Chapter 5
When being stared at by the blond young man's cold and half-smiling eyes, Lan Yexing felt for a moment like a cat with its fur standing on end, wanting only to run away.
【Including warm-hearted, kind and sincere】
Lan Yexing once again had deep doubts about the system's positioning of Qiao You.
With a "crash" sound.
Qiao You retracted his gaze, took a few steps forward, stood high above, poured the bottle of water directly onto Jiang Xiaozhou, then threw it away casually, and the bottle fell accurately into the trash can.
Jiang Xiaozhou, who was in a daze, coughed a few times subconsciously, and the uncomfortable expression on his face improved a lot.
Qiao You no longer paid any attention to him and walked straight to the only window.
The windows of this kind of warehouse are usually very high, but it is not a problem for Qiao You. He was about to move when his face suddenly turned cold and he looked back abruptly.
Before that, Lan Yexing had been looking in the same direction with a serious expression: he saw that the wooden shelf not far away suddenly caught fire!
His expression became colder and colder: Are there any fire-type spiritual powers among those people... and are they going to kill people just for a seat...
Entire shelves were ablaze, and eerie crackling sounds echoed throughout the space.
Before the choking smoke began to spread rapidly, Lan Yexing had reacted quickly. He opened several bottles of water and several bags of towels, soaked himself and the towels, and with his other hand, he held two bottles of water and several wet towels, covered his mouth and nose, and strode towards Jiang Xiaozhou, taking out his wet coat and covering the other's head with it.
Then he helped the other person up.
Even though his mouth and nose were covered, Lan Yexing almost fainted because of the smell of smoke and strong roses the moment he approached Jiang Xiaozhou. He coughed a few times and bit the tip of his tongue until it bled, trying to stay awake and support himself as he walked towards Qiao You.
Standing in front of Qiao You, he opened the two bottles of water neatly, and poured them over his head in front of Qiao You's surprised gaze, soaking him thoroughly from inside to outside. Then he forcefully covered his handsome face with another wet towel.
Lan Yexing's face was pale, with blood on his lips. He looked at him firmly and said, "You go out first, and then pull us up."
The fire didn't spread quickly in the enclosed space with insufficient oxygen, but after all, an entire rack suddenly caught fire. At this time, the flames had spread to another rack, and thick black smoke was rushing towards them.
There seemed to be faint voices and alarm sounds outside the door, but the flames had already spread to the door, so it was obviously safer next to the window.
There were water droplets on Qiao You's golden hair and cold pale face. He looked at the boy for a moment, nodded indifferently, then jumped up. After reaching the windowsill, the beautiful and dangerous muscles in his arms tensed, and he used the force to move his body upwards, stepped on the wall again, and landed neatly on the windowsill.
Throughout the whole process, he was as elegant and dangerous as a powerful leopard.
On the narrow windowsill, Qiao You bent his elbows and, with a bang, opened the window that was tightly closed due to the air pressure difference.
The wind outside rushed in wildly, and the fire in the warehouse began to burn rapidly due to the influx of oxygen. The shelves collapsed and burned with crackling sounds, and the fire almost filled the entire warehouse.
A cordon has been set up outside the warehouse, and the firefighters who just arrived have begun to put out the fire and carry out rescue operations. There are also many onlookers outside the cordon and school staff who have rushed over.
But it’s almost too late…
Amid the noisy and chaotic voices, Qiao You's golden hair fluttered in the wind. He frowned slightly, half of his body leaned into the warehouse, leaned down and stretched out his strong arms, and said in a deep voice: "Hurry up, I'll pull you up."
Lan Yexing simply let go of the wet towel on his mouth and nose. He grabbed Jiang Xiaozhou's collar tightly, his pale eyes glowing red in the firelight, and his voice was cold and fast: "Stay awake."
"We all have to live. So do what I tell you. No questions, no opinions."
"Step on my hand and reach Qiao You, do you hear me?"
Jiang Xiaozhou no longer had the strength to jump up, and Lan Yexing could not think of any other solution.
He half-knelt down, put his hands together, pretending to lift someone up, and shouted sternly, "Come up quickly!"
Jiang Xiaozhou, who was in the susceptible period, bit his lips hard, his face full of snot and tears. He looked at Lan Yexing deeply, then took weak steps and stepped on Lan Yexing's palm.
Lan Yexing bit his lip tightly and stood up, propping the other person up a little. The fire that had already burned behind him made his back hot, and the nearby storage rack fell towards him. Lan Yexing's eyes turned cold, and he used all his strength to push the man up -
Suddenly, Qiao You had pulled Jiang Xiaozhou up, and the next moment he handed him over to the firefighters who had come up from the ladder.
Then he immediately looked at the young man who was almost engulfed by the flames. His green eyes were dim and his voice was frighteningly low for the first time: "Lan Yexing, come quickly."
Lan Yexing's lips were bleeding from biting. His shoulder had just been hit by a fallen, burning shelf, and he had inhaled a few mouthfuls of the choking black smoke. Coupled with the allergic symptoms induced by pheromones, he was almost unable to stand.
The roots of his teeth exerted force fiercely, biting deeper into the cut on his lip. Blood flowed along the edge of his lips. Stimulated by the pain, Lan Yexing looked at the strong hand and the blurry face above him, and jumped suddenly with his last bit of strength.
A large hand, full of security, firmly grasped his wrist, and his body instantly rose up. The next moment, a strong arm covered with muscles tightly grasped his waist.
…
The cloud ladder slowly descended, and a cool breeze brushed across his forehead. Lan Yexing's heart, which had been beating too fast due to the crisis, finally found a place to rest. His head completely limply fell into the slightly cool crook of his neck. Before he completely passed out, he smelled the cool scent of lime at the tip of his nose.
Qiao You, who had already stepped on the ground, lowered his eyes to look at him, his eyebrows and eyes were covered by his golden hair, and his expression was gloomy.
Not far away, an ambulance had already stopped there. The doctor who arrived had already injected Jiang Xiaozhou with an inhibitor and was conducting basic examinations.
…
"Xiaoxing!"
The omega with gray curly hair and blue eyes crossed the cordon and strode here. Li Long still followed him silently.
When he saw Qiao You, there was a flash of surprise in his eyes. Then he saw Lan Yexing, who was in the other's arms with his eyes closed, in a dishevel and with blood on his lips. Janes' pupils shrank, and he clenched his hands hanging under his body for a moment and then released them.
He just stared at Lan Yexing without paying any attention to anyone else. His usually sweet voice was a little hoarse for no reason: "Is he okay?"
Qiao You looked at him coldly without answering. Li Long frowned slightly, exuding some terrifying pressure from an alpha. Qiao You was not affected at all. He didn't even look at him, but just held the boy in his arms steadily and walked towards the ambulance not far away.
Janes looked at their backs, his expression unclear.
…
The medical school of Xingdu University was established only a few years ago and is not very well-known, but there is a very famous private hospital nearby.
When Lan Yexing slowly woke up in the single room, he happened to see the doctor lifting his eyelids for examination.
Lan Yexing's voice was a little hoarse: "Am I okay?"
The beta female doctor wore a pair of silver-framed glasses and had a cool temperament: "I'm lucky, I'm fine. The part of my back that was hit was fortunately only slightly bruised without burns or bone fractures. There are no problems with my lungs, respiratory tract, or eyes."
It's something that the school doctor can handle.
Doctor: "Your pheromone allergy is very rare, but no sequelae have been found so far."
Lan Yexing nodded and thanked him earnestly, then half sat up: "Excuse me, are the police here? When do I give my statement?" He was almost killed by Yuan Ye, and he would never let him go.
The female doctor smiled and said, "I'm afraid your school's leaders are still discussing whether to call the police and what the reason is."
Although the fire that occurred in the university caused a lot of noise, it might be impossible to suppress it.
The various forces were still in the game, and she hadn't even received any notification that anyone wanted to meet this young man.
Lan Yexing paused and said "ah" indifferently: The so-called aristocratic college.
He sat down on the edge of the bed and continued to put on his shoes smoothly: if the school didn't call the police, then he would do it.
If it wasn't useful, he would do whatever it took to make it useful.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then the door of the ward was opened from the outside.
The blond young man came in with a warm and relaxed smile, bringing people in police uniforms. He pointed at Lan Yexing and said, "Officer, in addition to the omega you just saw, this is the second victim."
At this moment, he was like the most sincere, righteous and innocent student, and he said with deep sorrow: "This premeditated arson and murder case not only caused us physical harm and severe psychological trauma, but also seriously endangered public safety. Please bring the criminals to justice and restore justice and fairness to this society."
As he said this, he looked at Lan Yexing, frowning slightly with distress and sadness: "Look, my junior was so scared that he had to get out of bed and hide just by hearing the sound of the door opening."
The female doctor pushed her glasses and said nothing.
Lan Yexing, who hadn't reacted yet, looked at Qiao You in a daze. He seemed to be really worried about him from the bottom of his heart, and stood there with his mouth slightly open: "..."
This guy is such a good actor...if you don't know them, you would think they know each other very well!
The police officer pinched his brows and strode towards Lan Yexing: He knew that this was not an easy case to investigate smoothly, but there was something he could do now, which was to collect testimony and evidence impartially.
…
After taking the statement, Qiao You followed the police and left. The female doctor looked at the blond young man's back thoughtfully, and then said to the stunned Lan Yexing: "It should be fine for you. You can sleep here peacefully for one night and go back to school tomorrow."
After all, someone more powerful than the big shot was involved, and he would not let him go. The school and the big shot behind the arsonist did not even have time to control Lan Yexing's actions.
Lan Yexing came back to his senses and smiled gently at the female doctor: "Thank you, but no, I still have things to do today."
After saying that, he got out of bed and went to go through the discharge procedures.
"Please wait a moment," the female doctor who had a good impression of Lan Yexing stopped him and extended her hand to him: "My name is Xi Jing, and I'm the emergency doctor here."
As she spoke, she handed him a business card and said, "There are several teachers and researchers in your school's medical school who are my juniors. They are from the team that your school just poached from half a year ago. Here is the contact information of the person in charge."
"They are working on a project related to pheromones and mental power, which may be helpful in treating your pheromone allergy. If you want treatment, you can contact them at any time."
"Of course," she smiled. "Like I said, your allergy is rare and might be helpful to their research."
Lan Yexing took it, thanked him earnestly, and left the ward.
…
The female doctor only prescribed medicine to treat the bruises for Lan Yexing. After taking the medicine, Lan Yexing quickly completed the discharge procedures.
After leaving the hospital, he stood under the dim street lights on the side of the road and stretched his body.
There seems to be no convenient online software in this world, and you can only take a taxi randomly.
The dial on the wrist emitted a cold light, and the voice was as mechanical and indifferent as before: [Sorry, I couldn't help you. ] It has too many flaws. Not only is a lot of data missing, but the understanding of human malice is also seriously insufficient, which puts the host in crisis.
Lan Yexing yawned casually, and a warm smile appeared on his face: "When the shelf falls down, please help me block it." The electric shock sound he heard at that time should not be an illusion.
Even though he didn't block all of it, it at least lessened his injuries.
Lan Yexing: "Thank you, comrade."
System: [...] For the first time, it subjectively questioned: What should I say at this time?
After a moment of silence, the system asked: [Where are you going, host? ]
Lan Yexing smiled and said, "Go home and feed the cat." He had promised the fur ball that he would go back once a day.
