Chapter 37: Calm down
Xu Xiaoming, who was at 8:37, was a little surprised to be honest, but the object of his surprise was the new mission released by the system, not the fact that the Count of Monte Cristo appeared in front of him.
The former was really beyond his expectations, he originally thought that it would be another "simple" containment mission, but he never expected that the mission would require the research institute to eliminate Dantès's anomaly, and judging from the information revealed by the mission punishment, whether it is this mission or Edmund Dantès in front of him, there are unusual things hidden behind it! As for the latter, he had been on guard before he came here.
Or rather, he would have come here early in the morning just to meet this guy in front of him. And this stems from what Du Weiyan said to him yesterday:
"I suspect that Edmond Dantès has the ability to hide his identity, otherwise with the resources at the disposal of the Institute, it would be impossible to find him until now."
"Compared to the Institute, we are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of strength, resources, and technology, and we only have one absolute advantage in the matter of capturing the Count of Monte Cristo, and that is that we know where his anomalous items come from. After being inspected by the research institute, he lost a lot of stock, and if he wants to maintain his combat effectiveness, he will definitely come back to purchase it again. In this way, we just have to wait for the rabbit. ”
However, if he is smart enough, he may be able to guess where exactly he has revealed his identity. Be absolutely wary of us, and be careful if you see someone entering that alley, everyone could be his incarnation! Young and old! ”
"Finally, you'll go to the vending machine tomorrow, and I have a hunch that you might meet him...... No, if you go, you'll meet him. ”
- How did Du Weiyan come to this conclusion?! Is he a detective or a predictor of the future?
Xu Xiaoming finished his recollection, and after reasonably questioning Du Weiyan's ability to supernatural reasoning, he refocused his attention on Tang Taisi in front of him, paused for a moment and then chuckled and said: "Introduce yourself, my name is Xu Xiaoming, and I have no grudge or grudge against Lord Earl, but I accidentally found that you seem to have gotten a lot of very dangerous things from that vending machine, so I called the police anonymously by the way." Still, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”
Although he seems to be at ease on the surface, but in fact he has not relaxed his vigilance against the Count of Monte Cristo, Xu Xiaoming still maintains the posture of holding the knife in his hand, holding the ripper's blade tightly in his hand, the simulated personality of the ripper Jack sealed by this dagger is wantonly venting his malice in his brain, but Xu Xiaoming, who is protected by the system, will not be swallowed by this malice like its previous masters, but uses this personality in turn, Got the fighting ability above the level and the precision of the surgeon.
With the Ripper's Blade in his hand, he may not be able to compare to the existence of being completely possessed by Jack the Ripper, and he is far inferior to the freak of Miss Beater, but he is much stronger than the average person!
Tang Qide frowned, he didn't pay attention to Xu Xiaoming's seemingly polite greeting, he was a very cautious person, since Xu Xiaoming walked into the alley, he didn't relax his vigilance against him, even if he tricked Xu Xiaoming out of the alley, after watching him honestly "hit", he didn't relax his vigilance, but hid in the alley and waited for the other party to sneak attack! It's a pity that this sneak attack ended in failure, and the other party dodged that blow by relying on his body alone, this kind of body method is almost not something that normal people can have, even Tang Qide, who has been out for many years and has seen a lot of knowledge, has never seen a human being as weird as the body method Xu Xiaoming just showed!
- But when he took the initiative to talk to me, he must be stalling for time!
Tang Qide realized this very clearly, so he reached out and touched the backpack behind him without hesitation!
"Not good!" Xu Xiaoming's reaction was also extremely fast, seeing his right hand touching behind him, he knew what the other party was thinking, he stepped on it, the dagger in his hand turned to a reverse grip, and a ghostly acceleration narrowed the distance between himself and Tang Qide, and when he raised it, he kicked Tang Qide's right hand to touch the backpack!
"Ahh Tang Qide exhaled a short tone word in pain, and his right hand was kicked away uncontrollably, but his left hand that didn't touch the backpack took out a piece of chewing gum from his jacket pocket, and without hesitation, opened its purple package, took out a piece and stuffed it into his mouth without caring about tearing the skin! Then, I saw that his face suddenly changed into weird scales, as if he had suddenly changed from a human to a highly poisonous lizard, and suddenly opened his bloody mouth at Xu Xiaoming: "Apo! ”
"Not good!" Xu Xiaoming's face changed suddenly, and in the close distance, he clearly saw a mouthful of purple liquid being spit out of his mouth by Tang Qide and rushing towards him. He didn't even have to think to know what the hell this purple liquid was—what could it be but venom?!
Jack the Ripper's combat experience turned into his instinct and drove his body to move, Xu Xiaoming did not hesitate to lie on the ground and roll, and at the same time used all his strength to kick the wall next to him with both feet! With the help of this kick, he dodged most of the venom at the last moment, and only a small part splashed on his coat, and quickly corroded the not very thick clothes. Xu Xiaoming, who got up quickly, didn't care about taking off his clothes, looked at Tang Qide for the first time, and found that his face had changed back to its original appearance, but before Xu Xiaoming could breathe a sigh of relief, he found that the backpack had been adjusted to his chest, so that he could take out a new weapon from the bag at any time.
"Hell!"
Xu Xiaoming's face was extremely ugly, he took off his coat that had been corrupted for most of it, and once again let go of his second personality and physical instincts, threw himself into the air with all his strength to get close to Tang Qide, and stabbed him at the throat with a dagger!
This is the first time Xu Xiaoming has made a death hand to a human being, but unexpectedly there are no unnecessary mood swings, maybe because of the second personality from Jack the Ripper, he only feels that he is extremely calm now, every muscle in his body is mobilized extremely smoothly, and every potential is squeezed to the limit!
He strode forward!
- It's not that difficult, I've already experienced Jack's murder with a black dahlias, but it's just a cut throat and a disembowelment, and it's not like I haven't done it before, and everyone knows how much mess that guy has in that backpack, I can't let it ...... Replay. Well? Let...... What the? What reenactment?
There was a momentary hesitation in Xu Xiaoming's heart.
