Ke Jin met with the three companies he had agreed to meet with one after another in a hurry. Although he tried his best to improve efficiency, more than two hours had passed after completing the whole process.
"Have you chosen a company to cooperate with?" asked Secretary Xiaobai.
Ke Jin nodded: "Almost done, I will contact that company to sign the contract in a few days."
Secretary Xiaobai reminded him of some matters needing attention in signing the contract, and then the two said goodbye happily. Ke Jin took a taxi and went straight to the hotel where Ounuo was resting. The journey was very smooth, because he heard from the front desk that Ounuo had not asked to deliver lunch. Ke Jin thought that Ounuo was probably asleep, so when he arrived at the door of the room, he did not knock, but directly swiped the door card, quietly opened the door and walked in.
As a result, Ke Jin was stunned as soon as he took one step in.
——He never expected that there was a stranger in the room.
It was a tall young man, wiping his hair as he walked out of the bathroom. He had a great body, broad shoulders and a narrow waist, completely naked, with only a white bath towel wrapped around his waist. Drops of water flowed down the ends of his golden hair, dripping onto his strong chest and abdominal muscles. His legs were also long and strong, with smooth and toned muscle lines, and every proportion was almost perfect, very sexy.
Before Ke Jin could react, the young man had already wiped his hair and threw the towel aside, revealing his extremely handsome face - fair skin, shiny blonde hair, a straight nose, emerald eyes like a deep lake, and eyebrows with an extremely sharp look. He should have appeared cold and arrogant, but the dim light softened his look a bit, making it impossible to look away.
As if he suddenly sensed something, the man suddenly looked towards the door and happened to meet Ke Jin's eyes. Perhaps he didn't expect someone to suddenly break in, he was startled, showing a look of surprise, looking at Ke Jin who was a few steps away from him.
"Oh sorry, I went to the wrong room!"
Ke Jin took a step back reflexively, and when he was about to close the door quickly, his eyes caught sight of the house number.
Room 277... That's right! This is the room he booked for Ounuo. He didn't go wrong at all!
…
So what about this stranger who suddenly appeared?
Ounuo came from another planet, so he probably doesn't know anyone here, otherwise he would have told me long ago. Why would he have stayed here all this time...
——【You must keep an eye on little Nuonuo. The city's security is not good recently. Don't let him get kidnapped by human traffickers.】
The words that Gu Qianqian warned him in the morning suddenly rang in his ears. Ke Jin was slightly startled and his expression suddenly froze.
No, no way? Did I really run into a human trafficker?
Everything happened in a flash. The sense of crisis suddenly increased, and action came before thinking. The door, which had not been completely closed, was kicked open by Ke Jin. At this time, the people in the room had not yet come to their senses, and were still looking at Ke Jin with a surprised expression of "What are you doing?"
"you……"
The other party had just said a word when Ke Jin interrupted him viciously.
"Who are you?! Why are you here?!"
"I……"
The other party just said one more word, and Ke Jin suddenly remembered something and ran into the room, but there was no sign of the boy - all he saw was the messy bed and a few familiar children's clothes scattered on the floor, which were obviously what Ounuo wore when he went out. But somehow, these clothes were a little tattered, as if they were torn apart roughly.
The blood in Ke Jin's body instantly solidified, and his mind went blank. Although he didn't want to think in the worst direction, all kinds of worst thoughts were like bubbles bubbling in the dark swamp, bursting in front of his eyes one by one, making his back cold and even starting to feel nauseous.
"I know you can't accept it." A clear male voice with a casual and smiling tone came from behind. The man seemed to have no problem with it and walked to Ke Jin easily and naturally, "Well, listen to me..."
Although this unexpected "encounter" was a little unexpected for Oloyi, he quickly calmed down. After spending some time together, Oloyi felt that Ke Jin was still reliable, and after recovering his true form, the first thing he considered was whether to confront Ke Jin.
After repeated speculation and evaluation, he decided to tell the other party his identity. Just as Oloyi was thinking about how to word it reasonably, the black-haired young man next to him suddenly turned around, and then Oloyi felt a huge force hitting his abdomen. The strong impact and severe pain made him unable to stand steadily, and he staggered and hit the table behind him.
"I'll listen to you, you bastard!!!" Extreme anger made Ke Jin curse. He was so angry that his whole body was shaking. He didn't dare to imagine what the scene in front of him meant. There were bloodshot in his eyes. "Where's Ounuo?! Where is he?!"
Although he had not spent too much time with Ounuo and the other party often made him very angry, this child was the one that Ke Jin had been with day and night since he came to this strange world. Unconsciously, Ke Jin had already regarded Ounuo as an important person like a family member.
But now, because of his negligence, the boy not only went missing, but also suffered a terrible thing. How could Ke Jin not blame himself and feel angry! So he kicked hard and fiercely, but to Ke Jin's surprise, the other party's physical fitness was quite good. He did not fall down, but staggered a few steps and stared at him in shock and anger.
"Hey! You..."
Ouluo was completely confused by Ke Jin's sudden outburst. After all, he used to be very gentle and good-tempered, and now he looked like a thug with red eyes. But before Ouluo could come back to his senses, he was hit hard again. Ke Jin rushed over like a madman, kicking and beating him violently, as if he would not stop until he killed him.
"Hey are you crazy?!"
Although Ke Jin was not a martial artist, the power of his aura was terrifying. Oloy was almost beaten to the point of vomiting blood. He instinctively wanted to activate the supernatural card to control the opponent, but he thought that the supernatural card was too lethal and using it carelessly would cause irreversible damage to the opponent, so he paused in the action of taking the card.
It was during this moment of hesitation that Ke Jin punched him hard in the face. Ouloi's eyes went dark immediately, and he felt a bloody taste in his mouth. His barely supported body finally fell down, and was severely suppressed by the opponent.
"How dare you..."
"What do you mean by 'you'? I'm your uncle!" Ke Jin said angrily, and kicked him hard again. "Let me ask you, where is Ounuo?! Where did you move him to?! What did you do to him?!!"
Ke Jin swore that if anything happened to Ounuo today, he would beat him to death! !
...No, this kind of beast is not worthy of being called a "human" at all!!
After being beaten so hard, Ouluo finally understood what Ke Jin meant from his roar. However, Ke Jin's kick just hit his most sensitive part, and Ouluo was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat. It was lucky that he didn't faint directly, so he couldn't even speak.
After the explosive catharsis, Ke Jin panted and calmed down a little. While the man on the ground had no strength to resist, Ke Jin looked around and decisively pulled the bed sheet, then tore it into several pieces and used it as a rope to tie the strange young man tightly like a dumpling.
"Are you fucking crazy?! Let me go... Ugh! Ugh!!"
Ke Jin looked at the rag stuffed in the man's mouth with an extremely grim expression. After the "fight" just now, he was also a little bruised, but he didn't take it seriously, because the man was in a worse situation - who made this pervert not wear any clothes, he deserved to be beaten to death!
After taking a few deep breaths and trying his best to calm himself down, Ke Jin suppressed his uneasy mood and searched the entire room carefully again.
Unfortunately, apart from the tattered clothes, all Ke Jin found were the clothing cards he had just bought for Ounuo in the morning. As for Ounuo himself... he was completely missing.
The rage in his heart could no longer be suppressed. Although he wanted to "torture" and interrogate the bastard, Ke Jin also understood: At a time like this, he had to do it professionally!
Without further delay, he quickly took out his communicator and was about to dial a number when he suddenly realized: he didn't even know what the emergency number in this world was. It would be useless to call 110 now...
"Behave yourself!" Ke Jin put away the communicator, glared at the other person threateningly, walked forward and tried the ropes that bound him, and after making sure that the guy really couldn't break free, he quickly left the room and went downstairs to find the front desk to call the police for help.
***
After hearing Ke Jin's narration, the hotel staff were shocked. The girl at the front desk immediately called the police, and several other security guards followed Ke Jin upstairs.
Everyone rushed into the room, but did not see the "suspected human trafficker" that Ke Jin mentioned. Instead, they saw a well-dressed little boy sitting by the bed with a grim face.
"Ouno?!"
Ke Jin could hardly believe his eyes. After a moment of shock, he immediately rushed over in surprise and joy.
"Ouno! Where did you go just now... Damn! Who beat you up like this!?"
Although the boy seemed to be fine, there was a black spot at the corner of his mouth, obviously from being beaten; judging from the skin exposed at the collar, there seemed to be some scars on his body, although not serious, it was still shocking to see them on a child.
"Did that bastard do it?" Ke Jin's heart ached, but he was afraid of scaring the obviously depressed boy, so he could only suppress his anger and comfort him softly, "Don't be afraid, no one will hurt you. Did that pervert escape? Don't worry, evil will be punished, he will be caught sooner or later! That kind of guy will not have a good end!"
“…”
The boy glanced at Ke Jin quietly and said nothing.
——Oloy is so tired now that he doesn’t want to talk at all.
In other words, he has nothing to say now except MMP.
Ouluoyi thought: Did I owe Ke Jin something in my previous life? Otherwise, why are all the bad things related to this guy? ?
Well, not to mention that he spent so much money, using dozens of rare cards to synthesize the "magic card" to force himself to return to his original appearance, but he was beaten up before his state was stable, and his state was directly reverted back to normal...
This is not the point! ! The point is! He has never been beaten since he was a child - after all, no one dared to beat him, the fourth prince - but today he was beaten up! This is the first time in his life! And in the embarrassing situation of not wearing any clothes...
Damn, is this guy my nemesis? ! ! He was born to cause me trouble, right? !
Ou Luoyi was really angry, and what made him even angrier was that he couldn't say anything at all. He knew that Ke Jin had misunderstood, but how could he have known that those tattered clothes would give him such a big stimulus? If he had known that he would take them off in advance when he recovered, if they hadn't been torn, he wouldn't have even had a chance to explain, and would have been beaten up like a pervert...
Ahhhh! Damn it!! I am so wronged!!
The more Oloyi thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. But even if he was so depressed that he injured himself and vomited blood, he always kept his lips tightly pursed. No matter how Ren Kejin asked, he refused to say a word about the situation of "that person".
——This guy brought such a large group of people with him. How could I possibly explain my identity in such a situation? !
Since Ou Nuo refused to cooperate, Ke Jin had no way of knowing what had happened in the room. However, he did not dare to ask too much. After all, the scars on the boy's body were real. Ke Jin guessed that the reason why Ou Nuo refused to speak was because he had suffered too much psychological trauma. He must not be stimulated again now, and could only be guided slowly at the right time in the future.
The police arrived quickly. They checked the hotel’s surveillance footage and did not find any strange people entering or leaving the hotel. However, the instruments they brought detected residual supernatural fluctuations in the room, so they were able to preliminarily determine that the other party had used supernatural cards to "escape."
Azure Star has strict restrictions on the use of supernatural cards. The police took this matter very seriously, but because Ounuo was in "poor condition", they could not forcibly interrogate him. So they asked Ke Jin to leave his contact information and make an appointment to follow up with an interview.
This "attempted kidnapping" incident came to a temporary end. The people from the hotel and the police station evacuated, and finally only Ke Jin and the boy were left in the room.
"Let's go back, Ounuo?" Ke Jin touched the boy's head tentatively and said softly.
The other party still refused to say anything and did not respond.
"How about I carry you on my back later?" Ke Jin tried hard to smile, but found it difficult to even move the corners of his mouth.
...He really regretted it.
Why did he agree to leave Uno here alone? Why did he leave so confidently? How could he not even protect a child?
He has no relatives in this world. When he first arrived in this completely unfamiliar world, he began a completely unknown life. He was timid and lonely. Although he met many kind and enthusiastic people like Gu Qianqian, he was always confused and bewildered when it was late at night.
——Luckily, the child is still here.
No matter who the other person is, as long as there is someone who can always be by my side, the feeling in my heart will be completely different. Although I have never said it out loud, this little figure is indeed the most precious existence that supported me through the initial days of hesitation.
"...Ouno, I'm sorry."
Perhaps silence can always evoke a person's most vulnerable emotions, or perhaps what is happening in front of him has triggered long-lost memories. Ke Jin's mood has become increasingly heavy, and even his voice has become low.
"I failed to protect you."
The boy finally turned his head. He looked at Ke Jin silently for a while, then sighed, as if he was very helpless.
"Don't think too much, I'm actually fine." It just hurts a little bit...
"Really?"
In fact, based on the situation at the scene and past experience, the police had roughly determined that Ou Nuo had not suffered a very serious assault, but Ke Jin was still worried and thought they were just saying that to comfort themselves.
"Nonsense, why would I lie to you?" The boy snorted disdainfully, suddenly jumped off the bed and pointed to the ground beside him.
"Huh?" Ke Jin didn't understand.
"Didn't you say you would carry me on your back?" The boy held his head high, his voice as arrogant as ever.
Ke Jin was slightly startled: Although the other party still looked a little listless, the proud and bright light in his eyes had not yet extinguished. Perhaps... things were not as bad as he thought.
"Okay." Ke Jin knelt on one knee, carried the boy steadily on his back, and finally a smile appeared on his face again.
"Well, let's go home."
