Invade the World

  Chapter 319 Destiny

  Xu Xiangyang and Zhu Qingyue put on raincoats again and walked out of the hot and humid station.

  On a gloomy rainy day, the crowd hurriedly walked, an open umbrella looked like a lotus flower that was desperately moving, and the overwhelming drops of water fell on the wide leaves, splashing into fog in the blink of an eye.

The square in front of the   hall has become a pond. The tourists are like fishes moving under the endless lotus leaves.

  When Xu Xiangyang stood on the square and looked back, the huge light emitting from under the domed building flickered, like a bonfire standing in the wilderness with flames being blown by the harsh wind.

  The phenomenon of unstable current is still not over;

  Continuing to look into the distance, he found that several houses on the nearby hillside were extinguished like light bulbs.

  In normal times, Xu Xiangyang is of course unlikely to notice this kind of detail, but right now, these minor changes seem to increasingly prove the harbinger of the coming of anomaly.

  More than that, even the highway hovering on the hillside was darkened at that moment, and the signal lights and signs on the road were all immersed in the night.

  On the highway, the anxious horns of vehicles came one after another, from the other side of the hazy rain and fog to the other side across the hill.

  If the situation we have just witnessed can be explained as an electrical accident, the problem now is that not only the train station has an accident, but also the traffic routes that belong to different power supply systems are not spared.

  This is not an accident, but a deliberate...large-scale attack!

  His heart sank.

   "Sunny, how do you feel?"

  The squad leader walked up to him and asked.

"a little cold."

  Xu Xiangyang hugged his arm. Both the body and the heart are chilling.

   "Stupid, I didn't ask you this."

  Zhu Qingyue, on the contrary, returned to her old self-confidence, with a smile on her face.

  Xu Xiangyang understood what she meant. He closed his eyes, as if lost in thought. At the moment when the psychic ability was activated, the tentacles of perception spread rapidly towards the surroundings.

   "...There is no one nearby."

  After that, he opened his eyes to answer.

   "Did you run away?"

  Zhu Qingyue nodded her chin with her finger.

  Xu Xiangyang shook his head and denied it.

   "Actually, I didn't find any signs. Even if I escaped in time, there will still be traces of the power released by the evil spirits."

  After hesitating for a moment, he raised his head and looked into the distance.

   "I just tried to follow the fluctuations of the interference. It has a source, but it's not here. It's more like, uh... it came from a long distance."

   "The channeling can still do this kind of thing."

  Zhu Qingyue sighed and asked:

"where?"

  Xu Xiangyang looked around the night, hesitated and pointed a direction.

   "It seems to come from that place."

  The squad leader glanced, and quickly recognized the location.

   "There is an urban area."

  He nodded, then took a deep breath.

   "If it is really a hand from the city, such a large-scale radio interference... can anyone really do it?"

In Xu Xiangyang’s cognition, the two girls are already the most powerful individuals among the evil spirits manipulated by the two girls as psychic mediums-this is not because he has shallow knowledge and treats them from other psychic mediums they deliberately contacted, including members of official organizations. Judging from the attitude of Lin Zhu, the two of them indeed have a transcendent status.

  But there are psychics that can spread their abilities to such a wide range, which seems to be more powerful than them...?

  "It may be a special evil spirit."

  Sir, the squad leader said.

"Don’t the evil spirits we have met all have various abilities? I can control other evil spirits, and Xingjie can create monsters by drawing people’s inner fears. We met when we were on vacation in Shanyin City. That out-of-control psychic also has very special abilities. Others can control water flow and create strange force fields..."

   "So that's the case. So, the ability of this psychic that suddenly launched an attack is to maximize the radio interference capabilities of ordinary evil spirits, right?"

   "I'm afraid it's not just radio waves."

  The squad leader is serious.

"You should be able to feel it? I felt like being spied by something just now, which made people feel very uncomfortable. I didn't seem to notice the other passengers in the station. So, this is probably for the psychic. Attack."

"Ok."

  The unknown chill...Xu Xiangyang quickly recalled the sudden chill when he was fetching water, like 10,000 locusts crawling on the human body along the trousers, leaving slippery and cold sticky marks on the skin.

"It's still unclear where the opponent is. Maybe it's close to a certain place here, maybe it's the city center. The latter means that the enemy's movement is aimed at the entire city, and it really has the ability to do it. ."

   "Maybe there is more than one person."

   "Yes. The movement at the start is not small, and the next action must be quite ambitious. This will not be an action that can be organized by one person."

   "Then we should contact early..."

  Speaking of this, Xu Xiangyang reacted immediately.

  "Communication has been interrupted."

   "I think this is also the purpose of the other party, so it is said that the situation is dangerous."

  Sir squad leader smiled slightly, and added relievedly.

"However, it does not necessarily have to do with us. Such a big movement, even if no one is in touch, the people in the city will definitely notice it in a short time. When the sky is falling, there will always be a tall one. Your sister knows Doesn’t that Captain Zhou seem quite reliable? And Meng Zheng, they are all adults, professionals, and know better than us what to do."

   "Then we..."

  Xu Xiangyang just wanted to ask a question, but when he found that Qingyue said this, his eyes were always staring into the distance, and he immediately reacted.

  ——"Let’s temporarily abandon our plan to leave Jinjiang City."

  Just when she was about to leave the station, she said so.

  Xu Xiangyang didn’t know exactly what kind of determination Zhu Qingyue had made, so that she wanted to stay with him and flee from home hand in hand to another city without communicating with anyone.

  She doesn't look like a person at all in peacetime.

  But when he was riding a motorcycle on the rainy highway, his arms stretched out from behind tightly wrapped around his waist, and the strength from that palm made Xu Xiangyang understand a fact very clearly:

  Zhu Qingyue is serious.

  Because of the girl’s anxiety and depression, almost all of her emotions are displayed on her face. This mental state that seems too "abnormal" compared to the past...only can explain her seriousness.

  Now, a stronger and more powerful emotion can make her immediately stop this decision and instead want to stay in this city.

"I see."

  Xu Xiangyang nodded vigorously.

  He and the squad leader meet.

  Some things sound as magical as fictional stories in novels or movies, but they are real:

   Between people who have truly established a trusting relationship, even if they don’t communicate through words, a glance can make them clearly understand what is in each other’s hearts.

  Yes, it’s not the time to run away from home, Xu Xiangyang thought, it’s not time to leave everyone else behind for a while.

  Before he could be willful, because after he helped the squad leader settle down in another city, he would definitely return to Jinjiang City.

  Xu Xiangyang chose to act alone in order to take care of Qingyue’s emotions. In fact, he only needs to make a phone call in the middle.

  But now, a guy or a group of guys who didn’t know where they came from and were ill-intentioned, happened to be eyeing this city.

  Others, they can be indifferent, what about Xingjie? And sister Lian, they are still in the city now.

  This is the "now" where no one knows what will happen.

  The more at this moment, the more people need to get together to ensure that people who value it will not be accidental.

  What I want to do is not to make the future me regret...Xu Xiangyang stood on the square and swallowed the wet water vapor down his throat.

   After making up his mind, he waved to the squad leader, and then immediately walked to the place where the motorcycle was parked.

  *

  On the way back, Xu Xiangyang suddenly felt a little regretful.

  In fact, whether or not a person has really changed can be demonstrated in the subtle prescription. Now he felt that the girl sitting in the back seat of the car and the person who eloped with her before were not the same.

  When she came out of the squad leader's house, Qingyue refused to wear a raincoat, and went straight into his clothes; she held his hands tightly and refused to loosen it for a moment.

   is like a child who is going to kindergarten for the first time accompanied by his parents. For fear of being left behind by his parents, he has to hold on to the corners of the adults' clothes.

And now Zhu Qingyue, even though she still doesn't mind making intimate physical contact with him, she also didn't hesitate to take off her raincoat and got into his one, hugging his waist enthusiastically, not caring at all. Let yourself cling to the boy's back--

  But these actions are obviously intentional.

   is a feeling of being more confident, mastering the initiative of the scene, and actively seducing.

  Of course, no matter what kind of attitude is placed on her, it is very cute. But compared with the squad leader in the past, Qingyue tonight rarely exposed her weak side, clinging to the person she likes like an immature child and refusing to let go...

  This kind of attitude is undoubtedly very strange, maybe it is rare to see it for the second time in this life, so he would feel regretful——

"Fool."

  I don’t know if he really saw through what Xu Xiangyang was thinking, the short-haired girl holding his waist murmured for no reason.

After the motorcycle entered the city, the squad leader said:

   "I'm soaked and feel a little uncomfortable. Hurry up and find a place to rest."

   "Okay, I want to change one too."

  Xu Xiangyang nodded.

   "I put a short coat in the car, you can change it later. But the underwear is gone."

   "If you really took a girl's underwear, it would be a genuine pervert."

   "What's the matter..."

  Xu Xiangyang shut up in the middle of speaking.

  Thinking about it carefully, I feel that I, who live with two women, a large and a small, may indeed be a bit dull in this regard.

  After all, the house is not big, regardless of whether the clothes of men and women are dried together, he sometimes helps Xingjie and Sister Lian to wash their underwear... If this is said, I feel that Qingyue will despise it.

  But he really didn't feel anything. So I just find it difficult to understand.

   is just a piece of cloth, which is completely different from the real human body.

  When Xu Xiangyang was thinking wildly, something suddenly occurred to him.

  "You are all sweating, don't you feel uncomfortable if you don't change your underwear?"

   "Huh? Even if it's uncomfortable, I won't change it in front of you, what are you thinking about."

   "I can buy it for you."

   "That would be a waste of time. Let's go back and talk about it."

"But……"

  Xu Xiangyang paused, and his expression became serious.

  "——When you came out, didn’t you say you didn’t wear it?"

The girl behind    choked, suddenly dumbfounded.

   "You guy..."

   "Am I cheated?"

   "Yeah, I was cheated."

  The squad leader straightened up from his seat, grabbed his head from the back, and blew into his neck with a smile.

   "How can you just believe what a girl says? Besides, it's still a bad boy like me."

  "Hey, hey, don't block my eyes...it's dangerous!"

  Xu Xiangyang couldn't control the handlebars, and the motorcycle twisted and turned into an alley.

   "Oh, look, there is no hotel there."

  Xu Xiangyang stepped on the brake.

  This is a small hotel that can be seen everywhere. The neon light poles on both sides of the narrow door are not energized. The door is covered by rain curtains, and there are several bicycles parked nearby.

   "Shall we go open an hourly room?"

  Zhu Qingyue jumped out of the back seat, holding his hand as if walking there. However, Xu Xiangyang obviously has something else to say.

   "It's actually this place."

  He stared at the dim sign hanging from the door beam.

  The girl heard this, and after looking around the surroundings, she suddenly realized that she finally remembered where this place was.

   "Do you still remember."

   "It's impossible to forget."

  After all, it happened a few weeks ago.

  Furthermore, whether it was confessing to Qingyue before this, and breaking up with Xingjie a few days later, it was an unforgettable memory for him.

  On that day, Xu Xiangyang and Zhu Qingyue were dating in the park. There was a heavy rain on the way-the gloomy sky was the same as today, but it was the last torrential rain in late summer.

  Then, they also came here because they wanted to change their clothes and avoid lighting up.

   is this place...

  If there is a real destiny in this world, then it is really an eccentric writer who likes to add leisurely pens to the minutiae.

   "Well, it's destined, let's go in."

  Zhu Qingyue opened the curtain and walked in first.

  Xu Xiangyang thought, “I didn’t expect that the second time I opened a room with a girl would be with Qingyue”, and followed her to the threshold of the hotel.

"……Too dark."

  He couldn't help frowning as soon as he came in.

   "Why don't you turn on the lights?"

  The lobby where guests are entertained is dim and damp. There was no one inside, only the dripping sound from nowhere.

  Several strings of dirty and muddy footprints stretched from the linen in front of the door to the direction of the stairs.
