Accompanied by occasional explosions, Lanzhi followed Ueno and climbed to the next room along the sunken wall outside the balcony.

The lack of sluggish movements made Ueno look at her with a strange look.

"What's the matter?" Although she was also surprised by her sudden improvement in physical fitness, Lan Zhi only attributed it to the outbreak of her character in a crisis situation, and didn't think there was anything wrong.

Ueno smiled and shook his head, continuing to lead the way.

"Wait..." After walking a certain distance, Lan Zhi felt more and more uneasy, "Why do you want to go this way? It seems that this direction can only lead to the roof of the building?"

"Of course. We are now on the 21st floor, and there are robbers gathered below. They are fighting the police for their lives. It is definitely not a wise choice to go down." Ueno and Lan Zhi stopped together and turned around. , looked at her sincerely, "I sense a helicopter on the roof, we can escape from there."

"Can you fly a helicopter?"

"There is no problem with the basic operation."

"But I still have companions," Lan Zhi narrowed her eyes, "They are still here, I can't just leave."

She stared closely at every expression of Ueno, not letting go of any change.

Ueno frowned, and obvious thoughts flashed across his blue eyes like the deep sea.

"Do you know where they are?"

Lanzhi carefully recalled the sense of space change when passing through the wall: "I'm not sure, but it should be on the 20th floor downstairs."

"There is no way. If it is above the 21st floor, we may still have a way to rescue them, but the 20th floor..." Ueno showed a little bit of embarrassment, "There are many well-equipped robbers on that floor. Because their leader is there, the defense there is not much weaker than that of the exhibition hall... The explosion just now came from there. Obviously, it has become the second battleground between the robbers and the police, and it is not easy to go back now. wise."

Lan Zhi remained silent.

Ueno tried his best to suppress the sadness in his pupils: "Maybe they have already... Judging from the number and loudness of the explosion just now, that level may have..."

"Ueno-kun, you should leave first." Lan Zhi lowered her head, put her hands in her pockets, her shoulders drooped weakly, "Thank you for taking me to escape such a long way, it's a pity that I can't leave with you..."

"Are you going to the 20th floor?" Ueno opened his eyes wide in astonishment, his lapis lazuli pupils were filled with disbelief, "Stop talking stupid, what's the use of you going back? This kind of crisis should be able to Escape one is a—”

"So Ueno-kun, let's leave first. It's a good time to leave one at a time like this. Ueno-kun will only drag you down with a girl who knows nothing like me?"

"How could it be?" Ueno retorted loudly, with sincere warmth and touching relief in his frightening eyes like tanzanite, "We can definitely escape safely, you forgot that I can avoid murderers Is it supernatural?"

"By the way, there is also the ability of Ueno-kun." Lanzhi repeated in a low voice, as if he was talking to himself in a conflict, "Ueno-kun's ability can sense the location of the robber?"

"Yes."

"But there is a distance limit, right? Ability or something... Can Ueno-kun sense the situation above? What if we go up to the 22nd floor and just bump into or be surrounded by robbers?"

"Don't worry, my ability can cover several floors, so there won't be such a dangerous situation."

"That's right. Ueno-kun's ability covers a very wide distance, otherwise how can he grasp the information that the police have entered the building?" Lanzhi seemed relieved, stretched out her hands in her pockets, and put her back behind her, " This is really great..." Then the topic changed, "Ueno-kun, you seem to be in a hurry?"

Ueno was stunned, and soon showed a shy smile: "Yes, because now is a rare opportunity to escape, I'm afraid that something will change if it's too late..."

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, the girl standing three steps away from him suddenly seemed to be a different person, and put on a strange expression: "Miscellaneous cultivator, who allowed you to look up at this king! [ 1]"

Ueno froze in place suddenly, and then, the smoke sensor above suddenly sprayed water droplets, which splashed into his eyes.

--not good!

Ueno was alarmed, his eyes couldn't be opened because of the water, he took a few steps back suddenly looking down on the situation in front of him, raised his arms to block the heart and lungs and other vital parts.

However, the attack that could not be captured by sight still landed on him, and it was in a place he could never have imagined.

"hiss--"

Ueno couldn't help curling up, and got another blow on the back of the neck.

When his eyes were blackened due to lack of oxygen, his hands and feet were neatly bound with a piece of cloth.

——That was the cloth strip he tied around Lan Zhi's arm to encourage Lan Zhi to climb over the high-altitude outer wall.

Ueno, who was successfully attacked, finally accepted his intoxicating smile.

"Girl, what are you doing?"

"I thought you would ask, where did you show your flaws?"

"Heh..." Ueno laughed again, different from the shy and seductive warm smile before. At this time, the curvature of his lips was not deep, and there was no deliberate decoration, but it made people feel dangerous unconsciously, "Then , lovely lady, where did I show my flaws?"

"A sensible person like you, who is so sensible that he would never take risks for strangers, why must he insist on bringing a bottle of oil?"

"For this reason?"

"Of course not, this is just a factor that deepens my affirmation." Lan Zhi rubbed his sore hand knife, staring at Ueno with vigilance in his eyes, "I felt something was wrong from the beginning, a person crawled in from the balcony girl, you are very suspicious no matter how you look at it? Why is your first reaction surprised, not vigilant? For those who are trembling and trying to avoid robbers, isn’t the first reaction not to be alert and scrutinized? How can you be sure, I was also the one who escaped, not a plainclothes policeman or a gangster?

"And after that, it was even more strange. You, who had no doubts about me at first, actually started to look at me when you saw me jumping from the high-altitude balcony to the next room in one breath-although you did it very secretly, I'm sorry , Recently, due to some reasons, I have a little nervous breakdown, and I am very sensitive to looking at this kind of eyes."

Ueno looked calm, without the slightest sense of unease in being exposed: "About trusting you... because I can sense the location of everyone in this building and focus on the situation on the 20th floor, I noticed that you are escaped from there..."

"No." Lan Zhi denied without hesitation, "If you really have the ability to sense and pay attention to the situation on the 20th floor, how can you not know where my companion is? And, if it is true as you said, If you notice my escape, then you should be even more terrified when facing me."

"How to say?"

"Do you know how I got out of your balcony?"

"...from the room on the 20th floor."

"That's not right, I came through the wall."

"!!" Ueno's voice changed slightly, "Superhuman?"

Lan Zhi didn't answer: "There are still many contradictions, do you want me to give examples one by one?"

"Okay, I understand. But even if I'm suspicious, you don't have to use this method to treat me, right? I have good intentions anyway, and I want to save you and go together..."

"Good intentions? Are you joking? Ueno-kun." Lan Zhi raised his eyebrows, "A false supernatural person, a boy who hides alone in the room and escapes the robbers, can determine the whereabouts and movements of the criminals with certainty, and even knows The police reaction...it's so obvious that you still want me to thank you, do you think I'm an idiot?"

He got up and patted his trouser legs, staring at the boy on the ground without any relaxation: "The reason why you have no doubt about my identity and can know the actions of the gangsters and the police is because you are also a member of the robbers. Right, Ueno-kun? Besides, it seems that your status is not low, so you can get key information, even I, the restless hostage who 'attacked the monitoring room', knows the existence of me. Are you a hidden eyeliner? Or... the mastermind behind the scenes? As for your purpose of taking me away, is it to find another hostage, or to prove your innocence during the police interrogation? I think about it, the police helicopter has been hovering on the roof, but they have been unable to break in from the top floor... There should still be an armed team hiding there? With the rigor of the police, it is impossible to allow escape methods such as helicopters, so that thing should be in a hidden place. You want to abandon your fellow robbers and go alone Escape alone?"

"How sure are you? I admit that I didn't perceive the route you took when you arrived at the balcony, but that may be the mutual interference between the supernatural beings. How can you accuse me of being an accomplice of the robbers based on this?"

"Are you still determined?" Lan Zhi stood up and took two steps back, "I forgot to tell you that when I separated from my companions, I happened to be at the stairs outside the monitoring room on the 20th floor."

Lan Zhi calmly took two steps back again,

"Although there are three forks there, they all lead to the top without exception. Tell me, where will they go?"

"...They are all on the 21st floor? And you deliberately told me they were on the 20th floor to test me?"

"That's right. Although you can get information on other buildings through special contact methods, during the time we were together, you didn't have time to touch your information Internet cafe, Ueno-kun? So, you don't even know that we escaped If you come out with news, you don’t even know our escape route.”

"that is all?"

"Of course there are reasons you don't know." Lan Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.To be honest, she didn't expect to be saved by the evil "auditory hallucinations" this time.If it wasn't for that pious and calm voice chanting epigrams from the "Bible" in her ear, she might have believed in Ueno in confusion.When people are in a panic, they are the easiest to follow the crowd and be moved by hypocritical kindness.Moreover, if she hadn't deliberately imitated that annoying and arrogant voice, she really couldn't think of a way to make Ueno show his flaws because of his stupefaction. Thinking about it this way, that voice that always likes to call people "miscellaneous repair" is not so annoying.

"Entertain me well, miscellaneous cultivator. [2]"

...No, take that back.

Lan Zhi silently turned her head and stuffed the things in her hands into her pockets.

"What is that? What did you use to trigger the smoke sensor just now? I remember that when I subdued you, my companion should have confiscated all the dangerous items on you?" If it wasn't for the sudden spray of water from the smoke sensor Eyes, he would never be successfully attacked by the girl in front of him.

"Lighter." Lanzhi showed six bright white teeth to Ueno, "Because it looks like lipstick, so your companion didn't take it."

"I see." Ueno smiled and stood up suddenly, "But you are still too naive. Do you know why so many talented wizards fail in the end? Because they have the desire to explain, and they always explain their own success. What I just said So the purpose of chatting with you is to delay time. Thanks to you, through the short period of rest just now, the eyes hurt by the water and the hypoxic symptoms of being hit by you on the back of the neck have been relieved, at least enough for a while Fight." The arc of Ueno's lips became more and more upward, but it revealed a dark and cruel coldness, "Do you think that you can trap me just by tying my hands and feet?"

Lan Zhi shrugged: "I chatted with you just now to delay the time."

"...?!"

"Did you know? A person's sensitivity to another person who doesn't like him is always surprisingly high. You can understand it as an opponent effect." Lan Zhi turned slightly sideways and looked at the passage behind him, "Really? , Ikegami-san?"
