Chapter 878 Assassin in the Shadow

Although "Gun" was excited to go out for a walk, to be honest, there really wasn't much to do in the southern suburbs at this time. Originally, this was a remote suburb with a sparse population, but now it's time for the province to cool down. More than half of the population in the southern suburbs is made up of elderly men and women. At this time, there aren't many people walking on the streets despite the cold wind. Hao Ren led the cat girl around the slightly deserted streets, meeting almost no one along the way. This was a good thing for him: at least he didn't have to worry about this stupid cat suddenly running to scratch someone's trouser legs. A lot of trouble is coming.

But although Hao Ren didn't see a few acquaintances, "Gun" saw a lot of them - all the wild cats in the area. Just like Lily had her own Wang Zhi army, Hao Ren saw that the power under this cat's hands was not much smaller...

In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Hao Ren deliberately walked in inaccessible places, and the surrounding scene became increasingly desolate. If he was leading a normal girl out, he definitely shouldn't be like this, but "Go" is a cat demon, and this guy doesn't care where he wants to go. In fact, it's just right to go for a walk in all kinds of weird and deserted streets. Cat girl's feelings. She ran around Hao Ren energetically. As long as Hao Ren was slightly distracted, she would immediately run to places where she was usually not allowed to run around, such as walls and trees, and then she would be caught by Hao Ren within a few seconds. Ren yelled: It was as if he deliberately acted disobediently to attract attention.

Unknowingly, they came to a place far away from the last residential area. All the houses here were extremely dilapidated. There were no buildings with more than two stories on both sides of the road. Everything they saw were bricks built thirty or forty years ago. There are stone bungalows, and several larger houses can be seen in front of the road. On the mottled and peeling walls, you can still vaguely see words such as "xx Grain Station" and "xx Wholesale Department", which have almost faded into shape. .

This is a completely abandoned urban area, the oldest street in the southern suburbs. Time seems to have stopped here, and everything has an atmosphere that only existed decades ago. After the last few families moved out of the nearby bungalows ten years ago, the street became completely deserted and remains deserted to this day. It is said that the reconstruction project of this urban area has been planned, but like the entire southern suburbs, time is a slow thing here, and it is difficult to say when someone will renovate the dilapidated brick buildings here.

Hao Ren even remembered that what he saw when he came here to play here when he was very young was the scene in front of him. Although there were still a few families living on the west side of the street at that time, the dilapidated appearance of the street was almost the same as the completely deserted situation now. No difference.

The scene on the street reminded him of many things from his childhood. Hao Ren sighed a little in his heart. Then he looked up at the old poplar tree with all its dead leaves beside the road. Although his body was not afraid of the cold, he still rubbed his hands subconsciously: "The weather is really getting colder."

Cat Girl took advantage of Hao Ren's distraction and ran to the low wall next to her. In a few moments, she climbed along the wall to the roof of a nearby house. She looked around intelligently, and then quickly locked her target: a fat pigeon parked on the roof not far away.

"Go" rubbed her hands happily, and suddenly she felt that the meaning of her life had returned to her. She arched her body and walked cautiously along the ridge of the roof with cat steps, preparing to give herself an extra meal. However, this idiot But she forgot one thing: Hao Ren forcibly tied her tail inside her clothes when she went out. So the cat girl felt her body sway as soon as she took a few steps forward. She subconsciously wanted to raise her tail to regain her balance, but the next second she fell headlong down from the ridge of the roof. This old house, which had been in disrepair for a long time, could not withstand her efforts, so she only heard the sound of shattering tiles, and a hole was directly broken in the roof. "Roll" was stunned for a moment at first, and then immediately started to flutter around in a hurry, but it still fell from the hole unstoppably.

Hao Ren was busy lamenting the passage of time. When he didn't pay attention, he noticed that the stupid cat beside him was missing. Then he heard the big noise caused by the cat. He looked around and saw "Gun" falling into the big hole, and before he could react, the cat was gone.

Two seconds later, he heard the cat girl's panicked meow coming from a nearby house.

"This idiot!" Hao Ren smacked his lips and quickly ran towards the abandoned house. He knew that all the houses here were in dilapidated condition, and "Go" might be able to collapse the houses if he was tossing around in them with his already refined physique. "Don't move around in there! I'll help you!"

Even the doors and windows of this old house that had been abandoned for many years were rotten. Hao Ren just pushed the entire door down and took it down. When he ran in, he found that everything in the abandoned house was dark. Only the big hole in the roof shone a beam of light, allowing people to see clearly the situation in the center of the house. He saw that the open space in the center of the house was covered with a mess of debris. Wa, "Gun" was getting up from it in disgrace, looking as embarrassed as if he had just been beaten by Doudou.

The cat girl immediately raised her head when she heard the movement at the door, and then pounced on me with a meow: "Big cat! I fell!"

It didn't sound awkward at all, but rather exciting: it seemed that this guy completely regarded the accident just now as something quite funny.

"How many times have I told you not to run around!" Hao Ren held down the cat girl's head that was rubbing against him, stopping this guy from trying to act coquettishly to get through. "If you keep doing this, you won't be able to get away with it." Let you go out!"

Cat Girl frowned and said plausibly: "But I never fell off when I was running on the roof before!"

Hao Ren glared: "Nonsense, how much did you weigh before? Don't even look at what you look like now! Hurry up... huh?"

Hao Ren was halfway through reprimanding the stupid cat when he suddenly felt an inexplicable chill coming from nowhere. He barely had time to think before subconsciously pushing "Go" to the side, and then suddenly jumped to the side!

However, the chill did not go away at all after he dodged. It followed his dodging movements like tarsal maggots, sticking to his skin and extending along his limbs. The next moment, Hao Ren felt that his hairs stood on end, and at the same time, the chill suddenly condensed into something like a blade and rushed towards his throat from diagonally below!

Hao Ren's muscles were tense. His eyes could have seen everything in the darkness, but this time he could not see anything at all. He could only intuitively sense that there was an extremely dangerous blade attacking him. At the last moment when the blade almost touched his skin, he twisted his body with all his strength and narrowly avoided it.

But what was avoided? Hao Ren didn't even know what he had avoided. He saw nothing. There was only the same air in front of him. From the initial chill to the "blade" at the previous moment, everything seemed to be an illusion. There was only perception but no real object. But Hao Ren was sure that he had dodged some kind of attack just now, because he saw a little silver light on his skin in the dark, which was caused by the automatic activation of the rigid shield and the collision with something.

After this dangerous assassination mistake, the chill quickly began to subside as if it suddenly appeared. However, Hao Ren knew that something "something" was still lurking around him, and it was lurking very close. The sixth sense developed in various dangerous environments was sounding the alarm. He felt a cool breath lingering under his feet like a breeze, like a cheetah lurking in the grass, waiting for its prey to relax. moment.

"Get out" jumped several times after being pushed away by Hao Ren before finally standing firm. If this stupid cat encountered a similar situation, she would definitely jump up and ask why she was pushed, but this time even she seemed to Sensing something strange in the air. The cat girl's muscles were tense, and she unconsciously turned into a posture on all fours with her back arched. Her eyes glowed slightly in the dark, and the pair of contact lens used to cover up the cat's eyes was unknown to her at some point. He took it off, and now a pair of wide-open cat eyes were staring at the one-meter-wide space next to Hao Ren in the darkness.

"Meow woo woo -" Gun made threatening sounds from his throat, showing strong hostility like a wild animal.

Hao Ren paid attention to the movement around him and asked the cat demon: "Go away, what did you see?"

"I don't know..." Gun's voice was a little confused, "I can't see it, but I can smell it and feel it. It's such a scary thing, meow..."
