Chapter 526: Chapter 492 I Understand Best

Roll over?

Everyone seemed to doubt their ears were functioning properly.

Sweet and adorable, how could such harsh words come out of a little loli’s mouth, especially while she was crying her eyes out like rain on pear blossoms?

And it was at the moment when Xiao Qi said "roll over" to the electromagnetic force.

Her body moved too.

She faced the electromagnetic force reaching her face and simply raised her little hand, astonishingly able to grasp it directly.

Then she even crushed it in one go!

"Jiang Xiao! What are you doing?"

"She’s still a child, for crying out loud, her parents are heroes fighting against the strange, why are you like this?"

"Cough, little brother, I admire your strength, but this...she seems to be only five or six years old, right?"

Faced with the trio’s questioning, Jiang Xiao helplessly spread his hands.

"Um, really sorry about that, take a look at me, I’ve been maintaining such a strong magnetic field all to allow Xiao Qi to spend more time with her parents, but I’m really too exhausted and lost control for a moment, this slip-up was my bad, I’m truly sorry."

After hearing Jiang Xiao’s somewhat sincere explanation, the crowd reluctantly accepted it.

Other things aside, Jiang Xiao did indeed use the electromagnetic force for a long time, and a minor lapse under such circumstances was forgivable.

Only Ling Zi, no matter what, could not possibly believe in Jiang Xiao’s "spiritual exhaustion."

"This little girl really is something~"

That was Jiang Xiao’s comment as he watched the little loli who wasn’t mad at him at all.

However, with this alone, it was difficult for him to determine if Xiao Qi was a Kaidan.

After all, just crushing a strand of his electromagnetic force was something anyone with a bit of strength like Ling Zi could do. If it had been an adult, it would have been another story, regardless of sex, Jiang Xiao firmly believed nobody could withstand his complete set of Awei Eighteen Forms.

But Xiao Qi was still a little girl, about the same age as Mu Xitang and the others.

Using those unhealthy methods on her...

Let’s not even discuss getting past his own conscience, the review board wouldn’t let him off either, considering they had already made seven or eight revisions at Ling Zi’s...

Now, Jiang Xiao only regretted that he should have been more forceful earlier.

Just enough force so that Xiao Qi could not resist on her own.

Because the reactions and effects of a Kaidan being injured by electromagnetic force and a normal person being injured by it are completely different.

He wanted to try another hand at it, but now that Ling Zi and the others had kept their distance from Xiao Qi for a while, it really wasn’t appropriation to make a second move.

"Ah, it would be nice if the rules were straightforward; at least then there would be a clear target. But what’s with all these damn absurd rules?"

Maybe...

There was another way to approach the crux of the problem?

After crying for a while longer, Jiang Xiao dismissed the magnetic field and let her parents dissipate into the air.

"There, there, enough with the crying. What good is crying? If you want to see them, just come back the next time we enter the tunnel, right?"

"Yes, okay...okay, thank you, big brother."

Xiao Qi thanked Jiang Xiao with her head down and then slowly made her way back to her original train car, looking back three steps at a time.

"Definitely something off there..." Jiang Xiao murmured as he watched her retreating figure.

"Come on, are you sick in the head? You weren’t this suspicious before?" Ling Zi, who hadn’t left, was quite fed up with Jiang Xiao’s current demeanor.

In her memory, Jiang Xiao was a total nutcase, carefree and a bit of an airhead.

At the very least, he wouldn’t be so suspicious like he was now.

"Oh, you don’t understand. Think about it, she’s been wanting to see her parents, and now she finally has, right?"

"Yes? What’s the problem? I think she behaved quite normally just now."

"Exactly, she acted very normally, crying so much that it even made me, a father, feel heartache."

"So you say that little Qi is abnormal, but aren’t you the abnormal one?" Naiko was at a loss for words.

"It’s just that she was too normal just now, so when she left, it seemed very abnormal."

"How so?"

"Think about it, she missed her parents so much, and now she’s seen them, and she also knows that her parents are right here, and at the same time, she knows that when the train enters the tunnel, her parents will appear..."

He paused, then Jiang Xiao continued speaking.

"If it were any ordinary girl, or say, my family’s Bai Yi, facing this situation, even ten bulls couldn’t drag them away, they would definitely want to stay in this carriage waiting for me."

Jiang Xiao spoke with absolute certainty.

Because whether it was Bai Yi or Sun Wei, that’s what they did, and it wasn’t an isolated case.

After he and Kaidan made the equivalent exchange agreement.

The three little ones and Sun Wei were sent to a special city, and all their powers vanished.

Ling Zi back then even got transported from spring/fall season to winter.

Even if she was frozen half to death, even if she was bullied by some kids, she stubbornly stayed there, unwilling to leave.

Because she believed that one day Jiang Xiao would appear in front of her to take her away.

But the reaction of this little Qi...

After the shadows of her parents dissipated, she turned and walked away, though she did show a reluctant expression, even maximizing the detail of looking back three steps for every step taken.

But Jiang Xiao always felt... it was still lacking.

Just that little bit lacking, he could distinctly feel there was something wrong with little Qi.

"All in all, when it comes to these matters, nobody understands them better than I do."

After listening to Jiang Xiao’s long speech, Naiko was already stunned.

Who would have thought that Jiang Xiao’s understanding of family affection could be so profound?

And when you think about it carefully, it seems to make a lot of sense!

"I’m going to inform the co-driver and Ling Zi right now to be careful with little Qi!"

"Stop!" Jiang Xiao stopped her, "Do you really think the co-driver and Ling Zi are reliable?"

Ah, this...

Naiko fell silent.

After all, even the existence of the co-driver was something she had only learned about today.

"I was impulsive..."

At this moment, the way Naiko looked at Jiang Xiao had completely changed.

Was this the lunatic she remembered?

"So, what should we do now?"

Unconsciously, Naiko had already started to proactively ask for Jiang Xiao’s opinion.

"First of all, the absence of rules is not a good thing and is the fundamental problem."

If the rules were complete, even though the mortality rate of the Chosen might increase, one could still roughly guess "who" was the most dangerous.

"However, we can be certain of one thing, the train driver is definitely not simple, whether or not he’s one of the two shadows, I think we need to investigate thoroughly."

As for how to investigate, Jiang Xiao had already made a decision in his heart.

That was to find the co-driver.

As the assistant to the train driver, he definitely had more understanding of the chief driver, and maybe there was even data about the chief driver on the train.

And most importantly...

The co-driver was an adult, Jiang Xiao wasn’t worried that he wouldn’t talk, or that he would lie.

Because the ancients said: if words fail to convince, use fists to open the way.

"But no matter how tough his mouth is, once I ’communicate’ with him a bit more, I’ll be able to open his heart."

As everyone knows, physical communication is also a form of communication.
