Among the ruins swaying in the snow, Lin Cheng's slender figure flickered. As time went by, the aura of Jiu Gu and the person who rescued him had become weaker and weaker. If he didn't seize the time to catch up, he would soon catch up. You will completely lose the opportunity to catch the opponent.
Obviously Jiu Valley also understood this truth, so even if Lin Cheng increased his power to pursue, more than ten minutes later, there was still no harvest. Because the wind and snow were too heavy, there were no traces left on the ground at all. This also made Lin Cheng's pursuit more difficult.
After expanding the scope of the pursuit beyond the area of the previous battle, Lin Cheng, who still found nothing, suddenly stopped in the wind and snow. He knew that if he continued like this, he would not gain anything. If he wanted to catch Jiu Gu, he would have to find another way. Think of it.
"Woof woof!"
Just when he was thinking about how to catch Jiu Gu, Cola's cry suddenly came from behind. When he turned around, he saw Cola transforming into a fighting form and driving the girl away with a tail like a fire whip. He staggered over.
"What are you doing here?"
When they approached, Lin Cheng paid no attention to the girl, but frowned slightly and asked Coke.
When Coke heard this, he quickly arched his head towards him. Lin Cheng looked at its actions and squinted his eyes and thought for a few seconds before he understood what it meant. It turned out that this guy felt that he was in trouble and wanted to come over and help.
Coca-Cola's sense of smell can be said to be a unique skill at this stage after being strengthened by the potion. It is indeed much better to let it find people than to go alone like a headless fly. So Lin Cheng did not hesitate and headed towards It nodded, signaling it to act immediately.
After receiving the instruction, Coke squealed excitedly, and then saw that it didn't care about the girl beside it. Its flame-streaked body drew a red light in the snow, and disappeared in the snow in the blink of an eye. .
As Coke disappeared, the girl squatting on the ground like an ostrich and not daring to raise her head was obviously relieved. Coke in fighting form put too much pressure on her, even though she knew that Lin Cheng might be the more terrifying existence. , but at least Lin Cheng is a human being, and he didn't really do anything to her just now. It seems more reliable no matter how you look at it.
"May I have your name?"
After handing over the task of searching for Jiugu to Coke, Lin Cheng was no longer so anxious. When he saw the girl squatting on the ground, wanting to disappear into the snowdrift, he couldn't help but smile in his heart and asked her.
"ah?"
Perhaps she didn't expect Lin Cheng to suddenly chat with her. The girl was obviously startled, and then she hurriedly got up and replied: "My name is Jiugu Kui, you can just call me Kui..."
"Jiu Gu Kui."
Hearing the other party's name, Lin Cheng thought so. At the same time, he was also a little curious about this girl's character, because it was obvious that they were enemies now, and Lin Cheng's biggest opponent now was Jiu Gu. In this case It is a very stupid thing to rashly tell the enemy your true identity, but this girl did it anyway, and it seemed that she did not expect the consequences of doing so.
Judging from the current situation, this Jiu Gukui and her brother are completely different types of people. The brother is sinister, cunning and willful, while the sister is stupid and naive. Except for the similarity in appearance, ordinary people cannot connect the two at all. together.
However, it can also be seen from the clothes on Jiu Gu Kui that the huge difference in personality between her and her brother makes her not happy in this apocalyptic world. Perhaps in Jiu Gu's view, as her biological sister, she must be at least ruthless and merciless. There is a bit of momentum, but this Hatotani Aoi looks like a soft and weak girl. It is only because Hatotani likes her that she becomes a ghost.
As an 'abandoned child', it can be seen from the fact that Jiu Gu asked her to be a bait to divert Lin Cheng's attention. The life or death of this girl was of no importance to Jiu Gu, so he used her as a hostage to force Jiu Gu to come back. The road was obviously impassable, so Lin Cheng didn't pay much attention to Jiu Gukui and kept silent after asking her name.
Lin Cheng's silence made Jiu Gukui feel anxious. She didn't know what fate was waiting for her, but her instinctive desire to survive forced her to look at Lin Cheng and trembled in an inaudible voice. Asked: "You...you...I..."
Jiu Gukui was so angry that he wanted to slap himself twice, but Lin Cheng waved his hands indifferently and said, "Don't worry, I have nothing to do with your life." If you are interested, if you can answer a few questions for me, I can let you go immediately."
"Wha, what's the problem?"
Lin Cheng's words shocked Jiu Gukui, but she soon came to her senses and said feebly like a deflated balloon: "If you want to ask me about my brother, I can only say sorry. Because I have been ineligible to participate in any of my brother's plans since a long time ago, and my understanding of him is almost blank..."
Hearing this, Lin Cheng couldn't help but sneered: "If you are really not qualified to participate in any action in Jiugu, how can you explain the scene that just happened?"
Hearing his words, Hatotani Aoi couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said in a helpless tone: "That's just because I happened to be lurking nearby, and after my brother was defeated by you, I was found by Hiranuma-san and made a temporary rescue plan. The whole process was improvised and was not part of my brother's plan..."
"Temporary plan?"
The other party's answer somewhat surprised Lin Cheng. He thought that the whole thing, including the defeat and evacuation, was arranged by Jiu Gu. At that time, he thought that Jiu Gu's work was impeccable, but now it seems that is not the case. Something happened.
"That's right."
As if he knew that his only chance to survive was to tell Lin Cheng the truth, Jiu Gukui had no intention of hiding it, and said clearly: "My actions before were indeed directed by my brother, but after the situation changed, those who were originally The plan was no longer feasible, and my brother obviously had no chance to make a new plan, so from the moment you discovered me, everything that happened after that was actually a temporary change made by Hiranuma-san and me..."
The previous speculation was overturned, Lin Cheng was not in a hurry and continued to ask: "The Hiranuma you are talking about is probably the guy who just took away Jiutani while I was away, right?"
"Yes."
Nodding slightly, Hatogaya Aoi said: "Hiranuma-san can be said to be one of my brother's most trusted subordinates. I have heard others say before that Hiranuma-san is like my brother's shadow. He is everywhere, but at the same time he is like Never existed."
