Date: October 7th
Seeing this phenomenon, Yang Xiaoyou's expression changed slightly. Faced with the imposing figure, he had no interest in competing in strength. He decisively abandoned the half-dead Sun Jun and chose to retreat, preparing to confront this unexpected guest with all his might.
The half-dead Sun Jun no longer posed a threat to him. Although the figure before him was likely much stronger, it was not impossible to fight back with his weapon. Having just evaded his own attack, the figure's body twisted at an angle; at such speed, it couldn't possibly be unscathed.
"Hah," upon seeing Yang Xiaoyou retreat, the figure cloaked in black let out a light laugh. Then, raising a hand, he directly tore off Sun Jun's already battered arm.
After breaking free from his restraints, he held onto Sun Jun and charged toward the shattered bowl, disregarding the fact that they were on the eighteenth floor of a high-rise building. Without any intention of engaging Yang Xiaoyou, he jumped straight out through the opening.
"Tsk," witnessing this situation, Yang Xiaoyou stepped forward to the broken bowl's edge, watching as the figure glided like a bat toward another building across the street.
Seeing this scene, Yang Xiaoyou's expression darkened.
Releasing such a thing would lead to great disaster. Even if they were not planning to create a large-scale infection event here, just leaving Sun Jun alive could bring him trouble.
As for whether the other party had seen his skills, that seemed inconsequential. Even if they were part of an organization’s Suppressor unit, due to their inherent uncertainty, they were merely tools for the organization. Most Suppressors wouldn’t genuinely dedicate themselves unless compelled by drugs.
The likelihood of reporting the situation was high, but whether it would be taken seriously was uncertain.
The immediate priority was to disinfect this area; otherwise, even if the virus had a short survival time in the air, there was still a risk of spreading.
"Woo woo woo," fire trucks blared their sirens as they navigated through the city streets toward Chenghai Shipping Building.
At that moment, Yang Xiaoyou walked alongside Nobunaga Hideyoshi on one side of the road, both slightly smeared with soot.
After setting a fire, Yang Xiaoyou led Nobunaga Hideyoshi down through the opening using their equipment and successfully landed away from Cheng Da Building.
"Take these photos; I believe you can handle this matter well," Yang Xiaoyou said lightly to Nobunaga Hideyoshi as he glanced at the approaching fire trucks.
Nobunaga Hideyoshi's visit to sign contracts was not a big secret; it was only a matter of time before they found out about him. In times like these, having something in hand for self-preservation was essential.
Due to the controlled scale of the infection incident at Chenghai Shipping Building, those outside were almost completely unaware of what had transpired inside.
Believing that the information about the government aspects would not be publicly announced to avoid panic, Nobunaga Hideyoshi thought that a calm yet tense approach was the most likely choice. Given this, he realized that there was room for maneuvering, and self-preservation was definitely not an issue.
Hearing Yang Xiaoyou's words, Nobunaga Hideyoshi's expression became somewhat strange. Although his inner self had already told him that this was indeed Aser, the contrast with reality still made him feel as if he were dreaming.
He had speculated about Aser's appearance beneath the mask, and even though he knew the age wouldn't be too great, the person before him could no longer simply be described as 'not too old.'
"I understand." Shaking his head to clear some distracting thoughts, Nobunaga Hideyoshi repositioned himself.
"Don't make your attitude so obvious. I have things I need to investigate that aren't convenient to disclose. Just consider me an outer member of Hive Security Company. Well, it's fine to tell you a bit now; that thing we just encountered is a product of that organization, and the virus is too. The attack our school suffered is also related," Yang Xiaoyou said, noticing Nobunaga Hideyoshi stepping back and standing beside her.
Having a look that could make even women jealous seemed a bit excessive for someone following her.
There was no issue with trusting Nobunaga Hideyoshi; however, his current demeanor needed correction.
Upon hearing Yang Xiaoyou mention the organization, Nobunaga Hideyoshi's expression shifted slightly. Although he had long known that Aser was investigating something, he hadn't expected the scale of it to be so vast.
"I see. No wonder Aser chose to hide so thoroughly. If such a colossal entity is targeting us, the consequences would be unimaginable." Nobunaga Hideyoshi nodded and helped Yang Xiaoyou find a suitable excuse.
Hearing this made Yang Xiaoyou feel somewhat embarrassed.
Meanwhile, in a dark room elsewhere.
Chen Kai groggily opened his eyes and found himself surrounded by darkness, with only a small amount of light filtering through a window above him.
"Where am I? I clearly just got released from the police station," he thought as he shook his head vigorously.
"Hehehehe, Brother Chen Kai, you're awake." At that moment, he suddenly heard a sinister laugh.
Turning his head toward the source of the voice in the shadows, he managed to identify who it was.
"Sun Jun? What are you doing here?" Chen Kai sighed in relief upon recognizing Sun Jun's voice.
However, he soon noticed that Sun Jun seemed to be missing something and exclaimed in surprise, "Sun Jun, your arm?"
"Broken, that Loser broke it."
"Him? He actually did something like this? How could it!" Upon hearing this, Chen Kai appeared quite surprised, and soon he seemed to realize that the atmosphere was somewhat off; the room was filled with a bloody and putrid smell.
"That's right, it's him, which is why I need your help." At this moment, Sun Jun made a sound that was somewhat nauseating, as if he were drooling.
"Help? No problem. You should consider our relationship. Although what happened with Uncle is indeed regrettable, I will still help you." Chen Kai felt something was amiss but still took the offer. In such an environment, the better their relationship, the safer it would be.
"Exactly! Our relationship is so good that I simply can't hold back anymore. From now on, let's become one. Use your body to fill the emptiness in my heart!" After speaking in a strange tone, most of Sun Jun's body hidden in the darkness emerged under the light from the window.
Seeing the terrifying Form before him, Chen Kai couldn't help but scream and retreated continuously until he reached the corner of the wall. "Sun Jun, what are you doing? We're friends, aren't we?"
"That's right!" After a roar, Sun Jun finally couldn't hold back any longer and lunged at him. The room was soon filled with Chen Kai's piercing screams and the crunching sounds of chewing, as he began to eat him alive without fully killing him first.
In another corner of the room, a figure cloaked in a Cloak, leaning against the wall, watched as this new member indulged in his meal to fill his inner void, shaking his head repeatedly.
This fellow who had survived purely through extreme emotions indeed had significant drawbacks; even Suppressant couldn't completely calm him down!
