The dense humid air and thin drizzle could not relieve the tense atmosphere at all.

Yan Xi curled her body up, hoping to reduce the damage caused by the impact, but her mind was blank right now.

The surroundings seemed to have stopped, the noisy voices of people and the screeching of car horns seemed to have stopped.

Yan Xi felt her stiff body being pulled violently, and she fell into a big and firm embrace...

Almost at the same time, all the voices came again, the people around breathed a sigh of relief, and kept chatting with the people around them about what they had just seen.

Yan Xi came back to his senses, opened his eyes, and saw that under the sun, in the rain and fog, there were small drops of water on his fine hair.They were so close, his warm palm pressed against her back.Behind them is the road with endless traffic, where the shocking scene happened just now.

The smell of woody perfume was cold but reassuring. Yan Xi's pupils suddenly dilated. This person must be Li Zeyan!

"Evolver?"

Now Yan Xi still doesn't know what she is going to do, and she still can't completely calm down.

"Don't you know? But the ability has begun to awaken..."

Yan Xi raised her hand and grabbed Li Zeyan's wrist, and said to her, "Li Zeyan?"

Yan Xi called out his name, which surprised Li Zeyan. He put Yan Xi down, and his relaxed and relaxed face suddenly became tense.

"How do you know me?" Yan Xi didn't know how to answer Li Zeyan's question.

Yan Xi let go of his wrist and deliberately avoided his gaze, hoping that he would not get to the bottom of it.

"What else do you know?" Li Zeyan took a step forward and grabbed her, his voice a little eager.

"I don't know anything..." Yan Xi wanted to break free from his restraint, but the more she struggled, the tighter Li Zeyan's grip became.

"Let go of me!" Yan Xi kept struggling.

"Answer me, and I'll let you go!" Seeing Li Zeyan like this, Yanxi was a little scared, and she was a little awkward to speak.

"I...I..." Yan Xi's mouth was no longer under her control, "I know you because..." She wanted to turn her head around quickly, but now she couldn't say a complete sentence.

"Because of what?" Li Zeyan's voice was extremely low.

"Because, I know you! I've met you! In...in the magazine, you... aren't you the president of Huarui Group?" Yan Xi blinked quickly a few times, trying to hide her guilty conscience.

Li Zeyan's gaze was as sharp as a knife, and he seemed to have seen through Yan Xi long ago.

He let go of Yan Xi's wrist, raised his hand to brush his hair, laughed at himself, turned and left.

Yan Xi stared at his back for a moment before realizing it, she said to him, "Thank you!"

Hearing this, Li Zeyan stopped in his tracks. His slender body stood there without looking back, "Not every time someone will save you."

Sure enough, the lines that should appear, still cannot be missing...

The phone vibrated, Yan Xi picked up the phone, and a middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

When he mentioned Xu Mo, Yan Xi suddenly realized that she immediately raised her head and looked around. The sky was as clear as washing, and the drizzle had already picked up. Except for her slightly wet hair, she couldn't find anything. previous traces.

After hanging up the phone, and stopped a taxi, Yan Xi went straight to the Life Research Institute where Xu Mo was.

Even if Yan Xi knew that she was actually in a fixed game program and was proceeding according to the progress of the game, but the shocking scene just now made it difficult for her to calm down.

After getting out of the car, Yan Xi took a deep breath at the entrance of the Life Research Institute, straightened her hair a little, asked the front desk where Xu Mo was, and then hurried to Xu Mo's laboratory.

Xu Mo in the game is gentle and introverted, Yan Xi also starts to get nervous when he is about to meet his real self.

This research institute is so big, Yan Xi ran for a long time without finding Xu Mo's lab.

"I'm sorry!" At the corner of the stairs, Yan Xi collided head-on with a person.She hurriedly said modestly, and was held back by the man when she was about to leave.

"You can't run around in the research institute, don't you know?" Although the words were accusations, there was no trace of sullenness. His voice was calm and mellow like pebbles that have been washed away in the riverbed for many years.

Yan Xi looked up and saw him with a smile on his face. The sun was shining brightly at this moment, and the dazzling sunlight shone on him, and everything seemed to have calmed down.

Yan Xi looked at him straight, the spring of revival of all things and the quiet air of the research institute inevitably made one's heart flutter.

"Yes...I'm sorry..." Yan Xi stiffly avoided his gaze and lowered her head.

"I... I'm here to see Professor Xu Mo."

"You're looking for Xu Mo, is there something wrong?"

"I... I'm from Tianshui Film and Television Company. I invited Professor Xu to participate in "Discovering the Miracle". Where is Professor Xu?" Yan Xi didn't want to talk to him anymore. Ever since what happened to Zhou Qiluo, Yan Xi realized that , I must follow the schedule as much as possible, otherwise I may miss some people.

"I've watched your show too, and I feel that you have some problems with choosing the topic." He didn't seem to want to introduce himself, Yan Xi took a step back and walked past him.

"Thank you for your suggestion, but I have something urgent right now, let's talk another day." He walked upstairs quickly, took out his mobile phone, and dialed Xu Mo's number.

As soon as the busy tone rang, she heard a ringing call behind her. Yan Xi turned around slowly and saw the man holding the mobile phone, shaking it. She didn't know if it was Yan Xi's illusion, but she actually felt a smile on his face. A smug smile.

Shouldn't they meet for the first time at the entrance of the laboratory... Why did they suddenly reach the corridor...

"Hehehehe...Hello, Professor Xu Mo..." With an embarrassed smile on his face, Yan Xi silently hung up the phone and stuffed the phone back into his bag.

"Hello, Miss Yan."

Yan Xi stood there, not knowing what to say, when a few young girls came up the stairs.

"Hello, Professor Xu Mo!"

They greeted Xu Mo with smiles.Xu Mo just nodded slightly with a smile, and the girls left happily.

Yan Xi felt that "Hi, Professor Xu Mo" was like slapping her in the face.

"Why don't you come to my office and talk?"

Yan Xi shyly followed Xu Mo to his office.

"Professor Xu Mo, I'm very sorry for offending you, um...you and I imagined it differently..." Yan Xi's voice became smaller and smaller.

"Is it different? Maybe you imagine me as a bad old man! I'm also to blame for not introducing myself."

There is still a big difference between a picture and a real person...

Although I know that my plan will be rejected, let's proceed according to the normal process first!

"Let me introduce the plan for the last issue of "Discovering Miracles"!"

"You can use my blackboard."

Yan Xi was not familiar with this, but fortunately, he looked through the documents on the way here.According to my own impression, I will introduce it to Xu Mo.

"Our last program is positioned as 'Invisible Lies'."

"Unfortunately, but this subject is not acceptable."

Sure enough.

Seeing that Yan Xi didn't show any surprise, Xu Mo stood up and walked in front of Yan Xi. The distance between the two was very close, and Yan Xi took a step back cautiously.

"Do you believe in superpowers?"

Yan Xi didn't know how to answer, she was not the heroine in the original story, and her feelings for other people in the game were just like meeting by chance.

"I don't know, this...it's hard to say..." Although in the setting of this game, there is indeed such a magical ability as super power.However, in a normal society, it is indeed a bit whimsical to say something like superpowers.

"Have you ever heard of the Red Queen Hypothesis?"

"Need to keep running to stay in place?" She vaguely remembered, it seemed like this.

The smile on Xu Mo's face deepened, and she nodded slightly.

"Man has been away from the competition in nature for thousands of years, and he has long forgotten how cruel the world is."

What he said was indeed true, she had never thought of these words.

"People are now at the top of the pyramid and have the right to control the life and death of other creatures. Of course, they have given up competition."

"However, it is very dangerous to give up vigilance. At the very least, people must have a way to avoid danger."

"Is there really such a method?" When danger strikes, who can have such a predictive ability?

Xu Mo turned his head and looked straight at Yan Xi. With one hand propped on the blackboard, he slowly bent down, his head almost touching Yan Xi's ear. Yan Xi felt that his heart was about to explode. jumped out.

"When you are in danger..." His warm breath breathed in her ear.

"Trust your gut."

"Trust my instincts?"

The two said these words almost at the same time, Xu Mo slowly straightened up, and looked at her with some surprise.It seemed that he didn't expect Yan Xi to say this.

Soon the surprise on his face turned into a very pleased smile.

He stroked Yan Xi's hair slowly, and said to her softly, "Be obedient, my good girl."
