Chapter 6: Breakup, Declaration of War, and Escape
"Go to sleep now. When you wake up, you will remember everything that happened today, including the fact that I used mind control on you." Ji An's expression was shadowy and unclear in the moonlight, with a sense of weirdness.
He wanted Tang Tang to remember everything, to remember how he had snatched away the necklace that she treasured so much. But then she knew clearly that she couldn't get the necklace back from him, and she was in agony.
As for how he would save himself? He had his own way.
In fact, as long as he stopped trusting them, they couldn't hurt him at all.
Tang Tang closed her eyes obediently and fell into a deep sleep. Her standing body fell down with a thud. The sound was painful to hear, but Ji An ignored it.
Ji An turned around and climbed out of the window he came from. Just as he stood still, someone came out from the back of the room.
"Who?" Ji An narrowed his eyes slightly, with a dangerous light in his eyes.
"Mr. Ji, I'm Tang Tang's cousin, Tang Ning." Tang Ning raised her hands to show that she had no weapons in her hands and was not dangerous at all.
"I didn't mean to follow you. I heard some noise in Tang Tang's room, but I didn't dare to go over and ask. You know, Tang Tang treats me very badly. She treats me like a dog that she can vent her anger on. Then I came out to see what was going on through the window, and I accidentally saw everything."
"Including my abnormality?" Ji An did not directly mention his ability, fearing that Tang Ning had not seen or heard it and was just trying to trick him.
"Yes, I heard her say that you are a psychic." Tangning admitted.
"Aren't you afraid?" Tang Tang and Chen Chen were so close to him, and they were both afraid after knowing this. Chen Chen even began to suspect that he loved him because he was mentally suggested. But it was clearly him who pursued him relentlessly in the beginning.
"I'm not afraid." Tangning answered without hesitation, "I think Tang Tang is much scarier than you.
She is the one who is best at disguising herself, a beast in human form.
She hated me and always thought that before the end of the world, I was showing off my superiority in front of her by relying on my good family background.
But I don't have any. Her family is poor, so she buys the cheapest vegetables of the day. My family is well-off, so I don't have to think about these things. I buy whatever I want to eat.
She also thought that I went to college just to make her look worse in comparison with her in front of relatives and friends.
But what's wrong with me studying hard? What was she doing while I was studying so hard?
Playing with other kids, she was only in her teens and had just started primary school, but she already knew how to date.
How can you study well if you spend all your time studying male classmates? "
Tangning said angrily, "I never knew being excellent could be a mistake! It's as if the excellence of hard-working people is meant to highlight the unbearableness of lazy people. But in fact, hard-working people spend all their time improving themselves, so they don't have time to pay attention to lazy people. Hard-working people just want to be better themselves."
"What do you mean by telling me this?" Ji An knew his cousin Tang Tang, but he had never met her before.
It can be said that apart from Chen Chen and Tang Tang, Ji An does not contact anyone in the base.
Perhaps because he grew up in an orphanage and witnessed too many ugly relationships in human nature, Ji An dislikes the human species from the bottom of his heart. He rejects all contact with humans and would avoid it if possible.
This resulted in Ji An not being familiar with anyone in the base except Chen Chen and Tang Tang.
Naturally, he was not familiar with Tang Ning. All the news about Tang Ning was told to him by Tang Tang.
Tang Tang said that her cousin was a bad and vain person, and always bullied her before the end of the world.
She also said that no matter what happened in the past, now that the end of the world has come, she and her cousin are the only ones left in the Tang family, so forget about the unpleasantness in the past. Now that she has the ability, she will always take care of her.
At that time, Ji An thought Tang Tang was really kind. Little did he know that Tang Tang let Tang Ning live with her just to take revenge on her and humiliate her.
Tang Ning said, "Mr. Ji, I know that you treated Tang Tang like that just now, and you didn't erase her memory. I will definitely not stay in the base anymore. I want to leave with you."
Ji An was silent.
Tangning was afraid that Ji An would misunderstand that she was threatening him with this secret, so she immediately said, "I don't mean to threaten you. In fact, I have always wanted to leave, but I just don't have the courage to do it alone.
As long as you are here, I will dare.
Of course, if you think I am a burden and don't want to take me with you, I swear I will never reveal your secret."
Ji An hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Okay."
Tang Tang must be upset when she wakes up and finds out that Tang Ning has escaped. Ji An is willing to do anything to make her feel upset.
"Go get your weapons." Ji An said, "I can take you with me, but I'm not responsible for your safety."
"I understand. As long as you are willing to take me with you, I will be very happy. Life or death is my fate." Tangning continued, "Mr. Ji, can you give me a few minutes to take care of some personal matters?"
"What do you want to do?" Ji An asked.
"Although I can't bring myself to kill Tang Tang, I want to give her a good beating as a way of thanking her for taking care of me these days."
"Three minutes, quick decision."
"Yes." Tang Ning's eyes lit up, no longer showing the dull look from before.
She ran back quickly, tied up Tang Tang, gagged her, and beat her severely.
During this time, Tang Tang woke up in pain and found that the person who hit her was Tang Ning. She couldn't believe it!
Is this person crazy for daring to hit her? Does she still want to stay in the base?
Tang Ning vented his anger, picked up an axe as a weapon, and left with Ji An.
In the night, the figures of the two quickly disappeared.
The next morning, Chen Chen found that Ji An was not in the room. He didn't take it seriously and thought he had gone out.
But Ji An didn't come back until the evening, and he suddenly remembered that Tang Tang hadn't come to see him for a day. Usually, Tang Tang would pester him as soon as she opened her eyes. Chen Chen originally thought that Tang Tang was guilty and hadn't figured out how to tell him about the necklace. Now it seems that the two of them disappeared at the same time, and something must have happened.
Thinking of a possibility, Chen Chen's expression changed immediately, and he immediately ran towards Tang Tang's house.
"Tang Tang, Tang Tang..." Chen Chen shouted loudly as he opened the door.
"Wuwuwu..." A sobbing sound came from the bedroom.
Chen Chen ran over quickly and kicked open the half-open bedroom door. He saw Tang Tang lying on the ground in her pajamas with a bruised face.
"Who beat you like this?" Chen Chen hurried over to help Tang Tang up, and took out the ropes on her body and the smelly socks that were stuffed in her mouth and had not been washed for who knows how long and were emitting a foul odor.
"Ugh... It was Tangning! The one who hit me was Tangning." Tang Tang lost all her innocent and kind image at this moment. Her face was hideous and crazy. She screamed like a lunatic, "Where is that bitch Tangning? I'm going to kill her! No, I'm not going to kill her. I'm going to torture her so hard that she can neither live nor die. Then I'll sell her to be a prostitute. She'll only be played with by the ugliest and oldest men for the rest of her life!"
"Okay, I promise you." Chen Chen now just wanted to know where Ji An had gone, but he still had to comfort Tang Tang first.
"Tang, have you seen Ji An? He's gone."
Tang Tang, who seemed crazy in the last second, became as quiet as a chicken and looked panicked the next second after hearing Ji An's name.
Just by looking at her like this, Chen Chen knew that she must have seen Ji An. "You have seen Ji An, where did he go?"
Tang Tang shook her head and said guiltily: "I don't, I don't know."
Thinking of something, Chen Chen immediately looked at Tang Tang's neck, and sure enough, there was nothing there.
"Where is your necklace? Was it snatched away by Ji An?" Seeing that Tang Tang still refused to tell the truth at this time, Chen Chen's face turned ugly and his attitude became very tough.
"Tang Tang, tell the truth!" Chen Chen threatened, "Otherwise, don't blame me for not caring about you anymore!"
Tang Tang was really scared now. If Chen Chen really gave up on her and she lost her dual abilities of space and healing, how would she survive in the apocalypse?
"The necklace was taken away by Ji An. He broke into my room in the middle of the night last night, used his psychic powers to control my mind, and then took away my necklace." Tang Tang bit her lip, tears instantly streaming down her face. She was staggering, looking pitiful and very sympathetic.
This was Tang Tang's usual method. As long as she used this method of injustice on a man, no one could escape, including Chen Chen.
But it didn't work this time. Not to mention that Tang Tang's face looked like a pig's head after being beaten by Tang Ning, which was not aesthetically pleasing, Chen Chen was extremely anxious.
Chen Chen had no intention of showing mercy to a beautiful woman. He grabbed Tang Tang's shoulders so hard that she whimpered in pain. "What secret does that necklace have? Tell me quickly!"
Tang Tang swallowed and didn't dare to struggle. "That necklace is actually a space..." Under Chen Chen's vicious eyes, Tang Tang didn't dare to continue speaking.
"So this is how you got your spatial ability?" Chen Chen couldn't believe what he heard.
Ji An had long guessed that the necklace must be extraordinary and might be hiding some secret, but he didn't expect it to be such a big secret!
Tang Tang is so bold that she even dares to use a necklace to disguise her spatial ability!
Chen Chen wanted to crush Tang Tang to death. "Why didn't you tell me about this earlier? Do you know how important space is to a base?"
Such an important thing was lost, but Tang Tang didn't tell him immediately and hurriedly retrieved it. He even tried to muddle through and was unwilling to tell the truth.
What on earth is going on in her mind!
"I don't want to either." Tang Tang shrank her neck in fear, "Who knew Ji An would dare to come and rob in the middle of the night!"
"You don't want to? Don't you know? Didn't I remind you yesterday?" Chen Chen was going crazy. How could she have the nerve to shirk responsibility after she lost the space? "Why didn't you tell me yesterday? If you had told me, I would have kept it. How could he have taken it away so easily!"
Tang Tang didn't say it on purpose because she didn't want to give the space to Chen Chen for safekeeping.
"Now, do you know where Ji An went?" Chen Chen asked again.
"I don't know." Seeing Chen Chen's embarrassed expression, Tang Tang quickly added, "He must have escaped. Yesterday, after he controlled my mind, he asked me if we knew he had psychic powers."
"And then what? You told me everything?" Chen Chen was really crazy.
"Yeah." Tang Tang said weakly: "You know, he has controlled me mentally. I can't resist. I am his puppet. I have to answer whatever he asks."
When Chen Chen thought about what he had said to Tang Tang about whether his love for Ji An was natural or due to mental control, he felt that the sky was dark.
Since Ji An can easily control Tang Tang's mind, he can erase Tang Tang's related memories. He can completely steal the necklace and then erase or tamper with Tang Tang's memories. At that time, no one will know that it was done by him.
But Ji An didn't. He didn't erase Tang Tang's memory, allowing Tang Tang to tell him openly that this was Ji An's provocation to him!
If you have the guts, find him and take the necklace back!
This is a break and also a declaration of war!
