âThis is the situation, but fortunately, we are now only several hundred meters away from the pier, and we will be able to return home by running a section of the road.â Ling Xiao I told Mariko about the current situation, and then somewhat helplessly said: âThe car can only be left here temporarily, you can wait here for a while, I will go home and get an umbrella.â
When they came out, the weather forecast was not at all the rain at night, and when they came back from school, the sky was clear.
So now either Ling Xiao will go back to the old house to get an umbrella, or the two of them will stay here until the rain breaks.
âNo, itâs not far from home. Iâm not so delicate. I just go home now.â Mariko resolutely rejected Ling Xiaoâs suggestion, which made Ling Xiao couldnât help it. Surprised.
But he quickly figured out the reason, laughed and said: âItâs okay, you donât need to worry, no one will be chasing you at this time.â
Ling Xiao thought Mariko The unwillingness to stay here alone is because of security issues, and he is worried that Ling Xiao will cause problems if he leaves him here alone.
But Mariko directly shook the head calmly and said: âYou think too much, I am purely because the rain is not too big.â
The rain is indeed not very heavy. Itâs bigger, itâs smaller than the light rain, and itâs lighter than the light rain grand competition, and itâs really small. If itâs a downpour, they can only be forced to stay in the car, but with the current rain, it really canât stop them. The way.
âWell, you can sit in the car for a while, I will push the tree in front of me, and then I will push the car aside for a while, and donât let the car behind you hit it again. âLing Xiao finished speaking, stepping out of the car again, standing in front of the lying tree, with a strong tiptoe, the whole tree was instantly lifted up to half a meter high, and then he was kicked hard, and the whole tree was kicked directly onto the road. On the side.
To be honest, if Mariko didnât say that just now, Ling Xiao might raise the tree obediently and honestly, and then throw it aside, but inexplicably, just before he did it, he The whole personâs spirit suddenly became tense, and I donât know what the reason was. Anyway, I did it.
shook the head, Ling Xiao walked to the front door of the passenger seat, knocked on the door of the car lightly, just about to say something, suddenly his eyes condensed, the whole person He froze for a moment, but he returned to normal in the blink of an eye.
Ling Xiaoâs expression changed, not at all hiding from Mariko who was close at hand, in the blink of an eye, Mariko had already opened the car door and walked out, asking with a surprised look: âWhatâs the matter? Is there any problem?â
âThere is something wrong, donât look around, look over there.â Ling Xiao took advantage of the trend to protect Mariko under him, while pointing at the one who was kicked aside by him. The roots of the trees, under the light of the car lights, lowered their voice and said: âDo you think that looks like a trace of being cut off?â
Mariko glanced at it, and the whole person couldnât help but be taken aback. Most of the roots of the trees resemble traces of being chopped off with an axe.
âLetâs just say, the wind is not too strong tonight. A tree of this size shouldnât be simply broken by the wind and just lie on the road.â Marikoâs face was very sad. It looks good, if this is the case, it proves that someone has rushed here and is eyeing them.
No matter what, their current situation is very bad. Ling Xiao smiled reluctantly and said comfortingly: âDonât worry too much. Maybe itâs someone who cut the tree in half before the rain. Maybe itâs too late to transport the trees away.â
âDo you believe this?â A sneer appeared on Marikoâs face, and then he said directly: âDonât comfort me, Iâm not that vulnerable. â
âWell, then you pay attention, letâs go now!â Ling Xiao stretched out his hand to embrace Marikoâs shoulders, which seemed to be helping her cover a little rain, but it was already faintly She protected.
Mariko not at all struggling, she just asked in passing: âIs the car just left here, donât care?â
âNo, itâs not necessarily the car just staying here like this. What a bad thing, it wonât be so peaceful here tonight. The car has not been turned off and the lights are on. Maybe it can help us.â Ling Xiao gave up the previous plan in the blink of an eye. He was extremely vigilant at this time. The crisis lurks faintly in the rainy night, and no one knows when the killing-intent will come.
Under the shining of the car lights, Ling Xiao carefully guarded Mariko and quickly approached in the direction of the old house.
Mariko leaned against Ling Xiao. Although the rain on her head was mostly covered by Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao not at all covered it all, especially behind her head, the rain The continuous pouring in from the back of her neck made her feel unusually uncomfortable, but in front of her, Ling Xiaoâs slightly side body had completely blocked her front body from wind and rain.
The two people are so close, Mariko not at all feels unusually uncomfortable, but feels a special warmth. There is a reassuring feeling from Ling Xiao. She was When Wolverine was rescued, Logan looked fierce, but Mariko felt an unusual coldness from him. Mariko knew that it was because the skeletons all over Loganâs body had been replaced by Adamantium.
Ling Xiao protects Mariko and moves forward quickly. Suddenly, Ling Xiaoâs step one stopped, Mariko didnât stop, and continued to move forward. Stepping into the rain, she couldnât help being beaten all over her body. A chill, subconsciously returned to Ling Xiaoâs side, then lifts the head, and asked with a worried look: âWhatâs wrong, is there anything wrong?â
âen!â Ling Xiao calmly Face nodded, and said: âI was negligent. I just thought that we were touched on the way back, so what about the old house? Has the old house been ambushed by the hands? If we were so casual If you run back, will you just run into the trap?â
When Ling Xiao said this, the whole personâs face sank instantly, and she said nodded: âIt seems that we canât go back tonight. âLetâs go, letâs just find a place to rest for one night. I remember that there are several rooms here that are vacant.â Ling Xiao sighed gently, and then whispered: âYou know, all this is probably because we are too nervous oneself, maybe there is no other influence involved in it, all coincidence, there is no ambush in the old house, maybe someone found here, but maybe we havenât found the old one yet. Go to the house.â
âBut after all, I will find it, right?â Mariko was unusually calm at this time, she looked back at the car behind, and then whispered, âI would rather be nervous. Once, I didnât want to take risks at will. Also, the car lights behind canât just turn on like this.â
Ling Xiao glanced back at the distant vehicle. He originally kept the vehicle for It helped them illuminate the road ahead, but now as Mariko said, the car lights canât just be on, because if they continue like this, it will be easy to reveal their tracks.
âItâs easy.â Ling Xiao lowered* picked up two small stones from the road, and then flicked them away at several hundred meters, and then he heard âpeng pengâ twice, the lights were already It was directly destroyed by him, and the stones were mixed on the road under the rain, which was unremarkable at all.
âLetâs go, so even if they finally find the car parked outside the pier, they canât be sure that the car was originally sitting on the who.â Ling Xiao turned his head and glanced at Mariko, facing her nodded, and then protect him and continue to the direction of the dock.
This street on the pier was originally on the fringe of the city. The water depth of the pier is not very deep, and ordinary large ships cannot dock here. Usually, some locals go out to fish. It is used, but in modern fisheries, small-scale fishing and hunting simply cannot make a lot of money, so here is just enough for the locals to ensure food and clothing. If you want to make a lot of money, you still have to go to other places.
Because of this, many people here have moved away, and the houses here canât sell for any price, so they can only be placed here one by one. Only local people know whoâs home. Whose house is it? Outsiders come here. If you want to find out the situation here, you must either ask the locals for inquiries, or you can only touch the houses one by one. If it is the former, these unmanned houses will become visual blind spots. .
