The Anarchic Consort

Chapter 899: 895

Baili Shangxie’s short hair was spiky and bristly.

He had never been patted on his head before. As he raised his eyes to glance at Little Qingchen, he licked his thin lips, as if he had just eaten something.

However, such little food was barely enough for him.

Luckily, he was not in a hurry to kill.

The demons enjoyed watching the intense fear of human beings on the brink of death, rather than taking their lives directly.

This was what Baili Shangxie was doing now, as he watched the woman’s trembling back. He found the scene extremely amusing.

Nevertheless, he was still very hungry...

Feeling a shiver creeping up her back, the woman turned her head around, only to find nothing.

The man in blue was making a phone call. It appeared that the phone line was being transferred, before he finally reached the person he was looking for.

As soon as the call had been put through, he immediately lowered his voice and hurriedly said, “Master, we seem to have encountered some dirty things. Two people had inexplicably died.”

“Dirty things?” The person on the other end squinted his eyes, he was somehow unconcerned as he replied, “We shall talk about it when you guys come back. How about the goods? Are they still okay?”

The man seemed to show great deference to the master and replied respectfully, “The goods are fine, I’m just afraid that the inn may find out something by then.”

“It’s just an inn. Just make sure you hide the corpse well. It should go undiscovered for about 10 days to half a month. So, don’t worry, since the inn neither has any surveillance cameras, nor does it require any registration of identity card. You won’t get into trouble even if they found someone dead. What’s more important is to guard the goods and send them here as soon as possible. If you encounter any strange thing again, just stick the Chinese talisman that I gave to you. It can ward off evil spirits.”

The man’s eyes lit up when he heard the reply. After he hung up the phone, he asked the woman to take out the Chinese talisman from his backpack.

The woman’s hands, which were still holding Little Qingchen, relaxed a lot when she saw the Chinese talisman. A smile worked its way across her face as she professed, “With the master’s Chinese talisman, any evil spirit will simply be hurling themselves into the trap if they come!”

Little Qingchen took a glance at the Chinese talisman and silently patted Baili Shangxie’s head.

Baili Shangxie found it hard to stop Little Qingchen due to his direction. While keeping a straight face, he was thinking of making Little Qingchen pay him a piece of chocolate cake for each pat. After all, he could not just let anyone touch him for nothing.

The train station was not that crowded at night. Furthermore, this was a small city, thus the number of people entering the station was relatively small.

The two human traffickers were so busy that they had not eaten anything yet, not to mention that someone had died at the inn. No matter how cold-blooded they were, their mood was still somewhat affected. Being bone-tired, they wanted nothing but some hot soup to warm them up.

So, the woman stayed to watch the two kids, while the man took the wallet to buy two bowls of instant noodles to eat.

Due to the incident, they had to reschedule their trip at the last minute. Although there were no more seats, this train would depart earlier than their previous train by three hours. Since there was still another 30 minutes to go before the departure time, they took advantage of it to rest at the waiting hall.

The woman was completely drained, both physically and mentally. She would most probably have broken down, if it was not for the Chinese talisman.

The place that sold the instant noodles was right inside the waiting hall, but the place to get boiling water was slightly far away.

Hence, the man asked the woman to drug the two little ones. It was not necessary to put them into sleep, making them listless like now was more than enough.

The woman responded, but she did not take any action. As she watched the back of the leaving man, she rubbed her face with her hands.

They had trafficked so many kids before, but they had never been in such a mess as now.

This woman was illiterate and in fact, she had children too. Nevertheless, being blinded by greed, she only cared about her own children. She knew well that child trafficking could bring easy money and she never felt guilty, despite doing all sorts of heartless things. Why should she ever bother about others, as long as she could have a good life?

She had also been interrogated by the police before, but that was not a big deal. As a human trafficker, they knew how inefficient the police would be. Everything would be fine, as long as she swore blind that she did not do it.

She did not think that she was guilty, nor did she think that the dirty things in the inn were their karma. She simply felt that they were out of luck and entered an inn which they should not enter.

As for these two children, one of them happened to have a pair of red eyes. This made it rather difficult for them to take action.

As she had a short temper and had a harrowing experience, the woman turned sullen when she looked at Little Qingchen and Baili Shangxie.

Some human traffickers would secretly vent their frustration and anger on the kids after they kidnapped them.

That woman was one of them. She reached out her hand with the intention to give Little Qingchen a good smack. After all, people would merely assume that she was disciplining a disobedient child if the child started crying.

The two little ones were looking curiously at the ongoings in the train station, with their heads leaning together. Little Qingchen was hungry and his stomach was growling, but he did not expect the woman to suddenly hit him.

However, before her slap fell on his back, a tiny wrist abruptly pulled her hand away. Those fingers were as fair and beautiful as his father’s.

“I was thinking of playing with you for a little longer, but you humans are so foolish! Not only that you have a death wish, but you also touch my chocolate cake again and again!”

Little Qingchen who was addressed as a chocolate cake was utterly speechless...

“Even if you are dead, we still have someone else to take us there.” With this in mind, Baili Shangxie shedded his disguise as his eyes shone with a demonic light that uniquely belonged to a demon.

When the scene unfolded upon her, the woman’s eyes were wide open in utter hopelessness.

For the first time, she was overwhelmed with intense regret. She wanted to scream, but her voice was trapped, as if something was stuck at the back of her throat.

All this time, she had assumed that the dirty things were in the inn. It never crossed her mind that there might be something wrong with the children that they kidnapped.

Sharp tingles raced along her scalp when she saw the bloodthirsty, evil smile on that handsome face.

What the hell did we just kidnap!

The woman hardly had time to move and she could not even fling the porcelain-fair hand away, before a dark mist swiftly shrouded her from head to toe.

The pain was so excruciating, it etched into her soul.

With her mouth agape, she fell forcibly back into her seat instantly, with her neck hung stiffly as if she had fallen asleep.

However, Little Qingchen knew that she was not asleep. Instead, her soul had been swallowed by Baili Shangxie.

Speaking of this, he seems to be able to eat a lot.

Little Qingchen turned his head and threw Baili Shangxie a glance.

Licking his thin lips, Baili Shangxie’s voice was cool as he asked, “What are you looking at?”

“Eating too much is bad for your digestion.” Little Qingchen was rubbing his stomach as he talked. Then, he lifted his head and looked at Baili Shangxie, saying, “I’m hungry too.”

Baili Shangxie had no experience in taking care of human beings. He simply jumped off the seat coolly and opened the small bag that the woman carried with her. Taking out all the available cash, he then said in a domineering manner, “Let’s get you some food once we board the train.”

“Okay.” Qingchen nodded. He thought for a second and added, “By the way, I’m not chocolate cake.”

Baili Shangxie retorted seriously, “You are. Other people are all ham, you are chocolate cake, and you even have a milky smell on you. I can smell it. Don’t underestimate the demon’s sense of smell.”

Deep down, Little Qingchen thought to himself... Beauty Wei Wei, the little demon is a glutton. What should I do?

Baili Shangxie stood there with his petite figure, as he stuffed all the money into Little Qingchen’s pocket, who was sitting on the seat. His arrogant and cool appearance made him look like a big brother from afar.

Seeing that Baili Shangxie gave him all the money, Little Qingchen looked down and patted his small pocket as he said, “If you want to eat chocolate cake, I will ask Beauty Wei Wei to make it for you after we get back.” After all, he had to think of a way to bring Baili Shangxie to his house, since he was planning to keep a little demon.

Baili Shangxie did not reject his offer. With a murmur of agreement, he went on to carry Qingchen, who was half a head shorter than him from a seat to another one. Being a child who was just slightly older, he looked clumsy as he carried Little Qingchen, who was almost the same size as him, despite how hard he tried.

Those who were waiting for the train found the scene to be particularly lovely. On top of that, the children’s remarkable physical appearances were somehow difficult to be ignored, making them the center of attraction.

“They are brothers, right?”

“Duh, of course, they are! The elder brother is so handsome. Just look at that straight nose and fair skin, so perfect as they were painted on. So are his eyes, they are so big and bright. I think he is a foreigner, his eyes are even red in color.”

“Most likely, he is mixed. Look at his black hair. Mixed-bloods are indeed more handsome.”

These were what the man overheard when he came back with the instant noodles. His eyes narrowed instantly as he hurriedly threaded his way through the crowd. When he arrived, he saw the two little ones neither shouting nor crying. Then, he felt relieved when he saw the woman was still sitting opposite to them.

However, how dare that woman fall asleep at this moment!

Feeling displeased, the man gave her head a nudge with one of the instant noodle bowls and muttered quietly, “What’s going on? Wake up now!”

The woman did not respond at all. Not only that, but she also fell to the side as the man touched her. Fortunately, nobody was sitting next to her. Otherwise, they would definitely detect that something was wrong with the woman.

Being the closest to his partner, the man immediately understood what was going on, when he saw the woman’s abnormal facial expression.

The answer was almost certain. He tried his best to control his emotions, so that he would not throw away the instant noodles in his hands immediately.

This was because he knew that he would certainly draw everyone’s attention if he made any loud noises.

Therefore, he had no choice but to be patient first. Putting the instant noodles aside, he then reached out his trembling right hand to straighten the woman and put her back into her original position. This would make her look like she was asleep, instead of losing her life.

After doing all that, the man turned his head around and took a quick look at the kids. He planned to feed them the remaining medicine and simply grabbed either one of them onto the train.

However, he suddenly noticed the small bag underneath the children’s legs when he bent down. The bag was carried by her, why is it under their legs now?
