Chapter 213
I watched Wang Yuqing hurriedly walk through the three-way intersection, disappear into the pitch-black alley.
Yuan Caidie was full of questions. What was there to see when everyone had left?
"Don't make a sound, it's coming." A low voice sounded next to his ear.
Sure enough, there was movement at the three-way intersection again. Three or four men in tank tops emerged from the dark den. They followed stealthily and crept into the alley where Wang Yuqing disappeared.
"Black dogs?" Who in the city is not afraid of these black dogs? If you are targeted by these black dogs, you will have no peace of mind.
Yuan Caidie was still feeling thankful for what happened last time, as if these people had forgotten about it and had not come to cause trouble in the team again. Now she unexpectedly saw them here.
"What are they doing following Mr. Yuqing? It's definitely not a good thing. Hurry and warn Mr. Yuqing."
"That young reporter," Lu Daju drawled. "He must be an anti-Japanese worker. I don't know which side he's on. He stole some information from the short guy who was building the villa the day he saved you. That's why he was followed."
Yuan Caidie became anxious when she heard this: "Shouldn't we quickly tell him to run away? These black dogs are so fawning over those foreigners that they'd like to see them as their fathers and be filial to them."
Just as he had finished speaking, he heard a commotion in the alley.
"stop."
"Stand still."
"Got you."
"Hey, where are the people?"
"Did you see him come in just now?"
There were a few cries of the black dog barking, accompanied by the sound of a wooden door being smashed open. A black shadow was seen crawling on the wall and climbing over, followed by the black dog's barking and cursing.
"That's Mr. Yuqing, go and save him." Yuan Caidie, who was standing in the shadow of the stilts on the roof, wanted to go down anxiously, but as soon as she moved, she heard the sound of tiles cracking under her feet, and then she remembered that she was on the roof.
"Don't move around. It's not good to break the tiles on someone else's roof."
"That Mr. Yuqing..."
The big monster behind him spoke in a steady voice, showing no sign of being anxious or trying to save anyone. He was just a human and didn't even have the ability to get down from the roof.
"Found it, it's over there, chase it." Several black dogs quickly discovered the figure that was escaping over the wall.
Yuan Caidie's heart began to rise again. There was quite a bit of commotion in the alley. No one in this densely populated area would come out to watch the excitement late at night. The few houses that had oil lamps on before also turned off the lights. No one wanted to get into trouble.
"Haha, isn't it quite lively?" Lu Daju did not forget his original intention. He came here to take people to watch the fun.
"Mr. Yuqing is about to be arrested. Isn't he someone you know?"
"So what if he knows her? That's the job he chose, and he must be aware of the risks he faces." Lu Daju still brought people to the rooftop to watch the excitement, the real spy war.
An anxious Yuan Caidie was furious when she heard this: "I'm just a useless actor, but I also know that Mr. Yuqing is a respectable journalist, much higher in status than me. Just like those students and teachers who are parading for no apparent reason, I don't understand, but I also know they are doing something great."
"I don't know if what they did is right. It's too shameful for these people to be captured by those black dogs. I don't have the ability to save them, and I don't know how to save them. I still ask Mr. Lu to help. I am willing to sing for Mr. Lu for the rest of my life."
Uh, why did he suddenly become an angry young man? It’s not that he didn’t want to save her, he just wanted to tease her. If he was a step slower, he would get angry. He was quite composed before: “Forget it, you know I don’t like opera. If you sing opera with me for the rest of my life, I will be bored to death.”
"You..." Yuan Caidie was really angry. This monster was too annoying. It was you who brought him up, and you still looked down on him. It would have been fine if you just looked down on him, but you spoke so directly.
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang out, drawing Yuan Caidie's attention back to the alley below, as she was about to explode with rage.
"Bang." Another shot, but the figure running in front was still agile.
"Stop." The black dog behind him chased and shot with a gun, but there was no way to be accurate in the dark alley.
Yuan Caidie's body felt lighter and she was carried down from the roof by Lu Daju.
The monster's voice came from my ear: "Don't move here, the show I'm taking you to see isn't over yet."
"?" Before the question mark appeared on Yuan Caidie's head, she felt something empty behind her and the big monster disappeared.
Did the monster go to rescue people? Yuan Caidie quickly looked in the direction where Wang Yuqing and several black dogs were chasing. The place where he landed was not far away, and she could just see the backs of the black dogs chasing them outside the alley.
"roar!"
Huh? The deafening roar of the beast made Yuan Caidie's mind go blank. What happened?
The people present were stunned by the sound and were momentarily silent. A few screams were heard from a small, dilapidated house nearby.
It took a few seconds before I realized that the dark night sky above my head had turned golden and bright.
A few people looked up in a daze. In the moonless night sky, a giant lion glowing with golden light stood in the air. A man in a black robe sat on the lion's back with his legs crossed. He said lazily and displeasedly to those below him, "Chasing and fighting is fine, but why are you setting off such loud things? Isn't Nian a bit quieter at night?"
The big monster that had been seen once before floated in the air, looking at the four stupid black dogs with his eyes lowered.
Ergou was stunned. How could he encounter such a demon? Several wizards had performed rituals during the day and said they had killed the demon, yet this monster was still flying in front of him.
The next second, he felt a pain on the back of his hand holding the gun, and instinctively loosened his grip on the gun.
"Okay, stop making so much noise and continue."
Looking at the monster in the sky, it lay on the back of a lion and slowly disappeared into the darkness. Finally, the golden light behind the cross also disappeared, and all that was left was the dark night sky.
"Monster...monster...monster...monster." One of the little ones could hardly speak clearly.
"You little devil, I saw it all." Er Gouzi shuddered, the back of his hand was shaking with pain. He wondered if his hand would be crippled.
Another rather naive little brother, after a moment of daze, said in a muffled voice, "Should we still chase her?"
"I'm not chasing you! The monsters are out. Are you going to die?"
"But the monster said we should continue and stop arguing."
"Your mother is an idiot. We are just trying to make a living, not risking our lives. The monsters are out. What's the point of chasing them?" Several people were almost scared to pee. They had seen with their own eyes the cruelty of the monster. None of the short businessmen who were cut into pieces could be put back together.
The black dogs didn't waste any time and immediately ran out of the alley, almost peeing their pants with fright.
"But the mayor asked us to arrest someone to take the blame. If that person from some company comes, we won't be able to explain." A younger brother said worriedly.
"Let them go and ask the monster for an explanation. So many people saw the monster appear. It has nothing to do with us. Besides, the man has already escaped." Er Gouzi rubbed the back of his hand vigorously. Fortunately, his hand was still there. "The monster didn't kill us, nor did it cut off our hands. Let those dwarfs ask the monster for an explanation. I don't believe they can survive. The monster said that outsiders are not allowed to enter here. Anyone seen will be killed."
In a store on the outskirts of the slums, a bald man who was huddled in a room chanting sutras for evening prayers stared in amazement at the sky outside which had returned to darkness.
"Master, there really is a monster!"
