Ning Ning is a smart boy.

She doesn't have many relatives, only her, mother, and grandmother.The happiest moment every day is when my mother praises her as a good child when she comes home. The most annoying thing is being chased by my mother to brush her teeth after eating the cookies before going to bed.

But her mother hadn't been home for days.It turned out that there was a grandmother who took care of her, but later she also fell ill and was hospitalized.Strangers now come and go in her house all day long.Occasionally someone shed a few tears at her and asked her why she didn't cry with her.

Ning Ning will not cry.Mom said that only cowardly children cry all the time.

She hated strange visitors who invaded her and her mother's home.So she shut herself in her room and ignored them, occasionally exercising her child's prerogative: making noise and screaming to drive them all away.

A few days later, the person who took care of her became the neighbor across the door.But Lingju's family also has a child of his own, crying and making noise all day long, Ningning finds him annoying and doesn't like to play with him.

After kindergarten, she sat downstairs with her little ball in her arms, waiting for her mother to come home.

She kicked the ball alone, from dusk to when the street lights came on, and the lights made her shadow very long.

Suddenly, the ball rolled into a dark corner.

The surrounding walls and trees cast thick black shadows.Ning Ning was a little scared, she felt that if she walked into that dark place, she would not be able to breathe.

She hesitated on the spot for two seconds, ran over, and picked up her ball.

Suddenly, a figure appeared at the end of the road.

The woman with long hair and black dress swayed towards her in high heels through the dim night.

I say "Shake" because her walking posture is extremely unnatural, like a shadow puppet manipulated by a pole, stumbling forward.

Even though they were far away and couldn't see the other person's face clearly, Ning Ning recognized the clothes she was wearing at a glance.

"mom!"

Ning Ning yelled in surprise, and ran towards the figure holding the ball.

The shadow in front of him suddenly trembled and became a soft swamp. From the shadow, two extremely pale hands quietly stretched out... as if they were ready to grab the girl's legs at any time.

Suddenly, someone shouted from behind:

"Ningning."

Ning Ning turned her head subconsciously.

Where she didn't notice, the distorted figures and the swaying dark swamp all disappeared without a trace following the call.

Ning Ning watched a person walk over.

That person had a pair of dark blue eyes that Ningning had never seen before, and they were more beautiful than all the glass marbles she had ever seen.He walked slowly in the darkness, as if his whole body was glowing.

He walked up to Ning Ning, squatted down with a smile, and said, "Are you Ning Ning?"

Ning Ning nodded hesitantly.

"It's very late." The other party said, "Good children should go home and go to bed."

"But my mother is still—"

Ning Ning turned her head.

There was no sign of anyone in the empty alleyway.

……

Ning Xuelan's daughter, her surname is Ning, her name is Ning, and it is read consecutively as "Ning Ning". She has a playful and well-behaved taste.

This name may also contain Ning Xuelan's sustenance for her daughter.

To be honest, Si Qingxuan was shocked when he saw this child.

The ghost, who was controlled by others, put on Ning Xuelan's skin and abducted the child openly in front of Ning Xuelan's house.

If he came a few minutes later, I'm afraid the child would not be seen.

Holding the ball, Ning Ning sat with Si Qingxuan on the bench next to the street lamp, her fair and tender face wrinkled into a bun.

"Big brother."

"Ok?"

"Did big brother help me just now?" Ning Ning asked, "Help me drive away the bad guys."

Si Qingxuan smiled and asked her: "How do you know?"

"Because that person, although she looks a lot like my mother, is not my mother." Ning Ning lowered her head, staring at the dinosaur pattern on the ball, "If it was my mother, she would not abandon me if she heard me calling her Disappeared by itself."

"Since she is wearing her mother's clothes and pretending to be her mother, she is trying to trick me away. She is either a bad person, or the kind of human trafficker that adults say is specialized in abducting and selling children!"

Si Qingxuan patted Ning Ning's head: "That's right."

After a few words, Si Qingxuan can basically confirm that this is a somewhat different child.She is very smart.

But from what she said, she didn't seem to know what happened to her own mother.

She is still waiting for her mother to come home.

Si Qingxuan didn't know if Ning Ning could clearly understand the concept of "life" and "death", and he also didn't know why no one came to Ning Ning to explain these things to her so far.

But Si Qingxuan did not forget the purpose of his trip.

"How to read this child's memory?" He asked the system.

[It's very simple, just let the child fall into a dream.Don't worry, it won't do her any harm, it's just a dream after all. 】

"Ning Ning, do you want to see your mother?" After thinking for a while, Si Qingxuan decided to ask the child in front of him directly.

Ningning nodded.

"Then you go home now and go to bed obediently. In your dream, you can see your mother."

"……Really?"

"Well, I promise."

For some reason, Ning Ning really believed what Si Qingxuan said.She quickly ran into the entrance of the corridor happily holding the ball, as light as a baby swallow returning to its nest, and full of expectations.

【High Priest, you can actually let her sleep outside... Now we have to climb her window, what a hassle. 】

"It's all over, good children should go home and sleep." Si Qingxuan said in a non-negotiable tone, "This sentence is indeed not just for coaxing children."

【alright, I got it.Anyway, with your current skills, it is more than enough to climb the third floor.You just need to be careful not to be seen by nearby surveillance, community security, and residents who occasionally open windows to see the scenery.It just takes a little luck and I'm sure you'll be successful. 】

Si Qingxuan felt that the system was somewhat yin and yang.

But Si Qingxuan quickly realized that it was a bit embarrassing to pick someone's window, especially a little girl's window.

Si Qingxuan sat on the window sill, the wind brushed against his chest, and he felt his neck was a little cold.

Fortunately, he only needs to let Ningning fall asleep within his sight, and he can read her memory.

"Although it is reading the memory, try not to let her have nightmares." Si Qingxuan said.

[I found that you really have extraordinary patience with this human cub. 】

Si Qingxuan didn't answer.

He just activated the illusion library silently, watching the transparent pages flip above the sleeping child's head.Gradually, some words appeared on those blank papers.

……

Ning Xuelan, apart from her refined beauty, is nothing special to look at.But in Ningning's mind, it is full of warm memories with her.

However, occasionally there will be some unpleasantness.

Ning Xuelan's family background is not bad, she is also pretty, and there are many suitors around her.

Instead, the biggest problem became Ning Ning.

Ningning once heard her mother and grandmother quarreling:

"...Didn't you get on well with him before? Why didn't you continue talking with him because he was so good?"

"Talk? What's there to talk about. He doesn't like our family Ningning. Although he didn't say it, I can feel it."

"Which man can like the child you had with your ex-husband? As long as he puts you in his heart, it's fine? You're not young this year, and you won't be able to meet better ones if you wait any longer.... Let me raise Ning Ning. I am her biological grandmother, can I still harm her? You can also visit her during the holidays, isn't this the best of both worlds?"

"It's the best of both worlds! Mom, don't worry about it. I can decide these things myself."

"Could it be that you've been single like this? Single forever?"

At that time, what Ning Ning thought was, if you don't get married, you don't get married. Why does grandma care so much about whether her mother is married or not?

Just like other people always looked at her strangely when they heard that she didn't have a father.

People in this world are always different.There are good ones and bad ones, smart ones and stupid ones, some full-bodied ones, and some limbless ones... Sometimes, the difference between people is greater than the difference between people and dogs.

What's wrong with having a husband?What's wrong with dad?Can you have two more nostrils than normal people?

Ning Ning was puzzled, even a little angry.

But later, Ning Ning also gradually understood: Ning Xuelan is just an ordinary person.Although she is not weak, she can occasionally be overwhelmed by the burden of running the store and caring for her daughter alone.No one understands her, no one takes care of her...

Mother's life is not only to be Ningning's mother, but also to be herself.She wants a partner.

Later, that person finally appeared.

"Stop, stop." Si Qingxuan said, "Since Ning Xuelan has a love partner...why doesn't Ningning's face appear in his memory?"

[Look carefully.What was Ning Xuelan's reaction after she fell in love? She hugged her mobile phone all day long, giggling and giggling.It seems that this is online dating. 】

Si Qingxuan: "..." Is this all right?

At the same time, Ning Xuelan also began to gradually change her original dressing style. Her makeup became strong and charming, but most of her wardrobe was black skirts. There was a more violent reaction.

Until one day, Ning Xuelan excitedly ran up to Ning Ning and asked her, "Ning Ning, do you think it would look better if mom raised her nose?"

It turned out that Ning Xuelan planned to meet with netizens.

She feels that she is not beautiful enough now... at least not perfect in the nose.

So she went to the hospital for micro-surgery.After the operation, I went to see her friends.

Oddly enough, this meeting seemed very unpleasant.When Ning Xuelan went there, she was as coquettish as a shy rose, but when she came back, her face was smeared with makeup.

However, the bad luck didn't stop there.

One day, Ning Xuelan suddenly screamed at herself in the mirror.

……

【That's all for the recent memories related to Ning Xuelan──I have to say, this is really a keen child.Ordinary human cubs eat, drink and play all day long, and don't pay attention to so many things at all.And she can show us these memories completely because she understands and remembers them all, and there seems to be no big fallacy in logic. 】

With these memories, they can be considered to have obtained new clues.

The mysterious netizen that Ning Xuelan contacted was very suspicious.

Si Qingxuan thought for a while, took out his mobile phone and sent an email to the private detective who had worked with him.

【You want someone to investigate that mysterious netizen Ning Xuelan?Seriously, if the mysterious netizen is the murderer, then the other party can control the ghost, and the power of the ghost can be used by him-this means that he can easily change his appearance.Even though he had met Ning Xuelan and might have left some traces, trying to find him out of the crowd was like looking for a needle in a haystack. 】

"No. This is not the direction of my investigation." Si Qingxuan said casually, "The other party may be a master of disguise, but he may not be proficient in modern science."

What Si Qingxuan had to do was to decipher Ning Xuelan's private chat account, find out the mysterious netizen from the chat history, and then directly inquire his address.

The private detective quickly replied: The account of the mysterious person has been identified, but to pinpoint it accurately, the other person needs to be online for a while.And the other party has not logged in to that account for several days, and may have abandoned this account.

Si Qingxuan thought for a while, turned on the phone, clicked a selfie, then opened the chat software, cut the photo to the eye part, replaced it with his own profile picture, and then used his account to add that mysterious person as a friend.

"If I remember correctly, he was greedy for my eyes." Si Qingxuan said, "If you are lucky, he will take the initiative to find me."

[You are really a master at fishing. 】

"Thank you." Si Qingxuan stretched his waist and looked at the drowsy sky. Although he was not very tired, he still yawned, "It's time to sleep."

The villa that was messed up by two phase ghosts before was still being sorted out, Si Qingxuan randomly picked a pleasing penthouse apartment in his real estate and lived in it.

Now his sleep quality is not the same as before. Give him a comfortable bed and he can fall asleep.It felt like coming back to...

Si Qingxuan's eyes suddenly darkened.

He hesitated for a moment, opened the friend list of the chat software, and slid his thumb down—most of the people lying in his friend list were former classmates, online or offline, and their avatars were either clear or dark, but Si Qingxuan didn't care. to understand.

Soon, his eyes stopped on a certain name.

The system shows that the other party is online.

"..." Si Qingxuan laughed at himself.

He thought he had completely deleted that person's contact information—unexpectedly, there was such an uncommonly used software, which contained an account that he hadn't logged in for a long time, and that person's account was still in the friend list of the account exist.

Si Qingxuan really hates the feeling of occasionally looking for traces of his past life, only to find that he used to have the other party everywhere in his life.

Question: When I was surfing in the middle of the night, I saw that my ex-boyfriend who had been missing for half a year was actually online, what should I do?

Si Qingxuan sneered, typed three words in the chat box, and clicked send.

*

At the same time, on a small coastal island in the south.

The lone moon hangs high, like a luminous mirror embedded in the spreading night sky.The hard rocks were so dark that they almost merged with the black waves, whose fringes shone with pearly white.

A group of people standing on the beach.They were busy arranging all kinds of heavy weapons, but they didn't make any sound, quietly as if they wanted to blend into the night.

Suddenly, the sound of the sea breeze seemed to weaken.

A slender black shadow came up from the deep sea.

A huge, black-scaled snake's head poked out of the water.It raised its neck and soared into the sky, and the broken waves fell into the sea, making an astonishing sound.

"... At 22:06 midnight, the aquatic disaster 'Snake of Disaster', numbered A-D[-], the target has appeared."

"The action begins!"

Booming gunshots and artillery blasted in the night sky, rushing towards the giant snake on the beach, and the artillery fire fell on the snake's body like a rain of flowers.

The giant snake was in pain, and the snake's head dodged slightly, and the golden vertical pupils burst out with brilliant gold.The scales on its body rustled and moved, and it was plated with a layer of light bronze color, reflecting the cold halo.

Talent · Metallization.

It raised its tail and swept heavily on the beach, destroying most of the shells that had been arranged in an instant, and those who were too late to escape were directly crushed into the sand.

"...missile track locked."

"Launch immediately!"

Several powerful missiles were launched from the hidden jungle.

This was their tactic, to attract the giant snake's attention with firepower and manpower on the beach, and then attack its head with missiles.

bump!bump!

The loud noise was accompanied by flames blooming on the snake's head.The giant snake spat out its snake letters, screaming and being knocked into the water.The dark scales, the smelly snake blood, and the seawater turned into rain and splashed down, blurring people's vision... But they still dare not relax a bit.

"...Is it dead?" The commander said out of breath, not sure whether he was asking the people around him or himself.

The water calmed down for a moment.

Just as their spirits relaxed for a moment, the giant snake suddenly jumped out of the dark water waves, roaring and rushing towards the beach.

Several bloody holes were cut out of its body, rotten flesh and exposed nerves hung grimly on its body, exposing pale but smooth bones.

...it metallized its own bones!

The commander took a deep breath and decisively chose to report to his superiors: "The firepower clearing failed, request for support, request for support!"

At the same time, a young man with short chestnut hair yawned in a helicopter hovering high in the sky.His complexion is fair, and he is wearing a dark combat uniform, but the expression on his face is very lively.

"It's almost eleven o'clock." He complained bitterly, "I'm going to stay up late again tonight. Boss, we have already received five night missions in a row this month. If this continues, my mutation The value is going to go up!"

Awakened people with talents also have the risk of losing control.

It is difficult for them to be awakened.

As time goes by, talent will bring irreversible changes to their minds, and will continue to impact their sanity as humans.We can only try our best to upgrade their talents and step into a new level, so as to reduce the influence of talents on them.

As the awakened ones, they need to eliminate disasters, and fight all kinds of weird disasters to the death every day.If you are lucky, you can evolve your talent, but if you are unlucky, your san value will drop completely, and you will completely lose your mind.

The young man with chestnut hair complained a few words, but he just wanted their boss to stop being a model worker and take more vacations.The donkeys in the production team don't work like them!

"do you have any opinion?"

To this, his boss—the black-haired man sitting in front of him didn't give a positive reply, but he glanced over and made the young man speechless.

"OK, I'll shut up." The young man made a zipper motion on his lips with his fingers.

The remaining young people in the helicopter gloated and exchanged glances, in which it was written, "You deserve it for talking."

The man they called the boss sat by the window, staring at the giant snake struggling on the beach through the clouds.

His side face is as quiet and lonely as the moonlight in the sky, but his eyes are firm and sharp, like a knife edge wrapped in silk, it is difficult to judge the trajectory of the falling knife, but it makes people subconsciously breathe lightly.

"Your mutation value has increased?" He said, his voice was like breaking ice.

"Ah? Hmm..." The young man replied subconsciously.

There is no clear monitoring method for the variation value, and it can only be judged by checking the mental state of the awakened person.

Although he still likes to gag with his teammates recently, he really feels that he has not been able to cheer up recently.

In this case, it is time to rest for a few days.

But that's for ordinary awakened people, not for high-level awakened people like them... So, he only complained a few words, and would not really refuse to work.

"I see." The man nodded.

The young man froze for a moment, and saw the black robe flying in front of him, and the person in front of him jumped off the helicopter without saying a word.

The young man was dumbfounded: "Boss!"

"I don't mean to ask you to work for me!"

"I just want to complain, and if I want to refuse, I want to remind you to apply for a few days of vacation for our team!!"

"Stop yelling, Boss can't hear you." The teammate next to him couldn't help but said, "It's still on vacation, you think well. Boss would rather do all the work by himself than apply for a vacation."

Because their team has a special system, if they want to take a vacation, the whole team must take it together, so as not to be short-handed when the task is completed.

"Does he have a grudge against Holiday?" the young man with chestnut hair said incredulously.

"Perhaps you are working hard for the sake of all mankind." The team member shrugged, "How dare you complain—without the achievements of the boss, how can we get so much higher treatment than other formations? Just because of your superb fishing ability ?”

"Hey, this is a personal attack! Forget it, let's see how the battle is going. Has the snake been roasted by our captain?"

"...You don't have the brain to perform the mission just by looking at it! The talent of the evil snake is metallization, and now its bones are also metallized, no matter how much you bake it, it will only melt. How can you talk about familiarity!"

"Metallization." The chestnut-haired young man poked his head out to look at the battle situation under his eyes. Clusters of flames shot up into the sky. Even if they were sitting in the helicopter, they could still feel the blazing temperature of the sea of ​​flames. Wrapped, the shadow is no longer visible, "Do you want me to go down and do a favor?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the snake head of the evil snake struggled out of the flames.Its skin and flesh have been completely burned, and the silver metal skeleton is also slowly turning into liquid under the licking of the tongue of fire, dripping into the sea water.But the body of the evil snake is too huge, moving in the flames and steam, like a struggling ghost.

Talent · Hellfire.

Different from ordinary fire-type talents, "Hellfire" is a conceptual talent, which is aimed at the concept of "life": as long as the enemy is not dead, the flame will never go out.

At the same time, the aura on the sea soared wildly, like a small hurricane.The non-awakened and lower-level staff retreated one after another, for fear of being affected by this battle.

"Looking at the snake's flopping, it's not worth the san value." The young man with chestnut hair muttered to himself, "I'd better go and help."

As he spoke, he tidied up his parachute, checked the communicator and the oxygen supply device, took a step forward, and jumped out of the helicopter.

The steam on the sea blew his parachute sideways.

Teammates: "..."

I knew this kid was unreliable!

But soon, a few seconds later, a thin layer of ice suddenly appeared on the sea surface.

The pale cold air was swept up by the sea breeze, and then turned into light snowflakes and fell, forming cold ice on the silvery white snake's head.

Talent Freezing Point.

The talent of the chestnut-haired young man is the ability to drop liquids below freezing point, simply put, it is the ability to suddenly cool them down.

In the next second, the huge snake head stopped swinging. Like a statue, the bones on its body were covered with gaps like spider veins, and then cracked inch by inch.

This involves a very basic physical knowledge - thermal expansion and contraction.

In fact, common knowledge of physics may not be effective for these weird creatures, but the evil snake seems to be relatively backward in talent evolution due to its huge size. Even if it achieves full-body metallization, the metal itself does not have extraordinary hardness.

So far, the crusade of the A-level calamity snake has been completed.

The commanding officer ordered that ships be dispatched immediately to catch the wreckage of the Snake.

In the moonlight, the waves crashed peacefully onto the beach.

The black-haired man was dressed in a black robe, standing on the beach, the knuckles on his hands had been burned to ashes by the flames, exposing his white and slender knuckles.

Suddenly, the phone in his pocket lit up.

He took out his mobile phone and only glanced at it before his eyes were fixed on the screen of the mobile phone, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

[You have an unread message from 'Baby'. ]

The man froze for a few seconds, rubbed his fingertips, and said with a complicated mood:

[Baby: I'll die for you. ]
