Blood splattered on his face.
Even with my eyes closed, I could see a dark red color through my eyelids. It wasn't just blood, there was also a thicker solid mass stained on his face. Because he couldn't raise his hand to touch it, he couldn't tell whether it was brains or minced meat.
However, my body didn't even feel damaged at all.
Zhou Yu opened his eyes and looked to the side. Just now, he seemed to hear a loud noise like an artillery shelling in the distance. Although he didn't know what it was, it was a sound far away, so he didn't pay too much attention to it. It wasn't until I saw Ferris' appearance that I suddenly woke up.
Motian, who was holding the knife, had completely disappeared from his head from his lips up. The exposed lower part of the mouth seems to be sticking out the tongue out of surprise.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Yu's first emotion was surprise. He had never really come into contact with firearms, and the impression in his mind of being shot was still that of a small hole in his body.
In other words, he never thought that sniper equipment could destroy the human body in this way.
Ferris's "corpse" was swaying, and even though it had no eyes, it still raised the knife and stabbed it casually. Just before he was about to hit Zhou Yu in the face, a pair of hands dragged Zhou Yu up from the ground.
"Tiger" hugged Zhou Yu silently and signaled him to be silent with his eyes. This strong man, who had surrendered to Ferris a minute ago, now walked around Ferris's headless body as if nothing had happened and quietly retreated towards the street behind him. During this period, he seemed to want to carry Zhou Yu on his shoulders again, but he was worried about the gunshot wound in Zhou Yu's abdomen, so he still adopted a more strenuous holding position in the end.
After retreating a few dozen steps, Ferris's head had obviously grown back a bit. From the basically complete mouth, vague roars and calls began to come out. Hearing the voice of Ferris, "Tiger" turned around without hesitation and ran towards the distant street.
"What on earth are you..."
After he ran a few hundred meters, Zhou Yu finally regained his strength and asked a question in a small voice.
"Go back and explain."
"Tiger" replied as he ran furiously. His voice sounded very different from before. It's not a dull puppet-like tone, but a voice that makes people feel decisive and confident, which completely matches his own image. Whether it was an illusion or not, Zhou Yu even heard a hint of joy in his voice. It was unmistakable. This guy was extremely satisfied with what his former boss had just experienced, and he almost laughed out loud.
Zhou Yu, who was completely confused by this situation, had no choice but to close his eyes again, recuperating while reviewing many previous details in his mind.
Regardless of the purpose of "Tiger's" actions, there is only one thing he can be sure of, that is, this person has other accomplices - the roar of the sniper rifle just now was at least five hundred meters away from them, and it was definitely not Posted by "Tiger". The ability to coordinate actions just right is enough to show that the "tiger" and the sniper have some kind of connection.
After running for about ten minutes, Tiger put him in the back seat of a van. While checking the gunshot wound in his abdomen, he asked, "Are you still conscious now?"
Without much energy to speak, Zhou Yu just nodded.
"Tiger" actually laughed happily. He grinned and said, "Your bodies are really weird."
After saying this, he took out the medical kit from under the seat, used scissors to remove the clothes stuck around the injured area, cleaned and disinfected the wound, and then sprayed hemostatic agent. The entire movement took less than five minutes to complete, and it can be said to be as smooth as a cloud.
"I'm happy to help you take out the bullet, but there are no suitable conditions now, so you have to be patient for a while. Before that, don't try to use your ability to repair the wound."
Zhou Yu still nodded to show that he understood what he meant.
After receiving the response, "Tiger" exited the rear compartment and came to the driver's seat to start the car. Through the water-stained window, Zhou Yu saw that they seemed to be driving out of a certain alley. After the lights dimmed several times, faint human voices could be heard from around.
Hearing the laughter of a child coming from the window, Zhou Yu felt as if he was in another world. I don’t know how much time passed before the van entered another dark alley.
"Tiger" took him out of the car and walked into the back door of a building. It appears to be a low-rise building with only three or four floors. There are several different restaurant signs hanging on the ground floor. After climbing to the third floor from the emergency passage, "Tiger" took him into a store that looked like a cafe.
The area of the store is not large, estimated to be 100 to 150 square meters, but because there are not many tables, it looks unusually empty. The surrounding walls are covered with origami red roses and brass bullet casings, as well as a poster of a foreign band. In the center of the store, several square tables were put together and covered with thick white cloth, looking like a crude temporary operating table. A girl stood by the window behind the stage, seemingly overlooking the street outside.
When Tiger put Zhou Yu on the table in the center of the store, the girl by the window said, "You're a little slow."
"I'm bringing one more person, boss."
"How is he doing?"
"The weather is as good as today. It's not sunny, but no one will die."
The girl turned and looked at "Tiger". The distance between her eyes is long and slightly unfocused, but her eyes are bright and lively. Thick eyebrows, a high and wide forehead, and thin lips are not outstanding looks in terms of traditional aesthetics, but the combination gives the girl a unique charm. It's slightly neutral, but it won't confuse others. Instead, it makes her give a reliable impression. This must be an easy material for portrait painters to be interested in.
But Zhou Yu had no interest in studying physiognomy. The moment he saw the girl, all his attention was focused on her clothes.
The girl was wearing a dark red woolen trench coat, with a red hood hanging on the back of the coat's neck.
People suspected of being dead souls stood under the lamp. Her feet in black boots stepped firmly on the floor, and her shadow hung on the wall by the window, well connected with her.
"I guess you have a lot of questions now, Zhou Yu. I promise I will answer them one by one in the future, but it's a long story. Before that, you have to undergo surgery to remove the bullet. I'm not sure the anesthetic will work on you. , so you’d better be mentally prepared.”
Her well-spoken Mandarin sounded surprisingly familiar to Zhou Yu. Not only that, when she pronounced the word "Zhou Yu", her tone was flawless.
It was definitely not confusion caused by the proximity of the sound, she knew exactly who she was talking to. Of all the accidents that night, perhaps none surprised him more.
"I'm afraid you don't remember, but this is our second meeting, Zhou Yu. We met once at your father's academic lecture six years ago. At that time, I was considering applying for your father to be my mentor. He was in I accidentally talked about you. However, even though you were present at the time, you did not say hello to your father once, but left directly with your female companion, so I guess you have no impression of me. "
The girl stepped forward and stated in a calm voice. She took out the injection and scalpel from under the table, then put on blue rubber gloves.
"I never expected to meet so many old friends in a place like this. Although through this period of observation, I am sure that you have lost a lot of memory. In any case, I am very happy to have found a reliable ally."
Zhou Yu stared at her face intently. Although he had no impression of her words, he couldn't help but feel kind to this girl. That might be because of the recording.
"You and Zhou Yu..."
"Before several changes occurred, we maintained a close cooperative relationship. I have sufficient evidence to show you this matter, but this will have to wait until you recover. Sir, you have experienced enough tonight."
Before taking the anesthetic, the girl looked out the window thoughtfully.
"We won't talk about this now - we won't talk about this at night. You might as well rest until daytime. Finally, I will just make a brief introduction, Mr. Zhou Yu, my name is Li Li."
