Chapter 48 Chapter 48 Premonition
A few nights ago, Chen Run successfully robbed Chen Shuangfu of his invisibility ability, but she had been so worried about Chi Shuangliu these days that she hadn't had time to experiment.
She began to practice in front of the mirror. At first, only the person was invisible, and the clothes and shoes were visible. After practicing a few times, the clothes could also become invisible, but they did not disappear completely. The whole person just began to "fade and become lighter."
After practicing repeatedly for a whole morning, she was finally able to disappear from the mirror smoothly.
Because she is currently at B level, this invisibility skill is only used at 50% to 60% of her ability. She can only hide her body and less intense energy fluctuations, and can only use it for herself. She cannot hide other people at the same time like Chen Shuangfu - but if she can be promoted to A level in the future, this ability may evolve again.
Having acquired a new and extremely useful superpower, Chen Run was as excited as if she had gotten a new toy. She was admiring it in front of the mirror when Chi Shuangliu walked into the room and called her to eat. She was holding back her mischief and deliberately hid in the corner without making a sound, intending to jump out and scare him later.
Chi Shuangliu called out twice, thinking that she was not in this room. He was about to go to another room to look for her, but suddenly, he stopped.
When he turned his head again, his eyes had turned into the vertical pupils of a cold-blooded animal, his eyes overflowing with aggression and desire for aggression, and he strode towards her.
Chen Run originally wanted to scare him, but unexpectedly, she was frightened by him. Before she could react, she was tightly gripped by him. The force was so strong that it seemed as if he wanted to embed her into his flesh and blood. She was even forced to cancel her invisibility.
She asked doubtfully, "Brother Chi?"
It's just a prank? Brother Chi's reaction is too big.
Chi Shuangliu had no intention of letting her go. His nose twitched and he kept sniffing her neck, as if he was not satisfied. He showed his sharp teeth and couldn't help biting her. Later, he became more and more presumptuous, and even wanted to lick her all over in an obscene way, leaving his own mark on every inch of her skin, so that other coveters would know that she was his.
No, not only the outside, but also the inside needs his mark.
Chen Run: “…”
Although it's a strange way to describe it, Chi Ge really is like a dog that lost and found its owner...
She felt a little out of control and reached out to push his head: "Brother Chi!"
Chi Shuangliu paused at the crook of her neck for a long time before his breathing slowly calmed down. His eyes were wet: "I don't like this ability."
He unconsciously used a commanding tone: "Don't use it again next time." It was obviously a very cold word, but because the voice was hoarse, it had a sticky and seductive smell, like the anger and complaints between lovers.
This ability blocked her physical energy fluctuations and scent. Based on his current abilities, if he didn't have a pair of beast eyes, he might not be able to find her in a short time.
Even though it was only for a few dozen seconds, the feeling of being out of control still made him extremely anxious, as if she had escaped from him - he simply couldn't stand it.
Fascinated by the beauty, Chen Run's ears felt numb: "...Okay."
Chi Shuangliu was very satisfied with her honesty and obedience and finally let go of her hand.
He was about to speak when Shen Run's phone on the table rang. His desire to control her became increasingly stronger, and without a second thought, he answered the video call before her.
The screen lit up, and a gentle and elegant male face appeared on the other side of the screen. His eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Shen Run's.
He seemed to have chosen the right angle carefully, and there were a few soft lights on his face, as if a filter effect was turned on.
When he saw Chi Shuangliu, his pupils suddenly shrank, and then returned to normal at an extremely fast speed.
He had a questioning look on his face: "You are...?"
Chen Run took the phone from Chi Shuangliu: "This is Chi Shuangliu." She looked at Chi Shuangliu again and lowered her voice: "This is Chen Wen."
She didn't want Chi Shuangliu to know about the little things going on at home, so she walked to the sanitary napkin and closed the door: "Didn't I pay you back the 10,000 yuan I borrowed from you before? What else do you want?"
Chen Wen was obviously not interested in the topic of the ten thousand yuan. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Who is he to you?" He looked straight at her and said, "Boyfriend?"
There was nothing wrong with admitting this, Shen Run nodded: "Yes, my boyfriend."
Shen Wen's expression suddenly became extremely complicated.
He was silent for a few seconds before his expression calmed down again. He asked with concern, "How long have you been talking? Do you know where he is from? Do you understand him?" He was like a brother who cared about his sister.
The questions he asked were quite normal, and in fact, every word was heartbreaking - except for the first one, Shen Run found that he couldn't answer any of them.
She had known Chi Ge for several months, but her understanding of him was limited to knowing his name, and she was not even sure of his exact age.
Chen Run was agitated by his few words and said in a bad tone: "This doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right? If you're fine, I'll hang up."
Chen Wen tactfully changed the subject: "Xiao Run, you haven't been home for a year. You didn't even come back for the Chinese New Year this year. Do you want to take advantage of the long vacation to come back?"
Just as Shen Run was about to refuse, he added slowly, "Mom misses you very much, and she hasn't been feeling well recently."
He seemed to have the ability to control people's hearts without leaving any trace. He spoke a simple sentence, but it became serious and hesitant.
Chen Wen didn't force her to come back, and his tone was normal: "But it still depends on your schedule. I'll hang up first."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Wen's face was solemn: "Not only did they have a cause and effect, but he actually deceived Xiaorun and became his lover. This variable is really..." He rubbed his eyebrows hard: "It's really terrible."
Behind him, layers of strange faces appeared again, their mouths opening and closing, as if they were saying something.
Chen Wen nodded: "That's right, from the moment the restriction was placed on him, he and the Chi clan were destined to be entangled. It's all cause and effect."
He frowned with a worried look on his face. "Xiao Run is in danger around him. I have to find a way to let her know what "He" really is."
Weird Face nodded in agreement.
......
While Chen Run and Shen Wen were on the phone, Chi Shuangliu also received a message from Lu Kuo. The two communicated via a high-end holographic projection. Lu Kuo showed him a three-dimensional map on the screen and reported a series of longitude and latitude coordinates: "According to your instructions, the company's people found a meteorite in the Amazon. It should be very large."
To avoid Chi Shuangliu's suspicion, he didn't make any decisions on his own. Instead, he asked cautiously, "It just so happens that a team of supernatural experts from our company is going to the Brazilian rainforest for an investigation. They have all the necessary documents and procedures. Do you need them to accompany you?"
Chi Shuangliu was about to nod, but a subtle hesitation flashed in his eyes.
The plan went smoothly. After finding the meteorite, his strength would undoubtedly be enhanced. Perhaps by then, he would not need the blood of the Chi family and could break through the restriction on his own.
He cannot keep using this human body. He needs to consume a large amount of resources on this planet to reshape his body. Humans have occupied too many resources, so when he says he wants to eliminate most of the human race, it is not just an angry remark, but a real battle of life and death.
It was obvious that the plan had already begun from the moment he cursed humanity many years ago, so why was he hesitating?
Facing Lu Kuo, his face showed no emotion, he just said "wait for me" and cut off the holographic projection.
Chen Run was playing with her phone on the sofa. Chi Shuangliu's mood calmed down instantly. He sat next to her, but it was not enough. He reached out and hugged her on his lap, then put his chin on her shoulder and asked lazily, "What are you looking at?"
Chen Run was about 1.7 meters tall, and it was really awkward for her to be manipulated into this petite position. She protested several times, but Chi Shuangliu only got worse, so she just let him do what he wanted - fortunately he was tall enough, so it didn't look so awkward.
Her face was a little serious. "News from the psychic group." She clicked on a blurred photo and showed it to him. "Yesterday, a low-level psychic and an ordinary woman died in a stadium. Judging by the circumstances, it seems to be the work of psychics. The patrol team has initially classified it as a vendetta and is investigating."
As she spoke, she frowned: "This low-level psychic uses his superpowers to impersonate a 'master' and defraud people. His superpower is damage transfer. The woman must be his client." Due to the heavy mosaic, she did not recognize the person in the photo.
Chi Shuangliu was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "It sounds like they all deserved to die."
Chen Run disagreed with this statement: "If you say that, then everyone will kill people in private to avenge their crimes. What's the point of having police and patrol teams? The world will be in chaos then."
Although she is now a psychic, she still has to sigh honestly: "I think superpowers are really not a good thing. They are like a curse."
Chi Shuangliu paused again, his tone indifferent: "Oh? Why do you say that?"
Chen Run counted on his fingers and said to him: "Look, after the superpowers evolve, they will psychologically distinguish themselves from ordinary people. When they encounter something, the first thing they think of is not to call the police, but to use their superpowers to solve everything. How much chaos has society caused after the emergence of superpowers? Superpowers have divided humanity into two camps."
Her expression gradually grew serious. “So I want to join the patrol team, stop these vicious incidents from happening, and do my best to restore social order.”
At this moment, Chi Shuangliu finally realized why he treated Shen Run so differently - she was the only one who had clearly stated his purpose.
If the situation had not allowed it, he would have wanted to applaud her.
Unfortunately, it was just this person who chose to stand against herself.
What disgusted him even more was his growing concern for her. At that moment just now, he even had the idea of changing his plan for her.
Chi Shuangliu put her down, stood up, stretched his muscles, and said in a gentle and firm tone: "I need to go out for a while."
Shen Run was stunned for a moment, subconsciously thinking of Shen Wen’s questions.
If it was before when they were still working together, she would never ask any more questions, but now... She asked somewhat helplessly: "Where are you going? What are you doing?"
Intellectually, she vaguely realized that Chi Shuangliu might not be what she imagined, and he was even unwilling to let her get to know him better. But emotionally, she might never meet someone who was so good to her again. She couldn't control her love for him, so she was impetuous, anxious, and worried about gains and losses.
In a sense, he did succeed in manipulating her emotions, and she could no longer live without him.
Chi Shuangliu looked at her with a smile and deliberately did not answer.
