Chapter 45: K's Hunt
Let's push the time forward a little bit to see why Jing Mo was able to catch up and save Mu Lian so "skillfully".
The savings during this period of time are mainly due to Jing Mo.
Haoran's parents' house is not far from the school, and the apartment he rents alone is closer to Lin Qiaoqiao's residence.
Jing Mo used light skills to carry the two people out of the ordinary, often jumping on the roof, flying eaves and taking shortcuts. After a while, they jumped into the community where Haoran's parents lived.
"Brother Cui, will we be charged by law if we break into a private house when we are on a mission?" Jing Xiang came out of nowhere.
Now it's Cui Mingren's turn to lead them, "Yes, but it will generally be leveled by the 'Yuyu' department in the organization that is responsible for contacting the world world...... It's here. ”
Jing Xiang took a deep breath and prepared to knock on the door.
"No need to knock, there's no creature's breathing inside, just pry the door open and enter." Cui Mingren seems to have probed with his abilities.
[Pry open ......] Jing Xiang felt that he had no tools on him that could be used to do so.
Jing Mo noticed his embarrassment, so he relieved him: "I'll come, I haven't done anything like this for a long time." The last time the part-time thief seemed to be in ...... Oops, after so long, I can't remember it for a long time. Jing Mo pondered for a while, and found that he couldn't remember, so he stopped recalling, but pulled out two hairs down.
"Sister, what are you?" Jing Xiang suddenly fell into a fog.
"Don't make a sound, watch your sister's kung fu carefully." Cui Mingren was surprisingly calm.
I saw Jing Mo using one hair as a shaft, and the other hair kept stirring up the mechanism inside, and the two soft and resilient hairs were so hard in her hands that they could be used as lock picks.
No, Jing Xiang was still surprised, but Jing Mo had already opened the security door and entered.
"I can't see it from the outside, but the space inside the house is quite large, what a happy family." Jing Mo sighed and praised.
Indeed, Zhang Haoran's family conditions are excellent, whether it is the furnishings in the room, the decoration, the color tone, etc., you can get a glimpse of the high taste of the owner.
At this time, Jing Xiang already had a question in his heart: why did he have such a distorted psychology, obviously the material life was already abundant, and the spiritual pursuit was not lacking from here.
"Found it, Jingxiang, the child's room is on the second floor." Cui Mingren, who is doing intelligence tasks, has a very accurate intuition.
This is an inner duplex building, and there is a room on the second floor with the words "Haoran Room" on the lintel.
"It turns out that this child with a twisted personality is called Haoran." Jing Mo stared at the word Hao Ran with interest, "Although the name is good, it seems that as long as it is associated with the word 'Hao', it will be against me." Jing Mo was obviously recalling something, but his subordinates' action of unlocking the lock did not fall.
Entering Haoran's room, Jing Xiang felt the light suddenly dim, and an inexplicable feeling of depression surged into his chest.
Surrounded by dark wallpaper, the sunny side of the windowsill of the room was obscured by a tall building, the floor pattern that could only be seen clearly when the light was turned on, and the paper basket next to the desk......
[Wait, paper basket?! 】
Jing Xiang immediately rushed over and picked it up to see. He wanted to find the same paper as before, but alas, the paper basket was empty......
"It's been dealt with." Jing Xiang was not discouraged, in his opinion, the scene at this time was as if he was incarnated as a private detective, with two assistants looking for clues to the "disappearance".
Cui Mingren was not idle, he took a wine glass from the kitchen downstairs, fastened it on the cabinet, and knocked on the cabinet door with his hand to listen to the echo inside. Under his hearing, the reverberations of sounds of different materials are obviously different, and he himself has been trained for many years, and can judge the position and type of things by the reverberations; Mu Lian, who has worked with him many times, knows his abilities best.
"It's all clothes and daily necessities, and the sound of paper feedback is very special, and it's clear that there's nothing left here." Cui Mingren shook his head.
Jing Xiang was about to leave here and go to Haoran's current residence to look for clues, when Jing Mo suddenly spoke: "I seem to have found something amazing!" ”
Jing Mo's voice felt like a wall had penetrated in, indeed, from just now, she did not enter Haoran's room, but opened the door of his parents' bedroom and walked in.
Cui Mingren and Jing Xiang moved when they heard the sound, and it turned out that Jing Mo found a photo album with a piece of paper on the bedside table in the bedroom.
"There's a beautiful woman on this paper, who do you look like?" Jing Mo handed the paper with the character drawings to Jing Xiang.
Jing Xiang took it and looked at it, it was okay not to look at it, and he was startled when he saw it, "This ...... Isn't this Lin Qiaoqiao? ”
It is true that there is no way to see the relationship with real life just by looking at a picture of a villain that is similar to a stick figure drawing, but the animal ears protruding from the ends of the beauty's hair are very obvious. This comic girl with animal ears is very similar to Lin Qiaoqiao, whom Jingxiang happened to meet. And it happened to be sitting on the ground, touching her head, and when Jing Xiang met Lin Qiaoqiao, he knocked her to the ground.
"There's still a word on the back!" Jing Mo stood opposite Jing Xiang, and when he raised it up to watch, he happened to see some dense words on the back.
And these words are a character setting:
A girl who can transform into a werewolf, aged about 16 years old, is a subspecies of werewolf born to a werewolf father and a human mother, and can usually maintain a human form for a long time, and in the case of large mood swings, it will grow animal ears, but the body form will not produce werewolves; Has a certain combat ability, but most of it is converted into hidden physical fitness; At the most critical moment, you can transform into a complete werewolf, your physical fitness is greatly strengthened, and your hands can tear apart the human body.
Background: Due to contact with the werewolf's father as a child, he retained the habits of a wolf, and after his father was killed by humans, he roamed the fringes of the city with his mother to live a human life. When I was in junior high school, I came across a bad group, and then I went deep into it, learned the secret of my father's murder by humans, and prepared to dismantle this criminal group internally.
"After reading it, I feel that this Haoran is planning to write a novel! What do you think? Jing Xiang looked at Jing Mo.
Cui Mingren nodded, then turned his head to look at the clock, a wrinkle of worry between his eyebrows.
"But...... Lin Qiaoqiao should be dead. Jing Mo broke the news.
Under Jing Xiang's surprised gaze, Jing Mo had no choice but to make a long story short, briefly explaining that he had seen Lin Qiaoqiao's mother and Lin Qiaoqiao's death in the suburban mountains.
"Wait a minute, sister!" Jing Xiang frowned and thought for a while, then responded: "No, Lin Qiaoqiao should have encountered a bad group!" ”
"What do you mean by that?" Jing Mo looked like he didn't understand.
"I'm just a conjecture now, based on the paper and a half that I already have, combined with the ability of the prophecy book that I first discovered, I think it is very likely that Lin Qiaoqiao, as the heroine, her behavior is completely controlled! And there is a high probability that she will not realize it herself. Jing Xiang paced, "However, to confirm this conjecture, we must get more prophecy papers, although it is not clear why he must tear off these papers and dispose of them, but from the information of the former holder that he inadvertently revealed before, I can roughly guess that if the things in this prophecy book want to happen in reality, the words must be exposed to reality, and its form may be to tear it off." Otherwise, there would not have been a situation where the last author of a book would give his torn paper to a friend, and then be killed by the werewolves. ”
Jing Xiang was silent for a minute, and then his eyes seemed to light up again, "Since the story of the previous holder was collected and killed by the created creatures, then, in other words, the control ability of the Prophecy Book is not absolute, it only provides a platform for realizing the possible, I think it is also, if there are really props or abilities that can fully realize the future, then, the reality is too terrifying!" ”
"And according to your information, sister, I think that this prophecy book can only be designed by pulling the surrounding people and things that are most in line with the plot; Moreover, it shouldn't be a resurrection ...... the dead," Jing Xiang was about to continue, when Cui Mingren began to urge.
"There's still a place to live, let's hurry up and find other papers, if we analyze it, we don't have time to listen to it now, Mu Lian must have followed, if the ability that kid just showed, Mu Lian will be in danger, the most important thing is that her ability is ...... price"
"Dad, why is your door unlocked?!" Just then, a voice came from downstairs.
"Impossible! I...... Wait! This! Shh ”
Upstairs, Jing Xiang was suddenly at a loss.
"Don't mess around, listen to me, Jingxiang, you are playing Haoran now, he and I are now your classmates, wait a minute, I'll go see Haoran's parents first, when you hear me shouting 'Haoran', you and him come down again, do you hear?" Jing Mo patted Jing Xiang's shoulder to calm him down.
Jing Mo went down the stairs without hurry, and greeted as he walked: "Hello uncle and aunt!" My name is Lin Qiaoqiao, and I am Haoran's classmate. ”
Haoran's parents were first taken aback when they heard the voice, and then they relaxed a little when they heard the content. And at this moment of relaxation, Jing Mo stepped on rhythmic steps in front of Haoran's parents.
At this time, in the eyes of Haoran's parents, Jing Mo was Lin Qiaoqiao's appearance, and his mother recognized it at a glance, "Huh! You are the girl painted by my family Haoran~"
Jing Mo smiled and said, "I didn't expect Haoran to be able to draw!" ”
Jing Xiang was very nervous at the beginning to eavesdrop on the conversation downstairs, for fear of missing the opportunity. As soon as he heard Jing Mo say "Haoran" this time, he immediately pulled Cui Mingren downstairs.
"Yo, Haoran, you didn't tell us when you brought your classmates home, but ah, you didn't go to school today, the school building was blown up by an explosion, at that time, your father and I were in the administrative building closest to the laboratory, it's really dangerous!"
"Hey, mom child, didn't you say you wouldn't mention this, let's entertain them quickly." When my father saw Haoran there, although he didn't show anything on the surface, he was relieved in his heart.
Jing Xiang couldn't laugh or cry when he saw that Haoran's parents regarded him as their son, and at this time, all he could think of was Jing Mo's almost divine hypnotism.
"No, Mom and Dad, I still have something to take them to me, you are frightened today, just rest at home!" Jing Xiang tried to pretend to be Haoran's tone.
But...... The strange thing is that Haoran's parents have red eyes, especially the mother, who has tears in her eyes.
"Good son, grow up......" the father only had this sentence.
The mother, who was tear-jerking by these words, cried and said, "It's been ten years...... It's the first time you've said that...... Before...... In the past, you would just say, 'It's a blessing to be able to come out, thank goodness,' and things like that......"
Jing Xiang was suddenly overwhelmed by this sudden situation.
"Son...... You haven't called me 'Dad' in years, and this time you narrowly escaped death, I ...... I want to listen to it again, can I call it again, just ...... Just a ......"
"Dad!"
Haoran's father couldn't keep his composure anymore, his eyes were moist and his lips couldn't stop shaking.
"Child, your dad and I have always treated you as our own...... After all these years, finally, you're no longer polite......"
And in this sentence, Jing Xiang grasped the key. On a whim, he asked, "Mom, Dad, have you ever seen my book, it's the one with the white cover." ”
Jing Xiang is gambling, first, betting that the prophecy book, that is, the 'White Magic Guide Book' mentioned by Mei Yuansi, is a white cover, and his parents have seen Haoran's book;
"Didn't you take all the books with you to that house?" Jing Xiang was slightly disappointed by his mother's answer, he thought he could find more information here.
"Is that the book...... I remember you sometimes sneaking it out and reading it. The father's words ignited the excitement of the three people present.
The father continued, and walked in the direction of the stairs: "I don't know the way to the book, but the reading notes you tore out in the book, or the novel?" I secretly stayed. ”
Jing Mo also quietly followed, and at the same time, he asked Jing Xiang to bring his mother with him.
[It seems that this has a limited scope!] Jing Xiang quickly realized this, so he took Haoran's mother's hand and walked upstairs together.
In the storage room on the third floor, my father took out a wooden box with a stack of papers.
"I secretly stayed, I think, when you become a writer in the future, these things can be considered ink treasures, at least, they are all youth memories left by your mother and me." My father proudly took out the stack of papers.
At the moment when Jing Xiang took the paper, Jing Mo suddenly spoke: "Uncle and aunt, you better rest early." ”
After hearing this, Haoran's adoptive parents consciously went down to the master bedroom on the second floor, closed the doors and windows, turned on the air conditioner and went to sleep.
"How? Do you see anything famous? Jing Mo didn't wait for Jing Xiang to exclaim, he turned around and asked him the right question.
Jing Xiang flipped through them one by one and said: "There is no such thing as page numbers, and you can only rely on logical relationships to splice." In general, most of these papers are about the legendary incident of Lin Qiaoqiao being an undercover agent in a criminal gang, but these papers are very intriguing. ”
Jing Mo took out a few folded pieces of very crumpled paper from it, and said: "First of all, this one, Hao Ran doesn't seem to plan to write about himself, but just arranged a relaxed turning plot for Lin Qiaoqiao, or maybe it's the plot needs, let her transfer to Haoran's own school, it can be seen from this that Haoran didn't realize that the prophecy book in his hand had real power at that time, or rather, he didn't care." And just from the increase or decrease in the number of pages, it seems that if you don't pay attention to it, you can't see the change. And from this chapter, when Lin Qiaoqiao found his father's body in the deep alley but was found, from this point on, it was consistent with the incident that Lin Qiaoqiao and we said! ”
Cui Mingren nodded anxiously, but Jing Xiang still didn't notice, and Wuzi was immersed in reasoning.
In the next chapter, Haoran artificially created panic against Lin Qiaoqiao, and at the same time, it seems that he himself has been affected by something, so that his style has changed, and it is biased towards darkness and full of unhealthy plots. But in a way...... It's really good-looking......" Jing Xiang scratched his head.
Jing Mo smiled slightly playfully.
Moreover, on this piece of paper, many plots are deliberately added or deleted for the sake of good looks. So, sometimes he writes the font big, sometimes it is small and dense. Anyway, it's enough to draw conclusions now! Lin Qiaoqiao was chosen when Haoran got the book a year ago and began to design the heroine, because she was used as the protagonist, she had a lot of background memories, so the memories were tampered with, and she went to a place she didn't know to live a legendary career, not her mother thought she died...... And the "Legend of the Hungry Wolf" incident, its author collected the whole thing that had happened that he had torn off, and the person who handed it over was actually the werewolf he designed, but he himself didn't know the way; In other words, the reason for the death of the previous author was what Hao Ran knew, but then it was not the author who died, so the creation disappeared; Rather, after the events are known, the misguided memories of the book are completely returned, and when the characters in the book are fully aware of their past, the novel, or rather the story, dies! Jing Xiang said with a final word: "This book of prophecy is actually just a lie that guides the truth!" It's a hypnotism powerful enough to work on reality! ”
Jing Mo listened beautifully.
Cui Mingren couldn't help but look at him in admiration, however, "I think we have to hurry to our new residence, Mu Lian's price is to show some or all of her scarred body when there is a man by her side, and when she doesn't have or needs more strength...... She will open the healed scar and experience the pain again...... This...... This is the information I got when I accidentally listened to the president talk to himself, and although I don't know if it is 100% accurate, it ...... We shouldn't be gambling with our partner's life, should we? Cui Mingren finally found a chance to finish in one breath.
After realizing the urgency of the matter, Jing Mo directly took the two of them all the way to the east with light skills, and found the other half of the paper of today's incident in Haoran's current apartment.
And it is shockingly written "Hungry Wolf Merge Ceremony", location: Eastern suburbs warehouse.
