“Does it mean you’re going to cause me trouble?” Lu Yibei muttered to herself. The woman behind the desk shook her head, while simultaneously preparing for battle. Lingtai Pure Karma armor, forbidden Spells, Goddess Beiling Seal, Little White Dog... almost every means she could use was ready to be unleashed.
It is well-known that Disasters do not easily engage others in combat; once they choose to act, they go all out, aiming to defeat their opponent and scatter their ashes at the same time.
Meanwhile, Vivian, hidden in the darkroom of the lounge, watched “Blue Yi” through the one-way glass. Suddenly, as if sensing something, her nerves involuntarily tensed.
In her eyes, the “Blue Yi” at this moment was like a longbow whose string was already taut and humming lowly; a slight release of the fingers would result in another corpse.
The atmosphere in the reception room quickly dropped to freezing point.
“Ms. Ni Miao, what are you doing? Don’t provoke her! You are not her match.”
In Vivian’s impression, Blue Yi was already a high-level Psychic with impressive abilities, stronger than Ms. Ni Miao, not weaker. Now that she also controlled that authority... if she went berserk, it was highly likely that the entire Angel Rose Theater, or even the entire Garden Street, would be razed to the ground.
Sensing the unusual atmosphere, even Nanling Yaohua prepared to assist Lu Yibei in battle.
Admittedly, her influence on the things of this world was negligible, but if a fight truly broke out, she could still, for instance, suddenly hold up a piece of paper to block an enemy’s vision.
In fact, when high-level Psychic or urban legend fight, even a very slight influence on any single sense can lead to fatal consequences.
Hearing Vivian’s warning through her earpiece, Ms. Ni Miao smiled and continued to “Blue Yi,” “This means that the guests’ lottery tickets have flowed to other places, such as...”
Mid-sentence, Ms. Ni Miao raised her hand and pointed at “Blue Yi.”
“???” Lu Yibei pointed at the tip of her own nose.
What the heck? Why is she pointing at me? Could it be... the guests voted for me?
Lu Yibei thought blankly, and the next moment, she heard the affirmative answer from Ms. Ni Miao’s mouth.
“Miss Blue Yi, although your performance on stage was already very good, your charm truly exceeded my expectations!” Ms. Ni Miao said, “Do you know how many lottery tickets you received just now? One thousand forty gold, four hundred red, and thirty-two blue. You were just a little short of breaking the Angel Rose’s record.”
“If it weren’t for the fact that the stage’s large screen backend program didn’t have your data, nor the ‘Host’ option, logically, with such a high number of votes, you could have completely dominated the entire large screen.”
“How about it? Interested in working here with me? If you are willing to work here, I can overlook the matter of you privately entering the theater today, and the remuneration will be generous. Hmm... how about I offer you double the salary of others?”
As her words fell, both Lu Yibei and Vivian were stunned.
Vivian, “... ...” Recruiting is recruiting, but does it have to be done in such a dangerous way? Also, she’s doing the work of four people by herself, is it really appropriate for you to offer double salary?”
Lu Yibei, “... ...” I thought you wanted to interrogate me! Turns out it’s a direct hire from the boss? You should have said so earlier, you made the atmosphere so tense, I almost tied you up.
“I’m very sorry, this...”
Seeing “Blue Yi” pause mid-sentence, Ms. Ni Miao realized she hadn’t introduced herself. “Excuse me, Ni Miao Granger, just call me Ms. Ni Miao.”
“Okay, Ms. Ni Miao.” Lu Yibei said expressionlessly, “I’m very sorry...”
“The host of the Angel Rose Theater earns eight hundred dollars an hour, plus a two percent share of the live performance. With double salary, you’d only need to work less than three hours a day to earn eight thousand to twenty thousand dollars. Are you really not considering it?” Ms. Ni Miao interrupted.
Eight thousand to twenty thousand dollars sounds a bit exaggerated, almost two or three months’ income for an ordinary resident of Free City, but for the host of the Angel Rose Theater, it’s actually not that much...
It should be known that William, who is currently still confined in the God Kingdom Prototype by Lu Yibei, is not only a somewhat famous rapper but also once had his own talk show on the Free City city channel.
Lu Yibei, “... ...”
This older sister is really generous!
If it weren’t for the fact that she was about to pack up and leave this ghost place, Free City, immediately after catching Paper Cicada Immortal, staying here would actually be a good choice.
As long as she didn’t touch the guy underground, staying here would not only allow her to earn a little money but also gather various intelligence by observing customers. Most importantly, she could also avoid the prying eyes of the Trademark Monster. Lu Yibei thought.
When she was on stage just now, she had taken the opportunity to observe. The Angel Rose Theater, like Vivian’s home, had no goods produced by Trademark Monster companies.
It’s good to shelter under a big tree, just like when she joined the Night Watch to avoid the hunting of urban legend.
... ...
Hearing the generous offer from Ms. Ni Miao, the strange cat lying on Vivian’s shoulder in the darkroom couldn’t help but cry out, “Hiss, such a high salary, Vivian, if that guy doesn’t want it, how about we try it too? With your friendship with Ms. Ni Miao, it shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
“Don’t even think about it, I’m not suitable for a public-facing job at all!” Vivian rolled her eyes, “Besides, that Ms. Ni Miao only wants me to be a dancer here.”
“That’s not bad either!” The strange cat said, “I see, when we exorcise demons for others, you don’t mind sacrificing your looks, so why not at the Angel Rose Theater?”
“Can a swindler and a stripper be the same?” Vivian said irritably.
As she was speaking, she heard “Blue Yi’s” words and suddenly frowned.
“Thank you for your kindness, Ms. Ni Miao. Although I would be happy to work in your theater, I may have to refuse... I will be leaving Free City and M Country soon.” Lu Yibei said expressionlessly. freewēbnoveℓ.com
“To be honest, I broke into the theater today because I wanted to find someone, but unfortunately, female customers are not accepted today... After I find him, I should set off immediately.” ƒгeewebnovёl.com

Vivian, “... ...”
Leaving Free City? So soon? Could it be that she came to Free City specifically for the tiger whale?
She had originally thought that “Blue Yi” appeared in Free City after receiving news that the Eclipse Society Elder Council had been attacked and lost contact, and that she was preparing to rise again and expand her Lan Yi Party using the “free soil” of Free City.
But now that she heard “Blue Yi” was leaving soon, she felt that “Blue Yi’s” appearance in Free City was most likely for her authority.
“Oh? Looking for someone, who?” Ms. Ni Miao asked curiously.
“Yu Yinchuan, the one who previously cast a large number of lottery tickets for Miss Annie.” Lu Yibei sighed silently, as if in great distress. “He is my subordinate, a member of the Lan Yi Party, and also someone an elder entrusted me to look after, somewhat like a younger brother.”
“Previously, I was busy dealing with my own affairs and didn’t know how he got into trouble. The last message I received from him was a distress signal he sent me when he was abducted by the Black Hand Mafia. °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° I traced him all the way here...”
“You should understand, right? That feeling of urgently wanting to find your younger brother when you know he’s been abducted and his destination is a striptease theater. Uh, sorry, I didn’t mean to say anything bad about the Angel Rose Theater.”
As if something came to mind, Ms. Ni Miao’s eyes dimmed for a moment, then she nodded, “I understand.”
“Of course, you saw the situation just now, he’s not in danger. However, I’m also not very clear why he’s getting along so well with those Black Hand Mafia members.” Lu Yibei added, “If you don’t mind, I’ll take him with me later.”
In her opinion, as long as she didn’t touch the guy under the Angel Rose Theater, there would be no substantial conflict with Ms. Ni Miao. So, after Ms. Ni Miao showed kindness to her, she chose to tell the truth.
After all, sincerity is the best ultimate move!
Although only eighty percent of what she said was true...
“Haha!” Hearing “Blue Yi’s” words, Ms. Ni Miao laughed out loud. She then remembered what Vivian had asked her to do, but it was clear that she hadn’t had time to ask for details before “Blue Yi” had already confessed most of it herself.
The relationship with Yu Yinchuan, why they appeared here, and what was going on with their Alchemy prosthetics... these were probably all the questions Vivian had asked her to inquire about Blue Yi.
Of course, she also had her own questions to ask—why was Yu Yinchuan still alive? She just didn’t know how to ask.
“Hmm, when I was on the first floor, I noticed that both of you were wearing Alchemy prosthetics of the same style, except for the color scheme, and I even speculated about your relationship!”
“They should have been exactly the same, before being parasitized by that strange polyhedral object...” Lu Yibei muttered to herself, then raised her hand and waved it at Ms. Ni Miao, “Are you talking about this?”
“Ms. Ni Miao, your observation skills are truly excellent! This is the standard configuration for our core members of the Lan Yi Party; every member has one. If you like it, I can prepare a pair for you later?”
“Me? No need for me.” Ms. Ni Miao shook her head and said with a wry smile, “This body of mine can no longer withstand more modifications.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yibei’s gaze unconsciously drifted towards her body, which resembled a crescent moon.
When she entered the reception room, she had already noticed the abnormality of Ms. Ni Miao’s body, but at that time, the atmosphere had been pulled to rock bottom by a single sentence from Ms. Ni Miao, and she hadn’t had time to look closely.
Now, looking closely, the extent of Ms. Ni Miao’s body modification was indeed a bit exaggerated.
It was the first time she had seen a Psychic who looked more like a urban legend than many actual urban legend.
From the information provided by Nameless Book, she had already seen that in M Country, in addition to drawing Spirit Marks to obtain Ling Neng, some Psychic would choose to implant urban legend tissues and modify their bodies...
This was a simpler and cheaper method than drawing Spirit Marks, but the price was localized tissue changes, giving a distinct feeling of “the poor rely on mutation.”
“Then you may leave, Miss Blue Yi. If Mr. Yu Yinchuan does not object, you may also take him with you.”
Just as Lu Yibei was secretly sizing up Ms. Ni Miao, Ms. Ni Miao’s voice drifted into her ears.
“Ah?” She was stunned for a moment, “You’re... you’re just letting me go like that?”
“Otherwise?” Ms. Ni Miao shrugged, “After all, you haven’t caused any substantial damage to the theater, and you even helped me make a small profit tonight. However, before you leave, remember to return William to me. Since you’re not willing to work here, I’ll still need a qualified host.”
“Are you really letting me go?” Lu Yibei asked skeptically.
She found it a bit unbelievable that she had gotten away so easily.
Even if sincerity was the best ultimate move, it shouldn’t be enough for one ultimate move to instantly defeat someone, right?
“Really.” Ms. Ni Miao nodded.
“You won’t find a dense array of dark muzzles pointed at my head as soon as I step out, will you?”
“No.”
“What about outside the theater then? Will there be hundreds of axe-wielding assassins ambushing me?”
“Axe-wielding assassins are...?” Ms. Ni Miao was getting a bit impatient with the questions. “Tsk, are you going or not?”
“Going, of course, I’m going right away!” Lu Yibei said repeatedly, then quickly walked towards the door. However, she had only taken a few steps when she heard Ms. Ni Miao’s call.
“Wait!”
Turning around, she saw Ms. Ni Miao opening her arms and smiling at her, saying, “Miss Blue Yi, my promise just now is still valid. If you are willing to work for me, the doors of the Angel Rose Theater will always be open for you.”
Lu Yibei, “... ...”
