Xie Chiyuan understood perfectly: "The Red Bird Organization doesn't necessarily need to kill this monster, but we absolutely must."
“Pei Si, the chances of me dying are slim, so don’t worry too much. I called you out to tell you that if I’m injured to the point of unconsciousness, then the rest of the business will be up to you.”
"That also includes taking me back."
Pei Si was personally trained by Xie Chiyuan, and his thinking often followed Xie Chiyuan's lead, so entrusting him with the next steps was the best option.
"Brother Xie, I understand. I will carry out your arrangements."
Their conversation wasn't loud, but the little butterfly perched nearby could hear it clearly.
Little Butterfly knew the magician's nature; the magician dreamed of killing Xie Chiyuan. After all, the magician had suffered quite a bit in the abandoned Elm City last time.
The only thing he managed to lose was the money he had saved for his wife, which Xie Chiyuan later got back.
He flapped his wings slightly, quickly considering whether or not to save this person he also disliked.
If they don't save him, Xie Chiyuan might be blown up and killed, at which point their mutant forms would pose no threat whatsoever.
If Xie Chiyuan encounters him again, he will kill him.
Little Butterfly's eyes were fixed on Xie Chiyuan. Whether to save him or not not only concerned him, but also her older brother's food supply.
Xie Chiyuan is not only the enemy of the mutants, but also the blood bag for his elder brother.
In the blink of an eye, the little butterfly had made its decision.
at the same time.
Yu An was getting restless on the sofa. He had called Xie Chiyuan several times, but no one answered. And he didn't have many numbers saved on his phone.
"When I go back this time, I'll buy you a few children's cell phones."
Yu An felt the trouble caused by the lack of communication. Not only could he not get through to Xie Chiyuan's mobile phone, but even Xiao Hudie, who went out, did not have a mobile phone.
Children's phones are small and easy to carry.
Once I get these for my kids, I'll never have to worry about losing contact with them again.
Since no one was in the room, Hachiko had already climbed out of the pocket. For aberrations, maintaining animal mimicry is the most relaxing thing for them.
Xiao Ba didn't like the room, which was filled with Xie Chiyuan's traces. He drooped his little tentacles, looking uninterested: "Big brother, do we really have to follow Xie Chiyuan?"
Yu An gently squeezed Ba Zai's little tentacles to comfort him: "It's easier for us to find the other cubs if we follow Xie Chiyuan. If it weren't for Xie Chiyuan, I wouldn't have been able to find you this time."
Ba Zai still dislikes Xie Chiyuan.
He complained, "Xie Chiyuan wanted to slice me up and plate me whenever he saw me. He said that it was worthwhile to raise seafood like me, because he could keep slicing me!"
Yu An: "..."
Yu An promised, "I promise I won't let him cut you again."
His eight cubs aren't some small seafood; they're his babies!
Xie Chiyuan can't always be cutting his family's seafood, oh no, I mean he can't always be cutting his family's baby!
Yu An coaxed the unhappy Ba Zai, and soon the easy-going Ba Zai was appeased.
He looked at the time and felt that waiting idly wasn't a solution.
"Little Eight, Little Nine."
Yu An asked for their opinions: "Do you think I should go out and look for them? Given the current speed in the real world, I've been missing for several days now, and they should be getting anxious looking for me by now."
Judging from the marks on the hotel door, something else probably happened during the days I was looking for him.
Eight-Zai was very enthusiastic about going out. He looked towards the door, eager to try: "Big Brother, let's go out! My sound waves can travel very far! I can call Six-Zai back."
Yu An rejected the idea without hesitation: "No, by the time Sixth Boy hears it, everyone else will hear it too."
He would stay by Xie Chiyuan's side until he found all the children.
He wasn't really confident he could stay with Xie Chiyuan indefinitely, since he had no real connection with Xie Chiyuan. The fact that Xie Chiyuan was allowing him to follow was simply out of kindness.
Yu An was very self-aware. Now that he was by Xie Chiyuan's side, his first priority was not to cause Xie Chiyuan any trouble!
They also couldn't reveal their own child, putting Xie Chiyuan in a dilemma of whether to kill or not.
"Big brother."
After thinking it over carefully, Xiao Jiu decided to take the safest approach: "I can go check, but you have to stay in the room."
"It's raining outside, so it's inconvenient to go out. But I'm not afraid of the rain; I can send lots of little mushrooms to find them."
"Ba Zai, you stay with your older brother."
Xiao Jiu left without hesitation, instructing Ba Zai to keep an eye on his older brother: "I'll be back as soon as it gets dark, whether I've found him or not. They'll probably be back to sleep by then."
Yu An didn't want him to leave.
Xiao Jiu left behind a strand of her original mycelium and handed it to her elder brother: "Brother, my original body is here, and I can come back anytime."
Yu An looked at the mycelium in his hand, hesitated, and nodded.
Time passed second by second.
Yu An moved a chair to the window and sat down, staring intently outside.
Ba Zai leaned closer, trying to ask his older brother if his relationship with Xie Chiyuan was good, and to what extent it was good.
Thinking of Xie Chiyuan, who had been kind to him, Yu An spoke the truth: "Xie Chiyuan is a good person! If it weren't for him, I might not even have clothes to wear right now."
Bazai: "???"
Ba Zai's mind went blank for a few seconds. He asked in a daze, "What do you mean I can't even put on clothes?! Big brother, who's stopping you from wearing clothes?!"
Bazai knew that his older brother was good-looking, and that there was still lewd lust in the dirty human world.
Could it be that his older brother—
“I mean, without Xie Chiyuan, I wouldn’t be able to wear such nice clothes. I used to wear hand-me-downs outside, but after I met Xie Chiyuan, he made me a lot of clothes.”
Yu An promptly interrupted Ba Zai's associations, explaining how good Xie Chiyuan had been to him.
Ba Zai felt that the Xie Chiyuan his older brother was talking about was a different person from the Xie Chiyuan he had met.
He asked, puzzled, "Is Xie Chiyuan always this kind to humans?"
Yu An shook her head blankly: "I don't know, I haven't seen how he interacts with others. I guess he's the same way with everyone else."
Pei Si, who had followed Xie Chiyuan for many years without receiving a single handmade gift from him, was fortunate not to have heard these words.
Otherwise, one would be so grief-stricken that one would vomit blood.
After pretending to ponder for a long time, Ba Zai said, "It seems that Xie Chiyuan treats mutants differently than he treats people. He has double standards."
Reminded like this, Yu An suddenly felt a strange sense of unease.
Xie Chiyuan's treatment of mutants... is different only for infant mutants. He is not human, not an infant mutant, and not even an infant zombie.
He was a fully grown zombie with a family, including a bunch of deformed offspring.
This is clearly within Xie Chiyuan's minefield.
If Xie Chiyuan knew his background, would he kill him?
Yu An couldn't figure out the answer to this question at all. He forced himself not to think about it, figuring he'd just take it one day at a time.
It rained for a very long time.
The cars were still parked outside the bathhouse.
In such rainy weather, the only way to use explosives is through the magician's special ability to create a spatial dimension, which has delayed the original plan until now.
Yin Feng was a man of few words, and he was carefully observing the monster's weaknesses.
They've been dealing with this monster for several days now.
Yin Feng was both bold and meticulous, and he actually discovered that the monster's eyesight wasn't very good. These past few nights, he had been hiding very well.
He is more likely to retaliate during the day.
The attack was scheduled for nighttime. Just before it began, Xie Chiyuan looked at the magician behind him and asked in a low voice, "Is the space ready?"
The magician's smile was bright and exaggerated, and his voice was full of joy: "Of course, I've prepared a very sturdy space to ensure that this big guy won't escape."
He said he wouldn't let the big guy escape, but his tone implied, "I won't let you escape either."
Xie Chiyuan seemed not to have grasped his subtext.
After glancing at the sky, he got up and got out of the car.
The explosives were properly wrapped, making this method significantly more efficient than Xie Chiyuan's method of severing the monsters' heads one by one with bone blades.
The monster's head grew too fast; it was difficult for him to cut it off cleanly.
Pei Si, Lu Chao, and Yin Feng were all staring intently at his retreating figure. Pei Si's gaze finally settled on the magician.
He reminded them, "You Red Birds will still need nutritional paste in the future. Dr. Ruan, who made the nutritional paste, is Xie Chiyuan's father's partner."
He was reminding the magician that Xie Chiyuan had to stay alive for the sake of the nutritional paste and for future cooperation.
The magician's smile remained unchanged; it was unclear whether he had heeded the warnings.
soon.
Xie Chiyuan and the magician's collaboration officially began; Xie Chiyuan had forced the monster out. Holding the bone blade, his expression was colder than the rain in the night.
"Magician, open a spatial dimension!"
With a sharp shout, the magician opened up a space in the next second.
Xie Chiyuan entered the space almost at the same time as the monster, so Pei Si and the others couldn't see what happened inside.
The sound of an explosion could be faintly heard through the barrier of space.
After the explosion, the magician should have opened a space to let Xie Chiyuan out. But in those few brief seconds, the magician suddenly slowed down, as if his hand had slipped.
Pei Si roared angrily, "Open the space! My brother Xie is still inside!"
With explosives powerful enough to kill monsters and a space engulfed in flames, every second Xie Ge stayed meant another second of danger.
The magician leaned back lazily in his chair, a smile on his face, but his voice feigned distress: "Oh dear, my space has been used up too much. I need a few minutes to reopen it."
"Xie Chiyuan is so strong, he shouldn't die, right?"
The magician's voice trailed off with a hint of laughter at the end.
