Chapter 15
Ji Yile screamed in panic, and Teng took a slow look and knew what it was. It was the strange eyeball that was often fed with all kinds of fresh meat downstairs.
It’s not quite right to call it an eyeball, because that is a weird prop created by Haogui, the [Curious Weird Eye].
As for the feel, it should be similar to other strange eyeballs, sticky and able to move.
He looked up at Ji Yile miserably, and then asked with concern, "Brother, are you okay?"
Ji Yile gasped, then shook his head and said with lingering fear, "It's okay."
It's okay. It's impossible to be okay.
Who would believe that the eyeballs can move and shed tears if I told them otherwise?
Although Ji Yile has accepted that this is a world full of weirdness, it is exactly the same as it was after the catastrophe and before the country recovered its economy.
However, it is also very frustrating when things that I hardly paid attention to in my daily life appear one after another.
When he was young, and had seen strange things since he was a kid, his family would give him reasonable explanations. Although he had some misunderstandings about the types of people, but...
There is no such direct touch and face!
Ji Yile touched his little heart and quickly digested the fear just now.
"That's your origin, right? Can you absorb it again?" Seeing that Teng Manman was still holding the wood, Ji Yile became a little anxious.
Teng slowly rubbed the wood against his face, "Not yet, my vitality is seriously damaged, I need to absorb it slowly."
Ji Yile didn't care much about this kind of thing, and then said, "Why don't you go back with us first. The prisoner has escaped, and we will arrest him later, but your home is not safe now. What's more, you have to record your statement for us."
Teng Manman was also afraid that the scavengers would make a comeback, so he immediately nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I'll listen to my brother."
Ji Yile looked at Teng Manman who looked like a child, and then realized clearly that the child in front of him was older than him. When he heard him calling him "brother" all the time, he felt a little weird.
After wiping his face, Ji Yile stopped thinking about it.
Lin Qiaoqiao had already dealt with her affairs. After knowing Teng Manman's situation, she shrugged and said, "Just take him with you."
Teng Manman couldn't stand up for a while, so Ji Yile could only pick him up, help him pack some things and leave.
Teng slowly hugged Ji Yile's neck and buried his head in his shoulder, feeling a little complicated.
In its perception, humans are not good people.
But now, it has been saved by humans.
Teng sniffed slowly, leaned on Ji Yile's shoulder, and quietly acted as a mascot.
After the scavengers left, the building returned to normal. Other residents were worried about Teng Manman and were afraid that the scavengers had not really left and were still lingering downstairs.
Ji Yile held Teng Manman in his arms and took the elevator back to the first floor with Lin Qiaoqiao.
When the ghosts saw Ji Yile coming out, they immediately surrounded him.
After confirming that Teng Manman was still alive, the ghosts breathed a sigh of relief, and then became very concerned about the situation of the scavengers.
Lin Qiaoqiao sneered, "Don't worry, it has already escaped. But I don't know if it will come back."
Lan Xin also came over at this time. He brought Zhong Wenxu with him and walked over calmly.
"What's going on now?"
Ji Yile held Teng Manman in one hand and dragged the scavenger's sack in the other, then said to Lan Xin, "The strange props of the killed residents are all in the sack." He looked at Teng Manman and then said, "This is the victim."
Lan Xin nodded, then signaled Zhong Wenxu and Lin Qiaoqiao to go up again.
"Take it back to the department first, and we'll come back after we finish cleaning up."
After Ji Yile brought Teng slowly back to the office, he ordered him a cup of hot milk tea. Although he didn't know if plants could drink this kind of thing, seeing Teng slowly enjoying it, it shouldn't be a problem.
Then, he received a call from the headquarters.
"Brother Xin is still at the scene."
Ji Yile briefly described Teng Manman's situation, and the other party hesitated for a moment, "Okay, I understand. You've worked hard!"
The voice was very nice and sounded very young. But this was the director-general, and Ji Yile was very nervous.
The other party chuckled, "You are the new colleague."
Ji Yile didn't expect that the director general would know a small figure like him, and he was a little flattered.
"Yes, I have just been here."
The director general didn't say much, just gave a few words of encouragement.
After hanging up the phone, Ji Yile breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he subconsciously glanced at Teng Manman who was sitting in his seat. Ji Yile looked at her suspiciously, because Teng Manman was clearly enjoying the milk tea before, but now she was hugging herself and shivering.
Ji Yile asked nervously, "What's wrong?"
Fuji slowly collapsed, and he said defensively, "Wuwuwu!!! Brother! I'm scared!"
Then, he continued to talk to himself: "I will never make a mistake again! I will do it seriously in the future!"
"Oooh!! Brother, you must not let that violent maniac catch me!"
Seeing Ji Yile coming over, Teng Manman quickly hugged Ji Yile's arm and cried.
Encountering the scavengers was already very despairing for Gui, and now
Hear the voice of the terrifying human who turned Gui into ashes.
Ji Yile paused, then coughed.
He really didn't expect that Teng Manman would be so afraid of the Director General. He had only heard his voice, and the Director General had a good reputation. He was an idol and hero in everyone's mind.
never mind……
This is probably because of different species and different aesthetics, so there is a generation gap.
Ji Yile touched Teng Manman's head perfunctorily to comfort him, "Don't be afraid, you haven't done anything wrong now. As long as you cooperate, we won't arrest you."
Teng gradually felt that what Ji Yile said was not credible at all, because he could feel that the terrible human was still here.
Ji Yile picked up the milk tea that Teng Manman had placed on the table and stuffed it back into Teng Manman's mouth. "Drink it quickly, don't think too much. You are weird, don't be so cowardly."
To be honest, if he hadn't read the rumors about the previous catastrophe and heard from Zhong Wenxu and others, he wouldn't have believed how scary the weirdness was.
He was a man living in a new era and had never seen a disaster scene. In addition, the authorities were deliberately downplaying the situation, so apart from some areas being slightly damaged, he really didn't feel any weird fear.
Plus, the weird things he had seen and encountered at work were really not scary!
Ji Yile looked at Teng Manman in front of him and fell silent again.
Why would Guiyi be scared when hearing a voice? The director-general is a million miles away from them, what is there to be afraid of?
Then, Ji Yile asked, "Have you met the Director General before?"
Fuji slowly and frantically shook his head, "How is that possible? Can I still be alive if I see it?"
Ji Yile was puzzled, "You haven't seen it before, why are you so scared?"
"..." Teng looked at Ji Yile slowly and indescribably. Does this guy really not understand or is he just pretending? Who wouldn't be afraid of someone with such a destructive talent?
Watching Teng gradually become alert about his surroundings and constantly trying to get close to him, Ji Yile also began to be affected.
He stood in front of his seat in the department. Apart from the rustling sound of the vines, it was very quiet. In fact, he could only hear the sound of his computer starting up.
It was getting colder and colder on his back. Ji Yile kept explaining to himself that it was because the air conditioning was too low, but for some reason, he began to feel a breeze blowing across his neck.
Slowly, he felt someone watching him from the side.
Looking over inconspicuously, Ji Yile only saw a badge placed on Lin Qiaoqiao's desk next to the passage.
That's just the badge of the Security Bureau...
Ji Yile wiped his face and shook his head. What could the badge see? There couldn't be any camera.
Fortunately, when the two were preparing to gather together for warmth, Lan Xin and the others came back.
Ji Yile breathed a sigh of relief. This kind of self-suggestive thinking should not occur.
He looked down at Teng Manman who had an innocent expression, and handed him over decisively.
Yan Tingyu was sitting in a huge room. There were flowers on his desk, as well as a vine branch that looked very similar to a vine. Behind him hung several exquisite paintings. He was drinking hot tea elegantly.
On the computer screen was a photo of a young man.
In the forest, a young man carrying a schoolbag and wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt looked back and smiled brightly.
The eyes are clearly black and white, and they are as charming as starlight.
Next to the picture, there is an introduction to this young man, which even clearly states where he went to kindergarten.
This young man is Ji Yile.
Yan Tingyu controlled the mouse to scroll through Ji Yile's introduction, then muttered to himself, "In the blink of an eye, he's already at work."
Then he coughed rapidly until he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The secretary hurriedly approached, took out a handkerchief and gave it to Yan Tingyu, saying worriedly, "Director..."
Yan Tingyu raised his hand to stop him, then shook his head, "It's okay."
After breathing smoothly, Yan Tingyu took another look at the photo on the screen, and then said softly, "Find someone to find the whereabouts of the scavenger. It would be best if we can get rid of it."
The secretary quickly arranged what Yan Tingyu had asked.
After the secretary left, Yan Tingyu sighed, "It's been so many years, maybe you don't remember me anymore."
Lan Xin was very nervous after the director general called her. Even though Ji Yile repeatedly emphasized that the director general didn't say anything, Lan Xin still looked nervous.
Finally, Lan Xin said to Ji Yile in a nagging tone: "You don't understand. The director-general is a strange person. Every time he asks about something, it becomes very troublesome."
Ji Yile paused, then looked at Lan Xin. For such a thing, it is better to believe it than not to believe it. Then, Ji Yile also became a little worried, "What should we do, Brother Xin? Is the Director General here to ask about Man Man's matter?"
He later added, "I was really scared to death by him just now!"
Lan Xin thought about it, then ruffled her hair.
"It's just a weird vine, what harm can it do! I always feel that something troublesome is coming!"
The badge on Lin Qiaoqiao's desk flashed a light, but the two people in the office didn't notice it at all.
Yan Tingyu drank his tea again and smiled slightly.
