Chapter 545 The Movie King
Everything was ready. Ji Changqing deliberately chose a building deep in the underground pipeline that was connected to the mutant insect nest as the "battlefield" so that there would be no mistakes.
Of course, the real swarm of insects had been taken into his space several months ago.
"Pretending to be unconscious now?" He Rui asked in a low voice, "Has no one discovered us yet?"
"It's almost there," Ji Changqing looked into the area, "someone is already searching this area with their mental power."
He Rui immediately aimed at his brother, closed his eyes, and fell limply. Ji Changqing quickly caught him, a wicked smile on his face.
His hand "inadvertently" rested on He Rui's buttocks and pinched it viciously.
He Rui: “…”
He has no way to express his pain now and can only let the other party take advantage of him.
Ji Changqing adjusted his posture to make He Rui's "unconsciousness" more natural. He looked down at the tightly closed eyes and slightly trembling eyelashes of the person in his arms, and couldn't help but steal a kiss on those soft lips.
He Rui suddenly opened his eyes and asked in a low voice, "No, why are you kissing me?"
"Hush," Ji Changqing lowered his voice, "Someone with spiritual power will be here soon."
He Rui quickly closed his eyes again and controlled his breathing rate to slow it down deliberately.
...
Nearly another twenty minutes passed.
Disorderly footsteps were heard in the distance, approaching from far away and echoing in the empty corridor.
Ji Changqing hugged He Rui and quickly hid in the shadow of the corner.
He Rui, who was pretending to be unconscious, felt that time was passing abnormally slowly. Lying still was more painful than he had imagined, and every second seemed to be stretched infinitely.
He could neither open his eyes nor use his mental power.
I could only use my exceptionally clear hearing to listen to Brother Ji's heartbeat beside my ear.
He Rui slightly moved his face towards the other person's arms.
Within minutes, a group appeared at the end of the corridor. Shelter leaders, military personnel, medical staff carrying stretchers, and healing users—a dense mass of people, following the leading psychic at the front like a race, ran straight towards their room.
This time, there was probably no one with the ability to teleport to help them, so they could only use the most primitive method of transfer.
Ji Changqing looked coldly at the group of people who squeezed into the room and hugged He Rui tighter.
He stepped back slightly, letting He Rui's cheek rest against the crook of his neck, and used his entire body to protect the person in his arms. This protective gesture startled everyone who came in.
The heroic savior who once created miracles is now like a frightened bird, wary of everyone.
Those who had actually benefited from his past actions could not help but feel sad.
The phrase "hero's end" suddenly came to everyone's mind.
The savior who has lost his power is now in such a miserable state. I wonder what kind of hardships he has experienced.
Even the most indifferent and heartless people who had no gratitude towards Ji Changqing could not help but remain silent and sigh.
They all knew that the person in front of them always had good intentions towards humans.
The situation this savior is currently facing should obviously not happen.
The leader of the shelter quickly stepped forward to appease him: "Mr. Ji, we are here to help you."
Ji Changqing held He Rui and retreated to the window, looking at these people with cold and vigilant eyes. Seeing this, everyone was shocked and tried to persuade them: "Don't be impulsive!"
Just as they were at a stalemate, thick vines silently descended from above, weaving a dense net outside the window, encircling the two of them. Ji Changqing "struggled hard" but "could not break free," with anger flashing in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, we have to do this," the leader explained, "but please believe that we mean no harm."
Ji Changqing remained silent, only scanning everyone who tried to approach with his cold eyes. When the medical staff wanted to lift He Rui onto a stretcher, he suddenly jumped up and said, "Give it back to me!"
The vines that bound him loosened slightly, and Ji Changqing immediately pounced forward and hugged him tightly in his arms again, not letting anyone get close like a beast guarding its food.
"He seems to have...something wrong with his brain." Someone whispered.
"I don't know what they went through..." another person frowned.
"Shut up!" the leader shouted at those whispering.
