This thought entered song qingxiao’s mind, and she was so shocked that her hair stood up.
The song family’s house was located in the chaotic area of the western suburbs. It was a ‘welfare house’ that the government had assigned to the poor to rent at a low price.
Such houses were usually very old and dilapidated. They were dilapidated houses that had not been demolished for many years and were just being used again.
Although there were many fights and crimes in the western suburbs, those who wanted to commit crimes would rarely pick this kind of ‘welfare house’. People who lived in this kind of dilapidated house would usually not be able to get anything out of it.
Song qingxiao’s father had disappeared due to a huge debt in his early years. Although she was unable to pay back the principal, she had always tried to pay back the interest as much as possible. This was also an important reason why the song family could survive in the western suburbs for many years, even though they were often harassed.
These people usually came in the day to paint and lock the door, and rarely appeared in the middle of the night.
She didn’t know who had appeared outside the door at this time. If it was during normal times, it would be fine, but with her current strength, after killing someone in the trial space, she might not be afraid of any trouble.
However, as she was strengthening her body tonight, it was difficult for her to even turn over due to the intense pain all over her body, let alone do anything else.
‘Dong Dong Dong’, the sound of someone knocking on the door could be heard. After these knocks, the surroundings fell into a strange silence, as if the person outside the door was also listening to the movements inside the door after knocking.
Song qingxiao’s forehead was covered in sweat. She struggled to move her arm and tried to reach for the dagger on her waist.
“Is anyone there?”
The people outside waited for a moment, and as if they didn’t hear any sound from inside, a man lowered his voice and asked.
“It doesn’t seem like there’s anyone.”
Another man’s trembling voice continued. The locked door was pushed open, and the iron chain locked on the door made a clattering sound, which was particularly harsh in the night.
There were two people outside! The two of them did not seem to have any scruples. They were not afraid of waking up the person inside when they pushed the door open at night.
“Impossible, there’s a mother and a daughter living here.”
The man who spoke first was silent for a while before he retorted, ‘”‘He should be sleeping.”
After these two sentences, the outside fell silent again.
Song qingxiao tried her best to move her arms and legs. There was no more talking outside, but that didn’t make her feel at ease.
About five or six minutes later, she heard the sound of someone moving things. A hoarse male voice said, “”Hurry up and get things done.”
As soon as the man’s voice fell, the sound of a lid being opened could be heard, and a faint smell of gasoline entered her nose through the gap in the room.
These few minutes felt like years to song qingxiao. The pain in her body was gradually fading. She moved her fingers with difficulty and felt the strength gradually returning to her body. She lay down for a moment and heard the trembling male voice outside the door.
“Brother mai, are you sure you’ll be fine?”
“What’s the problem?”
The man who was called ‘brother mai’ by the trembling man asked in a hoarse voice,” there’s a mother and a daughter living here. They’re in debt, and there’s no man in the house. Killing them is like stepping on an ant. He paused for a moment, then continued,” besides, this is the western suburbs, the ‘slums’. It’s common for people to die Here.
As he said this, song Qing, who was in the room, slowly sat up with her trembling hands on the bed.
“Even if something were to happen and the police were called, the guards might not be willing to come at this time. By the time someone comes tomorrow morning, this place won’t be burnt to ashes. Even if we dig out the corpses, I’m afraid they won’t be able to recognize the person.”
Perhaps he thought that the people in the room were not to be feared, so the man who spoke said a few more words,”
I just recognized him. There are so many cases like this in the western suburbs. There are so many of them in the file Department of the police station. Who’s going to take care of them? ”
Song qingxiao sat on the bed. Under the night sky, her eyes were as calm as water. She could hear the conversation between the two clearly, but she was not surprised.
She was not in a hurry to deal with the trouble outside. Instead, she clenched her fists and felt the wonderful changes in her body. With the fourth strengthening, her physique had advanced again. The 400 points she had spent had turned into more abundant power than before, dormant in her body.
After her body had entered the fourth rank, her divine sense seemed to have expanded again, and her spiritual power had greatly increased.
It was as if everything around her was covered in the range of her perception. She tried to explore the inspiration she got from the ‘draw the ground as a prison’ spell of the ‘Lin’ character technique and expanded the range of this ‘confinement defense’ again and again. She no longer restricted her spiritual power to form a domain, but let it go and regarded it as her own senses and eyes.
She could ‘see’ that Tang Yun was still sleeping in the room next door with a bottle of wine in her arms. She could ‘smell’ the faint smell of gasoline in the air.
She used her mental power to the extreme at this time. With the existence of her mental power, she could ‘see’ the two wretched figures hiding under the roof following the smell of gasoline. She slowly opened her eyes.
Song qingxiao felt that every step she took on the ground was different from before.
Every inch of muscle in her body moved the moment she moved, making her body light and agile. Even if she did not deliberately restrain herself, she did not make a sound when she took each step on the ground.
She opened the door, but the two people talking outside did not notice the subtle sound. When she stood behind the living room door, she saw the shadows of two men through the gap of the window that was nailed with wooden strips.
If it was in the past, she would probably be trembling in fear and not dare to make a sound.
But at this moment, she reached out for the handle of the door and twisted it gently.
The lock had not been opened for a long time. Ever since the song family had started to collect debts, the main door had been nailed with a thin iron chain from the outside. After the lock was added, she and Tang Yun did not go in and out through the main door.
The lock had already rusted. When she twisted it open, the door lock made a harsh squeak.
The two men who were talking outside were stunned when they heard the sound.
“Who is it?”
The man called ‘brother mai’ asked warily. Song Qing unlocked the door and pulled it open a crack. The moonlight shone in through the door, and the iron chain on the door clanked as it was pulled.
The dust on the ground was pushed open by the door, floating in the air under the moonlight. Song Qing pulled the door open even more, reached out, and pulled a thin iron chain!
To her, these chains would have required sharp tools and all her strength to cut. However, now that she was pulling them with one hand, they broke and fell to the ground, hitting the door and making clanging sounds.
“Did I interrupt your conversation?” She opened the door and saw two extremely surprised men outside. One of them was in his early thirties, and the other was in his mid-twenties. The older man had a cigarette in his hand, and the younger man had a lighter in his hand.
The moment they saw song qingxiao, their eyes widened as if they had not recovered from the shock of her suddenly opening the door..
