Chapter Ninety-Five: A Burning Sight
In the courtyard shrouded in night, the quiet wind blows through every flower that blooms and sways in the garden.
Most of the luxury cars parked between the roads and passages have already driven away, and the few cars that remain are like some kind of large decorations, so that the vast area in front of the door does not look empty.
The protruding corners of the walls of the buildings cast shadows of fangs and claws on the ground, and there was an antique brass street lamp at intervals, and the night was as hazy as fog, and the incandescent lights in the lampshade floated in the fog, like a small moon suspended on the ground.
The woman with long white blonde hair was standing under the street lamp.
Wearing a bright red dress, her skirt that wrapped her calves fluttered slightly in the wind, like a raging fire dancing in the night.
The moonlight falling from above was cold and bright, which set off the other party not like a mortal person.
She was looking up at the moon, as if she were gazing alone at the vast and distant night sky, wandering in panic, a gesture that added a melancholy and hazy atmosphere to the woman.
When Yan Jingxing and Xie Yuzhi walked out of the hall door, they saw such an amazing scene.
Just when he had a feeling of looking stupid, there was a soft "smack" next to him.
Now it can be determined that it is indeed Xie Yuzhi who is speechless. She is protesting in a relatively silent way.
As I said before, Miss Xie rarely has this kind of gaffe......
And until now, he finally came back to his senses:
- Is this jealousy?
Although it may be a little different from the jealous appearance of the girl he imagined, she is indeed silently expressing her dissatisfaction, whether it is to him or to the big sister.
Yan Jingxing was secretly funny, they were still junior high school students, but now they are engaged again, and they are jealous of outsiders or something......
There is no doubt that for Miss Xie, these things are also uncharted territory that she has never touched, so she feels at a loss, and even her reactions are so cute and clumsy.
So, he still thinks that the two of them should honestly start from the beginning of their relationship-
…… Ahem. To get back to the point, Yan Jingxing didn't have any special thoughts in his heart about this big sister who fell from the sky.
After all, the two didn't know each other before, so where could they have any other deeper connections? He didn't dare to think about it, it was nothing more than some thoughts that normal people would have, such as "she looks so beautiful", "she has a good temperament", "she has never seen it before".
However, perhaps it was because she always behaved in a gaffe that she made Miss Xie feel uneasy, especially since the two were officially engaged tonight.
Thinking of this, he quickly made a decision:
It is difficult to avoid the reaction of a person subconsciously, so if he feels that he can't hold it anymore at that time, then immediately activate the "warrior instinct", which can force him to calm down, and he will not be exposed.
It's not cheating, it's a way to use your abilities wisely and flexibly.
"You're here."
Qiu Qimeng noticed their approach, and she withdrew her gaze to the night sky, a happy smile reappearing on her beautiful face.
Yan Jingxing suddenly felt that something was strange.
Is something good happening? Why did this big sister smile when she saw them? Or was she and I ...... before? Or does Yuzhi know?
"Jing Xing, the person she's been watching is you."
The eldest lady suddenly whispered.
"Huh, what?"
"I've been watching this person since she came along. This conclusion can now be drawn. ”
Xie Yuzhi's tone still seemed calm.
"I just wanted to remind you that this woman's kindness is for you, and it has nothing to do with me. Thinking from this premise, do you have any guesses worth considering? ”
“…… No. ”
Yan Jingxing couldn't help but take a closer look and found that it seemed to be really the case.
Big sister, although her eyes seem to be looking at two people at the same time, the focus of her gaze always falls on her intentionally or unintentionally.
- It's like ...... Sneak a peek at yourself?
Originally, a big beauty like this should only be someone else's share of peeking at her, but when it was put on the other party, it was the other way around:
The eldest sister seemed to be quietly observing him with some kind of excitement.
Moreover, Yan Jingxing could feel it, and the smile on her face was sincere.
So, although I never knew this woman named "Qiu Qimeng", the other party was different, and she did seem to have a special affection for herself—or rather, a strange passion.
He snorted.
Could it be ...... Did you really think wrong?
He subconsciously looked at his fiancée beside him and said unconsciously:
"—but I really don't know her, do I?"
Xie Yuzhi glared at him again for some reason.
"Of course I do, stupid."
When the two of them were talking in a low voice, Qiu Qimeng had already walked up to them.
"First of all, I'll make sure."
Big sister said.
"You're the manipulator of the 'archetype' of the body, aren't you?"
She looked at Yan Jingxing again, this time she was looking at it brightly.
“…… I'm a possessor. ”
Yan Jingxing said. He felt that since the other party came to the door, there was no need to hide it.
"But I don't know what a 'prototype' is."
"Hmm."
Qiu Qimeng nodded and looked at Xie Yuzhi again.
"As for this ...... Girl, are you a 'king'? ”
Xie Yuzhi's slender brows furrowed slightly, as if she was confirming something, showing a thoughtful expression, before replying:
“…… Why do you know? The scene of Jing Xing using the body may be seen by unrelated people, but I have only used the ability on the person named Wu Zhifei and his subordinates. To be able to come to this conclusion only means that you are in league with them, right? ”
Having said this, she no longer concealed her expressionless face just now, and directly showed hostility and vigilance; After Yan Jingxing heard this, he was also quietly mentally prepared, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the other party's every move.
"Clever. I don't know if it's my prejudice, but I always think that the people who can be chosen to be the 'king' have their brains spinning quite quickly. ”
However, the big sister on the other side still looked relaxed, she opened her arms and replied with a smile:
"However, I didn't intend to hide it from the two of you. I came in good faith, so I will not lie to you. Of course, if I'm asked a question that shouldn't be answered, I'll be silent, and that's it. ”
"So, you came all the way to us just out of good intentions to answer our questions?"
Xie Yuzhi did not hide the doubts and ridicule in her tone.
"Still in our ...... of all your people After cleaning up? ”
"Haha, even if you come from the 'same place', it does not necessarily mean 'the same will' or 'one position', young king, you are a precocious girl, you should be able to understand what I mean. As for the purpose......
Qiu Qimeng put her hand on her chest. This action made Yan Jingxing's eyes once again quietly focus on the perfect upper circumference outlined by the big sister's bandeau dress, and the full furrow shone as white as milk in the moonlight.
Well, is it time to use the "warrior instinct"?
He thought crankily, it shouldn't be enough, why don't you watch it for a while......
After all, once the warrior instinct is activated, he will not have emotional ups and downs such as excitement and happiness.
"I don't deny that I did come here for my own personal purposes."
Qiu Qimeng said, those charming and bright eyes flashed with unprecedented dazzling brilliance, and the burning gaze was undisguised, firmly nailed to his body.
"I came here to see you this time, Yan Jingxing, the first human to control the 'unusable body'."
"-Wait, 'unusable'?"
Yan Jingxing was originally disturbed by the eldest sister's overly enthusiastic gaze and felt overwhelmed, but suddenly came back to his senses and couldn't help but speak.
"Isn't that right? I saw it in the body—"
He stopped in the middle of his words, because he realized that the words that followed involved the secret of his physical abilities, as if he could not share them with outsiders.
However, it turned out that this was unfounded for him, because the eldest sister quickly picked up his words.
"—you see someone else's memory. And you can also use the abilities that others have left behind, right? ”
"You...... You know? ”
Yan Jingxing's eyes widened in surprise.
"Could it be—"
There is more than one body in this world, and all other bodies have the same experience?
"Looks like you've misunderstood."
Qiu Qimeng shook her head.
"Actually, you're the only one who has been able to use prototypes on record. There were test subjects, but they all died because they couldn't control the prototype of the rampage. ”
"As for the memories and abilities you see that have been left behind......"
Her words paused slightly, and the corners of her lips suddenly hooked.
This chuckle was different from the previous one, the amplitude was very slight, but it seemed to contain a different flavor.
"—those are actually the 'legacy' left behind by the other elements that have been devoured by the archetype."
Engulf...... Other Body...... Heritage?
Yan Jingxing fell into confusion, and Qiu Qimeng's words did not end here.
"As weapons, the bodies have the fate of fighting each other, fighting each other, and devouring each other, so as to constantly evolve their bodies; As a result, we, the chosen 'dressers', have also inherited this fate. ”
Inadvertently, the eldest sister revealed her true identity in a very casual tone, and she smiled and stretched out her hand towards Yan Jingxing, as if inviting him to dance under the moon.
"But so far, all the bodies need to merge with other intelligent beings in order to exert their own power, and only the individuals with the code name archetypes, who have appeared and disappeared many times in the history of the earth, have killed more than a dozen bodies and dressers by instinct before they are fully integrated, and have never been conquered by the will of other life forms so far, which is a real ......"
"—the most vicious weapon."
