Chapter 149 Doubt (7)

On the highway of Gaoyang city, a car was running with very fast speed. At this time, it was normal for having traffic jam. But on the road right now, there was only a car running on it.

Jiang Qi was clenching his fists in the car. From the palpitating sound on the sky, he could faintly sense the palpitating sound from the sky, but it was still not the time.

“Excuse me? Did you see that?”

The driver in the car gulped down saliva. He hesitated a bit, then looked at Jiang Qi and repeated : “That lightning a moment ago……”

They didn’t hear the sound, but that big lightning above the sky, everyone in Gaoyang city could see it.

“Why?”

Jiang Qi tilted his head and asked softly the driver in front of him.

“I mean, under this kind of weather, shouldn’t the flight already be delayed?”

The driver hesitated a bit, then said : “Strictly speaking, you should return right now.”

“……”

Jiang Qi looked at the driver. He knew that the driver was scared. He sighed inside and asked : “How far is Renchuan airport from here?”

“About 20 minutes away……”

That driver immediately said. He looked at Jiang Qi through he rear-view mirror.

About 20 minutes away? You are afraid of driving for a few minutes?

“……”

At this, Jiang Qi didn’t say anything. He made the driver to stop the car, got down, and was about to pay for the fare. He didn’t expect that the driver would instantly drive away.

“Hey!! The fare!!”

Jiang Qi raised his hand and yelled at the driver. But the driver paid no heed and drove away.

Helpless, Jiang Qi walked along the highway, and lifted his head from time to time to looked at the sky.

When Jiang Qi wish to transform, suddenly, he stopped, because his great eyes seemed to catch on something.

At the coffee shop at his side, he unexpectedly saw Jiang Xue. She was sitting in the coffee shop, with a man he couldn’t see his face.

Both of them were speaking very intimately. Suddenly, Jiang Xue extended her hand.

Jiang Qi gritted his teeth, looked at the coffee shop. Jiang Xue smiled as if she was very happy.

This is unacceptable!!

Under anger, Jiang Qi forgot about the dark cloud in the sky. He pushed open the coffee shop’s door and walked in.

“Hahaha…..is that really true?”

Jiang Qi could hear their laughter even before he reached them. His face became dark.

“DongDongDong!”

Walking to the side of their table, Jiang Qi extended his hand and softly knocked.

Their attentions were drawn. The instant that man saw Jiang Qi, his eyes flashed a little bit of surprise.

“Eh? Little Jiang?”

Jiang Xue was slightly dumbfounded seeing Jiang Qi. It was clear that she didn’t expect this. Right now, they were still holding their hands, pricking Jiang Qi’s eyes.

Jiang Xue still didn’t feel anything, she even enthusiastically introduced: “This is my old friend, Miya Muramasa, he has returned from studying abroad.”

(TN : God, this guy’s name is so hard. His name is Japanese for sure, but how to spell it, Argggg! 宫村正)

“My name is Jiang Qi.”

Jiang Qi didn’t wait for Jiang Xue to introduce him. He extended his hand and enthusiastically said with broad smile.

“Hello!”

That Miya Muramasa also extended his hand and shook hand with Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi finally looked at this man, and he couldn’t help but say inside, magnificent!! He looked just like Kimura Takuya, blue eyes, certainly a kind of handsome man that made womenfolk intoxicated.

Thinking to this, Jiang Qi’s smiling face became even denser, and the hand holding Miya Muramasa exerted even more strength.

“Urg——“

Jiang Qi’s strength increased rapidly, going beyond normal human. Miya Muramasa certainly couldn’t bear it.

His face changed, and he wanted to force his hand back.

“Little Jiang, come join us on coffee!”

Sensing that their atmosphere was off, Jiang Xue ‘broke off’ their handshake.

……

“Commander!”

In the Night Raider base, Cheng Yu suddenly yelled. He spoke to Ding Yunfeng in shock : “That cloud has stopped above Gaoyang City.”

“What!?”

Ding Yunfeng immediately turned to look at the light screen. Lin Yazheng and Zheng Zunluo also looked at the light screen.

Indeed, the previously fast-moving thunderous cloud had really stopped and stayed above Gaoyang City.

“It is as if it is alive, and is swallowing other clouds…..”

Han Yi’s words suddenly rang in Ding Yunfeng’s mind. He slowly walked before the virtual ‘Earth’ and pondered looking.

Alive? Swallowing other clouds……

A light flashed in Ding Yunfeng’s mind. He recalled the magnetic energy plant at America’s seacoast that was destroyed. The electromagnetic energy inside didn’t dissipate, but was absorbed by the dark cloud……

Could it be……

Suddenly, Ding Yunfeng’s eyes shone. He stared fixedly at the vertical view of Gaoyang city and said to Cheng Yu without turning his head : “Cheng Yu! Is there any place in Gaoyang City that store up special energy?”

“None.”

Although he was surprised by Ding Yunfeng’s sudden question, but Cheng Yu still earnestly answered.

“Then is there any other energy being developed in the base?”

Ding Yunfeng continued asking.

“None!”

Cheng Yu spoke with certainty: “Although Gaoyang City is in the special economical area, but its special characteristics aren’t suitable for storing this kind if energy. Therefore, most of the time, most of Gaoyang City’s goods and material came from purchasing.

“None?”

Ding Yunfeng slowly turned his head. His brain was shifting in full speed. How came there was none?

“Does Gaoyang City……has a problem?”

Lin Yazheng stood up. She looked at Ding Yunfeng’s expression and asked.

“A very big problem.”

Ding Yunfeng paused, then said : “From Han Yi’s passing information, he felt that this cloud is like living thing, and it might swallow other clouds.”

“Then It comes to my mind, maybe this cloud has been absorbing energy. If this is the case, then the energy in the electromagnetic energy plant at America’s North Seacoast was absorbed, and it will be easier to understand.”

Lin Yazheng became dumbfounded from Ding Yunfeng’s bold idea, then she slowly said : “Thus, you thinks that Gaoyang City has something that attract it, something that possess enough of such energy?”

“Ridiculous……”

Zhang Zunluo sneered. He stood up and asked Ding Yunfeng in authoritative tone : “Don’t tell me you believe that this dark cloud is a living thing? This is simply a stupid joke!”

“Not dark cloud, but maybe something within it?”

Ding Yunfeng didn’t turn to look at Zhang Zunluo and only spoke a bit. And Zhang Zunluo became dumbfounded and his words were choked at his throat.

Ding Yunfeng’s words did has large possibility.

“So to says…….that thing might be a monster?”

Cheng Yu held his hands and spoke with a heavy expression.

“But you have rejected a few of my previous suspicions.”

Ding Yunfeng tilted his head, then said : “Gaoyang City doesn’t have any site storing special energy. Why does that dark cloud come here?”

“What I find strange is, there is actually something in Gaoyang City that can attract the dark cloud?”

Ding Yunfeng looked at Gaoyang City in the light screen in trance and muttered.
