The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 514 The King of Assassination
Four o'clock in the morning, Shanqing Hospital, 5F, inpatient building.

It was still dark, and the lights were turned off in the corridor connecting the hospital rooms, making it dark and quiet.

At the end of the corridor, an old man with gray hair was wearing a black Tai Chi suit. He had his eyes closed, his hands clasped together, and one leg of his lower body was raised and placed on the thigh of the other leg. The other leg was bent into a deep squat. posture.

The monkey has maintained the independent movement of the golden rooster for about ten minutes.

The door to the single ward was pushed open, and Officer Huang came out.

He looked at the monkey on the right side of the corridor and walked towards him.

The monkey opened his eyes: "Xiao Huang, are you awake so early?"

Officer Huang smiled bitterly: "I can't sleep well."

There were only ten days left for Su Xi's due date. To be on the safe side, Officer Huang sent her to the hospital early, took annual leave for himself, and stayed with his wife every day.

Su Xi felt that Officer Huang was making a fuss out of a molehill, but Officer Huang was very insistent: As the saying goes, there is nothing important besides life and death, but having a child is the top priority.

As the bodyguard sent by the Chinese Zodiac, Pohou never leaves, but he usually stays outside Su Xi's ward.

The two sat down on a public bench in the corridor. Officer Huang was chewing gum in his mouth. He had quit smoking for a while, and he could only use gum as a substitute when he got addicted to smoking.

"How is Uncle Liu?" Officer Huang asked.

"It's the same as always, shouting that it hurts here and there it hurts..." Pohou said sparsely and normally: "Yesterday, he suddenly wanted to eat stinky tofu and named an old restaurant in Feiyang District. It's not convenient for me to leave, and it's not too bad. I knew how to use a mobile phone, so I had to ask the nurse to order it for me. When the takeout was delivered, he stopped eating it after taking one bite and said it didn’t taste the same.”

Pohou said calmly: "I also took a taste, and it was indeed not the same. No clue, the original boss passed away long ago, and now the grandson is doing it. The craftsmanship has been passed down, but after changing people, The taste is different after all..."

For a while, Officer Huang felt that the world had changed, times had changed, and he felt inexplicably melancholy.

"Master Monkey." Officer Huang hesitated for a moment, then asked: "You joined the Chinese Zodiac just to clarify your relationship with Uncle Liu, right?"

The monkey nodded: "Exactly."

"Uncle Liu's current situation..." Officer Huang smiled bitterly: "Do you think this matter is still important?"

"Haha." Pohou raised his head slightly, thought for a while, and then asked an unexpected question: "Our parents passed away early, and we became orphans when we entered elementary school. At that time, my brother's grades were better than mine, but he dropped out of school. I'm going to work in a small restaurant to make money for my schooling."

"Although I have only finished primary school, I can write a few words, but my life experiences are still very different."

"My brother is greedy and likes to cook and eat, so he goes around selling spicy hotpot on a small old cart. Little did he know that this sale will last his whole life."

"He is my brother and my only relative in this world. No one can change this."

Pohou narrowed his eyes slightly, and the wrinkles on his face expanded a little: "I want to find out the relationship between us, not to satisfy curiosity. Xiao Huang, when you are my age, you will understand that people will never be confused. It must be something bad.”

"I want to figure out the relationship between us, but I just want to be prepared. I hope my brother can die well and not end up in a tragic way. I'm afraid that he will turn into a beast until he dies and find out that he is not a human being and that his whole life will be in vain... I I never want to see something like this happen, and I’m willing to do anything for this.”

Officer Huang was stunned and asked: "Anything?"

"Anything." Spooky nodded.

"Even if this is wrong?" Officer Huang continued to ask.

"Even if it's wrong." Pohou said calmly, "But you have to be prepared to bear the cost."

Officer Huang stopped talking. After a few seconds, he leaned back, closed his eyes slightly, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

A few seconds later, Officer Huang opened his eyes again, his eyes bright: "I have been upgraded." The monkey looked over and said: "It's very fast, it's only been two days."

"Yeah, faster than I expected."

Officer Huang took out his cell phone, intending to notify White Rabbit and ask her to come over and get the elemental rune circuit.

After the Zodiac learned that Officer Huang had understood [Light], he asked Officer Huang to take the elemental runes with him. Just now, Officer Huang's [Light] exceeded level 4.

As soon as Officer Huang found Bai Rabbit's number, his face darkened and he couldn't move his hands.

The same goes for Splashing Monkey. When he came back to his senses, his body was already bound by a cold, weird energy, like a slippery python, wrapped around his whole body.

Both of them are awakened people with elemental talents, and they reacted at the same time:

——It’s [Phantom]!
Sure enough, a small black shadow like a rope silently approached the two of them along the floor, quietly climbed up along the foot of the seat, merged with Officer Huang, the monkey and the shadow, and silently restrained them.

Worthy of being the "King of Assassination" among elemental talents, Officer Huang and Pohou were able to catch him without any notice.

The two did not completely lose the ability to resist, but they did not act rashly.

One is that the phantom that restrained them did not strangle them, but simply restricted their movements.

The second is that the owner of [Phantom] hasn't shown up yet, so they can't find the target to attack.

Soon, Officer Huang discovered two more things.

First, the camera in the corner was destroyed at some point.

Second, the shadow on his chest was moving slowly.

It was a black tentacle transformed from the shadow. It found the elemental rune circuit from the inner pocket of his jacket, and pulled it little by little, trying to take it away.

Officer Huang no longer hesitated and opened his lips slightly: "Shadowless light."

Half a second later, ten small light balls exploded around Officer Huang and the monkey, and they glowed with dazzling light at the same time, as if ten cameras pressed the shutter and turned on the flash at different angles at the same time.

In an instant, the phantom that restrained Officer Huang and the monkey disappeared - not really disappearing, but it had faded to the point where it could be ignored.

Officer Huang easily broke free from the shackles of the Phantom and took the rune element back into his hand.

The monkey also stood up and prepared to fight.But he did not activate his talent easily. This is a hospital after all. Once the earth element is mobilized to fight, it will cause too much disturbance and make a big fuss.

"Come out." Officer Huang looked towards the front of the corridor. There was a small ball of light elements suspended at the corner of the corridor 20 meters away. It was the "scout" sent by Officer Huang.

A few seconds later, a tall, thin black figure walked out of the corner of the corridor.

A young man of model proportions with a small head, wearing a gray T-shirt, a loose and casual black suit and trousers, a pair of dirty sneakers, and a black baseball cap.

He put his hands in his trouser pockets, and his palm-sized face was slightly raised. His skin was smooth and firm, healthy wheat color, bright small eyes, high nose bridge, and thin lips.

Half of the young man's face was illuminated by the ball of light, exuding a sexy and ruthless playboy temperament.

He half-smiled: "Officer Huang, long time no see."
