Chapter 87 The Chase
Contrary to Jiang Xingni's assumption, the four of them were not randomly divided into two or three groups.
In fact, everyone is an individual, except for Su Yanzhi.
"Is this the ability of a space-type ability user?" Jiang Xingni stared at the scene in the comic, lost in thought.
There are three panels on one page, and Su Yanzhi appears in almost every panel.
What shadow clone technique?
In Xiao Jiming's scene, Su Yanzhi hid in the shadows, squinting as she observed the scene.
Before Xiao Jiming could even notice Su Yanzhi's observation, he had already taken a step back and left through the portal he had created.
In the scene, He Jingtong was clearly much more perceptive than Xiao Jiming. The moment Su Yanzhi's gaze fell on him, He Jingtong immediately threw a bunch of darts in Su Yanzhi's direction.
Jiang Xingni remained silent for a while.
Jiang Xingni: ?
"When did he start carrying darts around?" Jiang Xingni asked earnestly.
Jiang Xingnian had clearly observed He Jingtong quite a bit along the way, but where exactly did He Jingtong get all those darts from?
System: [Perhaps, this is the protagonist group's innate skill?]
Jiang Xingni didn't believe it.
Xiao Jiming is the real protagonist of the comic, but it's obvious that he doesn't have He Jingtong's ability to conjure objects out of thin air.
Besides, she's now practically part of the main cast, so what can't she learn?
Coach, coach, teach me! I want to learn this too!
Jiang Xingni made a mental note of it. Once the matter at the Fourth Middle School was resolved, if no one in the main group suddenly became absent, she would ask He Jingtong if she could learn from him.
In the comic, Su Yanzhi, facing the dart that was about to hit her, quickly took a step back, making a similar exit.
He Jingtong slowly walked towards the spot where the dart landed. He didn't see the person the dart hit, but only the dart that was deeply embedded in the wall and floor.
He sneered, not even suspecting anyone, and immediately locked onto Su Yanzhi.
"Su Yanzhi." He Jingtong ignored the dart that missed its target. He stepped over the weapon on the ground, and the name Su Yanzhi flowed from his lips like a sigh.
The art style of the comic suddenly becomes more refined here—not that the previous art style wasn't refined enough, but this one is especially high-definition, a large image that takes up the entire phone screen.
The artist has already put in so much effort, so it's understandable that the comments section is flooded with praise for He Jingtong.
Jiang Xingni didn't say anything, but quickly turned the page.
At the very beginning, Jiang Xingni might have analyzed the purpose of the scene, or what kind of emotion it expressed, or how she should act to achieve such an effect.
But now, Jiang Xingni only feels uncomfortable seeing an acquaintance showing off.
Does He Jingtong know that in the eyes of real-world readers, he is such a good actor?
The last place they settled on was naturally next to Song Juexiao.
This time, unlike the previous two times when she merely observed from a distance, Su Yanzhi landed directly in front of Song Juexiao.
Song Juexiao recognized who had suddenly appeared in front of her. Although she was still on guard, at least she didn't seem inclined to speak again.
Just as the girl took out her phone to start typing, Jiang Xingni experienced the same scenario.
—In the space, a crack appeared out of nowhere, which should have swallowed Song Juexiao's figure.
However, Su Yanzhi went to meet her without hesitation.
Song Juexiao, who was staggered and pushed away, just stared blankly at Su Yanzhi's disappearing figure.
Regardless of what the two people were thinking, the scene had a rather melancholic and beautiful feel to it.
[Sorry, Xingxing, I just want to have a little bit of a crush on Song Juexiao and Su Yanzhi. The mutual companionship between childhood sweethearts. Everyone thought we didn't get along, but when danger came, my first reaction was to push you away.]
[Wow, these sisters have such class! I'm just imagining how awesome it will be when the main characters find out about the bond between Song Juexiao and Su Yanzhi.]
[The omnivorous fans are really enjoying this! Oh, it's so delicious! This is food for us emotionally conflicted people!! Why does it have to be an official pairing? Why can't there be an open relationship?]
Seeing how much the people in front of me are enjoying this makes me want to laugh. Who understands? Why don't you keep watching and see if you can still keep watching?
Song Juexiao didn't have time to type, and her habits meant that she wouldn't open her mouth to speak even in this situation.
Su Yanzhi was even less likely to do that. He put on a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance. If Jiang Xingni hadn't confirmed with the system that she was the only one in the world who knew the truth, she would have almost thought that Su Yanzhi was also pretending, just to gain popularity.
—He wasn't trying to gain popularity; Su Yanzhi simply enjoyed putting on an act.
Even without turning the page, Jiang Xingni could imagine what Song Juexiao was thinking at that moment.
In short, it's not what the comments suggest—that I've been misunderstanding him all along, that our feelings for each other have never faded...
Turn the page.
Song Juexiao remained standing there motionless, but the dialogue boxes around him clearly reflected his inner thoughts at that moment.
Why did you push me away? What's inside that portal?
—The only thing that could make Su Yanzhi rush there in such a hurry is either the exit of this strange place or Jiang Xingni.
—We were too late; we should have stopped him.
A line of question marks floated across the screen.
Although some CP fans still find it hard to believe, they still want to savor some sweet moments from Su Yanzhi's perspective.
However, most of the comments were: "Wait, are you two Jiang Xingni closeted? Why would you think of Jiang Xingni at a time like this?"
[I'm truly impressed. On the surface, Jiang Xingni never appears in these few comic panels, but in reality, she lives in the hearts of every main character.]
[It is omnipresent in every cell by being absent]
The next page tells the story of Jiang Xingni's experience. Originally, Song Juexiao was supposed to come, but Su Yanzhi interfered.
Upon landing, Su Yanzhi faced Jiang Xingni and deliberately struck a pose, only to be met with a disdainful look from Jiang Xingni.
—As expected, it was her here.
A line of small characters, symbolizing Su Yanzhi's inner thoughts, slowly floated over his head.
—It is the exit of that world, and also the location where Jiang Xingni is.
—A win-win situation.
The comments section was filled with lamentations about a fake couple whose lifespan was less than three minutes, while Jiang Xingni just thought about it silently in his heart.
I'm speechless. Su Yanzhi is still chasing after her.
