Volume 1_Chapter 269 Parasitism



Jiang Yu's hands began to tremble when he learned that there was a clue about his sister Jiang Tong's disappearance.

I felt an urge in my heart, and I wanted to rush alone to find Song Yuebin's convoy.

After three whole years, he finally heard news about his sister again!

But he held back.

Captain Song will send the person over as soon as possible.

The most important task now is to follow Su Tao to Xindu and protect her along the way.

Su Tao comforted him: "Captain Song and his men will arrive in Xindu in four days at most if they leave now. We will leave tomorrow and just meet up with them. Hang in there for three or four days, and then you can leave them to me. Ask whatever you want."

Jiang Yu took a deep breath and replied, "As you say."

"Yeah, it's getting late. Go back to bed. We have to be ready to leave at 7 tomorrow."

Jiang Yu hesitated for two seconds and then said:

"There's another thing. I recently noticed that Qu Jingwen sometimes talks to herself."

Su Tao was stunned. She almost forgot about Qu Jingwen.

Since she suddenly surrendered, although it was a bit strange, Su Tao was too busy and had no energy to pay attention to her, so he ignored this person.

"What are you talking about?"

Jiang Yu frowned and hesitated:

"It's very strange, a bit like the multiple personality disorder I know about. She's talking to another self, and she looks very painful and hideous. I think she's a little uncontrollable. It's best to have Director Qi keep a closer eye on her to prevent any trouble after we leave."

Su Tao frowned and asked, "When did she start to be like this?"

"It's only been these past two weeks. Everything was fine before that. I was surprised too."

The next day, before dawn, Su Tao had not yet gone to tell Qi Yunlan, Qu Jingwen actually came to her on her own.

She looked haggard, as if she hadn't slept for many days.

From Su Tao's angle, she could see scratches under her collar.

Self-harm?

"Qu Jingwen" was about to speak, as if she wanted to shout for help, but just as she opened her mouth, her face suddenly twisted, and her aura completely changed. When she opened her eyes again, she saw Su Tao was stunned at first, and then she rushed over with her teeth and claws bared, and said hatefully:

"Su Tao! You killed Tan Yong! You killed him! You didn't even let me see his body, you—"

Jiang Yu kicked her over.

Su Taoxiao took a step back and was shocked to find that this was the real Qu Jingwen!

Qu Jingwen got up and wanted to rush over, but was knocked unconscious by Jiang Yu's elbow.

Su Tao frowned, squatted down and rolled up her sleeves, and sure enough, she saw knife wounds on her arms.

There are also some on the legs, and there is a deep one on the stomach.

She obviously didn't ask Zhong Gaoyi for help, but simply bandaged it herself, which caused the wound to still bleed.

A bit weird.

"Let's take her to Dr. Zhong for a checkup first."

Jiang Yu immediately tied up the person on the ground like a dumpling and prepared to send him to the clinic.

As soon as they arrived at the clinic, "Qu Jingwen" woke up faintly, saw Su Tao, grabbed her arm, and shouted weakly:

"Boss Su, save me!"

Zhong Gaoyi trotted out: "What's wrong? Aren't you guys about to leave?"

Su Tao told him, "Let us use your office for a while. She'll leave after we've dealt with it."

After closing the office door, Jiang Yu tied "Qu Jingwen" to a chair.

"Qu Jingwen" didn't struggle at all, maybe because she didn't have the strength.

"Tell me, what's going on? Who are you?"

"Qu Jingwen" pursed her lips and said, "Is there anything to refresh me? If I relax a little, she will come out."

Su Tao asked Jiang Yu to buy her a cup of coffee.

Qu Jingwen drank it in one gulp, then cheered up and said:

"I'm sorry, Boss Su, I'm not Qu Jingwen, I just 'borrowed' her body."

Su Tao narrowed her eyes and asked, "How did you borrow it?"

"Qu Jingwen" was silent for two seconds and said:

"My real name is Mu Qiqi. I don't know if you heard my name when you were investigating Tan Yong. I was abducted by Tan Yong fifteen years ago. I was only seventeen years old at the time. On my way to the north to find my relatives, I passed by the old station and rested for two nights. As a result, he..."

Mu Qiqi said this with some gnashing of teeth:

"I couldn't resist him, so I had no choice but to give myself to him. But I kept thinking about going north to find my family. I ran away several times but was caught again. Later, when Qu Jingwen came, Tan Yong really got tired of me and relaxed his supervision of me."

"I was planning to escape again, but Qu Jingwen found out. She told Tan Yong and accused me of planning to have a tryst with a strange man. Tan Yongqi went crazy and beat me to death."

Mu Qiqi still has a shadow over what happened at that time:

"I clearly felt that I was dead, truly dead, but I don't know if it was God's pity that I suddenly discovered that I seemed to have a special ability called 'parasitism'."

"I was so panicked at the time, I just wanted to 'live', so I parasitized Qu Jingwen's body. As a result, I found that I could only lurk, unable to leave, and unable to control her. I endured like this for ten years."

"Later, Qu Jingwen might have been seriously injured. During her coma, I was able to control this body. Qu Jingwen seemed to have noticed this and started to fight for the initiative with me."

"I had the upper hand a while ago, but after this body had almost recovered, her consciousness also became stronger. To prevent her from succeeding, I began to hurt myself. Although it was effective, I also felt pain, and it wasn't long before she was able to take the initiative again."

"I also realized that only if her consciousness died or she was willing to obey, I would always be a parasite."

After saying this, Mu Qiqi looked at Su Tao expectantly.

Su Tao said without any expression: "I can't save you, you see I'm useless."

Mu Qiqi became excited:

"You can do it. You took Lian Sha's crystal core, right? Use her crystal core to hypnotize and brainwash Qu Jingwen. After a while, she will obey!"

If she hadn't reminded Su Tao, she would have really forgotten about it.

"Why should I help you?" she asked.

Lian Sha's Mi Yin is only valid for six days, and the crystal core will be invalid after six days.

There is no benefit for her in saving Mu Qiqi.

Mu Qiqi was stunned: "If you help me, I can do things for you, unlike Qu Jingwen who only wants to kill you."

Su Tao asked her: "Do you have any ability that is worth me saving?"

Although he is a person with superpowers, parasitism has no immediate practical effect.

Mu Qiqi remained silent.

Su Tao looked at the time. It was almost seven o'clock. Jiang Yu in the shadows also reminded her that Lin Fangzhi was on his way to find her.

Su Tao stood up and prepared to leave.

Mu Qiqi was really afraid that if she left, she would never be able to get out of Qu Jingwen's body, so she immediately shouted excitedly:

"I know Tan Yong has hidden some valuables. You'll definitely be interested! The old station has been around for so many years. It's impossible that Tan Yong only saved some federal coins. He would have snatched up valuables from the caravans passing by and hidden them away."

Su Tao didn't quite believe it.

The old site had been in her system for a long time. If there was anything good in it, she would have discovered it when she was building it.

Mu Qiqi seemed to guess what she was thinking: "It's not hidden in the old station, it's somewhere else."
