Wu Liang
The Doctor smiled and squatted down to look at him, "But you're not human, so why are you pretending to be like a human?"
Sheng Qingqiao clutched her wounded abdomen tightly, her voice trembling, "I don't understand what you're saying. Why did you kill me?"
I just want you to leave.
"My friend is mine, and I don't want anyone else to steal his attention." The Doctor clasped his hands together, a smile spreading across his face. "You want to steal my Master's mission? So, I'll just have to ask you to die for me?"
The Scalpel drew a beautiful silver arc in the air, and as it fell, a Broadsword blocked Sheng Qingqiao's path, deflecting the Scalpel.
Wu Liang quickly retracted the nimble Scalpel, tenderly stroking its tip. This was a gift from the True Form; he couldn't let it be harmed by this creature's Weird Object.
Sheng Qingqiao, holding Broadsword, propped herself up and loosened her grip on her abdominal wound, which had completely healed.
At this moment, the Mei Family's patrolling guards pushed through the crowd and arrived in time.
The leader was an acquaintance, Mei Long. Their team had cooperated in the Casino Instance before, and it was unexpected to run into them here.
"Doctor, this is the territory of the Mei Family Clan. Please stop your actions immediately." Mei Long was not surprised to see the two and skillfully stepped in front of Sheng Qingqiao.
Wu Liang: "It's you again."
"It's me," Mei Long nodded. "I've got some leads on the person who impersonated the organization last time. I wonder if you'd be interested in this information?"
Wu Liang adjusted his glasses and smiled, "That's great, thank you for letting me know."
"These were the terms we agreed on, no need for thanks." Mei Long pulled his leather jacket tighter and gestured, "So, it's been a pleasant cooperation. Also, Mr. Sheng Qingqiao was invited by the Mei Family to help us investigate this incident; we will not interfere with the organization's cleanup plan."
"Our duty is to protect this city, so we cannot ignore those who impersonate an organization and cause trouble. Mr. Sheng Qingqiao is not yet aware of the plan, but please rest assured, we are all doing this for the city."
Wu Liang slowly looked at Sheng Qingqiao, who was then slapped on the back by Mei Long Sheng Qingqiao.
He chuckled dryly as he sheathed the knife, "Hahaha, good."
"So it was a misunderstanding." Wu Liang sheathed his knife and said apologetically, "I'm sorry I hurt you. If you need anything next time we meet, just let me know. I'm very grateful to have people like you protecting this city."
You're welcome, it's what we should do.
Wu Liang turned and left, quickly disappearing into the crowd.
"Is this person really from the organization?" Sheng Qingqiao, watching his retreating figure.
"Besides those people from that organization, who else could have such abilities? His Scalpel must be guided by the Rules that sharpness guarantees injury; I've seen him kill with a single, decisive blow every time he kills someone."
"If I had arrived later, your injuries wouldn't be what they are now," Mei Long said, looking at the knife wound on his abdomen. "You healed your wound with Weird Object? So quickly."
"Ah, right." Sheng Qingqiao subconsciously scratched the back of her head and chuckled dryly, "He was here a few days ago? This organization really has people everywhere."
Mei Long said, "I heard he used to be Doctor here, but not many people knew him. However, nowadays, not many people go to see Doctors; they all use Weird Objects for treatment, so it's not surprising that not many people know him."
"If he hadn't suddenly become active these past few days, killing several imposters from the organization, we wouldn't have noticed him."
"Be careful if you run into him again. Actually, he's not a bad person. He doesn't have a bad temper and doesn't kill indiscriminately." Mei Long felt that he was easier to manage than his other demon teammates, as long as he found the right approach.
Sheng Qingqiao: "Not much of a temper? He just stabbed me in the back!"
"The premise is that you don't clash with the friends or Masters he talks about," Mei Long said. "He seems to have a strong possessiveness towards the Masters and friends he speaks of. As long as you avoid that, he's very easy to talk to."
"Don't argue with him. He's quick to strike, always hitting vitals, and his attacks are unpredictable. He's not easy to deal with."
Sheng Qingqiao nodded, her hand unconsciously touching her newly healed wound, then smiled at Mei Long and said, "Alright, alright, I know. Aren't you looking for those people impersonating the organization? Any news?"
Yes, do you want to go take a look?
"Yes, we have to go!"
On the second Vest afternoon, the shop was nearly empty. Lin Nieran closed early and returned to his territory to improve Bai Yang 'Bai Yang card and upgrade him.
Bai Yang will be bringing others in a couple of days, and his own abilities should also be improved.
He had just sat down on the sofa and turned on the system when Moonlit Night came out of the guest room and was taken aback when she saw him.
"You're back?" Lin Nieran turned his head. "When did you get back? How's it going over there?"
"It's a bit strange, but overall there's no danger, except for a rather large energy barrier." Moonlit Night sat at the living room table, slowly making tea. "I looked around the area, but didn't find anything."
"The Authorities didn't suffer many casualties either. I think the body could have been an accident, but my brother thinks it might be part of some incomplete SS -S-Class Aberration Instance."
Lin Nieran frowned; this sounded ominous.
"System, is the subsequent rapid and bizarre changes in the world related to this inexplicably appearing energy barrier?"
007 nodded. [Yes, these energy barriers can quickly increase the energy of the supernatural beings and enhance their abilities.]
"We need to go and check it out. If we can find the source, we'll understand." Lin Nieran pinched the bridge of his nose. What exactly happened in the Lily Weird Zone? It was the first place to have problems when the ghosts appeared, and now it's the first to mutate.
Could there be something special about that place?
What could be special...? Lin Nieran shook his head, no longer thinking about it, and said, "You should rest well. By the way, have you decided what to do with the room?"
Lin Nieran allocated two rooms for Moonlit Night and Night Moon, but Night Moon and Moonlit Night said that one room was enough for them. They would live together for the rest of their lives, and although their hobbies were slightly different, they didn't have many.
Now, Moonlit Night dedicates half of her time each day to Night Moon, and the two take turns appearing together.
"I've made up my mind." Moonlit Night nodded obediently.
Lin Nieran helped Moonlit Night choose some items for a while, and Moonlit Night brought him back some more Weird Object, which not only made up for some of the Points he had spent these days, but also gave him quite a few more.
Lin Nieran gave Moonlit Night a bunch of cards Lin Nieran sent her off to renovate her own house.
He had just stepped out under the Moonlit Night when he encountered Ji Fengbai at the door.
The rest of the cards were out doing missions, but the Writer looked sickly, which is why the Master and allowed him to choose the best spot, the one closest to him.
"My Master has something to attend to. I happen to not know how to use these things, so please help me." Moonlit Night smiled and squeezed aside the missing hand behind the Wheelchair, then pushed Ji Fengbai's Wheelchair away.
Ji Fengbai:... He must write a Rules that no one else can push away!!
