter is not handled properly, I am afraid it will become quite tricky. The middle-aged man crossed his fingers and looked at the red-haired man and said. "No matter what you say this time, I can't let him go any longer. ”

“…… Well, he's going to be in trouble if he goes on like this. The red-haired man sighed and stood up. "I'll bring those guys back before they get him. ”

"Don't mess it up this time. ”

"Hehe, who do you think I am. ”

The red-haired man smiled calmly at the middle-aged man, then turned around and disappeared.
