Chapter 50: I, a Gentleman to the Core
Qin Liu saw Liu Haoyu squatting in front of Liu Zining and asked with a little worry.
“How is my… Liu Zining doing?”
Seeing his younger sister, Qin Liu was naturally extremely excited and worried, almost blurting out something very unfavorable.
But Liu Haoyu didn’t notice the impropriety in Qin Liu’s words.
He carefully examined Liu Zining’s physical condition.
Because she was entangled by this extremely dense resentment energy, she had fallen into a coma.
But before falling into a coma, Liu Zining used talismans to protect her body and soul.
This resentment energy did not have a significant impact on her origin.
“She seems fine, but this resentment energy is a bit troublesome, wait for me…”
Liu Haoyu took out a Calming Talisman from his pocket and placed it on Liu Zining’s forehead. Then he took out another Exorcism Talisman, pulled up her clothes, and placed it on her belly.
After doing all this, Liu Haoyu began to chant something that Qin Liu couldn’t understand at all.
But what she could see was some black, unknown energy being forced out of Liu Zining’s body.
“With this, there should be no problem.”
Liu Haoyu put Liu Zining on his back and said to Qin Liu.
“Let’s go back.”
“Ah, okay…”
Qin Liu came back to her senses and followed Liu Haoyu.
She felt a little uneasy.
Because Liu Haoyu had fainted after entering the room, in order to save him, she proactively accepted the so-called mission and pulled Liu Haoyu out of the illusion.
But the problem now was that she felt the voice in her mind becoming clearer and clearer, and even her past memories were becoming increasingly blurry.
This was really not a good thing, but she didn’t dare to say it.
In fact, even if Qin Liu didn’t say anything, Liu Haoyu, carrying Liu Zining on his back, knew about the unease and worry in the little ghost’s heart.
Her thoughts were too easy to guess. With this expression like a little dog that had done something wrong, anyone could guess at a glance that she had just used the guide’s function.
But thankfully…
The Black Book had already provided an answer.
“No problem for now.”
Liu Haoyu put down the Black Book and continued to walk forward.
Jiang Ran’s corpse was still inside the air-raid shelter.
Looking at his friend’s miserable corpse, Liu Haoyu sighed.
Then he took out a Divine Fire Talisman and burned the corpse and blood to ashes.
Having been harmed by a fierce ghost, he might become its ghoul. Burning his corpse could be considered letting his soul rest in peace.
After walking for a long time, Liu Haoyu finally walked out of the air-raid shelter.
He glanced at the time, 11:38…
The air-raid shelter behind him was still dark and strange, as if it were the Yellow Springs road leading to hell.
Combined with what he saw when he fainted.
No wonder the Black Book said he had to leave here before 12 o’clock.
“How do we get back now?”
Qin Liu looked at her sister on Liu Haoyu’s back. The girl was still in a coma, and she couldn’t help but worry a little.
“Should we call an ambulance?”
“Mmm…”
While Qin Liu was speaking, Liu Zining let out a soft moan.
The young girl slowly opened her eyes.
Before Liu Haoyu could speak, Liu Zining said.
“You’re Liu Haoyu, right?”
“Yes.”
“Thank you…”
Liu Zining’s voice was a little weak.
When she was in a coma, she had also dreamed of Liu Haoyu.
So she knew some general information about him, but later, due to the effects of the resentment energy, her consciousness began to blur until she completely fell into darkness.
“You’re welcome.”
Liu Haoyu’s reply was very serious, but Liu Zining, who had interacted with Liu Haoyu in her dream, revealed a gentle smile.
“Do you want me to give you a photo of my white stockings as a reward?”
“…”
Liu Haoyu’s expression froze. That gaze, like a thorn in his back, was cast upon him again. This time, he refused very decisively.
“I, a gentleman to the core, how could I want someone’s white stockings?”
“Pfft!”
Liu Zining didn’t expose him.
But she also didn’t get off Liu Haoyu’s back.
Due to the side effects of the life-saving talisman, she felt a sense of powerlessness all over her body.
It was no exaggeration to say that if she had encountered someone other than Liu Haoyu, but a bad person with evil intentions, she would not have had the power to resist.
“Can I get down?”
“Sorry,” Liu Zining said softly, “I’ll have to trouble you to carry me for a bit longer.”
“But carrying you, there’s no way to get down from here.”
Liu Haoyu pointed at the grappling hook in front of him. Carrying someone and using the grappling hook was a very dangerous act.
If he wasn’t careful, he might fall directly.
“I know a small path.”
Liu Zining pointed to the small path in the woods, and then her hand drooped powerlessly.
“Follow this small path, then turn left down the mountain, and you’ll be back by the roadside.”
“Also… can you help me get my mobile phone from my shoulder bag?”
“I’ll contact the Special Task Force to come and pick us up.”
Liu Haoyu raised an eyebrow after hearing this.
“You actually know people from the Special Task Force? Then you should have contacted them in advance before entering the air-raid shelter?”
In response, Liu Zining replied in a weak voice.
“Saving people was urgent… Although I didn’t save anyone, I almost got myself in trouble.”
The advice from Liu Haoyu in her dream was vivid in her memory.
She had to admit that she was a bit overconfident.
“Don’t look at me with that senior-like gaze, I’ll be more careful next time.”
Liu Haoyu’s gaze reminded Liu Zining of someone’s gaze.
Although it felt a bit like being reprimanded, she did miss it a little.
“I hope you keep your word.”
The two of them went down the mountain, and after waiting by the roadside for a while, Liu Zining got off Liu Haoyu’s back.
She sat limply by the roadside and said.
“Mr. Black Night Murderer of Beiming City…”
“If you don’t mention this damn title, we’re still good friends.”
Liu Haoyu took off his mask and covered his face.
It seemed that both he and Liu Zining had the same dream, and they both remembered the communication in the dream clearly.
“Isn’t this quite handsome?”
Hugging her knees, Liu Zining revealed a gentle smile. Her gaze appraised Liu Haoyu.
This man was indeed very handsome after taking off his mask.
As a girl, and having been saved by him, it would be a lie to say she wasn’t moved at all.
But the main point was not this, but Liu Haoyu’s purpose in coming to Jiangquan City.
After a moment of silence, the young girl continued.
“You came here to look for me, didn’t you?”
Liu Zining’s intuition was very sharp. After just a few encounters, she had figured out Liu Haoyu’s real purpose in coming here.
And the man in front of her, after thinking for a moment, said.
“It’s not that I have anything to do with you, but your loved one’s soul wants to see your current situation.”
“That is, your brother named Liu Qing…”
“Brother?”
However, at this moment, Liu Zining showed a look of confusion.
“I don’t have a brother, are you looking for the wrong person?”
