Natural enemies

Although the rainy season is over, the temperature is more than 30 degrees even at night. People who don’t turn on the air conditioner in the house at this time can hardly live with themselves, not to mention that there are mosquitoes in the yard...

Tang Ji was squatting on the side of the road smoking in the community. Occasionally someone passed by and couldn't help but look at him—he was wearing a delicate handmade shirt, but he was posing as a migrant worker squatting.

Shen Jingyan came from behind, knelt down beside him, and glanced at him: "Where are you feeding the mosquitoes?"

Tang Ji didn't say anything, and handed him a cigarette.Shen Jingyan took it, and looked at it under the street light: "Yo, what a smoke." He put it behind his ear, "I'll keep it to smoke."

Tang Ji silently stuffed most of the remaining pack of cigarettes to him.Shen Jingyan took the cigarette and smiled: "A pack of cigarettes and you want me to listen to you?"

"Didn't you come down here just to listen to me?" Tang Ji shot back sullenly, took a deep puff of cigarette, and exhaled a thick smoke dragon.

Shen Jingyan stopped talking, and squatted for a while before saying, "You knew he was a vampire, didn't you?"

"I guess so." Tang Ji propped his head on one hand, watching the smoke slowly rise in rapt attention, "But I don't understand how Lanxi couldn't find him."

Shen Jingyan shrugged: "It's not important. If you had wanted to test it out earlier, you would be able to tell the truth from the fake right away by giving him a knife."

"I had hoped that he would come to be a blood hunter, but he doesn't seem to want to."

"Blood hunting—a few of them have a good end..." Shen Jingyan scratched his messy hair, "You don't think he is the one who did these things, right? It just can't explain the disappearance of him and Zhang Liang If you say that he is an unknown person who ran away because he was afraid of being recognized by us, what about Zhang Liang? He is a real person, why did he run away? He also took his mother with him."

"Did you know he left an umbrella behind?" Tang Ji said suddenly without thinking.

"Ah?" No matter how clever Shen Jingyan was, she couldn't figure out why he suddenly grabbed the umbrella, "What umbrella."

"An old umbrella, he brought it from where he lived, and it's in my closet now." Tang Ji flicked the cigarette ash, "He still had some old clothes and shoes in the original basement, but he left this umbrella Bring the umbrella."

Shen Jingyan was puzzled: "What's wrong with this umbrella?"

Tang Ji looked up at the sky and said slowly: "This is made of unicorn horns. The handle of the umbrella is cut from a tree in hell. And the umbrella surface is woven with the feathers of fallen angels, so It’s so black and smooth. It’s probably the only one in this world.”

"What what?" Shen Jingyan couldn't help picking her ears, "Are you hysterical?" The bragging was a bit too big.

"He told me that." Tang Ji still looked at the sky, "I thought he was joking, but it turned out to be true..."

"You, how do you know?" Shen Jingyan was dumbfounded, not knowing whether to believe him or not.

Tang Ji lifted his shirt: "Here."

"What are you doing." Shen Jingyan had a horrible expression on his face, "Button up your clothes quickly, I'm straight, I don't want to see your naked body at all."

Tang Ji rolled his eyes at him: "Let you see my injury!"

"What——" Shen Jingyan was stunned as soon as he finished speaking, not only almost pressed his face to Tang Ji's ribs, but also reached out to touch it, "Yes, your injury—I wipe it, this is, this is detoxification ?”

The wound on Tang Ji's ribs, because of the remaining cockroach venom, looks healed on the outside, but the flesh and blood inside are constantly being destroyed and regenerated. Therefore, if you observe the scar carefully, you will find that it seems to be alive. Also squirming slightly.But now, Shen Jingyan looked and looked, touched and touched, and was sure that it was a normal scar.Obviously, the remaining toxins inside have completely disappeared, and among the treasures that can detoxify so quickly, the horn of the unicorn can be regarded as second to none.

"Yeah. Before the meeting, I wiped the wound with the handle of my umbrella." Tang Ji wrapped his shirt casually, "Okay, okay, I should be enough to see Lao Tzu's naked body, right?"

Shen Jingyan's eyes were straightened, and he couldn't care less about his teasing: "There is such an umbrella... Oh my god, hurry up, take it out and let me admire it! Oh my god, who made this umbrella? What are you doing! So many treasures, made into an umbrella! Isn’t this, isn’t this a waste of money? It’s a crime!”

Seeing his madness, Tang Ji shook his head: "Calm down. Since you also think this umbrella is so precious, do you think he will leave the umbrella if he wants to leave?"

Shen Jingyan shook his head like a rattle: "I will definitely not stay!" He suddenly came to his senses, "So what you mean is——you still think that he didn't disappear by himself, and you still don't believe in taking the information, He was the one who killed Old Han!"

Tang Ji still rested his head on his hand: "If he took the information, why didn't he kill Xiaosong? Xiaosong is the main force of the research institute and has complete control over the breeding experiments. As long as he is still around, it doesn't matter if the information is taken away or not." What about the relationship? Of course, Xiaosong is crazy, but a madman is not as reliable as a dead person. Besides, is it easier to make Xiaosong crazy, or kill him?"

Shen Jingyan pursed her lips.When he got serious, he was still very serious: "What do you want me to do?"

"Help me keep an eye on Xiaosong." Tang Ji said slowly, "I doubt that making Xiaosong crazy is only temporary. If he doesn't go crazy one day, maybe he can continue his research."

Shen Jingyan was terrified: "You mean, this is - to save Xiaosong..."

"Yes." Tang Ji said calmly, "Someone didn't have time to take Xiaosong away, so they made him crazy and put him there first. Now that the data is gone, Takahashi has run away, we need Xiaosong, so we have to keep him. When this person is free in the future, he can find an opportunity to take Xiaosong away and continue to use it."

He spoke as if Xiaosong was some kind of machine, Shen Jing said with hairs on his back: "Then why is it impossible for Gu Yi to keep Xiaosong? For example, when he discovered the research content of the institute, he suddenly wanted to continue this project." Research, so first keep Xiaosong, and then take away Meng Fei..."

Tang Ji asked back: "If you can take Meng Fei away, why not take Xiaosong?"

Shen Jingyan was tongue-tied.Tang Ji said lightly, "So I think the matter this time is very complicated. It's okay to say that Gu Yi did it alone, but if it wasn't for him, then there are several groups of people hiding behind it. I can even guess and take away the information. The one who took Meng Fei away is not the same group."

"It's too complicated..." Shen Jingyan murmured, "I've only caught a single alien species, and it's a group of people gathering to make trouble, but why didn't you say these things at the meeting just now? ?”

"Because no one wants to hear it." Tang Ji casually pressed the cigarette butt out on the ground, "Sang Lin didn't want to hear it, after all, her grandfather -- now it seems that it really died at the hands of Gu Yi. President Wu didn't want to hear it either, because Old Han is dead. Of course, David doesn’t want to hear it even more, he hopes that something will happen to me.”

Shen Jingyan looked at him carefully: "You are quite suspicious. Speaking of which, you have slept in the same bed with Gu Yi for so long, yet you didn't realize that he is a vampire?"

Tang Ji coughed dryly: "What's wrong with sleeping in the same bed? You sleep in the same bed with Wu Peng, why don't you still touch him?"

Shen Jingyan glanced sideways at his face: "You are blushing."

"Impossible!" Tang Ji quickly retorted.

"It's red." Shen Jingyan said affirmatively, "You like him, don't you?"

"Nonsense!" Tang Ji answered faster than before this time, "Don't be kidding! I'm straight! Straight as light!"

Shen Jingyan plucked his ears: "Oh. But I heard that if you encounter that - a black hole or something, the light will actually be bent."

"Now get down to business!"

"I'm talking about business." Shen Jing said seriously, "Don't forget, he killed a demon hunter."

Tang Ji was silent.It took a long time before he said slowly: "I just want to find out who is behind the research institute and who wants to continue this kind of research."

"Okay." Shen Jingyan scratched her face, and killed a mosquito with a slap, "How did you find me? Do you know that I will listen to you?"

"First of all, you are not short of money." Tang Ji wanted to light a cigarette, but felt the whole box was given to Shen Jingyan. The less, the more believable."

Shen Jingyan stared at him: "I'm poor too!"

"You should at least open a barber shop by yourself. You can't go anywhere if you are poor." Tang Ji also gave him a look. "Second, you hate evil like an enemy, and you will never join forces with people like the research institute."

"That's true..." Shen Jingyan was a little complacent, "Otherwise, Master would have taught me for nothing."

"Third, you are cold."

"What?"

"You are cold." Tang Ji looked at him, "Buddhism emphasizes that all things are empty. Although you are not a monk, you are relatively indifferent to everyone, even to your colleagues. Lao Han is dead, Wu Zhanshan is about to lose his mind, others I was also very sad and angry, but you didn’t. Because you are cold, your desires are not strong, and you don’t always want more money like Zhang Heng; because you don’t have so much affection for others, you are always calm , can listen to my words."

Shen Jingyan murmured, "I sound like a cold-blooded animal..."

Tang Ji ignored him, and continued to say: "You have a good impression of Gu Yi, so you can listen to my words now. But if one day you find that Gu Yi is really full of evil, you will not hesitate to do it."

Shen Jingyan understood what he meant now: "Are you afraid that you won't be able to make a move?"

Tang Ji kept his mouth shut.Shen Jingyan sighed: "Look, you still said you didn't like him... Forget it, let's not talk about it, what should we do now?"

Tang Ji lowered his head: "I don't have a clue yet—I want to know where Zhang Liang is now..."

Zhang Liang is in a villa in Xinjiang District.

Facing Huangpu, the spring is warm—even though it is summer night, there is still a fragrance of flowers in the house—in a light blue glazed vase, there is a bouquet of fresh red roses, filled with a sweet fragrance.

However, Zhang Liang felt that the red color was particularly dazzling, just like the bright red liquid in Louis's hand.

The smell of roses concealed the smell, but Zhang Liang still knew that the tall crystal cup was filled with blood, and it had just been drawn from the boy next door.As long as Zhang Liang thought of this, his stomach would turn upwards, so he could only look away and not look at those red colors.

But although the room is spacious, his field of vision is limited after all. If he takes his eyes away from Louis, he can only land on the opposite hospital bed.A middle-aged woman was lying quietly under the bed sheet, with a needle stuck in her arm. A light blue liquid was slowly being injected into her vein through the needle drop by drop.

"I think you should be able to see that your mother's condition is much better." Louis sat on a gorgeous armchair, the crystal cup in his hand was shaking gently, the bright red liquid reflected circles of lights, His pale face seemed to have a little rosy reflection.

Zhang Liang looked at his mother's face.Louie was telling the truth.His mother's face was originally that kind of waxy yellow, especially after the doctor said that the internal organs began to fail, it added an indescribable leaden gray, which made him feel breathless at a glance.But now, that layer of gray is gone, and the sallow yellow is also fading, and even a faint red is beginning to emerge.

"What about when the medicine is stopped?" Zhang Liang asked back, but his voice was powerless.

"I can never stop her medicine." Louis smiled, "I still have medicine for her alone."

"Is it enough to stop taking the medicine?" Zhang Liang asked again, "What will she look like if this medicine continues to be used? Is she still a human?"

Louis laughed and asked him back, "Do you think I'm human?"

"of course not!"

"Then would you like her to live like me, or would you like her to die?"

Zhang Liang closed his lips tightly and said after a long time: "She may not be like you."

Louis understood what he meant, drank the blood in the glass comfortably, and raised his legs: "What if I give her a first hug?"

"What?" Zhang Liang suddenly raised his head.

"I said, I can give her a first hug." Louis smiled like a tempting devil, "When she wakes up, I can give her a first hug and let her live forever. Of course, there is also you. In this way, you Mother and child can never be separated."

Zhang Liang clenched his fists, his eyes flickered.Louis looked at him with a smile, not in a hurry: "You can think about it slowly. I think it will take a few days for her to wake up, don't worry."

"Sir—" A young woman in a red low-cut skirt walked to the door, "Your phone number."

Louis frowned slightly, got up and left the room, the female vampire held the phone to him: "It's over there."

"Well——" Louis took it casually, and there was a flat voice on the phone, which seemed to have gone through a voice changing system, "Mr. Vatican, hello."

"Oh, Mr. Magic Eye." Louis frowned again, but his voice remained relaxed, "What's the matter? It seems that it's not time for trading this year."

The person opposite seemed to laugh: "Mr. Louis is still thinking about trading? I thought you should be on your way to Asia now."
