XXVII. Mr. Biru
When He Jingyi returned home, it was already half past twelve at noon. She walked to her mother's bedside and said happily: "Mom, this morning I paid back all the money I owed to my relatives. β
"Well, thank you uncle and uncle, don't they?"
"Thank you, I gave an extra 500 yuan to each family."
"Yes, did they ask you where the money came from?"
"When I asked, I said that I earned it by using my spare time as a tutor."
"They didn't suspect it?"
"No, you still praise me for my ability."
Mother sighed. "It stands to reason that they are all a family, and they shouldn't lie to your uncle. But it's really not appropriate for others to know about winning the lottery......"
He Jingyi thought for a while and said, "Then if we suddenly buy a beautiful big house, what will my uncle think?" I can't make that much money as a tutor. β
"I've been thinking about this question this morning, so I won't be able to hide it, and then your uncle and they will be strange." My mother said, "Jingyi, I don't want to live in a nice big house, as long as my living conditions are better than now, and I can eat and dress me every day, I am very satisfied." I thought about it carefully, or let's rent a nearby house, just two bedrooms and one living room. Buying a house will be talked about after you work. β
Hearing that her mother's request was just to "eat and dress warmly", He Jingyi felt sad, she sat on the side of the 'bed', put her arms around her mother's neck, and said softly: "Mom, I listen to you." But believe me, we really don't have to worry about money anymore. In addition to making you eat and dress well, I will also ask the best doctors to cure your illness, and then take you to travel all over the country and the world. β
The mother gently 'touched' the 'girl's head, and her eyes were filled with tears. "Okay, good girl."
He Jingyi wiped away the overflowing tears with her palm, and said to her mother: "Mom, if you rent a house, you can rent a house near Huayu Plaza." It's the city center, and it's easy to live. β
"Well, you can do it."
"I'll go to the agent to look at the house in a while, and we'll try to move in in two days."
The mother smiled: "Let's cook first, and then talk about filling your stomach!" β
He Jing walked to the humble kitchen. "Mom, it's too late to cook today, so let's eat noodles at noon."
"Okay."
He Jingyi was about to add a honeycomb coal to the stove and set up a pot to boil water, but found that the honeycomb coal had run out. Only then did she remember that she had used the last honeycomb coal this morning, and had gone out to do so many things in the morning, and she didn't have time to buy it.
He Jingyi walked out of the kitchen and spread her hands. "Honeycomb coal is gone."
"Oh, the coal seller should send some." Mother said.
"No, Mom, we're going to move to a commercial house with natural gas soon, and we won't use honeycomb coal anymore. I'll go to Aunt Zhang's house next door and borrow some. β
"I'm so embarrassed to borrow this and that from others all the time."
Aunt Zhang next door is a warm-hearted person, although the family conditions are not much better than He Jingyi's family, but she helps her mother and daughter from time to time. He Jingyi has always wanted to find an opportunity to thank Aunt Zhang, and now is the right time. She said, "Mom, let's move out quickly, why don't you give some money to Aunt Zhang to express your gratitude." β
"Yes, yes, Aunt Zhang often helps us, it should be."
"How much is appropriate?"
The mother thought for a while: "It's just 400, it's more suspicious." β
"Okay." He Jingyi took out 400 yuan from her backpack and put it on her body, and said to her mother, "Mom, wait a little longer, I borrowed honeycomb coal and came back to boil water and cook noodles." β
"Well, go ahead and say more thanks." Mother said.
After He Jingyi opened the kitchen 'door', the kitchen 'door' of Aunt Zhang's house next to her was also open. She walked over a few steps and saw Aunt Zhang frying wheat cakes in the kitchen, sniffed deeply, and said, "It's so fragrant, Aunt Zhang." β
Aunt Zhang is a chubby middle-aged 'woman' and 'woman', after she saw He Jingyi, she smiled and said, "Jingyi, have you eaten?" β
"I just can't eat it, I've run out of honeycomb coal at home, and I want to borrow two from you." He Jingyi stuck out her tongue.
"Take it, take it, use the fire tongs, take a few more!" Aunt Zhang said generously.
He Jingyi's heart was very warm, and she remembered that Aunt Zhang had always taken care of their mother and daughter. She walked over with a smile and said, "Aunt Zhang, my mother and I may be moving out recently." β
"Huh?" Aunt Zhang asked in surprise, "Where are you moving to?" β
"It's not decided yet, maybe near Huayu Plaza."
Aunt Zhang put a fried wheat cake on the plate with a spatula, stopped what she was doing, and asked with wide eyes, "Near Huayu Plaza?" It's a bustling area! Jingyi, have you made a fortune? β
"Where, I've been working part-time recently, tutoring primary school students, and I've earned some money, so I want to rent a house in the city center to make it easier for me to work."
Aunt Zhang rubbed her hands and sighed "tsk": "It's so good, Jingyi, I really envy you knowledgeable young people!" β
He Jingyi smiled, 'touched' four hundred yuan from her 'trousers' bag, and said, "Aunt Zhang, I used to trouble you a lot, and I didn't want to go, so you ...... take this money."
"No, no, no, no......" Aunt Zhang refused again and again, pushing the money away. Neighbors, you orphans and widows, you should help, how can I ask for your money? β
"Aunt Zhang, you have always taken care of us so much, don't express your gratitude, we really don't want to go." He Jingyi forced it into Aunt Zhang's hand.
"What's the reason why I can't go, I can't go after taking your money......"
pushed each other for a long time, and finally He Jingyi forced the money into Aunt Zhang's 'pants' bag, and Aunt Zhang reluctantly accepted it. "Well, you say...... That's so funny. β
"It's fine, just a little bit of our heart." He Jingyi said that she turned around and went to clamp the honeycomb coal with the tongs. "I'll go back, Aunt Zhang."
"Wait, Jingyi, you haven't eaten yet. When do you have to wait until you go back to the fire and cook? Aunt Zhang said, "It just so happens that I'm frying 'chicken' quiches, so you can take a few back and eat them." β
"No need, Aunt Zhang, I'll go back and cook noodles and eat."
Aunt Zhang lowered her face and pretended to be angry and said, "Jingyi, if you are so polite, I won't accept the money." β
"Good, good...... Then I'll try your handiwork. β
"That's right." Aunt Zhang laughed, "You go to the living room to watch TV for a while, it will be fried in a few minutes." β
He Jingyi walked to the living room of Aunt Zhang's house, and a small 29-inch TV was playing a 'fine' color drama. He Jingyi's house doesn't have a TV, and she hasn't watched a TV show for a long time. Just sit down and watch for a while......
He Jingyi's mother lay on the 'bed', recalling the bitter past of her life, and she had to say goodbye from now on, and she was full of emotion in her heart. When I was distracted, I suddenly heard a strange sound of "swish" in the house, and then smelled a burning smell, and before I could 'figure' what was going on, I saw that the "naked" and "exposed" wires in the house were burning!
The wires in the old-fashioned bungalows, all of which are laid out on the walls of the house, can instantly ignite all the flammable materials in the house. In an instant, the curtains, wooden cabinets, and bedding in the house were burning, and He Jingyi's mother was instantly surrounded by flames. She screamed, but because her lower limbs were paralyzed, she couldn't get out of bed to escape, so she could only shout: "Jingyi! Jingyi! β
He Jingyi was watching TV with relish next door when the power suddenly went out. She was stunned for a few seconds, heard her mother's frightened cries, and hurried home. Aunt Zhang also heard it, and went out of the 'door' with He Jingyi, and the two ran to the 'door' of He Jingyi's house, and saw a horrified 'desire' scene - the whole house was on fire, and what was even more terrifying was that He Jingyi's mother was lying on a fire 'bed', her whole body was burning, and she screamed fiercely.
"Momββ!!" He Jingyi let out a heart-rending shout and rushed forward desperately. Aunt Zhang hugged her: "Jingyi, don't step forward, you will also be burned!" Hurry up and put out the fire! β
Two people shouted for help. The surrounding neighbors all came, some people immediately called the fire alarm, and the rest of the people received water to put out the fire with a pot and a scoop, but the fire was too raging, and this level of fire fighting was of no avail. Seeing that He Jingyi's home has become a sea of fire, and it is even about to reach the next door. He Jingyi went crazy and wanted to go in and take her mother out, but this was completely death. She was dragged by several neighbors, crying hoarsely, seeing that her mother could not be saved, He Jingyi's eyes were black and she fainted.
When she woke up, He Jingyi found herself sitting under the big locust tree opposite her home. The fire has been extinguished. Fire trucks and ambulances were parked nearby, and the home was reduced to black and gray ruins. He Jingyi stood up in a trance, stumbled through the crowd, and asked, "Where is my mother?" What about my mother? β
Aunt Zhang came over and hugged He Jingyi, and said with tears in her eyes: "Jingyi, your mother and she have ...... You mourn. β
He Jingyi twitched all over, and tears poured out like spring water. She looked left and right and saw a stretcher parked next to the ambulance, covering a man with a white cloth. He Jingyi wanted to walk over, but Aunt Zhang stopped her: "Jingyi, don't go and see it, you won't be able to stand it!" β
He Jingyi shook her head, broke free from Aunt Zhang's arm, staggered over, and knelt on the ground. She shuddered and lifted the white cloth a little, and saw the corpse of her mother, which was as horrible as black charcoal.
It's just brutal. Several neighbors hurriedly came over and dragged He Jingyi away. He Jingyi was so grief-stricken that she looked up to the sky and wept, crying again and again and fainting. Everyone present burst into tears.
The ambulance took the body directly to the crematorium. He Jingyi knelt on the ground, watching the ambulance take the body away - her mother, who was dependent on her for her life, was gone forever.
Everyone advised He Jingyi to mourn and change, adjust her emotions as soon as possible, and prepare to deal with the aftermath. He Jingyi propped her hands on the ground and didn't hear anything.
Something suddenly occurred to her.
Old Gods. Superpowers. 50 people fight each other.
In the past few days, she has been immersed in the happiness brought by her superpower "money", and has completely ignored these things.
The house is fine, and it is impossible to suddenly catch fire. Someone tried to kill me with superpowers, and they killed my mother.
When He Jingyi realized this, the blood in her whole body almost broke through the blood vessels. She opened her eyes wide and bit her lips, tears pouring out of her eyes with hatred and dripping to the ground.
Kill. I'm going to kill too!
Although I don't know who did it, it was definitely from Class 13.
I'd rather kill 48 by mistake, and I won't let go of this murderer who killed my mother. Now I don't have any fetters anymore. I will use my superpowers regardless of the consequences, even if the world is destroyed, as long as I can avenge my mother!
Money can make the devil grind, wait and see. Son of a bitch bastard, I won't let you go! It was you who 'forced' me He Jingyi to become a devil, then I will send you to hell!
Hatred grew and swelled in He Jingyi's heart like a poisonous bubble. From this moment on, a cancer was planted in her heart. She is no longer the weak and kind He Jingyi she used to be, she is a superpowered person who only survives for revenge.
Her ability to change the whole world.
A few dozen meters away from He Jingyi's home, a 'woman' hid next to a big tree and witnessed this process in horror.
She is the initiator of this tragedy - Zhao Youling.
She did it, but she couldn't help but tremble. This was the first time she had tried to use her superpowers to attack, and it had led to such serious consequences.
I changed the current intensity of He Jingyi's house, causing the voltage to instantly increase to thousands of volts, causing the fire. She covered her mouth in horror. The ability of "electricity" that I originally chose was so terrifying.
But I killed the wrong person. He Jingyi did not die, but her mother was burned to death. Zhao Youling snorted. Would He Jingyi have guessed that I did it? Will she take revenge on me? My current ability is only level 1, is it her opponent?
No, I can't stay here any longer, if someone finds out...... Zhao Youling ran towards her home in panic.
She came home breathless and closed the door. Her mouth was dry from the nervousness, and she was about to pick up a cup on the table to drink, when she suddenly noticed a note pressed under the cup. Zhao Youling picked up the note suspiciously and saw that it read-
I know what you just did. If you don't want your secrets to be revealed, or your abilities exposed, just meet with me. Tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon, at the Le MΓ©ridien in the Southern New District. I asked the front desk for the specific room number, and I said that I was looking for Mr. Biru. You are a smart person and know what to do.
After reading what was written on the note, Zhao Youling's hands and feet were cold, and she was so stunned that she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. She had just come out in a hurry and didn't lock the 'door', and during this time, someone sneaked into her house and left this note. What's more, this person knows that she killed people with her superpowers!
Oh, my God...... Zhao Youling's body was chilled for a while. What's going on? Has someone been spying on me all the time? Could this "Mr. Biru" be someone from Class 13? He said he wanted to meet me, what was his purpose?
After a few minutes, she realized that she probably had no choice, and that only by meeting this mysterious Mr. Biru could she solve the doubts in her heart. F
