Chapter 54: Calm

Ye Xiaojing is 21 years old this year, in her prime.

She has long hair down to her waist, and when she is not moving, she is a pretty and beautiful girl with an English style.

Because of her long-term practice of martial arts, her body is upright and tight, her limbs are white, and her muscle lines are well-proportioned and beautiful.

However, at this moment, her abdomen in the mirror is slightly bulging, forming a visible semi-arc, like a woman entering pregnancy.

Ye Xiaojing looked at herself in the mirror expressionlessly, as if she was completely unaware of this abrupt phenomenon.

She stroked her abdomen with her hand, bathed and changed clothes as usual, and took two hours to bathe.

Two hours later, Ye Xiaojing walked out of the bathroom and went to the bedroom to change clothes, cleverly concealing the changes in her body with loose clothes.

Then she hummed a tune and went to the kitchen, tied an apron, and started to cook noodles...

Braised eggs, ham, dried shrimps, tomatoes, green vegetables... After opening a bag of noodles and putting them in the pot, she thought about it and opened another bag.

Although she had eaten several barbecued pork buns before, she was still very hungry.

Soon, the kitchen of the apartment was filled with the aroma of noodles.

Ye Xiaojing turned off the fire, carried the noodle pot to the living room, and ate while watching TV.

Her TV screen had been broken into six parts at this time, and was playing surveillance videos at eight times the speed, monitoring the surroundings and entrances and exits of Jiang Qian's house.

When she was not with Jiang Qian, she would pay attention to his safety through these surveillance cameras hidden in Jiang Qian's life trajectory.

Once an abnormality was discovered, the mantis spread its wings and arrived at the rescue in an instant.

After all, this apartment was only separated from Jiang Qian's community by a street.

Ye Xiaojing finished the noodles in the pot, wiped her crystal lips briefly, and went to the kitchen again - the lamb chops taken out of the refrigerator before taking a bath had been thawed.

...

Jiang Qian took a bath and returned to the room. The bruises on his face had subsided by half.

Since coming out of the safe house, Ye Xiaojing has become more cautious in his attacks on him, and he will not really let him get so embarrassed that he cannot leave the house.

"What did I say wrong? She has indeed gained weight, and her movements have also started to be more relaxed." Jiang Qian felt that he was beaten for no reason today.

She was more relaxed...

Is she obsessed with my handsome appearance and can't bear to kill me?

Jiang Qian thought self-deprecatingly.

He opened the drawer and took out the little devil suit that had been in the state of guarding the house, and opened it.

He had an important mission tomorrow, and he couldn't go out with only a life-saving talisman. After thinking about it, he stuffed the Desire Demon clone in his pocket back, and took out the Wrath Demon clone, the Evil Demon clone, and the Love Demon clone, ready to take these three out to have some fun and see the world.

Why do you say that?

Because Jiang Qian found that every time he fought and chatted with the demon clones in the private gym of Wanzhong Group, he found that these guys were full of curiosity and yearning for the real world. Every time they finished, they tried to please him and hoped to be taken out to play again next time.

Just like the concubines who asked the emperor to turn over the cards, it was interesting.

"Ah~ When can you take me out for a walk, master? Hehehe..." The happy demon clone flew around Jiang Qian.

"Don't make a fuss, the master naturally has his considerations when deciding who to take out, and we who make props naturally have to obey the master's orders." The love demon clone crawled out from under Jiang Qian's bed, with vines all over the room, and had the virtuous style of a mistress of a family.

But Jiang Qian was completely unmoved. He didn't forget how this guy stabbed himself to death in the copy because of love and hatred.

"Don't worry, one day it will be your turn."

Jiang Qian perfunctorily said and started the next preparation step.

He took out three practical props awarded by the company from the virtual cabinet of the super-species world: a set of bows and arrows (including quivers), a rattan lock, and a simple invisible tent.

[Name: Bows and arrows and quivers]

[Type: Sports equipment]

[Function: Hunting]

[Introduction: Cursed bows and arrows, this bow is easily infected by emotions, excessive fear will reduce its accuracy and attack power, on the contrary, it will hit the target every time; the arrows in the quivers will never be exhausted unless the hunter is scared. ]

[Usage: Shoot and it's over. ]

[Note: The law of the jungle is everywhere, and the truth is within the range of the bow and arrow. ]

This is a weapon that suits Jiang Qian's condition, and he is very satisfied.

[Name: Rattan lock]

[Type: Daily necessities]

[Function: Binding, connection]

[Introduction: Picked from the primeval forest of Changbai Mountain, carved and forged by a master craftsman, it has become a small object of interest that can easily connect and lock any two living beings. 】

【Usage: Live knot, same effect as ordinary rattan; Dead knot, can only be unlocked by cutting the rattan or one of the locked life forms dies. 】

【Note: One little romantic suicide a day. 】

The reason why I chose this item is... there is no choice.

Jiang Qian can't imagine where it can be used for the time being.

But the last item, the simple invisible tent, is a good thing!

【Name: Simple invisible tent】

【Type: Sports equipment】

【Function: Hide】

【Introduction: A private item of a senior social phobic. It perfectly integrates the social phobia attribute, and uses its own nothingness to resist the attention and disturbance of others, as if it does not exist. Therefore, anything hidden in it will also cover up all traces. 】

【Usage: Stand up and walk in. 】

【Note: How does it feel to be ignored? 】

The excellence of this prop is that it is a prop that can be used at any time in real scenes, creating a private space anytime and anywhere, whether it is resting, thinking, brushing... There is no need to consider being disturbed.

In the scene of the super-species world, the function is even greater: avoiding enemies, healing and resting, ambushing and sneaking, etc., with a wide range of uses.

Although the three props are not as tricky as the exploration notes, and the quality is not as weird and powerful as the little devil suit, they are rich and practical.

Now Jiang Qian's ability + props, attack, defense, concealment, sneak attack, and underhanded tricks are all complete.

Then Jiang Qian immediately realized a problem: the storage space is a bit tight.

Currently, the virtual cabinet has a total of 6 slots, which were originally placed with: Exploration Notes, Little Devil Set, Super Crystal*10, "Whisper of the Heart" Back-up Summon*1, occupying a total of 4 slots, and 2 slots are empty.

Since the Little Devil Set is placed at home to protect the house, there is just one more slot, which can be stuffed into the three new props.

Fully loaded...

The three black porcelain figurines that were brought out separately are placed in the clothes and do not take up space for the time being.

Maybe the level is too low, and the storage space will soon not be able to accommodate my strength... Jiang Qian rationally self-evaluated.

I don’t know if the next copy can be upgraded. It is said that the experience value of the multiplayer copy can be doubled. I currently have 35% experience of the first state·cognitive body. If I am lucky enough to double it, I will most likely be promoted to the second state·heterogeneous body. My desire for toxins will be even more exaggerated by then. Sure enough, I will buy a poisonous snake as soon as I come back from this mission...

In multiplayer dungeons, you have to find a way to pass the level and guard against sneak attacks from mutants. There may be traitors in the team. At that time, the exploration notes will be an effective way to understand strangers.

While thinking, Jiang Qian packed his backpack for tomorrow's trip.

Everything is ready.

At this time, the phone rang. It was the Bear Team who sent the address for tomorrow's meeting.

Jiang Qian took a look and then deleted the message.

"I hope everything goes well."

Before leaving, I left a note for my sister, which reminded me to feed the pet.

After doing these, Jiang Qian fell asleep peacefully.

...

The next day, the weather turned from sunny to cloudy.

Jiang Qian got up early and came to Jinping West Station at the agreed time. He met with the plainclothes Bear Team and his team at the agreed location.

Team Xiong was still as mellow and friendly as ever, and greeted Jiang Qian with a pleasant face:

"Good morning, wait a moment, the team of colleagues in charge of monitoring the target has not sent any message yet."

"Understood." Jiang Qian nodded.

Waiting patiently in this simple waiting room with Team Xiong and others.

It turned out that the escort personnel came from two teams, and they were very rigorous. After all, he was the only survivor of the metamorphosis, and the escort object carrying important clues... Jiang Qian silently digested the current situation.

People were coming and going outside the waiting room, and everything was calm.

...

PS:
