Invade the World

   Chapter 351 Always be the best sister

  Xu Xiangyang ran out of the door, spanned the entire corridor, and knocked on the doors of the two suites next door.

   No answer.

   After one night, neither Lin Xingjie nor Zhu Qingyue were in the room.

   After standing for a while, he immediately packed his luggage and ran to the elevator.

  The elevator traveled through the building, it was still early, and few guests took it, but there were a few cleaning aunties and waiters in the hotel chatting inside.

   "It's really foggy today."

   "Yes, I saw the weather forecast last night said it was a sunny day today."

   "Did you find it? I went out for a walk just now and saw a lot of small black spots in the sky."

   "Is it an airplane?"

   "It's not the planes, they're always hovering over our heads, how come we have so many planes all at once."

   "That's the kite or Kongming lanterns flying in the park next door. There may be a festival today."

   "Oh, why don't you believe me when I tell you. I think it's like the one I saw in the newspaper before. I heard that many people abroad have seen it. What's it called U...UO?"

   "UFO, it's a flying saucer."

   "Yes! Yes, yes, flying saucers, my kids talk about this all day long."

   "Isn't that sent by aliens?"

   "Maybe aliens did it."

   "I think the cloud today is a bit strange, it feels like it's been staring at me..."

   "Cloud staring at you? Are you drowsy?"

   "Really! I always feel like there is something hiding in the clouds in the sky, watching me all the time!"

  Xu Xiangyang listened beside him, and remained silent without saying a word, but there was cold sweat on his forehead.

  —Now, Xiao An has become visible to ordinary people? !

   He double-checked that the people in the elevator were indeed not from Long Po, not the psychic medium he saw yesterday. They were all wearing uniforms, and they were really ordinary hotel staff.

  What happened?

  Xu Xiangyang thought for a while, and pressed the indicator light of one of the floors on the key board.

   When we separated yesterday, Luang Po said that he lived in that place, which meant that if there was any accident, he could contact her proactively.

  …

"Ding."

  The elevator door opened slowly.

  Xu Xiangyang couldn't wait to get out of the elevator, but what he saw looked like a hotel corridor full of chaos after being hit by a tornado, and a panicked shout from the hotel attendant came from behind.

  —and an unexpected face.

   "Sister Lian?"

   Standing beside the sofa and table that turned over, a young woman in a police uniform with a long ponytail turned around. She was surprised and then turned into a happy smile.

   "Xiangyang, I found you."

  *

  Li Qinglian explained to the hotel staff in the elevator that the place had been blocked by the police for investigation. These people just nodded their heads desperately, and then took the elevator down, wondering if they understood.

  Xu Xiangyang looked around. In addition to Sister Lian, there are more than a dozen people scattered in the corridor. Some were wearing police uniforms, some were wearing casual clothes, and he didn't know them. The only thing that was certain was that these people were not Luang Po's subordinates, nor did they look like people from the Star Watching Club.

   One of them came over, noticed the existence of Xu Xiangyang, and immediately looked at Li Qinglian.

   "This classmate is..."

   "Well, he is Xu Xiangyang, my brother."

   Li Qinglian's proud tone when introducing him was like taking him out on a blind date.

   "...Okay." The other party was obviously relieved, and then whispered into the walkie-talkie, "Target c has been secured."

  Xu Xiangyang watched the person leave and couldn't help asking:

"What exactly is going on?"

   "Good question, we don't know either." Elder Sister shrugged, "This is what we saw when we arrived here."

  Xu Xiangyang frowned.

He remembered that the people living on this floor were all from Long Po and the Star Watching Club, who would be so unscrupulous in the city center... Xu Xiangyang soon had a guess in his heart: Could it be that Meng Zheng brought people to Huojian? right?

   He is very concerned about Xingjie, and the level of attention he shows in his speech is crazy. When the dominance of action is taken away by Long Po, and he can't even get close to Xingjie, it is not surprising that this guy does anything.

   The whispered conversation between the serious-looking men next to him seemed to confirm his guess:

   "Maybe infighting."

   "Infighting?"

   "Hmm. The two bodies on the other side of the bathroom...both from the Stargazers on file. But their deaths happened at the same time, and their wounds were caused by bullets from each other's guns."

"Yes."

   "Maybe this group of people is fighting for something."

   "Well. Report it to your head in time."

"-Hey."

  Xu Xiangyang was pricking up his ears to eavesdrop when he suddenly felt a light tap on his shoulder.

   "Don't you have anything to explain to my sister?"

  Li Qinglian said, and hugged his shoulders affectionately again and again. The relaxed smile on her face was somewhat out of tune with the current environment, so Xu Xiangyang's attention had to be shifted from other people to his sister.

   Seeing that Sister Lian seemed to be smiling a little maliciously, he hesitated for a moment.

   "...I want to ask my sister, why are you here?"

   "There was a massive explosion in a hotel in the city center. Is there anything wrong with me coming here as a detective?"

   Li Qinglian asked back, but seeing that her younger brother was still frowning, she couldn't help shaking her head.

   "Don't worry so much, isn't it so bad to let my sister know the secret? Or do you really think you and those two girls want to hide something that I didn't notice before?"

   Now, Xu Xiangyang is no longer nervous about this topic, let alone any surprise - perhaps in his heart, he actually had a faint premonition that this day would eventually come. As a result, the boy's shoulders suddenly relaxed.

   "...I didn't actually think about hiding it from you all the time."

   "Oh, you are quite cunning. When you come up, you want to put aside your responsibility?"

"It's true." He said, "At first, I thought it was very dangerous, haunted, monsters, we don't know who can deal with such supernatural things, for fear of involving people around us and hurting them, so I didn't tell anyone. Later, I got on the line with the official organization, and I felt that there was no difference between saying it and not saying it..."

   "So you'd rather keep the secret in your own heart. You're not afraid of worrying me?"

The elder sister's voice contained real dissatisfaction and anger. The arm hanging around Xu Xiangyang's neck began to tighten slowly until his face flushed, but he still pursed his mouth and said nothing. Li Qinglian snorted lightly. , let go of the arm as punishment.

   "Hey, how could I raise such a boring radish head like you."

   The woman sighed and put down her hand. Xu Xiangyang turned his head and whispered "I'm sorry".

   "Okay, I didn't blame you... At least I don't blame you now. Because for you, there are more important things right now?"

"Yes!"

  Xu Xiangyang nodded vigorously.

   After getting a positive answer, Li Qinglian grabbed his arm without saying a word, and the two of them walked to a corner that was not easy to attract attention. Her sharp eyes looked around, and then she spoke in a deep voice.

   "Let me briefly talk about my side of things first. Some time ago, I got on the line with the local department head, who is the person in charge of the psychic. This person seems to know you."

"Just yesterday, when I came back, I found that both you and Xingjie were missing, and there was a dead person in Ms. Lin's house. I took a look at the corpse, and it didn't look like a human being at all. When I realized that the situation was wrong, I immediately talked to that person. Captain Zhou contacted. He quickly promised to send a rescue team to search for you, here, the group of people who came with me."

  Li Qinglian said a lot of words like a cannonball, and then stared at the boy's eyes with awe.

"...But I haven't told them all about you. According to my observation, the main purpose of their visit this time is to find out the whereabouts of a group of terrorists. This matter will have some consequences for you or Xingjie. Any bad influence?"

  Xu Xiangyang was stunned for a moment.

He finally realized why Sister Lian was pulling him over to whisper under the eyes of others, because she was worried that the two children in her family had already had some kind of intersection with the opposite organization, and calling the government over would only harm herself. so…

   Remembering that her sister has always been a conscientious people's policeman, Xu Xiangyang's eyes warmed slightly, he couldn't help lowering his head, and at the same time shook his head vigorously.

   "No, my sister did the right thing, we are the victims."

   He soon explained the process of stargazing to Xingjie and everything they did.

"...So it is." Li Qinglian nodded, "That's fine, as long as we leave together. By the way, what about Xingjie and Qingyue? You said that Xingjie is valued by them, why are they both gone now? "

"I have no idea."

  Xu Xiangyang's tone was heavy.

   "But I'll get them back. Plus, it's—"

   He and Li Qinglian looked at each other.

   "Sister Lian, you are a psychic, right?"

   "Huh? That's right... That's right."

   "What is 'it'," Xu Xiangyang said helplessly, "In short, you can see those monsters floating in the sky, right?"

  Li Qinglian quickly reacted.

   "You mean, those things are related to the two of them?"

   "Well, that whale-shaped monster, we call it Xiao An, was originally an evil spirit controlled by Xingjie. Now..."

   Sister Lian stroked her chin, seemingly lost in thought. Just when Xu Xiangyang felt uneasy, she suddenly asked seriously:

   "Xiaojie is actually so powerful. Just like this, how dare you not know about other girls? Are you afraid of being beaten to death?"

  “…”

  Xu Xiangyang grabbed his forehead and couldn't help sighing.

   "Sister Lian, I'm talking about business."

   "I'm very serious! As for the reason why you and Xiaozhu haven't been beaten to death by Xingjie, I think the only possibility is that the one over there is better at fighting."

   The guess is pretty accurate.

   "Can't I be better at fighting?"

  Xu Xiangyang was a little unconvinced.

"You?"

  Li Qinglian's eyes swept up and down his face.

   "Not like."

  “…”

   "Anyway, Xiao Zhu is really amazing, isn't he?"

   "Yes, she's amazing."

   "Then you should find her earlier, and then find Xingjie together."

   "That's what I thought."

"very good."

  Li Qinglian nodded slightly. She raised her head and looked at the ceiling above her. After the chandelier that had been hanging there fell, there was a large hole left, and the dark whale swam leisurely through the hole.

   "...Xiangyang, I may not be able to help you much in this matter."

   Hearing that there seemed to be a hint of disappointment in the tone of the elder sister, Xu Xiangyang thought about it and said:

   "Not necessarily."

   "Don't say such things to comfort me." Li Qinglian showed dissatisfaction, "I'm not that vulnerable yet."

   "It's not consolation, I really have something I hope my sister can help."

"what?"

   "I'll go downstairs with the two of them later, I hope you can pick us up."

   "You're not going to follow them?"

  Li Qinglian raised her chin and gestured to the dozen or so people who came to support her.

   "It's too slow. Sister Lian, you just said that they have their own goals, and they don't necessarily listen to me."

  Xu Xiangyang had thought about it, but the current situation did not allow it. Apart from the time issue, he doesn't know the current situation of Xingjie, and he doesn't know how to solve the current abnormal situation in the city. If we act together... Maybe there will be differences of opinion at that time.

   "The only person I can count on is you, my sister."

  Li Qinglian narrowed her eyes. Once again, as if realizing what kind of child he was for the first time, she scrutinized her brother's face carefully.

   "So, you're pretty confident that you can get them back."

"Ok."

  Xu Xiangyang nodded vigorously.

   "I'm not going to let us separate. Now, I've found that's what I do best... So, I'll do it."

   "Okay, I promise you."

  Li Qinglian no longer hesitated.

"…thanks."

"no need to thank me."

   She shook her head gently, raised her palm to gently stroke her brother's face, and said in a low voice:

   "Xiangyang, I have always wanted to be a good sister. So I think the so-called 'good parent' is to let go when it's time to let go and let the children make their own decisions, right?"

   "Even if there is no such thing as today, you are still the best sister in the world." Xu Xiangyang grabbed her sister's hand and said with a smile, "Whether it is for me or Xingjie."

   "Stop flattering and go do your own work. I'll deal with the people here."

  Li Qinglian put down her hand, kicked his kneecap jokingly, then turned and left gracefully.

  …

   After Xu Xiangyang watched his sister's back go away, he took a deep breath, smiled, closed his eyes, and expanded his psychic ability to the maximum in the shortest time.

   He heard a startled noise from someone in the distance, and seemed to be aware of the sudden fluctuation. But he was no longer in the mood to hide, and the spreading tentacles of consciousness quickly covered the entire building, eroding every living body with unprecedented brutality and toughness.

   He liberated all his brain power and used psychic without hesitation for the first time.

  Expanding, expanding, expanding, like a king who has opened up new territories.

   At that moment, the entire hotel building—no, the psychics within a radius of dozens of kilometers, all felt a high gaze passing over him.

  Xu Xiangyang squinted his eyes and quickly caught the most familiar aura, so he ran in that direction.
