Chapter 471 Night Detective(1/2)
Night.
Hohhot, hotel.
Jiang Ning leaned on the soft sofa, crossed his legs, and picked up the goblet. The cup was filled with dark brown liquid, with tiny bubbles rising.
Outside the large floor-to-ceiling windows, the lights are bright and colorful, giving the city a gorgeous and dazzling coat.
He shook the cup gently and drank the Coke in one gulp.
Xue Yuantong was arranging his luggage. She was holding a porcelain plate. Seeing his comfortable look, she couldn't help but say to him:
"Humph, look how happy you are!"
She wrapped the porcelain plate and carefully placed it on the folded clothes to provide a cushioning effect.
This is a small underglaze colored plate that she painted by herself in the porcelain capital. The surface of the plate is as white as jade and has a colorful bird printed on it.
This porcelain plate has witnessed her journey and is suitable as a gift for Chu Chu.
The train time is 10 a.m. tomorrow, and it takes a full 20 hours from Hohhot to Yuzhou.
Jiang Ning booked a premium soft sleeper, with a double bed and a separate bathroom, just like a standard room in a hotel, so the trip was actually very enjoyable.
Jiang Ning admired the night view and had no intention of helping Tongtong clean up.
Even though she sometimes complained, if Jiang Ning really helped, she would actually dislike it.
The corners of Jiang Ning's mouth rose, and a faint smile appeared on her face. She was still as stubborn as before.
Recalling that a long time ago, he went on a business trip with a mission and did everything himself. Now that the division of labor is clear, he is indeed countless times more comfortable.
Jiang Ning took out her iPad, and after unlocking it, a page full of game icons jumped into her eyes, accompanied by an elegant transition animation.
From the beginning, Xue Yuantong was limited in playing this iPad, and now it has almost become an exclusive game console.
He had asked Tongtong before if he could play so many games.
Xue Yuantong said that even if he can't play it, it looks very safe like this!
Not to mention, Jiang Ning really felt this way when she saw a whole page of games. Even if the whole world is disconnected, these games are enough to kill a lot of time.
He clicked on a game that Tong Tong often played, Hearthstone.
Previously, she used the Mechanical Magic deck to conquer the ladder, and after defeating all the great masters, she began to study new routines to torture people.
After entering the game, Jiang Ning discovered that Xue Yuantong had hoarded a lot of gold coins.
He asked: "What do you do with so many gold coins? Why don't you spend them?"
Xue Yuantong continued to pack his luggage without raising his head: "Tch, you don't understand, I like the feeling of saving money."
Jiang Ning smiled and said: "What a coincidence, I like the feeling of spending money."
Xue Yuantong doesn't value the results of the game. Even if her account is destroyed, she still doesn't care. Those things are virtual after all. For her, Jiang Ning is the most important person.
She assumed the posture of a rich lady: "Spend it, spend it. If you don't have enough money, I will make more money for you."
…
Xue Yuantong packed up everything. It was already 10:30 in the evening. She played a game for a while and reluctantly left Jiang Ning's house and returned to her own room.
After she left, the room quickly became silent, as if it had lost its life.
Jiang Ning lightly tapped his fingers, and in an instant, all the lights went out. He leaned in the darkness and looked out the window at the gorgeous lights of the city.
After becoming a practitioner, sleeping is not a daily necessity for Jiang Ning.
But in order to make himself more like an ordinary person, most of the time, he chooses to sleep at night, and occasionally, like now, he sits quietly all night.
Perhaps to ordinary people, this seems lonely. After all, only people with insomnia do this behavior.
But Jiang Ning didn't notice anything. His consciousness was like a dark cloud, covering the buildings, streets, and vehicles below. He could "see" many things.
In a Porsche car on the street, a young woman coquettishly told the fat male owner of the car how much she loved him in the days before he came.
In fact, Jiang Ning's consciousness flashed, and the dopamine in the woman's brain was always at a normal level. She was lying.
In the living room of the building diagonally opposite, a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old told his parents that he had just returned from tutoring. In fact, Jiang Ning inspected the stains on his clothes and determined that he had just returned from the Internet cafe.
In the restaurant next door, the chef reprimanded the young man who was wearing lotus. The young man appeared to be obedient, but when he turned around, his face was filled with coldness.
Jiang Ning watched everything silently. A pair of huge eyes seemed to appear above the night sky in Hohhot, overlooking the earth.
Within a radius of two miles, you can control the place with the richest spiritual power, the most delicious food, and the most beautiful women...
This kind of omniscience, omnipotence, and ability to see into everything is better than all rights and money. It is an ability that is comparable to the gods, and it is easy for people to fall into it.
Jiang Ning only used it to kill time. After playing for a while, he withdrew his consciousness, closed his eyes, and disappeared into the darkness.
…
1am.
Three kilometers outside the hotel, several people were standing on the roadside.
A woman of about twenty-six or seventy-seven, wearing a windbreaker and tall. At this time, her face was painted with makeup, but it was full of anger, acrimony, and meanness.
"Catch him, you must catch him. I want to see what he did behind my back!" When she screamed, her hands grabbed randomly, as if she was suffering from bipolar disorder.
Next to him, a man with a pattern tattooed on his neck is holding a cigarette and looks quite quack-like:
"Sister, don't worry, my brother-in-law must pay the price if he dares to play around."
He smiled heartily: "Sister, don't forget, after the divorce, I will be given a house in Su City!"
The woman in the trench coat said sharply: "Once you catch him, beat him hard, and the mistress, I will beat her to death and strip her naked!"
The tattooed man said to the brothers behind him: "Did you hear that?"
A few young people who were grumpy and not like good people laughed and said: "Don't worry, we are good at this kind of thing."
Next to the woman in the trench coat, there was a woman in a suit. She was a lawyer. Looking at this scene, many thoughts were flowing in her heart.
The woman in the trench coat was an only child, and she was pampered since childhood. Later she married a well-known local financial man. The financial man was young and rich, and he also doted on her. She was living a good life.
The woman in the trench coat often had her hair done, and she was so obsessed with it that she actually got close to the hairdresser.
The barber was also not simple. After getting married, the barber urged the woman to divorce quickly. In order to get more property, he even refused to let the woman in the trench coat sleep with her husband, thus forcing them to divorce.
Sure enough, the financial man was treated like this and found a new love. After the woman in the trench coat got hold of the evidence, she took a plane and traveled halfway across the country to arrest him.
The woman in the suit smiled bitterly. She took out her mobile phone and saw her good friend Guo Ran sent a WeChat message asking when she would return to Nanshi.
The woman in the suit replied: "Ran Ran, don't mention it, I'm almost speechless."
However, as a lawyer, justice is hard to live by, and making money is the right thing to do, so she took the job.
"At the Blue Spring Hotel!" the woman in the trench coat said bitterly, with a vicious light shining in her eyes.
…
Blue Springs Hotel.
Jiang Ning originally closed his eyes to sleep. Suddenly, his consciousness trembled and he suddenly opened his eyes.
With a flash of his figure, the door opened on its own and his body appeared outside.
A scene appeared in front of him. The woman in the windbreaker was holding the room card and was swiping towards Xue Yuantong's door. Next to the woman in the windbreaker, there were women in suits and several strong men.
When the group of people saw Jiang Ning appear, they were obviously stunned.
Immediately, the woman in the trench coat gritted her teeth and said, "When the door opens, you can just take out the couple!"
Jiang Ning saw that she kept moving, and he said: "You checked the wrong room. The person you are looking for is upstairs. My friend is in this room."
As soon as these words came out, the woman in the trench coat paused and shouted:
"Which one are you?"
Her tone was aggressive and she didn't put anyone in her eyes.
Then, he still went his own way and reached out to swipe the room card.
Jiang Ning waved his hand, and then the room card appeared in his hand.
His tone was calm and his eyes were indifferent: "I told you, there is my friend in the room, and you found the wrong one."
The woman in the trench coat was already filled with anger. She grew up in a very good family and was loved by all. Outside, she was the target of boys vying to please her.
For her, the world is an easy mode, so why is she treated like this?
She just wanted to go crazy, but someone was faster than her.
The tattooed man's face darkened, his muscles tensed, and he shook his head with his neck, making a vicious look like he was about to hit someone.
He suddenly approached and shouted: "You damn boy, do you want to die?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ning kicked out, hitting the tattooed man in the stomach. His whole body was almost deformed by the kick, and he flew three meters away and landed sideways on the wall.
When the inertia disappeared, he slowly slid from the wall to the ground under the influence of gravity.
When the woman in the trench coat saw her cousin being beaten, she screamed:
"Beat him to death, beat him to death! Beat him to death!"
To be continued...
