spouse

Chen Yingsheng didn't take a taxi. She scanned a shared bicycle and rode quickly back to the detective agency.

There was a reporter blocking the door of the office. The reporter directly stuffed his business card into Chen Yingsheng's hand and chased her to introduce himself, hoping to get an interview opportunity.

Chen Yingsheng answered casually and opened the door of the office.

She had been away from home for a whole morning and didn’t know whether her boyfriend had prepared dinner for her when she came back. In her dream, the aroma of tomato and beef brisket lingered in her nose. It would have been nice if her boyfriend had stewed beef.

Chen Yingsheng leaned against the kitchen door with a smile.

A man who looked very much like Zuo Xufei was busy in the kitchen wearing gloves.

His voice was full of charm: "Dear, you are back"

"I'm back, what are we having for dinner?"

"I'll make whatever you want to eat."

Looking from the side, you can see the man's beautifully curved jawline, straight nose bridge and deep eye sockets.

His eyes were deep and passionate, his hair was gelled, and he smelled of nice cologne.

A high-end version of Zuo Xufei. Chen Yingsheng commented silently.

She changed her slippers and walked into the kitchen, naturally picked up the plastic bag full of kitchen waste, and turned to go out.

Her gentle boyfriend stopped her and said, "What are you doing? Dinner is almost ready."

"I'm going to take out the trash."

The boyfriend looked down and saw the slippers on her feet, and said lovingly: "Go, come back early."

Chen Yingsheng stepped into the cold winter wearing slippers, and then she ran as fast as she could, and the slippers could not slow her down.

She made many detours along the way, made sure no one was following her, and ran straight into the nearby police station.

The police officer on duty at the police station was startled, and then immediately asked:

"What's the emergency?"

Chen Yingsheng didn't answer. She took out her cell phone and called Zuo Xufei.

No one answered.

She called Lao Wang again and he picked up the phone after one ring.

"My lover is at my house."

"We have stopped the lunatic. It's nothing urgent. I'll go first. What did you say? Your home is your home."

"Agape's lover is at my house." Chen Yingsheng repeated.

"I'll ask Ma Yushuang to go over there immediately."

Lover, a super-powered criminal who murdered Sully, a core member of Agape, whose superpower is devoted love.

He can attract others to fall in love with him, and when the love is strong enough, he will turn his imaginary fantasy world into reality at the cost of the victim's life.

Chen Yingsheng didn't know how he met the conditions for activating his superpowers.

Previously, the Superpowers Management Bureau speculated that the activation condition was to fall in love with him first and then trigger the superpowers.

It now appears that this speculation can be overturned.

Chen Yingsheng briefly explained the situation to the police officer at the police station. The police officer was verifying the situation with his superiors and asked her to sit in the lobby first.

She hadn't sat there for a while when Ma Yushuang teleported over.

"Walk."

The two men returned to the office. The room was empty and there was a fire on the stove.

Ma Yushuang said: "Protect the scene. I'll call the technical detective to see if we can collect some fingerprints and hair."

The Shit Muppet stood on the table and looked at them in confusion.

Chen Yingsheng cooperated with the technical investigation team to check the house, but did not find any useful clues.

Before leaving, Ma Yushuang said embarrassment: "Is it unsafe here?"

Chen Yingsheng replied: "I'll go live somewhere else first."

After sending the police away, Chen Yingsheng took out her suitcase, packed two pieces of clothes, and went out with the cat. Then she remembered that she had to send her car for repair.

She opened her phone's address book, stared at the colorful address book for a while, then exited the address book and entered the taxi-hailing page.

At this moment, she suddenly wanted to find someone to talk to, but the desire to talk and that little bit of grievance were quickly suppressed by reason.

The car didn't arrive, and a familiar voice sounded: "What are you waiting for?"

Chen Yingsheng stared blankly at the woman in front of him, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses: "You've returned to China"

"Yes! Don't you recognize me, Zhou Zhirong? I came to find you as soon as I got off the plane. Surprise? Let's go in and talk."

Zhou Zhirong has been Chen Yingsheng's good friend since childhood, and Chen Yingsheng is very happy.

She said: “It’s not convenient to go in.”

"Why"

"There are bugs. We just sprayed the insecticide. Let's find a place to talk."

"It's a big bug in the middle of winter." Zhou Zhirong took the cat from her hand with a smile, "If you don't want to talk about it, forget it."

The pooped doll twisted twice in Zhou Zhirong's arms, then jumped to the ground and walked on its own.

Chen Yingsheng was inexplicably nervous. She always felt that if she didn't tell the truth, she would lose a precious friendship.

After thinking about it, there is nothing that cannot be said. Perhaps the community police will go door to door to remind everyone to be careful of suspicious men.

So Chen Yingsheng said: "Superpower criminals have been in there, the office is not safe anymore, I plan to find a place to live first."

Zhou Zhirong's worry and fear were written on her face. She immediately picked up the cat and ran forward pulling Chen Yingsheng's suitcase.

Chen Yingsheng thought it was funny, but he followed her.

The two of them ran for a long distance, and only stopped when the poop puppet started meowing loudly.

Chen Yingsheng panted and laughed: "Listen, it's scolding you."

"I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen, the tortoise is talking nonsense, the cat is bad and I am good."

"Others are the masters of clear soup, and you are the master of muddy soup."

The Shit Doll cursed even louder, and Chen Yingsheng laughed until her stomach hurt. She secretly vowed to herself that she must cherish this friendship.

They found a random restaurant on the roadside to eat, and Zhou Zhirong helped Chen Yingsheng recall many interesting things in the past.

It feels so good to have friends, Chen Yingsheng thought absentmindedly.

After dinner, Zhou Zhirong suggested going to Danjiang City Anding Hospital.

“What to do there?”

"Visiting my mother."

Chen Yingsheng looked at Zhou Zhirong blankly.

Zhou Zhirong said softly: "Have you forgotten that we visited her together before, when we were still in school, and she could never remember what grade we were in."

"It was during our first year of high school. She thought we were still in junior high school and was worried that we wouldn't be able to get into the same school after the high school entrance exam." Chen Yingsheng immediately recalled the past.

"Let's go again. We can visit her together and ask her to guess what grade we are in. She definitely won't be able to guess."

Chen Yingsheng shook his head: "Something happened at Anding Hospital yesterday, and all the patients in the third inpatient building were transferred to other hospitals."

"Let's go to the inpatient building first and ask where she was transferred to."

So strange.

A vague thought flashed through Chen Yingsheng's mind: Zhou Zhirong didn't say that her mother lived in the third inpatient building, so why could I be so sure?

Another thought quickly popped up: Promise her! Promise her! Go with her, you must cherish the hard-earned friendship.

So Chen Yingsheng said: "Okay, let's go now."

The two people quickly arrived at Anding Hospital.

The outside of the building was covered in broken glass, and through the large windows on the first floor you could see the construction waste inside.

Chen Yingsheng stopped in front of the third inpatient building. She was very uneasy: "There is a cordon outside, there won't be anyone inside. Let's go to the nurse station in the next inpatient building and ask."

"No, I want to go in and take a look."

Zhou Zhirong said this without even turning his head, then he ran through the cordon and rushed into the gate.

"Zhirong!"

Chen Yingsheng stared at Zhou Zhirong's back in a daze, feeling a little unbelievable. Why was her friend completely different from her and would rush straight into the danger zone?

But Zhou Zhirong had already rushed in, and Chen Yingsheng had to chase after him.

As she entered the cordon, her cell phone rang. It was Zuo Xufei calling:

"Where do you have a mole? Their target is—"

A ripple passed through the space, and the communication signal was completely cut off. Or maybe it wasn't cut off, but Chen Yingsheng came to a space that was completely disconnected from this world, so the signal couldn't be transmitted.

In an instant, day and night reversed, and the day in the alien space was as bright as flames. The strong light left no place for anything in the world to hide.

There were too many questions worthy of Chen Yingsheng's consideration, but when she looked at the "building" in front of her, her mind went blank.

Is that... the Holy Pillar?

A pillar of flesh and blood composed of climbing humans, who clung to it until their death, looking up longingly, begging for mercy from the shrine above.

Superpowers are something worth getting.

Chen Yingsheng couldn't understand it. She had seen many useless superpowers.

Even if these people climbed up the holy pillar, saw Hong Jinsheng at the top, drank his blood and awakened successfully, there is no guarantee that the abilities they obtained would be as powerful and useful as they imagined.

They simply regard superpowers as a ticket to a new world. No, they are not a ticket to a new world.

A word appeared in Chen Yingsheng's mind - Noah's Ark.

Super powers are like tickets to Noah's Ark, fought over by believers who want to use them to escape the end of the world.

The shock brought by the towering holy pillar made Chen Yingsheng unable to recover for a long time. She forced herself to look away and began to think about the problem she was facing.

First is Zhou Zhirong. Although her brain forces her to cherish friendship, her reason tells her that she has never had a close friend.

She has them all, including ordinary friends at school, business partners, or like-minded friends while handling cases.

The only thing she doesn't have is a close friend who grew up with her and with whom she can talk about anything, so she envied the friendship between Wanting and Liu Tianyi so much in Liu Tianyi's strange stories.

Chen Yingsheng looked at the holy pillar in the distance and she had a bold inference: Zhou Zhirong was her lover, and she was the female reporter who handed Chen Yingsheng her business card at the door of the office.

The conditions for activating superpowers are likely to include "physical contact" and "being rejected".

Chen Yingsheng perfectly triggered her lover's superpowers. As soon as she entered the door, she saw her non-existent boyfriend, who looked like Zuo Xufei.

Li Ying previously explained that the lovers the victims saw looked different, but without exception they all looked like the perfect partners in their minds.

Then what is Zuo Xufei like in her mind?

Chen Yingsheng interrupted the wandering thoughts in his mind and stopped his brain from thinking about anything related to Zuo Xufei.

She had never been in love in her life, but if she had, she would have noticed that she secretly fell in love with Zuo Xufei.

So she immediately broke free from her lover's superpowers, escaped from the office under the pretext of throwing away garbage, and called Lao Wang for help.

While seeking help, the lover discovered that Chen Yingsheng had not returned home for a long time. Realizing that he had been exposed, he quickly fled.

No, she didn't run away, she hid around the office. Or maybe she didn't need to hide, because her lover was a female reporter.

From the beginning to the end, the lover who hurt countless women in the name of love was a woman. Only women know what kind of love their same sex needs, and only women can play the role of the perfect lover in the eyes of their same sex.

The lover is a person with super powers who is extremely good at controlling and playing with people's emotions.

When she found out that her boyfriend's approach was not working, she immediately changed to another one.

When Chen Yingsheng was staring at the address book in a daze, hoping to find someone to talk to, she seized the opportunity and became their close friend.

She took the cat for physical contact and asked to join the agency only to be rejected, both of which satisfied the conditions for activating her superpowers.

Her superpower is not just love. The so-called "devoted love" includes love, friendship and family affection, which is all the love in the world.

Chen Yingsheng felt a chill. She couldn't imagine what kind of person the patriarch was who could command such a person with super powers.
