Chapter 252: Terrible tacit understanding
As soon as Jiang Ran finished speaking, Si Nian slashed the woman's body with the second knife without hesitation.
"S?!" Jiang Suxin's delicate face was completely distorted. She suppressed her inner despair and said word by word, "Just kill me."
She raised her eyes to look at her, her gaze firm, more relieved and resolute than before.
"Kill me," she whispered, "and I'll pay you back what I owe you."
Si Nian ignored Jiang Suxin's request, staring at Jiang Ran with a sharp gaze: "Aren't you coming out yet?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the wind blade slashed at Jiang Suxin's leg.
"Ugh!" The woman finally couldn't help but let out a short cry of pain, but she swallowed it back.
She didn't expect Jiang Ran to come forward to save her.
Just like Jiang Ran said, she was S's person and helped S to plot against her. She had no obligation and no reason to sacrifice her life for the enemy.
The woman leaned against the wall and took a breath, her bright eyes gradually dimming.
It's really ridiculous.
Her life was saved by S, but after so many years, it was taken away by her again - this is probably the so-called cycle of cause and effect.
It can be seen that if this person is destined not to live long, no matter how he struggles and resists, he will eventually return to his original path.
hehe.
Jiang Ran leaned against the pillar and pressed the button on the side of the watch. After a slight "swish" sound, the transparent silk thread was retracted into the watch.
Outside, the crazy-looking woman stabbed the hostage for the fourth time, but he showed no reaction.
Jiang Ran flexed her wrists and cursed, "Fuck you, woman, you're not only delusional, you're also a psychopath—you can be so cruel to your own people. No wonder my dad looks down on you."
Si Nian's tone was very cold: "Aren't you coming out yet?"
"Come out, come out!" Jiang Ran walked out from behind the pillar, glanced at Jiang Suxin lying on the ground, and said with a sigh, "How pitiful! She's almost been sliced into sashimi."
She came out obediently, and the wind blades from Si Nian's fingertips dissipated - she had never intended to kill Jiang Suxin.
"If you had come out earlier, she wouldn't have been like this."
"Wow, you mean this is my fault?" Jiang Ran curled her lips. "You're a crazy woman indeed—Qin Huai is hanging out with someone like you, so it's obvious he's not a good person either."
"Haha, isn't it your father's fault that Qin Huai has become what he is now?"
"Oh." Jiang Ran smiled. "You didn't deny it. It seems that Qin Huai is really hanging out with you?"
She looked coldly at him, "In Yancheng, the arena where Si Xu was imprisoned could block supernatural powers. Was it you who provided Qin Huai with the equipment for the arena?"
Si Nian smiled proudly: "It's me."
"OK."
Jiang Ran clasped his hands together, making a crisp sound. When he raised his hands, the light of the setting sun fell on his fingertips and condensed at one point along the transparent silk thread.
She felt that she was very calm now, with only one thought in her mind - to teach the person opposite her a lesson and wake her up from her pathetic and arrogant fantasy.
She thought so and did so.
…
When Jiang Suxin woke up from her brief coma, she heard a woman's screams and curses.
She raised her eyes with difficulty and saw Jiang Ran pressing Si Nian to the ground, waving his fist at her face.
"I told you to plot against Si Xu! I told you to slander my father! I told you to blow up the Xiling Laboratory!"
The girl's curse was full of energy, and the sound of her punches hitting flesh made Jiang Suxin's heart palpitate.
"You can dissolve my superpowers?!" The woman hurriedly dodged the rain of punches, her voice intermittent, mixed with groans from being hit by the punches, "What did Jiang Yize do to you?!"
"Didn't you say that my father and you are still in contact? How come you seem to know nothing?" Jiang Ran seized the opportunity to laugh at her, "You are so pitiful, Si Nian. Apart from your fantasies, there is actually no one in this world who truly loves you - you are so pitiful!"
"Nonsense!" As if defeated by her last words, the woman screamed, "Jiang Yize loves me! He only loves me!"
"He loves you, uncle!"
Just kidding, Jiang Ran has never lost when it comes to cursing - if there wasn't a wounded person nearby today, she wouldn't even have to do anything and could have just used her fancy greetings to make her question her life.
…
The noise from the lighthouse finally alarmed the psychic downstairs.
The patrolmen split into two groups. One group went to report the abnormality to Huo Sichan, while the other group went upstairs directly with weapons.
After carefully arranging a defensive formation, the psychic used a wind blade to knock open the door, and saw Miss Jiang sitting astride the waist of a strange woman and moving her wrists. As for the woman she was pressing down, she was breathing out more than breathing in.
After beating the man, Jiang Ran was in a good mood. He clapped his hands and stood up, pointing at Si Nian on the ground: "This woman is Huo Xuan's confidant. Remember to drag her out and hand her over to Huo Sichan for processing."
He pointed at Jiang Suxin by the wall and said, "This woman is the lover of the eldest young master of the Luo family. Please send her to the hospital and remember to notify Luo Yuting to go to the hospital to see her."
She rubbed her aching wrist: "I'm going out. Huo Lingyin is still waiting for me for a meeting."
The superpowers who broke in and were ready to show off their abilities: "..."
…
Jiang Suxin was sent to the hospital. Within two minutes of receiving the news, Luo Yuting also hurried over.
Si Xu followed behind him, in stark contrast to his haste. He walked very leisurely, yet was able to keep a distance so as not to be left behind by Luo Yuting.
When passing by the room where Huo Xuan was imprisoned, the man casually glanced inside.
He stopped.
The psychic guarding the door recognized him and had already stood up to greet him.
Seeing his face darken slightly, the psychic's heart skipped a beat. He then glanced into the ward and his expression changed drastically: "How could this happen?! Where's the person?"
The ward was empty and Huo Xuan was nowhere to be found.
"Has anyone entered the ward today?"
Knowing he had made a grave mistake, the psychic lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice, "Apart from the doctor who was treating me, there was no one else."
Si Xu raised his chin: "Open the door, I'll go in and take a look."
The psychic quickly opened the door.
The man walked into the ward, walked around the room, checked the window, and went to the bathroom.
There was a vent on the top of the bathroom, with an exhaust fan installed. At this moment, the exhaust fan was thrown aside, leaving only a dark hole that was wide enough for one person to pass through.
"Ah, Huo Xuan escaped from here?" The psychic stamped his foot, blaming himself, "It's all my fault! I'll report the situation to the captain and arrange for people to chase him - he's so badly injured, he definitely can't get far..."
"You also said that he was so badly injured." Si Xu shook his head, "I can't catch up."
"Huh? Why...why?" It was precisely because he was seriously injured that we had to chase him. How could a group of people with special abilities not be able to catch up with a wounded person?
Si Xu looked up at the vent in silence.
Huo Xuan's injuries were enough to leave him bedridden for three months, yet he had quietly escaped through this vent...
There were no bloodstains or scratches around the vents, indicating that his body had almost recovered when he left.
Today...what did the doctor who came to see him do to him that made his injuries heal in such a short time?
Who could that person be? One of his close associates, or the person behind him?
Si Xu frowned and thought, when suddenly a crackling sound came from the vent.
"Wow!"
After a scream, the entire partition collapsed, and a slender shadow fell from it and was caught in the man's arms.
“Cough cough cough!”
The dust cleared, and the girl saw who had caught her. She was surprised: "Si Xu, we are destined to be together."
Si Xu: “…”
Jiang Ran: “…”
Under the girl's innocent gaze, Si Xu raised his lips and chuckled, acting harmlessly: "Jiang Ran, shouldn't you explain why you fell from the sky?"
