Chapter 16 Xia Youran is dead again
Wang Dong pursed his lips and lowered his voice:
"On the surface, it seems to have stopped, but I heard from people that he's still secretly selling it, just much more discreetly than before."
Zhang Lingyun nodded.
He didn't take it to heart, because he felt it had nothing to do with him.
When the school bell rings.
Zhang Lingyun packed her schoolbag and got up to walk towards the second-year classroom.
Zhang Lingyun's plan for today was still to go to the Golden Rose Hall to talk to Bai Lu about potions again.
But the weather is particularly bad today, especially in the shopping street by the sea.
The sea fog was so thick it resembled a heavy white veil, completely enveloping the entire street and reducing visibility to less than two meters.
The damp sea breeze howled through the streets, whipping up pebbles and fallen leaves that clattered against the walls.
There were very few pedestrians on the shopping street, and most of the shops along the street were closed, with only a few having dim lights on.
The entire neighborhood was eerily quiet; when Zhang Lingyun walked into the street, it felt like he had entered Silent Hill.
He and Xia Youran walked slowly along the street, but soon lost their bearings.
Just as the two were wandering around aimlessly, Zhang Lingyun suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure flashing by in the fog not far away.
—Is that Liu Yang?
Liu Yang, with his head down, sneaked into a narrow alley.
Zhang Lingyun felt a surge of curiosity and gestured for Xia Youran to remain quiet.
Then, the two of them quietly followed.
The two walked along the alley for a short while and came to an abandoned dock.
In the fog.
Liu Yang was meeting up with a group of unfamiliar men, discussing something in a secretive manner.
Immediately afterwards, a deep voice rang out.
It sounded like someone was lecturing them, and the content vaguely concerned the sale of the "angel drug":
"Although the 'Angel Drug' is listed as a prohibited item, this is precisely our opportunity. The trade will be more clandestine, but the price will multiply several times over, allowing you to make significantly more money!"
The voice was hoarse yet authoritative, echoing through the empty dock.
Zhang Lingyun hid behind a corner not far away, squinting as he tried to see who was speaking.
But he could only hear the voice; he could never find the person.
After a long while, he finally followed Liu Yang's gaze and saw the "person" who had spoken.
Zhang Lingyun was stunned.
Because the one who was reprimanding them was actually a crow.
This crow had a rough, deep voice, and its words were full of human logic.
Zhang Lingyun lowered his voice and asked Xia Youran beside him with a puzzled look:
"What on earth is this thing?"
Xia Youran also hid around the corner, her eyes fixed on the crow.
She explained softly:
"It could be someone from the [Transformation School] who has transformed into the shape of a raven; or it could be someone from the [Enchantment School] who is controlling this raven from a distance."
Zhang Lingyun nodded, indicating that he roughly understood.
But in his heart, he thought that no matter what the situation, this crow must be the boss of the [Angel Medicine].
If we report this trafficking ring, I wonder how much reward we could get.
But in the instant he was distracted, the crow suddenly raised its head.
Crimson eyes pierced through the thick fog, projecting precisely in their direction.
It cackled twice and shouted sternly in a middle-aged man's voice:
"Someone's eavesdropping! Catch them!"
The group of drug dealers, including Liu Yang, all turned around instantly, their eyes fixed on what was behind the corner.
Then, they lunged at the two men menacingly.
Zhang Lingyun's heart tightened, and he quickly pulled Xia Youran up and turned to run into the thick fog.
Although he had already mastered the first level of [Lightning Arrow], he hadn't become so arrogant as to think he was invincible.
The two ran frantically through the thick fog for a while, when they accidentally bumped into someone.
Zhang Lingyun looked up and saw a strange man standing in front of him.
He was dressed in a well-tailored tuxedo and carrying a small black violin case, looking like a musician on his way to work.
But his condition was extremely poor.
His face was as pale as paper, without a trace of color, and his eye bags were as deep as a panda's.
His eyes were bloodshot, his hair was disheveled and stuck to his forehead, and his tall, thin figure swayed constantly.
He gave the impression of being terminally ill and on the verge of collapse.
The man, though hit, seemed oblivious to it.
Just then, the crows and the group of drug dealers caught up and surrounded Zhang Lingyun and his companion.
The musician seemed not to see anything, slowly opened the violin case, and took out a black violin.
He began to play a tune in the thick fog without saying a word.
Everyone was puzzled, their eyes darting back and forth between the musician and Zhang Lingyun.
But the crow quickly looked away and decided to deal with Zhang Lingyun first.
The current scene is extremely eerie:
Thick sea fog enveloped the abandoned dock, and the roar of the waves could be heard in the distance.
A sickly musician quietly played his violin, the melodious music echoing in the mist.
A crow led a group of menacing drug dealers and cornered the two high school students.
Liu Yang rushed to the front, his face full of a ferocious smile.
A coward like him loves nothing more than bullying the weak with numbers.
With so many people backing him up, he was certain that Zhang Lingyun was doomed.
Looking at Xia Youran beside him, a greedy glint appeared in his eyes again.
It's a pity that such a beautiful young lady can't stay.
But before killing her, you should enjoy yourself first.
But just as Liu Yang was licking his lips and reaching out to touch Xia Youran.
The melodious violin music suddenly became urgent, clearly reaching everyone's ears.
The next second, something shocking happened.
The last drug dealer's head suddenly exploded like fireworks with a "bang".
This wasn't some kind of metaphor; it really exploded into a dazzling firework display, with ribbons and sparks scattering into the thick fog.
Immediately afterwards, screams rang out one after another.
The heads of the drug dealers exploded one after another, each turning into colorful fireworks, a scene both dazzling and terrifying.
Liu Yang was so frightened that he covered his head and lay prone on the ground.
He kowtowed and cried out:
"Stop pulling! Please stop pulling!"
But the musician paid no heed and continued playing his violin with undivided attention.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Yang's head exploded into a firework in front of Zhang Lingyun's eyes with a "bang".
Blood and debris were splattered all over the ground.
The leader crow was so frightened that it flapped its wings and flew into the sky.
But it couldn't escape the pursuit of the music. Just as it flew into the air, it exploded with a "bang," turning into a black firework.
Only a few feathers remained, slowly drifting down into the sea mist.
Xia Youran was so frightened that she trembled all over and instinctively covered her ears.
But she had already heard the music.
The next second, her head exploded, turning into a dazzling firework.
In the end, only Zhang Lingyun was left.
Just as his head was about to explode, he suddenly heard another explosion.
"Bang!"
The next second, the light and shadow shattered, and the sound reversed.
