The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 23
Michelle smiled and comforted Yang Yang: "Don't worry, Brother Yang, I believe Sister Chacha will not be a bad person."

Yang Yang nodded, and did not intend to continue this topic.

After the two of them ate something, they packed up.

"Xue'er, I'm going out in a while, and I may not be back until midnight. You lock the door by yourself, and I'll bring the key."

After tidying up, Yang Yang said to Michelle.

"Are you going to investigate tonight?"

Earlier, Yang Yang told Michelle that he was going to stay overnight, so Michelle was not too surprised.

"Well, since it's been decided, let's go tonight."

Yang Yang nodded. In fact, he had thought about many problems over and over again.

For this matter, it was natural for him to be involved.But in the morning at Fengqiuhuang Bar, Yuan Mu talked about some things about the monster gang, which changed his thinking about this mission.

This gang of monsters caused troubles and killed innocent people indiscriminately, and it is still expanding its influence and creating panic.

This made him feel that since he was involved and knew the inside story, he had to do something.

Probably, this is his character that cannot be changed.

After saying goodbye to Michelle, he went to Lu Fu's house by car.

Although Lu Ax's home is in the north of the city, it's actually not too far from the direction of the Magic Snack Shop.

It took Yang Yang a dozen minutes to take a taxi there.

While paying the taxi fare, he suddenly remembered that he had to reimburse Yuan Mu or Hu Weixian next time.

These guys don't take money seriously, but every time they ask him to help with something, they don't have much money.

Lu Ax's home is considered a very common residential area in the north of the city.

This area belongs to the new city, and it is all modern buildings with serious homogeneity.

On weekdays, he is like an ordinary office worker, working from nine to five.

But in fact, he doesn't pretend to be serious about work, he can only go out for a walk every day, find a place to sleep, and pretend to be a serious person.

And when he returns home at night, he will work on his "big project" all night long.

Lu Fu's house is on the first floor, and everything in front of his house can be seen at a glance from the street.

Yang Yang chose a Kendaji fast food restaurant, ordered a drink casually, and began to follow.

But he wasn't too nervous, because even if he was distracted and didn't see it, if something really happened, Lu Ax would quietly notify them.

The reason why Yuan Mu wanted to arrange another person was also to take care of each other with Lu Fu.

Yang Yang checked the time on his phone, it was only [-]:[-], still early.

On the square of the opposite building, a group of old men and women are dancing square dance.

"The boundless sky is my love..."

The sound was loud, and Yang Yang watched from the window of the fast food restaurant, the bustling crowd seemed extremely lively.

While paying attention to the situation around Lu Ax's house, he was thinking about what happened in the past few days.

Some abnormal behavior about afternoon tea still lingered in his mind.

How much does Hu Weixian know?

He suddenly thought of this question. According to his current understanding of Hu Weixian, this guy should have a lot of supernatural powers, and it should be a piece of cake to deal with a monster gang.

Could it be that, as Yuan Mu said, this matter cannot be resolved with violence?
But if Hu Weixian really knows the detailed information, he should tell them.It's not like this guy is deliberately hiding it to make it more difficult for them, right?
When Yang Yang thought about it, it was really possible.He immediately called Hu Weixian with his mobile phone, but he couldn't get through.

After several tries, he finally gave up.While looking out the window boredly, he checked the time with his mobile phone from time to time.

Before I knew it, more than three hours had passed, and the aunts dancing in the square outside had all dispersed.On the previously lively street, only a few small vendors in twos and threes remained.

Yang Yang sent a message to Lu Ax and Yuan Mu, ready to call it a day.

Lu Ax replied "OK".

It took Yuan Mu a long time to reply: "Ah? It started today, oh oh, then go back, I'm not in the city."

Yang Yang was speechless for a while, wishing he could run to the other end of the phone and kill Yuan Mu.

This guy is so unreliable. If there is a real situation today and he can't be found at a critical moment, I will probably be killed by him.

He was angry for a long time and had nowhere to vent, so he left the fast food restaurant in resentment.

I didn't get a taxi along the way, so I could only look for a car while walking.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he managed to stop a car.

Sit in the passenger seat, fasten your seat belt, and report your address to the driver.

Then, the moment the car started, he accidentally glanced at the rearview mirror, and suddenly found a strange person following behind.

Because the direction of the car changed slightly, he couldn't see clearly, so he quickly rolled down the window and stuck his head out to look back.

"What are you doing? Don't die?"

The driver master noticed his movement and immediately slammed on the brakes.

Yang Yang looked at it for a while, but he didn't see that figure again, so he stuck his head back.

"Hey, I'm sorry, I seemed to see an acquaintance just now, so I was anxious to see clearly."

He smiled and apologized to the driver, but there was a big question mark in his head.

The figure in the rearview mirror just now looked very abrupt, because there was no one on the entire street, but that person stood still at the corner.

And Yang Yang recalled a little bit, he seemed to have seen this figure before when he walked out of the fast food restaurant.

It's just that he didn't pay attention at the time, so he didn't see very clearly, and he didn't even know whether the other party was a man or a woman.

Yang Yang's first thought was to get out of the car immediately to check what happened.But thinking about that guy Yuan Mu seemed unreliable, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​getting out of the car.

Finally, after thinking about it, he still called Yuan Mu and told him about the situation just now.

On the phone, Yuan Mu's tone also became serious, and after thinking for a while, he said that if there is any situation, call him directly, and he will come over right away.

Yang Yang cursed, and said: "You are not in the city, calling you for help doesn't mean you are looking for death."

Yuan Mu reassured him with a playful smile, saying that he would definitely be there in a while.

After hanging up the phone just like that, Yang Yang thought about it and felt that now is indeed an opportunity.

After weighing it up, he decided to wait until he was near the Magic Snack Shop before getting out of the car.If there is a real situation at that time, even if Yuan Mu can't catch up, it will be easier to escape in a familiar place.

After making the decision, he asked the driver to stop the car ahead of time.

Before getting out of the car, he deliberately checked the rearview mirror, but found nothing.

After getting out of the car and walking for a while, Yang Yang looked at the surrounding environment, rolled his eyes, and walked to an intersection with a wide-angle lens.

He turned the corner calmly, and then observed with the wide-angle lens.

"really!"

A black shadow appeared on that street, Yang Yang immediately dialed Yuan Mu's phone, and whispered, "The back street of dim sum shop."

"Got it, I'll be there in a minute."

Yuan Mu immediately replied.

Although I don't know if this guy can really fly over within 1 minute, Yang Yang doesn't have too much worry in his heart.

Because if the follower wants to do something, he has already done it before he just got out of the car or did not take a taxi.

After walking for about a minute, he never looked back.

"bump!"

A sudden noise startled him.

When I looked back, I saw two figures behind me floating in the air, fighting fiercely.

Yang Yang took a closer look, and found that the two figures were surrounded by a layer of transparent light.

He immediately found a place to hide. Seeing the two people in the air fighting inextricably, he was not sure whether Yuan Mu had rushed over.

After a while, the two figures separated and stopped in midair.

Only now did Yang Yang see clearly that the one on the left was Yuan Mu.

The two people in the air seemed to say something, and then fell to the ground.

"Brother Yang!"

"Cher!"

Yang Yang was about to get closer to see what happened, but suddenly he was startled by Michelle who appeared behind him.

"How did you come?"

"I rushed over when I heard their voices." Michelle explained and walked to Yang Yang.

"Follow me and see what's going on over there."

Yang Yang didn't say much, he pulled Michelle and walked towards Yuan Mu together.

The people standing next to Yuan Mu seemed to be shrouded in a cloud of black mist, unable to see their figures clearly.

Yuan Mu looked at the man seriously, and stood motionless.

The man looked back at Yang Yang and Michelle, and suddenly lowered his head.

The black fog dissipated, and under the dim light of the street lamps, a head of red hair shone.

"Miss Chacha!"

Michelle opened her small mouth in surprise, and shouted in disbelief.

The expression on Chacha's face was a bit complicated, she forced a smile at Michelle, and then glanced at Yang Yang.

"Are you doubting me with your posture?" She said calmly.

Yuan Mu didn't speak, Yang Yang hesitated, and said, "You followed me just now?"

Chacha suddenly smiled coldly, "So what if you are, so what if you are not?"

"Sister Chacha, you... what's wrong with you?"

Like a frightened little rabbit, Michelle stretched out her hand in a panic, trying to persuade Chacha to stop.

"It's nothing, Xue'er, you just need to trust me, I don't care about the others."

Chacha snorted coldly, as if she was not going to explain anything, she turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute, just want to leave without saying a word?"

Yuan Mu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

Chacha had a funny face, and looked back at him: "Hmph, can you still stop me?"

Yuan Mu and her looked at each other for a long time, then suddenly shrugged, and said with a playful smile: "Forget it, I never bully beautiful women."

After speaking, he shook his head and left.

Yang Yang called him, but he didn't look back.

"You, what's the matter with you?"

He turned to look at Chacha, but the latter glared at him: "You suspect that I'm following you?"

"Is not it?"

"Hmph, good intentions don't pay off! I'm just telling you that you're being followed, idiot!"

Chacha said something coldly, then turned and left, leaving only Yang Yang standing there in astonishment.
