When an Alien Is Bound to a World-Saving System

Chapter 62 The Mortal Enemy in the Shadows

There was no sound around, although the wall clock showed 12:[-] in the night, which should be a quiet time, but it was not normal.For Xiaoyi, even the slightest sound can be caught by his sensitive ears. The sound of water pipes in the middle of the night, the footsteps of patrolling security guards, and even the light snores of passengers in the guest rooms on both sides of the corridor should have been along the floor at this time. And the air formed a low-decibel symphony in the teenager's ears.But now, Xiaoyi didn't hear anything.

The young man didn't dare to release the black silk rashly to test, but walked through the corridor by himself, walked outside Huo Li's room, knocked on the door and shouted: "Huo Li! Huo Li!"

However, there was no answer from inside the room, only the sound of the boy knocking on the door echoed in the empty corridor.The boy tried hard to break the doorknob, but the door was locked and could not be opened at all. The boy raised his voice and shouted: "Huo Li, are you inside?"

Still no response.The boy wanted to take out a pistol from the system space, but he couldn't!Although the items in the space have severed their connection with him, Xiaoyi feels that he can still take out the black silk from it, but he can't manipulate them to synthesize organic matter in the space as usual, and the whole 12 tons of black silk is like Paralyzed man's numb leg.

Maybe after taking them out the connection can be re-established?But the boy didn't dare to act rashly, instead he turned around and untied a short piece of iron wire used to fix the shape from the branch of the bonsai in the corridor, and began to violently pick the lock.After a while, the young man who had no experience in lockpicking opened the door lock with a click after leaving a bunch of messy scratches.The young man gently twisted the doorknob, pushed the door open and entered, but there was no one in the room.

Xiao Yi didn't turn on the light, because he could clearly see that there was no one on the bed in the middle of the room through the dim cold light in the corridor, and it was impossible for Huo Li to go to the bathroom in the dark without making a sound during this time period.The boy walked to Huo Li's bed and looked at the sunken pillow and scattered quilt, but what about others?

Xiaoyi walked out of Huo Li's room slowly, and didn't pick the locks one by one. He just made such a big noise, if someone was in the room, he should have come out to find out.But until now, every room in the entire corridor is still closed.

Xiaoyi didn't dare to take the elevator, but ran down the stairs to the hotel lobby, but there was no one there, and the front desk and security guards on duty seemed to have disappeared without the boy noticing.But the red number displayed on the clock in the hall has changed: 00:47

17 minutes passed.

At this time, a slight vibration reached the boy's ears, it was a car!There are cars driving down the street!Xiaoyi hurriedly ran to the street, but the boy was not sure whether the cameras in the whole city were shooting, so he didn't dare to change into a strange shape rashly. When the boy in short-sleeved shorts ran to the side of the street, the car had already disappeared .

Xiaoyi stood by the side of the street and looked at the empty night sky, what's wrong?Is the whole neighborhood stuck in a vicious circle?Is it possible to run out of this area by following a normal car?

Xiaoyi just stood quietly by the side of the street, trying to catch the slightest vibration around her.The teenager felt that he had been waiting for about 20 or 30 minutes, when the sound of another car driving finally came again.The boy looked to the end of the road on the left and waited. After a while, a silver-gray car finally drove over!

Before the boy could be happy to be finally connected to the normal world, his hanging heart fell to the bottom again: there was no one in the compartment of the silver-gray car!

And the young man could clearly see that the steering wheel in the cab was being controlled by an invisible hand, turning slightly from time to time to adjust the direction.Xiaoyi suppressed the faint uneasiness in his heart, and when the car whizzed past him, the boy jumped up, firmly grasped the roof of the car with both hands and hung it on the side of the car.Then he slammed his knee through the co-pilot's window, curled his legs slightly, and slid into the car.

Sitting in the seat of this unmanned car, the boy turned his head to look at the driver's seat next to him. He stepped on the accelerator and even stepped on the brake occasionally. The whole car was no different from a car driven by the driver on the road. Except... no one!

The boy sat quietly in the car, picked up a piece of broken glass with his right hand without looking for any traces, stroked lightly on the tender skin on the inner side of his arm, and then put the glass into the pocket of his pajama pants.

Then I looked at the surrounding streets from the car window. There are very few stores open all day on the street and the lights are on. From time to time, there are one or two residents who are sleeping late in the residential buildings on both sides, and there are occasionally one or two cars on the street. Private cars and buses pass by.Everything is no different from ordinary city night scenes.

After 15 minutes, the car turned into a residential area and drove towards the underground garage.Xiaoyi didn't dare to follow it down to the closed underground area, so she had to open the door and jump out of the car, walking to the hotel along the original road.

However, this road seemed to be quieter than when we came here. For nearly an hour, Xiaoyi didn’t see any cars, but the traffic lights on the way here were still changing according to time, but they were all frozen, showing A color either red or green.Xiaoyi walked back to the hotel lobby, and immediately looked at the electronic clock on the wall: 01:03

The night that should have been day, the people who suddenly disappeared, the weird clock...how on earth can I bring everything back to normal?After the boy cut off contact with 99% of his body, his IQ dropped instantly.Xiaoyi shook his head, and quickly walked back to the floor he was on. The door of Huo Li's room was still half open. The boy walked through the silent corridor, went back to the room, closed the door, lifted the quilt, and went to bed, and found a Close your eyes at a comfortable angle: whatever, go to sleep!

The young man who had been tired for several days fell asleep again on the big bed in the hotel. Maybe it was because the body of the new 14-5 year old boy needed sleep more. When he raised his eyes slightly, seeing that the sky was still dark, he went back to sleep again.It wasn't until the teenager felt that it had passed for a long time that he was awakened by a knock on the door:

"Sister-in-law! It's 7 o'clock, wake up!" Liumo's voice came from outside the house.

Xiaoyi got up in a jerk, and saw the golden morning light outside the window shining on the roof opposite, and the sky had turned light blue.

"2d14?"

"Master, you are awake! Are we going to buy a hospital today?" The voice of the system sounded in the boy's mind.

"What happened last night!" the boy asked.

System 2d14 was a little confused: "What? Host, you have been sleeping?"

"It's when the electronic clock shows 12:30!"

System 2d14: "Master, what are you talking about? You were sleeping with your eyes closed after 12 o'clock last night. I am your system and can only see what you see. I can't see the watch!"

Xiao Yi only felt that he was talking to each other, so he jumped out of bed and ran out of the door in his pajamas. He pushed the door open and ran out of Huo Li's room, then twisted the doorknob and barged in.Huo Li, who was several years younger, looked at the boy in surprise with blue eyes, while reaching for his shirt.Standing against the light in the morning light, the young version of Huo Li was only wearing trousers. The smooth muscles of his upper body and his handsome and vigorous face were as beautiful as an oil painting.

But Xiaoyi didn't have the heart to appreciate these, but asked eagerly: "Did you feel anything strange at 12:30 last night?"

"What's the matter, Xiaoyi?" Huo Li saw that the boy didn't mean to be joking, so he also became serious, "I didn't feel anything."

"You mean you slept on the bed last night?" the young man asked, walking to the bed and observing carefully: the sheets and quilt were the same as what he saw yesterday, but the depression on the pillow had already been flattened by Huo Li.

Huo Li: "I slept in bed from 11 o'clock to 6 o'clock yesterday and didn't get up. Even if there were any abnormalities within a few square kilometers when I fell asleep, I would definitely notice it. But I spent the whole night last night. Didn't feel any difference."

"But I came to your room at 12:30 yesterday, and there was no one there." The black-haired boy said, and then told Huo Li about the series of strange things he encountered last night.

Huo Li put on his shirt, walked quickly to the door and knelt down to examine it carefully, "Xiao Yi, according to your description, you should have pried open this door. But look, the lock is very smooth without a trace Scratches, nobody touched it before I opened it this morning. And, where's the shard of glass?"

The boy touched his empty pajama pants pocket, as if everything that happened last night was just like a dream, and what is going on now is the real reality.

Huo Li looked at the silent young man, stood up and shouted in the corridor: "Mr. Liu, Miss Aliena and others come to my room immediately! Little Philip and I want to discuss with you Hospital Buying Program Today!"

Twenty minutes later, the eight people gathered in Huo Li's room. After listening to the boy's narration, everyone looked at each other, and none of them believed it.

"I didn't go there last night!"

"I'm a light sleeper, if Xiaoyi made such a big noise in the corridor, I would definitely hear it." Britney said.

"To tell you the truth, I didn't watch TV for a long time last night, so I hugged the TV and watched it until 2 o'clock." A pale boy standing next to him said with a simple and honest smile. You should be able to hear the TV in my room when you reach the corridor, after all, I live opposite the boss." Dali said.

"Sister-in-law, you didn't have a nightmare last night, did you?" said Liu Mo, wearing the skin of a middle-aged bald uncle.

The black-haired boy smiled embarrassedly and said, "Maybe! Maybe I fell asleep. Let's start today's plan, don't waste time."

Huo Li was a little surprised that the young man didn't insist on doing it anymore, and said after a few seconds: "Today, the eldest and young masters of the Philip family will first go down with the family assistants to Fandu Auction House to exchange useless things in the space for start-up funds. .Because this was the private action of the two young masters, the Philip family did not contribute. Today, Liumo and Aliena went to the auction house with us. The rest of the people went to choose the location of the hospital, as far away from government departments as possible, but the location should be in the bustling area. Area, enclosed space; if these three conditions are met, money is not a problem.”

"Okay boss, leave it to us!" Britney said.

Afterwards, several people filed out confidently and began to prepare for the next move. No one took the boy's 'nightmare' seriously.

Just as the young man walked out of the room, Huo Li's voice came from his mind: "Xiaoyi, you... Did you not say anything just now?"

The young man glanced at the short piece of wire wrapped around the potted plant in the corridor without any trace, and every piece of rust on it was exactly the same as what he deliberately wrote down last night.

"A very powerful enemy," Xiaoyi replied consciously, while hiding his arm with a slightly bloody red mark, "but I don't know who he is."
