Chapter 112: for Tat (16)
"It's impossible to find me if you look around," the cold electronic voice tried to simulate a playful tone, "I just want to be friends with you, and containment of the 'beast'." Isn't your goal also to complete the task? ”
"I don't need to be friends with a guy who hides his head and tail, I have high requirements for friends," Zhuo Xuan stopped, as if an invisible pressure swept from all around, making him panic in his heart, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Where the hell is it?
If it's a trick used to conceal one's body, wouldn't there be a trigger limit?
Infinite time of invisibility, this is too cheating!
Ever since he confronted these Chosen Ones, who were also on a mission, Zhuo Xuan had always felt pressured. This was not only due to the limited number of tricks at his disposal, but also because he realized that he was fundamentally different from the other Chosen One.
Ruse.
That's right, this kind of "skill" given to the Chosen by the black watch, a magic weapon to escort the Chosen One who performs a mission for the first time, Zhuo Xuan has never had.
From Zhou Xueqiu's mouth, it is not difficult for Zhuo Xuan to know how an ordinary person awakens to become a "Chosen One". As a result, he also understood his differences better.
The black watch inherited from his father Zhuo Zhengxiang started this crazy and twisted cruel life.
"I understand, very high requirements," even after hearing Zhuo Xuan's brief and clear refusal, the other party still didn't seem to have any intention of giving up, "I believe I have this strength, if you don't believe it, you can take a look." ”
"See what?"
Zhuo Xuan instinctively sensed that something was wrong, but when he wanted to continue to ask, the call was suddenly hung up. He looked at the slowly extinguishing screen of his mobile phone, and the shock in his heart was overwhelming.
What exactly is the "strength" he is talking about?
"Zhuo Xuan!"
An exclamation, a familiar voice made Zhuo Xuan subconsciously turn around, and the delicate face with a look of joy was reflected in Zhuo Xuan's eyes.
Zhao Meng.
The joy on Zhao Meng's face was hard to hide, and she trotted to Zhuo Xuan's side, her face ruddy: "I've been looking for you for a long time." ”
"What are you looking for me to do?" Zhuo Xuan frowned.
Rather than looking for what to do, Zhuo Xuan wants to get the answer to the question - why is she here at this time?
After the mysterious phone call suddenly hung up, Zhao Meng naturally appeared here. It's like a play that has been rehearsed to perfection, where an actor leaves and an actor follows.
The lines, the position, are all in the other party's grasp.
Zhuo Xuan recalled the dreamlike experience: the pain of slowly suffocating at the end, and the bitter smell of daisies.
As a result, Zhuo Xuan's gaze changed from surprise and unconsciousness to scrutiny.
He stared carefully at the girl's stunned face, as if trying to find even the slightest flaw in it.
"Zhuo, Zhuo Xuan, what's wrong?" Zhao Meng felt this strange atmosphere, and wanted to use his strength to break this embarrassment.
However, she didn't expect that instead of dispelling her suspicions, her smile made Zhuo Xuan's suspicions deeper.
"How did you get here?" Zhuo Xuan's face was gloomy, and he asked word by word.
Zhao Meng suddenly felt a sense of strangeness. From the man in front of her, she felt strange for the first time. In the past, two unrelated people may not have crossed paths, but every time she inadvertently set her eyes on this boy, the emotion of being filled with mystery would linger in her mind.
This mystique carries some attraction that attracts this girl with an ordinary life; But today's strangeness is a kind of indifference that rejects people, with suspicion and interrogation.
Somehow, she actually had an urge to cry, the grievance was like an order that could not be explained that day, and she stood in place in a daze: "I want to invite you to dinner-"
"What I'm asking is, how did you find it?" Zhuo Xuan already felt impatient, and even he himself was a little surprised after exhaling in a slightly irritated tone.
I don't know why, the gentleness and charm that he thought he could experience again disappeared. The warmth of saying goodbye, the strength of supporting oneself firmly...... Is it from the girl in front of her, or does she remind herself of another person she hasn't been in touch with for a long time?
Being scrutinized by such a cold gaze, Zhao Meng only felt that her careful thoughts had nothing to hide, she pinched the corner of her clothes, lowered her head and whispered: "Your friend told me ......"
"Which friend?"
"A boy with a hat, I don't know his name," there was some moisture in his eyes, and Zhao Meng explained a little anxiously, "When he saw me coming out of the classroom, he took the initiative to greet me." I don't really know his ......."
"Forget it," Zhuo Xuan replied sullenly.
At this moment, irritation was already written on his face.
Don't think about it, Zhuo Xuan also knows that this is the embodiment of the "strength" of the phone owner.
Perhaps, the other party is just explaining a truth to Zhuo Xuan. He has the ability to threaten the people around Zhuo Xuan, even if Zhuo Xuan's parents have disappeared, he has a way to influence Zhou Xueqiu and Zhao Meng.
These are not friends or ordinary classmates, which is a big weakness for Zhuo Xuan. In that strange dream constructed by Doctor Hydra, in the face of Zhou Xueqiu's temptation, Zhuo Xuan chose to go without hesitation.
Although when the mission ended, Zhuo Xuan knew that the "Zhuo Xuan" in the dream was not himself. However, when he asked himself if Zhou Xueqiu was in danger, would he still be determined to rescue, the answer in his heart emerged so quickly.
Yes.
Absolutely.
In that dream, many of the qualities that were usually hidden seemed to have become invisible.
Zhuo Xuan became unexpectedly decisive and brave, while Wan Hongyu was far from being as strong as he imagined.
and Zhou Xueqiu, a sensitive and suspicious man, vividly embodied the hatred of the world in his heart, and even used such childish means to test himself.
"It's okay, you can go back first." If Zhou Xueqiu can't be found, it means that there is no one to discuss the progress of this task, and Zhuo Xuan has no intention of hanging out.
Zhao Meng pursed his lips, glanced at Zhuo Xuan with some resentment, and asked unwillingly, "What about eating......
"Eat?"
Zhuo Xuan remembered that Zhao Meng seemed to have mentioned that he wanted to invite himself to dinner just now, but at that time, because he was too concerned about the phone call, he automatically ignored the meaning of this sentence.
