2052, Thirty Years Of Sleep

"Your name is Yan Muyun, right."

The young man has short black hair, erect facial features, and eyes as cold as stars. He would probably be a school hero in their school. However, the words he said made Yan Muyun's hazy drunkenness immediately dissipate.

"How do you know my name?" he asked with a slight frown.

"Of course I have investigated you." The young man said calmly.

Maybe it was because he drank too much, or maybe it was the tone and demeanor of the other person when he spoke. In Yan Muyun's eyes, the image of the other person gradually became more consistent with his eldest nephew.

He shook his somewhat groggy head, frowned slightly and said, "Why are you investigating me?"

"Because I need help."

The young man replied expressionlessly, then took two steps forward and stretched out a hand: "Let me meet you, my name is Zhan Lewen."

However, Yan Muyun did not shake the other person's hand. He just leaned against the stone railing and looked at him with a scrutinizing look.

The two of them remained eerily still, like a paused video. Only the dull music with strong drumbeats coming from the nightclub not far away showed that time was still flowing slowly.

"Maybe... you've heard me by another name."

The young man slowly put down his hand, stared at the man opposite him with his dark eyes, and slowly spoke:

"Night Stalker."

The dark shadow of Western-style armor appeared on his body, and then disappeared instantly, so fast that people suspected that it was just an illusion.

However, Yan Muyun knew very well that it was not an illusion. Whether it was the weird dark gold runes engraved on it or the scars from numerous large and small knives and swords, they all matched perfectly with the one he met a few days ago.

Zhan Lewen finally had a different expression on his face and asked, "Aren't you surprised at all?"

"I'm surprised." Yan Muyun raised his eyebrows. He really didn't expect that the handsome young man in front of him was a serial murderer in Jieke who was famous for his brutal committing crimes.

The reason why he didn't react was because he didn't feel any hostility or threat from this young man.

"The main thing is that I didn't expect that the real body under that armor was not that tall." Yan Muyun grinned.

The jet-black armor was more than two meters long, so whether it was his or the official speculation, the real murderer must be a burly man. Who would have thought that there was a handsome young man hidden under such a burly and fierce armor?

"Don't you want to catch me?" Zhan Lewen frowned, and he found that he couldn't understand this person.

"We have fought before, and you know what my powers are. Since you dare to appear in front of me like this, either you are sure that I can't catch you, or I have a back-up plan. Professionals from the Special Branch and the Special Detection Division The police have been arresting you for almost two months, and they haven't even figured out what you look like, so I don't think I can restrain you."

Yan Muyun smiled slightly, still looking lazy: "What I'm more interested in now is why you came to me."

"Take off your bracelet first." Zhan Lewen said expressionlessly.

Yan Muyun laughed, and the left hand wearing the Zhitong operating bracelet stopped moving.

I originally wanted to secretly contact my classmates in the nightclub, but I was discovered.

However, at this moment, he raised his eyebrows slightly and saw a familiar figure behind Zhan Lewen.

The girl in the hoodie put her hands in her pockets and came to the boy's side with brisk steps. She looked at the boy with cat-like eyes, then looked at him again and blinked curiously.

As if he noticed something was wrong with Yan Muyun's eyes, Zhan Lewen frowned and turned around suddenly to look behind him, but he saw nothing.

Ye Buyu was standing on his left side, but he turned to the right.

Zhan Lewen turned his head and said coldly: "What's behind me?"

"Nothing, I drank too much." Yan Muyun pretended to be confused, rubbing his eyes and looking a little drunk.

Zhan Lewen frowned slightly: "I already regret asking you for help."

"You haven't said what kind of help you want from me until now." Yan Muyun shrugged: "Don't worry, I've always been very reliable at work."

At this time, he had a sobriety potion in his trouser pocket, which was specially prepared to deal with emergencies similar to today.

However, Zhan Lewen still did not answer the question directly, but asked: "Do you know why I killed so many people?"

"The Internet says you are a psychopath who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people." Yan Muyun said calmly.

To be honest, he had made up his mind that when he saw the "Night Demon" again, he would not hesitate to bring him to justice or kill him, and never give him a chance to escape.

But now that he actually saw the real person under the armor, he hesitated a little, always feeling that things were not as simple as they appeared.

"Maybe, maybe not." Zhan Lewen did not refute, but turned around: "Follow me, the facts you see with your own eyes are more convincing than any words."

Yan Muyun did not follow him immediately, but turned his head slightly to look at the girl standing not far from the boy.

Ye Buyu raised his head slightly and took off his hood, and said in a crisp voice, "Let's go and have a look with him."

The sudden sound obviously startled Zhan Lewen, and he rushed out like an arrow from a string. At the same time, the illusory jet-black armor on his body was looming, as if it would completely solidify in the next second.

Yan Muyun's expression also became serious at this moment. If the other party dared to take action, he would stop it immediately.

After seeing the girl, Zhan Lewen was shocked and angry: "When did you come!"

"Since you asked him to take off the bracelet, but he didn't take it off." Ye Buyu blinked.

"You still called someone!?" Zhan Lewen glared at Yan Muyun, already wanting to escape. You must know that there are several students from the inner courtyard of Chenjing Academy in the nightclub. If they have already set up an ambush nearby, I am destined to be in danger tonight.

However, Yan Muyun spread his hands innocently: "No."

"I just came out for some air and happened to see you guys chatting." Ye Buyu also explained.

Zhan Lewen backed away slowly, his eyes becoming more fierce: "Why should I believe you?"

Ye Buyu tilted his head slightly, with a smile on his face: "Because we believe in you."

Zhan Lewen was stunned: "What?"

Yan Muyun: "?"

How come I didn't know I already believed him?

However, the girl smiled, stood up on tiptoes and patted his shoulder: "I can hear his heart. He does not have any ill intentions, and he does need help."

Zhan Lewen did not relax at all, but looked even more nervous: "Mind reading?"

"No, no, no, it's not that powerful. I can't control my powers. I just occasionally hear other people's thoughts and feel their emotions." Ye Buyu waved his hand.

Yan Muyun looked at her deeply and said nothing.

One of Ye Buyu's known powers is to eliminate her own sense of existence, which can make people around her temporarily forget her existence. But because of the presence of [Silver Guard], this ability will not have an effect on him.

Now that she knows about her second power, she can hear the voices of people around her, but she doesn’t know if it will have an effect on herself...

Silly goose?

Yan Muyun secretly said in his heart.

Ye Buyu glared at him: "Did you scold me in your heart?"

Yan Muyun was shocked: "Can you hear what I'm thinking?"

"I can't hear you, and I don't know why my powers have no effect on you." Ye Buyu raised his fist fiercely: "But I know what you are thinking now without listening."

Not far away stood Zhan Lewen, who was ready to escape at any time: "?"

Now he really doubted whether he was overthinking it. Those two people really didn't look like they would do one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes.

Well, the abbreviation is meaningless.

"He is indeed stupid, but I am smart." Ye Buyu suddenly turned around and said seriously to the young man not far away.

Zhan Lewen: "..."
