Chapter 386: Negotiations

   Damn, damn, damn, damn.

Rushing into the corridor, Mandy, whose mind was full of noise and chaos, turned over and jumped over the guardrail of the corridor. She put her hands on the guardrail and kicked off her feet to jump to the stairs of the second floor. Her jeans were sitting on the slide and tilted towards them.

It slid down.

At this time, the chasing duo above them rushed into the corridor entrance, leaned on the guardrail and looked down. As soon as they lowered their heads, they saw Mandy sitting on the guardrail and sliding halfway down, jumping straight down. She grabbed the guardrail with both hands and slowed down.

With one more kick of his legs, he jumped onto the guardrail of the next floor and successfully landed on the first floor.

When Caesar saw this, he was about to climb over the guardrail and jump down. But as soon as he got one leg out, he suddenly remembered that he had no blood advantage here at all. He would probably fall badly if he jumped from this height. Only then did he think of the figure next to him.

He had already flown out before he even had time to stop him!

Chu Zihang jumped out of the guardrail and jumped down. When he reached the second floor, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the guardrail to slow down. He kicked the wall with his right foot and fell down. It felt like a ball had been thrown in.

There were various bounces and bumps in the narrow passage. When he finally landed, he did not forget to protect his head with his hands and curled up into a ball to protect his weak points. But despite this, Caesar upstairs still clearly heard Chu Zihang's cry when he fell to the ground on the first floor.

There was a dull sound like the bag falling to the ground.

  …Why are you so hard-working? Is this golden retriever an ‘S’-level wife? Oh no, senior sister, or is she your senior sister?

Mandy, who had just rushed into the corridor on the first floor, thought she had escaped the pursuers behind her. She heard a muffled sound from behind before running two steps. She turned around and saw the black-haired boy rolling twice on the ground, and then regained his strength.

He kept getting up and rushed towards him like crazy.

This scene scared her to death... These people are really crazy. After all, she has practiced parkour for a while, but is it a bit dangerous for you to jump directly from the height of the third floor?

Following Chu Zihang, another golden ball landed on the ground. Caesar also jumped, but compared to Chu Zihang's brute force, he imitated Mandy's movement of going downstairs and bounced on the guardrail.

Going downstairs, it was a bit slow, but it didn't matter in this situation. Chu Zihang had already bit Mandy in front of him, and he had now retreated from the first batch of pursuit to the backup position.

Mandy gritted her teeth and turned her head to run away, but in the short-distance burst speed competition, girls were indeed weaker than boys. The gap between hormones and metabolic systems put Mandy at an instant disadvantage in this sprint of less than 100 meters, and she jumped in the dark corridor.

The black-haired boy who came over was as frighteningly athletic as a nocturnal panther, and he didn't look like he had just fallen from the third floor.

When Mandy turned her head again, she was horrified to find that the boy behind her had disappeared... not that he had disappeared, but that the other person had already dived behind her. A jump-assisted grapple locked her waist and legs, and the two of them were running at full speed.

In this state, he lost his balance and fell to the ground, rolling into a gourd.

Mandy's reaction was beyond Chu Zihang's imagination. Before he could further perform the ground foot lock, the opponent suddenly pulled out his right foot and kicked him in the face, sending him rolling and knocking him out.

At the wall!

Mandy herself also slid several meters on the smooth floor before she stopped. This delay completely ruined her escape plan. At the exit of the safe passage at the end of the corridor, a boy suddenly opened the door.

After rushing in, he looked up and saw Chu Zihang and Mandy on the ground, their faces becoming terrifyingly gloomy.

 Ambush?

Mandy got up hastily from the ground and was in pain all over. She felt her brain nerves were burning. Why didn't she notice the ambush before she came? Or maybe the ambush had been patrolling near the teaching building and accidentally missed him when she sneaked in.

?No wonder the other party's face is so bad. After catching him, he must vent his anger on himself, right?

 The situation could not get any worse now. There were hungry wolves in front of them, tigers and leopards behind them, and Caesar behind Chu Zihang also rushed over. His speed was not much slower than the former. It had almost become a two-sided attack.

The ambush blocking the safe passage rushed toward her for more than ten meters and then stopped. They happened to be guarding the only window in this section of the corridor... They were so experienced that they completely prevented their prey from escaping.

All possibilities of the day.

Behind Mandy, Chu Zihang also stood up against the wall, stopping not far away from her and not getting closer. Caesar also came to him after a few breaths. Mandy was completely surrounded in the corridor.

The sound of footsteps from upstairs followed closely behind her, and now she couldn't escape.

“Are you not hurt?” Caesar asked in a low voice as he stood up against the wall next to Chu Zihang.

Chu Zihang gently touched his bleeding nose and moved his arms, legs and feet. When he landed, he repeatedly hit the guardrail and wall, which had a certain deceleration effect. After confirming that his violent landing only caused a few large bruises

He shook his head and said, "I was kicked...except for the bridge of my nose, there are no fractures in other key parts, which does not affect my activities."

“That’s good, but the next situation is the most troublesome.” Caesar looked at Mandy who was standing against the wall in the distance and whispered.

Mandy, who was forced into a desperate situation, felt that her heartbeat was about to explode. The temperature of her whole body was rising with the increase of her heart rate. She had no way to escape now. The enemy was dozens of unknown adults. In this narrow

What should she do in a small environment? Should she surrender or fight to the death?

The more she thought about it, the more chaotic her brain became. This sense of crisis was like a platinum star holding her heart, making it impossible to breathe. The more nervous she became, the faster her breathing became. She leaned against the wall like a cornered cub.

Still keeping an eye on the crowd chasing after them.

...Perhaps in Mandy's own imagination, she was a deer chased into a corner by a pack of wolves, but in the eyes of the students who came from behind, the girl with golden eyes not far away from the corridor had completely lit up.

They are truly ferocious beasts that are ready to devour anyone at any time!

“Ah oh.” Chen Motong stood at the front of the crowd coming from behind. Seeing Mandy’s golden eyes, she couldn’t help but muttered in a low voice, “Now we’re in trouble.”

Caesar was the first to react, raising his right hand to the support coming from behind, signaling everyone not to act rashly. The entire corridor immediately became quiet after the footsteps disappeared, and the only thing that could be heard was the girl's violent breathing not far away.

The sound, and the chirping of crickets on the lawn outside the corridor window.

After the silence lasted for a full minute, Caesar looked at Chu Zihang beside him and took half a step back to let him negotiate. Everyone was unfamiliar with Mandy Gonzalez, except for

Chu Zihang was familiar with the other party in Kassel College, and may have spoken to him many times and had dinner together. In this case, he could only give priority to familiar friends to negotiate.

Chu Zihang took half a step forward, and it was only this half step that aroused Mandy's great vigilance. She subconsciously dug the fingers of her right hand that were lightly pressing on the wall... Everyone could clearly see the traces left on the concrete wall.

Five slightly deep fingerprints were left.

"We don't mean any harm." Chu Zihang stopped, looked at Mandy and said calmly, "We just want to chat."

"Tackle me (a rugby term meaning sack) and then tell me you just want to talk to me?" Mandy leaned against the wall and stared at Chu Zihang with a wry smile, her eyes filled with energy.

Helplessness and panic on the verge of the limit, "I heard your conversation in the classroom, and I also know what you are planning to do to me... You did what happened to Teacher James, right?"

“It was an accident that time.” Chu Zihang was silent for a moment, and actually admitted that they were the initiators of that incident. He looked at Mandy and said, “So I don’t want an accident to happen this time.”

“You are also looking for the murderer? The monster who took Amara away? But why do you want to attack people like us...I don’t understand.”

“This matter is very complicated, and I can’t explain it.” Chu Zihang said, “But you have to trust us, we won’t hurt you, we just want to talk to you.”

According to the standards of negotiation, Chu Zihang's speeches in these rounds were extremely poor, but no one could stand up and criticize him, because judging from the current situation, they were affected by environmental factors and really couldn't explain it.

Under such circumstances, you can only make such a poor statement and constantly emphasize that we will not kill you to stabilize the other party's mentality.

 “Then can you tell me what your purpose is?” Mandy asked.

 “Find the real murderer...get everyone out of here safely.”

 “Get out of here? Carmel University?”

Mandy glanced at the corridors around her. It was quiet on campus. It was about four or five hundred meters away from the dormitories of the on-campus students. Even if she screamed, no one would hear her. "Are you transfer students there?"

Sick? No one asked you to come to our school to cause trouble."

“It’s not just the university, it’s... we just want to help.”

“Help? Just stick a branch into our history teacher’s stomach and call it help? You crazy people.”

“I told you, it was just an accident.” Chu Zihang said in a deep voice.

“Accident? Can you please explain what accident it is?” Mandy said, “You keep saying it’s unexplainable and unexpected. Why should I believe you?”

Chu Zihang stared at Mandy, and after dozens of seconds of silence, he raised his hand and pressed his temples, then slowly said, "First of all, the first person we targeted when we arrived in the town was the person for this mission.

The original person in charge was James Frank, so we chose to send a letter to Frank, the former field intern instructor who was a senior at Cassel College...that is, Mr. James as you call him."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the group of students waiting behind Chu Zihang changed. Susie and Lancelot stepped out and wanted to stop Chu Zihang, but Caesar suddenly reached out to stop them and signaled them to shut up.

Open your mouth and let Chu Zihang continue talking.

"The content of the letter is the real resume of James Frank in the first half of his life. He was a 1986 graduate of the Mechanics Department of Cassel College, an 'A'-level mixed breed. He graduated in 1990 and entered the executive department. Within 3 years, he completed the 'A'-level and

There are 13 tasks in total. In the fourth year, he was promoted to the special commissioner of the execution department. When he was conducting the instructor guidance task in 2008, he was caught in the original town of Carmel..."

Chu Zihang's voice suddenly stopped. Just when Mandy was listening so absorbedly that something seemed to pop out of her mind, she looked up and was surprised to find that the boy had covered his mouth and nose with his hands.

This small town seemed to have a huge force suddenly coming, penetrating into this corridor from every corner, surging like a tide against illegal mistakes. Although it was invisible, everyone could clearly feel this force.

The existence of power.

On weekdays, they were squeezed out by this force almost all the time, and it became more and more serious as time went by. Now that Chu Zihang took the initiative to violate the taboo, this force also bombarded him mercilessly.

A large amount of blood flowed from his broken nose, his eyes were bloodshot at some point, the veins on his forehead stretched out, and his whole body swelled unnaturally... as if it was about to explode from the inside out.

"The way we entered this town was irregular, and we used some special means to force our way in. When writing a letter, every time a keyword is written, the writer will be ostracized by this town.

'."

But even so, Chu Zihang still stood upright, endured the discomfort, wiped the blood from his face and looked at Mandy with a look of horror on his face, "So after writing that letter, we

I lost a person and had to forcibly cut off his connection with this town..."

"After receiving the letter, Instructor Frank did rush to the fir forest where we met as promised, and met the commissioner we agreed to meet... Well, the commissioner is also a sensitive word and can't be mentioned? Damn it... I said it again."

At this time, Caesar also took a few steps forward and rubbed his temples to continue the narration on behalf of Chu Zihang.

"During the contact, we lost another person. Teacher James, as you know, lost control after receiving the information we revealed. His fighting skills are very strong, but the student he was contacting was not bad either.

The president of the Lion Heart Judo Club. During the armed conflict, our man was seriously injured and on the verge of death and forcibly cut off, and instructor Frank also paid the price with abdominal trauma."

“So you want to say that you sent Teacher James to the hospital in self-defense?” Mandy asked with an ugly face.

"This is a fact." Caesar gave Chu Zihang a hand and together with him endured the rejection of the huge force, he looked at Mandy and said lightly, "None of us knows what real death means in this small town.

He was looking for something, so our commissioner just defended blindly at first, until he couldn't hold on any longer, he counterattacked in self-defense and stabbed Instructor Frank... We didn't even think about hurting him!"

"You guys are really a bunch of lunatics in my opinion... You came to this school for no reason and said that you know me and I should know you too. If I don't believe you, you will try to kidnap me." Mandy said with a wry smile, "

You have been clamoring to find the murderer, so why don't you go find it? What's wrong with the students in this college?"

"You have really forgotten a lot of things. You are not students of Carmel University, including everyone in this town. Even this town is not real...well." Caesar stopped immediately,

Because he realized that if he continued to talk about this topic, he might really be thrown out of this town in the next second.

 “Are you angry? Your nose bleeds all the time...”

“I was quite angry when I heard what you said...” Caesar wiped the blood from under his nose and said expressionlessly.

If he continues to tempt death like this, he and Chu Zihang will be kicked out of this town sooner or later. Now that they have said so many things that should not be said, they are still standing here purely because their bloodline is the best among all people.

First-class, if it were anyone else, he would have left the show long ago after saying these things.

Perhaps as Mandy said, Caesar and Chu Zihang really shouldn't try to attack these original companions... But they really can't get more information, so they can only try to get more information from Mandy and the others.

Looking for hope, find the murderer as soon as possible before he is expelled from the town.

I really can’t talk anymore today... If you tell the truth, you will be rejected by the town, and if you tell others, you can’t gain trust. If you want to rely on violent means to get a better negotiation platform, the other party is now beginning to show the power of blood.

If they take action, although they may not lose because they have more people, they will definitely suffer a lot of casualties.

 Fighting against an angry hybrid... In that case, without the blood advantage, it would be difficult for them to ensure casualties on both sides... No one wants to die like that in this small town!

“You should know that we didn’t lie. If you don’t remember us, you should always remember Lin Nian, right?” Chu Zihang said in a low voice.

"Lin Nian...?" Mandy's expression became even more strange. She had heard this name more than once, and it was extremely familiar... so familiar that it made people panic.

"We actually discovered another interesting thing after we came to this town." Chu Zihang said, "Everyone here has lost their previous memories, just like they have been freed from 'shackles'. They are in this small town."

The characters and habits shown in the small town are exactly like their most natural, unrepressed self."

"After James Frank entered the Executive Department for four years, he could have been promoted to a higher level of specialist and performed more important confidential tasks. This is every specialist's dream, but he ended up becoming an instructor because he said

He likes the feeling of teaching and educating people, and likes to train students one after another to become excellent people... So even if he is not a mixed race in this small town, he is still a history teacher, a teacher who is dignified and extremely kind to his students.

..." Chu Zihang said as blood oozed from his body and his eyes were almost bloodshot and turned red.

"When he was in the fir forest, he saw that the person who found him was one of his students. He had already held back when the conflict occurred, otherwise the student would not have had the chance to stick a branch into an 'A' grade hybrid.

In the body." Chu Zihang whispered.

Now everyone around him could feel the changes happening. The scenery around him actually began to have a faint light distortion... It was like the disc in the VCD player was jammed, with cracks constantly appearing.

His surroundings flickered, making people feel absurd and frightening.

This town seems to be trying to correct its mistakes and erase something, and Chu Zihang is the target of erasure. Even so, he is still watching Mandy and continues, "People who are stuck here will always

What is important to remember, and what cannot be forgotten for you? Excellent grades? The charm that attracts everyone's attention? Even the snack senbei that you like to eat no matter outside or here? These are all in your impression

The thing you care about most... What about Lin Nian? Does he deserve to be remembered by you? "

"I..."

 “We know where Amara is.”

At this time, while Mandy was still hesitating, Chen Motong, who had been silent in the crowd, suddenly spoke.

She raised her head and looked directly at Mandy, "If you don't remember the 'S' class, then you have to remember your best friend, right? If I say we can help you find her, are you willing to believe us for the time being?"

 Hearing the name Amala, Mandy suddenly raised her head and looked at Chen Motong, "Are you sure...?"

"I can understand why you are so obsessed with Amara. She is your best friend at the same level in Kassel Academy. She can be regarded as a best friend. She has known her since before the 'S' level, so in this small town

Your relationship is still close..." Chen Motong pressed her temples and endured the headache. Her bloodline was not as good as that of Caesar and Chu Zihang, so she could only quickly conclude, "I know where she is now, as long as you

Come with us and we can take you to see her."

“…You can find Amara, but you can’t find the murderer?”

"I have given our utmost sincerity." Chen Motong said, "If you don't believe it anymore, what happened tonight will really be irreversible. If we really wanted to harm you, we would still talk to you so much nonsense.

?"

Mandy glanced at the dozen or so figures in the corridor, hesitated for a moment, and after thinking silently for a few minutes, she glanced at Chu Zihang, and their eyes met.

 She seemed to have really remembered something, and she finally nodded.

"You take me to find Amala and I will believe you...and tell me about that boy named Lin Nian...is it a boy?"

Everyone took a long breath almost at the same time, including the brother guarding the door and window... He was under the greatest pressure in this negotiation. If the negotiation broke down and Mandy wanted to escape, the only way out was for him to hold on.

With safe passages and windows, he would be the first to be attacked frontally by a hybrid, and his survival rate was impressive.

Now that we have finally reached an agreement, there is no need for conflict to occur. This is a situation that everyone is happy to see.

Mandy relaxed her body and sighed while rubbing her forehead, while walking towards Caesar and Chu Zihang, whose faces were covered in blood. Both of them stared at her, their faces still stained with blood.

When everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Chu Zihang suddenly became tense and wanted to shout something, but because of his injury, he vomited blood and forced the words back.

At this moment, the golden touch in the fingers of the girl rubbing her forehead reflected in his eyes in the dim corridor was simply dazzling...

Mandy, who had taken a few steps forward, suddenly stopped and turned around. She rushed towards the gatekeeper student who was walking behind her like a falcon. She dragged him to the ground with a chokehold. She grabbed his throat with both hands and pulled him back.

He dragged the distance with force.

No one expected that Mandy, who had already begun to trust each other, would suddenly change her mind... No, this kind of smooth action could only be completed so smoothly after rehearsing it in the head dozens of times in advance.

  ——This guy didn’t believe a word they said from the beginning.

"'Remember to stabilize her mental state when you do it. It's best to do it when she's defenseless.'" Mandy tightly held the boy in her arms who was blushing and unable to breathe, and looked at Chen Motong in the crowd.

explain

Everyone saw that the original relaxed and relaxed expression on her face disappeared, replaced by a chilling expressionless face, and the golden pupils in her eyes were extremely bright.

“…I remember you said that before, right?” she asked.

"you..."

Before Chen Motong said anything, Mandy had already interrupted her and said expressionlessly, "You said that a small town can best reflect a person's true appearance? If you really know me in reality, you should know

What kind of character am I...I'm sorry, I can't trust you, I can't trust any of you...I will find the murderer who took my friend away...it's just a matter of time."

Everyone saw the fierceness flashing in the eyes of this blond girl at this moment.

Caesar and Chu Zihang were ready to rush to the rescue almost at the same time, but they were still a step too late. No one thought that this girl would actually kill her. They could only watch helplessly as Mandy locked the student's throat and suddenly

With a twist, it was completely broken, and with a chilling sound of bone cracking, the body was thrown straight over and hit both Caesar and Chu Zihang.

 “Mandy Gonzalez!” Caesar almost shouted from behind.

Mandy did not look back, but she could probably imagine the icy coldness and anger in the blond boy's sea-blue eyes. She rushed to the safe passage, kicked open the door and fled into the night academy.
