Dragon's Companion

Jiang Jihai's body was hung on the exhaust fan, and a huge black hole appeared in his abdomen, dripping blood trickled down his underwear, forming a pool of blood on the ground under his feet.

His pale complexion seemed to have lost all vitality.

But now the most frightening thing is not this corpse, but the second prince standing among them!

With waves of screaming, Jiang Jihai felt that his eardrums were about to be perforated. He covered his ears and watched the people around him scatter in panic. Some even pointed their guns at him. he.

He quickly explained: "Don't shoot, don't shoot! I'm not fake!"

Then he looked at Jiang Jiyao as if asking for help: "Brother, we have been together just now!"

Jiang Jiyao stood where he was, looked at the corpse hanging above, and said to Jiang Chen, "Check your fingerprints and irises."

"Yes."

Soon the detector was fetched, and the corpse hanging from the exhaust fan was also taken off and laid flat on the ground.

Luo An put on special gloves, picked up the corpse's index finger and pressed it on the sensor screen, and a Didi mechanical voice came out: [Jiang Jihai, the fingerprint verification was successful. 】

Jiang Jihai: "..."

Immediately, the people around retreated further.

Luo An opened the eyelids of the corpse, and pressed the flashlight on the dilated pupils.

[Jiang Jihai, the iris verification is successful. 】

Luo An carefully inspected the face of the corpse with tweezers. The skin tissue of other parts did not show signs of transplantation or plastic surgery. He put the tools in the recycling bag and nodded: "It's him."

"..."

Jiang Jihai was suddenly stunned, why can't he prove that he is himself now?

He walked towards Luo An, also wanting to see the corpse, Jiang Jiyao stretched out his hand to stop him.

Jiang Jihai was helpless, even his own brother didn't believe him anymore, but there was nothing he could do, he himself suspected that he was dreaming in the current situation.

He stood where he was and waved to Luo An: "Luo An! Use the detector for me!"

Luo An handed the detector to Jiang Jiyao, and Jiang Jiyao passed it on to him.Jiang Jihai pressed his finger on the detection screen, and a voice rang out: [Jiang Jihai, the fingerprint verification was successful. 】

Then open your eyes wide to look at the infrared, and the verification is successful.

He threw the detector to Jiang Jiyao: "Look at me and say that I am the real one, you still don't believe me!"

Suddenly there was an extra second prince, and everyone present was in a state of panic, and they didn't know whether to pick up or put down the gun in their hands.

Looking at the detector in his hand, Luo An couldn't help asking Jiang Jiyao: "You don't have two younger brothers, do you?"

Although he asked this, he knew in his heart that of course it was impossible.

One of these two must be fake, or maybe both are fake.

Jiang Jiyao started to ask him a lot of questions, and this Jiang Jihai could answer them fluently, and his tone and demeanor were very similar, and there was no flaw at all.

Luo An kept observing him from the side, and at the same time, he was also wondering why there were two Jiang Jihais. Even if the other party stole the gene clones, they couldn't even copy the memories.

It's so magical, it's almost like—magic

Thinking of the change in Luo An's eyes, he took off his gloves, took out the communicator, looked at the row in the list above, and finally contacted his uncle.

It's not good to disturb grandpa so late, and such a big incident suddenly happened, and I'm afraid his old man will be worried.

【Luo An: Uncle, I want to ask you something. 】

On the other side of the elf kingdom, Ah Sheng was taking Jigu to the warehouse to prepare things for ancestor worship the day after tomorrow.

The communicator suddenly rang, he took it out and saw that it was Luo An, and just as soon as he answered, a video invitation was sent over there.

After Ah Sheng clicked on it, he saw that the opposite side of the light screen was full of burnt ruins, and there was a bloody corpse not far away on the ground.

Immediately worried: "What's the matter, Xiaoan?"

Luo An: "I'm fine uncle, it's just that a case happened just now."

Speaking of this, he paused: "It's very weird."

Afterwards, Luo An tried to describe the situation here as simply and concisely as possible, and Ah Sheng also got a general understanding of the situation at the scene.

When he saw the other second prince standing next to the corpse, he frowned suddenly.

After a while, the thin lips moved: "Xiaoan, go and test if he has a heartbeat."

Luo An walked over and put his hand on Jiang Jihai's left chest, all in peace.

Luo An went to test the right side again, still the same.

Luo An stared blankly at Jiang Jihai, as if he was answering the uncle on the other side of the communicator, or as if he was saying to the second prince in front of him: "There is no heartbeat."

"..."

This sentence is another word that stirs up thousands of waves. As we all know, how can a living person not have a heartbeat!

The people around didn't even have the strength to hold their guns this time, and they wished they could just disappear here. Some even knew about ancient oriental literature, so they directly asked if this was the rumored ghost?

Jiang Jihai touched his chest and wanted to cry, he is obviously human, why did his heart stop beating all of a sudden? !

In order to make it easier for everyone present to hear clearly, Luo An directly turned on the communicator and put it on the outside, and heard A Sheng's voice coming from inside.

"There is a kind of elf that has the ability to copy, and everything can be copied, not only the shape, but even the memory can be 100% copied. But the copy will have defects compared to the main body. Generally, animals do not have hearts, and other items will also have certain defects. blemishes, and will not exist for more than seven days."

Elf again?

Luo An looked at the second prince and asked: "In other words, he will disappear after seven days?"

"Yes."

"..."

The place was silent.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Jiang Jihai also remembered what happened at the top of the stairs more than ten minutes ago. The person who hijacked him was cut in half. Immediately, he was ambushed by a black shadow hiding at the corner of the stairs.

Afterwards, there was a sharp pain in the back of his head, and he fell into a coma. When he woke up again, he passed out in the toilet and saw Jiang Jiyao.

But it seemed that he was half awake, and he fell to the ground and had a dream. He dreamed that he was stabbed through the abdomen and fell into a pool of blood.

He always thought it was a dream, but it was not a dream, he was really dead...

So what is he now? He has Jiang Jihai's appearance and memory, but he is not Jiang Jihai, and he only has seven days left to live!

Seeing Jiang Jihai's appearance of the sky falling, Luo An asked: "Is there no way to save him?"

A Sheng was silent for a moment, "Yes, but you have to find that elf and transplant his heart to the second prince. Although the replica will disappear in seven days, the result cannot be reversed, but after the transplant, the second prince will have the ability to replicate. Before the end of the seven days , and then copy a self, and so on."

Before Luo An could say anything, the second prince who was listening beside him couldn't help crying out: "Then I will become an infinite replicator in the future!"

After crying twice, I thought about it again: "Then am I a human? If I know magic, I will become an elf?"

A Sheng: "It's half an elf, can use magic, but can't use a bow. And there will be rejection reactions."

But compared with being able to survive, these are not big problems at all.

Hearing that there was still room for maneuver, everyone breathed a sigh of relief before falling into endless sorrow.

It is not easy to transplant the elf's heart, and now even the murderer has not been found.

But Ah Sheng gave him an important clue: "Xiao An, I want to tell you something alone." Looking at Jiang Jiyao who was standing beside him, "Jiyao, you also come here."

After Luo An avoided the crowd, he found a room alone with Jiang Jiyao, and Ah Sheng told them: "The dark elf we captured at your house last time, we packed the body in the car and planned to take it back to the elf kingdom, but unfortunately Halfway there, the corpse died. You said before that no heart was found on him."

Having said that, Luo An almost guessed the content behind: "So you think that elf is also a copy?"

A Sheng nodded: "It should be the same one who killed the second prince this time."

Grandpa said before that the dark elf can obtain two or more kinds of magic by eating the heart of the same family. He can override the shadow, copy it, and maybe have other abilities.

Thinking of this, Luo An couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, he should have been more vigilant, when the other party came to the house alone, he just swaggered to compete with him and Jiang Jiyao, with such an arrogant attitude, how could he not keep a single hole card.

It turned out that what they saw that day was not the real person at all, but a replica.

But in this way, the previous suspicious cases can basically be locked. It was all done by this dark elf. Now as long as he is caught, the previous cases can also be solved.

But what does this person have to do with Xi Han?

Ah Sheng: "Xiao An, you should do a good job of defense first, and don't act rashly. I will take someone to the empire to find you tomorrow."

Hearing what he said, Luo An knew that reinforcements had arrived, and was overjoyed: "Uncle, are you coming to help us?"

Although it is a bit overly dependent, it is definitely better for someone to help them at this time than relying on themselves alone.

No matter how much magic the dark elf has, it's impossible for it to be worth the combined number of people in the entire elf kingdom.

But Ah Sheng didn't expect that when he proposed to the Elf King to help Luo An, he would be opposed, and His Majesty's attitude was very firm.

"You can't go to this matter."

Ah Sheng couldn't understand: "But if we don't go to Luo'an, it will be very dangerous. The dark elf went after him last time."

"I know."

The Elf King looked at Ah Changchang who was stubbornly kneeling down and sighed, closed his eyes tiredly, and when he opened them again, his eyes were full of sorrow: "You think I don't want to help Xiaoan? I wish I could do nothing Fly directly! But what's the use, the causal cycle can be solved for a while, but not for a lifetime. We can't help with this matter, we can only rely on him."

These years, Ah Sheng has served the Elf King like a parent and child, and he can understand most of what His Majesty said.

Hearing him talk about cause and effect, and thinking of him going to the tree of life alone some time ago, he couldn't help but think of something.

A Sheng: "Is it the prophecy of the god-grandmother?"

The Elf King opened his eyes to look at him, and nodded slightly: "But she didn't predict Xiaoan's future, she only said that Jiang Jiyao is in danger and the time is approaching."

"..." No wonder His Majesty cried when he answered the communication last time.

After Asheng thought for a moment, he stood up from the spot. The Elf King thought he understood, and just waved his hand to make him retreat, when Asheng stepped forward and bowed: "I know your painstaking efforts, but This time I have to help Xiaoan, not out of selfishness, just like the karma you just said, I also have my own karma to end."

The Elf King stared at him blankly, never expecting that he still couldn't let go of that incident back then.

The old and the young looked at each other silently. Although Asheng was his adopted child, the Elf King's affection for him was no less than that of Gabriel.

"You..." The Elf King opened his mouth to say something, but he waved his hands to A Sheng's resolute gaze: "Forget it, go if you want to go! Hurry up and clean up that little bastard who bullied us Xiaoan. Go back early!"

Knowing that His Majesty agreed, Ah Sheng hurriedly saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Those people carried away the bloody corpse, and the second prince watched goosebumps all over his body.

"I died too badly."

Just after complaining, Luo An patted the shoulder.

Luo An: "The car will come later, you should go back to the hospital for a few days."

He glanced at the second prince's chest: "After all, you don't have a heart. If you can't breathe, the doctor can give you oxygen in time."

"Hospitalized again!"

Hearing these two words, the second prince was about to vomit now, and seeing that everyone at the scene was about to evacuate, he hurriedly asked: "Then go to the hospital now, what should I do if that murderer comes again?"

Luo An raised his chin towards the corpse covered in white cloth: "He killed you, what are you afraid of?"

"..." That's true.

But until now, he still didn't have any real sense of being killed.

Luo An and Jiang Jiyao went home and sat in the car. For the first time, they had no conversation.

But Jiang Jiyao would glance in Luo An's direction from time to time, to see what he was thinking with his brows furrowed, and he would just watch him quietly all the way without making a sound.

It wasn't until Luo An's stomach growled that he came back to his senses in a daze, looked up at Jiang Jiyao, and found that the man was actually laughing at him.

Luo An elbowed him: "What are you laughing at, the egg yolk is not my name."

Jiang Jiyao agreed, "It's called egg yolk."

The two fathers agreed so tacitly to let the egg yolk take the blame.

Luo An touched his stomach, although it looked as flat as before, but when he pressed down a little harder, he could feel a round egg-shaped object under the belly.

A few days ago, it was still soft to the touch, like a water polo filled with water. In the past few days, the outer shell has been calcified and very hard. It is estimated that even if it touches a stone, it will still crack.

Luo An said to his stomach: "It's been three months, how long do you plan to live with the egg yolk? Don't come out and pay the rent to Dad!"

Jiang Jiyao: "Soon."

Luo An looked up: "How fast?"

Jiang Jiyao: "Soon."

Luo An looked at his stomach but was a little bit reluctant: "Actually, it's okay to stay for a while longer. When we come out later, your father Yao and I work every day, so we really don't necessarily have time to accompany you."

Leaning on Jiang Jiyao's shoulder, he suddenly felt a little sleepy. He glanced at the hover car, and he should be home in 10 minutes, just in time to take a nap.

But half asleep and half awake, the communicator in his pocket suddenly rang, Luo An frowned, and reached out to take it out.

Seeing the caller ID is Xi Han.

Luo An immediately connected: "Brother Xi?"

The voice over there was more anxious than expected: "Luo An, I know who that person is!"

Luo An said: "It's a coincidence that we also know."

The person on the opposite side obviously paused: "You know?!"

Immediately asked him a question: "Who is it?"

Luo An didn't give a shit either: "It was the dark elf captured at my house last time. It was only a copy that was killed that time, and the real body is still near the imperial capital."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help asking: "Brother Xi, do you know him?"

The last time they were at home, the two should have met face to face, but the reaction between Xi Han and the dark elf was completely like the first time they met.

Unexpectedly, Xi Han sighed: "You guessed wrong, it's not him. But it's inconvenient to tell you about the identity of this person now, Luo An, you believe me, and quickly take Jiyao back to the kingdom of elves, or you two will soon be together." in danger"

Before he finished speaking, the communication signal was interrupted again.

"..." Luo An hurriedly called back, and this time the signal was directly intercepted.

Can't beat it.

He looked at Jiang Jiyao: "Xi Han said that the dark elf was not the murderer, but Xiao Hai was indeed killed by him. Could it be that there is more than one murderer in the digital series?"

Jiang Jiyao: "It's possible. Just now in the underground evacuation passage, I felt a strong spiritual force around me, which has been interfering with my perception."

With spiritual power, it is indeed impossible to be a dark elf.

Luo An: "How strong is it?"

Jiang Jiyao: "According to the interference intensity at that time, at least SS or above. As for his real level, it is still uncertain."

SS or above?

Isn't that just about to reach SSS!

He remembered that in this book, apart from Jiang Jiyao, there was no other setting with such a heaven-defying mental power.

Sure enough, the real powerful villains are put at the end.

Luo An rubbed his forehead with some headaches, the dark elves have uncle to help, maybe the progress can be made faster.But how to find this behind-the-scenes man with such a strong mental power.

Luo An: "Be sure to contact Xi Han again."

At present, only he knows the true identity of the other party.

But why didn't he say it in the communication just now? Was it because he was afraid of being monitored?

And it seemed unrealistic for him to ask himself and Jiang Jiyao to go back to the kingdom of elves.Now that there is such a big mess to deal with, Jiang Jiyao, the minister of justice, must not leave his post without authorization, and the dark elf must be arrested within seven days, otherwise the second prince will be in danger of disappearing.

He had to stay with his uncle to hunt down the dark elves, also to eliminate the rebels in the elf kingdom.

So far, the mystery is getting bigger and bigger, but Luo An has a hunch that this real mysterious villain is about to show up.He arranged such a huge killing game, the ultimate goal is only for the final number 1.

According to the current deduction, if the number 1 is Xi Han, who will the number 2 be?

In his dream, Luo An felt that he was on a boat. After a while, a hole leaked in the plank of the boat, and water began to gurgle into it. He kept scouring the water out with water, but the hull of the boat continued to sink on the water surface.

At a critical moment, someone suddenly waved to him from the shore, Luo An looked down on that person's face at first, but when he swam to the center, he found that it was a person he knew.

But in the dream, Luo An couldn't remember his name at all.

Seeing the hand he stretched out, he handed it over naturally. Unexpectedly, the other party pulled him ashore, pulled him forward suddenly, and the next second a knife stabbed him in the abdomen. The pain made him almost lose consciousness.

He looked at the other person in disbelief, but that person was smiling at him.

"Luo An, sometimes people's eyes are the most deceiving."

"Don't believe your eyes."

……

Probably because the pain in the dream was too real, Luo An suddenly opened his eyes from the pillow, his body was covered in sticky sweat, and he could vaguely smell the shampoo in the sweat.

Luo An sat up quietly, wanting to wash his face, but when he moved his leg, he suddenly kicked something under his feet.Immediately, my heart was raised, and I hurriedly turned on the bedside lamp to see.

Jiang Jiyao, who was next to him, felt the light and opened his eyes, only to find Luo An lying on the bed, looking at a certain place motionlessly, he quickly got up and walked over.

Not even shoes.

"what happened?"

Luo An picked up an egg found on the bed: "The yolk seems to have come out."

"..." Jiang Jiyao took the egg from him. It is very common to give birth in sleep, but such a smooth delivery is indeed very rare.

Jiang Jiyao looked at the egg in his hand, it was as white as a small snowball, and under the light, he could see that the eggshell was covered with a layer of bright crystals like snow frost, which was a little smaller than expected, but fortunately, Otherwise, the pain index will double.

The two fathers stared at the snow-white egg for a while, and didn't speak for a long time.But the excited heartbeat almost overflowed the chest.

Until the egg bounced up in Jiang Jiyao's hands, the two fathers were startled, and hurriedly put it on the bed, and surrounded it with quilts and pillows to prevent it from jumping out of the range.

Luo An looked at the egg yolk: "Should I put it in the nutrient solution now?"

Jiang Jiyao: "I'll configure it, you can take a look at it first."

Hearing Jiang Jiyao messing around outside, and the sound of rushing water pouring into the nutrition tank, Luo Yu stared at the beating egg yolk on the bed, and couldn't bear to leave.

"It's so big in the belly, how come it's so small when it comes out?"

Luo An stretched out his hand, and the egg yolk seemed to be able to sense it, and it jumped into his hand naturally, but because it was round, it couldn't stand at all, and after shaking it twice, it fell on the bed with a thud, shaking the eggshell , seems to be a little confused.

"puff."

Luo An lifted it up, folded a small pillow for it with the paper towel on the bedside, put the pointed end on it, and then covered it with another paper towel as a quilt.

He tapped on the shell with his finger: "Hey, go to sleep."

It is estimated that the egg yolk was sleeping well in the stomach, and it was suddenly produced, and the whole egg was frozen awake. After all, the outside temperature is much lower than the body temperature, and it takes two days to get used to it.

After Jiang Jiyao prepared the nutrient solution, he went to the bedroom and saw Luo An using this childish method to coax the egg yolk to sleep. After watching for a while, he said, "The tip is the butt, and the round end is the head."

Luo An just put his butt on the pillow.

Luo An: "... Egg Yolk likes to put his butt on the pillow, can't he?

Having said that, turn the egg yolks upside down.

Jiang Jiyao: "The nutrient solution is ready, I'll put it in later."

Luo An glanced at the nutrient tank he pushed over. The nutrient solution in it was half a meter high, but their egg yolk was only a little bigger, so he couldn't help but worry: "With so much nutrient solution, won't it be submerged?"

Jiang Jiyao: "It can swim."

Luo An was shocked: "Eggs can swim?"

After a while, put the egg yolk into the water tank, and Luo An found that it not only could swim, but also swam quite well. During the swimming process, the air holes at the tip were kept upward, and half of the eggs were exposed on the water.

Luo An stretched his hand in, it was like a fish seeing bait, it swam over instantly, rolled a few times in Luo An's hand, and then swam to other places.

Jiang Jiyao looked at the time, it was already 03:30 in the morning, he hugged Luo An's shoulders and persuaded him: "Go to sleep first, the egg yolk will fall asleep later."

Luo An looked at the egg yolk reluctantly, and sat on the bed step by step, not closing his eyes until Jiang Jiyao turned off the light.

In the darkness, the little white egg in the sink suddenly became transparent after absorbing water all over its body, like a bulging water polo, revealing a shiny little guy curled up inside.

It also looked at the scene in front of it in amazement, and really wanted to tear off the eggshell and crawl out, but the eggshell was so strong, and its claws were still soft, with no strength at all.

The egg yolk was so angry that he knocked on the eggshell a few times, it was so annoying.

I could only stick the whole egg on the glass of the sink, looking at everything in the bedroom curiously, and suddenly met a pair of silver eyes on the bed.

Yeah.

father!

Through the glass, the egg yolk began to rattle against the sink, wanting to play with dad, now it can be seen!

But Jiang Jiyao made a gesture of silence, mouthing: Don't wake Luo An.

If he finds out that he can see you through the eggshell, he probably won't sleep tonight.
