Chapter 15 The protagonists play house



[Item [Hide Aura] countdown 06:12]

Li Li had no idea what the fainted man in black robe was thinking. She put away the smile that had just appeared inadvertently and returned to her expressionless look.

After Yiming attracted attention, Li Li then looked for an opportunity to eliminate the Tiger Group's superpower from behind. This wave of cooperation was very beautiful.

"Well done." She praised, and Yiming chuckled at the praise.

He seemed to be encouraged, and his steps were a little jumpy as he walked over.

At this time they had arrived at the place where Tang was previously imprisoned.

The bronze commercial houses are divided into those that have been reserved and those that have not been reserved. They are similar to the place where Yiming was locked up before, with bronze doors.

Yiming put his hand on the door and removed it skillfully. The light from inside the house gradually expanded from the gap until it illuminated their faces.

Li Li saw Tang, the little girl whom she had only met once a few days ago.

She has black hair that falls softly to her waist. Tang is wearing a loose T-shirt with a black choker around her neck.

At this moment, she sat on the only chair in the room with her head lowered. Under the light, the shadow under her feet seemed to be only the smallest circle.

Those emerald green eyes seemed to be looking at the tips of one's feet, or they seemed to be wandering in the sky, a vast void.

This state is somewhat different from what Li Li saw in the comics.

Before she came to the comic world, the comics had depicted the conversation between Yiming and Tang when they escaped for the first time. At that time, Yiming just said that he was asked by her father to pick her up. Tang looked a little quiet at the time, but when she heard this, her eyes immediately lit up, and she cooperated very well to let Yiming take her away.

"Tang! I'm here to pick you up!" While Li Li was looking around the room, Yiming trotted in directly.

But the girl did not raise her head.

A tiny voice came out of Tang's mouth. She still looked like she didn't know what she was looking at: "No need."

The excited brown-haired boy was stunned.

"No need for that anymore," she repeated.

It seems that Yiming failed to do what he said last time, which made Tang lose confidence in him.

As expected, Li Li felt that it would not be so smooth.

She leaned against the door for a moment, crossed her arms, and said sarcastically, "Little Corgi, you've been rejected."

His head drooped and he looked extremely pitiful.

"It was my fault last time." Yiming couldn't find an excuse and didn't want to find one, so he could only say sullenly, "But now Qing Yuchen is not here, we can escape."

Tang just said, "Liar."

She didn't even glance at him from beginning to end.

Li Li, who was observing the two people from behind, was thinking.

The Jiaohuang chapter starts with Yiming's friend Yu Xiao receiving a letter and Yiming reading the letter, and now they come here to see Tang, all of which revolve around the goal of "rescuing Tang".

It can be said that not bringing Tang out of the Bronze chapter would be a bad ending. If this world is viewed entirely as a comic, then there must be traces of Tang's attitude change.

Besides, it will definitely be drawn into the comics now, so Li Li has to do something.

Li Li recalled the contents of the comic in her mind again, sorting out the clues and thinking about it.

Yu Xiao claimed that he found the letter from Tang's father in the pile of junk at the post office. The recipient was written as "Chao Xi", but for some reason it was not sent out.

There is no specific description of the letter in the comics, but the cartoonist gave a psychological description of Ikki when he was reading it.

This letter was supposed to be delivered to an organization. Tang's father mentioned his name in the letter and implicitly assumed that the person who received the letter would know who he was.

About one-third of the letter was an apology from Tang's father, who had betrayed the organization. One-third talked about his own merits, and the last third was about his daughter. He almost humbly begged the organization to send someone to rescue his daughter from the bronze hands.

Finally, he vaguely mentioned that he would pass on his supernatural powers to his daughter.

Superpowers can be acquired through blood inheritance. Direct relatives or relatives within three generations can pass on superpowers, and they can even be passed down through the original class without any loss, which is completely different from plundering.

That is to say, if the parent is C-class and passes on his supernatural powers to his child, then the child will also be C-class. This is also the reason why nobles with powerful supernatural powers have been able to stand firm. The heirs of the nobles can almost always obtain supernatural powers of A-class or even higher after taking power.

However, this kind of inheritance is not without price. The price of plunder is heavy, and blood inheritance requires the original holder of the superpower to actively sacrifice a part of himself. For example, the superpowers throughout the body are concentrated and driven into one eyeball, and then the bloodline characteristics are used to pass it on to relatives. But in the end, the eyeball will atrophy and become useless.

Both homologous plundering and bloodline inheritance have a ritual-like process. Li Li has also thought about whether natural comprehension is also required, but there are too few clues for her to deduce.

However, in the letter, Tang's father had already assumed the premise of his own death, so no matter what he sacrificed, it would not affect the outcome.

While Li Li was thinking, less than a minute had passed in the outside world, and Yiming in front was still trying to make Tang change his mind.

"I promised your father that I would take you out." Yiming said this while racking his brains, his eyes a little wandering as he spoke.

After all, he had never met Tang's father, let alone agreed to anything.

He didn't tell Tang that her father was dead.

Yiming rarely lies, but he has done so before. He is a low-level psychic from the bottom of society, and he was not a good kid before he met his adoptive father. Many of his current behaviors are because his adoptive father told him what he should and should not do, but he also thinks it is right from the bottom of his heart.

Including concealing the death of Tang's father.

When he met Tang and was asked where his father was, he decided to keep the news secret.

"You and Dad are both liars," Tang said suddenly.

The girl, who was about seven or eight years old, suddenly raised her head, and her emerald green pupils seemed to be covered with a layer of mist.

"He said he would take me to the floating city and show me the candy house when the work was over. It was a good idea," she said softly, "and then he left me here and never showed up again."

She looked at Yiming: "You said you would take me out, and the hook was agreed. Then I came back to this place."

"Liar," Tang said finally.

"I..." Yiming didn't know how to answer for a moment. Because he had to hide it from Tang, he couldn't even say "I didn't lie to you".

There was still a bloody mark on the cheek where it had been scratched by the C-rank Psychic. The little Corgi looked pitiful, as if it had been caught in a heavy rain.

It was as if the tail had dropped quietly and no longer wagging.

In this sudden silence, the black-haired young man who had been watching from the sidelines made a move.

Li suddenly put down his hand, his face still expressionless, and walked closer to the two people who were in a stalemate.

"He didn't lie to you." Li stood in front of Tang and said coldly, "It's just that he is dead."

"Li?" Yiming widened his eyes.

Before he could say anything, the black-haired young man continued, "As the recipient of supernatural power, you should have an impression of the inheritance ceremony."

Yiming pulled at the corner of Li's clothes, as if trying to stop Li from continuing.

Li just looked at him without any emotion: "If we delay any longer, none of us will be able to leave."

"But..." Yiming thought for a long time but couldn't come up with anything. Finally, he said weakly, "This is not good, brother."

Li ignored him.

At this moment, Tang raised his head and looked at Li.

She said, "Ritual? Dead?"

It seemed like something was breaking out of my mind.

Tang will never forget the day when her father said that he would finish his work and come to pick her up from the small rental house.

He talked about a lot of things and asked her where she wanted to go and where she wanted to go.

Tang, who often stayed at home alone, didn't know what was outside, so she said she wanted to go to the floating city because the kid next door had relatives in the floating city and brought a lot of candy.

That was the only new thing she had ever been exposed to, so she said she wanted it.

Her father showed a strange expression and said that he would definitely take her there and hook up with her.

The moment her little finger touched her, she suddenly felt her head getting hot.

But my father shed tears for some reason, as if he was in great pain. His face was distorted, and he cried and said, "Tang, I will definitely let you go to the floating city."

Tang was frightened and said she didn't have to go because she didn't want her father to be like this.

But her father insisted, and said to her with an unpleasant smile: It's a deal.

As a result, she was taken to this place after that, and her father never showed up again.

And in this cage-like place, she continued to live a life different from usual.

She knew no one here, but she had nowhere else to go.

Isn't this a scam? Isn't this a deal?

"But he left me behind!" The pair of emerald green eyes seemed to dispel the mist, and looked at Li stubbornly with a watery look, "He cheated on me!"

She actually didn't care where she was going or what city she was going to do. She just wanted to live with her father, that's all.

But she was left behind.

Thrown into this horrible place that's like a prison.

"Not fulfilling the agreement because you're dead isn't cheating," Li said.

The black-haired young man looked straight into her eyes, not dodging or avoiding them: "It's just too late."

Water shone in Tang's eyes, and her voice trembled a little: "Really?"

"Really." Li said.

Yiming, who was caught in the middle, noticed that there was something wrong with Li's attitude. Compared to his gentleness towards him, he was obviously much colder towards Tang.

But he believed in Li.

The secret had been revealed, and Yiming could only hold his nose and hurry to tell everything he could, including that he had received a letter asking for help, and that Tang's father had not given up on her but was just forced to do so.

"So I will really take you out. I am not lying to you..." Yiming promised after racking his brains.

"Going to the floating city?" Tang asked suddenly.

She sniffed and stared as if she didn't want to admit defeat to anyone.

Yiming was stunned for a moment: "Floating city? You can go if you want."

Then he saw the little girl who had ignored him just now jumped off the chair, her nose red, and she looked up and said, "I'll go with you."

She wanted to go to the floating city, she had to go.

Even if the father who cried so ugly is no longer by my side, even if he never breaks his promise.

She would go, just as she had agreed.

Yiming blinked his eyes first, then said happily: "Great! Now let's go!"

It took a total of four minutes to persuade Tang, and now they needed to hurry up and escape.

Yiming bent down and wanted to pick up Tang directly like last time. After all, he could run faster that way.

At this moment, the black-haired young man suddenly paused.

Li took out a candy from his windbreaker pocket and put it in Tang's palm.

It was a piece of candy wrapper shining with colorful light, like a beautiful candy like a rainbow.

After doing this, the black-haired young man walked past Yiming as if he had done nothing, turned around and walked out.

The little girl looked at the candy in her palm that seemed to glow under the light, and her green eyes seemed to be shining with the light of the candy's coating.

She couldn't remember what the candy the kids next door had looked like, she hadn't remembered it long ago.

"I said Li is not a bad person..." Yiming said, and stretched out his hand to Tang, "Tang, let's go."

The little girl carefully held the candy tightly and ran out. Then she gently grabbed the corner of the young man's windbreaker, even though her eyes were still red.

She thought that rainbow candy must be the best candy.

Yiming was stunned for a moment, then chased after him: "Wait for me!"

"Why do I feel like I have so much left over?" he muttered.
