Chapter 092 Chapter 92
If Xiao Li Zhou is willing to cooperate, escaping will of course be much easier.
He forcibly destroyed the mechanism on the combat suit.
Xia Meng was worried that there might be some tracking device on the clothes, so she simply took them off.
The only thing left on his body was a pair of black autumn clothes.
It's already November, and no matter how pleasant the weather is here, the temperature is obviously not suitable for such clothing.
Xiao Li Zhou took off his coat and put it on her.
Xia Meng blocked it and said, "I don't need it."
Her eyes fell on his thin body. Once he took off his coat, he was only wearing a small sleeveless vest.
Xia Meng really couldn't do such a thing as asking a ten-year-old child to take off his clothes and put them on her.
She pushed her coat back and said, "Put it on yourself, little kid. Don't get sick from the cold."
Little Li Zhou looked at her inexplicably and asked, "Aren't you a child yourself?"
Having said that, he put his clothes over her again without giving her any room to refuse, wrapping her up tightly.
The inside of the coat was warm with his body temperature.
Xia Meng still felt that this was not a good thing.
She is an adult in her twenties, and the way she did this seemed like she was taking advantage of a child.
But when I looked up at little Li Zhou, I could vaguely see the outline of his grown-up self on his little face.
In those little eyes, one can even see the gentleness and determination that he often had when he grew up.
never mind.
Why should I be humble to him, an S-rank sentinel?
With his physical condition, he would be fine even if he was thrown into the North Pole now.
She loosened her hand, put her arms through the sleeves, and simply tightened the collar.
Now is not the time to worry about clothes.
The most urgent thing right now is to escape from those people.
Xia Meng could guess that those people's target must be Li Zhou.
The first step is to sever all his ties, and the second step is naturally to take him away and take him to an orphanage.
She said nothing would allow them to succeed.
Xia Meng took a deep breath, telling herself not to panic. She held Li Zhou's hand and said, "Someone wants to arrest you, so we have to leave now. The handcuffs I just took off... I guess they'll follow after us. We don't have time—"
As she said this, she was about to pull him to continue running.
But Xiao Li Zhou understood what she meant and suddenly said, "If you don't want them to find you, I actually have a way."
Xia Meng was puzzled: "What method?"
Xiao Li Zhou said, "I'm S-rank, ordinary sentries can't find me."
After he said that, Xia Meng immediately remembered.
Yes, she had seen it in some information when she first entered the Black Tower.
The higher the sentinel's level, the sharper its perception of mental power.
High-level sentinels can easily sense the presence of nearby sentinels. Conversely, as long as high-level sentinels intentionally hide their whereabouts, it will be almost impossible for low-level sentinels to detect them.
The same goes for the guides.
Although guides are generally not good at sensing each other, the higher their level, the less likely they are to be sensed by the sentinels.
According to common sense, she is now an S-level guide and Li Zhou is an S-level sentinel, which is almost the highest configuration.
But the bad thing is that there is also an S on the other side.
Xia Meng didn't dare to take it lightly, and simply said: "There is also an S among them."
It seems that the only option is to gamble.
The two reached an agreement.
At this moment, Xiao Li Zhou suddenly reached out and shook her hand, saying, "I'm familiar with this area. I'll take you there."
As he spoke, he loosened his hand, walked over to her, squatted down, and said, "I'll carry you on my back. It'll be faster."
Xia Meng didn't hesitate and immediately lay on his back.
She knew that she could never outrun those cheetah-like sentinels on her own two feet.
Besides, it was freezing cold, and her hugging him from behind was like putting an extra coat on him, which would at least keep both of them warmer.
Thus, a sudden escape began.
…
Two minutes later.
Several figures appeared one after another where the broken combat suit fell.
Someone squatted down in front of the combat suit, reached out to lift the cuff of the suit, and turned out the damaged metal ring.
"It's really her battle suit."
"The little girl ran away?"
"I don't think it's possible. This forbidden ring cannot be removed by ordinary people."
"That's right, it's impossible to dismantle it with the power of the guide alone."
"I guess that S-rank sentinel dismantled it?"
"He held her hostage?"
"Very likely. After all, he's such a valuable S-rank guide."
"Hermann, what now?"
As soon as these words fell, everyone subconsciously turned to look at Hermann.
The others are all A-level, so it is almost impossible to track down an S-level.
We can only rely on Hermann.
Herman's face visibly darkened.
He stared at the fragments of his battle suit scattered on the ground.
Want to rob someone?
dream.
"Chase."
"yes!"
…
Xiao Li Zhou carried Xia Meng on his back for a long distance.
Instead of taking the main road, they continued along the mountain path.
We crossed several mountains and the straight-line distance was hundreds of kilometers.
The people who were tracking them probably would never have imagined that these two little kids could walk so far in just one or two hours.
Finally, he dropped her off at a remote, vacant hunting lodge.
There was no smell of smoke in the room, and it was obvious that no one had lived there for a long time.
But the room was kept clean.
This hunting lodge is far away from the town and has no electricity, so the furnishings inside are relatively primitive.
There were candles and a fireplace with chopped wood in it.
Xiao Li Zhou put her sitting on the chair.
Xia Meng reached out and pulled at her coat.
Perhaps because of the terrain, this place is much colder than the small town just now.
Little Li Zhou walked to the fireplace and squatted down. After searching for a while, he found a box of matches and lit the firewood in the fireplace.
The temperature in the room quickly rose several degrees.
Little Li Zhou stood up, walked to the window and looked outside.
The hunting lodge is located on the hillside of the mountain, and the view from the window is just enough to see the mountain below.
Looking from a distance, you can see another small town not far below the mountain.
The sky was getting a little darker, and thousands of lights were lit up in the small town.
Judging from the scale, it is a little bigger than the previous town and has a railway.
Xiao Li Zhou turned around and said to Xia Meng, "There's a train to the town ahead. We can take the earliest train tomorrow morning."
Xia Meng nodded.
Little Li Zhou said again, "I'm going out to find something to eat."
Don't be fooled by his young age, he is actually quite caring.
Xia Meng watched him busying around quietly, then went out for about ten minutes. When she came back, she was holding a thermos cup in her hand.
The thermos cup has two layers. The lid can be unscrewed. The upper layer contains some bread, and the lower layer contains a large pot of hot borscht.
The sky gradually darkened.
Xiao Li Zhou made a bed and motioned Xia Meng to lie down.
"You should go to bed early."
Xia Meng sat on the edge of the bed and looked up at him: "What about you? Are you sleeping here too?"
Xiao Li Zhou nodded and said, "You go to sleep first. I'll lie down in a while."
Xia Meng raised her eyes.
The candlelight was dancing on the table, and the warm yellow light was dancing on the boy's tender profile.
She suddenly asked, "Do you want to leave alone while I'm sleeping?"
Xiao Li Zhou froze.
Perhaps it was because he was too young, her sudden question caught him off guard, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes as if he had been seen through.
He thought he had covered it up well.
Unexpectedly, it still didn't escape her eyes.
Little Li Zhou lowered his eyes feeling a little guilty.
I didn't expect to be seen through.
After a long moment, he sighed and asked, "How did you figure that out?"
Xia Mengxin said, because she knew him too well.
So much so that she could tell what he was thinking from his face at a glance.
He can't even lie.
He showed her the way to the small town at the foot of the mountain and coaxed her to go to bed early.
Everything he did clearly showed that he wanted her to leave alone.
Xia Meng sighed softly: "Do you want to go back?"
Little Li Zhou raised his eyes slowly and silently.
Yes.
He wants to go back.
It wasn't that he didn't believe her, nor was it for any other reason, he just...
"You just can't let go of your parents, right?" Xia Meng's eyes were penetrating as he calmly stated his thoughts. "You want to go back and take a look, at least to confirm whether they really met with an accident. Is that right?"
The candlelight danced in the pupils of the two people.
Just as Xiao Li Zhou was about to nod, he saw Xia Meng suddenly prop herself up and stand up.
She said very straightforwardly: "Okay, then I'll go with you."
Xiao Li Zhou was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "You can't go back."
Xia Meng: "Why?"
Xiao Li Zhou: "They will catch you. It's too dangerous."
Xia Meng: "They will catch you too."
Little Li Zhou: "I'm not afraid, I'm very powerful."
Xia Meng paused.
So, he sent her here on purpose, at least to ensure her safety before turning back?
This child...
Why is he so kind at such a young age?
Xia Meng couldn't help but sigh, feeling sad.
There was no way she could really let him go back alone.
Otherwise, everything she had done before would be in vain.
Xia Meng stood up: "I'll go back with you."
Xiao Li Zhou: “But——”
Xia Meng interrupted him: "If you get caught, there's no point in me leaving alone."
Then, she said half-seriously, "Originally, I came here today to save you."
Little Li Zhou believed it immediately.
He: "So...shall we leave now?"
"Wait a minute." Xia Meng said, "We need to make some preparations before we go back."
Xiao Li Zhou: "?"
Xia Meng touched her chin.
The sentries must be combing the town right now.
There must be someone staying near Xiao Lizhou's house, waiting for the opportunity.
If they go back, they must lead those people away.
Xia Meng thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have a spiritual body?"
Xiao Li Zhou shook his head: "I haven't awakened for long, and it hasn't condensed yet."
Xia Meng was a little confused because she gave birth to Ergou the next day.
But on second thought, it is understandable. After all, she does not have a spiritual body in this mental picture.
Xia Meng: "Please do me a favor."
Xiao Li Zhou: "What?"
Xia Meng: "Help me catch a small animal, a nocturnal animal that likes to move at night. The faster it runs, the better, and the harder it is to catch, the better."
Xiao Li Zhou: "...?"
