Chapter 232, Hidden Master
Good show? Luo Yuting glanced at Si Xu.
The raindrops were as big as soybeans, and it hurt when they hit my face.
Luo Yuting wiped the rain off his face and moved his gaze from Si Xu's face to the umbrella he was holding.
It started to rain after they went out, so this guy casually took out an umbrella from the space, and then... held it up by himself, as if he didn't notice that the people he was traveling with were being warmly welcomed by the heavy rain.
Finally, his resentful gaze made Si Xu's conscience awaken, and he suddenly realized: "Oh, you didn't bring an umbrella."
He took out an umbrella and handed it to him: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I thought you loved running in the rain."
The tone was just like that of the woman who was traveling with him, foxy, cunning, and asking for a beating.
Luo Yuting took the umbrella, thanked him expressionlessly, opened the umbrella, and intentionally or unintentionally pushed Si Xu's umbrella to the side.
Si Xu moved away in a good-tempered manner, not forgetting to comment: "Childish."
Luo Yuting: "Heh."
The two fell silent again, squatting behind the banana tree and watching the show quietly.
…
In front of the small attic, Huo Siguo's patience ran out. He pointed at Huo Lingge and said to the psychic beside him: "Leave this woman to me, you can do whatever you want with the others."
Those who came with him were his trusted aides, who smiled knowingly and said "OK" when they heard what he said.
"Lingge, you go in first, we'll take care of this..." Worried that Huo Lingge would get hurt, Huo Heng spoke in an urgent tone and called someone to take her into the house.
The man looked at Huo Siguo - the other party had a smug expression as if the outcome was a foregone conclusion, and his mouth was almost stretched to his temples. Haha, it seemed that he was very confident about tonight's action.
Is he absolutely confident in his own abilities? Or does he have other tricks up his sleeve?
No matter what Huo Siguo planned, as long as he held on for a while longer, the captain would go to the Huo family villa and find that something was wrong, and he would definitely rush over immediately.
Just hold on a moment longer.
The rain was blown by the wind into the corridor, wetting my clothes and hair.
Huo Lingge didn't listen to Huo Heng and went back to her room obediently.
She stood in the porch, and in the dim light, one could see a thin layer of white frost on the backs of her hands and arms, wherever they were wet by the rain.
She could hardly see anything at night, but fortunately the voices of those people were so loud that she could easily tell where they were.
The girl raised her hand, her fingertips falling in the rain, as if sensing the density of the rain - the raindrops blowing around her condensed from transparent water into sharp ice.
"What is this!" Huo Siguo was the first to notice something unusual around the girl. The moment the man realized something was wrong, he pulled away.
However, for those with water-based abilities, once their abilities are activated, any place with blood and water will become their best battlefield.
As a water-based mutant, Si Xu is very clear about this.
He sighed and made the final decision: "Huo Siguo is dead."
As soon as he finished speaking, the pouring rain seemed to have been paused. The water froze into ice, and the ice exploded. Before the psychics could react, the overwhelming ice blades sliced through their skin and severed their veins...
Screams rang out one after another.
With Huo Siguo and his group as the center, sharp icicles suddenly spread out.
The attack was approaching, and Si Xu slowly put down the umbrella he was holding. The moment the icicles approached, he waved the umbrella to block it.
The icicles hit the umbrella, splashed, turned into water and fell on the bluestone slabs.
The wind is howling, the rain is still falling, and everything has returned to normal.
Only the psychics in the rain were no longer as arrogant as before. They curled up on the ground and groaned faintly.
Huo Siguo was still standing, the expression on his face frozen at the last second, one of unconcealable horror.
Huo Heng finally recovered from his sudden change. He looked at the two people who emerged from behind the banana tree and blurted out, "Professor Si, was it you who did it just now?"
Among so many people present, he couldn't think of anyone else except Si Xu who could condense rain into ice in an instant and control the strength and range just right.
Si Xu retracted the umbrella, looked at the white frost that had not melted on the umbrella surface, and curled the corners of his mouth.
He didn't respond immediately, but Huo Lingge took the initiative and said respectfully, "Thank you Professor Si for your help. Lingge is very grateful."
Oh, that woman gave the credit to Si Xu? Luo Yuting, also aware of the uniqueness of her ability, said nothing more, his gaze fixed on the stiff Huo Siguo.
Dead.
She did not show any mercy to other people with special abilities, but only took this man's life. It was amazing that she could control it with such precision.
Si Xu glanced at Huo Lingge, neither refuting her nor admitting that the instantaneous attack was his.
Huo Heng and the others just thought that he agreed - they had been traveling together for a long time and had long been accustomed to his coldness.
…
When Huo Lingyin arrived, the battle in front of the small attic had ended, and Huo Heng ordered people to clean up the scene.
The injured were taken to the hospital by the first team, and the dead... Huo Siguo was thrown aside, covered with the uniform of the Special Ability Team - the second young master of the Huo family, who was once so arrogant, now has no one to collect his body.
There was even more irony in Huo Lingyin's eyes.
Huo Siguo was here, but where was Huo Xuan? He had let his son attack the Huo family compound, but he hid away like a turtle?
In the hall, Huo Lingge was serving tea to the guests, and Si Xu was sitting on the sofa, looking drowsy and bored.
Luo Yuting also closed his eyes slightly, as if waiting for something.
As soon as she appeared, everyone present turned to look at her.
"Professor Si, and you..." She couldn't remember Luo Yuting's name for a moment, "Why are you here?"
"Sister, you're here!" Huo Lingge poured a cup of hot tea and pushed it to her. "It's very cold, drink some tea."
Huo Lingyin, who rarely showed any discomfort, thanked him and asked Si Xu, "Did you solve Huo Siguo's problem?"
Si Xu replied with two words: "Guess."
Huo Lingyin: "..." I guess your uncle!
The woman wanted to throw the teacup in her hand at his face.
Huo Heng stepped in to help out at the right moment: "It's Professor Si—if it weren't for him, we might not have made it this far."
After she finished speaking, she noticed that the man opposite Si Xu looked at him with sympathy.
Huo Heng: "..." What does that look mean? He's just an ordinary, unarmed person, and you have the nerve to look at him like that? Does he really think he has a good temper and won't get angry? If it weren't for the fact that he came here with Professor Si, he would definitely beat him up!
After getting the answer, Huo Lingyin waved her hand proudly: "Si Xu, thank you for this time - next time you have any trouble, just come to me!"
Si Xu put down his teacup and thought: "I can't solve this problem myself, so I don't think it's useful to ask you for help."
Huo Lingyin: "..." Can we still have a pleasant chat together?!
In the awkward silence, someone else came in from outside.
"The people who attacked the laboratory were from Team 4. They were all arrested."
Pei Xiao took off his raincoat and brushed off the water droplets on his body. He didn't care who was in the living room or whether anyone was listening to him. He explained the situation to himself: "Mr. Tu Su is not injured. I have arranged for someone to take him back."
Huo Heng was surprised: "Huo Xuan also arranged for people to attack the research institute?"
