Big and small bags were scattered all over the ground, and Zhi Xi also fell to the ground. She rubbed her nose tearfully and apologized, while looking up at the person she bumped into, then she was stunned.

It's a big guy.

She should have bumped into his leg just now, and her thick and strong thigh knocked her nose hard. Looking at it again, ah, the wrist is probably thicker than her calf.

Although she was the one who suffered the most, but no matter what, it was someone else she bumped into, and she should apologize out of reason. Thinking this way, and because the apology just now didn't get a response from the other party, Zhi Xi resisted being scratched just now Standing up because of the pain in the palm of his left hand, he bowed sincerely to the other party: "I'm really sorry, it was my fault just now, I hope I didn't cause you any trouble."

One second, two seconds... three seconds passed without any response.

She bent over a little sore, and couldn't help raising her head slightly to observe his expression, but before she could do so, her scalp ached - the other party even reached out and grabbed her hair and dragged it forward vigorously!

Zhi Xi was startled and in pain, grabbed her partner with both hands and was about to grab the thick arm and shift her weight to him, but just as she raised her hand, the strong man grabbed her both hands with great precaution. Pushing hard in front of him, he raised his knee and slammed into her abdomen at the same time: "You brat who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth—"

The difference in strength was too great, she couldn't break free, she could only watch the bent knee that was as wide as her body hit her abdomen straight——

The strength of the hand that restrained her suddenly disappeared.

Something warm liquid splashed on the arm.Everything happened so fast that Zhi Xi didn't have time to react, she felt her body suddenly suspended in the air, and a strong man's mournful howling came from beside her ear: "Ah——"

Then, as soon as her arm was cold, the hand on her arm suddenly disappeared, and the man whom she said to "call the police" just now put her down. He looked down at her, and held her again. hands.

"I told you, don't walk alone at night during this time."

"..." Zhi Xi stared blankly at him.

"Master, please listen carefully." The man seemed to sigh very lightly, took out a tissue from his pocket, wiped off the blood stained on her hands slowly, and took a few steps with a sense of public morality, took the tissue The ball was stuffed into the mouth of the strong man who fell to the ground.

After finishing all this, he turned around, stretched out a hand and shook it in front of the still sluggish little girl: "Are you scared? Come back to your senses."

Zhi Xi was stunned, she was obviously still immersed in the sudden incident just now and couldn't react, her eyes rolled, and she looked not far away——

The man covered her eyes with his hand at the right time: "It's better for girls not to look at these things."

He cast a disgusted glance in the direction the girl was going to look, and the pair of severed hands he had cut off were still lying in a dark corner where the streetlights couldn't reach them, like rotten fruits that were dripping water.On the other side, the strong man whose skin was severely burned by the extremely fine flames he controlled was already unconscious, with a blood-stained paper ball still in his mouth, and he was no longer a threat.

Zhi Xi swallowed her saliva, regained her spirit a bit, and asked tremblingly, "Um... did you kill him?"

The man paused his hands and said with a light smile, "How could it be, it just made him pass out."

Although... life is better than death.

Zhi Xi tentatively stretched out his hand, and took away the hand covering her eyes. The man didn't oppose her, he put down his hand, and he bent down to pick up the scattered things for her again, "I bought a new one." Skirt?" He looked at the clothes that fell out of the paper bag with interest, stuffed it back and handed it to her, "It's okay, I can see it."

"..."

Zhi Xi really couldn't figure out what kind of brain circuit this person had just happened to act like a normal person, and even had the leisure to tease her—but he had to admit that being treated like this by him As soon as she interrupted, her originally frightened mood rose a little to the normal level.

"Is there anything you like?"

Taking the paper bag, Zhi Xi raised her head and asked.

The man was suddenly asked by her, but he didn't react for a few seconds, he paused, and said, "What's the matter?"

The girl looked straight at him, but now she completely lost the panic just now, and instead became more serious, "You saved my life, and I want to repay you."

"..." He didn't respond right away, but took a step forward, bent down and approached her ear: "Is everything okay?"

When the man asked this, the hot breath from his breath gently brushed over Zhixi's ears and neck, sweeping like a feather, making her shrug her shoulders itchyly, "Anything is fine—it's possible for a house or a car." I need to save some money, and I will give it to you within a year."

She spoke so sincerely, so sincerely that those who originally wanted to tease her were shocked by this passage and were unable to react for a while.He straightened up, couldn't help himself, and gave her a strange look, "...Did you scare your brain out just now?"

Zhi Xi looked at him injured, "This is serious business with you, why do you attack me personally?"

"..." The man was silent for a long time without words, and finally sighed.

"I don't like anything, little girl," he stretched out a hand and placed it on Zhixi's head, "If you can be obedient and stop walking alone at night, it will be my reward. "

Zhi Xi was very vigilant: "What kind of gentle senior's speech was that just now? Would you be so kind?"

"..."

The man rubbed her hair into a mess with a blank expression, and while the girl complained softly, he bent his finger and pointed a steel hammer at her forehead, "Well, you're right, how could I be so kind? Now, Let me go home."

"Wow, it hurts—I know!"

……

It was almost 10:30 when Zhixi returned home.

She raised her bangs and looked in the mirror, and as expected, she saw a faint red mark on her forehead.

The girl frowned slightly.

She actually saw it, the strong man lying on the side.

No matter what reason he attacked her,...she noticed the scars on his body afterwards.

It was the marks of burns, and the faint burnt smell in the air at that time also coincided with this point.

However, she didn't see the fire... the orange fire, she didn't see it.

Just recalling it carefully, it seems that at a certain moment, there was a faint blue flash in the corner of the eye.

Is it an illusion.

When going to school the next day, Zhixi was called to the office during recess.

In the office, besides Teacher Midnight, there is Xiongying's principal and a young man in a police uniform.

This battle is a bit big, she almost thinks that she has committed a crime, "I don't know Zhixi, right?" Be kind: "On behalf of the police station where I work, I'm here to ask you some information, and I hope you can cooperate with our investigation."

"Ah, yes, please tell me."

警官的双眼从手头的资料上扫过,抬眸看向她:“昨晚21:40到22:20的这四10分钟时间里,你在哪?”

Zhi Xi's heart skipped a beat.

She probably knew why the police were here.

"At that time, I was on my way home, because I went to the city center to buy some things, so I got home late."

Without much hesitation, Zhi Xi replied calmly.

Midnight was a little weak next to him: "Recently, martial law has been enforced by Xiongying, why are you returning so late?"

Zhi Xi: "I'm sorry..."

When she was obediently being scolded with her head bowed, the policeman coughed lightly and pulled out a photo from the file folder, "According to the surveillance footage we obtained from the downstairs of Apartment No. 1, your answer did meet our expectations. ——Then what do you have?" Have you ever met this person?"

It was the strong man she met last night.

It's dangerous... Fortunately, she didn't lie just now. It turned out that the police officer's first question was to test whether she would lie.Knowing this, Zhi Xi faintly felt a cold sweat on her back, but after thinking about it carefully, no matter what the current situation was, this strong man had nothing to do with her, so she felt a little relieved.

She confessed honestly: "Yes, I accidentally bumped into him on the way home after getting off the bus... Then he attacked me."

The girl's answer made the hearts of the three adults in the office tense at the same time, "Student, are you injured?! Do you need to go to the doctor now?" Before midnight, the police officer asked anxiously.

Zhi Xi was taken aback by his posture, and shook her head: "I'm fine... a passerby saved me."

"The man who launched an attack on you is Maruyama Toru, a fugitive who has been hunted down for two years. His personality is 'Tiger Head Fist', and his fists almost have the power to split mountains and rocks - saved from his attack Who is yours?"

The principal, who had been silent after introducing himself, spoke suddenly.

Zhi Xi was taken aback.

She really didn't expect that strong man to have such a strong personality.

Everything happened so fast last night, she didn't even have time to react, the strong man - Maruyama Toru was knocked to the ground, and even though the man covered her eyes, Zhixi probably guessed Maruyama's hands Being cut down, from when she was almost attacked to when Maruyama fell to the ground, it was just a blink of an eye.

Zhi Xi had thought that the strength of the man with whom she had a three-way bond could not be underestimated... but she never expected it to be to this extent.

"He..." After a moment of silence, she answered: "I don't know who he is, I only know that he is very thin, and his age...should not be very old. I didn't see him using his personality."

Everything she said was true.

But he cleverly concealed the fact that he had seen that man long ago.

The clue seemed to be interrupted just like that, the police officer recorded the information just obtained, asked Zhi Xi a few more detailed questions, and asked her to go back to class first.

Closing the office door, Zhi Xi let out a small sigh of relief, only to realize that a little sweat was secreted from the palms of her hands, sticking to the unhealed wound, causing a trace of pain.

As soon as she turned her head, she met the eyes of the boy who was a few steps away.
