The Repair Shop is on fire.
But...
How could it be on fire??
No one understood this factory better than Li Shangfeng. He didn't leave any flammable materials inside, and there were only various maintenance tools on the shelves here. Perfectly fine, how could such a big fire suddenly ignite!
Moreover, what kind of person was Li Shangfeng? With a sniff of his nose, he slled the faint scent of gasoline inside the factory. His entire person instantly seed to have exploded, roaring savagely:
"Who... who set the fire?!!"
"Who the f*ck is courting death?!!"
Although Li Shangfeng was extrely angry, there was only one thought left in his mind at this mont, and that was to find Li Wanhua... He desperately shuttled through the sea of fire, kicking open the fiercely burning door of his younger sister's room, but there were only various pieces of furniture burnt black into charcoal inside, and he didn't see the shadow of his younger sister.
Following closely, he ransacked the house again, the bathroom, the dining room... Every ti he kicked open a door, Li Shangfeng's heart was so nervous it felt like exploding. He was afraid that after opening the door, he would see a charred black corpse...
Fortunately, he didn't find Li Wanhua's corpse in the sea of fire.
But,
There were obvious traces of fighting and dragging in the house.
Li Shangfeng's mind was completely blank at this mont. Although he had initially modified his own body, it was still very superficial at present. Under the envelopnt of the blazing fire and the extre sense of suffocation, he was also approaching his limit... He didn't hesitate, and rushed headlong out of the sea of fire again.
"Cough cough cough cough... cough cough cough cough!!!"
Under the silent night sky, a charred black figure rushed out from the sea of fire.
He staggered and fell to the ground like a drunkard, coughing violently. With every cough, a large amount of black smoke and dregs sprayed out from his mouth and nose, his entire person looking incomparably in a sorry state.
But he didn't rest. After catching his breath, he stumbled and crawled up, his charred black hands fiercely grabbing a pedestrian's shoulders!
"You guys were already here early on, right?!"
"Did you see my younger sister? She is about this tall, wearing a school uniform..."
"She might have been abducted by soone... Do you know where she went???"
The passing pedestrian was obviously frightened. Being pressed so close to a figure charred black all over, he could even feel the scorching hot air sprayed out when he spoke. Those completely red and savage eyes were even more like a demon from hell.
"I... I don't know ah... It was already burning when I ca, I don't know anything."
After the passerby hurriedly replied a sentence, he turned and fled.
"Then what about you?"
"You, you, and you..."
"Which one of you saw my younger sister?! Who can tell where she went!!"
Li Shangfeng had completely broken down. He rushed toward the spectating crowd like a lunatic, but what he got in return was everyone's terrified and fearful gazes... The crowd dispersed in an uproar, no one could give him an answer.
Li Shangfeng's charred black and cracked face was already completely unrecognizable at this mont. His own Repair Shop being burned down, he didn't have the slightest reaction, only worry and anxiety for his younger sister!
"Please... I beg you guys!"
"Which one of you saw my younger sister... I beg you to tell , even if it's just a vague direction, it's fine..."
"She is my only relative, I must go save her!!"
"I beg you guys..."
"..."
Li Shangfeng's voice, from angry roaring at the beginning, gradually turned into a humble plea. This man who rejected the Taishi Division's invitation helplessly fell to his knees with a thud at this mont, waiting for even a tiny shred of possibility...
At the top of the blazing Repair Shop, Eight of Clubs saw this scene, his lips slightly pursed.
He seed to have made a certain decision, taking a step forward to walk out...
"Clubs, what are you going to do?" A society mber pulled him back.
"Right now... only we can point the direction out to him." Eight of Clubs didn't turn his head, opening his mouth in a deep voice.
"You saw it too, the strength of those few people who abducted Li Wanhua isn't weak... The current Li Shangfeng is only 2nd-rank, guiding him over there is just sending him to his death! You're harming him doing this!"
"Letting him watch helplessly as his younger sister is killed but unable to do anything, this is what's harming him!!" Eight of Clubs answered resolutely and decisively. "Better to be a dead soul with a clear conscience than a coward living a useless life... What he pursues is exactly this kind of life."
That society mber froze in place.
Eight of Clubs' illusory body lightly floated down from the top of the Repair Shop... He didn't go look for Li Shangfeng. There was no glass here, nor a radio, so there was fundantally no possibility of them communicating.
His toes tapped lightly in the nothingness, his figure slowly coming to a standstill on a dim white streetlight lampshade.
"Wanhua..."
"I beg you guys..."
The fire at the Repair Shop had already been extinguished.
The commoners who were originally spectating had also all been scared away by Li Shangfeng.
Thick black smoke rolled. In front of the empty Repair Shop ruins, a charred black figure was currently lowering his head, kneeling blankly on the ground like a corpse. Only endless remorse and pain remained in his eyes.
If he hadn't left late at night, then this kind of thing wouldn't have happened... In the final analysis, he failed to protect Li Wanhua well.
Just as Li Shangfeng felt guilty to the extre, a burst of slight electrical current sound sounded from ahead.
Zzt zzt zzt...
Sizzle!
Li Shangfeng slowly raised his head blankly, only to see that on a certain nearby street, a streetlight began to flicker, bright and dim uncertainly...
The dim white light was like so mysterious signal, lighting up, extinguishing, lighting up, extinguishing under the night sky...
When it finally lit up,
The light had already turned a bizarre blood red!
Li Shangfeng was slightly startled.
Following closely, was the second lamp, the third lamp...
On that empty desolate small road, the dim white light was rapidly replaced by red, the winding red snake spreading among the blocks, all the way to the end of the night sky.
This unbelievable scene made Li Shangfeng completely freeze. That winding red light was like a signal specially left behind for him by the heavens, letting him find a direction at his most despairing and helpless mont...
Li Shangfeng didn't know why those lights would turn red. He couldn't even know if this was an accident or soone using this thod to help him... But undoubtedly, he at this ti was like a despairing drowning person. When any shred of possibility appeared, he would grasp it at all costs!
Just like this, as if urged by ghosts and gods, Li Shangfeng stood up from the ruins, stepped out with his charred black legs, and rushed following the red streetlights!!
The scarlet roaming snake spanning across eras rapidly extended under the night sky;
The black shadow sprinted wildly at the boundary between reality and illusion, chasing the tail of destiny...
Phantoms from the previous world guided the youth Li Shangfeng one after another under the night sky. This ti they were no longer objects of mutual sharp-tongued mockery, but the youth's final guardians.
"Co... This ti, you will not be left with regrets." Eight of Clubs watched Li Shangfeng's stubborn running figure under the night sky, murmuring to himself,
"This ti..."
"We, are all behind you."
