"This is…I see…Is this the reason why your strength has increased so much recently…"
The store manager revealed a surprised expression, then beckoned Xia Qing to sit down and continued.
"Jinmu, don't tell me you…are in love?”
In this world, the only known way to make a species have multiple Hezi at the same time was to achieve the goal through sharing, so it was no wonder that the manager had such doubts.
"No, it's not like that."
Xia Qing retracted her Hezi and only revealed her Shura Eye. Her blood-red pupils had a black jade hook spinning in them, which was especially eye-catching.
" Including this pair of eyes, they all suddenly appeared recently, and every time I use them, there will be a feeling of hatred lingering in my mind. When they first appeared a few days ago, I lost control…At that time, the Dark Wings that destroyed the CCG branch in the 10th-7th district was me.”
The store manager frowned when he saw those eyes. He stroked the stubble on his chin and fell into deep thought. In the end, he could only helplessly say to Xia Qing.
" I'm sorry, Jinmu…This is beyond my knowledge…I don't know how to help you…"
Even at this moment, Xia Qing told the manager about her trip to the 17th district, but the manager still only apologized for not being able to help him. This made Xia Qing's mood a little complicated... this feeling of being trusted...
"It's okay, manager. I can control my ability now. You don't have to worry.”
"Is that so…That's good."
Hearing Xia Qing's answer, the manager's guilty expression immediately relaxed. Then, he sighed and said to Xia Qing hesitantly," Actually…I've always treated you like a daughter…"
"…Huh?" Xia Qing quickly looked down at her own attire, wondering where she had the shadow of a woman on her body…
" No... I'm saying this because you're the same as my daughter. You're a one-eyed bastard..." The store manager smiled and then said with a complicated expression.
"Jinmu, what kind of child do you think will be born after a human and a hybrid?”
" You mean..." Xia Qing, who had already guessed the identity of the person the manager was talking to, pretended not to know.
"Yes, that's right! The child that my wife and I gave birth to is a one-eyed monster.”
After a long time, the store manager had already told him most of the things besides The Clown and the V Organization, including how the store manager's wife, Yuna, had gotten pregnant with him after learning that the store manager was an illegitimate child, and how she had eaten human flesh to give birth to this miraculous child.
"I'm sorry…Jinmu, I've told you so much. It's all old news…"
"Ah, no…it's okay, manager.”
Xia Qing waved her hand and stood up.
"Oh right, Jinmu, what do you plan to do next?”
Xia Qing walked towards the door.
"There are some things that I need to investigate. I don't think the organ transplant was just an accident. Also…there's The Clown and the V Organization.”
With that, Xia Qing left the room.
Xia Qing's words echoed in the ears of the store manager who was sitting on the chair. He slowly opened his eyes and muttered in a self-deprecating manner.
"So you already knew…"
After walking out of the room, Xia Qing did not leave immediately. Instead, she stood at the door for a while. When she heard the words inside, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and then she walked upstairs.
……
……
Xia Qing strolled along the corridor. What he had said to the manager was just an excuse to cover up, but it did contain many facts. What he knew now was only what he had learned from watching anime and later on the Internet. In other words, his various actions had seriously affected the future of the plot.
However, he didn't think that there was anything wrong with it. This was the way it should be. In the past, Jinmu didn't know what would happen in the future, so he had always been passive. However, what existed in this world now was the reborn Jinmu. It was a brand new Jinmu that knew what would happen in the near future.
The future direction of the story would be determined by Xia Qing's own will. He would never let the tragedy in the original novel repeat itself.
While Xia Qing was thinking about these things, she had unknowingly arrived in front of Dong Xiang's room.
He knocked on the door and Dong Xiang's voice came from inside.
"The door isn't locked. Come in yourself."
Tsk, tsk, tsk…I seem to have heard this line somewhere before…This kind of scene often appears in television dramas. Could it be…
"Then I'm coming."
Thinking of this, Xia Qing suddenly felt that she could not miss this opportunity. She entered the room impatiently and closed the door. She changed into slippers at the entrance and walked into the house.
Dong Xiang had already changed into her usual casual clothes and was sitting on the sofa watching TV.
When he heard Xia Qing's light voice, the hand holding the remote control could not help but float.
"Eh…why did your tone suddenly become so mushy…so disgusting!”
“……”
TV dramas are all lies…I won't watch them anymore…
Xia Qing did not care about Dong Xiang's disdain. She walked straight to the sofa and sat beside Dong Xiang.
At this moment, Dong Xiang, who was sitting next to Xia Qing, realized that she could no longer focus on the television. She felt restless and the soft sofa below made her feel like she was sitting on pins and needles.
At this moment, Dong Xiang suddenly remembered something that she had not asked about before.
"Right! Jinmu, you still haven't told me why your strength has increased so quickly recently?”
" Well…of course, it's because I miss Dong Xiang-chan every time I cultivate. That's why I'm working so hard to become stronger."
Xia Qing giggled in a frivolous tone.
"Tell me the truth."
Unfortunately, Dong Xiang, who was staring at him quietly, did not smile at all. She only looked at her expressionlessly and said softly.
Xia Qing understood that she couldn't get away with it no matter what, so she simply explained what she had said to the store manager to Dong Xiang again.
After a long time, the young lady who had changed her sitting posture to sitting cross-legged on the sofa finally gasped when she saw Xia Qing's right hand directly transform into a huge sword blade. Although she also felt that this kind of thing was inconceivable, an ordinary human who had been transplanted with an organ and became a one-eyed monster actually possessed four kinds of scorpion and two other strange abilities that far exceeded her understanding in just a few months.
" This is really…" Dong Xiang's mouth was wide open as she fell into a state of shock. Then, her eyes gradually lit up as she spoke excitedly to Xia Qing.
"This is great!"
"Huh?"
