Being a villain in apocalyptic writing

However, before he could finish his words, he was stunned to find that Luan Ning did not look depressed.

In such a short time, Luan Ning had adjusted his mood and even smiled suddenly. His voice was gentle but firm: "So I want to take a gamble."

Zeng Huixing frowned: "What are you betting on?"

"I bet Jiang Ye can stir up trouble." Luan Ning looked at him and said softly, "And we in Dongxing City can also take advantage of this favorable wind to find our relatives."

Zeng Huixing was slightly stunned, not knowing where the confidence came from.

However, before he could ask why, he saw Luan Ning walking towards the bed again, and even squatted down to look under the bed.

Not finding anything, Luan Ning stood up with a puzzled look on his face.

Zeng Huixing realized something was wrong and walked over: "What are you looking for?"

Luan Ning looked at him and said seriously: "Find a way to survive."

What the hell?

A trace of confusion flashed across Zeng Huixing's face, and he suddenly remembered what Jiang Ye had just said, and he suddenly realized something.

But she still looked at him in confusion: "Not... a way out? What is a way out? Where is the way out? What way are you looking for in the room?"

He asked a series of questions in a row, his tone rising slightly, accurately expressing his dishevelled state at the moment.

Luan Ning paused, a hint of hesitation appeared on his face, and finally he just said: "I think Jiang Ye will leave some tricks behind."

Zeng Huixing observed him quietly for a while, then concluded: "There's something wrong with you."

“…” Luan Ning looked at him and said nothing.

However, this made Zeng Huixing confirm his guess: "Is there something you didn't tell me?"

Luan Ning was silent.

"Hiss, there really is something wrong! I feel like you acted too calm today. Even though Jiang Ye is so different from usual, you are still very calm." Zeng Huixing scratched his head and drew a clear line in the dense reality. "You knew something was wrong with her a long time ago?"

Luan Ning nodded silently.

"...when did it start?"

Luan Ning can answer this question: "I'll know when we meet for the first time."

Zeng Huixing gasped in fear: "You are too bold! What if she wants to kill you?"

Luan Ning shook his head: "In the past two years, I have also encountered many mutants with hidden abilities, and some even wanted to kill me, but they still came over."

Zeng Huixing looked at him blankly: "So this is not the first time you have concealed the patient's supernatural powers."

"……Um."

"You want them to help us find someone?"

Luan Ning shook his head: "You know how much it costs to ask mutants for help."

Zeng Huixing frowned again: "Then why do you do these thankless tasks?"

"I'm just betting." Luan Ning said calmly, "The structure of Dongxing City has been established, and a lot of information is restricted. It will become more and more difficult for us to find people.

"But people who hide their identities and abilities to enter East Star City usually have their own purposes. Through them, sometimes I can get some information that I can't get on a normal day."

Zeng Huixing was speechless for a moment, then looked at him with a slight headache: "You really are... No wonder my brother said before that you are only honest on the surface, but actually you have your own ideas in your heart."

Dealing with mutants of unknown origin in private is like dancing on the edge of a knife! He actually persisted for so long alone...

Zeng Huixing shook his head helplessly.

Luan Ning didn't say anything, his eyes were still looking around.

"Then why are you so sure that she would leave something for you just because of one sentence?" Zeng Huixing pondered for a few seconds and asked again.

Luan Ning fell silent again.

Zeng Huixing understood immediately: "So this reason is what you can't say."

Luan Ning nodded: "This matter concerns her secret. I can't speak without her permission."

"Oh... okay." Zeng Huixing sighed, "What are you looking for? I'll help you find it."

"...I don't know either." Luan Ning's eyes dimmed.

Zeng Huixing scratched his head: "So even the location is guessed by you?"

Luan Ning nodded slowly.

Before he left, he told the white cat to stay in the room. Jiang Ye left in a hurry and it was impossible for him to leave anything behind.

The only approach Luan Ning could think of was to leave some clues through the white cat that appeared later.

However, after searching around, he not only found nothing, he didn't even see the shadow of the white cat.

Luan Ning looked a little depressed and even began to doubt whether he had guessed wrong.

Perhaps Jiang Ye’s last sentence was really just a metaphor.

"Forget it, it's not..." Zeng Huixing was about to speak to comfort him when he saw him like this.

Then at this moment, a white cat fell silently from mid-air in the corner of the room. It walked gracefully from the darkness to Luan Ning with cat steps.

Its long white tail was hooked behind it like a small question mark. Its eyes were clear and it tilted its head slightly to look at Luan Ning who was squatting down.

The man and the cat looked at each other in silence, neither of them moving. The scene looked quite beautiful.

However, in Zeng Huixing's eyes, it was like a thriller. His eyes widened suddenly when he saw the white cat. After confirming that he was not dazzled, he shouted, "Oh my god!"

His eyelids twitched violently, and he bent down to pull Luan Ning, saying, "Be careful! Come here quickly!"

However, Luan Ning raised his hand to stop Zeng Huixing's action. He and the white cat looked at each other with some confusion in their eyes.

He had never dared to tell Zeng Huixing about the situation, for fear that he would reveal some secret between it and Jiang Ye and delay their work, but he did not expect it to come out on its own.

Luan Ning couldn't figure out the situation for a moment and didn't dare to speak, so he could only ask with his eyes.

The scene suddenly became quite funny.

Zeng Huixing didn't know why Luan Ning was delaying in front of this wanted cat!

Luan Ning wasn't sure what the white cat wanted to do, so he could only use his eyes to guess.

But the white cat couldn't understand Luan Ning's eyes.

The two people and the cat were in a stalemate for a few seconds, and finally the white cat was the first to break the silence.

It opened its mouth and a slightly childish voice rang out in the room: "Jiang Ye said that the things she left for you were placed in He Ziye's room."

At this moment, not only Zeng Huixing was dumbfounded, but even Luan Ning was stunned on the spot.

"I...I, I..." Zeng Huixing almost bit his tongue, "Did I see a ghost?"

"Jiang Ye said, you can think so." The white cat glanced at him and repeated the words Jiang Ye had left for it verbatim.

This is Jiang Ye’s current “style”.

After these words were spoken, Zeng Huixing and Luan Ning calmed down somewhat.

"Are you Jiang Ye's...companion?" Zeng Huixing thought for a long time and finally found a suitable word.

There was no way. He had dealt with a lot of people in his life, but the first time he talked to a cat, he really felt that life was absurd.
