Chapter 549 No One Is Innocent
Minister Gao said in a heavy tone, "Of course I don't mean to blame only innocent people.""From the grassroots to the top, the world has become so chaotic now, and no one is innocent."
"If we must discuss evil, those who hold power must have committed more evil than ordinary people, because they are often the ones who decide the current situation."
Minister Gao spoke a lot of discouraging words, and the atmosphere in the car was unprecedentedly depressed.
It was really hard for Ranran to imagine what had happened to the Non-Investigation Bureau during the time she was away, and why the morale in the bureau had dropped to such a low level.
But it seems... it's not hard to imagine...
Ran Ran could see the scene of the weak drawing their knives against the weaker ones just by looking out the car window. Just like Shen Dinghai said, it was impossible to handle it all, there were too many.
Those kids were not alone.
If all you see is scenes like this, no matter how much hope you have, it will be suppressed and shattered.
What is the difference between such a world and purgatory?
Heicha and Baizhu observed Ranran's emotions. Heicha quietly reached out and held Ranran's hand, while Baizhu sighed and pressed the button on the headset.
"Send someone to check the situation in the XX block where the vehicle just passed. The most important thing is..."
"Save the youngest child, and temporarily take the other children to the police station."
After Bai Lian finished speaking, the expression on Ran Ran's face became visibly relaxed.
"If we turn a blind eye to the disaster before our eyes..." Ran Ran pulled the corners of his mouth expressionlessly, "I don't think we can save the so-called 'big trend'."
After she finished speaking, she sat alone at the end of the car, facing Minister Gao and the others in silence.
Ranran did not express that she disagreed with everyone or had a different stance. She just needed time to calm down.
The group of people sitting opposite her were already the most familiar people to her in the world.
If even they become completely unfamiliar, Ran Ran feels that... she is probably not really prepared to face the changes in the world...
That damn bastard Yunkong was right.
The black car was driving forward rapidly in silence. Suddenly, the driver stepped on the brakes, and the friction between the tires and the ground made a harsh and intense sound.
"Is there a situation?!" Minister Gao looked out the window warily, and his whole body was in a defensive posture. Hei Cha and Doctor Bai were the same. Even Zhong Ning and Shen Dinghai, who were not good at fighting, were observing their surroundings vigilantly.
The driver replied calmly and methodically.
"There are eight people on the opposite side, led by two old men."
Heicha quickly looked at Ranran and whispered, "Stand between us." But his hands made a gesture for Ranran to squat on the ground to avoid being exposed.
Ran Ran did as he was told cautiously.
The next second, a sharp object suddenly broke through the car window.
The shiny glass fragments splashed like water, and everyone subconsciously put out their hands to cover their faces, and most importantly, to protect their eyes.
If your eyesight is impaired, it might be worse than losing an arm.
Thanks to Heicha's instructions, Ranran perfectly avoided the glass fragments, so she could clearly see what the object was that attacked the black car.
A very thick vine, withered yellow in color.
Ranran frowned and instantly recognized that the vine came from an old acquaintance - Jiang Yingxue.
At this moment, the vines were winding and spreading inside the car like snakes, and in the blink of an eye, the withered yellow branches and leaves spread all over the entire interior of the car.
Upgraded?
Ran Ran did not ignore that the first moment the withered yellow vines pierced into the black car, the place it aimed at was right in the middle of the five people.
That was the place where Heicha pretended to ask her to stand.
The attack was directed at her, with great accuracy, as the vines broke through the five-man circle without hurting any of them.
At the same time, a cold voice sounded outside the car window. "Missed the target."
"But... there was indeed a sixth person in the car."
Before she finished her words, Ranran noticed with her sharp eyes that all the blades in the car had slightly turned their directions and pointed the tips of the blades at her.
Even the detection function has evolved... What has Jiang Yingxue experienced since leaving Sacred Heart Hospital...
Since she knew that she was the target, Ranran would naturally not act rashly and expose herself.
Minister Gao recovered from the shock and said, "It's those rats from the Dawnbreaker Association again?!"
He immediately put his hand on Zhong Ning's shoulder and said, "Let go of the leaves, right? I will freeze you all into ice slag today!"
Zhong Ning nodded immediately, but before the amplification area could be expanded, Shen Dinghai took a step forward.
He curled his lips and sneered, "It's just a broken vine, Minister Gao, you don't even need to take action!"
"Little Leaf! It's up to you!"
Ranran didn't know where he took out the big leaf from, and he didn't have any storage space like the small cloth bag.
He just swung it forward, and the originally ordinary leaf immediately began to swell.
Like a piece of slime jelly that keeps getting bigger.
The scene before her reminded Ranran of the king insect she saw in the Gem Flower City, except that the big leaf was much more beautiful than the king insect.
Everyone only heard a "bang" sound, and the huge green jelly cracked into many cracks all over its body. In an instant, tiny and dense sharp teeth grew out of those cracks. As the jelly body shook, each crack with sharp teeth flew towards the withered yellow leaves all over the car.
As soon as a crack opened, the small serrated teeth tore off a handful of leaves.
It looks like a slime punching everywhere, or like many violent silkworms eating mulberry leaves, except that the small leaves are actually a collection of many silkworms.
The picture was no longer beautiful in an instant. Ranran blinked her eyes. She could no longer tell which one was more unpleasant to the eye, the king insect or the little leaf.
As the "click" sound continued to ring out in the car, Minister Gao made a "huh" sound in disgust.
"Shanhai, why is this move of yours so disgusting!"
Shen Dinghai was embarrassed and helpless, "This was not my instruction. Little Leaf was free to play... I didn't expect it to turn out like this..."
Hearing this, the green jelly that was struggling to eat the dry leaves stopped for a moment, mumbled something, and then continued.
Shen Dinghai had no choice but to beg for mercy: "I don't mean to blame you, we all know that this is the most efficient way, you are right."
"It's the same principle as how long one's mouth can eat."
There was a flash of surprise in Ranran's eyes. Without her knowing, her second nephew and Xiao Ye had already developed such a tacit understanding.
And she remembered that the last time Xiao Ye turned into a slime jelly form, her body was not this big. Now it almost filled the entire car.
The little leaf also became stronger.
Shen Dinghai felt Ranran's gaze and immediately smiled foolishly.
"Xiao Ye Zi and Xiao Yu are both gifts from you, my cousin, so I must treat them well."
"Ever since Little Leaf recovered from his injury, Dad has been feeding him eight meals a day without stopping. Now he has grown into a plump and green man!"
Heicha shook his head at Ranran, signaling her to keep quiet, and at the same time asked Shen Dinghai not to talk to him anymore.
Ranran didn't quite understand. If it was Jiang Yingxue standing outside, even if her abilities had evolved, she would still not be a match for Minister Gao and the others.
Instead of facing the enemy head-on, they hide and conceal their existence...
Hei Cha seemed to understand what she was thinking.
"It doesn't matter if these eight people are targeting you. The trouble is the people behind them."
