章 17: Murderer
"Let me ask you a question. Do you already have a girlfriend?"
Xiang Kun was a little confused when he saw Baona's message. Although it was just text, he could already feel the anger in the other party's tone.
What was going on? Could it be that Baona had fallen for him?
Xiang Kun felt that it was unbelievable. Although he looked much younger and more energetic than before after the mutation, and his body had turned from fat to muscular after the two mutations, he was still not considered handsome. His facial features were still there. He was not handsome at all, not to mention he had a bald head.
Although they had a good chat in the cafe, Xiang Kun was not so confident that he could win Baona's heart.
Could it be that after his body underwent a few mutations, there were some abilities that he did not realize, such as the attraction to the opposite sex?
Xiang Kun replied on WeChat.
Even though he had no intention of dating now, he couldn't let the other party misunderstand that he already had a girlfriend. He wanted Chang Bin and Wang Han to introduce him.
So his reply was: "Of course not. Why do you ask?"
A few seconds later, Baona sent another message. "Or do you have a boyfriend?"
When he saw the message, Xiang Kun's first reaction was that she had typed the wrong message. However, he immediately understood what she meant and could not help but frown.
"My sexual orientation is normal!"
Tang Baona said, "That's because I'm not good-looking and doesn't suit your taste?"
Xiang Kun said, "You're very good-looking."
Baona said, "Was that when we met before? Was I rude and had a bad personality?"
Xiang Kun replied, "No."
"Then why are you avoiding me?"
Xiang Kun wanted to reply, "I'm not hiding from you." Indeed, he was just not invited for supper because he had something on.
However, his reply was a little harsh. The two of them had met through a "blind date". After they met, Xiang Kun, as the man, did not contact the woman at all. It was not too much to say that he was "hiding" from her.
Just as he was hesitating on how to explain, Tang Baona sent another message.
"Don't misunderstand. I'm not interested in anything else. I just think that you're a good person and can be friends. It's just that your attitude of avoiding me is very hurtful!"
Xiang Kun knew what she meant by "no other meaning". He also vaguely understood what she was thinking. After considering his words, he replied, "It's not that you're not good, but you're too good. You're outstanding in all aspects. I don't think there's much hope for us to develop further. I'm not your type."
Baona immediately replied, "Do you know what type I like?"
Following that, he immediately received another message. "What I mean is, there has to be a process of understanding each other. Even if there's no result, we can still be ordinary friends!"
What else could Xiang Kun say? He could only reply, "You're right. I was wrong."
Fortunately, Baona did not ask him what he did wrong. Otherwise, he would not know what to say.
"Are you free tomorrow night? Let's have dinner together. I'll bring my roommate along. You can also bring a friend along with you. The location is still pending and the food will be paid."
As soon as he saw them eating together, Xiang Kun felt a headache coming on. He had no choice but to reply, "To be honest, I have my own quirks when I eat. I'm more picky, so I don't like to eat with others."
Baona said, "Then let's not eat. Let's go hiking next weekend."
"Okay." He really couldn't refuse.
Looking at the chat records with Baona on his phone, Xiang Kun felt rather regretful. If he had met Baona before his body mutated, he would have pursued her with all his might. However, on second thought, if he had that kind of mentality, he might not have had a chance in the first place, just like the many blind dates in the past.
Suddenly, a scream came from the street outside the window. Xiang Kun looked down and saw a young man with a ferocious expression chasing after a man and woman with a knife. The man and woman seemed to be the couple who lived downstairs.
Xiang Kun was stunned for a moment. He subconsciously picked up his phone and dialed 110. When the notification sounded, he saw the boy who lived downstairs fall to the ground. The girl had been stabbed twice by the murderer to protect her boyfriend.
Without thinking too much, Xiang Kun rushed out of the room and ran downstairs. As he ran, he told the 110 operator about the street, the house number, and the fact that someone was killing him.
When Xiang Kun rushed downstairs, the culprit was still swinging his knife. However, the boss of the convenience store had already rushed out with a mop to stop him from stabbing anyone.
Without any hesitation, Xiang Kun sped up and kicked the murderer across the street. He fell to the ground and dropped his knife. Before he could struggle up, Xiang Kun had already punched him in the face.
The fist landed on the face of the culprit and there was a loud sound as if something had broken. Xiang Kun had raised his arm and was about to give the culprit a few more punches. However, he realized that the culprit's face was bleeding and his neck was hanging down. He had already fainted. He was stunned for a moment and stopped his fist in the air.
…
When Tang Baona and Xiang Kun finished chatting on WeChat, Zhen Er had just parked her car in the underground garage. She turned around and looked at her best friend who was sitting in the front passenger seat. She frowned and asked, "Did you really go hiking with Saitama-sensei? Why?"
"What why?"
"You don't really like him, do you? Didn't you say that he's not your type? He didn't even bother with you're still rushing to ask him out?" Zhen Er asked in confusion, "Nana, this doesn't seem like you."
"I just think that this person can be a friend! Going on a hike together doesn't mean that I'm going out alone with him. There's a large group of people…"
Tang Baona got out of the car and walked towards the elevator.
Actually, she regretted it the moment she sent Xiang Kun the first message. However, it was too late for regrets, so she asked everything she wanted to ask. For some reason, she felt like she had to ask Xiang Kun out.
Zhen Er locked the car and stood in front of the elevator. She looked at her friend and whispered, "Are you trying to use your charm to make him fall in love with you before kicking him away?"
"What are you talking about? You've read too many novels…" Baona rolled her eyes.
"Or are you starting to doubt your own charm because I've been nagging you these past few days? Aiyaya, that's really my fault! I was just joking. Don't tell me you don't know? Do you still remember the silly big guy you met at my house two years ago? That's my cousin. He still can't forget you even now… There's no doubt about your charm! There's no need to prove anything on that bald head…"
"Aiya, it's not what you think! What are you doing…"
"Let me see what you talked to him about just now."
