C97 (1/2)

Maybe it was because Captain Hu drank a little too much, he didn't notice the paper that flashed past in his pocket, or maybe he did it on purpose. After happily paying the money, he casually stuffed the paper into his pocket, then picked up my shoulder and left the restaurant with me.

At this moment, I felt an extraordinary suppression in my heart, my mind couldn't stop thinking back to the ”eyes of the heaven” that were like the ”Death God Killing Talisman”. I didn't know when I came to his place, nor did I know if the Captain Hu knew about this, but from my senses, I believed that he did.

This was because, to me, all of a sudden, Captain Hu's emotions would be so excited, and that ”It's okay, that damn thing won't find me anymore”. This kind of unintentional action seemed to reveal a message from behind.

That was, the Captain Hu knew that he was entangled by that thing.

But why didn't he tell me? Or perhaps, he felt that this was not the time to speak?

I raised my head and stared straight at Captain Hu, staring straight at his nose. After confirming that there was no black mist flowing out, I finally felt a bit more at ease. At least, based on the current situation, the so called ”Heavenly Kingdom's Eye” doesn't have an effect.

But what could An Xin do? Didn't that thing have to flare up in the end?

The strangest thing about this thing was that it was ”keep a high profile and keep a low profile”, making people unable to defend against it, just like Huang Fangfang's mother before. If not for Qiyou, Huang Fangfang would probably already be crying while hugging her mother's body.

All of a sudden, I felt really depressed. Even though I could feel that Captain Hu was struggling to hold on under this life-threatening pressure, looking at that seemingly carefree smile of his, no matter how I looked at it, I felt pain all over my body.

At the same time, an irrepressible rage started burning in his chest.

The mastermind was really too evil, how could he make a move on these innocent and unarmed ordinary people and good people? There were so many villains in this world, why didn't he kill them?

I feel angry, and at the same time, I feel that it's unfair!

I opened my mouth, wanting to directly clarify this matter with Captain Hu, but when the words reached the tip of my tongue, I dispelled this thought, afraid that Captain Hu wouldn't know about this matter. Would it make him feel more pressured if I said so?

I am very clear on the feeling people have when faced with death threats. I have also felt it several times after I became a Soul Painter, and it was also because of this that I did not want my Captain Hu to suffer too.

But, thinking about it, what if Captain Hu knew about this? Would it be cruel of me to leave him alone? Moreover, if I made this clear earlier, wouldn't I be able to prevent it first?

Along the way, I didn't utter a single word. My heart was tangled up to the extreme, feeling that such a simple matter was like an insurmountable mountain blocking in front of me.

On the way there, he became extremely excited, and loudly told me about all kinds of incidents that happened during his career as a police officer. He also told me about all kinds of strange and interesting things he had encountered, as if he was a big kid, with a face full of pride and happiness.

However, the more I looked at his expression, the more it seemed like he was deliberately concealing it. At the same time, the discomfort in my heart grew.

I don't want such a good cop to get hurt.

Furthermore, he is also my Brother Hu!

I gritted my teeth and finally made up my mind. I interrupted him and asked very seriously, ”Captain Hu, tell the truth. Are you hiding something from me?”

When I said those words, I was extremely perturbed, afraid that I would anger this Northeast guy. However, now that my life is in danger, I couldn't care less.

As expected, after hearing my words, Squad Hu's expression froze. With a wave of his hand, he slapped the back of my head in dissatisfaction. ”What are you talking about? Where are you going? How could I possibly hide it from you?”
