Invade the World

  Chapter 54 The Girl Flying Over the City

   "You are..."

  Li Qinglian came out of the kitchen holding the bowls and chopsticks, and looked at the long-haired girl sitting up on the chair with surprise on her face.

   "Sorry! I have something to go out, come back soon!"

  While talking, Lin Xingjie already ran to the shoe cabinet, changed her slippers, stepped directly into the pair of sneakers with her slender feet in white cotton socks, and was about to push the door to leave.

"Wait, wait, where are you a minor going so late?" Li Qinglian hurriedly stopped her and covered her forehead with a headache, "I promised your mother to take good care of you." , How can I let you run around alone..."

  Of course she knows the rumors about the girl who was forcibly taken home by her brother. Lin Xingjie is a well-known bad girl in the fifteenth middle school-part of this matter was learned from her younger brother, and part of it was personally said by Lin Xingjie.

  The girl’s family background and the girl’s past, Li Qinglian actually asked casually. She is a policeman, but she has no habit of questioning minors. Besides, the target is her brother’s best friend...

  But Lin Xingjie said it all honestly.

Likes to fight, does not follow the rules, and fights for power like a boy. Li Qinglian knows that most of the above are nonsense. What kind of person is this girl? It's already very clear.

  In Li Qinglian's view, Lin Xingjie in life is actually a taciturn, even a girl who makes people feel indifferent. She doesn't like to communicate with others, and is more accustomed to being alone and keeping others away. She is very grateful for Li Qinglian's help, but she is still very cautious when facing herself as an adult.

  This girl seems to be more lively only in front of Xiao Yang.

  Because of this, Li Qinglian thought it was not difficult to take care of such a well-behaved girl...

  Now it seems that this is not the case.

  The other party usually behaves indifferently, but he hasn’t encountered anything that needs to be taken seriously.

  After Li Qinglian yelled out, Lin Xingjie really stood still and looked at herself.

  From those clear eyes, Li Qinglian saw the firmness that is hard to see in a child of this age.

  A lot of words that were about to be stopped swirled around the woman’s throat, but she still couldn’t say it.

  As someone who came by, Li Qinglian knew that in the face of such eyes, no preaching would work. Even if her next sentence was to disagree, she would still choose to turn around and leave.

"…must go?"

  Li Qinglian scratched her ponytail, a little helpless.

"Ok."

  The long-haired girl raised her stubborn face and nodded her head vigorously.

  The woman sighed and pointed at the shoes on her feet.

  The sneakers on Lin Xingjie’s feet look a bit old, with burrs rolled up in some places, but the color is still white as new. It can be seen that the girl loves them very often.

   "At least tie up the shoelaces and don't drop them."

  Lin Xingjie was taken aback for a moment, and quickly squatted down and started lacing shoelaces.

  ...

  Before the girl was about to leave, Li Qinglian couldn’t help saying:

  "Xingjie, if you really encounter something'must do', remember to seize the opportunity."

  The long-haired girl who was already standing at the door nodded vigorously, and then she asked with some hesitation:

   "Sister Lian, can you... lend me a watch?"

  Li Qinglian took off the watch without hesitation and threw it into her hand.

  *

  The night wind whizzed in the alleys, the street lights were dim and dim, and the brilliance of the moon overhead barely illuminated the wet bluestone pavement underneath.

"One minute…"

  She took out her watch and took a look.

  A dark turbid current emerged from around the girl, like an extension of that long black hair; the beast’s mouth protruded from the empty black hole.

  She opened her slender legs and started to run towards her destination.

  Lin Xingjie has always been very good at running. She has always said this, and this sentence is by no means a false statement. So far, she has only missed once, or because she was accidentally locked in a haunted house.

  But, every run in the past, without exception, was to escape from others;

  And only this time, it is for someone to take a step forward.

  Although she still doesn't know what happened, the line of sight did indeed come from Xu Xiangyang. Because she had felt it once in front of the hospital last time, Lin Xingjie remembered it very clearly.

  Xu Xiangyang will not spy on her just because she is bored, but call her for some reason...

  So, she must rush to him immediately anyway!

   "Two minutes."

   Lin Xingjie has left the alley.

  The home of the two siblings is not far from the school. I heard that Li Qinglian took this into consideration and decided to live here after moving to the city. They could have lived in a neighborhood with better environmental conditions.

   Normally, the two of them left the alley to go to school, usually within ten minutes.

   But now, this speed is obviously not enough—

  She wants to become faster and faster!

  The power from another world is responding to Lin Xingjie’s thoughts and wishes, and the growing turbid current is pushing her forward at high speed.

  As the speed increased, Lin Xingjie began to run without her feet on the ground, as if flying close to the ground, from time to time she jumped up to the root of the wall dexterously, through the barriers of dense branches and leaves, and walked forward among the eaves.

  She fell to the ground lightly.

The convex mirror in the corner of the alley glowed coldly under the illumination of the street lamp, and the strange scene of the chaotic tide flowing from the road flashed on the mirror surface... At this moment, the scene in the dark dream is now Gradually merge with the reality in front of the girl.

"three minutes."

  She has ran through the old streets with intricate cobwebs, and the buildings under her feet have changed from low-rise bungalows to middle- and high-rise residential buildings.

Lin Xingjie began to jump between water pipes, fire ladders and eaves, passing by the windowsills of households drying clothes; even stepping over a distance of more than ten meters from the top of this building, jumped onto the roof of the opposite building. .

Occasionally, passers-by passing by heard the sound and raised their heads questioningly, but could only see the empty night; occasionally someone living in the building opened the window, but only felt a light breeze blowing in front of them. Can't see anything outside.

  ...

  A full moon is quietly covering the city.

  Lin Xingjie ran faster and faster, jumping higher and higher, gravity seemed to have no effect on her, and the world under her feet became flat from three-dimensional, extending towards the horizon.

Under the silent and deep sky, the human city never sleeps, feasting, busy, and neon lights are intertwined with the headlights of the cars driving across the road. Everything is like flowing water, like passing clouds, like The soothing light flows under the eyes of the long-haired girl.

  Unconsciously, she turned into a wind blowing over the city—

"…arrive."

With a "pop", the white sneakers on the girl's feet stepped heavily on the iron railing until the latter was stepped out of a bend under the action of inertia, and the momentum was slowly eliminated.

  Lin Xingjie saw the school, just across the street from the building under her feet.

  She put her hand on her eyebrows, made a look into the distance, and squinted her eyes to estimate the distance between the two sides.

  Lin Xingjie took two steps backwards, took a deep breath, her clothes and black long straight hair fluttered in the biting wind.

  From the starting point of a ten-storey rooftop, she jumped high again, as if jumping towards the moon in the sky—

  *

"what should we do?"

  Wang Yue sat down on the ground, muttering to himself.

   "...You have repeated this sentence more than a dozen times."

  Sun Xiaofang said.

   "No, no way, I really can't think of a way..."

   "I didn't blame you either." The braided girl shook her head, "After all, everyone is the same as you. It seems that there is no other way but to wait."

  The atmosphere in front of the school is quite dull. The members of the study group were all down. Some leaned against the wall and some sat on the ground. Everyone was in a daze, and someone sighed from time to time.

  No one wants to speak.

  The campus was pitch black, and it was terribly quiet. Whether it was the murderer, or their monitor and classmate Xu, there was no movement at the moment, and no one could know what was going on inside.

  Suddenly, the street lights not far away flickered twice as if the current was unstable.

   Then there was a soft "bang", as if something had fallen on the ground.

  "What happened to this, this time?"

  Wang Yue raised his head in a panic.

   "Someone is here..."

  They only discovered at this time that, at some point in time, a figure suddenly appeared under the street light.

  Perhaps because the experience of being chased by the murderer just now left them with lingering fears, everyone always felt that there was a terrible atmosphere around this figure, and they could only stare suspiciously at the other side and quickly approach the school gate, wondering if it was time to escape.

   "Yes... It's Lin Xingjie from Class One!"

  Until Wang Yue saw the iconic long black hair swaying behind the girl, he hurriedly reminded him.

  Lin Xingjie stopped and scanned the faces of the group of people.

   "What happened inside?"

  Her voice is slightly hoarse.

   "Uh, a strange lunatic broke in suddenly and we had to run away..."

   Facing the expressionless and full-fledged long-haired girl, someone answered carefully.

  Lin Xingjie passed by them, frowned at the closed school gate, turned around and asked:

   "Who is still inside?"

   "Yes, it is our class monitor Zhu Qingyue and Xu Xiangyang..."

  She did not finish listening to this sentence, and went straight to the iron gate.

  "Wait, classmate Lin, that, that door is closed..."

  Wang Yue wanted to stop, but only heard classmate Lin muttering "Four minutes...", and then he watched the long-haired girl step on the side wall, and the whole person leaped lightly;

  At the same time, her other foot stomped heavily on the granite wall, another kick, and once again she used her strength to rush upwards, and she grabbed the top spire of the iron gate quite easily.

  This series of actions is like water, and it can be seen that the actors are at ease. And because of this, this group of high school students can better appreciate the gap.

  They all looked stupid, their jaws dropped to the ground, and they could only stare at Classmate Lin as they stepped over the iron gate, unable to speak a word.

   "Lin and Lin are really martial arts masters," Wang Yue scratched his head, his tone was full of awe, "I thought it was someone from another class who was talking about it..."

   "You stupid," someone said with a hatred of iron and steel, "hasn't everyone seen the scene where Shi Hui was beaten by Classmate Lin? You still say that?"

   "But I was in the classroom..."

  The school gate suddenly became lively, and everyone seemed to be full of hope again. Even Guo Zixuan, who had been silent for a long time, raised his head, and his expression was lighted up under his glasses again.

  The murderer who broke in suddenly, will never be the opponent of a hidden martial arts master, right?
