Chapter 315 In short, the Zhang family!
Song Juexiao and Lu Xianqing exchanged a glance.
I opened my phone and was surprised to find that I had been given a task so quickly.
Jiang Xingni could see that, from the perspective of her superpowers, they were not on the same path.
It's unclear what tasks Song Juexiao and Lu Xianqing might be assigned, but in any case, it has nothing to do with Jiang Xingni anymore.
Jiang Xingni and Xiao Jiming had already made arrangements and confirmed that their summer internship would involve returning to their hometown to investigate whether there was anything unusual.
Originally, Song Juexiao and Lu Xianqing planned to greet their teacher, but before they could even set off, they received a message from their teacher.
Costa City—the very city they visited before, which was supposed to be the site of the zombie outbreak, but shouldn't it have been destroyed by a nuclear bomb long ago?—has shown signs of abnormality, and they need to investigate.
Even more coincidentally, everyone except Jiang Xingni and Xiao Jiming was sent to investigate, while only these two were allowed to return to their hometowns during the summer vacation because they had applied in advance.
If Jiang Xingni hadn't said before that he couldn't see his future, Song Juexiao might have simply thought that they were lucky to be able to spend their summer vacation smoothly in their hometown.
But ever since he heard what Jiang Xingni said, Song Juexiao felt that something was wrong with everything.
Song Juexiao narrowed his eyes, ignoring the barrage of messages on his phone, and stared at Jiang Xingni.
"Will you come with us?" Song Juexiao suddenly asked. "Tell the truth."
This was the first time Song Juexiao had used his special ability on Jiang Xingni after they had become familiar with each other.
Please.
Song Juexiao thought.
Tell me the truth, tell me you will join us, and that your fate will not end abruptly in your hometown.
Jiang Xingni: "I will meet you in Costa City."
She could see her own destiny extending and then converging with theirs.
It is connected to their fate, and then disconnected.
Jiang Xingni didn't let Song Juexiao's superpower control her mouth for too long, and the little girl carefully picked out the truth to tell.
Song Juexiao still trusted her superpower. Since Jiang Xingni said they could meet up, she had no doubt that Jiang Xingni would suddenly die halfway there.
Xiao Jiming walked in from outside the door after the group went to Lin Hongguang to accept the mission—Lin Hongguang sounded like an NPC with an exclamation mark above his head.
The door remained open, and Xiao Jiming did not go inside.
"Actually, I can go by myself," Xiao Jiming said.
Jiang Xingni knew roughly what he was thinking—since everything was about going to the lower city, then Xiao Jiming could go alone.
The little girl with golden eyes stared at him intently for a while: "If I don't go, I'll only die faster."
Although her popularity isn't in such a precarious state now, Jiang Xingni still wants to gain more popularity.
Perhaps once her popularity rises, she'll outlive the current editor, and when the next editor takes office a decade or so later and wants a "tool," they might revive her and bring her back into the spotlight, considering her fans haven't all died out yet.
Anyway, this kind of thing isn't unprecedented, right, Jay X.X?
"Don't worry." Jiang Xingni shrugged. "I don't foresee my fate ending in the lower city. Anyway, I'll definitely be able to resolve the problems in the lower city and then join them."
Jiang Xingni could only see that her fate was eventually linked to theirs, but she didn't know exactly where.
Xiao Jiming was half-believing and half-doubting.
In the end, he still managed to hold Jiang Xingni's hand.
He actually wanted to say something.
For example, "If you die, I will be very sad. Please don't make me sad."
Things like, I won't let you die, I want to protect you.
However, when he tried to say it, he felt that these words were perhaps too heavy for Jiang Xingni.
Put yourself in Jiang Xingni's shoes. If he were in a life-or-death situation, he would definitely feel guilty towards Jiang Xingni for saying those words.
Having failed to live up to expectations, he was forced to die.
Therefore, Xiao Jiming did not want Jiang Xingni to be troubled by these words of betrayal. In other words, it was rare for people like them to die a natural death, and countless people would die needlessly in battle.
Instead of pressuring Jiang Xingni with talk about not dying for my sake, he should do something practical and stop talking nonsense.
He flashed that familiar, hearty smile Jiang Xingni knew: "Sigh, shall we go home?"
Jiang Xing glanced at him for a while, but didn't expose Xiao Jiming's little scheme. She simply nodded.
Jiang Xingni hadn't heard the word "go home" in a long time.
They both have similar family backgrounds—whether in terms of where they were born or the fact that they don't have parents—and going back to each other's homes can truly be described as "coming home."
Even heading north, the summer temperature didn't drop much. Jiang Xingni didn't bring many clothes; she just packed a few things and boarded the high-speed train.
When they arrived in Tuhe City, the two of them realized something was wrong.
too hot.
The summers in Tuhe City are indeed hot, but it's not hot all the time. In shady places or at night, there is still a bit of coolness.
But as soon as they got off the high-speed train, they looked like they were about to be cooked.
Temperatures hotter than in the capital.
Jiang Xingni raised his head, shielding his eyes from the light, and squinted at the sun.
People with superpowers often have more acute senses than ordinary people, and at the same time, they are often more resistant to various harsh environments than ordinary people.
They were simultaneously endowed with a keen sense of danger and a higher chance of survival.
The temperature was so high that both she and Xiao Jiming felt uncomfortable... Jiang Xingni turned her head and looked at Xiao Jiming beside her.
Xiao Jiming wiped the sweat from his brow in a rather strange manner.
Jiang Xing glanced around at the crowd and couldn't help but sigh—ordinary people are too resistant to heat.
Anyway, Jiang Xingni hates both cold and heat, and only likes to live in places where the temperature is neither too high nor too low.
The moat still flowed gently. Jiang Xingni stared at the rushing water, as if the explosion here had never happened a few months ago, and the dead people were just Jiang Xingni's illusion.
She didn't know if she would see Shan Qing.
That sounds a bit pretentious.
However, Jiang Xingni genuinely did not know Shan Qing's real name. Apart from knowing that Shan Qing had some connection with her mother, she didn't know much about Shan Qing.
"What are you looking at?" Xiao Jiming took a few steps forward before noticing that Jiang Xingni hadn't followed.
He pursed his lips and leaned over to grab Jiang Xingni's hand.
Jiang Xingni snapped out of her reverie and remembered Lu Ming again—"He's thinking about the new recruits."
She said lazily.
