144 Each others secre (1/2)
In the crowd of those making their way out of school, the figures of Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin going in the opposite direction to the roof stood stark. But since everyone was in a hurry to leave school, no one paid any attention to it.
As Ren Xiaosu followed Yang Xiaojin, he realized she had a great figure, and she was tall as well.
Yang Xiaojin glanced at him when she was turning the corner at the stairs. Ren Xiaosu immediately looked away.
Upon reaching the rooftop, Yang Xiaojin pushed open the rusty metal door and walked outside. Ren Xiaosu followed and suddenly felt as though his horizons were broadened as he stood outside on the rooftop overlooking the stronghold. This was the first time he was able to do so. Although the school building wasn't that tall, it was high enough to be able to see into the distance.
At this moment, Yang Xiaojin threw something at Ren Xiaosu. It was the dagger she had stolen from Ren Xiaosu.
”We're even now.” Yang Xiaojin sounded very calm. She did not explain why she had taken back the dagger, nor did Ren Xiaosu ask about it.
The two of them stood on the rooftop and were locked in a stalemate. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps came from behind where Ren Xiaosu was standing. He turned around to look and was stunned to discover two students, a male and a female, holding hands as they came up via the stairway. It looked like they were a couple?
When the couple saw there were others around, they did not seem to mind and continued heading up towards the roof. As a result, Ren Xiaosu shut the door leading to the rooftop.
The couple was dumbfounded when they saw the door get shut in their faces.
When Ren Xiaosu closed the door securely and turned back towards Yang Xiaojin, he discovered she was already pointing a small silver pistol at him.
Ren Xiaosu immediately recognized the type of gun it was—a SIG Sauer P238. This was once the most classic model of SIG Sauer and was known as the ”pretty lady” among handguns.
But Ren Xiaosu did not panic. He said, ”If we wanted to kill each other, we would've already done so. Aren't we both here because we want to reconcile?”
If Yang Xiaojin had really intended to shoot, she wouldn't have gone through the trouble of throwing the dagger back to him. Ren Xiaosu was feeling unusually calm at this moment.
Yang Xiaojin put away her gun again and said, ”How did you manage to escape from the Qing Consortium's defense perimeter?”
”I kept running all the way out.” Ren Xiaosu played dumb.
”What happened in the Jing Mountains after we left?” Yang Xiaojin asked.
”Countless Experimentals came rushing out, and there was even a monstrous creature that appeared from the crater of the volcano.” Ren Xiaosu briefly mentioned, ”A lot of shocking incidents occurred. You can't possibly imagine how terrifying that creature in the crater was.”
”I can imagine that,” Yang Xiaojin corrected him.
Her answer stunned Ren Xiaosu, Yang Xiaojin sounded very firm. Could Yang Xiaojin also have seen something the size of that creature before?
Ren Xiaosu asked, ”Are you worried that I'll squeal on you to the Qing Consortium?”
”I'm not afraid of that now.” Yang Xiaojin said, ”Because you also have a secret you're afraid the Qing Consortium will find out about.”
”What secret?” Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt as though something was off, and he had missed out on some details!
Yang Xiaojin started smiling. There was even a hint of arrogance to it. ”When Luo Xinyu and I went back the way we took to the Jing Mountains, we discovered the wolf pack had been waiting at the mouth of the canyon all along. If it weren't for Luo Xinyu's ability to jump through the shadows, we would probably have had to take a detour to get around them. But calculating the time you took to get back, you must've already reached the town before Stronghold 113 was destroyed. First, you couldn't have run that quickly if you were just a normal person with greater strength. Second, if you were really a normal person, you couldn't have gotten past the wolf pack for sure.”
