Chapter 172: Lost Control Before the Appointment
"You two are so suspicious, are you talking about something weird behind my back?"
As Bai Qiuwu spoke, he took out an iced drink from the refrigerator outside the supermarket. Then he turned his head slightly and looked at the two people sitting on the public wooden chairs with curiosity out of the corner of his eye.
Their expressions were also quite awkward, and they opened their mouths for a long time without saying anything.
Seeing the two people's expressions, Bai Qiuwu slightly raised his eyebrows, and said "hmm" in a long and confused voice, and then said to the supermarket: "Boss, put it on my father's account."
"Okay." The boss said without even looking up.
Bai Qiuwu unscrewed the cap of the drink bottle, took a sip, then hugged his shoulders and looked at the two people: "So, what are you doing?"
"We are..." Ke Xiaomo said, pausing slightly, "Nothing. Just talking about his new girlfriend at school. This guy refuses to acknowledge her."
Ke Mingye turned his face away and said helplessly: "I said he lost the truth or dare game, but he refused to believe it."
As we were talking, a bus drove slowly past the supermarket. Two rows of headlights briefly illuminated the night before disappearing into the darkness with a horn honking.
"Forget it, I really can't beat this kid."
Ke Xiaomo was silent for a moment, raised his hand slightly, rubbed Ke Mingye's hair, then stood up from the public wooden chair, walked towards home with a sullen face, and took the elevator.
Ke Mingye breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was a good thing his elder sister came to the rescue, otherwise, with his second brother's personality, he would have to be tied up here for a whole night of talk therapy.
Bai Qiuwu quietly watched Ke Xiaomo's back as he left, then sat down on a public wooden chair and whispered to Ke Mingye next to him.
"What on earth are you doing? This is the first time I see my second brother so angry."
"No way."
"Second brother's temper can make him so angry. You must have done something wrong."
"Oh my god, it must be my fault if he's angry, stop kidding me."
Bai Qiuwu rolled her eyes at him, pressed her iced drink against his neck, lowered her face and said, "Are you still going to recruit?"
Ke Mingye sighed, pushed the bottle of drink away with his hand, and said, "Didn't you isolate me in the last meeting? Do you have the nerve to do that?"
"Oh, you said you don't want it."
As Bai Qiuwu was talking, he suddenly lowered his eyes to look at the corner of the bench.
She found that her second brother had left a notebook on the chair before he left. She flipped through two pages and saw the prototype of the Blue Owl combat uniform that someone had scribbled on it.
"What are you looking for? You really have no moral integrity. You are rummaging through the things of adolescent boys."
Seeing this, Ke Mingye became anxious. As he spoke, he reached out to take back the notebook and stuffed it into his shorts pocket.
"I'm still a teenage girl."
"Vomiting."
"You want to piss me off too, right?"
Bai Qiuwu raised the corner of his mouth and spoke, clenching his five fingers slightly, and punched out with an astonishing speed but restrained force, lightly "knocking" on Ke Mingye's chest.
Ke Mingye's eyes suddenly widened, he raised his right hand, covered his chest and screamed, he couldn't even straighten his waist, and his face turned pale.
"No, sister, what's wrong with you?!" He turned his head and said with a frown.
The boss sitting behind the counter adjusted his reading glasses and squinted his eyes to look at the scene outside. Bai Qiuwu was very embarrassed, and he reached out and patted Ke Mingye on the back and asked in a low voice.
"I just touched you lightly, why are you screaming like that? Are you trying to scam me?"
Her tone was light, but her eyes flickered slightly and her expression gradually became solemn.
Bai Qiuwu was thinking back to the scene that happened not long ago in Linjiang Business District. At that time, Blue Owl was injured by the witch right in the chest. He also said that he had broken one or two ribs.
Thinking of this, Bai Qiuwu glanced at Ke Mingye's chest. Through the sweat-stained T-shirt, he could clearly see the black and blue spots on his chest.
She was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head slightly and breathed a sigh of relief. There was a flickering fire in her eyes. Normally, when this brother was being mean, she would want to beat him into a mute, but at this moment, she felt really distressed...
Bai Qiuwu shook his head and turned to look at the street shrouded in darkness. With the dim lights of the supermarket, he could clearly see the train passing by on the viaduct in the distance.
After a while, amid the sound of cicadas, she hesitated to speak: "You..."
"What happened to me?"
"Your family will be worried about you. Remember to tell us if you have any problems. Don't keep it in your heart."
"Ah."
"Whatever you do, don't be too stubborn."
"I know."
Bai Qiuwu lowered his head and remained silent for a while, then asked softly with a hint of blame in his tone.
"Do you really know?"
"I know, I know. You are the same as my second brother. He is an old man among young men, and you are an old man among young women."
"Okay, you dare to talk to me like that." Bai Qiuwu laughed, "Now I know why my second brother was so angry with you."
"I was wrong, I was wrong... Please don't drag me into the therapy session."
"No."
"true and false?"
"Well... I'm home."
Bai Qiuwu said this, stood up from the public bench, and walked towards the apartment building step by step with his back to the lights of the supermarket.
"I will protect you."
"Before things get out of control, protect everyone around you. Then... find a place to leave in peace."
As she thought about it, she raised her head slightly, her face immersed in the darkness of the corridor, but in her drooping pupils there flashed a red-gold flame. Ke Mingye sat on a public bench, quietly watching Bai Qiuwu's figure enter the elevator.
From this, it can be confirmed that my second brother and eldest sister know my identity. Moreover, my second brother is also tracking down the person who spread the parasite. If it goes as expected, it should be that my eldest brother asked him to find the culprit of this incident.
Since she had already told her second brother the true face of Gastello by using the identity of the dice monster, it was only a matter of time before she was found by her second brother.
Cai Bing will also help. As long as Gastro appears on the surveillance cameras in the city, she will tell me the first time.
With this double protection, even if Gastro hides well, I should be able to find her within two weeks.
And then... kill her.
Ke Mingye was lost in thought when the supermarket owner stood up from the chair behind the counter, came out with a fan in hand, and said, "I'm almost closing the store, young man."
He said, "Oh, I'll sit for a while and then leave."
"The world has been really unstable lately. Parasites, dice monsters, and now even criminals dare to attack the Super Hero Building. What can they not do in the future?"
The boss looked up, squinted his eyes, looked at the brightly lit high-rise buildings in the distance, and sighed.
"It's okay, everything will be fine after this year... Everything will be fine."
Ke Mingye lowered his head and played with his mobile phone, speaking casually.
The boss fanned his face, smiled and said, "Yeah, I hope it will be better next year."
Ke Mingye shrugged his shoulders and opened the task panel for today. While he was on duty with the Blue Owl, he also completed his daily tasks at the train station.
[Daily Task 3000: Run meters (one chance to use the reward wheel) (completed)]
[Daily Task 2: Do pull-ups ( attribute points that can be freely allocated) (Completed)]
[Received the reward for daily task 2 "One Hundred Pull-ups", and obtained 2 attribute points that can be freely allocated.]
Ke Mingye pretended to play with his mobile phone, silently raised his finger, and clicked the two attribute points he had just obtained on the two attributes of "physical fitness" and "mental strength" respectively.
[Your "Physical Fitness" attribute changes: 66→67 points (↑1 point). ]
[Your "Spiritual Power" attribute changes: 24 → 25 points (↑1 points)]
[Received the reward for daily task 1 "Run 3000 meters" and got a chance to win a lucky draw. ]
As the prompt box disappeared, the reward wheel slowly unfolded in front of him, and then the text of six areas came into view.
[3000. mall coins;]
【2. 40% off shopping vouchers;】
[3. A Summoning Card Bundle;]
[4. A fragment of a low-level skill enhancement card (collect three fragments of skill enhancement cards to synthesize a low-level skill enhancement card) (a low-level skill enhancement card can be used to enhance an E-level skill);]
[5. A copy refresh ticket (allows you to challenge a copy that you have already won, but some rewards cannot be obtained repeatedly);]
[Six, 2 attribute points that can be freely allocated.]
While drinking Coke, Ke Mingye pressed the start button of the turntable, and then the pointer began to rotate at high speed.
Finally, it slowly stopped above area number four.
[Congratulations, you have obtained the reward for area 3: a fragment of a low-level skill enhancement card (currently you have in total). ]
[The fragments of 3 low-level skill enhancement cards have been collected and automatically pieced together into a "low-level skill enhancement card". This enhancement card has been added to your bag. ]
"Oh?"
Seeing this, Ke Mingye raised his eyebrows slightly, then quickly opened his bag and clicked on the introduction panel of the low-level skill enhancement card.
[Item name: Low-level skill enhancement card]
[Item Introduction: Low-level skill enhancement cards can be used to enhance any E-level skill. Using them on different E-level skills will produce different enhancement effects.]
[Currently in your skill column, the following items meet the conditions for using this item: "Phase Shift", "Superhero Landing", "Animal Communication", "Safety Restriction Removal", and "Personality Tearing". ]
[After selecting a skill, you can strengthen it. ]
Ke Mingye had previously checked the enhancement effects one by one, so he pressed the "Personality Tearing" option without thinking.
[Do you want to use this enhancement card for the skill "Personality Tear"? ]
"Yes." He responded in his heart.
[After strengthening, the skill effect of "Personality Tearing" has been expanded. 】
[The specific changes are as follows: Split your main personality into "2" secondary personalities → Split your main personality into "3" secondary personalities. ]
"Oh my god, now we can have a Mahjong table."
Ke Mingye thought secretly.
"Oh, playing Landlord seems to work... but Blue Owl and Little Red Riding Hood won't be pressed to the ground and rubbed by the weird things, right?"
My sister suggested that I recommend a book written by a friend in the same group, “Love Begins with Quitting the Team”, written by Shuke’s The Devil from the Outside World (shhh.
The following is a brief introduction:
Invited to join the most famous team of heroes of this era, Ronan found that everyone was very strong, and being passive became his favorite thing to do.
As the only two men in the team, from Ronan's perspective, the team's personnel configuration looks like a hearty Shura Field battle!
The stock market is very clear. The saint's stocks hit the daily limit, while the childhood sweetheart's stocks hit the daily limit. That spoiled wizard lady is about to become a loser.
However, the fire in the city gate affected the innocent people. As a rare male in the team, Ronan felt that this harem team could not accommodate him, so he found an opportunity to resign. As expected, his resignation report was directly approved.
But when he was leaving, Ronan didn't expect someone to catch up with him. "Take me with you."
The hero's childhood sweetheart, a classic tsundere, the wizard lady in the team followed him and looked like she was going to elope with him.
