Riley the Ripper
Mom's image is vague in memory, sometimes it's a hand, sometimes it's a smiling young face. She has always lived in a photo frame, and she is no longer in Jiang Ziyao's dreams after he turned fifteen. He can only remember that gentle shadow as much as possible, but the woman in front of him has a face that is the same as his mother's when she was young.
The high-level healing ability instantly restored his hand to its original state, but the burning feeling in his heart did not diminish at all.
Ye Qian asked him: "What's your last name?"
Jiang Ziyao: "I believe in Jiang."
Ye Qian: "What's your mother's name?"
Jiang Ziyao raised his eyes. The person in front of him had a sincere look in her eyes. Her tone was relaxed and she was just talking to him about some common things. This drew a picture of a strange figure in his mind, his mother.
But his parents' bodies were displayed in the hospital morgue, and he and his grandmother went to claim them in person. His grandmother took him into the cold room. He was crying, crying heart-wrenchingly and coughing. His grandmother was supported by a crutch, but she did not fall down or shed tears. She held him in her arms and patted his back.
Jiang Ziyao felt very regretful and guilty. He allowed himself to collapse and threw all the pain and responsibility onto his elderly grandmother. She held a funeral in silence, buried his parents in the backyard of their original home, and planted his mother's favorite sunflowers.
He thought that time would allow them to get over the pain, but his grandmother's health collapsed first. Before Jiang Ziyao's parents got into trouble, she knew that she didn't have much time left. When she was holding the death notice, during those three hours in the hospital, what kept her going was the desire to leave a way out for her only grandson before she died.
One morning, Jiang Ziyao could no longer wake up his grandmother, and could only watch as her body was covered with white maggots and her face was corroded...
Jiang Ziyao paused, and Ye Qian immediately said, "Sorry, I didn't mean to be presumptuous, I just think... you look a lot like a relative of mine." She had a relaxed look on her face, "We were originally the closest people in the world, but unfortunately we lost contact decades ago, and it's impossible for us to meet again."
"Who is it?"
"My sister." Ye Qian's smile was a little forced: "How old are you this year?"
"23."
"You are still young." Ye Qian said, "I have only seen one law enforcer as young as you. They are all poor children. Everyone who comes here has a story. Come, stand next to me and help me hold the cat."
Jiang Ziyao did as he was told. He watched Ye Qian's skillful movements as she gave the orange cat a subcutaneous shot of vaccine.
Ye Qian put the needle back in place: "You are tall and handsome, you must be very likable. Where did you live before?"
"Guangqin City."
"Guangqin..." Ye Qian sighed twice, "I also stayed there when I was a kid. When I left, there was no subway yet. I've seen photos of it. When I was thirty, it had already developed quite well. I've always regretted not going back to take a look. By the way, what do your parents do?"
"them……"
Jiang Ziyao said calmly: "They died more than ten years ago, and their memories stopped in a beautiful world."
With a snap, the glass needle fell to the ground. Ye Qian looked up in shock: "How pitiful."
Jiang Ziyao wanted to clean up the glass shards on the ground, but Ye Qian stopped him: "No, no, get up." She kicked the glass shards away and lowered her head. She didn't look at Jiang Ziyao anymore, but just said: "You can live well, and your family will be happy too."
"certainly."
She seemed to be seeing another person through me, Jiang Ziyao thought.
[——Text: Ye Qian is my aunt, she is my mother's twin sister, but my grandfather took her abroad when she was very young and there has been no news since then. My mother has never mentioned her, but they were once the most similar and closest people in the world.
I didn't recognize her. I felt strange and burdened by blood relatives. It was not until later that I realized that she knew I was her sister's son the first time she saw me, because I looked 80% like her son, and her child died in a cold day...】
"This is medicine for Youyou." Ye Qian handed the bag to Jiang Ziyao: "If you are injured, come to me for treatment in time. Of course..."
"I don't want you to become a regular here."
Ye Qian took out some more medicine and stuffed it into his bag: "This is a spray made with my special power. It can relieve even the most serious injuries. You can always use it when you are on a mission outside. By the way..."
"You're supposed to live in the Enforcer Building?"
Jiang Ziyao nodded.
"Well, then I won't see you off."
Ye Qian clasped her hands together and stood still.
"You can come to me when you have nothing to do. I happen to be in need of an assistant."
It turned out that he still had relatives in this world. Jiang Ziyao took his things and walked out of the glass door. He glanced quickly at the corridor behind him, but it was too dark and he could not see anything.
[On October 9, the clock showed 12 o'clock, the alarm suddenly sounded, and the East Watchtower was attacked by two core members of the Saint Society.
The high walls were destroyed in the same way.
In the West Watchtower, Wang Yu's team found it difficult to escape. Although the first team rushed back to support, Utopia still suffered a blow, with dozens of casualties. The true strength of the Saint Society was revealed, and such a threat made it difficult for the people in the base to sleep peacefully.
Only then did I realize that the people inside this high wall had become accustomed to the comfort inside. They didn't even have any weapons to protect themselves. They were like lambs under the fence and could only be slaughtered at will.
The saint will leave, and the conflict between humans and strangers will officially begin...】
As soon as these words appeared, Jiang Ziyao stopped and looked up in the direction of the east sentry tower. His vision was still calm.
The time on the big clock is 11:50
Ten minutes left.
Jiang Ziyao started running. The nearest place to the East Sentry Tower was the canteen and the food cultivation factory, which had the most employees. He looked at the ordinary people walking nearby. They were all unarmed and would be killed by the high-level aliens.
The East Watchtower must not be breached. This was the only thought in Jiang Ziyao's mind. He stuffed the medicine into his pocket and ran to the bottom of the city wall.
11:55.
Jiang Ziyao climbed up the stairs to the city wall, and when he looked up, he was greeted by several gun muzzles.
"Who is it?" asked the leader.
Jiang Ziyao calmly raised the authority card Su Yunyun gave him and said, "The agent of the Second Law Enforcement Team is here to take over the security of the East Watchtower."
He waved the card in front of the other party, and the leader said suspiciously: "The thing is real, but I didn't receive any notification."
"Because it's an emergency now, the battle at the West Watchtower is in full swing, and Captain Wang can't come in person." Jiang Ziyao took a breath and hooked the tag on the leader's neck with his hand: "Wang Ji, right?"
Jiang Ziyao ordered: "Sound the alarm now and notify the first squad that the east sentry tower is under enemy attack."
Wang Ji frowned: "Falsely spreading an alarm is a serious crime."
"Any responsibility can be put on me!" Jiang Ziyao said, "Tell all of you who can move now to prepare your bullets!"
The people in front of him looked solemn and still hesitated. Someone said, "If there is a problem, you aliens will still put the blame on us!"
11:58.
"Okay, then I can only try another way." Jiang Ziyao let out a breath, turned around, stretched out his hand to pinch Wang Ji's shoulder, and instantly pointed the gun at his temple.
Wang Ji heard the sound of the safety being pulled, "Don't... don't shoot!"
"I'm not interested in your life." Jiang Ziyao shouted, "Sound the alarm now!"
Wang Ji also shouted: "Listen to him! Sound the alarm!"
The person in front of him really started to move.
Buzz-buzz!
The watchtower's red light flashed and the sirens sounded rapid and shrill.
12:00.
The big clock also rang regularly.
Jiang Ziyao pushed Wang Ji away. Wang Ji was cursing on the side. He looked down quietly. Sure enough, two dark shadows appeared in his sight. They walked briskly and their laughter could be heard from a long distance away.
"The enemy is coming! Concentrate fire!" Jiang Ziyao shouted.
"What are you standing there for? Shoot!"
"Where is it?" Wang Ji came over.
"This is someone I've never seen before. Are you sure he's an enemy?"
Jiang Ziyao gave him a gloomy look, and Wang Ji had no choice but to give up and gesture: "Shoot!"
The man behind him raised his gun and the gunshots crackled like firecrackers. The figure in front of him did not move because the man on the city wall was so poor at shooting.
"Fuck, have you ever practiced shooting?" Jiang Ziyao cursed, genuinely surprised by their unfamiliar movements.
"Don't you know how to aim at the head?" He snatched a rifle, put his finger on the trigger, closed one eye, aimed at the opponent's head, and fired the first shot within five seconds.
The black shadow in the field of vision flashed away instantly, and Jiang Ziyao's bullet penetrated the floor where they were resting. Although the bullets did not pose much threat to high-level aliens, the concentrated firepower could also distract their attention.
Jiang Ziyao frowned. The blond man under the city seemed to have noticed him as well. Two shadows were already within a hundred meters. The blond man was from O country. His facial features were wild, with blue eyes. He looked towards Jiang Ziyao, with two fingers on the corners of his mouth, sticking out his tongue to force a smile.
Jiang Ziyao met his gaze without hesitation. The blond man shook his head, stretched his hands lazily, spread his palms, and made an arc with his arms.
[Gene sequence, 44, stone strike.]
Jiang Ziyao immediately pushed Wang Ji away and pressed him to the ground. With a loud bang, a hole was created where they were just now. With such destructive force, a person's head could be easily smashed.
Jiang Ziyao immediately propped himself up.
[Gene sequence, 35, wind blade.]
The text appeared again. Jiang Ziyao stretched out his hand and pulled Wang Ji, throwing him behind him. The blocking building in front was shattered. He jumped up and jumped down from the city wall. The blade condensed by the wind scratched several marks on the city wall like a claw.
Both of these superpowers come from this blond man. One person has two superpowers?
Jiang Ziyao took a deep breath and landed safely. Facing the two core members of the Saints' Society, he obviously had no intention of avoiding them.
The people in front of me, a man and a woman, were smiling sinisterly.
The man stared at him and raised his hand. His nails became sharp, like the claws of a wild beast, and there was a strong smell of blood.
High-level aliens have a sense of oppression about them.
Jiang Ziyao's face looked a little solemn.
[Gene sequence, 09, predator.]
