Chapter 75: Saving People
Fortunately, a thick silver light shone on the wheel of life, which made Li Jie feel a burst of warmth. Under the illumination of the silver light, the purple light on Li Jie's body was slowly compressed back into his body, and his face gradually returned to its normal color.
I don't know how long it took, but the wheel of life took the silver light back. The whole body was comfortable, just like Li Jie, who had just come out of the sauna, and sat up shaking his head.
I was pleasantly surprised to find that the shattered life core actually appeared between the eyebrows again. It's just that there is a fierce energy surging in the life core, as if it wants to break through at any moment.
"You're drawing far more energy than you can handle. I'll only keep them in one place for the time being, and don't try to use them too much until you can accommodate them. ”
Li Jie looked up and saw that the light of the "body" of the life wheel suspended in mid-air was much dimmed, and it should have consumed a huge amount of energy to save him.
With guilt in his heart, Li Jie still frowned and asked carefully: "Then can I still use those abilities now?" ”
"The energy in your body is extremely unstable right now, and once the life-core bursts, that energy will instantly create a black hole and swallow everything around it. You yourself won't be spared. ”
In the past, I only heard that people would bring a magic weapon or something, but Li Jie didn't expect that one day he would actually bring a black hole that devours everything. He was dumbfounded, and said in a daze: "=one=this=read=novel=ybdu, then I can't even sleep too excitedly in the future?" ”
Suddenly remembering that he still had a lot of things to tell the life wheel, he scratched his hair in embarrassment, and honestly explained: "There are some things I haven't told you yet." I've seen both of those people from the Black Space. But I've already killed one of them, and there's only one left who calls himself a greedy wolf. He said I would soon get a fate correction mission and that he would solve me in the mission. After a pause, he spread his hands with a bitter face and said, "I have become like this now." If I run into him, I really don't even have the power to resist at all. ”
"I do feel the energy of one of the Black Shiners disappear. At the same time, you can feel the powerful energy that bursts out of your body at that time. ”
Li Jie stuck out his tongue, and it was not difficult to hear from the words of the wheel of life that everything he had was actually under his surveillance. I don't know if the wheel of life has already known that it has discovered the "Nine Gates of Truth".
If the wheel of life doesn't ask, Li Jie naturally won't take the initiative to confess the secret. deliberately pretending to be stupid and hiding with a smile: "It's all Zhang Lao Er who helped me." He gave me a spirit stone and taught me how to draw energy from it. ”
The Wheel of Life didn't ask, and continued to say another thing: "That Black Yao Man is right. I did calculate that there will be a space-time node in the near future that will have a life energy distortion. It's just that there is still some time. ”
After hearing the other party's confirmation, Li Jie was silently surprised in his heart. "The greedy wolf is right...... "Anxiously looked up at the wheel of life and said, "Then how much time do I have to return to the original state." Is it too late to catch up with that space-time node? ”
"Your original life core has been shattered, and I have reshaped this life core for you. In a short period of time, your body will not be able to accommodate the energy it needs. ”
Li Jie asked relentlessly: "How long is the short time you are talking about?" A day or a month? ”
The calm answer of the wheel of life made Li Jie lose the last trace of hope.
"At least a hundred years ......"
Li Jie cried and said, "A hundred years? Then I don't have to hope until I die. He didn't believe that the greedy wolf would wait for the day when he would regain his strength and fight with him with a stick.
"But since he said he was going to appear in the space-time node. It must be that you don't want to expend too much energy. You just have to be careful not to let him destroy that key point of twisted fate. ”
"What if he doesn't keep his promise?"
The life wheel was silent for a while, and then repeated: "Be careful." ”
Li Jie was almost about to jump up and stomp his feet, and asked with a strange face: "You can't watch me being ravaged by others, right?" If I fail, the whole world is at stake! ”
"That's the limit of what I can do."
Li Jie sighed helplessly, he understood that the wheel of life is not omnipotent. Otherwise, he wouldn't need to rely on himself to correct those space-time nodes in the world......
After returning to the bathroom from the void space, Li Jie looked in the mirror and found that his eyes were still purple. grabbed his hair in distress, so he had to take out the sunglasses given by Zhang Lao Er from his pocket and put them on.
"I've been wearing sunglasses for more than a hundred years." Looking at himself in the mirror and the blind Ah Bing on TV, Li Jie shook his head irritably. Hui Shen secretly comforted himself: no matter what, it can be regarded as picking up a life. As long as you are alive, there is still hope for everything.
Although there is a terrifying energy in the life core between the eyebrows that will evolve into a black hole at any time, Li Jie's body is already like a healthy ordinary person at this time. Silently returned to the living room sofa, lay down and looked at the ceiling with blank eyes.
Thinking of Jing Ruohan who was lying in the bedroom, Li Jie bitterly laughed at himself: he almost died in the first intimate contact, and he couldn't enjoy the life of a beauty.
After waiting worriedly for a whole day, there was not the slightest movement in Jing Ruohan's room. During this period, Li Jie also quietly opened the door and went in to check, and was pleased to see that Jing Ruohan's face had recovered a little blood, and even his breathing was much more stable.
Li Jie, who was at ease, silently closed the door and went out, he knew that once a master of Jing Ruohan's level retreated, he would not be disturbed in any way unless he came out.
The next day was the day when I agreed with Manager Wang to attend the press conference together. Li Jie, who wanted to refuse, found all kinds of excuses, but he couldn't stop Wang Shunmin from pulling his determination.
In desperation, Li Jie had to buy some steamed buns and drinks and put them on the coffee table in the living room, hoping to see Jing Ruohan when he left the customs.
The press conference was held at the Municipal Police Headquarters, and under the auspices of the leaders of the Municipal Police Bureau, reporters from dozens of newspapers, periodicals, and radio stations of all sizes in the city were invited.
As the commander-in-chief and main arresting personnel of this operation, an important part of the press conference was to listen to him introduce the details of the entire operation.
Of course, Liu Yuan would not be stupid enough to tell the real situation at that time, but just gave a detailed introduction to the deployment and preparation before the arrest, and then passed by the details of the round-up of criminals. And define the final outcome of the criminal as a desperate murderer who detonates the explosives he was carrying.
The truth is often known to only a few people. After Liu Yuan finished his report, he and the arresting team members of his team nodded and smiled at Li Jie in the audience with deep meaning.
To be honest, Li Jie's mind was not at the press conference at all. Wearing sunglasses, he sat in the front row and meditated silently. Even when the leader of the city bureau shouted his name and waited for him to come to the stage to receive the award, he still stood up under the reminder of the people around him.
Those keen journalists certainly won't let go of the fact that an ordinary person played a key role in such an important arrest, a news highlight that is enough to attract everyone's attention. They rushed to the microphone to ask Li Jie questions.
Li Jie's squeaky prevarication not only did not dampen their interest, but instead highlighted his sense of mystery even more obviously. Just as those present were shocked: how could an ordinary insurance salesman provide specific information about the murderer?
Fortunately, Wang Shunmin, who came to power with him, gave full play to his good qualities as a manager of the business department. Under the praise of his lotus flower, Li Jie has been molded into the most extraordinary employee in the company. The "100% claim rate" insurance policy signed by Li Jie, who once made him hate, also made Wang Shunmin change his words to Li Jie as a good colleague who sacrificed himself in his usual work......
The press conference lasted all morning, and after it ended, Liu Yuan took the time to grab Li Jie and wanted to invite him to a lunch.
Although Li Jie also knew Liu Yuan's intentions, he just wanted to thank him for saving his life that day. But his current situation is really not optimistic.
The purple pupils under the cover of the sunglasses have been constantly playing tricks this morning. It's like a broken wire that short-circuits every now and then. Whenever there is a short circuit, Li Jie will uncontrollably see the short-term fate trajectory of the person opposite. The distressed Li Jie is almost unable to distinguish what reality is and what is the future destiny he sees.
Don't dare to stay nostalgic outside, Li Jie is afraid that the lifecore in his brain will break at any time. forcibly refused to go home, but found that Liu Yuan followed him like a piece of kraft candy.
"It's okay to skip dinner, let's find a place to talk, shall we?" Liu Yuan finally made a final compromise.
Li Jie frowned and said, "What do we two big men have to talk about?" Don't follow me all the time, I'm not familiar with you, right? ”
was so rejected by the other party, Liu Yuan, who was the captain, laughed like a pi lai: "Hehe." After chatting, I got acquainted. ”
"I think you're trying to get something out of my mouth?"
Hearing Li Jie's words and express his heart, Liu Yuan scratched his head with frowns. After raising his eyes, he pointed to the stone bench by the pond and said, "You go over there and wait for me, I'll go buy a pack of cigarettes and come over." You should accompany me and have a casual chat. ”
Looking at the other party's dead-skinned face, Li Jie also felt helpless. I had to sigh and walk alone to the stone bench and wait.
It's almost winter, and although it's a sunny day, the sun is mild. Li Jie's strange appearance with sunglasses led the tourists passing by to point curiously.
At this moment, a plain-clothed woman suddenly walked slowly from a distance. The woman was plainly dressed and looked to be about twenty-five years old.
As soon as Li Jie's gaze touched the other party, he felt that there was a strong sadness on her face.
Seeing that the woman slowly walked to the edge of the pond and was stunned, Li Jie, who was sitting not far behind him, vaguely heard a heavy sigh from the other party's mouth.
Suddenly, I saw the woman jump, and in the blink of an eye, she had jumped into the pond.
"Not good!" Li Jie was shocked, stood up and shouted loudly around. didn't have time to think about it, rushed to the edge of the pond in a few steps, and a fierce man pierced in.
Liu Yuan, who came from a distance, also saw the situation here, and hurriedly rushed over, seeing that Li Jie had already scooped up an unconscious woman from the pond. He hurriedly bent down and reached out to pull them ashore.
The tourists who heard Li Jie's call next to them also rushed to help the woman lie on the ground.
Seeing that the woman was unconscious with her eyes closed, there was a bruised hematoma on her forehead. The experienced Liu Yuan hurriedly said: "She must have hit a stone when she fell into the water." ”
Li Jie anxiously pressed his folded hands on the other party's stomach, and after a few exertions, the woman suddenly spat out a small mouthful of water, and then coughed violently.
"How are you?" Li Jie gently patted her cheek with his hand. In a jolt, the woman slowly opened her eyes.
"Alright, alright. The man woke up. The crowd of onlookers let out a burst of joyful conversation.
When the woman who woke up and turned around came back to her senses, she saw Li Jie's face with her head bowed and approaching in her eyes. I heard an aunt's voice say, "Girl, you have to thank the young man." But he saved you. ”
"Thank you." The expression on the woman's face was numb. When he stood up, he saw a lot of people around, and hurriedly lowered his head and got out of the gap in the crowd.
In the cold wind, the soaking wet woman hugged her shoulders and walked forward lonely, step by step. The people behind him couldn't help but sigh and shake their heads when they saw it: "It may be a hard-working child." ”
Li Jie looked at her bleak back, and his heart couldn't help but ripple. The purple pupils were short-circuited at this moment, and in a trance, Li Jie's eyes quickly swept over the trajectory of the woman's upcoming fate.
Ignoring the fact that the people next to him were still complimenting him, he snatched the coat that Liu Yuan kindly handed over, and rushed over.
The woman who was in a trance suddenly felt a pressure on her shoulder, and a black jacket was draped over her. Looking up at Li Jie, he said with a little emotion: "Thank you." No need. As he spoke, he struggled to take off his jacket.
Li Jie pressed her hands hard to stop the movement. Smiled and persuaded, "Not everyone will ignore you. As long as there is a sunny day, there will be sunshine. ”
The woman stared at Li Jie dumbfounded, feeling that the other party's words were exactly in her heart. Touching the softness of her heart, she suddenly seemed to have finally met someone who understood her, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Li Jie kindly patted the other party's back with his hand, and the latter was already leaning on his shoulder and crying.
Liu Yuan, who was behind him, approached quietly, glanced at the appearance of both parties, and winked at Li Jie with a strange expression.
The woman who suppressed the crying found that there was one more person beside her, and took a closer look at Liu Yuan's shirt-wearing upper body, and knew that the coat on her body must be his. Those who wanted to return it said again and again: "Thank you." I still don't need this coat. ”
Li Jie waved his hand and said, "You wear it home first, right?" I went back and changed my clothes and it was fine. You can't walk down the road soaking wet. ”
The woman nodded: "It's okay." Then please leave your phone number. I'll give it to you when I've changed my clothes. ”
Li Jie shook his head with a smile and said, "I'll pick it up in the afternoon." You just have to remember to bring your clothes when you come out in the afternoon. ”
The woman wondered, "Why are you so sure that I will definitely go out?" ”
Li Jie smiled mysteriously and didn't explain much. Turning his head, he introduced the identity of Liu Yuan next to him, and persuaded: "This is the captain of the criminal police brigade." You don't have to suspect that we are bad people...... Anyway, I'll meet you again in the afternoon. ”
"Hmm. All right. The woman couldn't resist Li Jie's insistence, so she had to nod and say, "My name is Xue Ziyun." This is my phone number, you can call me in the afternoon. ”
Li Jie smiled and casually recorded the call. After seeing the other party leave, I heard Liu Yuan boast with a playful smile: "I didn't expect your kid to be very capable." A few words tricked a girl into crying in your arms. ”
Unexpectedly, Li Jie glared at him fiercely. didn't care about his identity as a captain at all, and sternly reproached: "Don't look down on people." She also had a bitterness in her heart and couldn't say it, otherwise she wouldn't have chosen to commit suicide by jumping into the pond. Are you kidding this, is there still humanity? ”
"Okay, I was wrong. I was wrong. "Liu Yuan didn't want to mess with this guy at all. Then he asked curiously: "Anyway, why are you so sure that she is going out in the afternoon?" I listened to your tone, as if I knew her whereabouts in the afternoon. ”
Liu Yuan's sentence is to the point. After inadvertently seeing Xue Ziyun's fate in the past two days, Li Jie sighed deeply: "Whether you believe it or not. If she is allowed to go alone, she will continue to commit suicide tomorrow. ”
"Oh?!" Liu Yuan suddenly became dumbfounded. Originally, Li Jie was surprised to know the whereabouts of a stranger, but now Li Jie actually said with such certainty that the other party would decide tomorrow. made him want to count the other party's nonsense. But when I remembered that I met Li Jie for the first time, I couldn't believe the other party, but I found out afterwards that everything was just as Li Jie said, and I had always been the self-righteous fool.
After settling down, Liu Yuan couldn't believe what he said and asked in a low voice, "You...... You can't predict the future, do you? ”
"Hehe, you can say yes, you can say no." Li Jie grinned, not caring how much shock his words would bring to the other party.
Liu Yuan glared fiercely, and his heart was full of suspicion. pondered the other party's answer carefully, and secretly wondered in his heart: From another point of view, is it similar to the meaning?
Liu Yuan, who has always been in the spirit of science first, has undergone earth-shaking changes in his head. The swarming thoughts came one after another, connecting with his previous doubts about Li Jie, Liu Yuan opened his mouth wide in surprise and looked at the other party stupidly.
Suddenly, he figured out one thing: no wonder the mysterious murderer before would do anything to lure Li Jie out!
