However, Lu Jiawei, this terrible teammate, was so heavy that he almost pulled Pan Lizhi to the ground several times.
Pan Lizhi was extremely anxious, but there was nothing he could do. He could only grit his teeth and use his last bit of strength to stagger away with Lu Jiawei.
On the other side, Xiao Jin gently raised her eyes to look at the bone whip that was trembling slightly in the air, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.
She had seen this whip before.
Recalling the owner of this whip, Xiao Jin couldn't help but roll her eyes: What bad luck!
Just as her thoughts were racing, the air around her suddenly froze.
Immediately afterwards, a series of footsteps approached from afar, carrying an undeniable threat and oppression, stepping on everyone's hearts and sending chills down their spines.
The person at the front walked briskly, accompanied by a tall figure appearing from around the corner, along with an annoying voice.
"Oh my, it's been so long!"
Everyone was on high alert. Xiao Jin looked up and was immediately met with Lu Jing's annoyingly smiling face.
The last time I saw him was in the Linhai High School instance. At that time, he pretended to be innocent in front of Xiao Jin, but Xiao Jin exposed his true colors.
The dungeon boss went on a killing spree back then, and this guy ran away incredibly fast. I never expected to run into him again...
Upon seeing Xiao Jin's gaze, Lu Jing's lips curled into an almost maniacal smile, a smile that held a hint of amusement and provocation.
"Looks like some people don't welcome me!"
"Well, you're quite self-aware," Xiao Jin clicked her tongue.
Upon closer inspection, Lu Jing was wearing a well-tailored black trench coat, the hem of which swayed gently in the wind, exuding an air of untamed spirit and perfectly highlighting his excellent physique.
Beneath the trench coat was a protective suit disguised as a tight-fitting tactical vest.
Unlike last time, Lu Jing had bleached his hair into a flashy pink, with a few strands falling unruly across his forehead, adding a touch of devilish charm and playfulness to his slightly aloof face.
When he smiles, his innocent yet mischievous expression is just like that of a big dog wagging its tail, making people feel close to him.
However, Xiao Jin knew that beneath this guy's outward appearance lay a heart colder than anyone else's.
"Hey, it's been a long time. Is this how you greet an old friend?" Lu Jing brandished the bone whip in his hand, but Xiao Jinniao ignored him.
The group of people behind her looked at Xiao Jin with great surprise, not expecting that she would know such a dangerous person.
Of course, among these gazes were a few angry ones, belonging to Professor Chen and others.
They believed that Xiao Jin and Lu Jing were putting on an act, and that Xiao Jin must have leaked the information about the helicopter.
Lu Jing didn't expect Xiao Jin to answer him. After finishing his own words, he looked at everyone.
"I've been waiting here for ages, and your efficiency is insanely slow," Lu Jing said, shaking his head with a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.
It seems they thought they were taking up too much time!
Lu Jing's gaze then wandered through the crowd, and each time his eyes met someone's, the person being looked at involuntarily shivered.
I felt a strange chill creep up my spine, making my hair stand on end.
After a moment, Lu Jing's gaze finally settled on Professor Chen.
There's no way around it; as a scientific research expert, he's naturally not young, and his demeanor is quite distinctive. He's the only one among them who meets the requirements.
Professor Chen had long since lost his white coat and was now wearing a slightly worn shirt, with silver glasses perched steadily on his nose.
"Professor Chen, we've finally waited for you." Lu Jing smiled slightly.
"Wait for me?" Old ginger is spicier after all.
As long as he wasn't dealing with mindless monsters, Professor Chen maintained a calm attitude towards sentient beings.
“Of course.” Lu Jing’s voice was deep and magnetic: “If I said that I came here specifically to meet you, I’m afraid you wouldn’t believe me…”
Professor Chen's lips twitched almost imperceptibly.
Lu Jing flicked his wrist slightly, retracting the bone whip.
Seeing this, Xiao Jin also stopped fighting. The sharp blade touched the ground lightly, making a "clang" sound, as if it was a warning, or as if he was waiting to see how things would develop.
A playful smile appeared on Lu Jing's lips, and a complex light flickered in his deep eyes.
“Professor Chen, your ideas are actually insignificant to me. The important thing is that you just need to follow me.” His tone left no room for argument.
"I will safely take you to your desired destination. As for the others..."
Upon hearing this, the others immediately became restless. Their hearts skipped a beat, and Lu Jing's intentions became crystal clear.
He only wanted to leave with Professor Chen; as for the other researchers, their lives or deaths were none of his concern.
Professor Chen made a mistake, but the others could see it clearly.
If it weren't for Xiao Jin's presence as a deterrent, Lu Jing would probably have already killed the other people who were getting in his way and left with Professor Chen.
His ruthless ambush of Pan Lizhi from the shadows just now is a clear example.
Xiao Guo's face flushed red, and he almost forced out a roar from his throat: "Are you crazy! Impossible, I won't let you take the teacher away!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Jing's lips curled into a half-smile, a smile tinged with sarcasm: "Oh? Impossible?"
He took a few steps forward, but Xiao Guo was terrified and retreated repeatedly.
Lu Jing acted as if he hadn't seen anything, and his smile grew even wider: "Let's not talk about what you're up to, where do you get the guts to deny what I'm saying?"
