Chapter 53: The Horse is Falling
Duan Keqiu pounced on the bright blue display screen, exited the interface in disbelief, and clicked in again.
It repeated this action in vain, each time more desperate than the last. After the fifth time, Duan Keqiu finally gave up deceiving himself.
It held its head with its two short front paws and collapsed silently as it stared at the display.
It's not that this machine has a bug! The person in charge of supervising it is really the judge!
Furthermore, he was personally designated as a "Key Surveillance Target," a person who couldn't even be replaced by a supervisor, one-on-one surveillance!
The Administration's surveillance is very secretive, and Duan Ke is very clear about it.
He once asked Xu Jue if he had noticed Ji Qing's surveillance. Xu Jue's answer was absolutely no. His magic power was already very strong, but he didn't realize that there was a human following him all the time, even for nearly three months, and even followed him to the bar to get food.
Since the Inquisitor was the one monitoring him, his approach should be similar to Ji Qing's. He would follow him closely, assess the risks based on his actions, and then report them to the Administration.
But why? ?
Duan Keqiu was puzzled.
Although it was a monster, it was always very obedient. It rarely even interacted with humans and spent most of its time sticking with Qin Huai.
Could it be that secretly using charms on your boyfriend when you're hungry in the middle of the night, pretending to be a kitten to trick him, or asking him to feed you magic power are all considered major violations by the Inquisitor?
That's impossible. That person is too idle. Why would he stare at other people's love affairs every day?
Duan Keqiu hung in the air with his wings shaking, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
Some of my previous behaviors instantly turned into boomerangs, stabbing me straight in the face.
If this person really had been following me all along and knew everything about my daily interactions with Qin Huai...
Duan Ke was a little afraid to think about it, his heart sank.
When I was watching a movie with my boyfriend, when I was complaining about the Inquisitor being a murderer, when I confessed my identity as a succubus, when I said I could blow up three Inquisitors with one punch...
Is the judge himself present at the scene?
That's scary.
If Duan Ke were given a chance to look back, he swore that he would never talk behind people's backs again, at least not talk behind the backs of petty-minded bad people.
But it's too late, there's no chance to make amends now, the judge has already heard it!
Duan Ke didn't dare stay in the administration any longer, he had to run away immediately.
When he thought about that guy still staring at him in the dark, Duan Ke felt that his life was seriously threatened and he felt short of breath.
The ball didn't stay in front of the screen any longer. It squeezed out of the window, left the administration office, and without stopping, flew towards the apartment building.
-
Duan Ke hurried home, opened the bedroom door and wanted to wake Qin Huai up, but found that Qin Huai was not there at all.
Duan Ke stared at the empty bed for a few seconds, then walked around the huge villa a few times. There was no sign of him in the kitchen or bathroom either, so Duan Ke finally confirmed that Qin Huai had gone out.
Qin Huai had gone out at two or three in the middle of the night once before because he suddenly had to work overtime.
That night, Duan Kegang was fed by him, and she hugged Qin Huai, buried her face in her boyfriend's chest, and fell into a drowsy sleep.
Qin Huai's phone suddenly rang at this time. Although he had turned on the vibration mode and there was no ringtone, it still woke up Duan Ke from his light sleep.
Qin Huai was patting the child's back as he answered the phone. His voice was low, a bit hoarse, half asleep.
Duan Ke could tell that he was going to work overtime and wanted to act coquettishly to keep him. But he was worried that Qin Huai would be reluctant to leave, so he held back and said nothing, silently letting go of Qin Huai's waist.
Qin Huai stuffed Duan Ke's dinosaur pillow into his arms and let it sleep with him. Qin Huai was too petty. This pillow was not allowed to go to bed normally. It could only be hugged by its owner once that night.
Do you have to work overtime again tonight? This work is really busy.
Duan Ke sighed in his heart.
Anyway, Qin Huai would be home around 5 or 6 in the morning, so there was no need to rush him. Duan Piwei felt bad about disturbing him, so he didn't call Qin Huai immediately. He just sent a WeChat message asking him to come home as soon as possible.
After sending the message, Duan Ke opened the address book and called Helekla.
Helekla answered the phone quickly and said hello. It seemed like they were in a bar, and the voices were a bit noisy and distorted.
"Why, did you get the information?" Helekla asked bluntly, "You don't have anything else to talk to me about at this time."
Duan Ke's tone was extremely serious, and his speech speed was faster than usual. "Heller... I'm in trouble. It's a big problem! I need you to do me a favor."
"Oh, you were arrested?"
Helekla spoke casually, not seeming surprised at all. The noisy voice on the phone gradually faded away, and Duan Ke guessed that he had come out of the bar and into the quiet outside.
"Don't be afraid, I'll come get you now. Just think of it as a night out at the Administration."
There was a bang from Helekla's side, as if the car door was closed. "Who's guarding you now? Give him the phone."
"No need... I'm at home now." Duan Ke's voice was a little difficult.
Helekla exclaimed in surprise, "You didn't go get the information? Then why did you come to me in the middle of the night? Is there something else?"
Helekla was not unhappy, he just didn't care when Duan Ke came to find him.
It's just that Duan Ke's sleep schedule is too regular. When he and I shared a dorm together, he would go to bed before midnight and rarely stayed up late. Why would he suddenly come to me at this time?
"I've got it." Duan Ke said weakly, "But I saw something more terrifying than the monster that attacked me..."
Duan Ke spent several minutes explaining the whole story to Helekla. The amount of information was quite overwhelming, and Helekla remained silent for half a minute, clearly as incredulous as Duan Ke.
"So what are you going to do? Are you going to fight him?"
"No, I want to run away."
“…”
Duan Ke dragged the huge suitcase out from under the wardrobe and muttered, "He's been watching me for so long, and I didn't notice anything... This guy must be ridiculously strong. And he killed so many A-levels in a single day, his strength is a bit too abnormal... I'm afraid that even if I drain my boyfriend dry, I still won't be able to defeat him. It's better to run away."
“…”
Helekla silently held her forehead. The succubus's reliance on humans for magical power was truly troublesome. If Duan Ke were to truly fight the Inquisitor, her boyfriend would indeed have to make a huge sacrifice.
"Then you should run. I'll handle City A. Where are you running to?"
"I don't know... Where do you think is better? A safer place."
Helekla thought for a moment and said, "Why not go to my place? The scenery is beautiful and it's far away. The administration there is also under the jurisdiction of the Inquisitor, but the enforcement is much looser than that of City A. It's very safe."
Duan Ke thought it was feasible and nodded twice. Helekla was very quick and sent the flight information within two minutes.
[By the way, remember to ask your boyfriend to reimburse you, his share is not free.]
If it were any other time, Duan Ke might have joked with Helekla, saying that the gold coin portrait was exactly like him. But he was in a very heavy mood and couldn't laugh at all. He could only search the room like a hopping rabbit, searching for something.
I don’t know when I will be able to come back this time, so Duan Ke wants to bring as many things as possible with him.
The dinosaur doll must be taken over... Although Qin Huai doesn't allow dolls to go to bed most of the time, this is the trophy he got from playing the claw machine for the first time, so it is very precious.
He also brought snacks, as he was afraid he would get hungry on the way. After all, the journey was long, and he couldn't eat with his boyfriend anytime, anywhere, so at least one of his stomach and digestive system had to be full.
The more Duan Ke packed, the more he had to stock up. He was so anxious, and the more anxious he was, the more he wanted to stock up. He almost wanted to take the kitchen spices with him, as if he was fleeing from a famine.
When he was packing the third suitcase, the door of the villa opened.
Duan Ke was stuffing the last bag of potato chips into the compartment. He had stuffed the suitcase so full that the zipper had broken. He pressed his knees against the side of the suitcase, using both hands, not even enough time to lift his head.
The room was in chaos, and the person at the door seemed to be frozen when he saw this scene.
He didn't know what he was thinking about, and his breathing was a little heavy. Qin Huai asked Duan Ke, "Baby, where are you going?"
Duan Ke was glad that she had previously explained the Inquisitor and the Administration to her boyfriend, otherwise it would have been a waste of time to talk about this.
Without even turning his head, he continued to pack the things in front of him, his voice urgent.
"Brother, let's run away! That devil is coming to catch us! He's been watching us!"
"Don't ask for details now. We'll explain on the way. Brother, go help me clean up the things in the bathroom." Duan Ke said, "We have to leave quickly. That bad guy will catch up with us at any time and will definitely kill us all..."
Duan Ke was not that scared until he started talking, but the more he talked, the more he became scared. He seemed to have imagined some bloody scene in his mind, and his voice was sobbing at the end, which was very pitiful.
Qinhuai:.
He looked at the mess on the ground, and the dark thoughts in his mind suddenly disappeared, and he even felt like laughing.
I thought Duan Ke was going to break up with me and was ready to pack up and run away from home.
Qin Huai had already planned out some method to lock up Duan Ke and some method to coax him into submission, but the little guy didn't even realize it.
He's trying to dig up this house. Does he want to elope with me?
Qin Huai lowered his eyes, gently rubbing his gloved fingertips. The scene of the two of them escaping five years ago flashed through his mind, and Qin Huai suddenly felt that concealing his identity was not a bad idea.
Pretending to be an ordinary person, escaping to a place where no one knows him with Duan Ke, to make up for the regrets of five years ago... It's quite touching.
Although he was moved, Qin Huai would definitely not choose to continue hiding it.
First, I can’t hide it, and second, if I keep hiding it any longer... the child will probably get really angry, and then he’ll run away and there’ll be no way to coax him back.
It would be better for you to confess your guilt as soon as possible and get leniency.
Qin Huai sighed sincerely at the thought of being ignored by Duan Ke. He walked forward slowly and squatted down beside Duan Ke.
Duan Ke was so focused on sorting the snacks that he didn't have time to look at Qin Huai. He put his hand in front of Qin Huai and commanded his boyfriend skillfully.
"Brother, give me those chestnut kernels over there. I need some for the journey."
Qin Huai handed it to him obediently.
"Brother, give me that strawberry candy... Wait, what is this... contraceptive T?? Where did we get this thing at home, brother?"
Qin Huai said honestly: "I bought it yesterday and wanted to try it with you, but I didn't have time."
"Why should we wear this? It's such a waste of food. No, no, no. Brother, give that to me... Brother, what are you doing?"
A cold touch on his wrist made Duan Ke shudder, as if something was wrapped around his wrist bone. Duan Ke turned around, confused, and heard a click.
The sound of handcuffs opening and closing.
Duan Ke looked at the silver handcuffs on his wrists and was speechless.
"Don't think about that right now! Didn't we just play with handcuffs two days ago? If you want to play with them, I'll play with you again when we get to Europe. We really don't have time right now... huh?"
Duan Ke finally realized that something was wrong.
Faced with this sudden situation, Qin Huai didn't even ask a single question. Was his boyfriend a little too calm?
Moreover, the pair of gloves on Qin Huai's hands——
Duan Ke shuddered unconsciously.
He couldn't believe it and slowly turned his head. When his eyes met Qin Huai's, he froze completely.
——Qin Huai was wearing a familiar outfit.
The hat, uniform, epaulettes, and military boots were all there, all exquisitely and neatly done, making the already tall man look even more fierce and handsome, making Duan Ke unable to take his eyes off him.
If it were any other time, Duan Ke would probably be eager to try something exciting with Qin Huai.
After all, this uniform really suits him, showing off his perfect figure to the extreme, deadly and dangerous.
But, but…
There was no surprise in Duan Ke's beautiful pupils, but fear, and her rosy lips turned pale.
The seal of the administration gleamed brightly in the center of the well-shaped black military cap on Qin Huai's head, flashing quietly and silently under the cold white light of the bedroom.
Duan Ke and Qin Huai were silent. The two of them were in a stalemate, and the air in the bedroom seemed to become stagnant.
Qin Huai smiled quietly, looking at Duan Ke. His smile was ambiguous, and his eyes, as black as ink, were filled with a hint of playfulness. He placed his big hand on Duan Ke's lower back.
"You..." Duan Ke could barely hold back the words, his hands trembling as he pointed at Qin Huai, "You are..."
Qin Huai smiled, lowered his head, and kissed Duan Ke as if begging for mercy. He gently licked the little guy's cold, soft lips, trying to comfort him.
"Don't worry, baby, he won't kill you." Qin Huai said softly.
This is a disguised admission, leaving no room for mediation.
Duan Ke was completely dumbfounded. The excessive amount of information turned him into a little robot without a clockwork.
After a few seconds, he finally came back to his senses from the chaos, angrily shook off Qin Huai's hand and tried to escape.
"Go away—"
But it was too late. Qin Huai used handcuffs for exactly this purpose, to prevent people from escaping.
The other handcuff was cuffed on Qin Huai's wrist, connecting the two of them together. Qin Huai gently pulled Duan Ke into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her, a heavy and deep kiss.
