Chapter 187, Hypnotist
The master did not return home late at night, and the servants all went to rest. The villa was very quiet, and occasionally the footsteps of the night watchman could be heard from the street outside.
Si Xu said that the person he was looking for was a hypnotist and a guest of the Shen family. If Shen Lang did not go back, that person would not leave the Shen family. Therefore, as long as he kept an eye on the Shen family, he would soon be able to find any clues about that person.
Hypnotist?
He knew that some people with powerful psychic abilities could control other people's thoughts and actions. So-called hypnotists should be similar to psychics, right?
Even someone as powerful as Jiang Ran was tricked by the Shen family, which shows how extraordinary the hypnotist is.
I'll find him later. Without further ado, I'll knock him out first.
Thinking of this, Qiao Yi groped forward in the darkness.
"Get lost! What the hell is this? How dare you send it into my room?"
Suddenly, angry shouts were heard from the second floor, mixed with the sound of things falling to the ground and breaking.
Is someone arguing?
The owner of the Shen family has not returned yet. I think the only one who dares to lose his temper in the Shen family at this time is that guest.
Qiao Yi followed the sound and tiptoed up to the second floor.
In the dark corridor, only one door was open, letting out warm yellow candlelight.
The man's roar continued, clearly coming from the door.
"Get out of here! Don't come in and disturb me! Otherwise I'll have Shen Lang throw all of you out of the base to feed the zombies! Get out!"
"Yes! Yes, yes..."
Two servants dragged an unconscious woman out of the room, bowing at the door.
"We'll throw her out right now. Don't get angry. Go to bed early."
The people in the room responded with one word: "Get out!"
Two servants dragged the woman away.
Qiao Yi dodged into the shadows and held his breath.
The servant came downstairs.
The woman's head was smashed by something, leaving blood stains all over the place.
Qiao Yi avoided the bloodstains and walked to the door of the room.
Knocked gently on the door.
"Who is it?!" he responded angrily.
"Sir." Qiao Yi pinched his throat, "The floor of your room is dirty. Let me clean it."
"Wait a moment!"
The sound of a chair scraping against the floor was heard in the room, and the man came over and opened the door, cursing.
"Those idiots from the Shen family dared to put a prostitute in my room and treat me like a beggar? Bastards!"
When he opened the door and saw Qiao Yi, he was stunned: "Who are you?"
"Are you the hypnotist that Shen Shuai mentioned?" Without giving the man a chance to respond, Qiao Yi put on an admiring expression and asked eagerly, "Is it you?"
The man blurted out, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
After asking, I realized something was wrong.
It's a pity it's too late.
After getting the answer, Qiao Yi knocked the man unconscious with a single blow, carried him on his shoulders, and walked out of the villa humming a tune.
"I've found the person. Let's meet at the agreed place."
A curse came from the headset: "Qiao Yi, you bastard, can you not be so impulsive next time?! Do you know that if something happens to you, we won't even be able to support you in time! You..."
"I know, I know!" Qiao Yi took off his headset, avoided the patrolling superpower team, and quietly ran towards Si Xu's apartment.
…
Hearing the knock on the door, Si Xu put the sleeping girl in his arms on the bed, put on his coat, and went out to open the door.
"Professor Si." Seeing the man, Qiao Yi greeted him politely and threw the large object he was carrying onto the living room floor. "That's the guy."
Si Xu buttoned his coat slowly and looked at the unconscious man lying on the ground.
The man looked to be in his early fifties, with no signs of supernatural powers. Even in the apocalypse, he still maintained a bloated figure, which showed that he was living a good life.
"Well, thank you for your hard work." Si Xu thanked him politely.
Qiao Yi waved his hands hurriedly: "No, no! I also want to thank Professor Si for the medicine he sent us. Thanks to you, the epidemic in the slums has been brought under control."
"That's good."
Si Xu simply asked about how the man was found, and Qiao Yi naturally told him everything he knew.
"Are you still at the Shen family..." It seems that Shen Lang implemented the plan in a hurry this time. I guess it was a temporary plan?
Chen Lang is not a person who seeks quick success and instant benefits. Why is he so eager to frame Jiang Ran this time?
Could it be that something unexpected happened in the past two days?
The man lay on the ground like a dead pig, motionless.
Si Xu glanced at him with disdain and asked Qiao Yi to get some unfiltered water from the kitchen and pour it over the man's head.
"Poof! Cough cough cough cough!" Like a rooster with its tail burned, the man sat up in shock, howling, "Who is it?! I'm going to die!"
Before he could sit up, Si Xu raised his foot and kicked him in the chest, kicking him out again.
"Ouch!" The man rolled on the ground and didn't get up for a long time.
"Are you awake?" Si Xu's eyes were cold and murderous. "If you're not awake, I don't mind helping you again."
Finally realizing he was in danger, the man waved his hands and moved back: "No, no, sir, I have no grudge against you, what are you doing?"
"No grudges or hatred?" Si Xu pulled a chair and sat in front of him, saying leisurely, "Do you know who I am?"
Only after he asked this did the man dare to look up at him.
It would have been fine if I hadn't looked at it, but after I did, I almost fainted from fright.
"Professor Sisisisi?!"
As if he saw some evil Shura ghost, his pupils trembled, his face turned pale, and his whole body shook like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind.
Is it really that scary? Seeing the man's appearance, Qiao Yi complained in his heart: With such a little courage, he still dares to follow Shen Lang to plot against Si Xu?
"Do you know me?" Si Xu chuckled. "Have you heard of my torture methods?"
The man fell to the ground, shaking non-stop: "I've heard, I've heard..."
"Do you want to die?"
"No!" He was so scared that he couldn't speak clearly. "Professor Si, it wasn't my intention to frame Miss Jiang! It was that old bastard Shen Lang who forced me to do it! Look, I'm just an ordinary person. Even if I had a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to plot against your woman!"
Qiao Yi smacked his lips. "What the hell? He's admitting it right away? Where did Shen Lang find this guy? He's so spineless... disgusting."
Si Xu showed no surprise: "Did Chen Lang tell you to do this? Why would Chen Lang do this?"
"This..." The man who always knew everything suddenly hesitated.
"You won't tell me? If you don't tell me, I can only -"
Si Xu paused as the vase on the table in the living room exploded with a bang, sending fragments flying everywhere and scaring the man to scream.
"I tell you! I tell you!"
I've heard that Professor Si likes to twist people. If Shen Lang hadn't forced him, he would never have hypnotized Jiang Ranran again...
"Because Shen Lang got the news, saying, saying..." The man lowered his voice, as if he was having trouble speaking, "Young Master Shen likes Miss Jiang..."
He had been following the Shen family before the end of the world. Shen Lang regarded him as his confidant, and he had a lot of contact with laboratory affairs.
Shen Lang didn't tell him the reason for this action, but he accidentally heard it when he passed by the study door.
"I heard Shen Lang and Zheng Li talking. They said that if Young Master Shen continues like this, it will ruin their plan. So, we have to get rid of Miss Jiang first. Maybe we can kill two birds with one stone and drive you out of Xiling Base as well..."
His clothes were soaked with cold sweat, and the man fell to the ground shivering after he finished speaking.
Si Xu didn't reply.
After hearing the shocking secret, Qiao Yi opened her mouth slightly and carefully observed the man's expression.
He seemed to have no expression... Wouldn't Professor Si be angry when he heard something like this?
"Hmph..." Si Xu snorted in disdain as the two of them trembled in fear. "He does have some taste, but it's a pity that Jiang Ran will never like him."
