Chapter 452 Assembly Order
"The morning news is here for you..."
"Regarding the multiple violent incidents that occurred last night, currently..."
On the TV screen, a dignified female anchor was reading a press release. As the official media, it was naturally impossible to broadcast those false rumors. The main thing was to sort out the currently known information, appease the people's emotions, and remind residents to pay attention to safety.
"Tch! Pay attention to safety. Is that something I can pay attention to if I want to?"
In front of the dining table, a boy in a school uniform who looked like a middle school student said: "Didn't you see that our class teacher was nailed to the wall yesterday? The murderer was more ferocious than the Terminator. He even penetrated the wall behind Teacher Li." It’s so bloody!”
"I can't even shut your mouth when I eat!" The boy's mother tapped the rim of his bowl with chopsticks: "Didn't you hear what the TV said? Those are all emergencies... Besides, it's not as exaggerated as you said. Even the wall It can be penetrated. You have watched too many cartoons. Eat quickly and go to school!"
"Damn it, why don't you let him go..." The child's father was wearing glasses and looked gentle: "Yesterday, the Moments and short video platforms were all maxed out. It's not like an ordinary violent incident. There may be supernatural phenomena…”
"Supernatural! You look like a supernatural to me!" The woman was furious when she saw her husband: "The high school entrance examination will be held in half a year, and now is the critical time. If you don't go to school at all times, you will not be able to pass the exam." High school, I will be as useless as you in the future!”
"Why did it get involved with me..." The man looked displeased, but he didn't dare to get really angry, so he could only mutter secretly.
At this time, the bedroom door opened, and a long-haired girl came out. She was tall and beautiful, with a touch of indifference and sharpness between her eyebrows... It was Ling Xin!
"Why did you get up!" When the woman saw her eldest daughter, she hurriedly scolded: "Hurry up and have something to eat and go to work. If you are late on the first day of work, what will your boss think of you?"
Ling Xin didn't say anything. She looked at her "brother" in school uniform at the dining table and her "dad" who was checking her cell phone. She shook her head.
"Don't go out today, it's very dangerous outside."
"What did you say?" Mom's eyebrows rose: "Don't go out? Your dad doesn't have to go to work? Your brother doesn't have to go to school?"
"Ask for leave." Ling Xin said calmly: "Stay at home today, and always pay attention to the situation outside. If you find anything unusual, run away immediately. The home is not 100% safe..." As she said that, she took a look He calculated the time silently: "Especially around one o'clock in the afternoon, if you see any monsters outside causing a disturbance, you should stay away as soon as possible."
"What monster? What crazy talk are you talking about?" Mom knocked on the table: "Forget about your dad and your brother, you just found a job and asked for leave. Is it appropriate?"
"I will go..." Ling Xin sighed. When she arrived yesterday, she was in this home. There were only her mother, a retired housewife, and she, an unemployed young man, in the house. Before she could get used to the environment, the phone rang in the house. Then her mother handed over the phone that was left in the bathroom and watched her answer it.
The call came from the company where she interviewed a few days ago, informing her that she had been hired and could report to the unit tomorrow. Before Ling Xin could react, her mother was the first to cheer. That look of joy from the bottom of her heart actually made this girl who had lost her parents since childhood feel a little warm...
Even though the warmth was false, even though this family that seemed noisy but had the smell of human fireworks in its bones did not belong to her, Ling Xin still didn't want anything to happen to them.
Maybe they are just a mission background, and they don't even have a past or a future, but at least they can spend these three days safely.
"I will go to work, but you must not run around and do as I say."
Ling Xin's tone was very firm, and her mother was a little stunned. After hesitating for a few times, she still insisted: "Then you can't go to work or go to school... If you ask me to say that you are unfounded, there is no such chaos outside... "As she spoke, she pointed to the TV: "Look, isn't the news broadcast? These are just emergencies. The police have started investigating, so let's not panic..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the female anchor on the TV suddenly screamed. The younger brother's eyes widened and he pointed at the screen and said, "Look!"
The whole family looked towards the TV and saw a man wearing a half-face mask walking into the studio and pushing the news anchor to the edge of the screen.
"What happened?" The sudden situation made the father and son very excited. Ling Xin frowned on the side. She knew that mask. It was Ye who once rescued her from the wild underground ruins!
However, before anyone could take a closer look, the screen suddenly cut to an advertisement. Obviously, the studio had made emergency response to such emergencies.
"Mom, look, it's really dangerous outside!" My younger brother shouted excitedly, "The terrorists have all rushed to the TV station!"
"What kind of terrorist!" Mom was still stubborn: "It was just an accident. The TV station has already taken emergency measures. It means that the masked man has been controlled. Maybe the broadcast will resume after a while."
"I don't think so..." Dad pushed up his glasses and analyzed from the side with the reflection of the lenses: "The TV station is not a vegetable market. You can come and go as soon as you say... That masked man can rush to the studio in full view of everyone. Time, it already explains the problem, and looking at the expression of the female anchor..."
"You're the only one who talks a lot, right?" Mom glared at Dad, which immediately made the adult Conan become a bitch...
Just then, the program resumed.
"Hey, see, I told you it would resume in a while!" Mom pointed at the screen arrogantly. After a closer look, she found that the person sitting in the middle of the studio was not the previous female anchor, but the masked man.
"Hello?" Facing the TV station staff who were full of fear and forced to cooperate, Luo Jun tried the microphone, cleared his throat, and said to the camera.
"Hello everyone, my name is Ye. Most viewers may not know me, but I believe that at least 24 people in the city have heard of me..."
"I came here mainly to send a message to these 20 compatriots."
"If you want to successfully complete our goal, then come to the shopping mall on Wanghe Road on time at 10 o'clock. I will wait for you in front of the main entrance. In order to thank everyone for their cooperation, I will give 100 points to each friend who is present as a thank you gift."
"In addition, don't doubt my ability. I killed the source of the disaster last night. Believe me, if you want to complete the task and get the greatest benefit, cooperating with me is the only way!"
After saying this, Luo Jun left the studio, leaving only the TV station staff who were still in panic.
"This, this, this... What is going on?"
Ling Xin's "brother" looked excited: "Mom, did you see it? That mysterious man really hijacked the TV station! He is definitely not an ordinary person! What does he mean by gathering at the shopping mall at 10 o'clock? I want to go and see it too!"
"No!" Before her mother could refute, Ling Xin stopped him first.
"I'm going to work. Remember what I said. Don't go out. Take leave if you can. Be careful of danger at all times. Don't get involved with the weirdo on TV just now!"
"But what about you?" Dad was a little worried: "Since it's so dangerous outside, don't go out... It's just a job. You can find another one..."
"I'm different." Ling Xin shook her head: "I may not come back to live these days. Don't worry. The day after tomorrow night, everything will be back to normal..."
"Not coming back to live? Then where will you live?" Mom was not happy when she heard it: "Do you have a boyfriend? Don't just put yourself together. Be reserved as a grown-up girl!"
"Mom's" concern warmed Ling Xin's heart, but she didn't have time to delay with them. She sighed, raised her hand and picked up a stainless steel soup spoon on the table, pinched it with both hands, and twisted it hard. There was a creaking sound of metal tearing. The stainless steel spoon surface, which was more than one millimeter thick, was torn apart by her, just like tearing cardboard.
"Wow! Sister, are you doing magic?" The younger brother was shocked. Ling Xin threw the spoon on the table. Dad picked it up and checked it. He took a breath and said, "It's not a magic prop, it's real stainless steel..."
"I'm not your sister, nor your daughter." Ling Xin showed her cards directly: "If you want to live, listen to me. The world has changed in the past few days!"
When she said this, she released murderous aura, shocked the three people, and then pushed the door and left.
"The shopping mall on Wanghe Road..." Ling Xin took out her mobile phone to search for the address. She found that it was not far away, so she went out and took a subway and soon arrived at the target location.
This is the largest shopping mall in the city, located next to the main road in the city center. Although it is not open at this time, the subway station at the door and the vehicles on the road are all telling the prosperity of this place.
Is it night yet?
Ling Xin walked around the main entrance of the mall as if nothing had happened, and then chose a fast food restaurant near the main entrance to sit down. After ordering a breakfast, she looked through the window and observed the main entrance of the mall and the surrounding environment.
Ye's approach is very radical, but it is indeed the fastest way to gather teammates. Ling Xin also had this idea, but it not only attracted teammates, but also enemies. This method is very dangerous. Without absolute strength, you dare not try it casually.
But Ye is different... Ling Xin has seen him in the underground excellent trial field. He has incredible innate bones. Even if his vitality is sealed, his physical strength exceeds most of the masters of Pei Yuan and even Ning Xin. And if he really killed the corpse king last night, he must have recovered all his realms now, and may even unlock the legendary treasure.
With such strength, he is indeed qualified to stand on the stage.
I just don't know what this guy has planned.
But it doesn't matter. Even if the plan can't be negotiated, there should be some gains this time.
The reason why Ling Xin came here, in addition to wanting to contact other teammates, also has other purposes.
She believes that Ye's declaration will definitely attract polluters. If she can take the opportunity to kill one or two, it will be worth the trip.
Eating breakfast and waiting for a while, she didn't see the polluters, but saw many ordinary people gathered near the entrance of the mall.
They all saw the morning news and came here to watch the fun. Some of them even live-streamed with selfie sticks... Humans are sometimes unreasonable. The mysterious man who occupied the TV station was a dangerous person. They dared to join in the fun. I don't know whether to say they are brave or stupid.
But soon, Ling Xin found that there were some suspicious guys among the crowd. They looked the same as others, but they were obviously more alert and talked to themselves from time to time. With her extraordinary eyesight, Ling Xin could see that they were all wearing hidden headphones.
Plainclothes?
That's right. Such a high-profile hijacking of a TV station can almost be regarded as a terrorist act. How could the police not take action? I believe there should be more police hidden in the nearby streets and alleys. Considering the violent incident yesterday, they should have prepared a lot of powerful weapons.
Time passed by minute by minute. At nine o'clock, the mall opened normally. The flow of people in and out made the main entrance more lively and attracted more people to watch the excitement. At the same time, Ling Xin also saw some familiar faces nearby.
Across the street, there was a tall man wandering back and forth. He was Shi Yong from the Shuncheng Shi family. This guy was a leader among the younger generation of Zhendan and was also considered to be the most promising master of the Shi family to reach the peak.
In a cafe not far away, there was a young man and woman sitting, both with dyed red hair. The man looked to be in his twenties, and the woman was younger, at most in her early twenties. They looked like a couple with the same hair color, but Ling Xin knew that their hair was natural.
Chen Yan and Chen Fei from the Chen family in Zhuque Town are Chen Ran's cousins, but their strength is much higher than Chen Ran's. Especially Chen Fei, although she is a girl and a student of Kansai University, she is top-notch in both talent and ability, and is even considered the strongest competitor for the next head of the family!
Not far away, the girl standing at the entrance of the subway station to enjoy the cool is Zhuge Lan, who had met before when fighting against Long Hui...
There are many masters attracted here. Ling Xin drank a sip of coffee, squinted her eyes, and then turned her head slightly to look at the door of the fast food restaurant... There is another one.
"I didn't expect you to come too?" A slightly lazy voice sounded, and a man with long hair walked into the fast food restaurant, went straight to Ling Xin's seat, and sat opposite her.
"If I remember correctly, you participated in a chaos mission at the beginning of the month, right?" The man smiled and looked at Ling Xin: "You can appear here, did you use a treasure?"
"This has nothing to do with you." Ling Xin snorted coldly and glanced at the man in front of her with a little dissatisfaction.
"Don't be so cold..." The man shrugged his shoulders: "Don't forget, Uncle Jue said that when you grow up, he will marry you to me!"
