Chapter 283 It All Depends on Preference



"When I said 'the walls have ears,' I meant Lin Xun's people," Xu Wu said calmly.

She stood in the white light, clearly a beautiful person, but at this moment her expression was dull, like a beautiful jade that had lost its luster.

Qiao He said in a low voice, "Who exactly is Lin Xun? Is he the person I'm looking for?"

Xu Wu shook her head: "Let me tell you the truth, Qiao He, I don't actually know if Lin Xun is the person you're talking about."

"Because he is so mysterious, I have only met him a few times. He is indeed a very capable person, but he has no emotions. He is like a machine or an antisocial personality."

"I can't see any human qualities in him."

"The person you're talking about is also Lin Xun. Does he have any special marks on him, like a birthmark or something?" Xu Wu asked softly.

Qiao He shook her head: "I don't know, because I've never seen him before."

"I don't know anything about what he looks like, what his personality is, or his background. All I know is that his name is Lin Xun, and this name is very likely to be the same as someone else's, or it could be an alias."

"I only knew that he was a PhD, very impressive, a highly educated person, and he led a research team. However, most of them were probably crazy because they conducted live experiments on humans."

"This experiment was not conducted after the apocalypse, but before the apocalypse."

“You can hardly imagine what we saw in his underground research institute before, Xu Wu. I know you are not a bad person, so I want to tell you everything.”

“If you wanted to kill us, we might already be dead.”

Qiao He looked at Xu Wu seriously.

Xu Wu was slightly taken aback, then couldn't help but laugh. His smile was very handsome and bright: "Little Qiao He, how can you be so cute? You believed what I said so easily?"

"What if I just try to get information out of you? What if I kill you all to silence you after I get everything out of you? Aren't you afraid I'll do that?" Xu Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, smiling mysteriously.

Qiao He shook her head: "No, I believe you."

Xu Wu hesitated, then finally sighed helplessly, "Fine, you really are..."

"Go ahead and tell me, I want to hear it too, is that person really Lin Xun as you say?"

Qiao He nodded and replied, "Okay, thank you, Sister Xu Wu."

"I'm not actually here to look for him, but to look for my cat."

"There was a cat named Little Joss, the same cat you killed after you transformed into Qiao Yuan."

"As you know, I have a lot of kittens. Even after the apocalypse, I never gave up on them because they are my family."

“Precisely because they are family, I could never easily abandon them. As for Joss, he was taken away by Lin Xun by a twist of fate, because… my cat is very smart.”

Qiao He was silent for a moment, then said, "He has most likely mutated and evolved after being stimulated by the natural disaster."

"So not only has his IQ changed, but his physical fitness and strength have also improved significantly."

"That's why Lin Xun has his eye on you. So, Sister Xu, have you ever seen the cat that's with Lin Xun?"

Qiao He looked at Xu Wu nervously, wanting to take out her phone so that Xu Wu could see Qiao Si's photos.

But she realized she was still dreaming and couldn't take her phone out at all.

Xu Wu frowned: "It's true that he has a cat with him, but I don't know if that cat is the same as yours."

"Do you have a picture of that kitten? Let me see it," Xu Wu asked.

Qiao He said hesitantly, "It's on my phone, but I'm in a dream right now, so I can't show it to you."

Xu Wu raised an eyebrow slightly: "I see, I understand."

She stretched out her slender, fair fingers and snapped them lightly. Then Qiao He found that she had a cell phone in her hand.

Qiao He: "..." Awesome.

Isn't Xu Wu's superpower even more powerful than Abu's?

Abu's ability can only create illusions that trap people inside, causing them to die. However, his illusions are not omnipotent. If the person's willpower is strong enough, they can easily break out of his illusions.

However, Xu Wu's special ability is different.

Qiao He considered herself to have a strong will, but she was still in a nightmare and was even talking to Xu Wu. Xu Wu could make Qiao He's phone appear in the nightmare with a snap of her fingers, which was truly a very powerful ability.

It can be said that Xu Wu's special ability is to control nightmares. Even if she doesn't kill people directly, she can slowly torment them to death in the nightmare.

No wonder that people like Cockroach can practically walk sideways in Z City, yet they are still so wary of Xu Wu, who has no subordinates. They don't dare to provoke him at all and will take a detour when they see Xu Wu.

So that's how it is.

He was afraid that Xu Wu might get angry one day and play him to death in a nightmare. That kind of death would be even more terrifying than being killed with a single blow, since he would be having nightmares in his dreams and experiencing real pain...

Qiao He swallowed hard, took a deep breath, opened her phone, quickly found Qiao Si's photo, and then showed it to Xu Wu.

Xu Wu glanced at it and said in a low voice, "It looks like this cat."

"But I can't be sure if it's your cat, because I've only seen it once. And I couldn't see it very clearly that time. I could vaguely sense that the colors were the same."

Xu Wu's words immediately perked Qiao He up. "Is everything you said true?"

"Of course, when have I ever lied to you?" Xu Wu said with a smile.

Qiao He was momentarily speechless. Indeed, she realized that Xu Wu had not lied to her.

However, her style of doing things is always unpredictable, and people don't know what she's up to.

Perhaps they wanted to help her, but now it seems like they want to kill them.

Xu Wu is a very mysterious person, but he seems to act according to his own nature. He won't be particularly kind to others just because they are profitable for him, nor will he kill someone simply because they can't give him anything.

Everything depends on her mood, or rather, her preferences.

Qiao He said in a deep voice, "One last thing, Sister Xu Wu, I still need you to tell me where Lin Xun is."

Xu Wu said calmly, "What, are you going to go find him?"

Qiao He nodded: "Yes."

Xu Wu sighed and rubbed her forehead, "Don't be silly."

"He's amazing, much more amazing than me."

"Going there now will only lead to your deaths, do you understand?"
