Chapter VII: Yamena
[03 days left until the end time of the mission 16:17:36......]
The countdown beats slowly on the retina, creating an oppressive and dreary atmosphere.
"Click"
A rib was forcibly aligned by Xiao Ning's groping, butt together, and the sensitive nervous system transmitted a signal of pain, making his forehead drenched in cold sweat, and his face was a little hideous.
"Click"
Another rib was aligned, and so far, Xiao Ning has repaired all seven incomplete fractured ribs on her body, including three on the left and four on the right.
Xiao Ning wiped the cold sweat on her face, and was a little glad in her heart that she had learned a few bone-setting exercises from the nurses in the welfare home, otherwise the current situation would be really difficult to deal with.
Even more fortunately, these ribs are not comminuted fractures, and there is a way to pick them up, otherwise Xiao Ning would have to give up the task and wait for the punishment of the 'city'.
After connecting the bones, Xiao Ning removed the gauze wrapped around her legs, cleaned the wound again with alcohol, applied trauma medicine, wrapped it in new gauze, and then lay down on the bed in the hotel to rest.
It's been two days since the last contact with the 'Hundred Faces', and Xiao Ning has been staying in the hotel to deal with her injuries for the past two days, never going out, and she doesn't know what the enemy is doing now.
Knock knock~
"Young man, are you up yet!"
There was a knock on the door of the room, and although it was a wooden structure, it was tough enough, but judging from the trembling arc of the door, it was enough to imagine that the person who knocked on the door was either powerful or round-shouldered.
But in fact, it was a woman in her thirties.
She is the proprietress of this hotel called Aijia, Xiao Ning was startled when she came back with blood and injuries two days ago, and wanted to call the police and report to the doctor, but was stopped by Xiao Ning.
As for how to stop it, when Xiao Ning put the knife on the neck of the screaming proprietress, the other party cooperated extremely friendly, and even agreed to buy medicine and food for Xiao Ning.
She promised Xiao Ning, as long as Xiao Ning didn't make trouble for her, she wouldn't make trouble for Xiao Ning, it was all a small business, and the most taboo was these inexplicable troubles.
It's not that Xiao Ning doesn't want to go to the hospital, it's just that it is extremely troublesome to be questioned, and the welfare home in Lingang City has already been destroyed, and his own origin and identity are not clear, so how can he withstand the investigation.
You must know that the 'Hundred Faces Man' is based in the municipal building, Xiao Ning has seen that kind of change ability, and the other party will definitely not just become a small staff member of the municipal building.
There must be a place for it at the top.
If Xiao Ning goes to the hospital, maybe the other party will receive the news immediately and bring someone to kill him directly.
Propping himself up, Xiao Ning limped to the door and opened the door.
If it was a little later, Xiao Ning was a little afraid that the door would be broken by the other party.
"Oh, young man, why shouldn't you say when you get up, look, look, this injury is not good enough, come, I'll help you to the bed." ”
There was a woman in a white cashmere coat standing at the door, her face in her thirties already had some traces of wind and frost, she smiled flatteringly, and reached out to grab Xiao Ning's arm.
Sonorous!
A sharp blade emitted a chill on the hostess's neck, and the chill made the cold hairs on her neck stand up.
"Don't do superfluous movements, I said you don't get in my way, I don't get in your way, I'll leave in three days at most. “
Xiao Ning's expression was extremely cold, but it was not cold, and her temperament was a little mild, similar to an ice lotus.
It rejects people for thousands of miles, but it does not hurt people, but it can be viewed from a distance, but it is not approachable.
"Yes, yes, I was abrupt. The proprietress sifted her body like chaff, and the medicine and soup in her hand were a little spilled on the ground.
"Come in. Putting away the Tang knife, Xiao Ning stepped aside and put the proprietress into the room, turned around and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her coldly.
The proprietress walked into the house, spread the medicine and food separately on the table, turned around and prepared to leave, next to this young man who did not look very big, it was like standing next to a sharp blade, which made people feel a little twitching in the bottom of their hearts.
"Wait!" Xiao Ning suddenly shouted to the proprietress who walked to the door.
The proprietress shook her body obviously, her face stiffened and a little pale, and she turned her head and asked, "Young man, do you have any other requirements?"
"I don't like to owe favors, if I don't go out, you can tell me if you have any troubles in these three days, and I will do my best to help you solve it within my ability. ”
Xiao Ning took a rag and slowly wiped the blade of the Tang knife, and his delicate face was reflected on the shiny blade, although there was no expression on it.
The proprietress was stunned by this, and after a while, she suddenly smiled, the paleness and stiffness on her face faded, and she said softly: "No, no, young man, you can live in peace, the typhoon is coming in the past two days, pay more attention to the doors and windows at night, it is best to strengthen them, so as not to be scratched." ”
Xiao Ning looked at her expressionlessly, rubbing Tang Dao's fingers slightly, a light knife sound sounded, the proprietress stiffened, and withdrew her fine words.
The proprietress left, different from the caution and temptation when she came, and walked generously when she left, and even the sound of closing the door was slightly heavier.
Shaking her head, Xiao Ning limped to the table, put the medicine into her backpack, picked up the rice bowl and ate it in a big gulp, the food was delicious, just like people's hearts.
After eating, Xiao Ningpan sat on the bed, recalling the picture of fighting with the 'Hundred Faces', and learned lessons and experiences from it.
Until about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the news from a small dilapidated TV in the room made Xiao Ning stop thinking, get up and walk to the window, and look out through some gaps.
People on the streets are in a hurry, white-collar workers in suits are rushing home with briefcases, and vendors have already begun to close their stalls.
A news truck was driving down the street in the distance, with a monitor and megaphone on one side, but it was too far away to hear anything.
In less than a few minutes, the street where Aijia Hotel is located was completely quiet, the merchants had already packed up their goods early, closed the doors tightly, and the street was empty.
"Category 14 Typhoon 'Yamena' is about to pass through Chaohai City today. ”
A newspaper floated from the deserted main street, and when I turned it over, it was the Shinma newspaper, and I saw that there was such a sentence printed on the headline on the head.
I don't know when the sky has been dark, and the darkness is full of yellow, which looks extremely strange and is a rare spectacle, but now no one dares to come out to appreciate it.
The strong wind blowing from the cracks of the buildings swirls between the empty streets and the dead leaves, and at some wall roots and crossings, the waste paper and fruit peels discarded by pedestrians dance in the sky.
The wind had begun to howl, dark clouds were wrapped in thunder and pressed down in the sky, and a trace of silver snakes had spread among the clouds in the dusk.
Snort!
In the room in the hotel, Xiao Ning stood at the window and looked at the street outside, listening to the violent sound caused by the wind blowing on the windowsill, with a look of expectation.
"It's finally here, then it's time to move on to the next plan!" Xiao Ning said to herself lightly.
The wind is thundering, the clouds are covering the sky, this is the best time to hide people's ears, and in such an environment, if you have enough courage and wisdom, there are many things that can be done.
In fact, when Xiao Ning first learned the news that the typhoon was about to pass through Chaohai City a few days ago, she had a rough outline of the plan in her heart, but this outline was not very clear.
Because she didn't know the specific time when the typhoon would come, Xiao Ning could only squat and wait for the rabbit.
When Xiao Ning was in Sanhua Park, he didn't have enough confidence to kill the 'Hundred Faces Man', all he did was information about it, and for this information, he almost put himself in.
Xiao Ning packed up her belongings, stuck the Tang knife behind her back, stomped her feet, stretched her chest and shoulders, and felt the tingling sensation coming from her.
"You can barely move. Xiao Ning nodded, pushed open the door and walked out.
As soon as she walked out of the room, Xiao Ning saw more than a dozen people crowded in the lobby of the hotel, everyone was ruffian, and many of them were wearing studs and tattoos.
"Bastard, there are so many of you, fifty dollars is not enough. The proprietress in a white cashmere coat was sitting at the window and said with a resentful expression.
"Boss, this is your fault, they are all neighbors of Anshi Street, our Wolf Gang usually helps you with this small shop, now I borrow you to live here for one night, avoid a typhoon, fifty yuan is a lot." ”
"That's it, boss, a lot!"
"Enough!"
The first young man with a nose nail looked frivolous, lying on the counter of the window, looking at the charming proprietress in front of him, his eyes were full of inexplicable meaning.
His men followed suit.
"You fart, the usual protection fee is not less, last time there was a guest to make trouble, the result is not that I paid for it myself, not only did you not do anything, but you also came to me afterwards to collect what affect the harmony of the neighborhood, they are a group of vultures that eat people and don't spit out bones, vultures!"
The face of the proprietress was blue and white for a while, it was obvious that she was angry, she was usually bullied, but today it was even more excessive, more than a dozen people wanted to live in a luxury room, but she only gave fifty yuan, which was purely to find trouble and bully people.
"You can't say that, boss, that's what you call ..... What are you doing, boy?"
The young man with a nose nail was about to find a random reason to prevaricate back, when he suddenly saw a handsome young man beside him, and this young man was staring at him, and he couldn't help but be startled.
"You ......" Xiao Ning said coldly, the words on the tip of her tongue dragged on for a long time.
"It's in the way. ”
The young man with the nose nail was listening carefully to what the young man in front of him was about to say, but he didn't expect such a sentence to come out, and suddenly some inexplicable ghost fire rose.
"Well, that's right, it's in your way, and then?" said the nastured young man with his eyes slightly closed, and said in a cold voice.
"Young man, don't fight with this group of people, they are all members of the surrounding gangs, be ruthless, go back to the room quickly. When the proprietress saw Xiao Ning, she was a little happy at first, but when she heard that the words of the young man with nasal nails were wrong, she hurriedly persuaded her.
"I don't really like people getting in my way. Xiao Ning touched her nose and said slowly.
"So what?" said the young man's tone grew colder.
"Can you please get out of the way?"
Hearing this, the young man with a nasal nail was stunned, turned the corners of his mouth up, and sneered: "It's okay to get out of the way, but buddy is big and occupies a wide area, so I can only give up a place for you from here." With that, he opened his legs and exposed the crotch.
Xiao Ning didn't seem to hear the words of the young man with the nose nail, and didn't care about his movements, just stretched out his hand and pushed him, and was about to walk out directly.
"I *****. ”
