When a policeman ran to buy clothes for Shen Cheng, Shen Cheng naturally took over the policeman's position.
It was a dark and windy night. In front of a pitch-black forest, a man with half of his body covered in blood stood at the entrance... If a normal person didn't have a hole in his brain, he wouldn't go near this place, right?
Shen Cheng could even see another policeman beside him shivering from time to time, not sure if it was because of the cold...
After thinking about it, Shen Cheng took out his mobile phone, found Yu Lan in the address book and dialed her.
From time to time, the phone was connected, and Yu Lan's voice came: "Have you found Ye Xi's location?"
"...Now, she is by my side." While speaking, Shen Cheng turned his eyes to glance at Ye Xi.
Ye Xi has been silent ever since she and Shen Cheng walked out of the forest, and no one knows what she is thinking.
"Is that so? You've worked so hard." Yu Lan's happy laughter came from the other end of the phone, and then she asked, "How are those Forsaken around Ye Xi...?"
"No one survived." Shen Cheng closed his eyes and said lightly.
"..." The other end of the phone fell into silence for a while, and then Yu Lan's bitter voice came: "This shouldn't be your style... Where are you now? I'll send someone to clean up the mess for you. For the next period of time... just have a good rest."
"Yeah, okay." After nodding and telling Yu Lan about his current location, Shen Cheng hung up the phone.
"The way the Institute of Biological Sciences trains you is too gentle. With your ability, you will have to go through these things sooner or later." Ye Xi spoke lightly after Shen Cheng put down his phone.
“…”
Shen Cheng just remained silent and did not answer.
From time to time, the policeman came back with the newly bought clothes. Shen Cheng took the clothes, thanked him, turned around and went into the forest again.
After finding a good position, Shen Cheng was about to take off his clothes when he suddenly heard a noise behind him. He turned around and saw Ye Xi following behind her naturally.
The corner of Shen Cheng's mouth twitched slightly: "Why did you follow me?"
Ye Xi chuckled: "Keep an eye on me, but this is your mission."
"Then...then turn around, I want to change clothes." Chen Cheng froze for a moment, waved his hand, and signaled Ye Xi to turn around.
"When I showed you my memory just now, didn't you also see that I was not wearing any clothes?" Ye Xi's teasing smile made Shen Cheng look embarrassed, but Ye Xi was just teasing and turned around honestly in the end.
After changing their clothes, Chen Cheng and Ye Xi walked out of the forest. After nodding and thanking the policeman who helped them buy clothes, they walked towards the port.
…
Although it was dark, it was not too late due to the season. Neon lights were flashing at the port, and there were still dense crowds of people passing by.
Arriving in front of his parked car, Shen Cheng opened the door and let Ye Xi sit in the back first. When Shen Cheng closed the door and was about to open the door next to the driver's seat, suddenly, Shen Cheng raised his head as if he had discovered something.
A shifty-looking man was seen hiding in a busy port. He aimed at a man's pocket and swiftly reached into it. The next moment, he took out a wallet. His movements were smooth and seamless, and he was obviously a habitual criminal.
The swift and subtle movements of this shifty-looking man naturally did not attract anyone's attention in the crowded crowd.
Seeing the shifty man succeed and get out of the crowd, and sneak into a secluded alley on the side, Shen Cheng put on a faint smile and followed him.
"Alas..." Ye Xi, sitting in the car, watched Chen Cheng's figure go away, then looked at the car door next to him that was not locked, and sighed: "Are you really not afraid that I will run away, or... do you trust me too much?"
In a remote alley, a shifty-looking man with a lewd smile came up to a burly man and handed him the wallet he had just stolen. "Boss, look, I got another one!"
The burly man took the wallet, opened it and took a look at the spoils inside, then reached out and tapped the shifty-looking man on the head: "What's wrong with you today, kid? Is this all you stole?!"
The shifty-eyed man chuckled twice. "It's windy today, Boss. How about we just call it a day? Let's stop now. These two wallets are enough for us to have a good meal."
"No!" The burly man frowned and shook his head, pointing outside the alley and said, "Go steal another one for me today!"
"Okay... okay." The man with shifty eyes didn't dare to contradict. Upon hearing that, he turned around and walked out of the alley.
When he reached the alley entrance, the man with shifty eyes felt a shadow suddenly appear in front of him. He didn't react in time and bumped into it. He staggered back two steps and then looked up to see a man with a faint smile standing at the alley entrance.
Seeing that the man was gentle and elegant, and looked harmless, the man with shifty eyes looked stern: "Boy, did you hear everything? I advise you not to tell anyone, otherwise..."
"How come there are people like this everywhere..." Chen Cheng sighed silently, pushed the man in front of him aside and walked straight towards the burly man in the alley, saying lightly: "Where's your wallet? Hand it over."
The man with shifty eyes stretched out his hand to push, but found that he was pushing against a solid wall, and was knocked to the ground by Shen Cheng. Then he looked at Shen Cheng with a dull expression as he walked towards the burly man.
"Wallet?" The burly man raised his eyebrows and laughed. "You asked me for my wallet, and I tell you, once I get it, it's mine. But you, kid, dare to talk to me like that? Do you know who I am? I'm...Brother! I was wrong!"
As the muzzle of a gun was pressed against his forehead, the burly man's smile immediately froze. He quickly raised his hand and revealed a tearful smile: "Brother, put the gun down first. I was just bragging to you, don't look at me like this, I'm actually nothing, brother, there's no need to pull out a gun to deal with me..."
Chen Cheng still looked at the burly man in front of him with a faint smile on his face, with no intention of putting down the pistol in his hand: "Hand over your wallet first."
"Okay... okay!" The burly man quickly took out two wallets from his pocket and handed them to Shen Cheng.
"Just these two?" Shen Cheng was a little confused.
"Just...just these two!" The burly man felt that he couldn't speak clearly.
Seeing that the burly man was not lying, Shen Cheng shook his head and said, "You two are so useless..."
The burly man: "..."
