Volume 1 Chapter 2 Huo Mingqu
"The man is dead. Xue Aoyuan sighed. He walked to the entrance of the alley and lit a cigarette.
The weather was very cloudy, some people said that Xuancheng was either raining or cloudy, and it was indeed the case, the sky was low and falling, and the clouds were heavy, as if a heavy rain was brewing. The sky was dark, like a dirty rag, and so was this alley, which stretched like a rag under the same colored sky. Between the tallest building in Xuanchengβββ the fourteen-story Welcome Hotel and the dilapidated roofs, the alley is a place where wealth and poverty meet, the rich disdain it, and the poor dare not reach it. The alley was very narrow, but it was only one person wide, and that person died in the alley, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth before he died, which was extremely weird.
"It's a new medicine that we've never seen before. Cheng Weifeng followed behind Xue Aoyuan and said. "Maybe it's a new ghost development. β
"Now there are fewer pure-blooded anomalies, this person is a mixed-race supernatural, the ability is to control small insects, the profession is a chemistry teacher, and he doesn't do things for the family. Du Jiuzhou slid his phone, and his voice was faint. "That's why he bought medicine, a person with low ability like him is not noticed by the family. β
"Medicine can enhance people's abilities, but if you overdose, different people will react differently, some people will go crazy, some people will die, this person will not laugh wildly. Du Jiuzhou suddenly smiled.
"Probably, yes. Cheng Weifeng sighed.
"Anyway, this shows that there is a new medicine flowing into Xuancheng. Xue Aoyuan's fingers were slender and thin, like bamboo, and he frowned slightly as he held pale yellow tobacco in his hand, and the smoke swirled between his fingers.
"The problem is that we can't find Huo Minglu at all. Du Jiuzhou said.
"Nine boats. Cheng Weifeng pondered for a moment and said, "First check where this person has been and who he has seen." β
"No need. Xiao Chen suddenly spoke.
"Do you have a way?" asked Du Jiuzhou.
"It's useless to check, Huo Mingqu won't be discovered. Xiao Chen frowned slightly. He stood up and walked over to the corpse, where he drew his short knife and slashed the corpse's arm, creating an extremely strange pattern on the ground with black-red blood.
"What's that?" Du Jiuzhou asked.
"It's a pattern of ghost organization contact. Xiao Chen stood up, his voice faint.
"How do you know?" asked Cheng Weifeng.
"I just know. Xiao Chen was silent for a moment, his voice was a little low, his facial features were hidden in the darkness of the alley, and he couldn't see clearly.
Xue Aoyuan turned his head, and through the swirling smoke, his gaze instantly became cold and hard.
"We'll wait here tonight and maybe catch him. Xiao Chen turned around and walked out.
The night came quietly, the rain didn't know when it started, the raindrops fell on the dilapidated canopy of the alley, making a popping sound, Xiao Chen was wrapped in a black hooded raincoat, squatting on the side on the low houses around the alley, he squatted very carefully, otherwise he would fall from the dilapidated roof. The rain ran down his hat to his eyes.
"How is it?" Du Jiuzhou's voice came from the earphones.
"Please, you've asked more than a dozen times. Xiao Chen couldn't help but complain.
"Are you drawing correctly?" Du Jiuzhou was on the roof of the Welcome Hotel, bored with broken thoughts.
"How could he know the contact information of the ghost?" Suddenly, Cheng Weifeng turned his head and said to Xue Aoyuan.
"People are teachers, so they know a lot. Du Jiuzhou said with a smile.
"It's not that simple. Xue Aoyuan frowned slightly, he stretched out the lighter in front of his eyes, and after making a fire several times, it was extinguished by the rain, he simply threw the lighter and bit a wet tobacco.
"I sent his information, Xiao Chen has been a teacher since graduating from school, he entered the school at the age of ten, but his record before the age of ten is empty. Cheng Weifeng looked at Xue Aoyuan, his glasses were already glued with fine and dense water droplets, hiding the suspicious look in his eyes.
"Here he comes. Xiao Chen's voice suddenly came from the earphones, "Turn on the flashlight." He said.
Huo Mingqu wears a black sweatshirt, a hat, and a dark blue jacket, he is in his forties, not tall, but very capable. He walked fast, and the rain left a wet mark on his shoulders.
Suddenly, a light shot down from an extremely high place, just enveloping Huo Mingqu, Huo Mingqu squinted slightly, at this moment, the man in black jumped down, the water on his body splashed everywhere, and the short knife in his hand pierced straight to Huo Mingqu's shoulder.
Huo Mingqu reflexively stepped back, folded his hands, blocking his face, the alley was too narrow, and his back was completely against the wall.
"You are not Qin Lichuan. He blurted out.
Huo Mingqu looked at the person in front of him, he stood in the light, the rain around him exuded a cold light, and he could vaguely see his eyes, sharp as knives.
"You may have forgotten the people you killed. Xiao Chen spoke slowly.
"Who are you?" Huo Mingqu quickly calmed down.
"I remember it all for you. Xiao Chen's voice was slow, he reached out and held the beam of light, as if holding a long sword, he suddenly opened his fingers, and his light suddenly turned into countless silver needles and stabbed towards Huo Mingqu's body.
"His ability is light. Cheng Weifeng said. "A rare ability. β
"We're going down to help him now. Du Jiuzhou had already turned over and was about to jump off the tall building, but was pulled by Xue Aoyuan: "I want to see his strength." His voice was calm.
Huo Mingqu pulled out the short knife in his sleeve and tried to block the silver needles that countless lights had turned into, but when he touched the light, it seemed to be empty, he didn't panic, he suddenly turned over and jumped up, the speed was faster than the speed of those lights.
His ability is Blix.
Huo Mingqu tapped his toes on the wall and tried to jump out of the alley, because for a person whose ability is extremely fast, a narrow place is very unfavorable for combat.
The light moved, the light shot out of Xiao Chen's arms, Huo Mingqu ran out of the alley, only to feel that it was dark in front of him, and he saw a flash of cold light, and a figure suddenly appeared in the light, and he had a sharp pain in his abdomen, Xiao Chen's short knife had been inserted into his abdomen, and it did not enter the handle.
Huo Mingqu didn't care about the pain, and raised his foot to kick Xiao Chen, but only kicked to the void light.
Xiao Chen fell behind him, his arm caught in his neck, and another short knife was inserted into his right arm again.
"He can melt himself into the light, but he didn't expect that he has reached this realm. Becomes one with your abilities. Cheng Weifeng pushed his eyes. "He's really amazing. β
"He doesn't seem to want to kill his opponent anytime soon. Xue Aoyuan frowned slightly.
