Free Web Novel"Name?"
"William Nord..."
"Gender?"
After Lu Yibei asked this question, Nanling Yaohua's eye twitched slightly, and she raised her small notebook.
【Is there any need to ask that? He's clearly a male.】
"Xiao Hua, you don't understand. In this cursed place, Free City, there are so many ways to play! A few years ago, there were already over ninety genders, and now it must have exceeded a hundred." Lu Yibei said.
No sooner had she spoken than William replied.
"Daingender..."
Nanling Yaohua was still writing something in her small notebook. Hearing William's answer, she paused, put down her pen, and turned to look at Lu Yibei with a puzzled expression.
"Uh, this thing... I remember it's a gender related to secrecy or mystery, a gender that makes one feel like it can never be fully revealed? Just think of it as the name of a Calamity level urban legend, something that can only be understood, not spoken." Lu Yibei explained in a low voice.
After a pause, she looked at William and continued, "Very good, William. From today onwards, you are a low-level mole for the Lan Yi Party. I will let you go later. When night comes, if Ni Miao contacts you and asks you to work at the Angel Rose Theater, you must refuse her first..."
"Refuse?" Confusion appeared in William's eyes.
"Of course you have to refuse!" Lu Yibei glared at William. "Not only do you have to refuse, but you also have to show fear, panic, and an unstable emotional state. That shouldn't be difficult for a professional actor like you, right?"
For most people, going to work or school, even with a headache or fever, makes them want to ask for leave, let alone after just experiencing a violent kidnapping.
A normal person who has just experienced a kidnapping, been caught and locked in a dark room all night, would hardly be in the mood to go to work or school.
Since they wanted to plant a mole in the Angel Rose Theater, they certainly couldn't let the theater staff become suspicious! Lu Yibei thought.
"However! Besides going to work as usual, you also have to help me with something..."
"No problem!" Before Lu Yibei could finish speaking, William patted his chest and guaranteed, "For Miss Blue Yi, for the prosperity of the Lan Yi Party, I am willing to offer my heart!"
As he spoke, he raised his right hand, clenched it into a fist, and forcefully hammered his chest.
"Although..." Lu Yibei rubbed her forehead. "I just want you to help me stake out and record which Psychic and urban legend enter and exit the theater every day. I'm not asking you to repel giants; there's no need to offer your heart."
Yesterday, when she was taken to the third floor of the Angel Rose Theater and met Ni Miao, she had secretly observed. Relying solely on Ni Miao and the security personnel with weak spiritual fluctuations, even with the theater's high-strength defense system that combined technologies from various forces, it would be impossible to control Caishen (God of Wealth), whose strength among the Night Watch Guardians might be second only to the rampaging Lord Huaiyuan and Black Emperor.
The real big fish hasn't appeared yet!
According to the theory that "the murderer always likes to return to the crime scene to admire his masterpiece," that "big fish" is very likely to frequently return to the Angel Rose Theater, and might even go to the first basement floor to observe the imprisoned Caishen (God of Wealth) up close.
Although William, with his mere status as a theater host on the first floor, would most likely not even see the shadow of that "big fish," what if?
Anyway, it was a free mole, trying it out wouldn't cost anything!
Lu Yibei thought, then turned to look at the two strong men who had been brought in with William. "You two are the same as him! In short, help me pay attention to any unusual Psychic or urban legend with special powers. If possible, try to investigate their origins..."
After a pause, she added, "Oh, and if that Ni Miao has any abnormal behavior, you must inform me immediately, understand?"
"Understood, we guarantee to complete the mission!" The three said in unison.
"Alright, if you understand, then sign this contract and swallow this special Alchemy potion!" freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Lu Yibei said, taking out three prepared parchment scrolls containing contracts and three emerald green Alchemy potions, and handed them to the three men.
Relying solely on the factory reset-like brainwashing of the Lan Yi Party members was too unreliable. If they could brainwash six people in just one night, couldn't others do the same? One careless mistake, and these guys would become double agents, or even moles transmitting incorrect information. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
This kind of thing, just like labor dispatch, requires a contract to ensure the interests of both the employer and the employee!
Although these three contracts were just low-end goods scrounged from the Great Serpent God's memories, far inferior to the moonlight project contract made by the Night Watch in the name of Lord Bing, and there was a possibility of them being forcibly torn up by high-level Psychic or urban legend, wasn't there still the Alchemy potion!
Lu Yibei thought, then expressionlessly shook the emerald green Alchemy potion in her hand at the three hesitant men. "Don't worry! This Alchemy potion contains no strange ingredients harmful to the body. As long as you don't betray me, taking this stuff is as safe as drinking a glass of sugar water."
Because, aside from a little bit of "good luck" she got from Smelly Girl, it was just plain water and white sugar... Lu Yibei added in her mind.
This was one of the uses for which she had asked Ju Meng for "good luck" back then.
Although it wasn't like the Poisonin novels and TV shows that could control others' lives and deaths by swallowing, if she wanted to, she could always cause some strange commotion in their stomachs after they drank this stuff. At that time... she wondered if they would be scared and dare to gamble with their lives?!
After a brief silence, noticing that the three were still hesitating, Lu Yibei urged, "What? Didn't you just say you wanted to offer your heart? Now you don't even dare to drink a mere Alchemy potion? I see, those were just empty words, right?"
As her words fell, William gritted his teeth, took the contract, bit his finger to press his fingerprint, then immediately took an Alchemy potion from Lu Yibei's palm, pulled out the stopper, put it to his mouth, and drank it all in one gulp.
Then, he turned to the two strong men and said, "Nothing unusual, it tastes sweet with a bit of sourness. Drink it! Would Miss Blue Yi harm us?"
Lu Yibei, "..." Sour? Did it go bad from sitting too long? Never mind, it won't kill anyone!
Hearing William's words, the two strong men no longer hesitated. They followed suit, signed the contract, and drank the Alchemy potion.
The next moment, accompanied by a faint golden glow, William and the two strong men disappeared from their original spots, leaving only three crystal tubes that had held the Alchemy potion, quietly falling.
The tasks had been assigned to them, the contracts signed, and the "good luck" buff applied to them. It was time to send them back.
For the three of them to return to work at the Angel Rose Theater without being suspected, they would still need to negotiate with the theater a few times. It was better for them to be in place early and get into character.
"Miss Blue Yi, what about us? Where are our contracts and potions?"
"We also want to contribute to the Lan Yi Party!"
Lu Yibei was secretly pondering when she suddenly heard someone speaking to her. She turned to look and saw the three standard good youths of Free City—the one with the gun, the one smoking leaves, and the one visiting strip clubs. She paused for a moment, then frowned, "You... uh, let me think."
I've seen people looking for death, but I've never seen anyone rush to sign contracts and get pregnant... Lu Yibei thought.
To be honest, she really hadn't considered how to deal with these three teenagers.
Let them go? Or keep them here for re-education?
"Miss Blue Yi, please give us something to do!" The teenager in the red hoodie, seeing Lu Yibei remain silent, said with some excitement, "We are very capable!"
"That's right, we already decided yesterday to work with you. As long as you are willing to take us in, we can do anything for you." Another teenager echoed.
What can three high school students do? This is M Country, not R Country. All the skilled people are homeless. ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) Your version isn't right! Lu Yibei muttered to herself.
"Miss Blue Yi, we saw what you just ordered those three guys to do, infiltrating the Angel Rose Theater. I guess you must want to take over Garden Street, right?" The red-hoodied teenager continued.
Lu Yibei, "???"
What are you talking about? I didn't, I don't, don't talk nonsense! But...
If I could really take over Garden Street, it wouldn't be impossible to try, actually? This is also the type of thing that doesn't cost money to try, isn't it?
When the time comes to surround the Angel Rose Theater and rescue Caishen (God of Wealth), everyone outside will be my people. What will they fight me with?
Thinking of this, Lu Yibei nodded slightly, "Continue."
"Our abilities might not be as strong as theirs, but we grew up on Garden Street, so we're definitely more familiar with the surrounding environment and various gang forces. If Miss Blue Yi really wants to take over Garden Street, we might be able to help you connect and gather information." The red-hoodied teenager said.
"Although many gangs have tried to take over Garden Street over the years and all failed, I think if it's Miss Blue Yi, it might work!"
Lu Yibei, "..."
What's wrong with these guys? The previous one wanted to offer his heart, and this one is saying lines like "if it's Miss Blue Yi"... Why is each one more intense than the last?
After complaining a bit in her mind, Lu Yibei said expressionlessly, "Then you can go and try! However, until I see results that interest me, I won't give you any help."
Upon hearing this, the red-hoodied teenager exchanged glances with his two companions, then looked at Lu Yibei and nodded with determination, "Don't worry, Miss Blue Yi, leave it to us!"
"Mm." Lu Yibei nodded, "What's your name?"
"Jay, Jay Garner."
"Okay, Jay, I'll remember you." Lu Yibei said. Just as she was about to say something more to Jay, a familiar shouting sound reached her ears, interrupting the words on the tip of her tongue.
"Lan, Miss Blue Yi, something's wrong! You need to go see that Paper Cicada Immortal!"
Following the direction of the voice, she saw Ji Yunpei rushing over, her expression anxious. "Miss Blue Yi, that Paper Cicada Immortal, he... he..."
"What's wrong with him?" Lu Yibei tilted her head.
"He said he wants to see some Miss Annie, otherwise, he'll end himself."
"End himself? How can a paper person end himself? Cut his wrists or swallow pills?" Lu Yibei rolled her eyes.
"He drilled into the stove!" Ji Yunpei said with a serious expression. "Just now, Sister Xuan Ying Luofu was cooking, and he plunged headfirst into the stove. We couldn't stop him."
Lu Yibei, "..."
I'm speechless! Do paper people have rebellious phases too? How should I deal with this? Waiting online, it's urgent!
