Chapter Thirty-Four: Sneaking After
"I'll rest later, you can sleep first."
After Su Wen finished speaking, he glanced at the moon that was already quietly hanging high outside, and patted Ming Qiaoqiao's shoulder in front of him.
"I'm going to be out for a while......"
Before Su Wen could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ming Qiaoqiao.
"What are you going to do out there? It's hard to go it alone again, I want to be with you! ”
Ming Qiaoqiao immediately took a few steps forward and stood beside Su Wen, who looked at her appearance as a little adult and couldn't help laughing.
"I'm going out to buy something, so why don't you go with me?"
Ming Qiaoqiao blinked his eyes and nodded affirmatively.
I didn't expect to say this, Ming Qiaoqiao was still with him, Su Wen held his forehead: "It's really nothing, you rest first, recuperate, and tomorrow we will go to find news from the Doomsday Alliance." ”
This sentence really worked, and Ming Qiaoqiao instantly became interested.
"You mean you found news about the Doomsday Alliance?"
Su Wen touched the tip of his nose and shook his head.
"Not yet, let's check out tomorrow."
Ming Qiaoqiao pursed her lips, said an "oh" in disappointment, and then leaned back and sat on the bed.
"There's a lot going on today, so I'll rest early, and remember to come back early."
Seeing this, Su Wen agreed again and again, and said that he would be back in less than an hour.
"One hour...... It's going to take that long to buy something. Ming Qiaoqiao muttered, but she didn't raise any more objections.
Su Wen came out of the room, closed the door gently, and pinned the short knife with the scabbard to his waist.
"I'm going to see what kind of thing the so-called wants to fight against the Doomsday Alliance."
As everyone knows, just when he secretly left the hotel, Ming Qiaoqiao's pretty face also appeared in the corridor window.
Beiyang Street was only about two kilometers away from the hotel where they were, but in a few minutes, Su Wen was almost there.
Although it was not yet ten o'clock in the evening, there were hardly any people on the streets.
Because wandering around outside at night is more likely to be the target of monster attacks, even if this is near the special line, no one dares to gamble with their lives.
The evening breeze was blowing through the streets, and it was not the coldest month of the year, but the wind seemed to be getting colder by the day.
Su Wen gathered his coat, shivered and continued to move forward, but the afterglow suddenly skimmed behind a slender shadow stretched by the light.
He paused suddenly, and when Su Wen looked carefully, the shadow disappeared again.
His brows furrowed slightly, Su Wen always felt that this matter was not so simple.
When I thought that Ming Qiaoqiao had always been stubborn about what she wanted to get on weekdays, she had to get it softly, but today she promised herself to go to bed early so easily, which was originally a kind of wrong.
But Su Wen continued to walk forward, pretending not to find anything, and turned a street corner.
Dozens of seconds later, a small head poked out from behind a stout tree.
Who else could this person be?
She thought that Su Wen would definitely not take an hour to buy something so simply, but she also thought that Su Wen would never take the initiative to bring her, so she secretly followed.
Sure enough, Su Wen didn't go to the supermarket at all, but came somewhere else.
She crept around the corner.
Just when Ming Qiaoqiao estimated that the distance between himself and Su Wen would not be discovered, Ming Qiaoqiao poked his head towards the corner of the street again.
But this probe is facing each other.
Two round, black and white eyes met Su Wen's helpless eyes.
Ming Qiaoqiao was frightened by the face that was suddenly magnified in front of his eyes, took a few steps back, stood on his heels, and lowered his head weakly.
"Didn't I let you rest well in the hotel? Why did you come along? ”
Su Wen was one head and two big, he was originally worried about Ming Qiaoqiao's safety so he let Ming Qiaoqiao rest in the hotel first, but now she has followed her here, and it is only a few hundred meters away from the agreed place.
If she were allowed to go back now, she wouldn't.
"Am I not worried that you are going alone? Also, don't use this questioning tone! I'm not a kid anymore, and you've lied to me. ”
As if he had found confidence, Ming Qiaoqiao raised his head, although his eyes were still empty, but there was also a trace of anger burning from it.
"I'm worried about you."
Ming Qiaoqiao shook his head away: "Every time you say you're worried about me, but have you ever thought that I'm not a burden by your side, but a companion you can rely on?" ”
This sentence really stopped Su Wen, and he was stunned in place.
In his heart, Ming Qiaoqiao has always been the sister of his friend, the person he needs to protect, and the child who doesn't understand the world.
But she didn't seem to expect that she had already shown her soul power that was about to reach the Beidou Realm in the summoning test, which showed that her talent was by no means beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Even if you only fight for soul power, Ming Qiaoqiao is stronger than herself.
Su Wen showed a wry smile on his face, and took two steps forward to approach Ming Qiaoqiao.
"You're right, maybe I've always thought that you are still the little girl who hasn't grown up, but now that you are an adult and have the ability to protect yourself and the people around you, I should recognize you as a trustworthy partner from the bottom of my heart."
Ming Qiaoqiao thought that Su Wen was going to say something to prevaricate himself, but seeing him answer seriously and admit his mistake, Ming Qiaoqiao also raised his head in surprise.
"Okay, now that I'm here, I won't hide it from you."
After Su Wen finished speaking, he turned his head sideways and pointed to a place with lights on the street behind him: "The place I want to go is there, today at the special train station, I met a man." ”
But in a few words, the matter was made clear, Su Wen and Ming Qiaoqiao walked side by side, and Ming Qiaoqiao looked at the store that was only a few tens of centimeters away after listening, and frowned slightly.
"But what if they have anything else in mind?"
Su Wen asked a little funny: "What else can you think?" I'm a man, could it be that they want to kidnap me and sell my organs? Now that the beast tide is coming, how can anyone do such a thankless job for this money. ”
Ming Qiaoqiao was silent, what Su Wen said did make sense, it seemed that he could only find out.
Standing at the door, Su Wen looked at the dilapidated store, which seemed to have not been used for a long time, but there were still lights around it, which seemed out of place with a dark neighborhood.
"Is there really anyone living here?"
As soon as Ming Qiaoqiao's words fell, the originally lit lights suddenly dimmed, and the surroundings fell into darkness.
But it lit up again in a few seconds.
"Probably so."
Su Wen didn't know the bottom in his heart, what if that man was a madman and told a lie?
Su Wen raised his hand and knocked on the door, knocked three times in a row, and heard someone answer inside.
