63 The Girl’s Other Food
Xing Rong turned around and looked at the man in a suit who came out of the bedroom behind him, his face filled with vigilance.
“Who are you?”
The man in the suit smiled at Xing Rong and then walked to Shou Hou’s side and sat down.
“Mr. Xing Rong, sorry to disturb you.”
“If you’re not satisfied with the conditions he mentioned just now, you can raise any requests.”
“Our subsequent actions will not have any negative impact, let alone implicate you.
“I just need you to give me the address. How about that?”
Looking at the very polite man in a suit opposite him, Xing Rong said helplessly,
“I really don’t know.”
“I’ve indeed seen the person you’re talking about, but he’s already moved.”
Moreover, even if he really knew, it was impossible for him to say it.
They were willing to spend so much money, but they were so secretive. It was definitely not something good.
Moreover, Xing Rong did not believe them at all.
Although he was not very cultured, Xing Rong still understood the principle that freebies would not fall from the sky.
The two of them saw that Xing Rong was still stubborn and refused to say anything.
Shou Hou frowned tightly.
He was already certain that Xing Rong knew.
This was just an excuse to not say it.
“Xingrong, if you still treat me as a brother, just say it.”
“What business can’t we do with this money?”
Looking at Shou Hou who was already a little anxious, Xing Rong frowned.
“Shou Hou, you… you weren’t like this before.”
Looking at the still stubborn Xing Rong, Shou Hou wanted to say something, but the man in a suit at the side waved his hand and stopped Shou Hou.
“Looks like I can only execute another plan.”
With that said, the man took out a small bottle containing red liquid from his pocket.
After opening it, he placed it in front of Shou Hou’s nostrils.
Shou Hou narrowed his eyes and sucked gently.
In the next second, he, who was still very thin previously, immediately began to “inflate”, in the physical sense.
His muscles bulged, and his height also increased from 1.6 meters to 1.8 meters.
Roar ~
Looking at the red-muscled man who had turned from Shou Hou in front of him, he punched a hole in his wooden coffee table and Xing Rong immediately froze in his seat.
“This… this…”
After the man in a suit beside Shou Hou put away the small bottle again, he looked at Xing Rong and smiled.
“You’re honored.”
“As the first person to see the new generation of polluters, I think even if you die, you will die with honor.
Xing Rong was not interested in this so-called honor at all.
Seeing his former good friend become like this, he thought that his good friend had been forced.
In the end…
“Give me the address!”
Hearing Shou Hou’s angry roar, the last bit of hope in Xing Rong’s heart was gone.
His good friend really wanted to kill him.
Just as he was about to activate his ability, Xing Rong’s collar was grabbed by the red-muscled man.
Then, another large hand grabbed his neck tightly.
The suffocating feeling quickly made Xing Rong’s face begin to fill with blood.
His hands pounded weakly on Skinny Monkey’s shoulders, but it was useless.
It was not even a scratch.
Just as Xing Rong felt that he was doomed and wanted to look at the spirit girl again…
He suddenly realized that the ghost girl, who had just been on the sofa, had appeared beside Shou Hou.
Moreover, a long sword appeared in his hand.
“Slash!”
Xing Rong watched as the ghost girl’s longsword, which was also in a ghost state, pierced through Shou Hou’s head.
In the next second, Xing Rong felt the pincer-like hands on his neck immediately lose their strength.
Dong ~
The skinny monkey fell to the ground limply.
As for the ghost girl, she “walked” to Shou Hou’s side, closed her eyes, and made a breathing gesture.
After about ten seconds, the spirit girl opened her eyes.
This sudden change frightened the man in the suit.
He, who had victory in his grasp, did not understand. Xing Rong was clearly about to be strangled to death, so why did Shou Hou collapse just like that?
Looking at Xing Rong, who looked at him after taking a few breaths, the man in the suit ran.
He was just an ordinary person who worked for the polluter.
“Wait a minute…”
The man in a suit, who had already opened the door, sneered when he heard that Xing Rong did not chase after him.
Did this idiot just tell him to wait?
However, just as this thought rose in his mind and he was still smiling, in the next second—
Plop ~
The man in the suit directly fell to the ground like Shou Hou.
With a smile, he looked at Nethery, who was holding the longsword and beginning to suck “things” with her eyes closed again. He sighed helplessly.
“Sigh, I still want to ask him…”
He did not ask the man in the suit to wait just now. He was talking to the ghost.
After absorbing the “thing”, the ghost girl floated back to Xing Rong’s side.
Looking at the helpless Xing Rong, the girl took the initiative to speak.
“They killed it. There’s something. I can eat it.”
Xing Rong was speechless.
Hearing this, the expression on his face directly changed from helplessness to fear.
Good lord!
After all this time, if she did not eat crystal cores, she would eat people?!
Fortunately, when he found out that Nethery could eat other things besides crystal cores, he was still happy.
In the end, it was actually such “good news”…
However, if Nethery did not “eat people”, he would most likely have died at Shou Hou’s hands today.
“Sigh ~”
Xing Rong looked at the corpses in the living room and at the door. He could only be glad that Nethery was not the kind of person who ate people alive.
Otherwise, Xing Rong could not guarantee that he would still have the courage to continue raising it.
After struggling to move the two corpses to his room and hide them, Xing Rong was about to ask the ghost girl what was wrong with the sword when he heard a knock on the door.
The sudden knock on the door made him jump.
The spirit girl immediately floated towards the door with her sword.
Seeing this, Xing Rong hurriedly asked loudly,
“Who is it?”
“Hello, your takeaway!”
When Xing Rong heard this, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
After taking a look through the peephole and confirming that it was indeed not fishing, Xing Rong opened the door and took the takeout.
After watching his peers leave, Xing Rong took the takeout and sat back on the sofa.
Looking at the spirit girl hugging a sword at the side, Xing Rong carefully asked,
“Nethery, your sword…”
“Memories. Recalls. Some.”
“Weapons.”
Although he was hesitating, Xing Rong still understood.
Just now, Nethery recalled some things from before, such as this weapon.
Thinking of this, Xing Rong was relieved.
However, he then became worried.
How could he find that shop owner?
Now, Xing Rong had more and more questions for him.
