long night fire

"Isn't this what you have always wanted to hide? Then, I, who helped you hide the secret of the awakened one, will definitely be punished, or get an evaluation of 'unknown person'."

Seeing Yao being silent for a few seconds, Shang sat down again.

"Now I'm not too afraid of being known by the company as an awakened person, I'm only worried about being transferred from the 'old tone group'." He stated his current thoughts.

Jiang Baimian let out a "hmm":

"Don't worry, you don't need to reveal it for now.

"Your idea gave me a simpler and more perfect method."

"What?" Shang Jianyao asked cooperatively.

Jiang Baimian smiled:

"That is to send an email to every board member, every senior security department, telling the whole thing."

"E-mail?" Shang Jianyao had learned this term in textbooks and practiced it in college.

"Yes." Jiang Baimian nodded, "I will say that my team member Shang Jianyao came to his senses because of Wang Yafei's death and reported the 'Life Sacrifice' sect to me. Then, according to the routine investigation report and According to medical statistics, it was deduced that there were awakened people involved, and it was on the 478th floor, and then, Shang Jianyao determined that the suspect was Xiong Ming through questioning the parties and visiting the site."

Having said that, Jiang Baimian sighed:

"This is the email I'm going to send.

"But if Xiong Ming is caught and confessed to you, your identity as an awakened person will also be exposed. Fortunately, you don't mind too much."

Shang Jian Yao said seriously:

"I didn't tell Xiong Ming that I was an awakened one.

"I'm just saying he has special abilities and I have special abilities too.

"His special ability is that his eyes cannot move, and my special ability is that he has mental problems."

"...Do you think the company will believe that Xiong Ming is so easy to talk to you?" Jiang Baimian covered his forehead.

She got up immediately:

"I'm going back to emailing now.

"You are prepared to be questioned tonight."

Shang Jianyao nodded, said nothing more, and took the elevator back to the 495th floor.

Under the light of street lamps, he arrived at No. 196, Area B, as if taking a walk.

He was about to take out his keys and walk towards the door when he suddenly saw a figure out of the corner of his eye.

Chapter 19 Wrong In and Wrong Out

The figure stood between the doors of No. 188 and No. 190, nearly ten meters away from Shang Jianyao.

He was wearing a dark peaked cap, a blue jacket, black trousers, and a pair of slightly worn leather shoes.

At this moment, the man was standing with his back against the wall, with his hat pulled down so low that his eyes were almost covered.

The shadow cast by the brim of the hat stretched down, covering the entire face, so that Shang Jianyao could only see clearly the thin silver-black metal tube in the opponent's mouth.

This thin metal tube is only a finger long, like some kind of substitute for the humble cigarette.

Seeing that Yao's heart moved, Shang gave up trying to pick out the key, bent his knees slightly, exerted force on his waist and abdomen, and instantly entered a state of ready to go.

At this moment, his eyes suddenly went dark.

It wasn't that he fainted, but that the light around him seemed to be sucked away by something.

Not only that, but he couldn't hear a sound in his ears.

Shang Jianyao's current state seems to have returned to the "Sea of ​​Origin", the first "island" he encountered.

Complete darkness, complete silence, and no companions except myself.

The familiar fear gushed out from the bottom of his heart again, making him tremble slightly.

Yue Qifan, who was standing against the wall, immediately stood up straight and turned around.

He raised his head quickly, aiming the thin silver-black metal tube in his mouth at Shang Jianyao.

This is a dart.

Unlike the simple blowing arrows made of trees by wanderers in the wilderness on the surface, this has a relatively complex mechanical structure, driven by springs and mechanisms, so it is not one or two meters long, has high concealment, and does not need to actually blow air , press the tongue firmly against the button to launch.

In a sense, this can't be called a blowgun, because it can be used with fingers.

Its real name is "Dark Arrow".

The reason why Yue Qifan used the most inconvenient mouth and tongue was because the holy master had told him that the target had the ability of an awakened person to make his hands unable to move.

That being the case, he didn't use his hands.

At the same time, he also knows the characteristics of the target's other two awakened abilities:

One is similar to "hypnosis", but there must be dialogue, and the range of effect is very small. One can make people do some irrational behavior, and the effect takes effect at a distance of four to eight meters.

Based on this information, Yue Qifan strictly controlled the distance between the two parties.

He is currently close to ten meters away from Shang Jianyao's room, putting himself out of the effective range of the two Awakened abilities of "dialogue hypnosis" and "irrational behavior", while the one that "affects the movement of both hands" relies on "blowing arrows". " to circumvent - each room here is two meters wide, so the distance can be easily calculated.

The reason why he didn't choose a place farther away was because among his three Awakened abilities, "Fantasy Journey", which had the largest coverage, could affect humans no more than 11 meters away.

Yue Qifan's plan is:

At the most suitable distance, use the "Dream Journey" first, which is the ability to stimulate certain memories of the other party and produce certain real hallucinations, so that Shang Jianyao falls into one of the states of fear, confusion, and dementia, thereby temporarily controlling him.

Then, blow out a small arrow, anesthetize the opponent, drag him into room 196, and methodically use the "fragment memory erasure" Awakened ability to flip through the memory and erase all clues.

This was the best plan Yue Qifan came up with based on his own abilities and the items at hand. After all, the incident happened in a hurry, and the order from the Saint Master came too fast and suddenly, leaving him no time to make additional preparations.

As for why he keeps "blowing arrows" all the time, it's because he relies on this to restrain the price he pays to a certain extent.

In fact, Yue Qifan felt a little strange in his heart. In his opinion, it is better to leave this matter to Xiong Ming. A "cardiac arrest" is simply an excellent ability to kill people and destroy clues.

Maybe it's because the saints don't want to cause more deaths, and they are afraid of attracting special attention from the company's top management, so they use me, an awakener who can erase memories... Yue Qifan's thoughts flashed, predicting what might happen after Shang Jianyao wakes up in time. Dodging the direction, he pressed his tongue against the mechanism at the bottom of the "Blow Arrow".

At this moment, Shang Jianyao, whose body was slightly bent and trembling slightly, suddenly laughed:

"What a weak ability."

At this moment, Yue Qifan was a little stunned:

"Why is he talking?

"At this time, even if you are not affected enough by the 'Fantasy Journey' and regain your senses in time, you should dodge to the side or roll on the spot to avoid the next attack...

"Why would he waste such precious time talking?

"That's not how a normal person should react.

"Damn, why is he talking!"

As soon as Yue Qifan's tongue touched the switch of "Blowing Arrow", he lost his follow-up action before he had time to exert force.

He opened his mouth with sweat on his forehead, and responded uncontrollably:

"How can you be called weak?"

In the sound of Dang, the thin silver-black metal tube fell to the ground and jumped a few times.

But Yue Qifan's words did not stop because of this:

"It will induce some of your memories and immerse you in a certain scene in the past.

"If it is properly designed, the links are closely linked, and it can even make you unable to distinguish between the real and the fake."

Shang Jian Yao was taken aback when he heard that:

"Why are you responding to my taunt?

"I'm just out of my mind."

Before Yue Qifan could speak, he suddenly understood, laughed and said:

"The price you pay is that no matter what other people say, you have to respond?"

"Do you think it's that simple?" Yue Qifan "tit for tat".

A thick layer of sweat was dripping from his forehead.

The price he paid at the beginning was "self-discipline".

But in fact, the price is not so serious, Yue Qifan just lacks self-discipline in one aspect.

That aspect is called "debate."

As long as someone starts a topic, he can't help arguing and arguing.

Sometimes, even if he agrees with the other party's point of view, he can't help but grasp one or two small details and forcefully argue.

He didn't think there was any problem with this at first, otherwise he wouldn't have paid for "self-discipline" at the beginning, but as time went by, he found that the price was very dangerous.

After all, it's not always the right time to engage in dialogue and debate.

In an emergency, life and death could be decided within a second or two, and if you think about debating, you think you didn't die fast enough, and it would also make Yue Qifan's popularity worse.

For this reason, he ordered this thin metal tube through the church.

As long as he holds it in his mouth and reminds himself constantly, Yue Qifan can control himself to a certain extent.

And when you need to do covert actions, this "blowing dart" can be used as a weapon.

Of course, the price cannot be completely avoided, Yue Qifan can only guarantee that as long as others don't talk about topics related to him, he can barely keep his mouth shut.

The operation he designed undoubtedly did not give the target a chance to speak.

He also believes that no human being can speak first without dodging or fighting back when faced with danger.

Who knew that today he would meet such a strange creature.

And this weirdo is still mocking him.

How can this be tolerated?

At this time, facing Yue Qifan's rhetorical question, Shang Jianyao made a second round of responses.

"Could it be your price to be stubborn?" While Shang Jianyao was speaking, his ankles, knees, and back exerted strength at the same time, and he pounced on Yue Qifan like a beast.

He wants to close the distance between the two sides.

Suddenly, Shang Jianyao felt that his body lost his balance in an instant.

For him, similar actions are a piece of cake, and there will be no mistakes in a hundred times.

Unexpectedly, today he lost his balance in mid-air inexplicably.

boom!

Shang Jian Yao fell to the ground.

"Truth doesn't need words." Yue Qifan took out another "back arrow" from his pocket.

He prepared more than one weapon!

While speaking, Yue Qifan pressed the mechanism with a smile.

His third Awakened ability is:

"Balance Disorder"!

The effective range is six meters.

Shang Jian Yao rushed over like this, hitting his arms.

Of course, he didn't want such a development at first, because at this distance, the target's awakener ability can also play a role.

Fortunately, this change is very beneficial to him.

With a whoosh, a small metal arrow shot out and went straight to Shang Jianyao on the ground.

Shang Jian Yao only had time to change his position slightly, avoiding the vital parts of his head.

puff!

The small metal arrow was inserted from his left shoulder to his chest.

Shang Jianyao immediately straightened up and stood up, showing no signs of being paralyzed.
