Chapter 379: A Stormy Night, Part IV
Kai, you have to go your own way, and you must not become a second self......
That man, without a heart......
The diary left by my father appeared in front of me, as if it had been torn by someone, and turned into countless small pieces of paper flying in the air, like a group of vanishing butterflies, each of which was a fragment of a past memory, recording the story of the great father himself, and at this moment, the picture that originally presented a warm feeling suddenly became dim, as if it had been covered with gauze and shadows, and the back of the tired and strong man in the background was so thin through a cold face. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
It was the old man's face.
If he follows the path I have laid out, he will have food and clothing for the rest of his life...... But he disobeyed me, so he tried to live in a meaningless place all his life, and no one knew about his death, and he lived so despicable......
I'm so disappointed, you're as stupid as your father.......
Then let me tell you about the cruelty of reality.......
Your mother died because of me......
.......
Kai felt as if his brain was stuffed into a living honeycomb, and the extremely chaotic and noisy beeping sound filled his brain, as if he was about to burst his head, and in front of him was a rapidly flashing picture, the picture had the edge of glass shards, floating and overlapping irregularly, as if to be combined into a picture, but this picture was prevented by Kai's subconscious and did not want it to take shape, because it was formed, and he collapsed.
He wanted to reach out and hit his head, pull his hair, or even scratch his cheek, just so that the pain could help him suppress his messy brain, but it was a luxury, and he couldn't do it, because his hands were locked to Jonah.
Jonah is really a terrible person, as he said, at this moment, he imprinted the deepest feelings of unwilling anger and helplessness in Kai's heart, making him carried away by anger, but he was powerless to vent this anger.
"Are you angry, do you want to destroy me, stand up, and swing your fist like you did just now," Jonah looked down at Kai under him with the most indifferent eyes, looking at the boy who was drenched by the wind and rain, the rain was flowing on his face, and it was impossible to tell if he was crying, "Can't do it? β
"I can feel your arm shaking violently, you're resisting my restraint on you," Jonah's feet swayed, and he knew it was Kai struggling, so he increased his strength again, like a nail to nail Kai's arm to the ground, "It's painful, like this." β
"That's enough, let him go, aren't you going to kill us, then come straight at us!" Lin couldn't stand the scene in front of him, he clenched his bow and arrow at Jonah, and shouted at the top of his voice, "I feel Kai's enlightenment, if it was just death, we would have also had the corresponding enlightenment." β
Jona, who was attracted by the white light, raised his head with the same face, looked at Lin, looked at the weapon composed of light in Lin's hand, and did not even show the slightest surprise in his eyes, plain, like a tiger watching a cat wave its paws at itself.
"The same people will attract each other like magnets, and so will the naΓ―ve weakling," Jonah said to Lin disdainfully, "Then send arrows, with the wonderful weapon in your hand, is it stronger than ordinary bows and arrows, but it doesn't matter, first of all, it is better to control your hands and not shake around." β
Lin swallowed his saliva, it was because of the nervousness, so nervous that the arm holding the bow and arrow couldn't help but tremble, which was completely seen through by the old man, he saw through the fear exposed in his heart at this moment, so he stood there confidently, and didn't even react with a little precaution, he really felt that Lin didn't have the courage to shoot arrows at all.
I can't understand why there is such a type of person in the world, who has obviously been to another world, shuttled through the unpredictable battlefield, survived under the undead army, grabbed the way under the goblin-like knight's knife, fought with giant beasts, and fought with monsters. However, at this time, he was just standing face to face with that person, who was just an ordinary person, who didn't know magic and didn't have any other weird abilities, but he just felt nervous.
Lin muttered countless times in his heart, telling himself not to be nervous and not to be afraid, that man despised himself as his mistake, and he only needed the fastest and most accurate shot on the old man's wrist to let him let go of his hand, so that Kai would not be so painful.
But when he was fighting with his heart, blood was already flashing beside him.
"I can't figure out what he's talking about, and it doesn't matter if he's Kai's grandfather," Lyle strode forward with the bloody knife in his hand, "I just saw my important friend in pain." β
In the next second, gunshots rang out one after another, blood-colored rays flew in all directions, and the task of the group of men was to monitor the four of them and prohibit them from shooting.
"Get down!" Lyle shouted, and the tide of blood rose at the same time, spreading all around his body.
At the same time as he shouted, Lin immediately pulled Xiaofan and Ling to lie down, and then he only felt that there was a fierce wind flow above his head sweeping from all directions.
The blood qi spread, like a shield enveloping the location of the four people, with the same nature, under the obstruction of the blood qi, all the blood-colored rays that came from it were weakened, and when it finally hit Lyle, it was like a mosquito itching.
He directly attracted the power of True Red, and it was precisely in order to protect the three people around him under the siege of that group of people.
Next, it only took to save Kai from Jonah before those men could fire a second shot.
He held the knife and rushed forward, such a short distance, it only took one forward rush, enough to reach Jonah's side in a second, and then, swing the knife.
Jonah turned his head and looked at Lyle who seemed to be transferred to his eyes in an instant, even this level of non-scientific phenomenon was not enough to make his face show a look of shock or surprise, and Lyle even felt that everything had been seen through for a moment when he saw Jona's expression up close, which made him feel a chill in his back.
"Kid from another world," Jonah still shackled Kai's neck with one hand, and the other hand directly blocked Lyle's eyes, or rather, took the initiative to place it on the trajectory of Lyle's knife, "You're really fast......
The moment the blade touched the back of Jona's hand, Lyle felt like he saw Jona's veins reaching out of his skin.
Jona's dynamic strength seemed to be incredibly higher, and in the last second, he stretched out two fingers, so that the blood knife cut right between the two fingers, and what happened next was just in the blink of an eye, Lyle didn't feel his knife cut off Jona's limbs, but felt that there was a more violent force hitting his knife, pure power, and the concussive wrist hurt.
Jonah caught the bloody knife between his fingers, waved his arm, and immediately pulled it away, although there was also a large wound left between his fingers, blood gushed out, and in such bad weather, the rain would quickly infect the wound.
"Just because you're better than a lot of people doesn't mean you're better. But Jonah didn't care about it, as if he had won the duel.
In the next two seconds, Lyle was stunned, he couldn't react immediately, and he couldn't figure out what kind of means this ordinary person who just lived in the human world used to block his own blow, and there was a vague skill similar to the Broken Moon One Knife without a hand.
He was confident that he would be able to chop off his opponent's entire arm, but Jonah seemed to hold the full rhythm of this short exchange tightly from the start.
"There are countless kinds of martial arts in this world," Jonah said, "although I have to admit that there are some other means. β
Suzu, who was lying on the ground and witnessed all this, clearly saw that on Jonah's exposed torso, a large number of blood-colored lines like blood vessels appeared, and she who was infused with Lyle's blood in her body can now feel that what is hidden in it is the power that does not belong to this world, and it is the power of flesh and blood.
"Lyle, he can use that blood-activated ability too!" Suzu shouted at Lyle.
"What the hell did you do with your sister's body, those beasts, and your body......" Lyle glared at the old man in front of him, feeling that he had done something to desecrate the dead girl.
Jona's hand was strong, and Kai let out a loud wail again, and Lyle was stunned, not daring to act rashly.
"Do you want to try, will you take my whole arm off first, or if I can break your friend's neck first? Jonah looked directly into Lyle's gaze and defiantly extended a bloody hand to him.
"Madman, that's your grandson, doing this to his own family......" Lyle felt a pang of pain in his heart.
Isn't the definition of family members the people who love each other the most?
"Bastard, bastard......" Kai, who has been restrained, spoke in a hoarse voice at the moment, every time he said a word, his throat was painful, and Jonah seemed to use special techniques to pinch the special acupuncture points on Kai's neck, which made it difficult for him to speak.
"What the hell have you done, what the hell do you want...... Kai frowned, looking up at the devilish Jonah, the old man who couldn't believe that he was still his grandfather.
The wind is also cold, and the rain is cold.
A crisp voice suddenly came out, which seemed a little out of place with the atmosphere at the moment.
The man dressed as a secretary suddenly jumped out of the black car in the back, and ran to Jona's side with an umbrella in the wind and rain, his body trembled, as if he couldn't get used to seeing the scene in front of him, so he turned his back to Lyle and the others and tried to look only at his boss.
"The next scheduled time on the itinerary has arrived. The man raised his wrist watch and approached Jonah, as if it was the first time he had seen such a boss, and he made eye contact with Jonah, no, when he saw Jona's cold eyes like an ice cube, he couldn't help but shiver, Jonah didn't look at him at all.
"See, it's almost time," Jonah said, "and get me a new coat and what's in the trunk." β
Lyle didn't understand what was happening in front of him, and before he could speak, Jonah raised his leg to leave an afterimage and kicked him in the face a few meters away.
"Lyle!" Suzu got up from the ground, worriedly looking at Lyle, who had been beaten to the back, and as soon as she stood up, her body was crooked and fell again.
"Head...... I'm so dizzy......" Suzu only felt black in front of her eyes.
Lin has been lying on the ground, it's not that he doesn't want to get up, but he can't do it, unconsciously, his limbs strangely lost all their strength, and he was paralyzed, as if he had been pulled out of his spine and became a soft creature, and then he began to feel dizzy and swollen, and his veins seemed to be filled with strange liquid, which was cold and burning for a while.
Xiao Fan's body was the most fragile of the several people, and earlier, he was already in a daze and almost fainted.
"We've been poisoned?" Lin let out a small sound, feeling chills in his heart.
"What did you do to us?" Lyle still had the strength to prop up half of his body, but his lower body was already paralyzed.
"A tiny toxin that melts into liquid," Jonah said, "from the time your skin begins to come into contact with this rain, the toxin has already invaded your body, and it is a chronic poison that requires a lot of accumulation to continue to take effect, so you can't notice it, don't worry, it's specially formulated for your exception, although it will encounter blood that causes a more terrible reaction, but it does not melt into the blood, so no matter how special your blood is, you should go to sleep." β
Lyle had lost the strength to open his mouth, his vision blurred, and before his eyes closed, he vaguely saw the secretary returning to Jonah with new clothes and a box, which Jonah opened and held something in his hand.
And Kai, who was held in Jonati's hands, also seemed to have been robbed of consciousness together, and he let go and was still in the puddle.
Jonah inserts a syringe containing the antidote into his body, and the liquid in the syringe flows into his body, breaking down the toxins that are working.
"What should I do with these people, do you really kill them directly?" asked the subordinate with a gun on the side.
Jonah put on a new suit jacket and took care of his collar under the secretary's open umbrella, and after his subordinates asked questions, he was silent for a few seconds, but it was only for a few seconds.
"It's to be killed, but not dealt with here, take them all away first, take them to that place and imprison them first," he said, and walked into the black car without looking back, as if everything that had just happened was just a commercial entertainment, and he appeared in a suit and shoes, and he did not lose his demeanor when he left, although his body was also soaked, "I'll go first, and you can settle the rest and follow me." β
The men watched as the black sedan turned away and drove into the darkness of the rain.
"Boss, it's really a terrible person," one of the gun-wielding men walked up to the other and said, "What do you say, big brother, even the children and their own grandchildren are treated so coldly, is that really a human being, it feels like a ghost." β
"No, he is indeed human," replied the man known as Big Brother, "I don't know about the gods and demons, I only know that mortals do have limits, not everything can be done, indeed, I felt the same way as you at first, but now it has changed." β
"What?" the low man puzzled.
"That kind of person has to sit on the highest place all the time, and even family affection has to be ruthlessly sacrificed, and everyone has always felt that he has done it, but in fact, he still hasn't been able to do it. β
"If your son dies, you don't care about it, and your grandson can kill it with his own hands, and you still say that you can't give up your family?" asked the low man suspiciously, "Then, do you have to take the initiative to kill all the family without any reason?"
"When did you see him shoot or stab his grandson to death with a knife on the spot, and confirm the death, and let alone his own hands," said the man, "at least, I don't think he has the ruthlessness to completely give up his own flesh and blood." β
"Big brother, you're too serious," the low man smiled, "The boss said that it's inconvenient here, don't you want to take it back and solve it." β
"Why not deal with it in this place," the man also smiled and looked at the people around him, "Then you say, why did he hesitate for a few seconds just now." β
-------
Jonah sat in the car, watching the rain blur the windows and turn on the humidifier on the couch, drying his suit pants that he didn't have time to change.
The driver and the secretary man sat in the front row, the rain was really heavy, the night was dark in front of them, and the headlights could not illuminate too wide a range, but the driver was also a veteran, and he seemed to be able to find the way with his eyes closed.
The car had just driven out of the entrance of the playground when it suddenly stopped.
The driver opened the window slightly and scolded out the window, "Don't get in the way, it's like being hit to death in the middle of the night!"
"Boss, I'll go see what's going on. Before Jonah could speak, the secretary immediately said to him flatteringly.
But he saw the boss's eyes slowly move from himself to the window next to him, and then closed again.
Outside the window, someone knocked on the car window.
"This ...... without eyesight," the secretary looked helpless and irritable, wanting to open the window at hand and let the people outside go away.
"The windows opened. Jonah just said quietly.
"Alas?" The secretary was a little stunned, he didn't figure out what the boss just said was like what he meant, this wind and rain, coupled with the fact that he was entangled in affairs, how could the boss delay things with a passerby who was looking for fault in the middle of the night, he must be just a drunk who couldn't go home drunk.
Jonah didn't say it a second time, and the atmosphere in the car suddenly seemed a little cold.
"Open the window, open the window. The secretary finally reacted, the boss's order was greater than the sky, and hurriedly greeted the driver of a plate.
The window slid down, and very close to the door, stood a young woman with an umbrella.
The secretary wanted to send the man away first, but as soon as he leaned over, he felt a cold air rush into the car, so that he couldn't help but sit back in the hot seat where he was. He couldn't see the woman's appearance very clearly, he only felt that the other party was talking and his tone was cold, as if it was this weather.
He had the illusion that the woman, in some ways, seemed to belong to the same category as the boss, but the boss was too special, like a monster.
"This lady, I don't know what to do with me. Jonah sat in the car, made a slight move to say hello, and asked polite questions.
"My sister has come home so late and hasn't come home yet, and I'm out looking for her," the woman asked, "have you seen it, all I know is that she came to the playground with her friends in the afternoon." β
"I'm very sorry, I haven't seen a character like Ling Mei, after all, it's so late, and it's bad weather, even if it's a young girl, I haven't been able to see one, I can't help you, I'm sorry. β
"No, you don't need to apologize, but I'm bothering," said the woman, "too, it's so late, no one is stupid enough to come out, maybe it's just me who can't find my sister, or, like you?" look at your look, you're still wet, obviously sitting in such a luxury car," the woman paused, as if there was something in her words, "I'm sorry, I talked too much." β
"It doesn't matter," said Jonah, "for some personal reason, I had to go out at this time, and I accidentally got a little rain to make the lady smile." β
"The last thing, I didn't say that my sister is a young girl, maybe she is the same age as me, my age, it's not suitable to be called a girl, and it's a bit disrespectful to be called like this. β
"It's just a guess, it's my rash speech, which upset the lady, please forgive me. Jonah nodded apologetically.
The secretary and the driver, the two sat in the front row in a daze, secretly watching the movement of the back, after the boss finished the last sentence, the two fell into a short silence, no one could think of it, they were thinking about something in their hearts, it seemed to be a confrontation. The secretary couldn't imagine that the boss would be so polite to a passerby, and he would only do this when he talked about cooperation with some customers with special status.
"I'm sorry to bother you, goodbye," the woman was the first to break the silence, "it's raining heavily late at night, be careful on the road." β
"You too, I hope to find Ling Mei as soon as possible," Jonah responded, "After all, it's not good to get into trouble in this kind of weather." β
"By car. He said again.
The driver immediately pressed the button to close the window and stepped on the accelerator.
Ruoming held an umbrella, stared coldly at the black car, and left in the distance.
