Chapter 68, Nullification of Superpowers
He whispered in her ear, his voice weak, like the aggrieved whimper of a wounded little animal. Jiang Ran's heart felt like it was soaked in lemonade, sour, swollen and bubbling.
Her tone became more nasal, and she hummed softly, rubbing her cheek against his shoulder.
"Si Xu." She whispered softly, "I'm sorry."
She thought that she was really an excessive person, not considering the consequences or his feelings - she relied on his favoritism and acted willfully, which was really terrible.
His slightly cool hand moved up along the line of her back, his fingertips entwined with her black hair, and he covered the back of her head and patted it gently.
A silent response.
Jiang Ran became more and more soft-hearted: "Next time if I do this again, you can beat me up. I'll learn my lesson after a beating."
This girl is very soft-hearted towards others, but can be very cruel to herself.
Si Xu curled his lips silently but still didn't answer.
Jiang Ran's voice dropped another two notches, with a hint of softness and coquettishness: "Si Xu, I'm serious, I..."
He found it funny that the little girl was seriously reflecting on her mistakes, but laughing out loud now would definitely make her angry, so he lowered his head and touched his lips to her forehead.
Jiang Ran's words of self-reflection came to an abrupt end.
She stepped back from Si Xu's embrace and looked at him: "You..."
Si Xu looked confused: "Huh?"
"Are you smirking?" Jiang Ran narrowed her eyes. "Si Xu, I'm seriously reflecting on my mistakes..."
"I know." Hearing the warning in her voice, Si Xu coughed twice, "I heard you. You asked me to beat you up."
What she said was correct, but why did it sound so strange? Jiang Ran thought for a moment and corrected him: "It means that if I make a mistake, you can beat me."
"Won't."
Without waiting for Jiang Ran's response, he added: "Next time I'll just use a knife."
Because she can ignore supernatural attacks, so he just uses a knife? Jiang Ran shrank his neck: "Si Xu, are you trying to scare me...?"
This timid look is so cute.
Si Xu laughed: "Well, to scare you - if I don't scare you, you will make the same mistake."
He touched the girl's furry head and said softly but seriously, "Jiang Ran, it's not wise to joke about your own life."
The little girl nodded obediently.
After saying a lot of words, his heartbeat returned to normal. Si Xu continued the previous topic calmly: "Jiang Ran, besides me, who else knows that you can negate supernatural attacks?"
"It's... the guy who attacked me tonight." Jiang Ran said, "That man was a fourth-level gold-type mutant. Because I broke down his superpowers, he got startled and got beaten up badly by me."
She raised her face slightly, showing a smug little expression, waiting for praise.
But this time, Si Xu didn't praise him. He lowered his eyelids, his eyes deep, as if thinking about something: "Fourth-level gold-type superpower... I know who it is."
"Hmm?" Jiang Ran didn't think deeply about the man's words. "Next time we meet, you can beat him up—he even scolded me, and the scolding was really nasty!"
The girl had someone to rely on, so she immediately complained to the man.
"I understand." Without saying how he would deal with that guy, Si Xu changed the subject, "Get some rest early. I'll take you around the base tomorrow."
He didn't seem to be curious about her abilities at all... Jiang Ran, who was originally very excited, was discouraged by his cold attitude and climbed onto the bed with her head drooped.
As soon as I closed my eyes, I was embraced in a warm embrace with a light smell of tobacco.
"Jiang Ran." He placed a kiss on her cheek, his voice hoarse, "You just scared me."
Feeling very aggrieved, he accused her of her impulsive behavior just now.
I've already apologized, so why are you still feeling wronged? Jiang Ran closed his eyes and hummed, then chuckled: "Well, Si Xu, I sincerely apologize to you..."
His lips stopped at the corner of her mouth and touched it: "Not enough."
Jiang Ran was so sleepy that he was confused: "What will be enough?"
Si Xu pulled her into his arms and kissed her: "You have to compensate me."
Outside the window, on the leafless tree trunk, a pair of unknown birds flapped their wings and flew away, disturbing the snow on the ground.
…
After being tormented by the man until the second half of the night, Jiang Ran had only one thought before falling asleep: when she woke up, she must make three rules with him.
This guy Si Xu really is too much.
…
After making sure the girl was asleep, Si Xu carefully put her into the quilt and got up to get dressed.
He did not sense any fluctuations of superpowers from Jiang Ran, which meant that Jiang Ran's ability to invalidate superpower attacks was not a superpower.
Jiang Ran has not awakened any special abilities.
So what happened to her body?
Si Xu could only think of one possibility.
Jiang Yize.
The man knew that the disaster would happen, so before the disaster happened, he did something to his daughter.
Jiang Ran did not awaken any superpowers, but like those with superpowers, her body underwent some kind of mutation after coming into contact with the virus floating in the air.
For the little girl, this is both good news and bad news.
She finally had the capital to protect herself, but unfortunately, in his opinion, her abilities were too useless.
Invalidate supernatural power attacks - if it were him, he would be confident that he could defeat the enemy after invalidating the enemy's supernatural power, but Jiang Ran couldn't.
The girl was too fragile. If she met someone like him, even without her super powers, she would still not be his opponent.
She was able to defeat the fourth-level gold-type mutant because the man was caught off guard and was caught off guard.
Moreover, the ability to nullify supernatural attacks - just like the healing Lin You, this absolutely rare ability will bring a lot of trouble to the little girl.
A man is innocent unless he is in possession of a treasure.
In this case, he could only eliminate all those who knew this secret.
…
Shen Yang came out of the room, and the people standing beside him lowered their heads and bowed respectfully.
“真是没用啊。”沉扬脱了染血的黑色手套扔在门边的垃圾桶里，冷笑，“四阶金系异能者，被一个手无寸铁的小姑娘揍得鼻青脸肿不省人事，呵。”
As Shen Yang's most valued right-hand man, Zhong Qian knew the captain's thoughts and said, "Miss Ranran is fine, that's a good thing."
Shen Yang glanced at his assistant who had his eyes downcast, and said thoughtfully: "Do you also think it's a good thing?"
This also shows that the captain really doesn't want that person to touch Miss Ranran.
Zhong Qian nodded: "Miss Ranran is a smart person. Hu Bing is no match for her."
"It's not Ranran." Shen Yang rubbed his brow and sighed, "Grandpa is old and can't even tell who the enemy is. If Hu Bing succeeds today, I'm afraid that our Shen family will be wiped out next."
Zhong Qian frowned: "You mean..." Professor Si is really interested in Miss Ranran?
"I've seen Si Xu's attitude towards women." Shen Yang sighed and shook his head. "Pei Wan'er is so beautiful, but he didn't even give her a glance. If he didn't care, he wouldn't have come to his house to pick her up."
“…” Although his impression of Jiang Ranran was nothing more than her beauty, Zhong Qian knew that in the captain’s heart, that sister might be more important than his real sister, Chen Yao.
As to whether this importance is the friendship between family members or the hunter's interest after seeing the prey he likes, there is no way to know.
Shen Yang yawned and said lazily: "Arrange someone to keep a close eye on this place, and notify me as soon as Hu Bin wakes up."
"yes."
Although Hu Bin is not very smart, he is a fourth-level mutant after all, and a metal-type with strong offensive power. No matter how careless he is, he should not be beaten unconscious by an unarmed ordinary person.
Is there something else they don’t know?
Shen Yang lit a cigarette and walked downstairs lazily.
I read a lot of cute comments asking why Qi Ge called Jiang Ran from the beginning instead of the original owner's name Jiang Ranran.
That's because when Ranran first introduced herself, her name was Jiang Ran.
So Qi Ge and Gu Yunqing all call her Jiang Ran or Ran Ran Mei. People who knew her before called her Jiang Ran Ran. It’s not that the author mixed up the words, but maybe there are some places where they were mixed up. ()
