Gifts from afar
"I can't do that."
Jiang Ziyao answered quickly, he was calm, his voice was low and firm.
"You can't, you have to-!"
Ye Qian took a breath: "You must do as I say!"
The fine lines on her face wrinkled together, and she suddenly became excited. She grabbed his shoulders with both hands and looked at him anxiously: "You should have seen clearly that this place is messy and dirty. If you go against Zhou Kangcheng, he will not let you go! He has no bottom line, but you have weaknesses!"
"Why can't you just care about yourself?"
Jiang Ziyao lowered his head, and took in Ye Qian's sudden loss of composure. Her cold fingers brought him chill. Jiang Ziyao did not struggle. His quiet appearance had clearly stated his position.
Seeing that he was unmoved, Ye Qian sighed and continued to persuade him stubbornly, "These things have nothing to do with you. Don't get involved in this mess."
"I can't do that."
Jiang Ziyao said in a more determined tone. He pried Ye Qian's hands away from him and took two steps back, even separating their shadows. "This experiment must be terminated."
"Zhou Kangcheng will also pay the price for what he did. I know what I should do. If you are being coerced, I just hope you won't stop me. What I did was for myself. I don't have the ability to care about others, but the threat exists, so I have to resolve it."
Jiang Ziyao guessed that the reason why he did not become a member of the basement experimental subjects was probably because he hid his special abilities. At least Zhou Kangcheng did not know his secret. The other "Jiang Ziyao" was not treated well because his experience was different from his own.
The text said that Ye Qian helped "him" secretly, which is why they can still stand here and talk.
“No…” Ye Qian shook her head repeatedly: “I can’t watch you walk into danger. You clearly have a safe way to go.”
Jiang Ziyao rejected her: "Ms. Ye, I don't need this concern. I am fine, and I hope you are fine too. Your healing ability is very strong, isn't it? My friend also praised you in front of me. You once saved his life."
After saying that, he turned around, helped Huo Chi up from the bed, and forcefully woke him up with his hands.
"Brother Jiang?" Huo Chi opened his eyes and looked at Jiang Ziyao's face.
"It's time to go." Jiang Ziyao's tone was a little cold. He let Huo Chi put his hand on his shoulder and stood up stutteringly.
Huo Chi had not fully regained consciousness yet and was smiling at him foolishly, but Jiang Ziyao was very annoyed now and he had no time to appreciate and record Huo Chi's silly look. The sedative had an anesthetic effect and all he could hear was Huo Chi's intermittent voice.
Huo Chi turned into a repeater.
"How long will it take for him to return to normal?"
"Get some sleep."
Jiang Ziyao nodded, and seeing that his attitude was firm, Ye Qian stopped persuading him.
Jiang Ziyao walked past Ye Qian and dragged Huo Chi out. Before they walked out of the infirmary door, Ye Qian's footsteps caught up with them. She shouted behind them, "Wait, take this before you go."
"Brother Jiang?" Huo Chi asked in a low voice. He seemed to be drunk and was trying to kiss Jiang Ziyao in a daze.
Jiang Ziyao pushed his head away mercilessly.
"Quiet."
Jiang Ziyao's harsh tone made Huo Chi shudder subconsciously. His eyes widened for a moment, and his body reacted faster than his brain, and he pursed his lips tightly.
After a pause, Ye Qian had already caught up with him.
Jiang Ziyao frowned and paused. When he turned around, he saw her handing him a bag of things. "You haven't eaten yet, right? I prepared dinner for you in advance. Two servings, hot, and a bottle of recovery potion. Take it."
"I can heal injuries but not diseases. Don't hurt your body." Seeing that Jiang Ziyao didn't answer, she continued, "I will put an end to this matter. There will be no new experimental subjects. I can't persuade you. If you need me, I will help you."
Jiang Ziyao asked politely: "Why?"
Ye Qian looked at him, not saying anything for a long time, and was a little absent-minded: "My sister has a smart child. Now that she is gone, it is my responsibility to take care of him. Good boy, you know what I am talking about."
Blood relationship has long been an unspoken fact between the two.
Ye Qian reminded, "If you want to overthrow Zhou Kangcheng, someone has to take his place. You have to be prepared and don't let anything happen to you, okay?"
She smiled faintly again, blending into the shadows and leaving.
Jiang Ziyao also knew what Ye Qian said.
After Zhou Kangcheng's death, Utopia urgently needed a new leader who could establish his authority among the extraordinary people and ordinary people.
In order to kill Zhou Kangcheng, the following prerequisites must be met.
1. Bian Chengsi sees all the truth, and they work together to deal with Zhou Kangcheng.
2. Deal with Wang Yu and his group of law enforcers.
Wang Yu will not stand on his side in this matter, he must solve this trouble in advance. Without endangering Wang Youyou, he will often visit the child in his spare time. Wang Youyou is a lovely child.
Jiang Ziyao let out a breath.
And now, he just wanted to lie down right now, take a damn breath, and then close his eyes. Maybe at dawn, he would wake up in the apartment he used to rent. Unfortunately, he had trouble falling asleep. As soon as he closed his eyes, his mind would recall the painful groans of those experimental subjects, and the look of that child lying on the glass with eagerness.
"Brother Jiang?" Jiang Ziyao didn't know the time and it was Huo Chi who woke him up.
Huo Chi's hair was still steaming, and he was using his supernatural powers to evaporate the water vapor. He took a shower early and asked Jiang Ziyao, "Brother Jiang, can you handle it? Soak in hot water first and change into clean clothes."
Jiang Ziyao sat up from the bed, was silent for a while, and nodded.
Huo Chi pulled him into the bathroom, took off his shirt, washed his hair, and dried it, providing a one-stop service.
"That kid didn't come back last night."
Huo Chi waited until Jiang Ziyao had packed up before mentioning it.
"Then go downstairs and look for him. You won't lose him."
Jiang Ziyao glanced at the table in the living room. Last night's meal had already gone cold. He felt his trouser pocket and found the things were still there. He also had to hand over Wen Liao's information to Zhou Zhe.
Huo Chi then asked, "What happened last night? I only remember that I was stabbed in the neck, and I forgot everything."
"Yes, there are some things." Jiang Ziyao replied: "We can talk slowly when we have time."
"Okay." Huo Chi nodded.
He reached out to pull the door, and as soon as he opened it, someone bumped into him from behind.
"You..." Huo Chi was speechless. Bian Chengsi was actually squatting at the door. He turned his head and revealed his baggy head.
Huo Chi raised his feet and stepped back: "What are you doing?"
Bian Chengsi calmly made room for him. His tiredness was not obvious, but he probably hadn't slept all night. "I came back late, and I didn't want to wake you up, so I didn't go in."
"Are you acting like this?" Huo Chi said, "You're squatting at the door late at night, feeling depressed and depressed?"
Bian Chengsi disagreed: "I was just thinking about something."
Jiang Ziyao took out a bottle of medicine he had just obtained and handed it to him.
"No need." Bian Chengsi shook his head: "It's a waste."
"If you cure it, there will be a new one."
Huo Chi asked, "Who caused the bump on your forehead?"
"I don't remember. There were quite a lot of people." Bian Chengsi replied: "I want to resolve that matter, but the dead cannot be resurrected. I was wrong and it is wrong."
Jiang Ziyao frowned slightly and took his hand back: "Do you have any clues about the person who hurt you?"
"Yes." Bian Chengsi's face was like ice.
"who?"
When Jiang Ziyao asked further, Bian Chengsi looked at him for a long time, opened his mouth and was about to say something when he was interrupted by the sudden sound of an alarm. The sharp sound was like a knife piercing the eardrum. Judging from the location of the sound, it came from the direction of the north sentry tower.
Jiang Ziyao was a little annoyed by the sound, and they rushed over as fast as they could. From a distance, he saw that the gate of the North Watchtower was tightly closed, and the alarm did not sound for too long. He also did not hear any other sounds of fighting, and the people patrolling on the watchtower were standing quietly.
"He's here."
It was Liu Xin’s voice.
Jiang Ziyao and his two companions soon met the second team. He glanced over and saw Wang Yu and Mo Yu holding weapons in their hands, aiming at a man. The man was wearing a plaid shirt and a cowboy hat, and he was squatting in the open space with his hands on his head, like a suspect.
"What happened?" Jiang Ziyao asked.
"A person appeared out of nowhere and just bumped into me." Wang Yu said.
"It was a small mistake." The man's voice was not mature.
Wang Yu smiled faintly and said, "The important thing is that he asked to see you by name. Take a look. Do you know him?"
The man turned his head at the same time, glanced in the direction of Jiang Ziyao and the other two, glanced at Huo Chi, and finally fixed his eyes with shining eyes on Jiang Ziyao.
"Oh my God! Are you Jiang Ziyao?" The man stood up suddenly and stared at him.
"You know me?" Jiang Ziyao stared at the strange man in front of him motionlessly.
"certainly!"
In the blink of an eye, the sound was closer.
The stranger teleported in front of Jiang Ziyao at a distance of two hundred meters.
[——Text: Gene sequence 05, time and space.]
【Special category.】
【Level: High level. 】
Jiang Ziyao was surprised.
"My name is Xi Feibai," said the powerful stranger, and pointed his left hand backwards: "No offense, ma'am, but be careful of any accidents."
Wang Yu had the gun pointed at the back of his head and didn't put it down.
"You don't look like a good person." Liu Xin said unceremoniously, "For safety reasons, you should be locked up first."
"Okay, I don't mind you being on guard against me." Yu Feibai sighed in distress. He stretched out his right hand towards Jiang Ziyao. "If you don't mind, can you shake hands with me?"
Huo Chi immediately said, "No."
He clenched his fist and twisted his wrist: "You'd better stay away."
"Okay, no problem." Xi Feibai lowered his head towards Huo Chi in dismay and retracted his hand. He kept smiling: "I'm actually here to pass on the message and send a gift for my boss. I'm a friend, not an enemy!"
Jiang Ziyao asked: "Who is your boss?"
"The Lost Land, Mr. H, you should have heard of it, right?"
Xi Feibai hesitated for a moment, then took out a long gift box from his pocket, bent down and handed it to Jiang Ziyao in a gentlemanly manner: "For you."
Huo Chi frowned and looked at the black gift box tied with a bow: "What is this?"
"You'll know after you see it."
Jiang Ziyao stared at Yu Feibai. Under his enthusiastic gaze, he took the gift box in his hand, opened it, reached in his fingers, and took out a red rose.
This is a living rose, its petals are complete and bright, a color that has disappeared from this world long ago.
"There are words." Jiang Ziyao pulled out a white card from the folder, and black ink clearly wrote:
Gift to your lover.
—Your husband, H.
