It was late at night, there was no one on the roadside, and it was almost twelve o'clock.

There was a sneaky man in black wearing a hat and a mask, and not only that, he also held a steel knife in his hand.

To say that he simply came out for a walk would be a lie!

Zhang Mingyang discovered it relatively late. When he saw it, the man was already very close to them, and his pace was still accelerating.

He didn't want to use this method to alert others.

But if they don't start running, the person behind them will catch up with them!

He had no time to call the police now, and he didn't want to turn around and have a head-on conflict with the other party. After all, he had a weapon in his hand.

There is only one thing they can do now.

run!

Zhang Mingyang didn't have time to explain to Xia Xingruo, so he took her hand and started running.

It's about a hundred meters away before we can reach the bridge. There probably won't be many people on the bridge at this time, but at least there are street lights.

He hoped that he was wrong. What if the other party just went out to buy a fruit knife and passed by here accidentally?

But the behavior of the man in black immediately broke Zhang Mingyang's fantasy.

As soon as they started running, the man in black seemed to have noticed something was wrong and started running after them.

At this moment, besides thinking of various solutions, Zhang Mingyang was also recalling whether he had offended anyone in the past month.

The final answer is, no.

At most, it would be a little unpleasant to be named a senior named Jing Zeyuan, but there is no need to go to such an extent!

Xia Xingruo didn't know why Zhang Mingyang suddenly pulled her and started running.

She thought that her junior must have a reason for doing this, so she didn't resist.

As soon as they started running, the sound of the man behind them running became gradually clearer.

Xia Xingruo turned around and saw the man in black and the steel knife in her hand!

No need for Zhang Mingyang to pull her, Xia Xingruo also quickened the pace on her feet.

But both of them seemed to have overlooked one very important thing. The girl was wearing high heels today, which were not suitable for running at all.

Sure enough, not far after running out, Xia Xingruo screamed and fell to the ground.

Due to the violent exercise just now, the fragile heel broke on the spot.

Zhang Mingyang glanced behind him, and saw that the man in black was getting closer and closer, and the steel knife hidden in his sleeve slipped into his hand.

Without thinking, he picked up Xia Xingruo who was on the ground and continued running.

There are still dozens of meters to go before we reach the bridge!

But the men in black didn't give them this chance at all.

He quickly rushed in front of the two of them and blocked their way.

Now Zhang Mingyang had to confront this man with a murder weapon.

In 2010, domestic security was much better than it was ten or twenty years ago. He never expected that he would encounter such a thing again.

Zhang Mingyang took out the change from his pocket and put it on the ground.

"Brother, are you short of wine? Brother, I have some money. You can use it to buy wine."

After putting down the change, he took Xia Xingruo and took a few steps back.

Conflict is inevitable. If the other party takes the money and leaves, then everything is easy. If there is a real fight, he will have to find a handy tool.

The more times like this come, the clearer Zhang Mingyang's thinking becomes.

The man in black neither picked up the money nor spoke. He just stood there stupidly with the steel knife, a little stunned.

Zhang Mingyang couldn't figure out what the other party wanted to do for a while.

He squatted down with Xia Xingruo in his arms and put the girl on the ground. While squatting down, his eyes were searching for anything available around him.

Xia Xingruo was a little panicked at first, but the pain from her ankle kept reminding her that she should calm down now.

Under the cover of Zhang Mingyang's huge body, she took out her mobile phone and prepared to call the police.

"Don't move!" The man in black, who had been stunned, finally spoke. His voice was hoarse, making it hard to tell how old he was.

Xia Xingruo was so startled that she almost threw her phone away.

The arm holding the phone was frozen in mid-air, not daring to move.

"Brother, calm down. If you need money, I still have money here." Zhang Mingyang took out a few more hundred-dollar bills and put them on the ground. He even took a stone from the grass to hold them down to avoid being blown away by the wind.

"If you take the money and leave now, we will never call the police."

After Zhang Mingyang finished speaking, the man in black across from him didn't seem to hear him at all, and his head didn't even turn to Zhang Mingyang, who was squatting next to the hundred-dollar bill.

"Teacher Bai, you are the last light in my life and my hope. I came today just to take a peek at you from a distance, but I ended up seeing you and this beast together. Do you know how sad I am?

?”

As soon as these words came out, both Zhang Mingyang and Xia Xingruo were stunned.

What is this?

"Are you also a fan of mine? Calm down first. If you have anything to say, we can sit down and have a chat." Xia Xingruo held down her trembling hand and forced her voice to sound softer.

She didn't understand why she had such a book fan, but she hoped that in this way, she could stabilize the other person's emotions first.

But the man in black didn't seem to hear what Xia Xingruo said and continued to talk to himself.

"Teacher Bai, you must have been forced by this beast, right? Teacher Bai is a goddess. How could a goddess fall in love with a mortal? People like me are only qualified to take a peek from a distance!"

The man in black became more and more excited as he spoke, his body trembled slightly, and his footsteps continued to approach Xia Xingruo.

"I know you are being forced. I will help you kill him now. I don't know how to do anything else. I am best at killing people. I will help you kill him now..." The man in black murmured.

Talk to yourself.

"Kill him for you!"

The man in black suddenly increased his speed, picked up the steel knife in his hand and swung it at Zhang Mingyang.

The incident happened so suddenly that Xia Xingruo had no time to react and could only watch as the steel knife got closer and closer to his junior.

Zhang Mingyang had been squatting on the ground observing the actions of the man in black. The moment he exploded, he no longer hesitated, picked up the stone used to press the hundred-dollar bills and rushed towards him.

At first he thought it was a robbery and all he had to do was give him money.

But later I found out that the other person was a madman. Normal people can't reason with a madman.

Every muscle in his body was tense, and he was highly focused. He had been exercising every day for the past month, as if he was preparing for this moment.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He first dodged the steel knife, and at the same time jumped up from below, and smashed the stone in his hand towards the face of the man in black.

The man in black seemed to have reacted. Before he was hit, he threw the steel knife in his hand.

Zhang Mingyang had no choice but to bite the bullet and hit him.

In the dark night, blood splattered everywhere.

After being hit, the man in black stood there and shook for a few times.

Adhering to the principle of doing things to the best of his ability, Zhang Mingyang picked up a stone and shined it on his head again.

This time the man in black finally stopped struggling and fell to the ground motionless.

The sunglasses were smashed directly by Zhang Mingyang, revealing the sunken eyes underneath, which was very scary.

Zhang Mingyang was worried and kicked the steel knife far away, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Xingruo sat there and covered her mouth. She was so frightened that she couldn't even make a sound.

Several golden beans were connected in a string and fell silently.

The moment the steel knife flew out, her fear reached its peak. She couldn't even imagine it.

What would she do if something happened to her junior classmate because of her?

She will never forgive herself in her whole life.

Zhang Mingyang didn't forget about business. He first called 110, looked at his bleeding arm, and then called 120.

Probably because he had finished drinking, the blood had stained his clothes red, but he felt no pain.

The moment the steel knife flew out, he narrowly avoided the vital point, but still bruised his shoulder.

"It's so abominable! I'm not very skilled in using this body yet." Zhang Mingyang squatted next to Xia Xingruo, covered his injured left arm and shouted: "Ah, the power of the king, my power of the king!"

It was obviously him who was hurt, but in the end it was him who comforted her.

Xia Xingruo's body finally regained some strength. She stretched out her arms to hug Zhang Mingyang and kept saying: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Zhang Mingyang also moved closer to Xia Xingruo, reaching out and caressing the girl's back: "Okay, am I okay?"

The girl still only repeats she is sorry.

This was the first time she was so afraid of losing someone.

"Sister Ruoruo, please be gentle, it hurts..."
