Alien Executioner

This was a one-sided suppression, with each strike of the black and red tentacles tearing at the fatal spot. They frantically sniffed at the Devouring Sorrow, scrambling to devour it. These no longer blind monsters spread nightmare-like screams of fear, which numbed every phagocytic cell of the other party, gradually withering and breaking.

"Ashan..." The black figure made a vague sound. It sounded like a name, a woman's name, but it was so clear.

The monster was hung in the air with a tentacle piercing its heart, and all the tentacles were waiting, ready to rush over and crush it completely at any time.

An Ran didn't care at all about the Half-Death level monster that was about to be "executed" at any time. It was not because he was tired, but because he was waiting.

The footsteps came from a thousand meters away. It was the only sound of footsteps. The person gradually approached, walked through the grass, and stopped for a few seconds in the middle, as if picking flowers. Finally, the footsteps got closer.

It was a familiar taste, very impressive.

"Xu Yanqian?" An Ran's voice was a little low.

"Give me some time to talk to her. It won't be long." The woman didn't look at her, and she didn't know who she was talking to.

After saying that, the woman raised her head and looked at An Ran. The two looked at each other and their faces were clearly revealed.

"I haven't seen you for a month, Naya."

An Ran looked at her with little emotion on her face. She realized that Xu Yanqian had just been talking to her sister, but she couldn't find her sister around.

She was very surprised at the appearance of this woman. She did not expect her to appear in front of her like this.

Come to think of it, I haven't seen Xu Yanqian for a long time.

After hesitating for a moment, An Ran spoke:

"I thought my sister had killed you."

"That's what you just said. Oh my, it would be great if I really died. Then no one would be able to bother you anymore, right?"

Xu Yanqian gave a meaningful smile. Her eyes were still as gentle as she remembered, but less intimate.

"I don't know what you're talking about." An Ran looked down at the seemingly insignificant woman in front of him, "You shouldn't be here."

"Why, are you afraid that An Xin will hunt me down?"

"No matter what the reason is, I don't want to see you in Huacheng."

"It seems like you don't want me to die." Xu Yanqian was laughing. "Okay, let's not talk about this, or your sister might not be able to bear it. You are her monster, not mine. To be honest, this is a pity for me, but no matter what, I feel relieved to see you now."

An Ran opened her mouth, not understanding what this woman was trying to do.

She was alert and hid her confusion.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your meal so suddenly. I will leave here soon, but before that, I hope to see my sister."

"my sister?"

"You heard wrong, it's not yours, it's mine." Xu Yanqian smiled, "Your mother, to be honest, you are quite stupid, don't you know who I am?"

"You are my aunt." An Ran was silent for a moment. "I have actually guessed it, but there is no direct evidence. The aura on you is the same as the aura on the pendant my sister gave me."

"I thought you would never know if I didn't tell you." Xu Yanqian pretended to be surprised.

"So this is your purpose, but I think it has nothing to do with me." An Ran was silent again. She was thinking:

"My family has hidden a lot of things from me, but I rarely take the initiative to explore because I don't think it's necessary. Since you want to meet your mother, you can just go find her directly."

"I'm just afraid your sister won't allow it." Xu Yanqian spread her hands helplessly, "You have to get your sister's consent, right?"

"So you came to me."

"I think you are your sister's only weakness." She said bluntly, "If it were you, I think she would definitely agree."

"I think she doesn't want me to have too much contact with you."

"Please, it's worth my taking care of you all these years." Xu Yanqian said, glancing in one direction.

An Ran also looked there, there was nothing there, empty.

"Do you really think I will repay your favor, Xu Yanqian?"

"Call me Auntie. I still hope you can call me that one day."

"Don't even think about it. Although I don't hate you, I definitely don't like you either." An Ran controlled his tentacles to wander around Xu Yanqian. "You have too many secrets. In my eyes, you are a black hole full of unknowns. I hate mysterious things. If you are not careful, you will be doomed."

"I'm very happy that you think this way, because you value me very much. Similarly, I value you very much, definitely no less than An Xin." Xu Yanqian stretched out her hand, holding a beautiful white flower.

But An Ran's attention was not on the flowers. She saw a terrible scar on Xu Yanqian's wrist, which looked like a mixture of corrosion and burning.

"Your sister didn't know how to control her severity. She doesn't care about me, her aunt, at all." Xu Yanqian's smile gradually disappeared, and her eyes were a little melancholy.

"When I told you that I was your aunt, I was wondering if you would have more reaction, but you were too calm. I felt a little disappointed for some reason."

"Is your disappointment real?"

"It's true."

"But how do I know if it is true?" An Ran retracted her large tentacles and returned to her original form. She stood in front of the woman.

"You are too wary of me."

"I have to do this." An Ran looked at her, "I can't trust anyone except her. She is the most important person to me."⑵

"I also have an important person, but I have never told anyone. It is actually a torment to keep someone dear to you in your heart, you know." Xu Yanqian stretched out her hand.

"You've changed a lot. You used to be a confused and lovely girl. I couldn't help but feel pity for you."

"Who is that person?" An Ran couldn't help but ask.

"That's a very good question, because..." Scar

Xu Yanqian did not answer immediately. Her hand, which was stretched out in the air, paused, and then she retracted it. She turned sideways, her eyes filled with an unprecedented longing.

"I forgot. I had forgotten her. I once forced myself to recall, but all I got was the quicksand of memory. What a broken memory."

"What do you want to say? I promise you." An Ran took two steps back and kept his distance. "I will tell my sister about this. There is no need for you to say something irrelevant."

"Thank you." Xu Yanqian smiled again, and it didn't look like a fake smile. "I didn't mean to say anything. Just treat it as nonsense."

Chapter 275 Hungry Worms (XV)

In the medical department of the FACA building, the lights in the corridor flickered with strange clicking sounds. There was no one on the entire floor, making it seem particularly deserted.

In the dim nursing ward, faint rustlings could be heard as the ventilator moved, and the girl huddled at the foot of the bed.

Xu Sinuo wrapped herself in the quilt to make herself feel less cold. She was shivering all over and her tired eyes were wide open.

She held a small mirror in her hand and looked clearly through the light from the corridor outside the concierge's office. The familiar face was still in the mirror.

She saw herself in the mirror, but she also saw something subtle. "She" was attached to another face, appearing and disappearing.

It was a white-haired woman whose figure gradually became clearer and then fainter. She appeared in the mirror, accompanied by flickering lights.

This is the woman in my dream.

Whenever Xu Sinuo fell into a deep sleep, he would always see this familiar face. The woman was illusory, as if she did not exist in this world, but she would always appear at night, wreaking havoc in his dreams and torturing his tired spirit.

When Xu Sinuo saw the blurry face in the mirror, she was stunned at first, and then fell into deep doubt about her own mental state.

She stared blankly at herself in the mirror. As time passed, her head would suddenly feel swollen and painful - the woman was too familiar, so familiar that she was as scary as a family member.

The woman seemed not to come from the dream, nor from any place in the world. She was not a nightmare, nothing, but she had an unbreakable bond with herself.

just like--

She comes from within.

"who are you……"

The girl talked to herself unbearably, as if hoping the person in the mirror would give her an answer.

But time passed quickly and nothing special happened in the mirror, except that the blurry face gradually became clear.

Xu Sinuo's body was aching all the time, which was caused by injuries from previous battles and the effects of overeating. She forced herself to hold on.

The pain finally passed, and she was a little dazed, not knowing how much time had passed.

I turned my head and looked out the window, but no light came through the gaps in the curtains.

Is it evening?

Xu Sinuo looked at the mirror again. She vaguely remembered that the white-haired woman in the mirror had spoken to her. It was like a trance-like dream.

"who are you……"

"If I kill you, I can get the truth... but how can I kill you..."

She asked hoarsely, repeating the process several times but no longer holding out hope.

Recalling everything he had experienced at KFC, Xu Sinuo was convinced that it was not a dream.

She believed that the appearance of the woman must be related to her past excessive binge eating. Senior An Ran and Section Chief Li Fei had both emphasized this to her. The price of binge eating was quite terrible. Every time she nourished Wu with flesh and blood, she was awakening the dormant memories inside.

Perhaps the white-haired woman is the memory of "fall".

Xu Sinuo took a deep breath. She realized that she could not hide it any longer. The changes in her body were actually not scary. After all, with the current level of medical technology, there must be corresponding measures. But the imperceptible slight changes were the most scary, just like now.

She didn't think this woman was a good sign for her.

In the dream that appeared in the restaurant, the white-haired woman chopped off Sister Tang's head in front of her.

Although it was just a dream, it had a great impact on Xu Sinuo's psychology.

She wasn't sure whether the white-haired woman really existed, or whether she was some indescribable existence, or maybe it was just a mental illness caused by her overeating.

But no matter what, the appearance of the white-haired woman does foreshadow Sister Tang’s death.

She didn't want Sister Tang to die.

Now Xu Sinuo is still in a deep state of doubt. She wants to see for herself what this so-called white-haired woman is.

She picked up the mirror and looked carefully.

I rubbed my eyes to make sure that what I saw in the mirror was not an illusion. In the mirror, the vague face was attached to my own face.

It's so unreal.

Xu Sinuo closed his eyes, finally lay down, put down the mirror and wanted to rest for a while.

"Don't be in such a hurry to go to bed. You haven't eaten for a day." Someone suddenly spoke next to him.

Hearing the slightly familiar voice, Xu Sinuo, who should have fallen asleep, shook off his tiredness and was stunned for a moment.

She stood up suddenly, only to see the white-haired woman she missed day and night sitting beside the bed. The woman was wearing a Gothic dance dress, like a princess from a dark fairy tale.

Xu Sinuo felt like he was hallucinating again. He rubbed his eyes several times, unable to believe that this woman appeared in front of him like this.

"Stop rubbing your eyes. This is not a dream." The woman smiled, stretched out her hand, and lifted the quilt with some boredom.

A breeze flowed into the quilt, and Xu Sinuo shivered because of the cold. She suddenly realized that this was not a dream, but a reality.

But how could she appear in reality?

"Don't look at me so warily. This is not the first time we meet." The woman tilted her head.

She has a mature body, which is undoubtedly the same as a normal human being, but to Xu Sinuo, the woman gives him the illusion of being a child.

"Is this a dream?" Xu Sinuo confirmed calmly. Unless he had a brain accident, it was impossible for him to believe that the woman in front of him was real.

“Maybe. I’m not sure.” The woman shook her head. “It depends on how you think about it.”

Xu Sinuo pursed her lips, and the fear that should have been in her heart began to fade away. If this was just a dream, then there was nothing to be afraid of.

She pinched her arm hard and felt a sharp pain.

"You you you——" Xu Sinuo was so scared that he almost rolled off the bed.

"Pfft, am I that scary?" The woman tried hard to hold back her laughter. "I thought we would get along very well."

"What harmony! You are just a white-haired female ghost..." Xu Sinuo rolled up the quilt and shrank to the end of the bed, trying to keep a safe distance from him as much as possible.

"Are you that scared of me?"

"How do I know what you are?" Xu Sinuo poked his head out and looked at the woman in this story. "You always appear in my dreams, torturing me over and over again. Who on earth are you? And now you can actually bring dreams into reality!"

"I didn't know who I was when I first woke up." The woman said, "I have been by your side since you were very young, but you couldn't see me."

Xu Sinuo hesitated. "According to what you said, you are a possessed ghost. What you said is so mysterious. It's a little hard for me to understand."

"People who know nothing are the happiest. Some people know everything but still pretend not to know." The woman suddenly said calmly.

"You speak so literary, but it lacks the elegant and sad atmosphere of careful study of words." Xu Sinuo gradually lost his fear and continued:

"You're not really a ghost, are you?"

"That's actually true, because I died a long time ago." The white-haired woman looked at her. They had similar faces, but they seemed so unreal.
