i can hear your voice

Sure enough, Shiyan didn't come to the institute on Sunday, and Ruopu could still hear his heartbeat, but this time he was too far away from him, so he couldn't pinpoint his location accurately.

Ruo Pu's morning class is two hours of supernatural training, plus one hour of shooting training. This time, he didn't meet coach Lu Jun again in the shooting training. I heard that he has been transferred to a more important and promising job. post.

In the afternoon, the ability training continued. At four o'clock, Le Youyuan received a notice to go to a meeting, and Ruo Pu decided to practice guns for a while.

But Le Youyuan said: "You have to go to the meeting, Xie Weiming asked me to call you."

"Oh? What meeting?" Ruo Pu was not an employee of the Ability Bureau or the research institute, so it was strange to ask him to go to the meeting together.

Could it be his sister's business?I haven't heard of it.

——He doesn't listen to others, but if someone mentions his sister's name, he will be set off, and then he will eavesdrop a little bit.But he would only be so vigilant when he was in the park, because his sister was here, and he would not be so nervous when he was out of the park, and he would not continue to monitor his sister's news.

"I don't know." Le Youyuan packed the computer and other personal belongings into a trolley case, and pushed it to the training room.

Ruopu followed him suspiciously, and the two went to the meeting place together.

The meeting room is in the basement, there is no monitoring system installed in the room, the walls are made of sound-proof materials, and the participants are not allowed to carry electronic products—mainly to prevent people with abilities like Le Youyuan from eavesdropping on the meeting through the mobile phones of the participants.

This time it was just a small meeting, and there were only a dozen or so people attending the meeting, including Song Mingqing.

As soon as Ruopu entered, Song Mingqing called him: "Ruopu, come here."

Fu Cong was sitting on Song Mingqing's right, and the seat on his left was empty.

"Do you know what it is?" After sitting down, Ruo Pu asked Song Mingqing in a low voice.

Song Mingqing turned his head towards Fu Cong.

Oh, Ruo Pu understands, it has something to do with Fu Cong's predictive ability, it should be that he has predicted what new events will happen.

Ruo Pu looked at Fu Cong while thinking about it, his complexion was fine, his eyes were closed, the scar on the lower half of his face was much lighter than when we first saw it, it can't be seen if you don't look carefully, it should be Pei Yannian Treated him.

Wang Wenrong said: "It's almost time, and everyone is here, so let's start."

"Okay." Xie Weiming got up, walked to the conference room table, turned on the projector, and then retreated to the edge of the curtain.

Two pictures were projected on the screen, one on the left and one on the right. On the left was a real photo of a bridge, and on the right was an art painting of the bridge in the photo.

The real photo on the left is a bustling scene of traffic.

The painting on the right is very bleak. There are no cars on the bridge, but there are layers of roadblocks. In the foreground are some heavily armed soldiers standing behind the roadblocks. The bridge extends far away until it melts into the white mist, with a ghostly distortion. Figures wandered in the fog.

Ruopu wondered, isn't this the Longgang Bridge in his hometown Longgang City?What happened to the bridge?

After a while, the picture on the curtain changed and was switched to another set of pictures, also a picture with a painting, this time the main body of the picture was "Ladder" - a tall building that looks a bit like a ladder , is one of the landmark buildings of Longgang.

The high-rise building in the photo on the left is located in a bustling area, with a huge flow of people downstairs, and the shops on both sides of the street are doing very well.

The style of the painting on the right is as eerie as the previous painting of the Longgang Bridge. The flow of people downstairs in the "Ladder" disappeared, the shops were destroyed, the glass walls were smashed, the goods were emptied, and the rest of the place was a mess.

There was a lot of rubbish scattered on the street outside, and there were many empty cars parked in a mess. There was a car directly across the middle of the road, the door was open, and there was a large splatter of dried blood on the windshield.

With the sky ladder as the center, the vertical and horizontal streets extend in all directions. There are people running in the distance, holding weapons like sticks in their hands, and in the distance is the white mist that engulfs everything.

Seeing this, Ruo Pu understood that this painting, like the previous painting of Longgang Bridge, should be a picture that Fu Cong had predicted.

No wonder he was called over for a meeting, probably because he knew Longgang better—because he is from Longgang, but unfortunately he has been studying in Yuncheng since the second grade of elementary school, although he would go back to Longgang once or twice a year , but they always stay at his grandpa’s house in the suburbs and rarely go to the city.

The third, fourth, fifth and sixth groups of pictures still show partial pictures of Longgang, and they are all famous landmarks.

Xie Weiming said: "In addition to these few pictures, Mr. Fu Cong also saw some other pictures. The background is an ordinary street with no obvious features. The style is similar to the current few pictures. Because I was in a hurry, I didn't draw them. come out."

Someone said: "Looking at the scene on the painting, it is certain that something happened in Longgang, but I can't tell what happened, nor can I tell when it happened. Mr. Fu Cong, did you see a clock in the picture?"

Song Mingqing translated the man's words to Fu Cong, who shook his head.

Ruopu looked at the man, and then at the curtain.

Xie Weiming noticed it, interrupted the man, and asked Ruopu: "What's wrong? Did you find anything?"

"Even if there is a clock in the painting, it's useless. A normal clock only shows the time." Ruo Pu said, "However, it should be possible to calculate the date and time based on the shadow?"

Those paintings are very realistic, and the buildings on them all have shadows.

Wang Wenrong smiled and said, "Yes, good boy."

Le Youyuan held his overly chiselled head with a faint skull-like aura with one hand, glanced at everyone, and said, "Don't let me bring my computer in, or I've already figured out the time."

Xie Weiming: "Go outside and do the math, come in after you've done the math."

Le Youyuan really stood up and left the meeting room.

Others continue the meeting.

"The time can be calculated, but what happened can't be guessed from the existing pictures." Xie Weiming said, "So I want to set up an investigation team and go to Longgang to conduct field investigations, so as to find out the cause of the crisis as soon as possible. .”

Shi Yu said: "You have to discuss this matter with the headquarters."

"Well, I'll go back to Crystal City tonight." Xie Weiming said, "But I hope I can also get Yuncheng's support."

Wang Wenrong immediately said: "This is what it should be."

Shi Yu asked, "Do you want someone?"

Wang Wenrong immediately felt that he had promised too quickly just now. He looked at Xie Weiming and smiled kindly: "Shiyu is in charge of the employees' affairs, so you can discuss it."

Xie Weiming had something else to say, Shi Yu said: "We'll talk about this later. Let me ask you something first, are you planning to bring Fu Cong with you when you return to Jingcheng tonight?"

Fu Cong couldn't understand Zhongzhou dialect, but he could understand his own name, so he turned his face to Song Mingqing, waiting for him to translate for him.

Song Mingqing didn't translate, but directly expressed his opinion: "It's not appropriate. Fu Cong finally got used to Yuncheng a little bit, and now he needs to change to a new environment. I think it's not good for his mental health."

"I have read the popular science books on supernatural abilities published by the supernatural bureau. It says that the status of a supernatural user will directly affect the stability of his ability when using supernatural abilities. Therefore, I don't think Fu Cong should be allowed to leave Yuncheng. In an environment where he can better display his precognitive abilities."

Ruopu looked at Song Mingqing and felt that he had become much stronger.My friends are making rapid progress, so I have to work hard myself.

Xie Weiming said: "What you said makes sense, but if he doesn't go to the headquarters, it will weaken my persuasion. Do you want to come to the headquarters with him? He should feel much more at ease with you."

Fu Cong’s main problems are blindness, language barrier, and bad voice, while Song Mingqing can speak Western Union, and has known Fu Cong for a long time, so he can better understand what he wants to express. If Song Mingqing can go to Jingcheng together , whether it is Fu Cong or the ability department, it will be much easier.

"You mean: Fu Cong and I will go to Jingcheng together and come back together?" Song Mingqing asked, "How many days? Three days? I'm a student, so it's not good to take too long a vacation."

"..."

Xie Weiming had forgotten that Song Mingqing was still a high school student, because this young man was too sophisticated, but the other party was studying alone in Yuncheng, so he should be used to being independent, and he had been training in the Western Union for so long before, so he was mature. It's normal to be a little more sophisticated.

He thought about it for a moment, and said: "Okay, after going to Jingcheng to clarify the matter, I will send you back to Yuncheng. Let's tentatively set it to three days, and it should not exceed a week at the longest."

"Okay." Song Mingqing turned to Fu Cong and explained the situation to him.

When Fu Cong heard that he was going to Jingcheng with Song Mingqing, he agreed without any resistance.

Pan Liqing, who was sitting in the corner, sighed secretly, the bosses were so powerful when they were young!

At this time, Le Youyuan came back, and as soon as he entered the door, he said, "August 8th, around 15 pm."

Then there are still more than two months, and the time seems to be enough?

The meeting will end at 06:30.

After the meeting, Xie Weiming called Ruopu to stop, and Song Mingqing walked ahead with Fu Cong, and turned his head when he heard it.

Xie Weiming asked Ruopu if he would like to join the investigation team going to Longgang.

Ruopu had already thought about this question, and immediately said: "Is it okay to work part-time? After the summer vacation, if you need it, I will come over, but I don't understand anything, so I may not be able to help you."

"I can help." Xie Weiming smiled, "I'll see you in Longgang after your summer vacation."

After leaving the conference room and going up from the basement to the ground, Song Mingqing asked Ruopu, "You agreed to him so quickly?"

Ruopu was rather surprised: "I must agree. Don't you know that I am from Longgang? Although I have been in Yuncheng for many years, I have many relatives in Longgang."

Song Mingqing: "...Oh."

Last time, he had known Ruopu for so many years, but he had never met any of his relatives.

On Monday, Shi Yan entered the classroom in the middle of the morning after self-study. The teacher didn't say anything, and asked him to go back to his seat and sit down.

While the teacher was walking away, Ruo Pu whispered to Shi Yan, "I was worried that you wouldn't come today."

Shi Yan glanced at him and said nothing.

Ruopu: "Did your brother tell you about the meeting yesterday?"

"..." Shi Yan didn't want to talk to him at first, but out of curiosity, he still did, "Why?"

Ruopu smiled and said, "I'll talk to you after class." Then he continued to read the text silently.

Shi Yan: "..." Sure enough, he shouldn't be bothered!

After the get out of class bell rang, Ruo Pu called Shi Yan: "Come on, let's go outside and talk."

Shi Yan struggled a bit, but stood up.

The two came to the corridor outside, and walked to the railing with the protective net added—the protective net was added after Lin Zirui jumped off the building. Ruo Pu hugged Shi Yan's shoulders, and said in a low voice, "Help—"

"Ruo Pu, Shi Yan." Lin Zirui's voice.

Ruo Pu let go of Shiyan, turned around and looked, and really mentioned Lin Zirui: "You came to class after being discharged from the hospital? Is it so soon?"

He felt that Lin Zirui was still a little haggard, and he should rest for a while.

Lin Zirui curled his lips: "You know, it's annoying to be in the hospital, so it's better to come to school."

Ruopu smiled and said: "Then it's not a coincidence for you to come, your deskmate has asked for leave, and you may not be back until next week."

"Song Mingqing asked for leave? He didn't tell me."

"Maybe I plan to talk to you later, and he doesn't know that you will come to school today."

"Oh, we don't have a tacit understanding." Lin Zirui asked, "Why did he ask for leave?"

"The Ability Bureau has something to ask him for help."

"Really? Sounds amazing!"

Ruopu smiled and said, "He is very powerful."

"Well," Lin Zirui said, thinking about the experience of the Western Union, "He is really good. I used to think he was very boring, but now I realize that I have a prejudice against him..."

Ruo Pu and Lin Zirui chatted endlessly, Shi Yan looked at the side for a while, then turned and left.

Lin Zirui looked up, why did he leave without making a sound?

Ruopu said: "Hurry up and go to the bathroom."

Shi Yan was going to the bathroom, and when he was about to zip his trousers, he found that his fingers were blocked by something, and looked down——

Trouble.

Something was wrong with his hands, his nails suddenly grew long.

He turned quickly and walked into the compartment, locking the door before looking back at his hands.

His nails grew by two or three centimeters, and they became less like human nails and more like his cat-shaped claws—sharp hooks with a certain thickness, like a machete, which can open ordinary animals The belly-breaking kind.

He only knew that emotional problems could make him change from a cat back to a human, but he didn't expect that it could also make his human form have the characteristics of a cat.

He tried turning the claws back into human nails, but it didn't work.

He thought, probably the skills need to cool down.

He carefully zipped up his trousers with his sharp claws, then straightened his trousers and clothes.

People come and go outside the cubicle.

Shi Yan stood in the cubicle with downcast eyes, planning to wait for everyone to leave before going out.

Finally, the class bell rang, and Shi Yan put his hand on the compartment door, but at this moment there were footsteps outside again, and someone ran into the bathroom.

"Shi Yan?" The person who came was Ruo Pu.

Shi Yan lowered her eyes: ...annoying.

Ruo Pu walked outside his soundproof room, and knocked on the door lightly: "Shi Yan, what's the matter? Are you all right?"

"..." Shi Yan opened the door and stretched out his hand in front of Ruopu, "Do you think I'm okay?"

Ruo Pu blinked, held Shi Yan's wrist, and patted the back of his hand soothingly with the other: "It's okay, it's okay, let's go back to the dormitory first, then call your brother and ask Uncle Liu to come and pick us up to the research institute."

"No, my brother can't help." Shi Yan said, "This is a genetic defect, and there is no cure for it yet."

"I still have to call your brother and ask him to ask for leave for us, or the teacher will be unhappy."

Shi Yan: "..."

Ruo Pu's attention returned to Shi Yan's hand: "Why does your gene always have trouble with your hand?"

The last time it was transparent optical camouflage, this time it grew claws.

Shi Yan: It's really not just my hand.

He looked at his hand and complained in a low voice, "It's so ugly."

This sharp claw has a certain thickness, and it gets stuck on his finger, making his finger no longer as slender and straight as when it was thin nails.

Ruopu squeezed his fingers: "No, it's still very good-looking, you just haven't gotten used to it yet."

Shi Yan suspected that Ruo Pu was talking nonsense with his eyes open, but in a better mood, he withdrew his hand and put it in his pocket, and turned his head at Ruo Pu: "Let's go."

The two went back to the dormitory together. The dormitory manager downstairs saw them, but said nothing.

After returning to the dormitory, Shi Yan looked around and tentatively touched an extra-curricular book on the desk. The sharp claws easily pierced the page by about five millimeters. With continued force, the entire book was pierced. broken.

Ruopu watched his movements with a thoughtful expression.

Shi Yan looked at Ruo Pu, and asked casually: "...Why did you come to me just now?"

"I'm worried about you, I haven't seen you back since class is almost over."

In fact, Ruo Pu heard that Shi Yan's heartbeat suddenly became very fast, and felt that there must be something wrong with Shi Yan, so he went to find him, because he was worried that Shi Yan would be embarrassed and annoyed, so he waited until the class bell rang, and there was no one else in the bathroom. Only go in when there are people.

"... Oh." Shi Yan: Look, this person is saying nice things again.

It is because he is always like this that I mistakenly think that he likes me very much.

I get angry when I think of it!

Shi Yan retracted his claws, and the sharp claws immediately plowed out several deep ravines in the book, and the torn edges of the pages turned outward, like terrible wounds.

Ruo Pu looked at Shi Yan's hand.

Shi Yan pulled out her sharp claws guiltily, and wiped the gaps on the book with the back of her fingers, as if to smooth them out.

Ruopu: "Just now I was thinking that your alienation can improve your melee combat ability. However, it is very inconvenient at ordinary times. It would be great if you can put it away at ordinary times and stretch it out when fighting."

"Fight?" Shi Yan looked at his hand, "Using this to fight will kill people."

"When fighting bad guys, like that Batman."

Speaking of Batman, Shi Yan remembered what Ruo Pu said before: "What did you say about the meeting yesterday?"

Originally, he would never take the initiative to ask, but because his hands were alienated, Ruo Pu came to him again and accompanied him back to the dormitory. He felt that he could forgive Ruo Pu a little bit and talk to him a little bit.

"Fu Cong predicted that there might be an accident in Longgang." Ruo Pu told Shi Yan about the contents of yesterday's meeting.

It turned out to be the case.After listening, Shi Yan asked: "So you're going to Longgang in summer vacation?"

"Well, in fact, my sister and I will go back for a while every summer vacation."

Shi Yan wanted to say: I will go with you this year.

After all, the situation is different this year, and things may go wrong.

But why do I say that?Why should I say that?

You used me, shouldn't you bring it up?
