Invade the World Chapter 86

  Chapter 86 Upheaval

  After bidding farewell to the boy, Meng Zheng briskly left the streets.

  When he left the block and was about to set foot on the noisy road with people coming and going, he seemed to have noticed something and turned his head quickly.

  Like Meng Zheng, a blonde woman in a large trench coat was standing there leaning against the wall, staring at him silently.

   "Oh, dear Mary, so you are here!"

  Meng Zheng showed an enthusiastic smile, put on an exaggerated tone, and opened his arms to the woman.

   "Don't be too conspicuous."

  The rough face is full of freckles, and the tall and thin woman who is about the same age as Meng Zheng, and who doesn't look very easy to get along with, frowned and blocked his hand.

In a coastal city like Jinjiang City, although foreigners like her are not yet to be seen as aliens, once they step into this kind of old town alleys, they will inevitably attract the locals. The curious eyes of the residents.

   "The place we arranged yesterday was the crossroad in front. Where did you go?"

   "I went to buy lunch."

  Mary shook the bag in her hand and pointed to KFC not far away.

"do you want to eat?"

  "You have a rare visit. Eat this at noon?" Meng Zheng was a little funny, and he spread his hands towards the other party, "This is a country of delicious food! Didn't you do your homework before you came?"

  "I'm waiting for my local colleagues to have a dinner at night, Mr. Meng."

  Mary shrugged, took out a hamburger from the bag, and made a vague evaluation while gnawing.

   "Well, the taste of sauce and lettuce is not right."

  "Now, you should be able to understand how I felt when I saw the "Zuo Zongtang Chicken" served by those so-called "Chinese restaurants"?"

   "That's not enough, just ordinary burgers, you can eat whatever you make."

  Mary licked the salad dressing on her hand and asked casually.

   "So, did you find it? The daughter of the researcher."

   "Nothing." Meng Zheng shook his head, "You came too fast. I only officially started working in the local department two days ago, so I didn't have time to find it."

   "Moreover, if she awakens, she should gradually notice the abnormality in her body and will not easily expose it to others."

   "Then what did you do just now? Take a walk after dinner?"

  "This is the work that was entrusted to me, of course, I have to finish it well."

  Meng Zheng replied with a smile.

   "And, I'm not really without any gains. If that little girl is still alive, she should be in high school or sophomore. I just happened to meet a high school student who is similar to her age."

"Yes?"

   "It's just a man."

"what do you mean-"

  Mary has a solemn expression.

   "Yes, that's right..."

   "—Her father asked her to undergo a **** reassignment operation in order to prevent others from discovering his daughter's secrets?"

   "..." Meng Zheng was a little speechless, "Miss Mary, I didn't see that you were quite a joke."

   "Since you didn't joking with me," Mary asked coldly, "What did you do with me about a boy?"

   "I think the little girl we are looking for is probably related to this boy."

   "Are you sure?"

   "I'm sure...no, you can even say that you will never leave ten."

  Meng Zheng answered with a smile.

"Oh?"

  This makes Mary curious.

  The reason why she was a little upset just now was because she felt that the other party was deliberately avoiding the topic, so she said that kind of avoiding the most important things. However, since Meng Zheng is so sure, there should be his reason.

"I went there and went around for a while, and there was a sign of a Grade A evil spirit having a riot, but only him and a possessed person who fell on the ground were present. Moreover, the evil spirit on the possessed person was present. They have all been dispersed."

  "Is this boy a psychic at the same level as you?"

   "No, that's the problem. I think he is an ordinary psychic, and he was not registered at all before. So..."

  Meng Zheng smiled and raised a finger.

   "There is no doubt that someone helped him."

   "Because of this? Couldn't it be the official investigation team who happened to pass by, or the civilians who saw uneven roads?"

"If this is the case, this child has no reason to hide it from me. Moreover, the city is not big. Even if you add those who have to hide their identities, they can single-handedly disperse a high-level evil spirit in a short period of time. How many? I can't even say that I'm absolutely sure. Apart from our goal with this potential, I can't think of anyone else. Besides..."

  Meng Zheng coughed and said solemnly.

"I promised to introduce him to a pretty little girl of the same age. A boy of this age didn't respond at all. It must be because there was someone close by him! I fell in love at a young age, it's really unreasonable. ."

  "...Don't put your experience on other people easily." Mary frowned, "Can't it be because that boy is a good student and is not interested in falling in love?"

"Yes Yes."

  Meng Zheng thought for a while and asked again.

"Speaking of it, how about you? You stayed here for a while, so you won't find anything? I know which people are suspected of possessing, so I rushed over. You should be better at this than me. This kind of thing, if you can perceive a strong enough power..."

   "After I received the message, I did try it."

  Mary answered calmly.

   "But just after I took the shot, I suddenly felt that someone was sensing a wide range of things, and even felt like being suppressed. In order to avoid attracting attention, I just gave up."

   "The other party's abilities seem to be very strong." Meng Zheng stroked his chin, showing a pensive expression, "Is it the same type of evil spirit as you?"

   "That's not clear." Mary shrugged. "Maybe it was the ordinary psychic boy in your mouth."

   "Don't laugh, there is no way for ordinary psychics to do this kind of thing."

  Meng Zheng sighed.

  "Forget it, whether that little girl is exactly the target we are looking for, or whether that girl is the target we are looking for, still needs to be confirmed by the curry guy Singh Kanna. He is the only person who can know whether the other party is really a 'magic match'."

   "Singh, it is very likely that she will come with Long Po, and she and you can't deal with it. And more importantly..." Mary stared at the man in front of her, and said in a deep voice.

   "—Long Po is far more powerful than you."

   "Strong is good, and weak has its advantages."

  Meng Zheng couldn't help laughing.

   "If Miss Mary's combat effectiveness is not weak enough, do you think you can be put into the country so easily?"

"you…!"

"Don't be angry, don't be angry," Meng Zheng hurriedly raised his hand and surrendered. "Although your ability is not suitable for frontal combat, we all know that intelligence is often the key to victory. I respect you very much, otherwise we The two wouldn't have been partners for so many years, would they?"

   "Huh, you should learn how to talk to a lady better than verbal respect."

  Mary glared at the man, and no one would care about being said "weak".

  However, she knew that what the other party said was actually correct.

  Mary Ossolet and Meng Zheng belong to a large academic organization called "Stargazers" and are well-known in the world of international psychics.

It was born out of an ad hoc conference-type organization cooperating with scientists from many countries. At that time, more than one ad hoc drafter of the organization's purpose had an official background, and China, the Soviet Union and the United States all played important roles in it; even the so-called so-called in the organization's name "Stargazing", the goal is actually [Ferocious Star Tai Sui] who appeared in the East for the first time, and it is conceivable to see the close connection.

  At the end of the 1980s, it gradually transformed into a non-governmental international organization and established good cooperative relations with major countries.

As a member of the Society of Stargazers, because the evil spirits manipulated by Mary Osolay are not the type that is good at sabotage, fighting and killing, they can enter the country as a foreigner after undergoing strict inspection procedures. He is a regular visiting scholar of Jinjiang University.

  But even with the above-mentioned reasons, he was specifically approved to act freely, but he still inevitably received strict surveillance in the process.

  This is even more true for Meng Zheng. He had been preparing to return to China five years ago, and he was allowed to return to work after several years of dealings with all parties and clearing up relations.

   On the other hand, if it is a top psychic who is famous in the world like Long Po, I am afraid it will not be so easy to enter the border... No, maybe there is no such opportunity.

   "Can they come, let's talk about it later."

   "No, you can't wait for this." Meng Zheng smiled, "According to the predicted time, if you can't catch up before the end of this year, all your arrangements will be useless."

   "Then... If you really don't find out, what are you going to do?"

   "Stupid question. Does this have anything to do with who I am now? I'm just looking to help you with my colleagues in the past."

  Meng Zheng stretched.

   "For me, I really feel comfortable when I come back here. Fallen leaves return to their roots, and wanderers return to their hometowns. Who can resist the temptation of my hometown?"

  Mary snorted softly, obviously not believing it.

   "Well, no matter what, we are going to separate temporarily."

  Meng Zheng glanced calmly at the crossroads with crowds in the distance.

   "If we talk for too long, some people will get anxious. Moreover, we will not be able to chat with opinions like we do now, you know?"

  Miss Mary nodded silently.

  Presumably even at this moment, both of them are being stared at by more than one pair of eyes.

  The two of them used to be colleagues of the Stargazer Society, and when they arrived in the same city, they would be suspicious if they didn't find an excuse to meet one another.

  But after that, it's not so easy to be a partner again.

  Fortunately, Meng Zheng said that Mary might not even be able to use the ability of a psychic easily.

   "...we will meet again soon, just this year."

  He reminded the woman that his voice was very soft, but his pupils were shining.

  Need a time?

  No, no, he doesn't like this statement at all, it's too simple and far from romantic.

  There is only one thing that Meng Zheng believes, and that is a prophecy about the end of mankind, a legend about the king of terror descending from the sky and destroying the world.

   sounds ridiculous, but he believes in it.

   Regardless of whether the end will come, there is no doubt that a new era is coming.

  —This world will be turned upside down sooner or later.

After that, Xu Xiangyang and Zhu Qingyue bid farewell to Lin Xingjie and returned to the make-up classroom.

  As a result, they found that the subsequent courses were unexpectedly cancelled, and the students had to go home early.

  So, Zhu Qingyue returned to her home.

  Unlike usual, when I returned home today, the sun in the sky was still very bright.

  She opened the door with the key, put down her schoolbag, and was stunned.

  It's not because the house is bright, but...

"mother?"

  Zhu Qingyue's voice trembled slightly, and she shouted towards the living room.

  No one responded.

  Zhu Qingyue put on slippers and walked in the corridor.

  Her heart was beating, as if there was some sudden omen.

  Zhu Qingyue has spent a long time in this home, and she and her mother have always lived.

  The girl knows the placement of every item here, so even if you don't turn on the lights at night, even if you move alone in the dark, there will be no accidents.

   And if someone has actually moved something here, even a very slight change, she can recognize it at a glance.

  Zhu Qingyue walked all the way to the door of the kitchen.

  When she stood outside the transparent glass door and looked inside, her beautiful pupils suddenly enlarged.

"mother…?"

  Zhu Qingyue covered her mouth and murmured in disbelief.

  —In the middle of the kitchen, which is shining brightly by the sunlight outside the window, a woman in a dressing gown is sitting quietly at the table.

  She was almost skinny, and her cheeks on both sides shrank and shrivelled. but…

  She is really sitting there! Instead of shutting himself up in the dark and cramped bedroom as usual.

   "Mom, you, your body is all right?!"

  Zhu Qingyue finally recovered from the shock, and hurried to her side, squatting down and looking at her mother's face.

  The middle-aged woman sits on the edge of the table, holding the cup with her skinny palms, her movements not hurriedly.

   "Are you able to get up? Really don't need to rest for a while?"

  The woman glanced at her and said hoarsely.

   "...Do you think I want to take care of you, wishing I couldn't get up?"

"Is not likely to."

A happy smile appeared on Zhu Qingyue's face.

   "I'm so happy. I didn't expect my mother's health to get better."

   She lowered her head and said softly as if she was talking to herself.

  "Today is a really happy day. There are so many things to celebrate... Not only did I meet a real friend for the first time, I saw my mother greet me in the kitchen after I came back..."

"-Snapped."

  The woman grabbed the girl's wrist abruptly, and turned her head around. On her thin, expressionless face, her eyes were deeply sunken, and the two eyeballs inlaid inside shone like ghost fire.

   "You said, who did you find?"

"Eh…?"

  Zhu Qingyue stayed for a while, then replied with a smile.

  "My friend? Didn't I tell my mother a long time ago, one is Lin Xingjie and the other is Xu Xiangyang. Starting today, the two of them are a formal friendship."

   "I have decided on this matter." At this point, the smile on the face of the girl with short hair narrowed slightly, and her tone became very serious, "Even if my mother objected, it's useless?"

  The mother and daughter at the table looked at each other in silence.

  At this moment, time seems to stand still.

  After a while, mother slowly released her hand and turned her face back.

   "...Qingyue, I'm hungry."

"OK!"

  Zhu Qingyue's smile became bright again. She stood up and walked to the sink, tied her apron, picked up the kitchen knife and the cutting board next to her, and took out the tomatoes in the bag and put them under the faucet for washing.

   "Let's make noodles today, how about tomato and egg noodles?"

   did not get a response from her mother, and Zhu Qingyue did not care.

  She was excited, and while humming a familiar tune, she began to cut up vegetables seriously.

Bright sunlight came in from outside the window, and everything in the clean and tidy kitchen seemed to be shining; the curtains were gently swaying in the warm wind, the sound of "da da da" cutting vegetables, and the mother and daughter with their backs facing each other The two of them constituted a peaceful and serene, even a bit drunken afternoon time in this family...
