Forced to take the love route by a scumbag villain
Chapter 79 Chapter 79
Meng Xing flipped through the call records and found that the dozen or so calls showed a certain pattern, basically one every five minutes.
上一个来电时间是22:45,而现在是...孟醒看着手机右上角的时间显示,22:49,分钟在他眼前跳了一下,变成了22:50,同时,温如岚新的电话来了。
Meng Xing pressed answer, and Wen Rulan's irritable voice sounded through the receiver: "Where are you?"
"I'm..." Meng Xing looked around. He was on the road, and vehicles with their headlights on kept passing by him. But he didn't know the specific name of the road, but he quickly I found the road sign and got the answer: "On Zhonggu Road."
"What are you doing there?" Wen Rulan frowned, her irritable voice filled with doubts.
This is a long story. Meng Xing was thinking about his words, preparing to tell Wen Rulan about his findings tonight.
But during this brewing gap, Wen Rulan, who couldn't wait for an answer, asked her third question: "Why don't you answer my call?"
Meng Xing was interrupted from thinking, and the explanation in his mouth also changed from the previous question to the next: "Because I turned off my phone."
"Why shut down the phone?" Wen Rulan asked one question after another, even a little aggressive.
Meng Xing wanted to explain honestly, but he suddenly came back to his senses. Why did Wen Rulan ask this question as if the wife was checking on her husband who had not returned home at night? They are not husband and wife. Should he report to Wen Rulan where he goes and whether his cell phone is turned off or not?
Wen Rulan also realized that her questions and tone were not right. But there was nothing he could do. Although Meng Xing asked Wu Jin to tell him that he didn't have to wait, Meng Xing disappeared from his sight and he didn't know where he went. Wen Rulan couldn't stop being anxious, and he even hit him ten times. After several unanswered calls, once Meng Xing was contacted, the anxiety that had been growing during this period of loss of contact naturally burst out.
But he also realized his gaffe in time and adjusted his emotions. When Meng Xing said, "I'll tell you when I get back," he suppressed his anxiety and said, "Yeah."
At 23:23, Meng Xing returned to Wen Rulan’s villa.
Wen Rulan was sitting upright on the sofa waiting for him, but the ferret was already squatting at the door. As soon as Meng Xing opened the door, he nimbly ran up to Meng Xing's shoulder, and then put his nose on Meng Xing's neck and sniffed. It's like smelling someone else's perfume.
Of course there is none, and the ferret transformed by mental power has no sense of smell.
But Wen Rulan was there. Meng Xing sat down on the sofa next to him. He didn't smell any particularly pungent perfume, nor did he notice anything unusual about Meng Xing.
Meng Xing should be doing business. Wen Rulan had actually known this for a long time, but in a secret corner of his heart, there was a kind of panic, worried that Meng Xing would leave him.
Seeing Meng Xing come back at this moment, he could finally let go. His sitting posture changed along with his mood. He no longer sat upright, but relaxed his body and leaned on the sofa.
He didn't ask any questions, but Meng Xing eagerly took the initiative to reveal what he had discovered after sneaking into Jian Wenhong's office tonight.
He said that Jian Wenhong was Cheng Peng's accomplice, and also talked about Jian Wenhong's motives and what he was planning to do in the showdown with Cheng Peng on August 8.
However, Meng Xing didn't know what kind of tricks were used. He still looked annoyed when he said it now: "If Jian Wenhong came in a little later, I could see what kind of cooperation that Qiongyu Technology Company had with him. "
Or maybe Jian Wenhong didn't take the document away in the end, but unfortunately, Meng Xing caught up with these two small-probability incidents, so that he was now confused about Cheng Peng's plan.
Wen Rulan went over Meng Xing's words in her mind. He pondered for a moment and said comfortingly: "It's not urgent. As long as they act, they will be exposed. Now that they know it is Jian Wenhong, it will be much easier to investigate. I can concentrate my efforts to investigate him." .”
Meng Xing nodded: "Then I'll leave it to you."
This topic came to an end for the time being, and Wen Rulan turned to talk about something she had encountered: "By the way, that Wu Jin..."
Wen Rulan couldn't help but frowned when she mentioned the name: "Do you think he's a little strange?"
Meng Xing was stunned for a moment. In fact, he had always thought Wu Jin was quite strange. Even though Wu Jin had been showing kindness to his side and every move seemed to be helping them, Meng Xing still had lingering doubts about Wu Jin.
However, this may be his one-sided prejudice, because when he first met Wu Jin, the snowflake screen in the system for a moment made him preconceptions that there was something wrong with the other party. However, Wen Rulan thought so too, so it seemed that it was not his prejudice.
"What do you think is strange about him?" Meng Xing asked.
"His attitude towards me... is a little too enthusiastic." Wen Rulan considered it and said: "He called you earlier to remind you that Cheng Peng was tampering with the bionic robot, and tonight he told you where Cheng Peng's funds were going. The purpose was In order for me to take precautions in advance and successfully win the duel on August 8, what is he trying to do?"
Wu Jin is Cheng Peng's assistant, and it is most beneficial to him if Cheng Peng takes over. Why would he do this to help his opponent just because of his admiration for Wen Rulan? To be honest, Wen Rulan didn't quite believe this statement.
Meng Xing actually thought so too, but... "He behaved normally in front of me. I couldn't find any flaws in his lying. Either he was too good at pretending, or what he said was true."
"Anyway, what he wants to do probably has something to do with the showdown on August 8. Let's just be on guard against him and see if he is a human or a ghost." Meng Xing suggested.
It can only be this way. Wen Rulan nodded. Whether Wu Jin has any problems is just a guess, but it is inevitable that Cheng Peng and Jian Wenhong will attack him, so his current energy should be focused on dealing with these two people. Regarding Wu Jin, one should be on guard, but there is no need to spend a lot of time investigating.
A consensus was reached and it was midnight. After the conversation, the two went back to their rooms to rest.
As for the investigation of Jian Wenhong, Wen Rulan also gave instructions before going to bed. It's just that Jian Wenhong, an old fox, has really hidden deep enough. Not even Wen Rulan's intelligence network can find out his movements for a while.
On August 8, the subordinates Wen Rulan sent out found nothing.
However, no matter how cunning a fox is, he is also afraid of a patient hunter. After staying on guard for nearly two days, on the evening of August 8, Wen Rulan received news from his subordinates, and he immediately told Meng Xing the news.
"Mental power directional interference device?" Meng Xing read the name.
Wen Rulan nodded and attached an explanation: "Unlike traditional mental power interference devices, the biggest feature of this mental power directional interference device is orientation. It can extract specific mental power bands and interfere with those that do not conform to this band. People will not notice the slightest abnormality."
This is an unheard-of device, but Qiongyu Technology Company, a company that specializes in the application of mental power, has been developing the mental power band for a long time. They have also had ideas for this directional device, but they have never had enough funds to actually develop it.
But after Cheng Peng invested a lot of money, they turned the idea into reality in a short period of time and actually developed such a directional jamming device.
There is no need to think about who this device will be used on, it must be Wen Rulan.
The venue for tomorrow's duel will be at the Big Bell Tower, and Jian Wenhong secretly ordered this mental interference device to be transported into the Big Bell Tower this afternoon.
This device is not small in size, almost the size of a piano. It is not easy to hide it. But that is for others. For the Speaker of the Parliament, Jian Wenhong wants to hide such a machine in the big clock tower. Disaster.
According to the information reported by Wen Rulan's subordinates, Jian Wenhong hid the machine in a warehouse on the second underground floor. The duel was held on the first underground floor, and the distance of one floor could not affect the interference effect of this device.
As long as the duel is activated for just a short moment, Wen Rulan's mental power will be disturbed. Even if the time is short, in such a peak duel, one second can already decide a lot of things.
As for this brief moment of abnormality, not to mention that other viewers could not notice it, perhaps even Wen Rulan herself would not realize that she was disturbed by internal and external forces, and thought that she was performing abnormally. The plan was perfect.
Wen Rulan frowned after explaining to Meng Xing. Although he now knew about the directional interference device and Cheng Peng and Jian Wenhong's plan, he had not yet figured out how to deal with it.
Directly exposing the other party's conspiracy is a bad idea, because with Jian Wenhong's methods and connections, Wen Rulan may not be able to obtain irrefutable evidence for the other party. If he makes a groundless statement, Jian Wenhong will only secretly transfer the device and try another way. , unable to shake Jian Wenhong's status at all.
Moreover, this is to scare the snake away, and it will be difficult to catch the other party's heel.
The best way is to use the trick, pretend not to know the opponent's plan, and then take the opportunity to kill the opponent when the opponent activates the device but it doesn't work, and is confused. As long as he wins tomorrow's showdown, Wen Rulan can take the position of leader of the spiritual power users. It's a foregone conclusion.
But how to make the other party's device ineffective was a bit difficult for Wen Rulan. He had no experience in dealing with this brand-new technological product that was not available on the market.
His dignity was reflected on his face. Meng Xing guessed a little bit of Wen Rulan's thoughts, and he couldn't help but grin.
Wen Rulan had no choice but he could.
"Look!" Meng Xing raised the card in his hand in front of Wen Rulan.
"This is..." Wen Rulan was stunned.
"I drew a new SR card yesterday." Meng Xing was very proud. As soon as the three-day anti-addiction period passed, he returned to the business of drawing cards. This time it was not as cool as before. He had reached the upper limit and could only draw An SR arrived, which is the one in his hand.
"Rebound card, lasts for three seconds. During this period, all damage received by oneself will be reflected back, and the same effect will be applied to the enemy target." Meng Xing read the explanation of the card.
The more he thought about it, the brighter his smile became. This was another card that he didn't know how to use, but it seemed that every useless card would be used just right in the end, just like the Xuan Ming Po Yue in the previous dream. The same flag.
Maybe this is another level of European energy? Just think of it as European energy. Meng Xing didn't think much about it.
As long as Meng Xing activates this rebound card while Cheng Peng and Jian Wenhong activate the directional jamming device, the person whose mental power is disturbed will become Cheng Peng. Wen Rulan can seize this moment of opportunity to directly kill the opponent and win the game. victory.
By the way, these two people can also experience what it means to shoot oneself in the foot, which can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
Meng Xing told Wen Rulan his thoughts in detail. He felt that his plan was sound and Wen Rulan could almost win.
But after Wen Rulan heard this, the worry in his brows did not diminish much. However, he did not refute Meng Xing's plan. He just nodded and said, "That's it."
With that said, he went upstairs alone.
If he had just behaved like this and had a heart as big as Meng Xing's, he probably wouldn't have noticed anything unusual, but he always wished that the ferret bound to Meng Xing's body actually jumped off his shoulders and followed its owner back. Room.
In the past few days, the ferret has been a burden that he tried to get rid of but couldn't get rid of. But now, the ferret suddenly left on his own, and Meng Xing was not used to it.
He sat there and hesitated for a moment, then followed him upstairs, but not back to his room. "Knock knock" twice, Meng Xing knocked on Wen Rulan's door.
There was no answer from the door, nor did Meng Xing hear Wen Rulan's footsteps. The door opened a crack by itself, and the ferret poked its head out of the crack and looked up at Meng Xing.
The crack in the door opened by the ferret was very small, just enough for its slender body to poke its head out. Meng Xing could not even get in through the crack, even if he looked at Wen Rulan through this crack.
This was actually a subtle rejection. Wen Rulan didn't want Meng Xing to come in. He wanted to be alone, but deep down in his heart he actually expected the other party to come over, so Ferret opened such a small crack in the door.
Meng Xing couldn't guess Wen Rulan's complicated and contradictory thoughts, but his approach was relatively simple and crude, so he decided to ask Wen Rulan directly.
So he squatted down, picked up the ferret, and then forcefully pushed the narrow door open until he could fit in.
