From picking up corpses to becoming a true god of America

Chapter 137 Are you planning to go solo?

After handing the evidence over to Louise, Ye Xiao went to the remote farm he had previously rented.

He believed in Louise's abilities and was sure she could resolve the matter quickly.

All Ye Xiao can do now is wait.

However, he must make some preparations beforehand.

The farm was quiet, as if no one was there at all.

Strangely, the surrounding wheat and corn were lush and growing well.

Just as Ye Xiao was about to step into the farm, the cornfield behind him suddenly spoke.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

Ye Xiao did not answer, but turned his head slightly and soon saw a thin figure suddenly appear in the cornfield that was taller than a person. He guessed it was another child that Klingen had adopted from somewhere.

She looked as petite as a fifteen or sixteen-year-old student, and must have been doing farm work just now, as she was wearing a rough, dirty coarse cloth shirt and jeans.

He had short gray hair and lingering sores on his face, suggesting he had recently contracted the virus, but his bright orange eyes were sparkling and exceptionally bright.

"I'm here to see Klingen."

"Do you know Lord Klingen?"

The girl's wariness grew stronger, just like Klingen's back then.

"Of course, if I hadn't saved his life back then, he might not be alive today."

"What?"

These words clearly angered the girl, and a flash of fire appeared in her orange eyes.

"How dare you slander my lord!"

With that, the girl gripped the steel fork tightly and suddenly charged at Ye Xiao.

Is she really that reckless?

Ye Xiao turned around and skillfully dodged the steel fork.

"Calm down, you could easily hurt someone like this."

"I'm going to kill you!"

The girl retorted angrily, "Lord Klingen instructed us before he left that this place must never be discovered!"

"You damned cops!"

The girl roared angrily, her steel fork flashing as she thrust forward.

It was obvious that she mistook Ye Xiao for an FBI agent or police investigator.

Although Ye Xiao was indeed doing it, it was all for the sake of making a living.

"Calm down."

Ye Xiao couldn't deny it, so he could only dodge the steel forks while explaining, "I really am Klingen's friend, we have a very good relationship."

"You're talking nonsense! Lord Klingen has no friends at all! He said it himself!"

no?!

No friends?

When did Klingen become like this?

Ye Xiao was immediately confused and couldn't help but wonder, had Klingen betrayed him?

"Explain yourself clearly."

Ye Xiao didn't give way to the girl either. He suddenly took two quick steps, grabbed her by the back of her hand, and lifted her up like a kitten.

"Ah! You bastard! Let me go!"

Yes, it's not a kitten, it's Hakimi.

The girl was breathing heavily like an elderly person, struggling and waving her hands and feet incessantly.

"Let me go if you dare, let's fight one-on-one!"

"What do you mean, 'one-on-one'? Weren't you just stabbing me with a pitchfork?"

"you!"

The girl was so angry she couldn't speak.

She was confused. She had received the blessing, so why couldn't she defeat this despicable guy?

"Nina!"

Just then, a familiar voice came from afar, along with the rumble of cars.

Klingen returned by car with his men.

Upon seeing it was him, Ye Xiao loosened his grip and released Nina.

"Sir! A bad guy has broken in!"

Nina rushed towards Klingen, hurriedly reminding him, "He's so strong! I can't even beat him; he subdued me in no time!"

"Should we move immediately?"

"hehe."

Klingen chuckled, and so did his burly, oddly-looking but menacing brothers and sisters behind him.

"Nina, you're mistaken, he's not a bad person."

Klingen got out of the car and patted Nina's head.

She was the youngest on the farm, so she received a lot of care from the Klingen people who had lost everything.

"grown ups!"

"Don't be afraid."

Klingen took Nina's hand and walked quickly toward Ye Xiao.

The closer Nina got to the bad guy, the more flustered and nervous she became.

She glanced at Klingen instinctively, only to find a warm smile spreading across his usually indifferent face.

"Sir, you've finally arrived! I've been waiting for you for so long."

gentlemen?

Seeing Klingen's excited expression, Nina was stunned, her mind filled with confusion.

Mr. What?

Nina looked at Ye Xiao, who was almost too young, and became even more confused.

Could this guy be Ye Xiao, Mr. Ye, whom Lord Klingen keeps talking about?

No way?!

In Nina's imagination, Ye Xiao should be like a handsome old man in a movie, with legendary wrinkles on his face, silver hair, and deep, mysterious eyes.

Instead of an overly handsome young male college student.

"oh."

But Ye Xiao didn't seem that excited; in fact, he seemed a little depressed.

"Klingen, are you thinking of going solo?"

"Going solo?"

Klingen was stunned, not understanding what Ye Xiao meant, and suddenly became flustered.

"Sir, are you trying to kick me out?"

"Huh? I'm kicking you out?"

Ye Xiao was also stunned, looking confused: "Didn't you say you didn't consider me a friend anymore?"

"Um?"

The two stared at each other, sensing that something was amiss.

At the farm, everyone was incredibly excited because of Ye Xiao's arrival.

Of course, there was also the reason that he brought a whole carload of whiskey.

Although they have all received the blessing, and many have almost become one with the virus, they still cannot give up their love for alcohol.

At the long table, Klingen explained in detail his previous statement.

The people who came to this farm were mostly poor people expelled from American society, all alone and without any support.

love.

Only Ye Xiao's promise to them could completely overthrow this despicable country.

That's why Klingen said he had no relatives or friends left.

He believed that Ye Xiao had given him his life, so he treated himself as Ye Xiao's tool and weapon.

"Excuse me, sir."

Klingen picked up a bottle of wine and looked apologetically at the sparse, even simple, food on the long table.

"We don't need to eat much, so we didn't prepare any food."

Those who had received the blessing, like Klingen, not only possessed extraordinary bodies but also gained near-immortality.

For them, eating is simply a way to obtain energy.

If necessary, they can even survive on gasoline alone.

Therefore, high-energy and potent drinks like whiskey naturally became their favorites.

"It's okay, I already ate before I came."

Ye Xiao waved his hand, glanced at Nina who was hiding next to Klingen, timidly peeking out and secretly watching him, and endured...

He couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Where did you bring her back from?"

"My situation is similar."

Klingan gave a wry smile: "We found her during a raid on a Mormon camp in Utah."

"She was almost dead from the abuse and begged us to save her mother, but unfortunately, by the time we stormed in, she was already dead."

"I felt so sorry for her, so I shared the blessing with her, and thankfully she pulled through."

Another pitiful person.

Ye Xiao shook his head.

Although he had seen it many times, he was still slightly moved each time.

I have no idea how those bastards could be so cruel to their own kind.

"Sir, is there anything I can do for you?"

Klingen looked at Ye Xiao with a serious expression.

"I have a premonition that unrest will break out in Seattle soon, and I need to gather all my strength."

"Is someone targeting you?!"

Klingen was immediately enraged, looking as if he was about to fight the other party to the death.

Upon hearing this, the surrounding subordinates also gathered around, holding their breath and staring intently at Ye Xiao.

"It's always been a problem, but those people are getting more and more impatient."

Ye Xiao took a sip of his drink and calmly said, "These next few days, you guys go and lie in ambush in the cities surrounding Seattle."

"Is war about to break out?"

"That's right, it won't be long before we have control of the entire city."

"Really?!"

Upon hearing this, Klingen and the others felt their hearts surge with emotion.

Although it's just one city, it represents a significant breakthrough for them.

They were finally able to leave the farm and stand in the sunlight again.

After giving them a brief explanation, Ye Xiao said goodbye and drove away from the farm.

"Is that Mr. Ye Xiao you were talking about?"

Nina couldn't help but ask at this point.

"Of course, you're very young, aren't you?"

Klingen took a deep breath and said with emotion, "If you looked at the gentleman from half a month ago, you would be even more surprised."

By the time we returned to Seattle, it was already getting dark.

On the highway heading west, Ye Xiao drove his car as if he were about to drive into the fiery red sky.

It was getting late, so he arrived at the Catholic church as agreed, pushed open the door to a room on the second floor, and walked in with practiced ease.

In the room, Livia knelt by the bed, her hands clasped together, her pretty face slightly lowered, praying devoutly, her long, black hair cascading down her slender back like silk.

Her fair and delicate face was serious and composed, but her slightly furrowed brows and trembling thick eyelashes betrayed her inner unease.

Ye Xiao walked over slowly, sat on her lap, and casually said, "I'm hungry. Go and cook me two dishes and open a bottle of wine."

'

Livia's lips twitched slightly, as if she was enduring it.

After waiting for a while, she stood up sullenly, her eyebrows furrowed, her hands on her hips, and she said to Ye Xiao with dissatisfaction.

"Could you please be more considerate? This is a church, not your dining hall, and this is also my dormitory. Can you please not be so casual?"

"Oh, hurry up and get some more noodles, I didn't have lunch."

"you!"

Seeing Ye Xiao's shameless behavior, Livia didn't know what to say and could only helplessly turn and leave.

Ye Xiao looked at her desk, opened the small notebook, which was filled with her experiences during this period.

Wow, she even keeps a diary?

Ye Xiao couldn't help but feel curious.

She wouldn't secretly curse me in her diary, would she?

As it turned out, Ye Xiao's worries were completely unfounded.

Livia didn't secretly curse him; instead, she filled her notebook with her dissatisfaction and anger towards Ye Xiao, almost as if venting her emotions.

It can be said that Ye Xiao's name appears on every single page.

So she hated herself that much?

Looking at the contents of the diary, Ye Xiao couldn't help but want to laugh.

It's unbelievable that such a proper nun as Livia would write things like, "Once I have the power, I will make Ye Xiao kowtow and confess his sins," and "I'll remember this debt!"

Without thinking about it carefully, Livia's current posture isn't exactly proper, is it?

Not long after, footsteps came from outside the door.

Ye Xiao quickly turned around, put the diary back in the drawer, and pretended that he hadn't noticed anything, then sat upright on the sofa.

The door opened quickly.

It was clear that Livia had rushed back with a tray in her arms; her hair and clothes were disheveled.

She visibly breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the empty desktop.

"What's wrong with you? Is there a real rush?"

Ye Xiao chuckled and teased, then suddenly became a little curious himself.

What would Livia's reaction be if she found out that she had secretly read Livia's diary?

Maybe she'll fight tooth and nail to kill Ye Xiao.

"It's nothing."

Livia didn't want to talk about palace matters, so she put the plate on the table, picked up a bowl of stewed meat, used a pick to stick a piece of meat into Ye Xiao's mouth, and tried to shut him up with the food.

"Aren't you hungry? Go ahead and eat."

Before Ye Xiao could say anything, Livia stuffed the meat into his mouth.

"Did you do this?"

"How could that be? I don't have time."

Livia pursed her lips, seeing Ye Xiao's apparent regret, and felt a strange urge to try.

She turned her head away and said hesitantly, "No, if you really want to eat it, I'm not afraid to give it a try."

"Never mind, I don't really want to."

"you!"

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.

"Knock knock knock!"

"Don't move, the Justice Bureau is handling a case!"

"Quick, he's in that room!"

Livia sat on the pedestal, bewildered, still not understanding what had happened.

Ye Xiao frowned slightly, stood up and walked outside.

The next second, several uniformed bailiffs suddenly rushed in, pointing their rifles at Ye Xiao.

"Don't move!"

"Target spotted! Repeat, target spotted!"

Ye Xiao silently raised his hands, coldly surveying the group of people in front of him.

bailiffs from the Justice Bureau?

Could it be that Spruance has finally had enough of living and is planning to arrest him?

"Ye Xiao! You've been caught!"

Spruance stormed in, pointing at Ye Xiao and snarling, "What you did before, we couldn't find any evidence against you, but you still dared to lay a hand on Claude!"

"You bastard!"

"What are you talking about?!"

Livia was startled and quickly asked, "Sir, Ye Xiao isn't that kind of person!"

"Um?"

Spruance looked at Livia with confusion, not quite understanding how a nun like her could get involved with Ye Xiao.

However, out of basic courtesy to the clergy, and out of consideration for Yorgos, Spruance still showed basic respect.

"Madam, you've been fooled by this scoundrel."

"This heartless thug not only murdered an innocent young girl, but also dared to lay a hand on our judicial bureau's prosecutors!"

"He's no ordinary thug!"
