Chapter 12 Chapter 12 (Catching Bugs) The dinner party that day was uneventful...
The dinner that day was uneventful. Ren Xiaoyue didn't pay special attention to whether there were villains around them. In fact, she didn't need to pay special attention. Three days after the dinner, Ren Xiaoyue saw these words in the comic, and also saw the figure of the villain Li Hua.
There is a chicken soup saying that goes, the biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans can use tools. Ren Xiaoyue thought after turning the last page of the comic. All that's left is to wait for the plot to develop.
The time in the comic t jumps, but the time of Ren Xiaoyue as a comic character does not jump. Even though she was looking forward to the next plot, she couldn't get there in the blink of an eye.
Ren Xiaoyue goes to work normally, reads normally, has an ordinary understanding of the world, and has ordinary relationships with the characters in the plot.
When she was putting the finished book back into the bookshelf in the school library and taking out a new book, she felt a familiar breath approaching from behind. Ren Xiaoyue turned around calmly, and when she saw the kind old man, she let go of his hand in surprise.
The book did not fall to the ground. The old man - the principal bent down and took the book in one hand.
"Haha, are you so surprised to see me?" The principal handed the book to Ren Xiaoyue like an approachable old man, "You have to pay for this book if it's broken."
"Principal... I just didn't expect to meet you again. I didn't recognize you last time. You..." Ren Xiaoyue acted at a loss and took the book with both hands.
The principal didn't react to her stuttering. He just cheerfully continued her conversation: "Don't be so nervous. That was many years ago. I'm just an ordinary old man now. Just treat me like you did last time."
"It's not convenient to talk here. Would you like to walk with me, an old man?" He waved his hand.
I don't believe you. Ren Xiaoyue complained in her heart. You are one of the founders of this country. You are committed to changing the relationship between superpowers and ordinary people and promoting the superpower law. Now you are a level 9 superpower who can kill a child with one punch. Only a fool would believe that you are just an ordinary old man.
No matter how she complained in her heart, she still had to act. Ren Xiaoyue acted as if she had never met such a big shot before and couldn't help getting excited, but she suppressed her excitement because of what the other party said, and talked in a low voice with the principal as they walked. She stopped reading and followed the principal out of the library.
The principal chatted with Ren Xiaoyue all the way, telling a joke from time to time, and walked back to the teaching building. He thanked Ren Xiaoyue in a friendly manner for chatting with him, an old man with nothing to do, and then said goodbye to Ren Xiaoyue. Ren Xiaoyue remained faintly excited and returned to the office with the book in her hands.
It wasn't until she sat back at her desk that she changed her expression.
After these two attempts, the principal probably won't doubt her in the short term. Ren Xiaoyue put the book in the drawer and picked up the pen to think. So why should we suspect her? She has clearly already led the difficult-to-deal-with flaws to the organization.
After that, Ren Xiaoyue did not "accidentally" meet the principal again. After dealing with the principal's temptation, Ren Xiaoyue encountered another incident. Berend, who learned that she had invited Bertram to dinner, had a subtle conflict with her. In order to set up the persona well, she naturally took some time out and invited Berend, Gretel and Berend's teammates to dinner.
Of course, they are a restaurant.
The lively party ended, the moon was hanging high in the sky, and Gretel volunteered to take her home.
After persuading Berend, who also wanted to send Ren Xiaoyue away, they walked on the asphalt road and chatted for a while about all sorts of things. There was only one street left to walk back to Ren Xiaoyue's house. Under the bright moonlight, Gretel coughed twice and said awkwardly, "Um... I have a question for you."
"What's wrong?" Ren Xiaoyue tucked her scattered hair behind her ears and joked, "It's rare to see Teacher Gretel looking so hesitant."
Ren Xiaoyue's words made Gretel retreat a little. He looked around and found that there were few people on this road. They walked forward for nearly a hundred meters, and Gretel finally made up her mind. She took a breath, closed her eyes, and said loudly: "Can you teach me how to get along well with Zhe?"
Ren Xiaoyue: “?”
Ren Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, and the clear laughter echoed throughout the street.
As she laughed, she thought of her own personality and started coughing again.
She was dying of laughter. Gretel was such a funny guy.
"So this is what Teacher Gretel wanted to tell me?" She took out the thermos cup in her bag, drank some water, smoothed her chest, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and asked.
"Is it so funny?" Gretel blushed. "I just can't stand that guy continuing to play badly. I want him to work harder."
Ren Xiaoyue knew that Gretel was very concerned about his reputation, and he was different from Berend. Ren Xiaoyue was not his teacher and did not have the pressure of an elder. If she continued to tease him at this time, the conversation might end in failure.
So Ren Xiaoyue shook her head and quickly denied it: "No, no, I just didn't expect Teacher Gretel to ask me."
She smoothly shifted the topic to Zhe and began discussing how to make friends with Zhe. Gretel also put aside the embarrassment just now and continued speaking along the lines of Ren Xiaoyue.
Only when she reached the door of Ren Xiaoyue's house did Gretel stop with a feeling of unfulfilled desire. He frowned and asked abruptly: "Is there anyone else in your family?"
Ren Xiaoyue blinked in surprise as she walked towards her home, and asked, "There are indeed a few relatives who have come to stay here for a short period of time recently. How did Teacher Gretel know about this?"
"Do you have any relatives here?"
Gretel coughed and changed the subject abruptly.
His eyes wandered around, thinking that he couldn't say that he sensed some unfamiliar auras nearby and thought that a thief had entered Xiaoyue's house.
How embarrassing it is to mistake someone else's relative for a thief.
"Well, I came here to seek refuge with them." Ren Xiaoyue opened the gate of her own yard, and the iron gate made a loud noise.
"What's wrong? As a powerful and awesome level 6 psychic, has Teacher Gretel discovered anything different?" Ren Xiaoyue walked into the front yard and said with a smile, with obvious teasing in her tone.
Gretel couldn't stand this kind of teasing. He said perfunctorily that it was nothing and said goodbye to Ren Xiaoyue. The two parted here, Ren Xiaoyue walked in and Gretel walked out.
At the same time, the kidnappers who were ambushing in Ren Xiaoyue's house looked at each other, their hearts full of doubts.
The house was empty when they arrived. The woman had relatives who were staying there for a short time. How come they didn't see them? Forget it, never mind, let’s continue with the plan first!
They are like any other worker who just lives from day to day. As long as the problem does not arise on their side in the end, they have no intention of investigating further. But they also heard what Ren Xiaoyue said, and knew that there was a level 6 psychic named Gretel outside, so they did not dare to act rashly for a while.
They gestured to wait until the man leaves before taking action.
-
After walking for a while, Gretel stopped and looked back at Ren Xiaoyue's villa. He saw the lights on in Ren Xiaoyue's house and saw Ren Xiaoyue walking around the house. He stayed there for about fifteen minutes, and the projection of Ren Xiaoyue on the curtains remained normal.
It seems that he was overthinking it. When did he pick up Zhe's bad habits? Gretel put her hands in her pockets awkwardly and turned away in a pretentious manner.
Shortly after Gretel left, in the lighted living room, Ren Xiaoyue put down the kettle and turned her body to the angle where she would be most vulnerable to a surprise attack.
There was a sound of wind behind her. After feeling a slight pain in her neck, Ren Xiaoyue fell to the ground without any resistance.
How come Lihua himself was involved in kidnapping Gretel, but only low-level psychics were used to kidnap her? If she hadn't covered for them, all of them would have been killed by Gretel. Lying down in her own villa, Ren Xiaoyue pretended to be unconscious and thought to herself.
Then again, wasn't it agreed to kidnap Gretel? Why did it change to kidnapping her? The organization doesn’t have enough funds, right?
The kidnappers, who were almost caught in one fell swoop, lifted Ren Xiaoyue up without noticing, and prepared to send her to the destination specified by their superiors.
Ren Xiaoyue closed her eyes and cooperated to relax her body, pretending to be an unconscious person. The kidnappers pretended to be employees of a moving company, put her in a box and took her away through the back door. The truck rumbled away, raising a cloud of dust.
The lights were still on in the empty villa. Its owner's disappearance might be discovered by a nearby homeless person a few days later, or by colleagues when they hadn't seen the owner for a long time.
At this time, Luze and Asther were saying goodbye in front of the dormitory, Bertram finished reading a book at home, and Berend had just arrived home. Everything seemed peaceful and beautiful.
[What the hell?] ? ? The teacher was kidnapped like this? ? 】
[Where is the treasure? Help, help quickly]
Gretel didn't notice anything wrong? Level 6 Psychic is just like this】
[WOC Lihua is obviously not a good person, I hope nothing will happen to the teacher]
[Wuwuwu wife, my wife, Lihua you’d better not touch my wife, or I will make you pay]
[You can't blame Gretel. Xiaoyue herself said that there was someone in her family, so Gretel was misled.]
[Yes, where are the teacher’s relatives?] ? The comics don’t mention this at all, could something have happened? 】
[My weak and beautiful wife, the teacher has so many scenes in the previous part, and there are still some foreshadowings that have not been resolved. The summer thief will definitely not kill her, right? 】
[You guys said the same thing before, but the bastard said he would use a knife...]
Ren Xiaoyue was temporarily unable to feel the widespread grief from the barrage of comments. She lay in the car for more than an hour and was finally taken to her destination. She was locked up in a basement that was not very damp but very cold, with the only things she could sit on being the hard bed board and the dirty floor.
There was nothing in the basement to keep her warm, though she didn't need it. Ren Xiaoyue was left here alone and went hungry for a day before she saw Li Hua.
At that time, Ren Xiaoyue was pretending to be weak and curled up on the bed. There was a camera in the basement, so she could only transform herself into an actor and act for two days. While she was counting sheep with her eyes closed, Lihua came in.
Lihua does disgusting things, but he looks quite decent. He has a square face, bright eyes, thick eyebrows with upturned ends, and looks very righteous. He was dressed in formal attire with no organization logo on his clothes.
Ren Xiaoyue estimated that with the weak persona she pretended to be, she should now raise her head half-deadly and speak in a weak voice. She thought so and did so.
"Why...why did you kidnap me?" Ren Xiaoyue asked.
The basement was pitch black, with only the poorly lit light above head barely working. Lihua's decent face looked much more gloomy under the light. With a subtle attitude of victory, he walked up to Ren Xiaoyue, and like most villains who like to explain, he began to explain to Ren Xiaoyue.
He simply mentioned that it was because Zhe had wronged him in the past that he kidnapped Ren Xiaoyue. His words implied that the reason Ren Xiaoyue encountered such a thing was because of Zhe. Seeing how confident he was, Ren Xiaoyue really wanted to say to him: It’s okay to deceive your brothers, but don’t deceive yourself.
Due to her character setting, Ren Xiaoyue could only pretend to be panicked and confused, shrinking to the innermost part of the iron bed, with her back against the wall, as if trying to stay away from this psychopath.
Lihua chattered on for about ten minutes, his expression changing from ferocious to calm, as if he had released a lot of his inner depression. Finally, he said in a pretentious manner: "It hurts to see such a beautiful person like Miss Xiaoyue suffer. Unfortunately, because of Zhe, you can only suffer a little more."
He suddenly clamped Ren Xiaoyue's arm, raised his hand, and condensed a small knife in his hand, ready to swing down.
Ren Xiaoyue was silent.
