Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

Although she had informed Li Shen, he must have been scared by her decision to act without his consent.

Li Shen pursed his lips and withdrew his arm from Xia Jiumeng with a cold expression. He turned around and walked out with his coat.

Xia Jiumeng: Oh, I’m angry...

Li Shen was not only angry, but also very angry. He didn't even wait for the elevator and walked directly through the emergency passage. Xia Jiumeng hurriedly chased after him.

"Li Shen, don't go. Listen to my explanation...you..."

As they were about to reach the first floor, Xia Jiumeng gritted her teeth and jumped down from above and pounced on him.

Because of inertia, Li Shen was pressed directly against the wall and she was hanging on him.

"Go down."

"I do not!"

Li Shen pulled her but failed to pull her down, and instead several buttons on his shirt were torn.

Li Shen suddenly stopped moving and just let her cling to him.

Did she know that his heart stopped beating when the bomb exploded just now, and the huge panic almost drowned him completely like a huge wave?

What if that barrier or ice wall can't stop the aftermath of the explosion?

What will happen to her?

Would it be the same as it was back then? Lying there without a sound?

He didn't dare to think about it and didn't want to think about it.

So when he saw that she didn't take her life seriously, he didn't want to say anything and just wanted to leave.

Looking at Li Shenxia who looked indifferent and unwilling to pay attention to her, she suddenly felt inexplicably bitter in her heart.

"Listen to my explanation!"

She couldn't help but tighten her legs around his waist, her voice carrying a hint of urgency.

"It's my fault for acting without authorization. I'm sorry. But I blew up my house because I was being targeted. There were dozens of surveillance cameras hidden in my house. If I removed them, it might alert the perpetrators. That's why the whole thing looked like an accident."

“…”

"If you don't believe me, I'll go up and use the computer to show you!"

“…”

"Li Shen!"

Xia Jiumeng was so angry that she almost died. This guy had such a blank expression on his face. Did he even listen?!

Because it was hanging on Li Shen's upper body, from this position she looked taller than Li Shen.

Seeing him like this, Xia Jiumeng didn't know how to make him calm down. Her mind paused and she became angry. She lowered her head and kissed Li Shen forcefully.

I once heard from my subordinates that if your wife is angry and disobeys you, just give her a kiss.

So she did it without thinking.

The enlarged face and the touch of the lips made Li Shen's yellow-green eyes widen rapidly due to shock. His steady heartbeat also accelerated wildly, so that his chest began to rise and fall abnormally.

After kissing his slightly cold thin lips, Xia Jiumeng forcefully pried his mouth open and bit his tongue to prevent him from pushing her away.

She even broke her lip in her haste.

The slightly sweet water stains with an inexplicable floral scent mixed with the faint smell of blood dissolved between the two people's lips and teeth. Xia Jiumeng was angry at the beginning, but later she unconsciously stretched her ten fingers into Li Shen's hair and kissed him more vigorously.

The suit jacket in Li Shen's hand fell to the ground at some point. He held the petite girl in his arms with one hand and pressed her against his arms with the other hand with a strong sense, seizing the initiative.

It was not until the girl in his arms began to breath heavily against his chest that he let her go with a slight regret.

The two people's breathing was unusually obvious in this quiet corridor.

"Now...can you listen to me?..."

Xia Jiumeng calmed her disordered breathing and spoke hoarsely.

"I've been listening." Li Shen's usually steady voice now took on an indescribable lowness.

"..."

In the end, Xia Jiumeng explained everything clearly, and Li Shen temporarily decided to let her go and went back to her home with her to clean up the mess.

Because the explosion was so loud, it not only attracted the surrounding neighbors, but also recruited the hunter colleagues in the association who were responsible for daily patrols.

"Okay, we understand the situation. As a hunter with weapons, you still need to pay attention to your daily behavior."

The patrolling hunter who came over put away the notebook in his hand.

"This is a fine. This matter will also be reported to your captain."

Xia Jiumeng took the ticket with a bitter face.

The colleague knew that new employees' salaries were low, so he could only pat her shoulder sympathetically and say, "Be more careful next time. Put those dangerous items in the armory during your vacation."

After saying that, he packed up and left.

Without the chaos of strange energies and the danger of wandering bodies, they don't need to stay long, just record it.

“It’s important to be safe.”

Li Shen curled his lips imperceptibly and walked in first.

The once warm and tidy house was now in a mess, with charred ashes and various house debris everywhere. The only safe area was the snack cabinet.

Li Shen picked up the blue metal ball in the corner and said, "This thing is very powerful."

The ice wall he had just erected didn't seem to be affected by the bomb at all.

He had only injected a tiny bit of Evol, yet he was able to create such a powerful energy barrier.

"You don't even sympathize with me!"

She was fined and taught a lesson!

Xia Jiumeng followed in with a pout.

Watching Li Shen studying the protective barrier, she said, "The chip in this thing can transform and amplify the power it receives."

"Can this be used three times?"

"What happens after you're done?"

Xia Jiumeng walked to the snack cabinet and took down her notebook. She said she wanted to prove to Li Shen that there was someone else's surveillance system in her house.

"After use, the built-in chip automatically dissolves, and this thing becomes just a broken iron ball."

She attaches great importance to keeping technology confidential.

Her fingertips moved rapidly on the keyboard, and soon the scene of her home appeared.

"Now, look."

She gave the computer to Li Shen and adjusted the surveillance footage from when she first came here. The current footage was definitely gone.

Li Shen frowned as he looked at the dozen or so split screens on the small laptop screen, showing the balcony, kitchen, bedroom, and even bathroom.

This is a complete surveillance with no blind spots.

"When did you find out?"

"When we return from District 109."

Li Shen didn't say anything, just staring at the computer quietly. He never thought they would be so crazy and bold enough to do this. You know, she has already...

Damn.

"I understand, but what you did just now was really too dangerous."

"I know, I promise there won't be a next time."

Xia Jiumeng immediately swore sincerely.

"If you didn't swear on your middle finger I might believe it."

"hey-hey."

Xia Jiumeng stopped because she felt guilty.

His anger subsided and he no longer had a cold expression. Plus, they just...

So although Li Shen's facial expression was still cold and indifferent at this moment, his voice was much gentler.

"Leave the rest to me. You can stay at my house for the next few days."

"Okay, but I've already contacted the renovation company. As for whoever installed the surveillance camera, I don't know what they're up to, but I don't think they'd dare to do it so brazenly in Linkong City."

Li Shen didn't respond, but just put his coat on her and took her away.

Those people are very brave.

The next day, Li Shen got up early, prepared breakfast, and left with his luggage.

When Xia Jiumeng woke up, she saw breakfast and a note laid out for her.

[If your breakfast is cold, heat it up before eating. I'll be back in a few days.

The car keys and house keys are in the entrance hall. It's not safe recently, so don't leave Rinku City.

-----Li Shen. 】

"What a thoughtful little pear."

However, after breakfast, Xia Jiumeng was in trouble when she sat in Li Shen's car. She seemed not very familiar with this old-fashioned manually driven car.

It seems like she only knows how to drive battleships and mechas...

However, with her extremely smart brain, she watched the online tutorial for ten minutes and stepped on the accelerator with confidence.

"Ah~~~~"

The car flew out like an arrow.

"Wow..."

After getting off the car, Xia Jiumeng hugged a tree and spit out rainbows crazily.

After vomiting until there was nothing left in her stomach, she squatted dejectedly in the green belt not far away.

She wanted to die, she was actually carsick.

No, it’s definitely not that she is carsick, there’s something wrong with the car!

How could she, who could even fly a battleship, possibly faint from such an old antique?!

However, she fell silent for a moment when she saw the two big scratches and the headlights without lampshades on the black commercial vehicle not far away.

It wasn't her who did it =-=.

Out of sight, out of mind, I just walked away. Before leaving, I called the 4S shop and asked them to tow the car over to repair it.

...

When Xiaoqi, who had been wandering around all night, returned home, he saw a broken gate and a messy house. He stepped back a few steps and looked at the house number before confirming that this was indeed their home.

But how did it become like this?

Could it be...

"Ahhh! Master! Our house was bombed! Were you attacked?!"

Xiao Qi screamed madly in Xia Jiumeng's mind through the link.

[Such a noise! I wasn't attacked. I blew myself up.]

Xia Jiumeng appeared out of nowhere and pinched Xiaoqi's armpits and picked it up.
