As he spoke, he took out his phone and showed everyone the pictures.
That was a photo of Gu Ran bandaging Ling's wound. Gu Ran had cut open the hem of Ling's clothes and then pressed his hand on it to stop the bleeding.
Lu Mingfei said, "This is clearly helping with treatment, what's ambiguous about it?"
Fingel shook his head, looking at everyone with an expression that said, "Hehehe, you don't understand. As long as I Photoshop the picture and remove the blood and bandages, then all that will be left is Gu Ran hugging Ling's waist, right? That girl with no chest may be flat-chested, but she has a delicate face. She'll definitely be able to arouse that mine owner's daughter!"
Finger highlighted the bottom line of journalism studies; paparazzi should be this shameless!
Lu Mingfei said irritably, "Heh, if Gu Ran ever brings a knife to the dorm again, I'll definitely open the door to welcome the king's army and chop you up, you shameless paparazzi!"
"Damn it, you actually acted like Wu Sangui, leading the Qing army into the pass!" Fingel felt a chill run down his spine and got goosebumps when he thought of the day Gu Ran held a knife to his throat.
A murderous glint in one's eye cannot be hidden!
At this moment, Chu Zihang suddenly arrived at the Norton Pavilion.
He originally left right after finishing his meal. His schedule was very regular, like a precise machine, and he never stayed up late.
Coming here in the early hours of the morning, there might be something going on.
Gu Ran also saw Chu Zihang at this moment. In fact, he had already noticed Nuonuo and the others who were making a ruckus by the lawn.
He was grateful for his friends' concern and said, "Su Xiaoqiang and I are fine, don't worry about it."
After saying that, he leaped off the roof and landed lightly on the lawn like a leopard, saying to Chu Zihang, "Let's go."
Chu Zihang nodded, turned around, and set off together.
"Hey, where are you guys going?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"Going on a mission." Gu Ran held up his phone and waved to the people behind him with his back turned.
He received a mission text message from Norma while he was on the rooftop, instructing him to travel to Sweden with Chu Zihang.
*……*……*
"You and Su Xiaoqiang haven't made up yet?" Chu Zihang asked Gu Ran as soon as he sat down in first class.
"Senior brother, you're really a gossip..." Gu Ran chuckled. Li Enshu had mentioned before that Chu Zihang gossiped about him.
"I'm just curious," Chu Zihang said expressionlessly, "what's it like for an ordinary person and a mixed-race person to fall in love?"
"Oh..." Gu Ran understood now.
Chu Zihang's parents, Chu Tianjiao and Su Xiaoyan, are a combination of a mixed-race person and an ordinary person.
“Actually, she already knows that I’m mixed-race,” Gu Ran said. “So, I gave her the right to choose, but… I know she has already made her choice, but she’s angry with me. Maybe I didn’t consider her feelings at the time. Anyway… we’ll make up.”
This was indeed something Gu Ran brought upon herself.
Because a long, long time ago, back when Su Xiaoqiang said she wanted to be with him, he said that no matter what, he would be with him.
Gu Ran gave her the choice, and she felt that her boyfriend didn't trust her to be there for her through thick and thin.
That's why she was so angry.
Ignoring Gu Ran during this period is actually a way of punishing him.
Didn't you want to break up with me? I'll let you experience the punishment after the breakup: neither of us will contact the other.
Ultimately, Su Xiaoqiang is also a ruthless person and very opinionated.
So for this birthday, she really hardened her heart and didn't contact Gu Ran.
Gu Ran was well aware of her thoughts.
Chu Zihang was surprised that Gu Ran would so readily admit to violating school rules.
His parents were always sneaking around when they were together, and eventually they had to divorce.
Gu Ran laughed and said, "It wouldn't be considered a violation of school rules. If Nuonuo married Caesar and then dropped out of Kassel College, do you think she would be brainwashed?"
Chu Zihang remained silent for a moment, then shook his head.
The Gattuso family are on the school board of the Peruvian Party and provide countless donations to the party every year, so the school will not brainwash Nono.
Similarly, although Gu Ran has no status in the Secret Party, he is from a prominent Chinese family.
So the Secret Service has no say in this.
The world of hybrids is much larger than that of the Secret Society, whose main job is to slay dragons, while other hybrids lead their own lives.
"Then...aren't you afraid of encountering misfortune?" Chu Zihang asked the question that was on his mind.
This question was asked based on his own experience.
Chu Zihang had a nightmare that haunted him, a nightmare that trapped him on the elevated highway that year.
He hated his cowardly self, hated that he didn't have the courage to die with that man.
"At least, I was with her with the intention of making her happy." As she said this, Gu Ran looked at her fists, wondering if her hands had enough strength to protect the person she wanted to protect.
At that moment, he suddenly longed for endless power and strength.
If his power could crush the world, there wouldn't be so many difficult choices.
So when he gave the choice to Su Xiaoqiang, he was actually afraid.
He was afraid he couldn't protect her.
Chapter 227 The Night Wanderer's Serial Murder Case
"If you want to be with her, then don't disappoint her," Chu Zihang said calmly. "You have to be responsible for her and your future children."
"I know." Gu Ran smiled. These words might seem like a lot of fuss if spoken by an outsider, but Chu Zihang was simply speaking the truth based on his own experience.
My senior brother does care about people, he's just too much of a straight man.
……
In the streets of Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, cherry blossoms imported from Japan are planted sporadically. The early-blooming cherry blossoms are still in bud and have not yet begun to bloom.
The City Hall, built in 1911, is an iconic building in Northern Europe. Every year, experts from various fields who have won the Nobel Prize will attend a banquet in this hall, and the King and Queen of Sweden will personally come to offer their congratulations.
This is the most sacred place in Sweden, and the most coveted temple for scientists.
However, five murders have occurred near the city hall this year.
The initial victim was a French female tourist. Her fellow travelers said that she had recently broken up with her boyfriend and wanted to go out for a walk and drinks alone at night to clear her head, but she didn't return that night.
The next morning, the female tourist's body was found on the water next to the city hall. Her body was disemboweled and her death was gruesome.
What followed was a series of murders, with the perpetrator committing the crimes within a one-kilometer radius of the city hall.
The most terrifying thing was that one night, the prisoner killed five people in one go!
These five people were local residents who came to explore after hearing about a murder case. They were all young men.
They were overconfident, thinking that with five of them against one opponent, they had the advantage!
As a result, all five of them were wiped out, their hearts and souls ripped out by others.
The next morning, the internal organs were being gnawed on by rats, and even the forensic doctor vomited for a long time after seeing it.
Despite the severity of the case, the Swedish security services mobilized their best investigators, but made no progress.
This series of murders, known as the "Nighttime Homeless Murders," has led many citizens to avoid approaching the city hall at night.
Office workers in the vicinity are all being asked to leave early and be gone before dark. They say if they don't leave, they're quitting; their lives are at stake.
Even the city hall security guards dared not work night shifts anymore, and many refused to work night shifts.
The nearby park becomes eerily quiet at night, causing a sense of unease among the residents.
However, there are also those who are not afraid of death, such as CNN reporters.
CNN has always been a media outlet that has no bottom line when it comes to news traffic, and spreading rumors and inciting conflict are commonplace for them.
They first mocked the incompetence of Swedish police and criminal investigators, and then ridiculed the cowardice of the Swedish people, saying that so many people were afraid of a murderer.
If you were to switch to the free United States, you could pull out a gun of justice in a heartbeat and use bullets to judge criminals.
Sweden does not completely ban guns; according to surveys, on average, about 23 guns are owned by every 100 Swedes.
But compared to the United States, it pales in comparison. According to statistics, the United States has an average of 120 guns for every 100 people.
Free America, gunfights every day, real-life Call of Duty every day, battlefield kings everywhere!
CNN, always eager for drama, hired bodyguards and set up several filming crews around the city hall, loitering in the vicinity every day.
They just wanted to capture the killer's trail and create another big news story.
"These reporters are quite annoying." Gu Ran was at a star-rated hotel near the city hall, looking at the press vans outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
He held an investigation report in his hand: "But thanks to these reporters, we found out quite a lot."
According to the investigation by the Executive Department, the killer became increasingly out of control due to being contaminated with dragon blood of unknown origin, and had a constant bloodlust.
If this continues, he'll soon turn into Deadpool.
What's even more terrifying is that this murderer is a third-generation scumbag.
The executive branch's order was to eliminate him as soon as possible to prevent the dragon clan's secrets from being discovered and causing widespread negative consequences.
If this third-generation creature were to truly become Deadpool, it would likely cause even more bloodshed.
"Let's split up," Chu Zihang said to Gu Ran. "That way we'll be more efficient."
According to his plan, he and Gu Ran would go out in the early morning to lure out the killer.
"No, I have to go with my senior brother."
Gu Ran thought to himself, if this bastard is allowed to run rampant, who knows what the consequences will be.
Moreover, this time they are dealing with a third-generation species. If Chu Zihang were to fight it alone, he would definitely suffer another blood loss.
The blood explosion is irreversible, and his eternally unyielding golden eyes are proof of that.
Before he meets Xiaolongnu, let him have fewer outbursts.
Although they won't die in the end, their bodies will definitely feel very uncomfortable.
Seeing that Gu Ran refused to agree, Chu Zihang had no choice but to go on patrol with him.
Besides the two of them, Swedish security guards also patrolled the city hall at night.
