83. Chapter 83 Passers-By In Anomaly! (2-In-1)
Chapter 83: Anomaly's Bystander! (Two-in-One)
From 2 p.m. in the afternoon until 6 p.m., Lin Xinru finally woke up. However, the moment she woke up, she instinctively tensed up and immediately looked around. It wasn't until she saw Chen Mo by her side that she relaxed.
"Brother Mo, what time is it now?" Lin Xinru asked, rubbing her eyes as she looked outside and saw that it was getting dark.
"It's 6 o'clock. It's time to get up and go out for dinner. I want to buy a car and we can go out to eat," Chen Mo said.
Upon hearing Chen Mo's words, Lin Xinru became curious. "What kind of car do you want to buy?"
"What car do you like? I don't usually drive, so I'll buy one for you to drive," Chen Mo smiled.
"Stop kidding. I just got my driver's license and haven't actually driven a car yet. Aren't you afraid I'll scratch your new car?" Lin Xinru shook her head.
"The car doesn't matter, as long as you don't get hurt," Chen Mo said.
Chen Mo got up with a smile and carried Lin Xinru to the bathroom. The two of them fought another battle in this battlefield, and after freshening up, they prepared to go out.
At this moment, Chen Mo's phone received a message. It was from Mu Xiyue, asking if Chen Mo had any plans for the evening. She was at Zhao Yue's house, helping Zhao Yue prepare dinner, and thought of making more if Chen Mo was coming.
Chen Mo thought for a moment and since they were going out later, he replied saying he wouldn't be going.
Seeing Mu Xiyue's message, Lin Xinru immediately asked, "Brother Mo, is this the senior sister from yesterday?"
"Yes."
"Brother Mo is quite popular," Lin Xinru said with a smile, but she felt a bit inexplicably disappointed in her heart.
Although they had agreed to have freedom in making friends, after experiencing this incident, she didn't know if it was because of the crisis that she developed a bridge effect. It made Lin Xinru have more feelings and dependence on Chen Mo, to the point where she was afraid of losing him.
"Feeling jealous?" Chen Mo heard the change in Lin Xinru's tone and laughed as he patted her buttocks.
"What if I say yes?" Lin Xinru hugged Chen Mo's arm and smiled.
"Then I'll say it's okay. I'll have plenty of vinegar for you in the future," Chen Mo laughed.
"Hmph, I never noticed before, Brother Mo, you're such a playboy," Lin Xinru pinched Chen Mo's arm.
"That depends on the world we're in," Chen Mo said with a faint smile.
The world is almost at its end. At that time, who knows how many people will die globally. It's possible that two-thirds of the population will be lost in an instant.
By then, with the population dwindling, the concept of future reproduction for the sake of humanity will be different from now.
When doomsday comes, Chen Mo doesn't have much confidence or the grand belief to protect the world. According to the system, with the outbreak of the bio-crisis and the descent of the Heavenly Demon star, the crisis faced by humanity is a crisis of the environment, which cannot be changed or resolved. He can only protect a few people.
Lin Xinru didn't catch Chen Mo's meaning and thought that when he mentioned a different world, it was just because his status had changed. He was now connected to the Yellow Robe Society and the Qing Society, belonging to the upper class.
But she didn't have any thoughts about these things. At least for now, Brother Mo still belonged to her.
At Zhao Yue's house, seeing Mu Xiyue's slightly disappointed expression after looking at her phone, Zhao Yue smiled and asked, "Is that kid not coming over for dinner tonight?"
"Well, he said he was going out to buy things with his friends, so they ended up eating outside."
"That's his bad luck," Zhao Yue laughed, "You can't let yourself be distracted from cooking just because that kid didn't come."
"How could that be, Sister Yue," Mu Xiyue immediately smiled.
"Ah, that brat, how did he suddenly feel like he's surrounded by peach blossoms in just a few days? It's Qin Lan, Xiao Yue, Du Zixi, and now this elementary school junior by his side," Zhao Yue looked at Chen Mo and Lin Xinru walking past the window, with a playful expression on her face.
After leaving Mingyuan Community, Chen Mo waited with Lin Xinru at the entrance of the community.
Because he didn't know how to drive, he had already contacted Du Zixi in advance. With someone of Du Zixi's caliber, it would be less likely to encounter any problems.
While he was waiting with Lin Xinru at the entrance of Mingyuan Community.
There were still many vehicles and pedestrians coming and going nearby, and among them was a man wearing a mask who looked weak and was slowly walking towards them from the other side of the road.
At first glance, he was just an ordinary passerby, nothing worth paying attention to.
Lin Xinru didn't think there was anything unusual about him when she saw him.
But Chen Mo could tell at a glance that the man was definitely seriously ill, but he thought he had just randomly encountered a seriously ill passerby.
However, his sense of smell detected something amiss.
As the man approached, the strange smell became stronger and stronger.
If it were an ordinary person, they wouldn't be able to smell the almost imperceptible smell from the other person across the street.
But Chen Mo was different. After integrating the bloodline of a werewolf, his perception ability had greatly increased, and he easily smelled it.
It seemed that this patient was carrying some kind of explosive material.
Why would a seriously ill patient be carrying explosive material?
Chen Mo found it very strange. He immediately activated his X-ray glasses and took a look at the person.
At a glance, he immediately discovered that this guy was carrying a homemade explosive package.
Any normal person would know that this person had a big problem.
How could a decent person carry a homemade explosive package, let alone a seriously ill person?
Chen Mo immediately sensed the danger.
It wasn't that he himself was in danger, but Lin Xinru. If the other person detonated the homemade explosive package next to him, Chen Mo would definitely be unharmed, but Lin Xinru would probably be blown up directly.
But there were many people coming and going nearby, and he couldn't directly attack and kill this person. If he turned and left, that guy might go crazy and rush over, detonating it in advance.
By then, the people around would also suffer.
Many of the people coming and going around here were residents of Mingyuan Community and were somewhat familiar with Chen Mo.
Everyone had a good relationship on weekdays, and Chen Mo didn't want to see them get killed because of him.
He immediately took out the damage resistance talisman he obtained from opening the three-star daily gift package from the system warehouse and handed it to Lin Xinru.
"Brother Mo, what is this?" Lin Xinru curiously looked at the strange talisman in her hand and asked Chen Mo.
"Talisman, the one I asked for before, I forgot to give it to you," Chen Mo said with a faint smile.
"Do you still believe in this?" Although Lin Xinru felt strange, after all, it was Brother Mo who cared about her request. She felt warm in her heart and immediately received the talisman on the back of her phone case.
After giving Lin Xinru the defensive talisman, Chen Mo said to her, "Wait for me here, I'll go take a look."
Just as he finished speaking, a luxury car suddenly drove over, and it was Du Zixi.
At this moment, the person wearing a mask had also approached.
"Chen Mo, why did you think of buying a car?" Du Zixi, who didn't know the situation yet, greeted Chen Mo normally, and then noticed the beautiful girl beside him.
"Zixi, you're here."
Seeing Du Zixi, Chen Mo pretended to greet her and walked towards her, but he was actually calculating the distance between himself and the masked man.
He didn't know what distance this guy would choose to detonate the bomb. Chen Mo immediately took off the A-grade all-purpose protective necklace he was wearing around his neck and handed it to Du Zixi, saying, "I recently got a pendant, do you think it's beautiful?"
Taking the pendant-shaped all-purpose protective shield that Chen Mo took off, Du Zixi felt a bit puzzled. Why did Chen Mo suddenly start talking about pendants with her? But she still carefully observed it.
And in that instant, she suddenly felt a gust of wind pass by.
Chen Mo's figure had already appeared several meters away.
At this moment, Chen Mo's hand wearing the ring had already pressed onto the explosive package of the sickly person, and in the instant Chen Mo had a thought in his mind, the homemade explosive package was directly stored in the ring.
At this moment, the sickly person finally reacted and looked at Chen Mo, who was already within arm's reach, in horror.
"Who sent you?" Chen Mo asked as soon as the words left his mouth, and he activated his mind-reading technique.
Learning that it was Tang Family who paid him to assassinate Chen Mo, Chen Mo couldn't help but sigh. Tang Family really had means, they actually came up with such a ruthless and unpredictable move.
Finding a terminally ill patient and risking their life to assassinate, if his abilities were slightly weaker and he hadn't discovered the abnormality of this person in advance, the chances of this person succeeding in the assassination would still be very high.
Even if his abilities were outstanding and he wasn't afraid of explosions, once there was someone following him, they would also be affected by the bomb and meet a tragic death.
Chen Mo obviously couldn't accept such a situation.
Although Tang Family's main goal hadn't been achieved at the moment, it still made Chen Mo feel pain, and he had taken a small revenge.
Fortunately, Chen Mo now had many life-saving items and the regenerating pill that could revive the dead, so he wasn't too afraid of the people around him being in danger.
But the occurrence of this incident still made him feel very dangerous.
"It seems that I have to pay more attention to seemingly ordinary people around me in the future. Offending these guys, even if it's just an ordinary person, I still have to be more cautious. Why did Tang Family go to such great lengths to deal with me?"
Actually, originally it wouldn't have been necessary. Just interfering in a blind date event, Tang San at most would have found someone to teach him a lesson. With Zhao Yue, who completely controlled the Yellow Robe Society, protecting him from behind, Tang San wouldn't dare to make a move as long as he didn't tear his face with Zhao Yue.
But later, Chen Mo revived Liu Yuanzong and Du Renyuan, which caused a lot of trouble for Tang Family. Tang Family wished to kill him immediately, so naturally they used all means against him.
"Being seriously ill is your misfortune, but it's not an excuse for harming others! I know you want to earn money to provide for your family, but if you sacrifice countless innocent families for the sake of your own family, I will let you know how much your plan has failed! If I see you with such thoughts appearing near me again, I will bury your whole family with you."
"Before I change my mind and send your whole family to heaven, get out of here quickly."
This person is truly a dead man, even under the system's tags, he is just a dead person, killing him won't bring any rewards.
Chen Mo didn't even have the interest to kill him. For someone who is terminally ill and waiting to die, staying alive is the greatest pain.
Chen Mo was just trying to scare him with those words.
Upon hearing Chen Mo's threatening words and realizing that his homemade explosive device was missing, this person was already scared out of his wits and quickly fled.
Chen Mo didn't pay any more attention to him and let him escape, while he himself returned to Du Zixi and Lin Xinru's side.
"Sorry, I saw an acquaintance and chatted for a bit."
Upon hearing Chen Mo's words, both women looked at each other curiously and asked, "Why is he running?"
"I just remembered that I forgot to turn off the gas at home." Chen Mo turned his head and glanced at the man, smiling as he replied.
Upon hearing Chen Mo's words, the two women couldn't help but feel speechless, but they also didn't pay any more attention to the man.
"What is this pendant made of? I can't even tell its material." Du Zixi was even more curious about the pendant that Chen Mo had just placed in her hand.
Chen Mo retracted the all-purpose protective shield and smiled, "After saving a boss, he gave it to me. It looks pretty, so I wanted you to appraise it, but I didn't expect you couldn't tell its material either."
"It's very rare, so it should be a good thing. It can be used as a token of gratitude for saving a life, so it definitely won't be bad." Du Zixi smiled.
After saying that, she looked at Lin Xinru next to Chen Mo and asked, "Who is this?"
"This is my junior sister, Lin Xinru. You can call her Xiao Ru."
"Hello, Xiao Ru. I'm Du Zixi, also a student at the Magic City University. I guess I'm your senior sister."
"Du Zixi?" Upon hearing this surname, Lin Xinru felt a bit familiar.
"This is the daughter of the president of the Qing Society, Du Yuan. Xiao Ru, you should be careful with her." Chen Mo joked.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xinru suddenly realized that Du Zixi was Du Yuan's daughter.
She immediately didn't dare to offend her and bowed, saying, "Hello, Senior Sister Zixi."
"Xiao Ru, you don't have to be so polite. Don't listen to his nonsense. You don't have to worry about my identity." Du Zixi said with a friendly smile.
Seeing that the legendary pearl of the Du Yuan Group, who ruled over the Magic City, was so easy to talk to, Lin Xinru was also a bit surprised.
But she still preferred to get along with people like her, so she smiled and nodded.
"It's getting late. Let's leave early. Xiao Ru, see if there's any place that sells luxury cars suitable for girls like you, and we'll go there."
Upon hearing Chen Mo's words, Lin Xinru, who was sitting in the back seat of Du Zixi's car, couldn't help but look at Chen Mo, who was sitting in the passenger seat.
When they were at home just now, Chen Mo said he would buy a car suitable for her, and she thought he was joking.
Who would have thought he was serious.
Du Zixi smiled and glanced at Chen Mo, saying, "Dr. Chen is really willing to spend money to impress girls."
Chen Mo smiled and said, "Because I don't usually drive much, I'm more used to being driven."
"You really know how to enjoy life. You have the potential to be a boss." Du Zixi laughed.
