Chapter 16: Lin Qian (2)

In the silent dark alley, the woman's face was hidden in the shadow under the white hood, and only a fair and slender chin could be seen.

"Why are you following me?" the woman's voice was clear and flat, as if she already knew the answer.

"You know why, sister, come on, come back with me. The middle-aged man smiled and stretched out his hand to the woman, the wedding ring on his ring finger shining with a silver cold light.

"How did you find me?" the woman asked, ignoring the man's outstretched hand.

"To be honest, it's not too easy, I guess it started with you treating that stupid little girl who was blinded by a fall?" the middle-aged man chuckled, "You can't help but use divine power, and divine power will always leave traces." ”

The woman was silent, and after a moment said slowly, "She is only eight years old. ”

"yes, yes, how pathetic. The middle-aged man gently echoed, "Human beings are such fragile creatures, a small flu can take the lives of thousands of people, of course they need to be saved, but not in this way, you know, the ending has long been written in the scriptures, and we are all waiting for that day." ”

The woman looked at him coldly, "Do you mean to save with plague, war, famine and death?"

"The Four Horsemen are the effect, not the cause, but we don't need to discuss that right now. The middle-aged man smiled gently, slowly approached the woman, and said softly, "It must be very hard to materialize and hide among humans, right? Maintaining an entity in the human realm is very energy-consuming, sister, this is not the place where we should stay, come back with me." ”

"So you condescended to choose a skin to take me back?" the woman sneered and took a step back, "You've been chasing me for days, how are you going to explain to the wife of this body? Explain why you've been missing for a few days, explain the smell of dirty perfume on your body, and the scratches on your body?"

"Explain, why explain?" the man slowly touched the three red marks on his neck and smiled, "I haven't been to the human world for a long time, I'm almost a little unused to it, the last time I used a human body was a thousand years ago, and women at that time didn't taste as good as they do now." ”

He stared at the woman and continued to smile closer: "What's more, this is exactly what this body wants, isn't it? He has long been disgusted with his boring wife, the initial love has been worn out by time, and the routine married life once every few months can't soothe this energetic body at all." You don't know how he prayed in his heart for an affair, and you see, I satisfied him, I gave him what he wanted, even if he didn't even have the courage to say it. ”

"You only gave him disgusting sickness and a broken marriage. The woman's calm voice finally revealed a hint of disgust, "You're taking advantage of this body's fragility just to better control him. ”

"So what?" the man finally approached the woman, so close that he could grab her with a single stretch of his hand, and his demeanor became more relaxed and more interested in talking.

"This body is very religious, and so is his wife. When I leave, he won't remember anything, but he will feel the ecstasy of inspiration. That's humans, that's what they're praying for, nobody is forcing them, isn't it? The woman in the bar was his own choice, and I'm just, what do humans call that? Oh yes, courage, you see, I just gave him a little bit of courage. As for the consequences, why should I care? Sister, don't waste your time, come to me, and go back with me. ”

"Who else knows about me? You found me, who else knows?" The woman looked up and looked at the middle-aged man, the hood of her hat slipped down, revealing her beautiful and demure face, her long black silky hair poured down her shoulders, she didn't seem to have any thoughts of resisting, the middle-aged man really thought so, and he smiled even more kindly.

"Who to tell? It's my credit, isn't it? Sister, you've got too many questions, you're wasting your time, the stench of this body makes me sick, let's go back where we're supposed to be, huh?"

"I have one last question," the woman asked calmly, "is Mike also here, and what is he here for?"

The middle-aged man shrugged his shoulders slightly: "That's not something I can ask about at my level, but I heard that the above is looking for a very important person." ”

"Looking for whom?"

"Sister, I advise you to take care of yourself. A trace of impatience appeared on the middle-aged man's face, and he reached out and grabbed the woman.

The woman took a lightning step back, dodging his hand.

The middle-aged man smiled: "Why bother, sister, you have spent too much energy to maintain the materialization, you have no power to resist me, I don't want to hurt you, but you have to go back and accept the punishment." Thunder or fire, I can't wait for you to tell me which is better. ”

"Don't call me sister. The woman sneered, her right hand slowly stretched out, and a short sword wrapped in golden light with a pyramidal blade appeared in her hand.

"What?" the smile on the middle-aged man's face disappeared, replaced by surprise and horror, "How is that possible?"

"I can't let you go back. The woman said calmly, "So, you can only die." ”

"You actually stole ......," the man didn't have time to finish his words, and he turned and ran. The woman coldly chased after her.

The exit from the dark alley is the backstreet of a bar, where there are usually no cars, but today there is one, and a black motorcycle is speeding through the intersection. The middle-aged man who fled in a panic didn't have time to dodge, he didn't have to dodge, the motorcycle could only hurt this body, and he might be able to get a few more seconds to escape from that terrible woman.

However, the woman appeared next to the middle-aged man at the last moment, grabbed him by the shoulder and pulled him back from the wheel.

The motorcycle made a screeching brake sound and stopped dozens of meters away, and the rider in the car looked here in a black leather suit and a helmet.

The woman felt a pain in her arm, and she didn't have time to turn back, and with a quick swing of the short sword in her hand, she shook off the middle-aged man. When I looked up again, the black motorcycle rider was gone.

"You've been marked. The middle-aged man clutched his neck and staggered back, silver energy flowing down between his fingers, like leaking mercury. Deep in the alley is a dead end, from which he has no way out.

He slapped the wall a few times in a panic, the wall was solid and cold, he couldn't use his powers, the damn sword made him unable to do anything. In despair, he turned and clung to the wall, staring at the approaching woman. Silver liquid poured out of the wound, forming a puddle of fluorescent water at his feet, like some kind of leaking solution from a chemical plant.
