Chapter 565 - Absent
Chapter 565 - Absent
Lin Yi felt that this old man was getting more and more absurd. He was radiating an unfathomable presence. Lin Yi didn’t want anything to do with him, so he put the pedal to the metal. How could he be an ordinary person when he could run as fast as a car?
Lin Yi was confident with his speed after the breakthrough. He could easily run as fast as the old man, but how could this old man run so fast? He didn’t look strong at all.
Lin Yi turned the old van into a sports car, and in the blink on an eye, Mo Kongwen was gone. Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
But good things never last. While Lin Yi was waiting for the traffic light, a hand appeared on top of his van, knocking on the windscreen.
“What the f*ck!” Lin Yi cursed and was glad that his reflexes were better than ordinary people or he would have been frightened to death. How did this old man get on top of his car? Did he jump on top the split second he accelerated?
Lin Yi knew that he could no longer run away from him, so he parked by the curb and got out of the car to see Monk Mo on top of his car with a chicken claw in his hand, footloose and fancy free.
“Old man, what do you want? Have we met before?” Lin Yi felt so unlucky. Why does he have to deal with this guy?
“Nope, but my master asked me to check you up.” Kongwen jumped off the car. “There’s something wrong within your body. A noxious substance is accumulating and it will affect your body’s energy sooner or later. A bad omen will happen if the noxious substance isn’t removed in time.”
Lin Yi frowned. Normally he would just walk away from these people, but the old man had incredible running speed, and he mentioned the word “energy,” so he refrained himself from turning back and asked curiously, “You know energy?”
“Of course. I even know that you’re at peak phase golden class, and you’re close to breaking through, but the noxious substances in your body is stopping you from doing so. With such an enormous amount of noxious substance in your body, you will suffer greatly when you try to break through. You might even die from it,” Kongwen said lightly.
Lin Yi frowned again. How could this old man know his class? But when the old man said that he was still at peak phase golden class, Lin Yi smirked on the inside. He doubted everything the old man had said and assumed that the old man was a scammer.
If this man had come to him yesterday, Lin Yi would have been convinced easily, but now that Lin Yi had reached mystic class, he didn’t believe his words.
“Oh, really?” Lin Yi asked calmly as he threw a punch at the old man.
Of course, Lin Yi wasn’t planning on hurting him in the slightest. He wanted to test his skills and confirm his identity.
Kongwen saw the attack and casually defended. “Oh? You’ve successfully broken through? You’re mystic class now?”
Lin Yi flinched. How did this old man fend off his attack so easily? Better still, figuring out his true class?! This old man was no normal person! Although Lin Yi did not use his full strength, it was impossible to fend off the attack effortlessly if the defender wasn’t at least mystic class.
But who was this strange guy? Lin Yi was really starting to panic! He determined Gonggao’s class when he was just golden class, but now that he was a mystic class master, he still couldn’t figure out who this old man was.
“Who are you really?” Lin Yi raised his guard and looked at the old.
“This is absurd. You’re mystic class already, but nothing happened…” Kongwen was confused and shook his head. “My master said that you’re in great danger; could it be a lie?”
“Old man, what are you muttering? Who’s your master?” Lin Yi asked.
“Nothing, see you around.” Kongwen waved his hand and fled. His afterimage was the only thing left behind.
Lin Yi was impressed with that speed. He wanted to chase the old man, but he knew that he would fail miserably.
Lin Yi was really curious about Kongwen’s true strength, but he was helpless. Luckily, Kongwen was genuinely trying to help him and held no hostility toward him at all!
Kongwen’s master knowing so much about him made him wonder who this mysterious guy was.
But his questions couldn’t be be solved at this moment because Kongwen was gone. Even if Lin Yi wracked his brain, he wouldn’t get any answers. He stopped thinking about it and headed to school.
Lin Yi went to look for Tang Yin after the first class, but much to his surprise, Tang Yin was absent! He then called Tang Yin, but her phone was off once again.
He went to look for Xinwen and found out she was absent as well.
Lin Yi was suspicious. Did the two of them plan this? How was it possible?
Despite not being able to find either of them, he went back to his own classroom.
Xiaobo’s blood was still racing. He was excited to share his stories with Lin Yi. Just when he was about to start, their homeroom teacher came in and announced, “Students, attention, please, I’ve got something to announce.”
The class fell silent. Although, it was their break, no one dared to oppose their homeroom teacher.
“I’ve got bad news. Our classmate, Zhong Pinliang, was kidnapped by unknown men this morning, and his kidney was removed. After they got one of his kidneys, he was abandoned at the entrance of Songshan’s First Hospital!” Teacher Liu announced after receiving a phone call from Fabai.
“Whaaaat!” The class burst into an uproar! This news was too sudden. They never thought that this sort of thing would happen to Pinliang. While they pitied him, they were worried they might become the next victim!
Although the twelfth graders didn’t have free time to watch the news, they were aware of their surroundings. Horrible things were happening to the beggars, hobos, and disabled people every day in Songshan. They couldn’t help but stay on edge.
These horrible things had never happened to normal people until today, so even though they were on edge, they believed that they weren’t going to be targeted! Pinliang’s tragedy made them reconsider the possibility. Their nightmare had just begun. Any of them could be the next target of the kidney removers!
