Chapter 10: The Assassin

Ye Yu suddenly remembered the sense of invasion he felt at the beginning, it turned out that he was searched by the man in front of him at that time!?

"You...... Why are you doing that!? Ye Yu was a little annoyed, and his voice unconsciously became louder.

"To find the suspicious person in the background of that key photo." Lou Yue looked calm, "You appeared in a scene at the same time as him, although you didn't realize it, maybe there will be clues about this person in your hidden memory." “

"It's a pity that I was expelled before I could get into your brain, but I accidentally found a "destroyer", which is a good bonus." Lou Yue continued to drink coffee, completely ignoring Ye Yu's anger.

"Even if you want to investigate, you can't just invade other people's brains! Did you search everyone in our office at that time!? ”

"I need to correct you on two points. First of all, even though the Blood Keystone can enhance people's brain waves, in order to accurately carry out the brain invasion of others, the body needs to be used as a contact medium, that is, I must directly touch the other person; Secondly, the use of the Blood Keystone will cause a lot of load on the brain, if I had searched so many people as you said, then I am afraid that I would have ended up with Chen Yan by now. After speaking, Lou Yue sighed, as if the other party had asked a very stupid question.

"And all that you did to me afterwards was to determine if I was born an "expulsor"?" Ye Yu tried to restrain his emotions.

"Yes." Lou Yue's answer was concise and crisp.

“……”

Ye Yu still wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to speak for a while. Although his performance in "Vision" has proven his innocence, and as an "expulsor" he does not have to worry about his "safe fortress" being breached, the painful feeling of resisting the invasion of brain waves is still fresh in his memory.

Speaking of the sense of invasiveness...... Wait, it's felt more than once!

Ye Yu suddenly thought of the little episode when he returned to his residence in the afternoon, the man in the windbreaker who bumped into him.

"I've got some clues! Let me take another look at that key photo! Ye Yu shouted excitedly to Lou Yue.

Seeing Ye Yu's serious expression, Lou Yue did not hesitate, and immediately turned on the virtual screen and brought up the photo.

"The guy in the background, zoom in again!"

The photo is partially maximized, and the costume of the hidden figure is revealed. I saw that the man was wearing a dark trench coat and a peaked cap pressed very low, hiding his face, judging from his figure and dress, he was very similar to the man he met this afternoon.

Ye Yu told Lou Yue what happened in the apartment in the afternoon. With Ye Yu's narration, Lou Yue's expression slowly became serious. "I'm afraid things are changing." Sister Mu on the side whispered solemnly.

"You're staying here tonight, and you can't go back to that apartment for 24 hours from now." Lou Yue looked at Ye Yu, his tone was irrefutable, almost an order.

"Why ......?" Ye Yu asked weakly.

"Don't you understand your situation?" Lou Yue's face was grim, "You're in trouble." ”

Ye Yu was stared at in a cold sweat. can make Lou Yue, who has always been calm, show such an expression, I am afraid that the "trouble" in his mouth is not small.

"If the man in the trench coat you met this afternoon tried to search your brain, then there's no doubt that this person has a Blood Keystone on his hands." Lou Yue stood up and said. "And judging from the clues obtained so far, it is very likely that he is the hidden person in the photo, so I am afraid that the purpose of his search of your brain is the same as mine, which is to confirm whether you have any memories of him at the scene at that time in your brain."

"Yet he was 'banished' by my body and did not succeed......"

"Yes, he has discovered your "expulsion constitution" as a result, and this will put you in extreme danger." Lou Yue is colorful.

"It's... What do you mean? ”

"The reason is very simple, if an ordinary person knows the properties of the Blood Keystone that can make people read memories, and he meets someone who may have a Blood Keystone, what will his first reaction be?" Lou Yue folded her arms and waited for Ye Yu's answer.

"Stay away from him and avoid any contact with him." Ye Yu said without thinking.

"What if it can't be avoided?"

"This ......" Ye Yu hesitated for a moment, then swallowed the words to his lips and fell into silence.

"I'd love to kill him." Lou Yue gave him the answer, "In order to protect the "secret" in their hearts, people often choose the most extreme way. ”

Ye Yu didn't speak, he already knew what he was going to face.

The people who have the "Expulsion Physique" are the people who are related to the Blood Keystone, except for the kind of natural "Expulsor" that is unique in ten thousand. And although Ye Yu is a natural "expulsor", in the eyes of the other party, I am afraid that the other is more likely, not to mention that the other party also thinks that he saw him on the night of Chen Yan's accident. If the man in the trench coat is the murderer of Chen Yan's case, judging from his methods, he will undoubtedly be the next assassination target of the other party.

Thinking of this, Ye Yu couldn't help but become depressed, in the end, the cause of everything was because of last night's overtime, if he didn't go back to the company at that time, he would still be able to live a peaceful life as a little reporter and not fall into such deep trouble.

However, Ye Yu's life is destined to be unpeaceful.

"Knock knock...", there was a quick knock on the door in the lounge, and it was the bartender named Aqi that Ye Yu had seen before.

"Sister Mu, something happened." Ah Qi's expression was a little nervous, "Hurry up and watch the news!" As he spoke, he clicked on the screen on the wall.

"The latest news, fifteen minutes ago, that is, at about 11:30 this evening, an explosion occurred in an apartment building on XX Road in our city, the source of the explosion was room 302 on the third floor of the apartment, and the preliminary speculation was that the cause was a gas leak. The fire caused by the explosion spread to the entire floor, and the personnel of the apartment have been evacuated urgently, and it is not known if there are any casualties......"

Ye Yu stood up abruptly, staring blankly at the picture, and his body couldn't help but start trembling.

In real-time footage on the screen, people scattered and fled, and fire trucks arrived at the scene spraying jets of water. The one surrounded by the raging fire on the picture is the apartment where Ye Yu lives, and room 302, the source of the explosion, is his room. "It's ...... My ......" Ye Yu, who was shocked, didn't know what to say anymore. "Tsk...... Already getting your hands dirty? Lou Yue's brows tightened, but then he suddenly thought of something, turned to Ye Yu and asked, "You drove here today?" Where's the car? "Yes...... It's parked in the open-air parking lot just across the street from the bar, what's wrong? ”

Lou Yue exchanged glances with Sister Mu beside her, who understood and immediately rushed out of the room with Ah Qi. "You're staying at this bar for the time being, it's all our people, you're safe. But remember not to reach out to anyone else and never tell people where you are. Lou Yue said.

Ye Yu nodded silently. He also knew in his heart that after all, he was being targeted, and this explosion was probably caused by the assassin, and if he appeared at random at this time, I was afraid that it would affect the innocent people around him.

The mobile phone rang urgently, Ye Yu pressed the connect button in a daze, and before he could speak, Xiaohua's anxious voice came from the mobile phone: "Hey Ye Yu!" Where are you?! You okay! Speak up!! ”

It should be Xiaohua who saw the news and called as soon as possible, Ye Yu couldn't help but be a little moved.

"Hmm...... I'm outside, it's okay......" Ye Yu took a deep breath and said softly.

"Scared the hell out of me...... I'm really afraid that something will happen to you......" Hearing Ye Yu's voice, Xiaohua seemed to be relieved, "By the way, are you injured?" Do you want me to come to you? ”

"No, no!" Ye Yu became nervous when he heard this, "Huh...... I'm with the police...... There are no injuries, but now this situation is chaotic when there are many people, so you better not come. ”

"You...... Is it really okay? Xiaohua is still a little worried.

"It's okay, I'm safe now...... By the way, help me take a leave of absence tomorrow. Ye Yu pretended to be relaxed and said.

I won't be able to go to work tomorrow, and in such a life-threatening situation, it's a question of whether I'll be able to go to work again in the future.

“…… All right. Hearing Ye Yu so insisting, Xiaohua had no choice but to instruct her, "You pay attention to safety, and come to me at any time if you need it." ”

"Okay, don't worry." Ye Yu tried to restrain his emotions, but his left hand couldn't help but hold down his trembling right hand, and he felt that he couldn't even hold his mobile phone.

Hanging up the phone, Ye Yu suddenly sat back in his chair and buried his head in his hands, why did things turn out like this?! "Jingle Bell ......" The hurried mobile phone pulled Ye Yu back from his frustration again, this time it was his parents. Ye Yu tried his best to pretend that he was okay and comforted his parents so that they could feel at ease. Follow-up calls came in one after another, all worried about Ye Yu's relatives and friends, and even Director Wang called.

While Ye Yu was moved in his heart, he also said things against his heart guiltily. He didn't actually mean to lie, but he didn't want his family and friends to worry, and he didn't want to let the important people around him encounter possible dangers because of himself, if he was destined to have this catastrophe, he would rather choose to face it alone, this is Ye Yu's stubbornness, but also his gentleness. "Your popularity is good, but for their safety, it's best not to contact them in the near future." Lou Yue's eyes seemed to have a trace of imperceptible complex emotions, but in an instant, he regained his calm like a lake, "As for your company, I will arrange it for you......"

Before he could finish speaking, a loud bang rang out, and the whole room shook with it, as if it was coming from a short distance outside the bar. "Not good." Lou Yue's face changed, and he turned around and rushed out of the room.
