Capítulo 2033: Chapter 2033: The Castle at Night
“Not ntioning it is fine, but once it’s ntioned,” Yan Jiayu promptly picks up the person from the ground, “Is there sothing else you’ve done on ?”
It sounds like it’s not the first ti, Yan Jiayu feels a bit angry, after throwing the person aside, she releases the detector to scan her body at 360 degrees, even lifting her shoes to check, and the problem indeed lies within the shoes. She takes off the modified shoes, gripping them with both arms she forcefully breaks them in half and extracts the embedded tracking device from the sole.
“Rank-B Tracker.” The scanning instrunt provided the rating.
“No wonder you found
so quickly.” Yan Jiayu backhanded him a slap, and the man who just sat up was knocked to the ground, holding his nearly fractured shoulder, gazing at her tenderly, “Little Yu’er, I’m sincere with you!”
Yan Jiayu dismantled the tracking device and then said to Xu Huo: “Don’t believe his nonsense; he didn’t track
using characteristics, he is adept at modifying props and instrunts, previously running around with a gang of robbers.”
“Probably used so special prop.” She glanced at the man, “Earlier when I crossed districts he could find , now crossing wormhole points he can also find .”
“Really?” Xu Huo showed so interest, raised his hand, and a set of interrogation potions appeared on the table, he gestured towards the man, “Choose one?”
Qi Congming’s real na is Qi Cong, Qi Congming is a nickna given by his forr partner and current pursued object before he died, Qi Cong doesn’t mind because he thinks Yan Jiayu has principles, but he couldn’t be sure with Xu Huo, so he plunged towards Yan Jiayu’s feet, hugged her leg, and wailed, “Little Yu’er, you can’t treat
like this, I grew up without parents, was bullied growing up, wandered everywhere, sotis couldn’t even get a al, beca a player finally, only to still get bullied, beaten and scolded every day. The day you appeared, I really thought I saw a deity, turns out all my suffering all these years was just waiting for you; you are the light of my later life! You couldn’t let others bully !”
The three in the castle quietly watched his performance; none were moved by his fake story, but after listening, Yan Jiayu felt a bit troubled, she gently patted his head as if talking to herself, “What my master says must have truth, but one can be flexible, I can’t kill you, doesn’t an others can’t…next ti head to a district rampant with aliens.”
Qi Cong wiped away the forced tears and imdiately raised his hand to swear, “I promise I will never again follow you! Heaven and earth can attest!”
“Forget it,” Xu Huo interrupted them, asking Yan Jiayu, “Why did you suddenly co back?”
“Forgot sothing.” Yan Jiayu pointed at Qi Cong, “I’ll take him away with .”
“Since you’re here, you might as well be a guest.” Xu Huo instructed Mr. Dong to prepare a room for him, inford Yan Jiayu that he would keep an eye on this person, and let her and the girl in the painting enjoy themselves.
Yan Jiayu made no politeness, returned to the room once, and left.
Temporarily relieved, Qi Cong quickly drank two bottles of Self-Healing Potion, then clutching his stomach said to Mr. Dong, “Could you get
sothing to eat, I haven’t eaten all day.”
Under Xu Huo’s indication, Mr. Dong instructed the kitchen.
The wounds haven’t healed on the person who was just beaten up, yet he still began to tremble, poured himself a cup of tea, leisurely said, “I told you there are good people in this world, my luck can’t always be bad… the flowers in the garden outside sll too fragrant, a bit oppressive, I think it’s better to trim so.”
Dr. Deng happened to hear this as he ca by, he stared at Qi Cong, “Are you the new gardener?”
Qi Cong modestly put down the teacup, “I’m Miss Yan’s guest.”
Dr. Deng carefully observed him, “I just heard soone wailing, it was Yan Xiaojie who hit you, right?”
With a flash of embarrassnt, Qi Cong still maintained his composure, casually saying, “The deeper the affection, the more intense the expression, what do you know.”
Dr. Deng was embarrassed for him, picked up his small suitcase, and went upstairs.
In the study, he placed all the prepared potions on the table, “Prepared according to your requirents, having effects of pain relief, calming, and restoring strength, the darker the color, the stronger the effect.”
“Use the black-gray two containers with caution.”
He paused and added, “You want these potions because of Spirit Evolution, haste makes waste, I think it’s better to go with the flow.”
Xu Huo gave him a glance, “You’ve seen other Psychic Evolvers at Stellar dical?”
“Heard a little from others,” Dr. Deng said, “My responsibility was potions, occasionally also prepared for Super Evolvers, sotis interacting with them, Spirit Secondary Evolution is different from other evolutions. Look at ng Cun, even if starting Spirit Evolution successfully, it doesn’t an problems won’t appear later, the brain is very complex, if mishandled, it’s likely to end up like ng Cun.”
The brain itself, once issues appear, it’s hard to reverse.
“I’m not seeking rash success,” Xu Huo understood his aning, “It’s that it must be resolved.”
“Alright, I can’t help much, need potions you can find ,” Dr. Deng nodded, ntioned the person downstairs again, “It’s best not to let him enter the back laboratory.”
“I’ll inform Mr. Dong.”
Seeing off Dr. Deng, Xu Huo took out two potions and administered them into his arm, then entered the closed space reserved by Mr. Dong.
He didn’t co out for the whole day, until dark when the girl in the painting and Yan Jiayu ca back for dinner, he also didn’t co downstairs.
The girl in the painting understood Xu Huo’s situation, wanted to go in and check on Xu Huo, but Mr. Dong, under Xu Huo’s pre-arranged instructions, didn’t let her in, “Sir is busy.”
“Old Xu encountered trouble?” Yan Jiayu heard a bit, patted her chest and said, “If you need help, just ask.”
Mr. Dong thanked on behalf of Xu Huo, arranged their dinner, and sent them back to their rooms, then turned off most of the lights in the castle.
The whole castle quickly beca dim.
In the latter half of the night, Qi Cong, who had been pretending to sleep in bed, got up and stealthily left his room; he felt his way along the corridor on the second floor to the stairs and grabbed the handrail to head downstairs.
The stairway from the second to the first floor wasn’t long, but after walking three rounds, the floor was still ahead as if it were always out of reach.
Qi Cong’s expression grew more serious, staying on the stairs for a while, scanned around and didn’t see anyone, then silently turned and went back.
Unfortunately, the situation didn’t improve; the returning stairs, like descending, suddenly seed never-ending, unwilling to alarm or make much noise, he could only continue along the steps until his legs cramped.
Helplessly lying on the stairs, sweating heavily, he looked upwards at the stairway but his eyes blurred and saw a dark shadow flash by.
