Chapter 012: Returning Home and Secret Meeting
Shi Songming tried to give Kong Feng emergency treatment while chatting with him to distract him. This is an extension of the first ability, I have heard the master mention it, but I have never had the opportunity to experiment. This time, I had no choice but to use Kong Feng as a guinea pig.
"I just saw your posture of blocking the door, you are really heroic and domineering. β
"Oh, maybe. Kong Feng replied grinningly. The lower back injury is painful and itchy, which is more heart-scratching than a simple severe pain.
"To tell you the truth, I'm really curious where you got the courage to be a girlfriend?"
"Courage? I don't know, but now that I think about it, I experience a movie line. There is a battlefield that you will run away from with fear. But if you do, you will plead with the gods countless times for the rest of your life to return to this moment and make a brave choice. I just don't want to regret it. Other than that...... Forget it"
Kong Feng, who had been on the verge of life and death, wanted to say the idea of 'not being able to face Xiaofeng', but after all, he still wanted to stop talking.
Shi Songming couldn't help but be a little more surprised at his ability after confirming that the several blood holes in Kong Feng's back had all healed and stopped bleeding. Then I took Xiaofeng's appendectomy wound to test, and this time the effect was better.
And Kong Feng and Xiaofeng, who had experienced some hardships, were not closely embraced. The former lowered his head to hide his complicated expression, and the latter once again burst into tears and grabbed the former's hand. Things are sometimes so strange that those who have the courage to fight to the death for their loved ones may not have the courage to accept their unbearable past.
Shi Songming noticed that the atmosphere was a little strange, but he didn't have so many exquisite thoughts and subtleties, and after accepting the gratitude of the two, he slowly retreated. And turned his head and swept over the group of kidnappers who were either unconscious or beaten unconscious, and in the spirit of humanitarianism, they still did a basic examination, and confirmed that there was no hindrance, so they were all tied up.
So far. The sound of sirens was faintly remembered in the distance. Shi Songming felt that the matter had ended perfectly, but he didn't want to waste time with Jing Cha, so he grabbed the yellow-haired gangster who was hiding in the corner and was about to teleport away.
A few minutes later, Shi Songming learned the usual compositional routines in film and television dramas, and teleported to the top of the TV tower to overlook the city that he was determined to protect. It's a pity that in addition to feeling that the wind is a little strong, it does not inspire additional ambition, but finds a problem.
The city has a population of tens of millions, and there are people in need almost all the time. I take a few hours a day to be a hero, even if I pick a big case, it's a drop in the bucket.
In addition, it is difficult to find a needle in a haystack in the first place and rescue the problem, and it is difficult to even remediate it afterwards. It's just that whoever meets is counted, and the invisible self-confessed unlucky is not a qualified city guardian.
While I was thinking about what to do, my mobile phone rang. Shi Songming's face changed as soon as he answered. The mother called and explained that his father's cataract condition was worse, and he also burned his arm, and he was on his way to the hospital, so he asked Shi Songming to go back to his hometown to have a look.
Shi Songming is not a native of the magic capital, and he went to school in the magic capital because of a relationship. When he was in junior high school, the debt collector made a big fuss at school, which not only made Shi Songming take a year off from school, but also made Shi Songming's father lose his job. After that, Shi Songming lived in high school, and his parents returned to their hometown. It was a small town about seventy kilometers away from the magic capital, and it took an hour's drive to add a country road to the highway. Long-distance buses and trains are only more time-consuming.
Shi Songming comforted his mother a few words, and teleported back to the rental house as soon as possible, but as soon as he changed his clothes, he heard a familiar voice outside the door, which was Liu Man. Curious, I pushed open the door of the single room, but saw that the beautiful woman was directing two workers to move, and the landlord's uncle was also staring in the living room, obviously to prevent the broken furniture in the living room.
"Surprise not surprise!" Liu Man greeted him warmly.
"How do you ......?"
"I didn't expect that the house I rented was where you live, you said it was a coincidence. β
"It's a coincidence. Shi Songming squeezed out a smile and was about to go out.
"You're in a hurry? Why don't you have a late-night snack together? β
"I'm sorry, there's something going on at home. I've got to go back. β
Liu Man immediately withdrew his smile and asked eagerly, "What's wrong with my uncle and aunt?"
"My dad is sick. Shi Songming said and began to go downstairs. I was going to hide in the shadows and just teleport away. But he didn't want Liu Man to chase after him, so he grabbed his arm.
"There is no online car-hailing in the middle of the night, and it is difficult to take a taxi, and it may even rip off customers. I'll send you back. β
"Uh...... My parents have returned to their hometown and are not in the magic capital. β
The original intention of this was not to trouble the other party, after all, the road is far away. But I didn't want Liu Man to give up.
"Then I have to send you even more, there are no taxis that will run far away at this time. Can't you still run home? This hesitation, Liu Man has already made his own opinion, and casually explained a few words to the porter, and quickly pulled Shi Songming downstairs. As if he was in a more anxious state than himself.
Of course, Liu Man couldn't be told about the original plan to teleport home, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he couldn't reveal it to his parents. If it was less than twenty minutes after the phone call, the person rushed back from the distant demon capital, what kind of association would this make the second elder. After thinking about it, Shi Songming accepted this kindness.
"Thank you so much. β
"Old classmates for many years, good friends, and now neighbors. What is not thankful. Liu Man first waved his hand, and then asked with concern: "What's wrong with my uncle?"
"For some unknown reason, the cataract suddenly worsened. I accidentally touched the kettle and burned my hand. β
Liu Man patted his chest. "It's okay, it's okay. The way you looked just now really scared me. β
In a few words, the two had already sat in an inconspicuous family car. Liu Man started to set off directly, and did not forget to comfort Shi Songming in a low voice. Until the entrance of the expressway was in sight, Liu Man came to a phone call, and he began to speak a foreign language when he answered.
Shi Songming was already apologetic, and he couldn't delay Liu Man's business, so he proposed to change the driver. In addition, his English was completely returned to the teacher after passing the fourth-level exam in his sophomore year. After so many years, I can barely make a living by reading, and my hearing is completely finished, and I can't understand what is being said on the phone.
Liu Man naturally didn't insist, parked on the side of the road, and squeezed his legs directly into the car to the co-pilot position.
Shi Songming hurriedly opened the door, went around to the driver's seat from the front, tried the feel of the wire reel and started the car, and glanced at Liu Man who answered the phone. Seeing that her expression was very serious, it was obviously not talking on the phone with an ambiguous object, but more like talking about business, and she was relieved for no reason. After passing the high-speed toll booth, he put down the phone and began to fiddle with the screen of his mobile phone. Hurriedly said: "I'm really sorry for delaying your work." β
"It's nothing, it just so happens that there is a project that needs to be evaluated, and I just dispatch it in the middle, and the results will be available soon. β
Having said that, Liu Man put on headphones, took out a pad, and completely entered the working state. Constantly reading large paragraphs of foreign text, and saying a few words and even a little arguing.
Shi Songming only glanced at the screen and concluded that it was not only English, but at least Russian and French, but not a single Chinese character. As a result, I had to drive with my head bored. However, if his foreign language skills were up to par, he would have almost been surprised that the steering wheel lost control and drove the car off the high-speed guardrail.
What Liu Man discussed was Shi Songming's chivalrous righteousness as a knife man before. It's not a fragment, but a complete process from the beginning of the Caicai brothers shouting in the dark alley to the disappearance of the little knife man when Jingcha comes forward.
And coincidentally, Shi Songming, an 'ordinary person', was inevitably involved, and Liu Man deliberately blocked the pictures and Chinese files and tested them a long time ago. After the call just now, he didn't put down his phone, but bluntly said that he fell in love with the man sitting in the driver's seat, and scolded him for being an incomprehensible elm head. Observing Shi Songming's lack of reaction, he confirmed with mixed feelings that his English proficiency was completely scumbag.
At the other end of the encrypted connection, in an office somewhere in the magic capital, video conferences are going on nervously. The screen marked with Liu Man is just an audio signal display, and the others are all gray-haired old men, with faces of various nationalities. Flowers were laid in front of the hotel, and a Caucasian man who called himself Spike sat in the center to listen to the report.
An old man in a white coat said unhurriedly, "...... Going back and forth four times in a short time, and taking three ordinary people with him. The next few spatial teleportations were also completely exhaustive. The last time it was pinpointed to the white-eyed wolf's home. To sum up, the 'space teleportation' capability is preliminarily judged to be S-level. There is not enough information at the skill level, and it is difficult to judge whether someone is pointing out or self-awakening. β
Spike is noncommittal, but looks at a white woman beside him.
The name is Scarlett, she wears a red dress, big wavy blonde hair, and a slim figure. Although the facial features are ordinary, they also show a bit of charm with the hairstyle and clothing. And his own 'spatial teleportation' ability is rated B. At this time, he was watched, slowly put down the report, and nodded reluctantly.
Spike raised an eyebrow, surprised by the strength of Knife Man, and reached out for another old man who was clearly Asian to speak. And this one has raised the original A-level to A+ in terms of 'strong flesh' ability. And judging from the unfamiliar healing wound operation, the knife man is a self-awakener. β...... One last word. Probabilistically speaking, it would have been an incredible miracle if it hadn't been for the error of our statistical model"
The black bodyguard named Logob immediately added his opinion: "Agree with Professor King's judgment. I have carefully observed the wound on Kong Feng's lower back, and I can't do that level of rapid healing. β
In fact, he has an A rating on the 'Tough Flesh' ability. And in a few days of punching in the dark alley, he has used all his strength, and faintly noticed that the other party did not. Coupled with the fact that I didn't know that my right hand was piercing, this was a misjudgment. This time, we have to admit the gap.
"It's just a tourist vacation, but I didn't expect such an unexpected gain. Spike sighed from the bottom of his heart: "With a population base of more than a billion people, it is more likely that there will be a super genius." β
Everyone in the room nodded slowly. After a brief pause, Spike continued, "That's the end of the special abilities section, cut two groups in. β
As soon as the voice fell, eight more squares appeared on the big screen, among which were either avatars or simple audio, and the meeting discussion continued. The experts in the second group apparently did not know the details, complaining that it was a waste of time to analyze the personality traits of such fictional characters that only exist in superhero movies. This kind of thing should be done by film and television drama screenwriters, not psychology experts. But for the sake of money, I did my best to write the report.
Compared to the previous unanimous praise for special abilities, the personality analysis report is less optimistic.
First of all, being a hero is obviously naΓ―ve. There is no refutation of the title of hero, and even judging from the speed of speech and attitude, I still like this title very much, which shows that the scheming is not deep. This is also very consistent with the words and deeds that followed.
Secondly, the target person is not meticulous in his thinking and is careless. I don't know if I don't notice some obvious flaws or don't want to dig into them. The questioning of clues is also a bit verbose, showing that the tracking idea is not clear, from which it can be judged that he has no experience in investigation, and it can be inferred that his real profession has nothing to do with law enforcement or the judicial system.
Again, the treatment of the wound was not perfect, and the rapid healing actually caused Kong Feng's intestines to be completely sealed. It follows from this that his real profession has nothing to do with medicine. In addition, have a certain level of knowledge of the various street locations in the magic capital, it may be a driver's profession, or have lived in the magic capital for a long time.
There is also a small detail. The subject used a false voice pronunciation, but was not proficient, and presumably deliberately concealed his identity.
"Thank you!" Spike smiled as he cut the two out.
And the rest of the people have already made a judgment on the little knife man in their hearts: a bad person who has no consciousness and simply pursues the word 'justice'.
"Man, any suggestions?" Spike asked. Although he can speak Chinese, he does not have a deep understanding of the more non-mainstream chivalrous branches of the cultural background of the country. So ask the locals for their opinions first.
"I think there should be a cooperative approach. People are stupid but powerful, and if they become friends and reach a long-term relationship, the potential benefits are huge. Taking a step back, at the very least, one should maintain basic goodwill and avoid hostility. After all, we don't have enough combat power to correspond to it now. β
"That's what I thought, too. Spike nodded slowly.
Liu Man continued: "Since the other party doesn't want to reveal his identity, let's stop the investigation of the real identity first." In addition, the two thugs should add more benefits and subtle threats to prevent them from saying something they shouldn't say, or even switch to the knife man. As for the Mr. Huang who kidnapped him, there are too many traces, and it is better to disappear forever. β
Spike looks at the woman in red again. The latter immediately stopped the task: "Wrap it around me, make sure that there is not a single hair left." β
"Don't die too weirdly, it will only make you more suspicious. Preferably a reasonable death. Liu Manyun added lightly.
"Understood. The Lady in Red nodded.
The group has a discussion about possible testing opportunities for the next step, and brings up another suspicious target, the strange woman dressed as Catwoman. It's a pity that there is too little information, and everything can only be plans and plans. When the discussion is over, Spike confirms that he has nothing to add, and simply waves his hand. "So that's all for this time, adjournment. β
Liu Man, who was far away on the highway leaving the magic capital, turned off his equipment, turned his head and smiled: "Sorry, I can't finish speaking foreign languages in the car." β
"Yes! And it's not like I'm completely incomprehensible. So it's not disrespectful. β
Liu Man's heart tightened, but he asked quietly on the surface. "Oh, how much do you understand. β
"I understood the words of, to, and the. β
With a sneer, Liu Man slapped Shi Songming's shoulder lightly. This kind of answer is obviously equivalent to not understanding anything.
